The next day, Lu Li woke up, and he was full of energy.
A series of system notifications immediately sounded in his mind.
[Your Mighty Steel Spell is hard working. After a night of training, your cultivation progress has increased by 3%.]
[Your Heavenly Dragon Spell has nothing to do, so it teaches the Heart-Shattering Palm technique a lesson. Your cultivation progress has increased by 2%.]
[Your Heaven Blood-Devouring Technique has been greatly satisfied because it has absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy. Your cultivation progress has increased by 5%.]
[The Ghostly Steps Technique has become lazy because you did not move around. Coincidentally, the Ghostly Steps Technique learned something. Your cultivation has increased by 100%.]
What a joy!
After Lu Li heard the system notification, his eyes lit up.
He did not expect that his Ghostly Steps Technique had actually increased its progress by 100%!
His Ghostly Steps Technique had broken through to the fifth level!
On the fifth level, Lu Li’s speed was as fast as lightning, and he was able to split out 5 afterimages. His ability to escape and confuse the enemy had also increased by a lot.
It seemed that being lazy was good as well!
Unfortunately, his Heaven Blood-Devouring Technique did not go out anymore after consuming all the spiritual energy.
Thus, it could not search for spirit ghosts in the Demons Cave.
However, spirit ghosts were not that easy to find. There would only be 1 every 2 months.
Thinking of this, Lu Li did not care too much.
“Oh right, his pitiful Heart-Shattering Palm technique has been beaten by his Heavenly Dragon Spell for an entire night. Its cultivation should have regressed quite a bit. System!”
Lu Li suddenly thought of something, so he summoned the system interface.
Host: Lu Li.
Realm: Level 3 qi refinement realm.
Heavenly Dragon Spell: Level 1 (Progress 15%).
Mighty Steel Spell: Level 1 (Progress 14%).
Indestructible Divine Technique: Level 3 (Progress 99%).
Heaven Blood-Devouring Technique: Level 3 (Progress 11%).
Ghostly Steps Technique: Level 5 (Progress 66%).
Heart-Shattering Palm Technique: Level 4 (Progress 84%).
What a tragic!
His Heart-Shattering Palm Technique had decreased by 15%!
Moreover, his Heart-Shattering Palm Technique had the lowest position.
Lu Li felt a sad for his Heart-Shattering Palm Technique.
However, Lu Li had not much time. He could only wait until he reached to the fifth level of the qi refinement realm before he could go to the Demons Cave to exorcise malicious ghosts. With that, he might be able to break through the realm of his Heart-Shattering Palm Technique.
He had to cultivate his Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra!
Lu Li picked up the jade pendant at the side and activated the formation.
Rumble!
The entire Star Observation Tower trembled.
A straight tunnel linked directly from the top of the tower to the cultivation secret room at the basement.
In the next moment, the light of the great sun was enveloped Lu Li’s body, illuminating his entire body.
Swoosh.
Lu Li removed his clothes, throwing them to the side.
Then, he used all his strength to circulate the Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra and started to absorb the light of the great sun, condensing the qi of the 5 elements.
The surrounding qi merged into Lu Li’s body along with his breathing.
The system prompt immediately sounded.
[Your Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra is full of energy because you are fully in contact with the essence of the great sun. The cultivation effect of your Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra has increased by 100%.]
[Your Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra is immersed in the rich qi of heaven and earth. It feels very comfortable. The cultivation effect of your Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra has increased by 2,000%.]
As expected!
As long as he was rich, he could cultivate any technique quickly regardless it was an orthodox or demonic technique!
Lu Li calmed down and began to silently recite the Heart Sutra.
The system log continued to flood.
[Purple Clouds Sun Refining Sutra progress increased by 1%.]
[Progress: +1%.]
[Progress: +1%.]
[Mighty Steel Spell progress increased by 1%.]
[Heavenly Dragon Spell progress increased by 1%.]
Just like that, Lu Li once again entered closed-door cultivation. His was completely focused on his cultivation, and he did not pay attention to what was happening outside his pavilion.
Day after day, and who knew how much time had passed.
Click!
An extremely subtle cracking sound rang out in the cultivation secret room.
The 233rd mid-grade spirit stone split open, turning into a gray stone.
Lu Li slowly opened his eyes.
A low rumble rang out from within his body.
Spiritual energy surged, breaking through the invisible barrier and finally breaking through his realm.
