After the Skyfall

Chapter 548: Prince Xin’s Banquet

Xinzhou City, Yaoxing Tower in the palace.

Li Yi was standing on the rooftop of the Yaoxing Tower at this moment, with a faint scent of incense surrounding his body. This scent of incense was obtained when he rescued the dozen women during the day, and it seemed that it was also added by those yamen runners. Although it was only the power of incense and faith provided by more than 30 people, this power was very special and alternative. It seemed to be compatible with any power and there was no rejection at all.

If it is combined with the physical body, the physical body will undergo a miraculous transformation and will have the ability to actively absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. In addition, the physical body will also have a vague sense of psychic powers, as if it can see through the mysteries of heaven and earth. At the same time, it is also getting rid of the influence of flesh and blood and evolving in an unknown direction.

If it is combined with the soul, the soul will become powerful in an instant. Even if it abandons the physical body, it can last forever in the world. Moreover, the power of incense can be used to reshape the soul form.

Even the power of this incense and faith can be combined with Taoist tools to enhance their power.

Although we know that the power of incense is fake and temporary, and once faith collapses, everything will be lost, this sudden improvement is really irresistible. As long as there are enough incense sticks, it is entirely possible for a person to ascend to the sky in a short period of time and become a powerful being.

"This power of faith and incense is so magical that it is omnipotent. Moreover, it does not require any hard work. Once you obtain it, it can be immediately transformed into powerful strength. It is so tempting that it really makes people want to fall into it and embark on the path of becoming a god through incense and incense."

Li Yi took a deep breath and clenched his fist.

Fist burst out.

The soul turned into a furious Vajra at this moment, and forcibly suppressed all the distracting thoughts in the heart.

"What I have to do is to use the false to cultivate the true, rather than being bound by the power of incense. This kind of power that does not belong to me is easy to obtain and easy to lose. I must be vigilant at all times." Li Yi opened his eyes and his vision became clear again.

He then absorbed the power of the incense into his body, and it circulated along with the blood and qi in his body, and then condensed towards the lungs.

He had decided to use the power of incense to open up the acupoints in his body.

Because the power of incense creates something out of nothing, it is most suitable to use it to try to open up acupoints. As long as the opening is successful, Qi and blood will move in and the golden Qi of heaven and earth will gather inside. Even if the incense disappears, the acupoint will still exist, because Qi and blood and spiritual energy are real and will not disappear with the power of incense.

This is his way of using the false to cultivate the true.

While visualizing the picture of gods performing martial arts to determine the location of the acupoints, Li Yi manipulated the energy of incense to impact the location of the acupoints in an attempt to open them.

Although the scent of incense is very weak, it can guide a trace of qi and blood energy to gather there.

As long as the correct position is determined and a slight gap in the acupoint is pried open, the acupoint can still be opened smoothly afterwards even without the power of incense and faith.

soon.

The power of the incense and faith exploded inside the body, and the acupoint opening failed.

However, Li Yi did not suffer any harm. Instead, the power of the incense and faith that exploded was gathered together again, and then he mobilized it again to explore the mysteries of the acupoints in his body.

"really."

At this moment, Li Yi was a little excited. His idea was correct.

The power of incense does not harm his body, and it does not matter if the attempt fails. Unlike before, when he mobilized the power of divine blood to impact the acupoints, if he failed to open the acupoints, his body would be injured immediately, and his internal organs would explode in serious cases. He would then need to recuperate again to recover from his injuries. Even though he used the power of qi and blood to the minimum, he could still not avoid hurting his body.

Therefore, the speed at which he opened up the acupoints was too slow, so that his strength could not be improved.

But the incense comes out of nothing and cannot hurt oneself at all. All one needs to do is to disperse and then gather again.

As long as the faith is there, the power of incense will always be there.

With this thought.

The power of the incense exploded in his body for the second time. Li Yi was unharmed, but his acupoints were still not opened. But it didn't matter. He now had the capital to try and explore again and again, and he didn't need to spend time on cultivating his body.

The third time, the fourth time, the fifth time.
In less than an hour, Li Yi tried no less than a dozen times.

Finally, at the twenty-first time.

The power of the incense disappeared as if it had fallen into a bottomless abyss. It was as if a tightly closed door was pushed open a crack, and the power of the incense disappeared through the crack into a world of nothingness.

"The fifteenth acupoint has been opened?" Li Yi suddenly opened his eyes, an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

Is it really that easy?
Li Yi tried to regulate his qi and blood, converging them within the fifteenth acupoint.

The energy and blood in his body surged, and the door that was only slightly opened was now completely opened, and a new acupoint was formed.

He immediately took out the Spirit Blood Pill from the Five Elements Bracelet to replenish the lost blood and energy in his body.

Soon. Li Yi was certain that he had opened up the fifteenth acupoint in such a short time.

"call!"

