After the Skyfall

Chapter 573: The Third Level of the Five Qi Realm

Six days have passed since Li Yi moved into Wuji Palace.

During these six days, the power of his faith and belief in the position of National Master reached its peak. At the same time, his practice had also undergone an earth-shaking change. Not only had he broken through to the second level of the Five Qi Realm, but he had also successfully opened up thirty-six acupoints. If everything went well, he could break through to the third level of the Five Qi Realm.

It's just that the speed of absorbing wood energy is a bit slow. Even with the help of the power of incense and faith to perform the method of gathering energy from heaven and earth, only eight acupoints have been filled so far, and there are still four acupoints left to be filled.

According to this cultivation speed, Li Yi can enter the third level of the Five Qi Realm in one breath.

Therefore, the speed of opening up the acupoints must be accelerated.

At least all sixty acupoints required for the Five Qi Realm must be opened up. Once you leave this world where people become gods and return to Earth, or go to another world, you will no longer have such a good opportunity.

"The power of incense and faith has reached the limit of what I can currently obtain. If I want to continue to increase the power of incense, I must start the plan of destroying mountains and temples." Li Yi in Wuji Palace felt that the limit of his incense had been reached at this moment, although the power of incense would continue to increase in the next two days.

But the rate of increase has been very slow.

The more acupoints are opened later, the more incense is needed. If the incense is not enough, although it can be opened, the speed will be slowed down accordingly. Now Li Yi's speed of opening new acupoints is not as fast as before, but fortunately it has not reached the limit. According to his estimation, it should not be a problem to open another twelve acupoints.

"Fairy, how are you doing over there?"

Li Yi took a short rest at this moment. He found that all the pills in his Five Elements Bracelet had been eaten up, whether it was the Lingxue Pill, the more precious Kuilong Pill, or other things that replenished qi and blood, all of them were consumed.

Because there were too many acupoints opened up, his demand for qi and blood was too great.

However, in this world where people become gods through worshipping incense, there are not so many natural treasures to provide for him, so now the acupoints in Li Yi's body are not filled with enough divine blood and he is still in a hungry state.

He felt that this problem could not be solved in this world, and he had to go to the wild world or the demon god world to solve it.

Those two worlds contain strange beasts and great monsters, which are most beneficial for tempering the physical body.

"I have roughly mastered the Big and Small Ruyi Techniques. This spell is really exquisite. No wonder the masters of Tianyi Sect have never learned it completely. It took me six days to deduce it by using the power of incense and faith. But if you want to master it completely, the current incense power is not enough. It's too easy. You need to obtain more incense power."

Xiang Xiangzi's soul was clearly visible on the soul flower. She sat with her eyes closed, the scent of incense surrounding her body, like a god of incense. At this moment, she opened her eyes and a hint of frustration appeared on her face.

"It's already very impressive that you can roughly master the big and small Ruyi techniques within six days. Fairy, don't be discouraged." Li Yi said.

Xiang Xiangzi said, "But I also learned the bald man's rain-calling technique. As for the technique of turning rivers and seas upside down, I will learn it later. Taiyi, I will teach you the big and small Ruyi and the rain-calling technique first, and I will teach you the rest after I have learned them."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Fairy." Li Yi said.

"You and I are one soul, there is no difference between us."

As Xiang Xiangzi spoke, the flower of the soul dropped a ray of clear light, which went straight into the depths of Li Yi's head and merged into his soul.

In an instant, all the mysteries of the Big and Small Ruyi Techniques and the Rain-Calling Technique emerged in Li Yi's mind.

Various Taoist methods were intertwined together, allowing him to master new spells in a short period of time.

"The transmission of the Dharma by the primordial spirit is truly incredible." Li Yi was shocked and doubtful.

"This is natural. If I learn it, it means you have learned it. After all, my soul seed depends on your soul power to exist, and it needs your soul power to nurture it before it can bloom. It's just that the current situation is very special. I woke up early because of the power of incense and faith. This is unprecedented. Moreover, the power of incense has closely connected our souls. If it were a normal situation, when your three flowers bloomed, my soul power would have no effect, and I would not be able to interfere with your soul and transmit the soul."

Xiang Xiangzi continued, "Why don't you continue to practice? The power of incense is still strong now."

"I'm a little hungry, so I'm going to take a rest. Now I've eaten everything in my Five Elements Bracelet. The needs of my body are too great. I'm afraid this world will hardly satisfy my energy and blood consumption." Li Yi said.

This is the disadvantage of practicing multiple methods at the same time: the resources consumed are too enormous.

"Then break through to the third level of the Five Qi Realm in one go, then come out of seclusion, kill the incense god of this world, gather incense from all over the world, and then cross the border and leave." Xiang Xiangzi said.

"I think so too. There are still four acupoints left. I will try to refine them all in one go." Li Yi said.

After a short rest.

