The Tang Valley Sea and the Fusang Divine Tree appeared on the other side of the space barrier, casting brilliant light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, he took out a Light Flame Pill and swallowed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body became as bright as a light bulb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Closing his eyes, he performed the Fusang Divine Tree meditation method, absorbing the light flame power from both inside and outside to strengthen the earth fire in his brow spirit world. (The Indang spirit world starts here, referred to as the spirit world.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To go from the Earth Fire realm to the Heaven Fire realm, one only needs to accumulate one-third of the spirit light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One-third of a square unit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And to reach the Disaster Fire realm, one needs to fill the entire spirit world, which is twice as difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several months had passed since reaching the Great Thought Master realm, and Li Youyi had been busy improving his martial arts; the spirit light in his spirit world was less than one-tenth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was already considered fast; even Great Thought Masters who only cultivated thought power didn't have such an accumulation speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One Light Flame Pill was worth one thousand Spring Surge coins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sixty pills were sixty thousand Spring Surge coins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very expensive!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was no choice; Li Youyi couldn't cultivate slowly and had to break through to the Heaven Fire realm as soon as possible to go to the Tang Valley Sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reaching the Great Thought Master level, the speed of absorbing Light Flame Pills increased several times, and it was digested in just two hours. In the spirit world, the spirit light increased visibly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like the accumulation of Qi in martial arts cultivation, it was another long process of accumulation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The news of the engagement spread, immediately causing a sensation in the whole city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The secret that Zuoqiu Ting and Zuoqiu Hong were the same person was naturally made public.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone knew very well that this was not only the engagement banquet of two young emperors but also a marriage alliance between the Zuoqiu Gate and the Nine Li tribe, which had extraordinary significance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the government office under the night, lanterns were lit one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Greetings, Lord Zhuang!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Zhuang!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the corridor, a group of officials from the attendant hall retreated to the side and bowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuang Yue held the invitation, walking quickly. Her teeth were almost crushed, and her eyes were so cold that it seemed she would draw her sword and kill at any time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arriving at the top of the tower where Jiang Ning cultivated, she tried hard to calm her emotions, not knowing how to speak. Just as she was about to turn and leave, a pleasant inquiry came from inside: \"What's wrong? Is there a result from the transcendents' duel?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Creak!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wooden door and the array opened at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuang Yue stood at the door, unable to step in, tears swirling in her eyes, not knowing how to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning had already changed out of the dress she wore during the day, removed her hair accessories, and was wearing the official robe of the prefecture governor, simple and plain, sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed, accumulating and tempering Qi, cultivating the seventh sea that was not yet complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the last few days, news of young generation geniuses breaking through to the Dao Seed realm had been spreading in Qiuzhou Prefecture City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She also felt a sense of urgency in her heart and didn't want to fall behind others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Has another transcendent of the imperial court fallen?\" Jiang Ning's tone became much heavier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four days ago, news of an imperial court transcendent's fall came back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If another one fell, the impact would be too great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was even more afraid that it would be a transcendent of the Jiang family who fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuang Yue shook her head vigorously and finally gathered the courage to say resentfully and aggrievedly: \"He is still a heartless man... he... he is going to get engaged to Zuoqiu Hongting...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning opened her eyes: \"Let me see!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took the invitation Zhuang Yue handed her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reading for a long time, Jiang Ning closed the invitation and handed it back: \"I won't go. In three days, you prepare a gift for me to send.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss! Are you just going to endure this?\" Zhuang Yue said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning pondered for a moment, stood up, pushed the window to look at the lanterns all over the city, and let the cool night wind blow on her face. She said: \"The Zuoqiu Gate must get the Hidden Dragon. Only if the two of them marry is it the most secure.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuang Yue said: \"But you can't hurt people like this? During the day, he didn't even give a heads-up in advance. To help him, to save him, Miss risked huge risks to meet him several times. To help him keep the secret, she resisted the Second Palace Master's questioning, causing the master and apprentice to fall out. He couldn't have failed to feel your affection!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Zhuang Yue knew that Jiang Ning treated Li Youyi differently from anyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I hear these words again after tonight, I will expel you from the Luan Terrace and the Jiang family.\" Jiang Ning said in the calmest tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuang Yue bit her lip and nodded with tears in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning sighed: \"In the past, for the sake of the imperial court, I would definitely have found a way to sabotage this and not let the Zuoqiu Gate succeed. But now, the demon race is coming aggressively, and the human race must unite to resist; we cannot continue to consume ourselves internally.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually, the Zuoqiu Gate preparing for the marriage alliance so actively is a good thing. It shows that the human transcendents have withstood the demon race's attack, and the duel might be coming to an end!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can't hide your thoughts; don't go to the engagement banquet, I will arrange for someone else to go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning raised her eyes slightly, looking at the majestic mountain with twinkling lights in the night: \"Who knows what he is thinking? There are not so many mutual affections in the world; regrets and incompleteness are the norm. It's good that the clouds break at the vast and misty time, so that thunder and rain won't collide.