Chapter 87 Nascent Soul Invasion (Seeking monthly tickets and recommendations)

Li Shizhou comforted him, "Don't worry, your husband promises you that once I have achieved success in my cultivation, I will find a way to return to the Chaotic Star Sea, and then you sisters can reunite."

Even if it weren't for Yuan Yao, he planned to go back to the Chaotic Star Sea if he could advance to the Nascent Soul stage.

He still had his mind on the treasures left in the ancient sect's treasury; his Nascent Soul stage strength should be enough to retrieve everything inside.

"Yes, my husband, there's no need to worry. Yao'er is your woman now, and naturally she will put you first and prioritize your safety above all else."

Li Shizhou felt a warmth in his heart after hearing this, and hugged the beauty in his arms even tighter. The two whispered sweet nothings to each other for a while before separating to go about their own business.

Leisurely time always feels short and disappears before you know it.

Thirty-five years have passed in the blink of an eye.

In the far west, in a mountain range near the sea.

A long black rainbow suddenly stopped in front of a stone mountain over a hundred feet high, revealing a young man in a gray robe.

The young man was Li Shizhou, who had been living in seclusion in the cave for more than 30 years. At this time, his cultivation had reached the peak of the Core Formation stage, and he could break through the Nascent Soul bottleneck at any time.

After stopping and putting away the Hidden Dragon Miasma, Li Shizhou waved his hand, and a storage bag at his waist flashed with spiritual light, from which hundreds of mechanical puppets of various shapes flew out.

With a thought, these mechanical puppets spewed beams of light of various colors, blasting towards the bare rocky mountain in front of them.

Among them, three beams of light were the most powerful, with a force comparable to a full-force attack from a late-stage Core Formation cultivator.

The rest are at least at the early Foundation Establishment stage.

A deafening explosion rang out, sending debris and dust flying everywhere.

In the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, this stone mountain, which was originally over a hundred feet high, has been leveled to the ground.

All of these hundred puppets are ranged attack type. In addition to these, Li Shizhou also has dozens of tough melee puppets in his storage bag, but they are all at the Foundation Establishment stage, which can be used to surround or delay the enemy.

These puppets were all created by him over the past thirty years.

The art of creating mechanical puppets is indeed extremely demanding. If Li Shizhou hadn't already possessed a certain level of skill in weapon crafting and formations, he would have been in a very difficult situation.

Since he mainly relies on elixirs to improve his cultivation, it will likely delay his cultivation.

No wonder even a genius like "Dayan Divine Lord" was hindered by this path; otherwise, he would have had a very high probability of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage, or even ascending to the Spirit Realm.

After testing the puppet's power, Li Shizhou put it away with satisfaction.

Then, with another thought, the black mist once again covered an area more than a hundred feet wide.

At the same time, his natal magic weapon "Primordial Three Absolute Swords" in his dantian sent out a huge golden sword aura that enveloped his entire body.

In the blink of an eye, a black streak, more than twice as fast as it had been, appeared in mid-air.

If other cultivators saw this, they would surely think that a Nascent Soul ancestor had arrived in the far west.

This golden sword energy was none other than the "Sword Rainbow" divine power of Li Shizhou's natal magic weapon.

For more than thirty years, he never stopped cultivating the Pure Yang Technique.

With Yuan Yao's help, he has finally broken through to the seventh level, and his physical strength has reached the point where he can use the "Sword Rainbow" divine power.

After flying at full speed for the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Li Shizhou thought to himself, "The speed is about the same as that of a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stage, but it consumes a lot of mana, so I can only use it in special circumstances."

After flying for a while, the secluded place was almost in sight. He switched to ordinary escape light, took out the restriction jade token, and flew inside.

Yuan Yao recently broke through to the mid-stage of Core Formation and is currently consolidating her cultivation.

So after returning, Li Shizhou did not disturb her cultivation, but went straight back to the lower stone chamber.

Upon entering, one sees two purple-eyed beasts in the churning lava, sometimes diving down, sometimes revealing their soft bellies as they lie in the orange-red lava.

The two beasts not only felt no discomfort inside, but also showed expressions of enjoyment.

This place is an excellent training ground for Zijing, where cultivation speed increases several times faster than in other places.

The level 6 Purple-Eyed Bixie will soon advance to level 7, and the level 5 one is now a level 6 monster.

The two beasts unleashed a combined attack, and although their attack power did not reach the Nascent Soul level, it was not far off.

In addition, Li Shizhou's Mo Li Beast Dog is now a level six demon beast, and the single horn on its head has grown to silver.

For so many years, I still don't know what the use of its single horn is. I guess I'll only know when my cultivation level increases to a certain point.

By noon the next day.

The "Nine-Leaf Fire Lotus" located in the lava lake suddenly shone brightly.

The two purple eyes were also attracted by this strange phenomenon, and they swam over to examine the medicinal herb with curiosity.

Li Shizhou, inside the stone chamber, also noticed the changes in the "Nine-Leaf Fire Lotus".

"Could it be that it's about time to ripen? It's about the right time."

He stood up, pushed open the stone door, and went out.

As soon as I stepped outside, I saw a fiery red petal slowly emerging.

About fifteen minutes later, the light faded, and the "Nine-Leaf Fire Lotus" finally grew its ninth petal.

Just as the elixir matured, a tiny, inconspicuous pebble flashed with a glimmer of light within the cave wall above the "Nine-Leaf Fire Lotus."

"Strange, there seemed to be a faint, unfamiliar fluctuation of spiritual energy just now."

Li Shizhou extended his divine sense to search in all directions, but after a while he found nothing.

He then flew over and took out a jade box from his storage bag.

He carefully picked the elixir, placed it in the box, and then sealed it with several talismans.

Only then did he return to the stone chamber to continue his cultivation.

at the same time.

In a secluded room in a valley in the far south, thousands of miles away.

In the storage bag of an old cultivator in black, a magical artifact was flashing with light.

This person was pale-faced and looked to be in his fifties or sixties, with a cultivation level of the early Nascent Soul stage.

His body was covered in frost, and even his breath carried a chill; he was meditating with his eyes closed.

The entire secret chamber was transformed into an ice cave by the chill emanating from the old monk, and even the cracks in the stone door were blocked by thick frost.

Sensing the light emanating from the magical artifact within the storage bag, the old man opened his eyes and thought to himself, "Huh, the nine-leaf fire lotus that I discovered by chance has matured. It's been a hundred years. My cold poison finally has a chance of being cured."

With a casual wave of his hand, the thick layer of ice on the door of the secret chamber instantly turned into dust.

Upon seeing this, a middle-aged Core Formation cultivator who was sitting cross-legged at the entrance stood up and respectfully bowed towards the secret chamber, saying, "Master, you have emerged from seclusion."

The old cultivator in black stepped out onto the ice and said, "Well, I have some business to attend to. You and your fellow disciples will stay in the valley for the time being."

"Yes, Master. However, a few days ago, some cultivators from the Ghost Spirit Sect came to visit, but I sent them away. Would you like to make a detour to that sect?"

"I'm not going. That guy surnamed Wang is probably trying to invite me to join the Ghost Spirit Sect again. He doesn't come in person, but sends a disciple. He really looks down on people."

"After the old cultivator in black finished speaking, his figure transformed into a long rainbow and fled towards the far west."
