Chapter 123: Sublimation

"It's okay, it's okay, Little Sister Lan, I'll figure it out slowly myself. I'm really sorry this time. Originally, I should have invited you to sit at the mansion, but Li Cheng has just experienced a great battle, and it's messy inside. We have to go and comfort the commoners as soon as possible. I'll have to neglect you this time." Xia Daoming said.

"It's okay, the commoners are important! Then, Xu Shixiong, Little Sister will go first. If we have fate in the future, we will meet again!" Lan Xue not only didn't blame him upon hearing this, but instead looked at him with respect.

"Xu Shixiong" and "Little Sister" were also said very smoothly from their mouths.

"Alright, Little Sister Lan, pay attention to safety on the road. If you have time in the future, come to Li Cheng to find your big brother to play." Xia Daoming cupped his hands.

"Then, if Big Xu Shixiong passes by Qingyuan Mountain in the future, come and sit for a while." Lan Xue returned the salute.

"Enough, enough, are you ever going to stop!" Du Du Feiyan impatiently pulled Lan Xue's hand and walked away, while Bai Bai Jianpeng had already chopped off Wu Rong's head, sealed it with a magic seal, and stored it in his storage bag.

Watching the group of people walk away, Xia Daoming seemed to suddenly remember something, poured out most of the spiritual rice, carried the remaining small half, and quickly chased after them.

"Little Sister Lan, wait a moment."

Lan Xue stopped.

"Are you ever going to end?" Du Du Feiyan wished she could throw a fireball at Xia Daoming.

"Little Sister Lan, Big Xu Shixiong is just a vulgar martial artist in the secular world, and you are an immortal fairy of the immortal gate. Saying we will meet again if we have fate, in fact, after this parting, I'm afraid it will be difficult for immortals and mortals to meet again.

Thanks to you not disliking me and calling me Big Xu Shixiong, Big Xu Shixiong doesn't have anything to give you. This small bag of spiritual rice, you take it and eat it slowly on the road." Saying that, Xia Daoming stuffed a small bag of spiritual rice into Lan Xue's hand, then turned around and strode away.

Lan Xue watched Xia Daoming turn around and walk away without looking back, her eyes couldn't help but get a bit wet.

The gift is light but the affection is heavy!

Moreover, a small bag of spiritual rice, for a cultivator of her level, can barely be considered a heavy gift. In the sect, no fellow disciple would send such a heavy gift to her for no reason, unless they had something to ask of her.

But this Big Xu Shixiong in front of her, after this parting, basically has no chance to meet again, so what could he ask of her?

This is true affection!

"What is Big Xu Shixiong's surname?" Lan Xue suddenly shouted.

"Surname Xia, name Daoming." Xia Daoming waved his hand without looking back, seemingly afraid that if he turned his head, his emotions would be difficult to control.

"Sending rice is really a high move!" Liang Liang Jingtang looked at the "touching" scene not far away and stroked his beard.

"What's high about it? It's a waste of spiritual rice, it would be better to keep it for yourself!" Master Yuchi Xiao muttered.

"You know a fart!" Liang Liang Jingtang finally couldn't help but start disciplining Master Yuchi Xiao upon hearing this.

"Master, I, I also didn't see what was high about it! That small bag of spiritual rice can be cooked into spiritual rice porridge and eaten for many days. Just sending it like this, without getting any benefits, what a pity!" Zhuo Zhuo Xingji carefully spoke for his Xu Shixiong.

"Ji Shouli, you help Prefecture Lord Liang explain it." Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen turned his head to look at his son, full of expectation.

"Father, I, I also didn't see it." Ji Ji Shouli said in a low voice.

"What a fool! You all know that this is a waste of spiritual rice. With Daoming's scheming, would he not understand?" Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen lectured.

"A beautiful woman is a gentleman's desire, a momentary emotional impulse is also possible." Ji Ji Shouli said in a low voice.

"Fool! In terms of figure, in terms of face, which point is that Blue Fairy better than Ji Wenyue and Liu Qiaolian?"

"But she is a cultivator, that kind of novelty, it should still be different."

"Slap!" Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen finally couldn't help but discipline his son with a slap, saying: "From today on, you are not allowed to touch women for thirty days! Still novelty, it's really infuriating!"