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Xiao sent someone to look for Yang Qingxi's tracks at noon and soon had a clue, so he immediately went to confirm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he went out, he met a servant of the Zuoqiu Gate sending an invitation to the Qi residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Xiao was curious and naturally blocked them. After asking, he was both shocked and happy: \"Are you kidding... this is so outrageous... hurry up and let me see, is my only brother really a master of the secret book of eating soft rice?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reading the invitation, Qi Xiao laughed loudly, already thinking about how to drink the wedding wine in three days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Youyi has ascended to the sky in one step; his future achievements will at least be the man of the Zuoqiu Gate head. The man of the master of the Lingxiao Life Realm is also possible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Xiao returned the invitation to the servant and decided to handle the Yang Qingxi matter more cautiously, absolutely not causing peach blossom trouble for his only brother at this juncture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't take a carriage, wore night clothes, and moved quickly in stealth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arriving at the mansion found by the Qi family's eyes and ears, Qi Xiao memorized the location and surrounding environment. Just then, the back door opened, and Yang Qingxi wore a large black robe, with a hood covering her head, and sat on a carriage mysteriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Driving the carriage was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, in linen clothes, with nothing special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only unusual thing was this coachman...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too young!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Interesting! It's so late, and Miss Yang is dressed like this; it seems she is hiding an incredible secret.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After breaking through to the Dao Seed realm, Qi Xiao was bold and naturally didn't put Yang Qingxi in his eyes, so he followed silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Qi Xiao didn't expect was that the carriage drove all the way out of the city. Finally, it stopped at a remote town two hundred miles away from Qiuzhou Prefecture City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a night of rushing, the sky was already bright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Yang Qingxi's status, how could she come to such a place?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Xiao was even more surprised, and seeing early pedestrians in the town, he followed the carriage tracks while observing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One grain, two sprouts, three leaf seedlings crawl in the wind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Four crescent petals sway, five golden rice grains laugh ha ha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ahead, barefoot children came in groups, singing nursery rhymes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Xiao, in a stealth state, quickly retreated to the side, watching them leave with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his mind, he recalled carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He found that almost all the children were twins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems they should be a group of rice-people children; I don't know which big family keeps them as slaves, or are they seedlings of dead soldiers?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Xiao suddenly thought that the Sui Sect seemed to have a business of buying and selling rice-people, and guessed in his heart that perhaps this was one of their cargo transfer strongholds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, he arrived at the end of the town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Taoist temple half-hidden in the trees appeared before his eyes. Outside the Taoist temple, a large number of carriages had already stopped, coming from all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was not a single coachman on the carriages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the whole world became unusually quiet, and the town that had pedestrians and nursery rhymes just now became dead silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Xiao had already sensed that something was wrong, his brows furrowed, and he prepared to retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since Young Master Qi has come to the Rice Ancestor Temple, why not come in and sit?\" An ethereal voice of an old man came from the Taoist temple in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not good!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Xiao's eyes changed drastically, and he turned to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he turned, the sky suddenly darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if the whole world had changed, turning back into night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On both sides of the street in the town he had just passed, every house lit lamps, and coffins were placed at the doors. Outside every door, there were two identical figures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some were two old men sitting on the ground sharpening sickles, looking at him from time to time, making weird giggling sounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some were two teenagers, in linen clothes, carrying long swords.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some were two stunning beauties, one sitting on the eaves, dressed sexily and exposed, with large areas of snow-white skin exposed, giggling. One was sitting under the eaves, quiet and elegant, plucking a zither.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Xiao saw Yang Qingxi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stood alone in the center of the street, wearing a black robe, revealing only half of her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Xiao was shocked to the point of no return, looking around at the dark sky, unable to tell whether he had arrived in the morning, unable to tell whether he had followed for a night, and said tremblingly: \"Wuchang Illusion... which Saint Spirit Thought Master senior is playing such a joke on the junior?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A joke?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman sitting on the eaves, with two snow-white beautiful legs dangling, laughed charmingly: \"First!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He is already in the Dao Seed realm.\" Yang Qingxi said lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's fine, I'll solve it for you. You owe me a favor!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sexy woman moved, her body beautiful, all the jewelry on her body jingling, emitting dazzling light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Xiao used his movement technique and turned to flee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But behind him was the even more weird Taoist temple, which made people fearful, so he wanted to go around from the right. On the right, a group of barefoot children came and blocked his way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The nursery rhyme sounded again, but in Qi Xiao's ears, it had completely changed its taste, and his heart was full of terrifying emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One grain, two sprouts, wake up at the third watch to kill the master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Blood splatters, dyes white gauze, crows fly in the sky at the fifth watch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Six-foot grave, seven-step evil.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eight lines of spells hang in the sky.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nine heads hang on the ears, ten generations of extinction I sprout.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please vote for the monthly ticket!\u003C\u002Fp>",2176,"2026-06-17T12:01:25.944Z","2026-06-18T03:38:37.614Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","330a301e06ba796be9e82505b0b643513a8ce07d831e8399df94d8e68bc38efa","the-primeval-law-chapter-265","the-primeval-law-chapter-263",333,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-primeval-law-cover.jpg"]
