The Ballad of Youth: Inheriting Daoji, Li Hanyi, the Escapee from Marriage

"His cultivation level has reached the peak of the Vajra Mortal Realm!"

"With the addition of the Fire Scorching Technique, I'm confident I can hold my own against even an elder at the Freedom Realm for the first fifty moves!"

"Hehe, speaking of which, I wonder if Daoji still has that 'Stretching Leg and Staring Eyes Pill'."

"I really wish I could have another one, so I could enter the Freedom Realm and catch up with Wuxin and that little Wushuang!"

As Lei Wujie walked up the stairs, a greedy, drooling smile appeared on his face!

Yes, he still hasn't forgotten the strange taste of that "stretching leg and glaring eye pill".

But don't people always say that bitter medicine is good for you?

That "Leg-Stretching and Eye-Staring Pill" is so effective, it would be strange if it weren't bitter!

However, if one can improve their cultivation level simply by enduring some "pain" in terms of taste, and without any side effects, then...

Not just him, but surely no one would refuse, right?

Lei Wujie chuckled foolishly, then continued his adventure through the pavilion!

Eleventh-floor guardian disciple, cultivation level: peak of second rank, passed!

The twelfth-level guardian disciple, whose cultivation level was at the peak of the second rank, was slightly stronger than the disciple on the previous level, but he still easily passed him!

Then there are the disciples guarding the thirteenth floor.

This disciple guarding the pavilion is quite strange. When he first entered, he could tell that the other party's cultivation had already entered the Vajra Mortal Realm, and even within the Vajra Mortal Realm, he had already traveled a considerable distance.

But the other person wouldn't fight him! They insisted on betting with him!

Even more absurdly, before he had even started, he already had another three hundred taels of debt.

It's only because of Lei Wujie, that little blockhead; otherwise, who would be the sucker?

The fact that the other party came to guard the pavilion was a sect mission, and there were rewards for it.

During the mission, if you don't perform the mission properly and instead try to understand some unfinished puzzle, even if you interrupt it, as long as you don't suffer from qi deviation, it's none of the business of the person who broke into the pavilion, right?

Of course, all of the above is based on the premise that the person who broke into the pavilion is not a fool.

But our Lei Wujie is just a stubborn fool, what can you do about it?

So, putting aside the debt for now, let's talk about the other party's requirement for passing the level, which is actually gambling with dice!

At first, Lei Wujie didn't realize what was happening. After losing twice, he didn't go downstairs to ask Xiao Se like in the original story. Instead, he used his strength, which surpassed that of the guardian disciple, Luo Mingxuan, to discover that the other party was cheating. After angrily rebuking the other party, the two started fighting!

In the end, Lei Wujie, with his Vajra Mortal Realm cultivation, defeated his opponent, gained his recognition, and they got to know each other.

Next up is the fourteenth floor, which is also the final battle against the Elder Guardian.

After Lei Wujie climbed up, he sensed that aura and immediately knew that the other party must be a powerful expert!

Of course, the opponent was indeed a strong person, but this strong person did not engage in a heated battle with him as Lei Wujie had imagined!

Because the other party knows Lei Wujie, and... they like to go easy on him!

That's right, the disciple guarding the fourteenth floor is none other than our senior brother of Snow Moon City—Tang Lian!

Speaking of Tang Lian, after his escort journey and his understanding of the true meaning of acting on one's heart, he has now broken through to the Free Realm!

Of course, if the two of them really have to fight, Lei Wujie can win if he uses the power of the fifth level of the Fire Scorching Technique with all his might and his opponent doesn't hold back!

The problem is, these are all good friends, and his current challenge to the pavilion is just a friendly sparring match, not a life-or-death battle.

In addition, Tang Lian actually admired Lei Wujie quite a bit and really hoped that he would become her junior brother.

So, he used his half-baked acting skills to deliberately let the opponent pass through the fourteenth level of the Heavenly Pavilion!

"Lei Wujie, the elder on the fifteenth floor is no ordinary person. Are you sure you don't want to rest for a day before going up?"

"No need, Daoji and the others are still waiting for me downstairs, I'll go up first!"

For various unknown reasons, Baili Dongjun, who originally intended to signal Tang Lian to let Lei Wujie go down and rest, and to find an opportunity to meet him and give him some pointers, did not make the decision as in the original story.

Even because of Lei Wujie's haste, Tang Lian hadn't yet told him that the guardian elder of the fifteenth floor was Lei Yunhe.

Lei Wujie then happily ran upstairs.

"This silly kid, he's really got a lot of energy!"

"But it should be fine now. The elder guarding the fifteenth floor is his senior uncle, so there shouldn't be any problems."

"It was Master who asked me to invite Master Daoji to meet him... tsk, that's a bit tricky."

"Or... should we just tell him the truth?"

Watching Lei Wujie's departing figure, Tang Lian first laughed and scolded, then fell into deep thought.

"How about I go back and ask my master if he has any good wine? If he does, it shouldn't be too difficult to invite Master Daoji, right?"

…………

Chapter 69 Lei Yunhe: I will test you properly!

"I didn't expect this little blockhead to be so skilled in martial arts! He actually made it to the 14th floor in one go!"