Seeing Ji Ji Shouli being disciplined like this, Master Yuchi Xiao and the others all secretly shouted that it was a close call!

Because they also thought so, otherwise it wouldn't make sense!

"Daoming, your last move of sending rice is really absolute. In this way, the originally casual relationship is suddenly sublimated into meeting as old friends. In the future, if there is a chance, you can visit the Qingyuan Sect.

Even if our generation has no hope of cultivation, you and Ji Wenyue and Liu Qiaolian's descendants will at least have hope." As soon as Xia Daoming returned, Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen gave him a thumbs up.

Ji Ji Shouli and the others suddenly realized, and their gaze toward Xia Daoming was full of awe.

Sure enough, he is deep in thought!

He has already calculated the cultivation opportunity for his descendants. We can't compare, we can't compare!

"Old Master, can you not be so superficial? A cultivation woman like Lan Xue who is simple, upright, and has no airs at all is really too rare. I truly appreciate her, that's why I sent a little spiritual rice!" Xia Daoming said.

Everyone curled their lips.

In the distance.

Lan Xue still looked back at Li Cheng under the night sky from time to time.

"Don't be silly, that guy looks like a slippery guy at first glance. He gave you spirit stones, sent you 'Snow Lotus Clear Soul Pills', and spiritual rice, all to deceive you!" Du Du Feiyan said angrily.

"Xu Shixiong Sister, I'm not silly. You say he deceived me? Then tell me, what does he want from me? In terms of looks, I am far less beautiful than you. In terms of cultivation, he is a Martial Dao Grandmaster at a young age, not losing to me at all!

If he wants to cultivate, he has already passed the age of cultivation. Even if he considers the cultivation of his descendants, if he takes out these spirit stones and spiritual rice, I estimate that those small sects will definitely give his descendants a chance, so why go through so much trouble?

Besides, if he really had this idea, he should also go to curry favor with Xu Shixiong and you, so why bother with me, the one with the lowest cultivation?

After all, there is only one reason, and that is that Big Xu Shixiong Xia and I really have a brother-sister bond in the dark, so he met me as an old friend and loved me dearly. It's just a pity that immortals and mortals are different!" Lan Xue sighed faintly after saying this.

Du Du Feiyan was left speechless by what she said.

——

Li Cheng.

In a dungeon, heart-piercing, beast-like roars and screams rang out from time to time.

That was Ma Tong suffering the torture of being sliced into a thousand pieces.

Regarding this cruel decision of Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen, Xia Daoming, who traveled from a civilized world, did not oppose it.

This kind of beast, demon, Xia Daoming believed that suffering any amount of torture and punishment was deserved and not worth sympathizing with.

And outside the dungeon.

The entire Li Cheng was brightly lit, and the commoners were reveling all night.

The prestige of the Ji Clan and Tenglong Prefecture reached its peak at this moment.

Even the Yaohua Building became a holy place for the commoners of Li Cheng, and the threshold of the Yaohua Building was almost flattened that night.

As for Xia Daoming, he was still hiding behind the scenes.

Whether it was crippling Ma Tong or ambushing Wu Rong, it was completed in an instant. Apart from Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen and Liang Liang Jingtang and others who knew clearly that it was Xia Daoming who did it, the commoners of Li Cheng knew nothing.

They all thought that Ma Tong was killed by the joint efforts of Elder Ji Yuanzhen Yuanzhen and Liang Liang Jingtang.

As for Wu Rong, Xia Daoming naturally put the blame on the three disciples of the Qingyuan Sect.

The commoners were reveling all night, and Xia Daoming was not idle either.

After he returned to the backyard of Tenglong Prefecture, which backed onto Yuncui Mountain, he first presented the array-related books to Liu Liu Qiaolian like a treasure, and then gave the Phoenix Jade Grass and other spiritual medicines to Ji Ji Wenyue.

Two women, one obsessed with arrays, one obsessed with medicinal materials.

After taking the things, they went to study them happily, while Xia Daoming himself began to ponder the storage bag.

Last time when he broke through to become a Grandmaster in the Cangmang Mountains, the blood energy in his body surged, nourishing the blood vessels and blood veins of his brain, causing his divine sense to undergo a transformation, and signs of spirit and energy combining appeared.

