The Primordial Law

Chapter 548 The Challenge of the Holy Spirit Master

Yun Song said, "After breaking through to become a Holy Spirit Mind Master, the two instructors' attitudes towards him changed completely. They no longer treated him as a new recruit, but rather as a comrade-in-arms of equal status. Of course, the difference in status and position is still there."

"It's not just the two instructors; among the new recruits, some are filled with awe, some with admiration, and some with flattery. The difference between them is like heaven and earth," Li Weiyi said with a smile.

Yun Song said, "Isn't it always like this wherever there are people? The new recruits of the Sentinel Spirit Army are already quite good in terms of character. They are all very self-disciplined and have a lot of pride. Outside, when a Holy Spirit Mind Master is born, all Mind Masters and martial artists below the Holy Spirit level have to kneel and kowtow. The next day, their doorsteps will be overwhelmed by various forces, who will offer countless benefits to win them over."

"Moreover, Xueyucai is so young, his future achievements are immeasurable."

"Let alone facing the Holy Spirit Mind Master, I feel a certain amount of pressure even when I'm facing you."

What Li Weiyi envied most was that the other party could have a palace or cave dwelling in Yanjue Mountain, while she herself couldn't even have an independent barracks here.

With their own palaces and cave dwellings, they no longer needed to keep Yu'er in the Blood Mud Space.

Back at Barracks No. 36 on the front mountain, there was a meal prepared by Yu'er on the table.

"Yu'er, I'm back!"

Yu'er was asleep, lying on the table, in a deep sleep, and did not wake up.

Li Weiyi touched the bowl and plate; they were already cold!
The Dongxu Camp provides Blood Valley Pills; taking one will keep you from hunger for ten days.

But Yu'er often stayed alone in the Blood Mud Space or in the cramped barracks, with nothing to do, so she insisted on cooking for him every night.

I got home a little late today.

Li Weiyi sat down, picked up his chopsticks and started eating. His gaze fell on the cloth bag that Yu'er was carrying on her shoulder. He recalled the image of Yu'er often writing and jotting down notes by herself and wondered what she was writing down.

Glancing at the sleeping little girl, Li Weiyi carefully reached out, opened the cloth bag, took out the booklet inside, and began to read it.

"Today, my master locked me in the Blood Mud Space again. He said he would never abandon me, and he never keeps his word."

……

"Today is another day of being locked up. My master is definitely hiding some secret that he doesn't want me to know. He no longer cares about me like he used to, keeping me by his side all the time. He's becoming more and more indifferent."

……

Li Weiyi flipped through her notes from the last few dozen days and immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly closed the book and put it back. The little girl was clearly very emotional; she had poured out all her innermost thoughts in there.

"I should have kept Yin Twenty-Four with her! If the Grand Palace Master ever looks back on this, won't you make a note of it?"

"We must break through to the Holy Spirit Mind Master realm as soon as possible and take her to the Fire Abyss."

Time flies, and another month has passed.

Having arrived at Dongxu Camp, it has been two and a half months. The time spent cultivating and refining talismans inside the cocoon is nearly a year. Finally, the Divine Dao Seed broke through to the eighth level, and the number of scriptures on the Dao Fruit reached 12,000.

During this time, Li Weiyi urged the jade boat to go to the foot of the Fusang Divine Tree to collect the dew of the midnight sun.

Using the Midday Dew and Xihe Flower as the main ingredients, along with alchemy auxiliary materials purchased from Dongxu Camp, he finally refined three batches of Midday True Pills. After deducting the five pills he used to reach the peak of the Nine-Star Spiritual Master, he had sixty-four pills left.

With the help of the power of the Lesser Yang Star, the Heavenly Soul was condensed to 60% at an incredible speed.

"Mastering the method of refining the True Pill of the Midnight Sun is equivalent to having a continuous source of wealth. With this skill, even if you go to a sect or clan, they would have to treat me like royalty."

Li Weiyi put the sixty-four Polar Day True Pills into the pill bottle, feeling an unprecedented sense of joy. Stepping out of the Cocoon of Time, he looked at the two phoenixes, whose bodies had grown to two feet long: "If we had a six-thousand-year-old elixir, which of you could break through to immortality?"

Both Da Feng and Er Feng were full of confidence and made solemn promises. Then, they started arguing over the 6,000-year-old elixir.

"Stop arguing! Try to sell these sixty-four Polar Day True Pills and buy two plants, one for each moth."

