Chapter 601

The Yu Kingdom expanded, its territory doubled, and its Qi luck naturally doubled as well.

Li Rui was a Proper First-Rank.

He was no longer a subject; it would be more accurate to call him a partner.

The Qi luck added to his body was second only to Yuan Dingting and the Holy Emperor, and even a notch higher than Grand Secretary Zhang.

Looking at the Yu Kingdom's territory alone.

It was already a second-rate immortal dynasty; what it lacked was a Heavenly Human realm and a Soul Transformation realm.

Of course, precisely because its foundation was still insufficient, even with the order from Bai Yujing, the Yu Kingdom only sent envoys to pacify it and did not actually annex the Guniu Immortal Dynasty.

Looking across the fourteen prefectures.

A second-rate immortal dynasty needed at least one Soul Transformation realm ancestor and three Heavenly Human realm pillars to sit in command.

In the end.

Whether one could rank among the second-rate immortal dynasties depended on whether one had strong individuals.

"Our Great Yu doesn't have much else, but we have plenty of talent. I see Brother Li, Grand Secretary Zhang, and the Great Shaman all have the opportunity to achieve Heavenly Human, but in terms of probability, Brother Li is still the greatest."

In East Sea City, the voice of Nie Siming rang out in the Martial Peace Marquis Prefecture.

Ever since Yuan Dingting achieved Heavenly Human.

Nie Siming and Yuan Xiong often came to East Sea City.

Who told Prince Yuan that every time he went out, it was for months, and one couldn't see him at all.

Li Rui chuckled: "Brother Nie, do not humble me."

Nie Siming curled his lips.

This brother of his was just too humble.

The three people just mentioned could actually be classified into one category: "Qi-eating people," based on Qi luck.

Only when the immortal dynasty flourished would their cultivation grow accordingly.

Like the Holy Emperor, they were in a relationship strongly bound to Qi luck.

By comparison, Li Rui was much freer; his realm was determined by himself. If it was at the speed of breaking through realms like drinking water as before, wouldn't he be the fastest?

Yuan Xiong also joked rarely: "Brother Li, do not walk too fast; at least wait until we touch the Dao Body realm before you break through."

Suddenly.

Nie Siming remembered something: "By the way, Brother Li, there seems to be progress on the Immortal Tomb side."

"Oh?"

Li Rui became interested.

The Immortal Tomb involved too much.

According to Wu De's account, what was buried inside was an existence above the Dao Lord.

Extremely extraordinary.

Even Dao Lord powerhouses could not see through it.

Nie Siming: "Those old monks of the Xuanfa Temple truly have ability; they have pushed the Immortal Tomb area forward by another ten miles. I heard there was an incredible discovery; in Yunzhou, I even saw phantoms of immortals and demons filling the sky."

"The Buddha Sect is truly extraordinary."

Li Rui could not help but praise.

The Lord of the Immortal Court created the method of Qi luck, but the Buddha Sect evolved another path from the art of Qi luck, capable of reaching what immortal cultivators could not reach.

Li Rui pondered: "The Immortal Tomb is a major matter; one must always go and take a look."

He was now the Taiping Order.

Monitoring the Qi luck of the world.

Any slight disturbance in the Immortal Tomb had a huge impact on the Yu Kingdom's Qi luck.

Duty-bound.

Li Rui had always kept a close eye on the Immortal Tomb.

Upon hearing this.

Nie Siming immediately said: "Then why not return to Yunzhou with us?"

Li Rui nodded: "Good!"

What surprised Nie Siming and Yuan Xiong was that the usually steady Brother Li was extremely swift and decisive today, actually directly summoning his flying boat.

Traveling thirty thousand miles a day.

Only a quarter of an hour later, the three of them arrived in Qinghe.

Looking at the mottled city walls.

Nie Siming and Yuan Xiong even felt it was somewhat unreal.

After arriving in Qinghe.

Li Rui did not rush to go to the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Instead, he leisurely went into seclusion in the mansion in Annan Town, leaving Nie Siming and Yuan Xiong somewhat confused for a moment.

Until this day.

