143 Death in the Tomb of Life
Dong Xi looked at Li Li in surprise. She did not expect Li Li to ask such a question.
Dong Xi said calmly, “Even if a thousand insects die, a day passes nonetheless. We cultivators may have about a thousand years of life, but in the eyes of demon beasts, isn’t it only a few days? You also know that Immortal cultivation is a heaven-defying cultivation. Since that’s the case, why don’t you work hard? After all, if you don’t advance, you’ll fall behind!”
When Li Li heard this, it was as if he had been hit in the head. He only came back to his senses after a long time, and the way he looked at Dong Xi also gradually changed.
Li Li could not help but sigh. “Junior Sister, you have such awareness at such a young age. It really makes me blush with shame. I’ve really lived my hundreds of years in vain!”
Dong Xi did not expect that she would succeed in acting tough again. She looked at Li Li in surprise. Sure enough, the world of Immortal cultivators did not care about looks like his previous life. Here, any young man who looked very young could be older than Dong Xi’s ancestors!
Dong Xi’s expression was serious as she tried to correct her twisted form of address. Dong Xi said, “Why don’t I just call you Martial Uncle!”
Li Li: “?”
Why couldn’t he praise her? You still want to change the topic? How could this be?!
Li Li said with some hidden bitterness, “Junior Sister, are you looking down on my old age?”
Dong Xi did not dare to say this directly and immediately said, “Senior Brother, how can you be old? In the world of cultivators, you are considered young. You can’t undervalue yourself like this!”
The hidden bitterness on Li Li’s face lessened a little. He said, “I’ve gained a lot from being with Junior Sister these few days. Just now, Junior Sister’s words woke me up from my dream. I’ve come to a realization and need to go into seclusion to cultivate for a while.”
Hearing Li Li’s words, Dong Xi was overjoyed. She could finally cultivate alone for a while!
Previously, it was fortunate that Li Liwan knew to leave in the evening. Otherwise, Dong Xi’s did not even know where to hide.
“I wish you all the best in advance, Senior Brother,” said Dong Xi immediately with cupped fists.
After watching Li Li leave, Dong Xicai took out a piece of paper again and started to write and calculate.
If the tournament could not proceed as planned, Ke Xin would have to stay in the outer sect for a longer period of time. the difference between the inner and outer sect was huge. It was not just the resource merchants but also the cultivation techniques. This was not a good thing for Ke Xin.
Dong Xi used the skill she had just learned to read Ke Xin’s fortune.
According to the divination, there would be some gossip while waiting. As long as Ke Xin appraised it, there would not be any major issues.
Dong Xi immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Thinking of the inner tank in her Dantian, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and directly calculated the great snake’s fortune.
However, this divination was very strange. At first, it was calculated that something good would happen in the next two days, but it seemed that someone was interfering, and the divination became messy.
The more she calculated, the more unclear it was.
Could it be that she had not learned it yet, so it was only right that she could not calculate it properly?
At this moment, Su Cheng, who was standing in the valley, looked at the sky and asked, “Is it Destiny Valley?”
Those fortune-tellers from Destiny Valley always wanted to find out where he was. Now that his inner core was still in that girl’s body, they could be considered to have confused the heaven’s secrets. However, this time, Destiny Valley had found him. It was even more effective than a dog’s nose. It made him want to get rid of Destiny Valley!
Su Cheng stepped on the spirit vein that the Zhang family bought and said, “Using the spirit vein to seal that Huan Ye is really a waste of God’s gift!”
The snake tail knocked on the barrier a few times, and Huan Ye opened his blood-red eyes. After seeing who it was, his face was filled with anger, and a thick demonic Qi spread out. Huan Ye said fiercely, “You actually still dare to come?”
Su Cheng looked down at Huan Ye, his eyes locked on to him like he was his prey. “Is there anything I don’t dare to do?”
With a casual wave of his tail, there was no spiritual energy fluctuation in the surroundings, and the Huan Ye let out a painful roar.
Huan Ye roared, “If you have the ability, let me out! All you do is stand there and rely on a human’s barrier and seal!”
With killing intent in his eyes, he stood on the barrier and casually extracted the spirit vein.
The enchantment that had been operating on the spirit vein also had a flaw.
The vibration of spiritual Qi could be felt within a thousand miles of the valley. The Ningtian Sect was the first to know about this news.
The Master of the Ningtian Sect, Wei Nan, asked again in disbelief, “What? You’re saying that someone broke the seal on Huan Ye?”
The disciple did not dare to hide anything and immediately said, “Sect Master, it’s absolutely true. According to the news sent back by the disciples who went to investigate, the entire mountain range is filled with demonic Qi. They were about to activate the protective shield to go in and investigate, but they couldn’t last more than 15 minutes!”
