Chapter 717: The Secret of Fast Immortal Cultivation

Su Mu saw that Li Yi shattered the other party's weapon with a flick, and her heart couldn't help but become nervous. She was really worried that the two would fight here. Although Li Yi used his strength to shake the entire survival base yesterday, which shocked many people

It was just that some people were intimidated by Li Yi's strength and did not show it, while others simply had not found a suitable opportunity.

This time, while wandering around, he approached Li Yugang's residence; the other party could not hold back and made a move, wanting to intimidate Li Yi and settle yesterday's score, which naturally had its reasons.

After all, powerful cultivators are all unruly and rebellious.

It was just that Li Yi's move of shattering the other party's weapon with a flick of his finger was truly heart-stopping.

If it were merely a matter of great strength, that would be one thing.

The most terrifying part is...

Li Yugang stared at Li Yi's fingers, only to see that the other party's fingers were completely unharmed.

Having just erupted with such powerful force to shatter his own flying daggers, yet his fingers had no injuries at all—how astonishing must this physique be to achieve such a thing? Moreover, he couldn't even feel any energy fluctuations from that strike.

In other words, he achieved this relying solely on his physical body.

"Truly an out-and-out monster," Li Yugang thought to himself. Realizing the terrifying nature of Li Yi, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat behind his back.

He and this person were not on the same level of existence at all. Yesterday, when he shook an entire survival base, he must have held back; otherwise, with this Li Yi's strength, he feared a single strike would have completely annihilated this place.

"Li Yugang, I only brought Li Yi here to learn about the survival base. Even if you have S-rank clearance, you cannot just attack us casually." Su Mu did not want the conflict to escalate and immediately stepped forward to reprimand him.

Li Yugang's face was gloomy, and he did not speak.

He knew he had kicked an iron plate this time; he hadn't intimidated the other party, but instead felt uneasy because of the terrifying strength the other party had revealed.

The heads of the Four Great Families also rode Yin horses, accompanied by several high-ranking elders from their respective families, and quickly rushed to Sanyang City.

Seeing that he did not speak, Su Mu added, "Li Yugang, let's end this matter here. Don't resort to violence over a minor conflict. What do you think?"

Li Yugang felt a bitter smile in his heart at this moment.

It wasn't that he didn't want to end it now; he had to see if this Li Yi was willing. If he took this opportunity to attack, he would have no choice but to accept his defeat.

Thinking about it, he was damn unlucky.

Among the ten survival bases in the country, you could pull out any A-rank clearance holder, and none would be this perverted.

"Your cultivation speed is somewhat abnormal."

Li Yi also saw the fear in Li Yugang's eyes at this moment. Clearly, this person was not a fool. He had no intention of killing the other party, but after looking him over, he asked.

"What is abnormal about it?" Li Yugang replied.

Li Yi thought for a moment and said, "Time. Judging by immortal cultivation methods, it is impossible for you to become a Tribulation Crossing stage cultivator in just a few years. If you can answer this question for me, I will treat what just happened as if it never occurred, and I can even give you a higher-quality flying dagger."

The reason he was so generous was that this question involved Li Yugang's cultivation secret.

However, demanding someone else's secret to fast cultivation right off the bat was indeed somewhat overbearing.

But who let Li Yugang fall into someone else's hands?

If you do something wrong, you have to accept the consequences.

That is the rule.

Li Yugang's expression changed, and then he said, "Saying it here is equivalent to telling everyone. If you come to my house, I can tell you."

There was no other way; he chose to bow his head.

"Fine, no problem." Li Yi smiled, and then a cloud of auspicious mist rose beneath his feet.

Su Mu, who was on the side, was stunned for a moment.

What was going on?

Just a moment ago, they were at daggers drawn, and now they were suddenly going to be guests at the other party's home. This situation had turned too quickly.

Clearly, Su Mu had not yet reacted to what was happening.

Seeing this, Li Yugang had no choice but to invite Li Yi and Su Mu into his home.

His home was an entire building.

This is what an S-rank clearance holder is.

Such treatment is very high within the survival base, but even so, the base commander wishes for as many S-rank clearance holders as possible. After all, these are experts capable of fighting great demons, and they would be experts in any world.

Moreover, upon entering the building, the cosmic energy here was even more abundant than outside.

An existence similar to a formation locked the cosmic energy here, preventing it from leaking out, and at the same time, it was very close to the mystic object energy source.

This was almost equivalent to setting up a home right next to a mystic object.

"The cosmic energy here is indeed abundant, and it hasn't been polluted, but cultivation speed doesn't just depend on the strength of cosmic energy, right?" Li Yi asked with a smile.

Li Yugang stopped his footsteps and then instructed the service robot to bring hot tea for Li Yi and Su Mu.

This was etiquette; the meaning was greater than the function.

"Li Yi, you are right. Although abundant cosmic energy can accelerate cultivation, it cannot reach my level. Just as you guessed, the time doesn't match up, and the key is time." Li Yugang did not drag things out and spoke directly to the point.