Li Weiyi put the seven Phoenix Winged Moth Kings into his insect bag, glanced at the pitiful-looking Yu'er who seemed to be silently angry, exited the Blood Mud Space, and headed towards the Yanjue Mountain camp.

Linlang Cave Mansion.

Li Weiyi handed a True Pill of Polar Day to Taishi Yu: "How is the pill I refined?"

"The True Pill of Polar Day, you refined it? Impossible, how long have you been familiar with pill formulas?"

Tai Shiyu was both surprised and suspicious, knowing that Li Weiyi had only gained the opportunity to look through the formula for the True Pill of Polar Day after arriving at Dongxu Camp and earning 30,000 merit points.

He took the pill, examined it, and gently sniffed it.

It was very bright and hot, like compressed stars, with a strong fragrance, shrouded in a thin cloud of red.

"It's the True Pill of Polar Day! But it has an unusual floral and woody fragrance. Wait a minute, the light and heat of this pill you refined are several times stronger than those of ordinary True Pills of Polar Day."

Tai Shiyu was truly startled and quickly put the pill back into the bottle to prevent the radiance and energy of the pill from dissipating.

The polar day dew collected under the Fusang Divine Tree is several times more concentrated in energy than that bought from outside.

Moreover, the other main ingredient used by Li Weiyi was Xihe flower.

Li Weiyi smiled and said, "I have taken it. Its effect is three times that of the ordinary Polar Day True Pill. Taking one pill can advance one from the early stage of Seven Star Spiritual Master to the peak, saving at least several years of arduous cultivation of Condensing Light."

"Dongxu Camp sells each Yongquan coin for 800,000 yuan. How much do you think I should sell it for?"

Tai Shiyu said, "No wonder you've been frequently exchanging for holidays lately and buying a large amount of alchemy materials. How many pills have you refined?"

“A few dozen, I suppose!” Li Weiyi said. Taishi Yu’s eyes widened as he struggled to process his shock: “You succeeded in refining pills in just over two months, and you’ve produced dozens of them? Do you know what you’re saying? Do you know that even families with Holy Spirit King Mind Masters would be terrified? Like the one in front of you.”

"Do you think I need to joke?" Li Weiyi asked.

Tai Shiyu got up and paced back and forth, gradually calming down: "The pill is a good pill, but I'm afraid it won't sell well. The pill-refining materials you bought at a sky-high price have very high costs, so it's impossible to sell them at a low price. Each pill will cost at least two million Yongquan coins. Who do you think can afford that? Even if I bought one, it would be a huge financial burden."

Li Weiyi said, "That's why I came to you. You know everyone in the recruit camp. See who needs it and is rich enough to sell it to privately. I'll set the price at two million Yongquan coins for you, and I'll take half of that."

"Two million Spring Coins, if it really has three times the effect, many people will definitely buy it. Especially those nine-star spirit masters who want to break through to the peak realm as soon as possible."

Tai Shiyu then smiled again: "Take half a percent, you said it yourself, don't complain later that I'm making too much."

"If we're going to make money, we should do it together. I'll refine the pills, and you can distribute the goods."

Li Wei first took out ten coins and handed them to him.

The two left the Linglang Cave and arrived at the recruit camp. Taishi Yu went straight to find a buyer, while Li Weiyi headed towards the first team. On the way, they were blocked by a figure.

“Li Shenyin, I am Xue Yucai of the Holy Dark Clan. I have long admired your name. It is said that my cousin Xue Chucai was defeated by you.” Xue Yucai looked to be in his early twenties, with pupils that gleamed slightly with bloodlust and a blood-red mark between his brows.

Li Weiyi sensed the aura of a Holy Spirit Master emanating from the other party: "Second Team Captain, what can I do for you?"

"Don't misunderstand! You and he had a fair fight, and you agreed beforehand that it would be a life-or-death battle. It's already very magnanimous of you to spare his life."

Xue Yucai, who has been flattered by many mind masters recently, couldn't help but adopt the demeanor of a Holy Spirit Mind Master and changed the subject, saying, "But the Blood Pool Silver Sea he wears is the battle sword used by the Blood Lord in his youth. It has nurtured consciousness and the spirit of an emperor, and has been given a lot of meaning. Only the younger generation of leaders of the Holy Dark Family can use it... Can you understand what it means to me?"

“I completely understand,” Li Weiyi said.

