This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!-Chapter 448 - 9: On Stage Again, Flame Core (6K+)
Chapter 448 -9: On Stage Again, Flame Core (6K+)
September 5th.
Li Fei and his group returned to Datong Prefecture, back to Wuda.
Ke Yan went to report the situation and the specific details of the Martial Arts exchange competition to the senior management of Wuda, while Li Fei went directly to see Shi Caiming.
Upon reaching the peak of the small mountain, Li Fei found Shi Caiming, who was drinking.
Every time he saw this Great Grandmaster, if he wasn’t smoking or drinking, he was sleeping; Li Fei had never seen him cultivate.
Could the Great Grandmaster’s method of cultivation be different from what he understood?
“Principal, I’m back.”
Li Fei approached Shi Caiming and began to speak.
Then he briefly described the series of events that had occurred at the Daluo Sect.
After listening, Shi Caiming silently lit a cigarette for himself:
“You were right not to get involved in the dispute between the Crown Prince and the Daluo Sect. If the Crown Prince tries to win you over, try not to get too close to him.”
Li Fei nodded.
Before he left the Daluo Sect, a eunuch from the Crown Prince’s entourage had approached him, leaving him a contact number and telling him that if he ever needed to repair the Cloud Dream Gold Thread Robe, he could use this number.
This was essentially giving him a way to actively contact the Crown Prince.
Li Fei believed that if he showed a willingness to serve the Crown Prince, even if he didn’t win the championship at the Martial Arts exchange competition, he could still obtain the inheritance of the “Vajra Eight Parts.”
This was the ‘subtext’ the Crown Prince had set up for him publicly.
However, even without Shi Caiming’s reminder, Li Fei wouldn’t consider serving the Crown Prince.
From his first day in this world, he had never planned to let anyone else control his destiny!
Moreover, both his identity as the Green-faced Ghost and Hao Yi’s experiences left him feeling little affection for this feudal dynasty…
“Principal, there’s something I’m trying to understand.”
Li Fei asked, “The Daluo Sect has stayed out of political struggles for years, yet the Crown Prince’s actions undoubtedly push the Daluo Sect to stand against him. Was this his own idea, or that of the Emperor?”
If it was just the Crown Prince’s idea, it likely meant the matter was mostly about political strife.
But if it was the Emperor’s idea, considering that Pudu Temple had also joined this Martial Arts exchange competition, the Dynasty’s centuries-old policy of ‘demeaning Buddhism and honoring Taoism’ might be about to change!
That would affect many people and many things.
Shi Caiming glanced at Li Fei, noticing that his reference to the Emperor lacked proper respect:
“When did you start caring about these things?”
“Just curious.”
“People, the less curious you are, the easier life can be.”
“I have learned, Teacher.”
Li Fei bowed to Shi Caiming.
His main concern was because of that ‘dream’ he had on Daluo Peak.
His intuition told him the dream was related to the Daluo Sect, and it might also be connected to the current changes. Understanding it in advance could help him cope with various uncertainties in the future.
But since Shi Caiming did not seem inclined to say much, Li Fei did not ask further and turned to leave.
After leaving the Exotic Beast Breeding Area, Li Fei left Wuda directly. He then employed the “One Leaf Covering Eyes Technique” and the Vajra Seal·Treasure Vase to conceal himself and proceeded to Zhao Yi’s residence.
He had arranged the meeting by phone beforehand, so when he arrived, Zhao Yi was waiting for him inside.
“You’ve reached the Late Divine Transformation Stage?” fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Upon entering, Li Fei subconsciously sensed this and looked at Zhao Yi with some surprise.
He had cast the ‘Wood Ghost Binding Curse’ on Zhao Yi, establishing a kind of spiritual connection between them, and since he had also developed ‘Void Thought,’ he sensed Zhao Yi’s realm immediately upon seeing her.
“Yes.”
Zhao Yi nodded, her expression somewhat complex.
Being able to sense her realm immediately indicated that Li Fei had also reached the Divine Transformation Stage.
Breaking historical records in Martial Arts cultivation, and yet Li Fei’s progress in Magic Dao was astonishingly fast as well, making Zhao Yi feel a bit inferior…
“Congratulations.”
Li Fei smiled and said to Zhao Yi.
Currently, his identity as the Green-faced Ghost King seemed to dominate the entire Datong Prefecture’s World, and it appeared magnificent.
But in reality, he didn’t have a single powerful warrior under his command.
With his territory expanding and business increasing, it was impossible for Li Fei alone to manage everything.
If conflicts or frictions with other forces arose in the future, Li Fei could not personally handle every matter.
Currently, everyone feared the Ghost King’s might and dared not act rashly, but that might change with time.
Therefore, Li Fei hoped that several skilled fighters would emerge from his ranks soon.
“What items will you need next?”
Li Fei asked.
Reaching the Late Stage of Magic Dao meant starting preparations to break through to the Possession Stage. This stage involved integrating the Implant into the selected materials and then refining it into a Magic Artifact.
Since the Implant would no longer merge into a human body and absorb energy, maintaining its growth would become more challenging and require greater sacrifices.
Also, the various materials needed to refine the Magic Artifacts were exceedingly expensive.
In short, this stage was all about burning cash!
The higher the talent, the fewer resources needed.
If the talent was lacking, the resources required would be astronomical!
Zhao Yi’s talent was naturally high; otherwise, she couldn’t have advanced from Early to Late Divine Transformation Stage within just half a year.
“Alright, I’ll give you a list later.”
Zhao Yi didn’t stand on ceremony with Li Fei.
“Hmm.”
Li Fei nodded, looking at Zhao Yi, “I’ve come to ask you something.”
