Becoming an Immortal Starts with a Hundredfold Increase

Yun Que followed Qiao Sanshi's gaze and looked towards the door.

My gaze passed through the small courtyard made of bluestone and landed on the figure sitting cross-legged outside the circular ceremonial gate.

A faint, milky-white glow enveloped Li Lang.

"Clang..."

Qiao Sanshi suddenly stood up, causing the octagonal table to tremble violently.

The teacup on the table tilted, and the tea spilled out.

The teacup spun around and fell to the ground, rolling to the lark's feet.

"This...how is this possible?"

Qiao Sanshi's trembling voice rang out.

His eyes narrowed, and the composure he had just displayed vanished completely, replaced by something unbelievable.

It wasn't just him.

The others who were originally sitting cross-legged not far from Li Lang also sensed the abnormality and opened their eyes to look down at the tree.

next second.

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 10 ...

The entire room fell silent.

Everyone even forgot to remove the hand seals from their hands, remaining in their original postures, sitting there blankly.

How long has it been?

It was just a midday.

The essence of the sun that they had spent two or three months, or even half a year, without being able to sense was easily obtained by this newcomer.

The group looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock.

This……

It's absolutely outrageous.

Their gazes fell once again on Li Lang under the tree.

At this moment, his eyes were closed, a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead, his temples throbbed wildly, his lips trembled, and they even turned a little pale.

"I didn't expect the side effects to be so strong."

Li Lang inwardly groaned.

Although he sensed the essence of the sun, he clearly felt his divine sense being rapidly depleted.

A fine, tingling sensation spread along the nerves, and the meridians also began to feel sore and tingling.

"We have to hurry." Li Lang gritted his teeth.

The hands quickly rotate and change into mudras in front of the chest.

Each time a hand seal is changed.

The milky white light on his body became increasingly solid.

The stinging pain all over my body intensified.

"lead--"

A low growl exploded in his heart.

Li Lang formed a hand seal and gestured towards the void.

next moment.

The essence of the sun in the world was drawn along the hand seal, transforming into a barely perceptible white light that gathered between his eyebrows, forming a pattern before disappearing instantly.

"Open the pulse—close it!"

As soon as the triple amplification was withdrawn, a sudden burst of stinging pain erupted in my meridians, accompanied by a surge of soreness, numbness, and pain.

Li Lang suddenly opened his eyes, panting heavily.

It felt like most of my strength had been drained away in an instant, my mind went blank, my eyelids felt heavy, and all I wanted to do was close my eyes and fall asleep.

He forced himself to stay upright, his teeth grinding together as he endured the weakness and stinging pain churning within him.

Li Lang took a deep breath and quickly regulated his breathing.

It took a good while before things started to improve.

He slowly opened his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and summoned the control panel.

【Technique: Zheng Yang Pei Yuan Jue (Beginner) 1/300, Characteristics: Upper-grade Mortal Rank, Absorbs the essence of the sun, strengthens the foundation and nourishes the source, stops at the ninth level of Qi Refining】

Notice the changes on the panel.

A smile involuntarily crept onto Li Lang's lips.

"I've finally gotten the hang of it."

"I didn't expect the system to have side effects, and they're so scary."

"It seems we can only use it in critical moments from now on."

Just as he was pondering this, a pair of boots appeared before Li Lang.

He looked up instinctively.

Qiao Sanshi stood in front of me, back to the sunlight.

Li Lang quickly stood up, clasped his hands in a salute, and said, "Senior Qiao."

"Um!"

Qiao Sanshi looked Li Lang up and down.

In just a few hours, one can sense the essence of the sun and successfully form hand seals to establish a connection.

In terms of comprehension alone, he's practically a genius.

As someone who oversees the cultivation of the sons-in-law in the outer courtyard, this is the first time he has ever seen someone with such comprehension.

Unfortunately……

His innate spiritual root was too poor.

Even the most ordinary-grade spiritual root, with such comprehension, has a promising future.

"Senior Qiao?"

Seeing that Qiao Sanshi remained silent for a long time, Li Lang raised his eyes and called out softly again.