"But the fifteenth floor is guarded by elders from Snow Moon City, whose strength is extremely powerful."

"I wonder if he'll be able to make it?"

At this moment, they were part of the crowd gathered at Dengtian Pavilion.

Some people can say "little blockhead" quite smoothly.

Hearing this, would you guess that it was Xiao Se or Li Xiuyuan commenting on Lei Wujie?

Unfortunately not.

The person who, like them, kept calling them "little idiot" was actually that one.

Li Fansong said, "Because of a meal and drinks, we temporarily bonded over!"

There was nothing he could do; he genuinely didn't know Lei Wujie's name, but he had heard Li Xiuyuan and Xiao Se call him that, so he just used it.

Of course, he knew perfectly well that "Little Fool" wasn't the other person's real name...

"Alas, it's a pity that the Heavenly Pavilion is closed. People outside can only see how many levels the other party has passed, but they can't see the battle inside."

"This really wasn't as enjoyable as I'd hoped!"

Li Fansong muttered to himself in disappointment, looking at the rows of lights that had come on, his face showing a complete lack of interest.

Ultimately, if it weren't for curiosity about Master Daoji's so-called finger-calculation...

Li Fansong has probably already reached the top of the pavilion, witnessed various masters, and had a great time fighting them!

How could things have turned out like they are now, with nothing to even look at?

I really don't understand why these guys get so excited and swarm over as soon as they hear someone has broken into the pavilion, discussing it so enthusiastically. Can't they see anything at all? What's there to discuss?

"Haha, young benefactor, didn't you say you were also an expert in divination? I was the one demonstrating it before."

"Why don't you also try to figure out who the guardian elder of the fifteenth floor is, and what their cultivation level is?"

At that moment, Li Xiuyuan's voice reached Li Fansong's ears.

He first turned his body away, and then, after realizing what the other person meant, a hint of embarrassment slowly appeared on his face.

How could he possibly master such a method that calculates from scratch without any hints?

Even among the younger generation of Wangcheng Mountain, well… his swordsmanship is undoubtedly the best, and his other skills, such as divination and aura observation, have also reached the first level, placing him among the top ranks.

Even that level of achievement is impossible!

However, Xiao Feixuan, who was standing next to him, was the one who was supposed to carry the next generation of "heavenly fortune" of Wangcheng Mountain. He was very skilled in divination and his level had long surpassed Xiao Feixuan's!

As mentioned before, his first level of Qi Observation Technique is not really a comparison in that sentence, the person being compared.

This refers to Xiao Feixuan.

"Hmph, don't try to make things difficult for my junior uncle. Let me figure out who the guardian elder of the fifteenth floor really is!"

Having received a wink from Li Fansong, Xiao Feixuan, who had always felt that Li Xiuyuan was a fraud and was still angry, made his move.

He slowly led everyone to the back of the crowd. Well... there wasn't much to see anyway; those tiered lights were really boring.

And also to avoid attracting too much attention, they came to the back of the crowd, and Xiao Feixuan began to exert his strength!

He first used the power of the Great Dragon Elephant to create a platform, and then took out professional divination tools from his package. After a series of operations, he entered the state of "seeing the future" that Li Xiuyuan had calculated with his fingers.

While Xiao Se remained outwardly calm upon witnessing this scene, he was inwardly deeply shocked.

"Great Dragon Elephant Strength, isn't that one of the five advanced secret techniques of Wangcheng Mountain? How old is this kid? He's already cultivating both the Heavenly Dao and the Martial Dao."

"And they've achieved such great success?"

"This... I understand now. The master they've been referring to is none other than Xuanjian Immortal (from the TV series, you know what I mean) Zhao Yuzhen, the current head of Wangcheng Mountain, right?"

"Then these two...could they be the next generation of people from Wangcheng Mountain who possess both 'martial fortune' and 'heavenly fortune'?"

Xiao Se secretly deduced this in his heart, and then looked at the two people next to him. Li Fansong's face was full of confidence, while Li Xiuyuan's smile remained unchanged.

About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn has passed. Xiao Feixuan, looking puzzled, finished his work and put away the props placed on the Great Dragon Elephant Force.

"How is it, Fei Xuan? Have you figured out the identity and cultivation level of the Elder Guardian?"

Xiao Feixuan shook his head upon hearing this.

"I didn't figure out their specific identity. Their cultivation level is far higher than mine. Although they're currently at the Free and Easy Realm, back then..."

“That was definitely a powerful expert above the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm! That’s why the face I ‘saw’ was very blurry.”

"However, based on a glimpse of the future I glimpsed later, it seems the other party is using martial arts related to thunderclaps, and then..."

"The guy in the red shirt seems to have been hit in the chest from the front and fell to the ground."

Xiao Feixuan truthfully stated his calculations.

"What? He was defeated? He didn't make it past the fifteenth floor?"

"Then he won't be able to reach the top of the pavilion, and he won't be able to ask the Sword Immortal Li Hanyi about swordsmanship?"

As Li Fansong spoke, he turned his gaze to Li Xiuyuan.

There was no direct questioning, since the future is uncertain and calculations are not always 100% accurate.
