Chapter 104: Skybreak Hall
Chapter 104: Skybreak Hall
[A hundred-mile pigeon from the Li family delivered a letter. Li Yaoqing paid respects to his ancestors outside the Thunderfire Demonic Cave.]
Clicking on Li Yaoqing's portrait in the event bar, Li Wei once again saw the scene of the Thunderfire Demonic Cave. This demonic cultivator's land was riddled with holes, clearly showing signs of attacks by cultivators. Moreover, more than 500 cultivators had gathered at the demonic Cave, all righteous demon slayers from the Sky Jade City region and even the surrounding regions.
At this time, Li Yaoqing was still dressed plainly, with unkempt hair and a dirty face.
However, outside the room where Li Yaoqing was in the image, there were many injured people waiting for rescue.
Li Yaoqing had been at the Thunderfire Demonic Cave all this time. Li Wei would occasionally observe her current situation. This child... now had an extraordinary identity!
Opening the character history bar.
[Year 49th, Li Yaoqing arrived at the Demonic Cave.]
[Year 50th, She kept a low profile.]
[Year 51st, Li Yaoqing began healing the wounded and became a renowned healer in the Demon Slayer Squad, often saving his comrades due to her trait.]
[Year 52, a demon head among the demonic cultivators was severely injured. A loyal demonic cultivator risked entering the Demon Slayer Squad to seek Li Yaoqing's help. She sent a letter back to the Li family, and Li Yaowen gave her an idea. From then on, Li Yaoqing treated members of the Demon Slayer Squad during the day and demonic cultivators at night, her medical skills becoming increasingly profound.]
[For saving lives, received a reward: low-grade spiritual artifact, Shadowless Hairpin.]
[Received a reward: Heavenly Heart Grass.]
[Received a reward: common cultivation technique, Heavenly Profound Circling Steps.]
[Received...]
[As She continued to heal and treat, and came into contact with more and more poisonous herbs within the Demonic Lair, the trait 'Divine Physician's Skillful Hands' evolved into -]
[Great Physician: Increased comprehension of the medicinal properties of unfamiliar herbs, medical skills increased by 100%, poison skills increased by 100%.]
If we were to say who gained the most during the two years of the great war, It was definitely not Li Yunlin, who became a direct disciple of the Skyveil Sect, but Li Yaoqing!
She reaped abundant rewards through her ability to please both sides.
Even...
[Year 53rd, Li Yaoqing concocted hundreds of medicines and refined hundreds of poisons, gaining profound insights. By integrating medicine and poison into her body, and with the help of the earth's herbs and the profound energy of the land, she broke through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment!]
And that's not all.
At this moment, Li Yaoqing was kneeling before Li Wei's memorial tablet, her face full of innocence, without any of the scheming and cautiousness she had when pleasing both sides. She was just like the child who happily touched the Beast Blood Fruits under the Beast Blood Fruit Tree back then. "Ancestor, I now know. I have a talented grand-nephew. With Tianyi, our Li family will continue for a thousand years."
"Hee hee."
Li Yaoqing suddenly laughed, "Ancestor, This child has become successful, When I save people, they all owe me favors. No healer can compare to me, and even if they know, they wouldn't dare say no to me. This Demonic Cave is simply the best place in the world."
"Ancestor, please rest assured. As long as I manage things well, our family's guardian spirit beast can enter the Demonic Cave as if it were an uninhabited land!"
A warm current entered her body, and Li Yaoqing immediately knew it was a gift from her ancestor. She was even more excited.
"..."
The corner of Li Wei's mouth twitched. He seemed to understand a little now why there were more and more cultivators around the Demonic Cave, and why neither side had suffered many casualties. "The trait 'Great Physician,' what a Great Physician indeed."
"It's worthy of Yaowen's idea."
Seeing the current situation, Li Wei was relieved about Li Yaoqing's condition and then turned his attention to the Skyveil Sect.
A location appeared on the map.
[Skybreak Hall]
Looking closely, it seemed to be a cave shrouded in darkness, accessible only to successive sect leaders of the Skyveil Sect. Yet within this darkness, countless points of light twinkled like stars in a cosmic expanse.
Li Yunlin and Sect Leader Zhen sat facing each other in meditation.
Sect Leader Zhen observed Li Yunlin's growing mastery of the sect's secret techniques, but furrowed his brow and inquired, "Yunlin, I heard you received another letter from home today?"
Li Yunlin slowly opened his eyes.
He replied calmly, "Yes, I burned it. I have already severed my ties with the mortal world. It's just the Li family trying to climb the social ladder. There's no need to pay attention to them."
"That's good."
Sect Leader Zhen nodded slightly, but still had doubts. "I heard you often carry an ancestral tablet with you?"
"Yes."
Li Yunlin remained calm, silently taking out the ancestral tablet from his inner robe and shattering it with a flick of his hand. "Keeping it close was also part of severing worldly ties. Now, even looking at the ancestral tablet, I no longer remember the days of the mundane world. If you find it an eyesore, I'll destroy it."
"Phew." Sect Leader Zhen finally relaxed and smiled. "That's very good. Disciple, you must know that for cultivators, time flies by in the blink of an eye. Only by severing worldly ties can one truly cultivate. This is the fundamental truth of the Great Dao!"
"I understand, Master."
Later that night, Li Yunlin returned to his chambers, vigilantly sensing his surroundings. After confirming there were no other presences, he entered the room, slowly lifted the bedcovers, and deactivated thirty-six layers of protective formations, revealing a large number of carefully carved tablets hidden within. He selected one, lit incense, and knelt in reverence.
"How dare that old thing Zhen try to sway my heart?"
"Please rest assured, Ancestor. He may consider me his disciple, but I have never once called him 'Master.'"
"In the few years I've been at Skyveil Sect, some elders already respect me as the future Sect Leader. Last year, when Azure Cloud City region attempted to invade our family's residence, I sent three inner disciples loyal to me to divert their attention."
"This time, upon hearing that my third brother Yundou had a son, I sent a gift that will arrive by the full moon. It will serve as a life-saving trump card for our Li family in this great battle between the two sects!"