Li Yi once again used the Heaven and Earth Qi Gathering Technique, and at the same time he took out a piece of colorful stone.

Immediately, green wood energy rushed into his body, and the speed was much faster than before. However, as the number of acupoints in his body increased, Li Yi felt that his vitality had reached its peak. Even when he was hungry, his dragon and tiger power was more than ten times that of before. He didn't need to do anything, but just punched out to destroy the mountains. If he could achieve the Five Qi Realm and fill the acupoints with divine blood, he could really try to suppress the world with his fist and turn the mountains and rivers upside down.

It is incredible that a warrior from all over the world can reach this point.

During this period of cultivation, the Jinyiwei and Jintongwei who were responsible for garrisoning near the Wuji Palace also gained a lot of good fortune. They were baptized by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and evolved themselves. Some of those in the spiritual inspiration realm broke through to the spiritual perception realm, and after several shifts, they helped at least hundreds of people advance.

Although they do have a foundation in their bodies, it is still incredible.

As a result, the Jinyiwei and Jintongwei were eager to come to Wuji Palace to serve, wanting to feel the baptism of the energy of heaven and earth.

During these last four days of practice.

Inside the Yongchang Hall in the imperial palace, Li Jiye, the Shenwu Emperor, was now ready. He looked out at the Wuji Palace every day and felt the increasingly powerful aura. He was very pleased. Everything was just as he expected. The aura of the position of the National Master could help Xiao Yi make rapid progress in a short period of time.

But the reality is better than expected.

Li Yi's improvement in strength was even surprising. Even from a distance he could feel the dragon-tiger power that shook the mountains and rivers and the unrivaled magical power.

"Practicing many methods at the same time, the potential is really huge." Li Jiye thought to himself. He actually also received a gift from Li Yi, a method of cultivating immortality called the Nine-Turn Immortality Technique.

Although it is only the sixth level and can only be cultivated to the Tribulation Crossing Stage, it can bring a long life of thousands of years.

The combination of incense and immortal cultivation has benefited Li Jiye a lot during this period. He seems to have been reborn and has endless potential.

The power of the emperor's throne even made him feel that it was not enough.

At this moment, both the father and the son understood that they had to destroy mountains and temples in the near future. They had to gather the incense from all over the world as soon as possible and sort out the world. Only in this way would they have the strength to deal with various crises when they crossed over and returned to Earth one day.

"I see you, Your Majesty."

At this time, a dignified woman in palace dress slowly walked into the emperor's bedroom.

Li Jiye was sitting cross-legged on a purple sacred stone. His pupils moved slightly as he looked at the person who came: "De Fei, have you found out what happened?"

"Everything is just as your majesty expected. Emperor Yin smelled something unusual and decided to kill Master Taiyi." Concubine De said slowly, "There is only one reason. The incense of our ancestors cannot be given to others. At the court meeting in ten days, the hidden officials will definitely put pressure on your majesty to deprive Master Taiyi of his title of state teacher and kill him immediately."

Li Jiye sneered, "What do you mean by ancestral incense cannot be given to others? If that's true, there shouldn't be so many incense gods in the world. Instead, only Emperor Yin should be able to enjoy incense offerings. The reason they want to kill Taiyi Zhenren is that these old guys feel threatened. A Taoist who practices with the help of incense may shake the foundation of the world's incense gods."

"But these old guys are not wrong. I do intend to do this. Concubine De, how are the Jinyiwei doing?"

"Three thousand Jinyiwei have been assembled, all of them are elite soldiers, and the horses, food, weapons and armor are all ready, just waiting for your majesty's order." Defei said.

Li Jiye's expression eased a little. "Very good. Three days later, you will have the Golden Eye Guards go to Wuji Palace to pass a message, asking Taiyi Zhenren to lead 3,000 Jinyi Guards to leave the capital and go from north to south to start the journey of destroying mountains and temples. I will have Heishan Jun and the Golden Eye Guards Hua Nv to assist them. During this time, you only need to do your part well."

"If things change, I have found a way out for you. You can go with Master Taiyi, and he will keep you safe."

"I am loyal to Your Majesty in my life. If this fails, Your Majesty can execute me as planned to quell the people's anger." After saying this, Concubine De knelt down, and behind her a furry white tail emerged from her palace skirt.

This is a fox tail.

And this Defei was actually a fox girl. Now she has been canonized and enjoys incense and worship. Her cultivation is profound and extraordinary.

Li Jiye's eyes moved slightly. It was indeed according to the plan. If his plan to destroy the mountains and temples failed and the ministers were outraged, he planned to use the excuse that Concubine De was a fox girl, accusing her of bringing harm to the country and the people, and kill her in public to appease the public anger and thus preserve his throne.

Although this is too cruel and heartless, this is what the emperor does.

But it is different now.

He already has a son, Xiaoyi, and a future, so there is no need to sacrifice an innocent fox girl.

So when the moment of failure really comes, Concubine De still has to protect herself.