"What immortal cultivators lack most is time. In the Profound Immortal Continent, even if an ordinary person has the highest aptitude, it takes at least a dozen years to reach the Tribulation Crossing stage. Moreover, evolvers have only been cultivating immortality for a few years, which is why we haven't produced powerful immortal cultivators and still rely mainly on evolution methods."

Speaking of this.

Li Yugang had to admire Li Yi's observational skills; with just one glance, he had detected that his cultivation speed was abnormally fast.

And where there is an anomaly, there must be a demon.

It must involve a secret.

But right now.

He certainly couldn't keep this secret anymore, so he continued, "And the reason for my fast cultivation is simple: I spend more time than others."

"Everyone has 24 hours of cultivation time simultaneously; how could you possibly have more than others? Even if you cross dimensions, the flow of time is the same," Su Mu couldn't help but say.

It wasn't that no one had thought of cross-dimensional cultivation before, then returning to Earth to cultivate using the time difference between the two worlds.

However, after testing, this path simply didn't work.

In any world, even after crossing dimensions, the flow of time remains the same.

But Li Yi had already understood at this moment. He narrowed his eyes and said, "After the Heaven Tilt, the situation on Earth is complex and ever-changing. It's not impossible for time to flow faster in some places, so you found such a good place to cultivate?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Su Mu was immediately shocked: "No way, there are such places?"

No wonder Li Yugang didn't dare to reveal this secret. If it were true, it would attract the covetousness of countless people. Who wouldn't want to accelerate their cultivation? After all, for current evolvers, time is what they lack most.

"It's not a good place; it's filled with danger. I went there with other teammates before, but unfortunately, except for me being lucky enough to find a spot that could be used for cultivation, all the other teammates died. And this is the secret to my fast immortal cultivation." Li Yugang admitted that such a place existed.

Moreover, only he knew about it, and it was filled with danger, making it difficult to set foot in.

If no one guides you, even if you go, it's a dead end.

"So that's how it is. You are indeed lucky." Li Yi smiled. He was very interested in this place. After all, he also lacked time to nurture his Primordial Spirit Dharma Image. If he could have such a place, it could greatly shorten his cultivation time.

"Since you are willing to tell me such a big secret, you surely wouldn't mind telling me the specific location, right?"

Then, Li Yi's smile faded, and he became serious again.

Li Yugang said, "I don't expect to keep this secret forever; it's already not bad that it's only been exposed now. Li Yi, I know your strength is very high, and killing me is as simple as killing a chicken. But if it's just a threat to my life, then you might as well kill me; I will take this secret to the grave."

"But if you don't want to kill me and want to obtain this cultivation location, I can sell the coordinates to you, as long as you can afford the price."

"Want to exchange resources with me?" Li Yi nodded slightly: "This is also normal; after all, it's beneficial to both sides. Alright, I agree to your exchange conditions. After all, killing you has no benefits, and there is no deep hatred between us."

"What do you want?"

What Li Yugang wanted most, of course, was the secret to Li Yi's terrifying physique, but clearly, his bargaining chips were insufficient to exchange for that secret. After all, Li Yi hadn't been cultivating for long either, which meant the secret to his powerful physique was even more precious.

Moreover, the situation was stronger than the person, and he didn't have the qualifications to bargain, so he said, "That depends on how much this secret is worth in your heart, Li Yi."

"Want me to name a price?" Li Yi thought for a moment, then took out a large piece of Red Jin Shi from his Red Gold Five Elements Bracelet.

"This is a material that can be used to forge immortal artifacts; its value is astonishing."

The Red Jin Shi was shimmering with light, looking extraordinary at a glance.

Li Yugang was somewhat surprised to see this. He immediately raised his hand and waved it, and a flying dagger flew out, slashing at this piece of Red Jin Shi.

Accompanied by an explosion of power.

The building shook, the flying dagger was shattered again, but the Red Jin Shi remained completely unharmed.

"Good stuff."

Li Yugang's heart jumped wildly. As a half-immortal cultivator, he naturally understood how precious immortal artifact materials were. And such a large piece—let alone forging a flying dagger, it was enough to forge a whole set of weapons and armor.

"Exchange or not?" Li Yi asked again.

However, he had a whole pile of such Red Gold Stones in his Red Gold Five Elements Bracelet. It was just very difficult to forge them into weapons; it required the use of a Divine Wood Red Gold Furnace to do so.

Of course.

This was the smelting method in the Savage World; perhaps there were other methods to smelt red gold in other worlds.

Li Yi couldn't be bothered to care about these things; he had just paid his money, and as for how the other party used it or whether they could use it, that was the other party's business.

"Exchange." Li Yugang agreed immediately.

In this special period of frequent wars, the role of weapons and armor was too great. And evolvers were penniless; it was too difficult to obtain treasures from the Profound Immortal World, so they had to find ways to forge them themselves.

But the thing they lacked most for forging was top-tier materials.

Earth had only just seen the recovery of spiritual energy for a few years, and the earth veins simply couldn't nurture good materials.