Fourth level of qi refinement realm!
“8 days, from the third level of qi refinement realm to the fourth level of qi refinement realm. It was faster than before.”
Lu Li could sense the powerful magical power his abdomen, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face.
Then, he raised his right hand, formed a spell, and drew a spirit talisman in the air.
“Form!”
A ray of demonic light immediately formed on his fingertip.
The demonic light was sinister, emitting threads of cold air.
It was frosty, and it was like a cold and sharp arrow that would easily pierce through a heart.
It seemed that after reaching the fourth level of qi refining realm, the power of his demonic light had increased a lot.
If his Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique was activated, it should be able to suck all the blood of a tiger or leopard in an instant.
If a malicious spirit at the seventh or eighth level of qi refining realm was hit by his demonic light, it would probably be directly devoured by half of its ghostly qi, and its body would dissipate in an instant.
Finally, he had an additional long-range attack spell!
Of course, his other techniques improved a lot as well.
Lu Li opened up the system interface.
Realm: Level 4 qi refinement realm.
Heavenly Dragon Spell: Level 1 (Progress 92%).
Mighty Steel Spell: Level 1 (Progress 90%).
Indestructible Divine Technique: Level 3 (Progress 99%).
Heaven Blood-Devouring Technique: Level 4 (Progress 1%).
Ghostly Steps Technique: Level 5 (Progress 88%).
Heart-Shattering Palm Technique: Level 4 (Progress 99%).
Money well spent!
Looking at his techniques, Lu Li was very satisfied.
2 techniques almost broke through.
However, the Mighty Steel Spell and Heavenly Dragon Spell only increased by 3% after he recited the Heart Sutra for a day.
It would take a few more days before he could break through.
The only 1 who was still in the same position was the Heart-Shattering Palm Technique.
It was targeted by his Heavenly Dragon Spell. He was beaten every day. Its cultivation had increased every day, but still beaten by his Heavenly Dragon Spell.
Lu Li could pray for his Heart-Shattering Palm Technique.
In any case, as long as his Heavenly Dragon Spell did not hit his Heavenly Blood-Devouring Technique, it would be fine.
He should make hay while the sun shone!
Lu Li continued to train harder!
Lu Li took a deep breath and prepared to train harder. However, when he saw the pile of stones that had turned gray, he felt that it was somewhat an eyesore.
He could smell something smelly as well.
“Forget about it, let’s eat some grilled fish first. I’ll take a bath later to loosen up my muscles and bones. Then, I’ll rest for a while.”
Lu Li stood up and stretched his back.
Crack!
Cracking sounds rang out immediately.
Later, he left the pavilion.
He jumped into the large pond beside, allowing the waterfall to wash away his fatigue.
He also dived into the bottom of the pond and caught two huge spiritual fishes.
He even could catch 3 large crabs at the same time.
Phew.
In a short while, he set up a fire by the pond and made a grill, skewered the spiritual fish and started roasting them.
He went out to pick some spiritual fruits too.
Just like that, Lu Li leaned against a rock and roasted the fish. He ate some spiritual fruits and crabs while basking in the sun. He felt extremely comfortable.
He was enjoying his life.
“What a good day. It’s a pity that I didn’t have a bottle of Coca-Cola to enjoy.”
Lu Li ate the fish as he felt extremely nostalgic.
It would have been better if he could enjoy his time somewhere else.
However, he was in the Demonic sect, and he could not relax as he thought of it.
It was 3:00 PM. He wanted to have a cup of tea first.
“Oh? Why is it getting dark?”
Lu Li got up and was about to make tea. When he looked up, he suddenly saw a large black cloud rolling over, blocking out the sun.
An incomparably terrifying aura, vast and boundless, came down from the sky.
Destruction! Obliteration!
It was shocking and terrifying!
Something was wrong with that black cloud!
Lu Li’s expression changed slightly, and he jumped up.
At this moment, a blinding bolt of lightning streaked across the sky.
Boom!
The sound of thunder shook the world.
Lu Li felt as if his entire soul was about to be shattered.
He had never heard such a terrifying thunder before!
“Junior Brother, run! Master is about to become a Demigod. The Lightning Tribulation has arrived!”
Outside his Star Observation Tower, Bai Jinfei was riding on a huge flying boat as he shouted.
“If you don’t run now, when the Lightning Tribulation hits you, there won’t be anything left!”