Later, Xia Daoming's meridians were constantly strengthened, and after breaking through to become a tenth-rank Great Wu Shi a few days ago, his divine sense became even more powerful, and the degree of spirit and energy combining became higher.

These changes also made Xia Daoming gradually understand some methods of using divine sense release without a teacher.

It's just that if divine sense doesn't have energy as a carrier, the distance it can be released is very short. If the thoughts fluctuate a little, or there is external interference, the divine sense will scatter.

"I can now kill enemies from a distance within twelve zhang with energy transformation, far more formidable than Master and the others. I don't know if this divine sense has reached the Grandmaster level." Xia Daoming thought happily, then tried to calm down, released his divine sense into the storage bag, and saw if there was any way to control it.

It's just that as soon as the divine sense entered the storage bag, it seemed to be blocked by a great force. It didn't last long before the divine sense scattered.

However, Xia Daoming could feel that he should have pried open the storage bag, it was just a little bit short.

"If what Lan Xue said is true, then it means my divine sense has reached the level of a Grandmaster!"

Although he didn't open the storage bag, Xia Daoming was not only not frustrated but very surprised.

Martial Dao twelve ranks, connecting the five internal organs.

Among them, the Hand Jueyin Pericardium Meridian and the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian are two meridians directly related to the heart.

The heart governs blood, governs vessels, and hides the spirit.

Once the Hand Jueyin Pericardium Meridian is opened, the heart's blood energy surges powerfully, running straight through the brain, causing the divine sense to follow and combine with the blood energy, thus the energy can leave the body and transform to kill from a distance, and a Great Wu Shi leaps to become a Grandmaster.

And the last meridian to be opened in the Martial Dao twelve ranks is the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian.

This meridian starts from the heart, compared to the Hand Jueyin Pericardium Meridian starting from the chest center pericardium, it is even more closely related to the heart.

The two can be said to be one center and

This meridian starts in the heart; compared to the Hand Jueyin Pericardium Meridian which starts in the center of the chest's pericardium, it is even more closely related to the heart itself.

The two can be said to be, one the center, the other the periphery.

It is evident how important opening the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian is for a martial artist.

Once this meridian is opened, both a Grandmaster's spiritual sense and internal force have a significant leap, especially the spiritual sense, which is somewhat similar to the transformation between a Great Wu Shi and a Grandmaster, allowing a Great Grandmaster's distance for killing enemies from afar to suddenly increase greatly.

Therefore, the twelfth-rank realm is specifically separated out and called Great Grandmaster.

Xia Daoming relied on the fact that his meridians had been strengthened many times; even though he had just stepped into the tenth-rank realm, in terms of internal force strength, he should not be inferior to a Great Grandmaster.

But in terms of spiritual sense, his Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian had not been opened after all; even if the foundation in front was built as solidly as possible, Xia Daoming did not dare to boast that he could compare to a Great Grandmaster.

Now that he could vaguely pry open the storage bag, it at least showed that even if there was a gap in spiritual sense compared to a Great Grandmaster, the gap was very small.

"Not bad, I didn't expect that with a solid foundation, even the spiritual sense could surpass many of the same level." Xia Daoming was very satisfied. After thinking for a while, he took out a Snow Lotus Clear Soul Pill and swallowed it.

This pill can condense the soul and strengthen the spiritual sense, which is just right for this moment.

After swallowing one, Xia Daoming silently operated the Snake Dragon Art technique. Vaguely, he felt pill power entering his blood and meridians, circulating through his whole body, and his spiritual sense quietly underwent some changes.

It was just that this change was very subtle.

After an hour passed, Xia Daoming was a bit unwilling to give up and took another one.

There were still changes, but they were still very subtle.

"It seems that relying on external medicine to strengthen the spiritual sense is very difficult; it's not as easy as my meridian strengthening by one level. Unfortunately, I am already at the tenth-rank realm now, and every additional level of strengthening is very difficult!" Xia Daoming thought to himself, gritted his teeth, and took a box from his bosom.

The box opened, and inside lay the Profound Mist Green Glaze Fruit.