Qiao Sanshi withdrew his gaze. "Sensing the essence of the sun already consumes divine sense, but I didn't expect you to consume such a huge amount."

Although his words were plain, Li Lang could clearly hear that they were no longer as cold as when they first met, but had gained a touch of warmth.

"Come in with me."

Qiao Sanshi turned and walked into the courtyard.

Li Lang followed closely behind.

The moment he walked through the ceremonial gate.

A barely perceptible ray of light spread out like ripples.

Li Lang raised an eyebrow slightly.

Formation?

Followed by.

A warm sensation washed over me, relieving much of my fatigue.

I looked up.

In the center of the courtyard stood a dark blue-green stone tablet, about half a person's height, with runes flowing across its surface, used specifically for testing the power of spells.

Behind the Trial Stele is the main building. Four steps down, two spirit glass trees are planted symmetrically on the left and right, their branches and leaves lush and green, gleaming with a faint glassy luster in the sunlight.

The ground on both sides of the trial stele was paved with small stone bricks, and Wang Ergou and seven or eight others sat on the east side.

More than ten people were sitting on the west side, clearly separating the two sides.

The courtyard house wasn't large, but it exuded a sense of tranquility.

"Brother Lang?"

Wang Ergou cried out in alarm.

The people who had been meditating cross-legged woke up one after another, got up and stretched their limbs, and when they saw Li Lang, they all cast curious glances at him.

"Brother Lang, what brings you in?"

Wang Ergou hurried to Li Lang, his face full of anxiety, and tried to pull him out of the outer gate, saying, "Those who haven't entered are forbidden from entering the academy, hurry up and get out..."

"Senior Qiao brought me in."

Li Lang glanced sideways at Qiao Sanshi, who was walking towards the main house.

"Oh!" Wang Ergou breathed a sigh of relief.

"Huh?" The next moment, he suddenly looked at Li Lang again. "You mean...you...you've mastered the basics?"

Wang Ergou's voice wasn't loud, but it instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the courtyard.

Li Lang nodded slightly in response.

Wang Ergou was taken aback at first.

His face was immediately filled with ecstasy, and he lightly punched Li Lang on the shoulder, "Brother Lang, you're amazing!"

"It took me a full two weeks to get the hang of it, and you only took one morning?"

The courtyard was quiet for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, a gasp of shock could be heard.

The way everyone looked at Li Lang changed from curiosity to disbelief and envy.

Whispers could be faintly heard coming from the west side.

Congratulations, Brother Li!

The cultivators who had accompanied Li Lang also stepped forward and clasped their fists in greeting.

"Brother Li's talent is exceptional, which we all envy."

"Hahaha... I thought I was fast enough to get started in ten days, but compared to Brother Li, I'm ashamed."

Seeing them clasp their hands in congratulations, Li Lang quickly returned the greeting.

"snort!"

Just then.

A cold snort came from afar.

At the same time, Li Lang noticed a sharp gaze falling on him.

He followed the gaze.

A dozen or so cultivators, who were meditating cross-legged on the west side, surrounded a young man.

He saw Li Lang looking at him.

The young man disdainfully withdrew his gaze.

"His name is Gao Ning, Gao Jie's younger brother. He is the first person in our Foreign Languages ​​Department to achieve minor success in cultivating the Zheng Yang Pei Yuan Jue."

Wang Ergou lowered his voice and introduced, "Those people are from the West Wing, and they've never gotten along with us."

As they were talking.

Qiao Sanshi came out of the main room carrying a food box.

He glanced at everyone and said, "Go and have your meal. After that, get back to work."

Upon hearing this, everyone headed towards the west room.

"Li Lang!"

Just as Li Lang was about to leave with Wang Ergou and the others, Qiao Sanshi's voice rang out from behind him.

Li Lang turned around, bowed, and clasped his hands in greeting, "Senior Qiao."

Qiao Sanshi stepped forward and handed over the food box he was holding. "Yun Que just delivered this."

"Thank you very much, Senior Qiao." Li Lang quickly accepted it.

Qiao Sanshi nodded and turned back to the main room.

Li Lang carried the food box and headed towards the west room.

I just stepped into the west room.

When he looked up and saw the scene before him, he was stunned.