Afterwards, he exhaled slowly, and the incense energy that remained in the acupoint was exhaled again, wrapping around his body and attracting the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

"Using the false to cultivate the true, it's really powerful." Li Yi stared at the scent of incense and found it really outrageous.

Under normal circumstances, when he exhaled this breath of incense, the acupoint should have collapsed and disappeared immediately. After all, the power of your incense faith has left your body, and everything you created before should have disappeared. However, the fifteenth major acupoint in his body still exists, and the qi and blood in his body are constantly filling it up, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is also gathering.

Everything is exactly as imagined.

If he continues at this rate, as long as the power of the incense is sufficient, Li Yi will be able to open up sixty acupoints within a month, and then absorb the energy of the five elements of heaven and earth, and after slowly refining it for a period of time, he will be able to successfully complete the Five Qi Realms.

Once the five qi converge, Li Yi's soul will transform into a primordial spirit, which is twelve times more powerful than that of a cultivator.

I wonder how powerful he will be by then.

Set your mind.

Li Yi calmed down and used the surging blood and qi power of the Lingxue Pill to slowly fill up the fifteenth acupoint. After that, he had to gather the heart qi and use the heart fire qi to refine the gold qi before he could complete it.

Although he took a shortcut, he still had to be pragmatic in his subsequent practice, otherwise the five elements would be out of balance. Once the five energies converged, his soul would shatter in an instant, and he would die.

Although practicing multiple methods is powerful, it also comes with corresponding risks and costs.

And at the same time.

The Yaoxing Tower beneath his feet was brightly lit.

Because the owner of the palace today, Prince Xin, is holding a banquet in the Yaoxing Tower.

The spacious and bright attic was full of guests. Young and beautiful maids brought all kinds of delicacies, fine wines and delicious dishes. In addition, there were flocks of birds flying and circling overhead, making pleasant and melodious calls. In the middle of the table, there was a white ape dancing with a sword, and on the left and right sides, there were white foxes offering treasures. The identities of the guests who were invited were not simple.

There are monsters transformed into human forms, knights who travel the world, Taoist priests who have attained enlightenment, and talented scholars.

This kind of banquet can only be hosted by kings and princes.

The Prince Xin who sat in the main seat was a young man in his early twenties. He was handsome, with an extraordinary bearing, and the aura of a dragon surrounded his body. The dragon was made of black jade, with bared fangs and claws, and was extremely ferocious. It was invisible to the naked eye and was the result of the faith and prayers of all the people in the world.

The aura of the dragon is also known as the aura of a king or a prince. With this aura of a king or a prince alone, King Xin can intimidate spirits and monsters and command ghosts and gods just by sitting there.

However, Prince Xin, who had such a noble identity, prominent status, many beautiful wives, maids, and rare treasures, was not happy.

There are two reasons.

First, he was crowned king at the age of only 21, which meant that he would never be able to ascend to the throne in this life and could only be an idle prince.

Second, he wanted to imitate his ancestors, seek immortality and travel freely, but he had no idea how to do it.

Prince Xin was troubled as he could neither fight for the throne nor achieve immortality. He felt that this boring life day after day was not what he wanted. He thought that he was gifted and should have a brighter future, instead of being trapped in this cage, growing old, and finally dying without leaving anything behind.

"Today, the king is hosting a banquet tonight and inviting all talented people to come to the banquet for only one thing. The king wants to know, is it possible for spirits, ghosts, gods, or those who practice Taoism to achieve immortality?" King Xin spoke slowly, looking at everyone present with some anticipation.

"I have taken in quite a few spirits in my palace. They are born and raised in the wild, living in the open air, and taking in energy to transform themselves. But in the end, they also have their lifespans and cannot live forever. I have thought that maybe they are not gifted enough to practice and cannot achieve immortality. But the world is vast, and I think there must be some special ones who can live forever. You have traveled all over the world and have left your footprints in all thirty states. I wonder if you have seen anything?"

As soon as this was said, a ranger with a sword on his back said, "Your Highness, when I was traveling around the world, the longest-lived creature I saw was a tree spirit. It was a thousand years old, but for the first few hundred years it was like rotten wood. In the last hundred years, it was worshipped by incense and worship, and then it opened its spiritual wisdom and transformed into a physical form. As for immortality, I think it is unlikely. But if it can obtain some skills, it should not be a problem to prolong its life."

A charming and beautiful woman smiled and said, "Your Highness has all the wealth in the world, why do you want to live forever? A stone can last forever, but how boring is that? Besides, Your Highness has the support of millions of people, and it is very difficult to practice. Seeking for immortality is like a flower in the mirror or a moon in the water, which is ultimately in vain."

"I have to try it after all." Prince Xin said calmly: "If I can find the method, I can give up the throne and destroy the incense of the people."

"If there is no throne and no people's worship, how can one seek immortality?"

The charming woman, at this moment, was holding up her head and talking with a smile. A furry tail stretched out from behind her, swaying slightly.

Obviously, this enchanting woman is not a human, but a fox girl, a transformed monster.