Xue Yucai said, "In the Cave Ruins Camp, we are comrades-in-arms, partners in life and death fighting together against the Netherworld of the Dead. There is no need to break military regulations, much less to resort to conspiracies and tricks. Give it to me, and I will help you resolve the feud with the Holy Dark Family, turning hostility into friendship. How about it?"

Li Weiyi took out the Blood Pool Silver Sea from the boundary bag.

Under the influence of magical energy, the silver blade revealed dense, blood-red scriptures. An invisible force, capable of shaking souls and consciousness, spread outwards.

“The knife is indeed a fine knife! But it seems that the Holy Spirit Master wants me to give it to you directly?” Li Weiyi said.

Xue Yucai said, "It's not a gift, but an opportunity to resolve the grudges between us. Xue Chucai is able to wield this knife, so you should understand his status and position in the Holy Dark Family. The family will not let this go easily. But if I go back and report that you returned it voluntarily, then there is room for negotiation."

Li Weiyi put the Blood Pool Silver Sea back into his spatial bag: "Perhaps that's really what you think, but I think you're being too presumptuous! Moreover, you're overestimating your importance in the family. Do you really think you can resolve this grudge?"

In the camp, many eyes were fixed on the two of them.

After all, these two are both incredibly famous and incredibly talented.

"The dull and monotonous recruit camp of Nian Shiwei seems to have become a little more interesting." Someone stood on the top of the pavilion, looking down, and whispered this.

In the past month, Xue Yucai has been praised by countless mentalists and martial artists, and everyone respects him. But now, Li Weiyi has embarrassed him in front of everyone, making him lose face.

His expression turned serious: "Xue Chucai lost to you in a public challenge, losing the Blood Pool Silver Sea. My public challenge to reclaim the Blood Pool Silver Sea isn't excessive, is it?"

Outside the camp.

"What is your cultivation level? What is his cultivation level? Blood Jade Material, I think you've been praised too much lately and have lost yourself a bit." Qing Zijin's voice came from afar.

As the bells rang out one after another.

A beautiful figure, who had been away from the camp for a month and a half, appeared outside the camp gate, holding a soul-shaking bell, followed by a dozen withered corpses.

These mummies, like a layer of skin covering bones, wore the uniform robes of a certain sect and exuded a very powerful aura. They were all martial artists in the Longevity Realm in life.

They all had corpse-protecting talismans affixed to their bodies.

"The Deputy Valiant Guard is back!"

"It's the captain! The captain is finally back."

……

A large number of spiritualists came to the camp gate to greet them.

Li Weiyi hadn't expected Qing Zijin to speak up for him, and his gaze turned towards the entrance. The graceful figure in cyan, along with the corpse spirit behind her, entered, surrounded by a group of spirit masters.

Her cold, beautiful eyes fell on Xue Yucai: "A Holy Spirit Master challenging a Spirit Master? Don't bring the arrogant and domineering habits of the Holy Dark Family to the Cave Ruins Camp. You can challenge me; I know you're not convinced you lost during your recruit assessment."

Xue Yucai said, "I only said I would challenge him, not that I would challenge him now. I can wait until he breaks through to the Holy Spirit Mind Master realm. In short, the Blood Pool Silver Sea must be retrieved. If I don't, the family will take action, and it won't be as simple as just a challenge."

Qing Zijin was immediately rendered speechless by his watertight words.

"I can accept your challenge right now! If you defeat me, I will offer you the Blood Pool and the Silver Sea with both hands. But what if you lose?" Li Weiyi's voice suddenly rang out.

Xue Yucai was quite surprised and looked over with an incredulous expression.

A commotion erupted within the camp. Some admired Li Weiyi's boldness and eagerly anticipated the duel between a top expert below the Longevity Realm and a Holy Spirit Mind Master. Others felt that Li Weiyi was blindly confident and didn't understand the difference in skill levels.

Qing Zijin's eyes flashed with a chilling aura as she glared at Li Weiyi: "I think you've lost yourself too! Defeating Sheng Wulian, is that so great? Any Holy Spirit Mind Master could easily defeat him. Taking one of my Yin-Breaking Thunder Talismans is not the reason you've underestimated your strength."

Tai Shiyu rushed over quickly, very worried, and whispered, "Why fight like this? Once you break through to the Holy Spirit Mind Master realm, with your strength, defeating him will be no problem. His array formation skills are extraordinary, and the blood-red spiritual light he cultivates is extremely strange."