A slightly chubby Daoist priest came to Annan Town. "Hehe, this little brother, this poor Daoist is here to find Marquis Li."

The gatekeeper servant looked at the chubby Daoist with suspicion.

Thinking it was another stinky bull-nose (Daoist) here to play god and act like a ghost, he impatiently wanted to drive him away.

Just as he was about to speak.

Suddenly he heard a voice from behind: "Daoist Friend Wu, you have come."

The gatekeeper servant turned his head.

And saw his own Marquis actually appearing behind him at some unknown time.

'Mother of God, he really knows the Marquis!'

The gatekeeper servant felt his heart skip a beat.

The chubby Daoist chuckled: "Senior, I have waited for you so bitterly."

Senior?

Daoist Friend?

The gatekeeper servant was confused by these forms of address for a moment.

Before he could think.

The chubby Daoist had already vanished into thin air at some point, appearing inside the mansion, actually having walked into the courtyard following Li Rui.

"I have seen an immortal!"

Inside the inner courtyard.

Li Rui looked at the joyful Wu De: "Congratulations to Daoist Friend Wu for breaking through the realm."

Wu De sighed lightly: "How can I compare to you, Daoist Friend."

This was the truth.

Originally, he was happily feeling that he had broken through and become a Purple Mansion, and could call him "Daoist Friend" again, but as soon as he returned to the Yu Kingdom, he heard the news of Li Rui's breakthrough, and he knew he would have no chance to call him "Daoist Friend" again in this lifetime.

Immediately.

Wu De felt somewhat depressed: "This little Daoist went to the Heavenly Abyss Valley, but never expected that a mutation would occur there, actually completely escaping the Five Elements. I also had a coincidental opportunity to obtain a small chance, which is how I was able to break through."

Li Rui raised his eyebrows slightly.

He knew that the Heavenly Abyss Valley Wu De spoke of was a place bordering Taihua Prefecture and Zhongyao Prefecture.

It was also there that Wu De discovered the Dao Lord cave dwelling that could lead to the Grand Void Dao Field.

The so-called "escaping the Five Elements" was a phenomenon that only appeared in many Dao Lord cave dwellings.

Simply put, it meant the restrictions were triggered.

And then the entire cave dwelling disappeared directly, and outsiders could no longer find it.

Since then.

The only people who could enter the Grand Void Dao Field were Li Rui's people, just waiting for a new predestined person to appear.

Wu De being able to break through to the Purple Mansion realm because of this meant the opportunity could not be considered small.

Ever since the Golden Court Small Cave Heaven fell into the immortal cultivation world, Wu De had left, only returning recently.

Wu De chuckled and rubbed his hands: "Senior Li, I never expected those old monks to be so suitable for grave robbing. Do you think I should also shave my head and learn some of those bald donkeys' methods?"

He returned this time.

Naturally, it was for the Immortal Tomb in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

It was not that he had not explored it, but with his ability, he simply could not enter the core area of the Immortal Tomb.

Not just him.

The powerhouses of Bai Yujing and the Shenxuan Sect were also helpless.

There was no way.

The level was too high; what was buried inside was highly likely an existence above the Dao Lord. Forcibly breaking it open would definitely trigger the restrictions, and in the end, it would also escape the Five Elements like the Heavenly Abyss Valley.

By then, even Dao Lords would not be able to find it.

Never expected that he, a professional grave robber, had no way, but those old monks succeeded repeatedly—how could he not be tempted?

Li Rui could see that Wu De really wanted to learn.

He chuckled.

Just as he was about to speak.

He suddenly froze.

It was noon, the great sun hung high in the nine heavens, and there were no clouds for ten thousand miles. Li Rui took an inadvertent glance, and his heart jumped wildly.

"That is..."

On the southern horizon, he saw a purple pillar of light shooting straight into the clouds, unknown how many thousands of miles long; at the end of that purple Qi, above the nine heavens, a phantom of an immortal palace manifested.

Li Rui's pupils shrank violently.

Just because that immortal palace phantom was exactly the same as the corner of the Immortal Court within his own Purple Mansion!
