#262 - Made a fortune
The night was as dark as ink, and the cold wind was biting, but the secret chamber was brightly lit, as if it were daytime.
Li Chengfeng stood outside the secret chamber, gazing at the tightly closed door, a ripple of emotion stirring in his heart.
He did not enter the secret chamber with the others, knowing full well the dangers within, where life and death were unpredictable.
However, he couldn't help but be curious about what conspiracies and schemes were hidden within that sealed space.
Li Chengfeng gently closed his eyes, his mind conjuring up his own Life Realm space, that seemingly boundless dimensional world.
A thought flickered through his mind, pondering: If I were in this sealed space, could I perhaps遁入 (escape into) the dimensional world and avoid the impending storm?
However, this thought was fleeting, as he knew he didn't have absolute certainty and was unwilling to take the risk.
At this point, his goal had been achieved, and the Han clan had been reduced to ashes under his strategy.
He felt no remorse in his heart; in his eyes, these people were inherently deserving of death.
In this world of cultivation, it's either you die or I perish; he had long been accustomed to the killing and strife.
However, he didn't want to linger here any longer, as time was of the essence.
He took a deep breath, and with a shift of his body, he harnessed the power of space, disappearing into the night like a phantom.
Several days later, Li Chengfeng had already left the city where the secret chamber was located, flying towards the distant Qi Kingdom.
Behind him, the city had been reduced to ruins, as if narrating a tragic history.
However, Li Chengfeng did not look back; his heart was set only on the upcoming goal—the Qingyun Sect of Qi Kingdom.
During the flight, Li Chengfeng couldn't help but think of the treasures in the secret chamber.
Lou Lan had already sorted and organized all the treasures, a scene that almost made Li Chengfeng's jaw drop.
The Blood Clan's accumulation of thousands of years was so abundant.
Although these treasures were not considered good items in the hands of the Blood Clan's ancestor, Han Zhimeng, they were an unimaginable fortune for Li Chengfeng.
There were three million high-grade spirit stones alone, thirty million mid-grade spirit stones, and even one hundred million low-grade spirit stones.
Such wealth was enough to shock Li Chengfeng.
However, Li Chengfeng was not blinded by this immense wealth.
He knew that the resources he needed were far more than these; he needed resources that were dozens of times more than ordinary people, or even more.
Therefore, he had to work hard to earn resources while cultivating and comprehending.
Harnessing the power of space, he slowly took these treasures out of his upgrade space, and had the substitute puppet build a treasure vault, placing these treasures into it according to their categories.
In the treasure vault, spiritual herbs were piled up like mountains, and various rare medicinal materials were dazzling.
Li Chengfeng was overjoyed, as these spiritual herbs were exactly the treasures he needed for cultivation.
In addition to this, there were many other treasures, such as magic weapons and talismans.
The most precious of these was the thirty talismans that could unleash the Three Elements Blast ten times.
Li Chengfeng had obtained these talismans at the cost of all his talismans, and now he was finally rewarded.
Li Chengfeng was excited; these talismans were crucial to him.
He planned to buy some more to replenish them after arriving at the Treasure Pavilion in Qi Kingdom.
These Three Elements Blast talismans not only gave him new ideas for his spells, but also filled him with anticipation for the future.
He would create his own art of explosion, making this cultivation world tremble because of him!
He categorized all the spells he knew, carefully deducing how to combine them, hoping to integrate three different spells to form an unprecedented explosive force.
He knew that this was not easy and required endless wisdom and courage.
The Aphasia Art in his hand, although able to disperse power, had limited power; and although the Wither and Flourish Finger could enhance the explosive power, it still could not compare with the Three Elements Blast.
He knew that to survive in the upcoming Profound Light Continent, he must have a skill, otherwise he would face endless killing and war.
He had a large number of spiritual herb pills, but these pills were only for replenishing spiritual energy and could not directly improve his cultivation.
He would sell these pills and exchange them for spiritual herbs suitable for his cultivation, refining the Three Elements Pill. Only in this way could he improve his strength faster and meet future challenges.
As space shifted, Li Chengfeng quietly left the Frozen Plains and headed to Qi Kingdom.
His whereabouts were unknown, as if he had disappeared into the air.
On the Frozen Mountain, the plans made by the Han clan and others stirred up the entire plain, and countless experts were sent to find Li Chengfeng's whereabouts.
However, Li Chengfeng, harnessing the power of space, even if he brushed past the opponent's head, the opponent would not be able to detect him.
He did not take action, because he knew that once he took action, he might expose his whereabouts and increase the risk of going to Qi Kingdom.
On his must-kill list, he wrote down the names of Lou Xueyun and Zhongli Meiying.
There were already many people on this list, and they were basically all Li Chengfeng's enemies.
And ranked first was Tian Ku, the powerful enemy who had almost killed him, but had already died under his butcher's knife.
After two months of long journey, Li Chengfeng finally left the Frozen Plains and entered a warm and flowery southern region.
The scenery here was pleasant, completely different from the killing and war he had experienced before.
However, he did not relax his vigilance because of this, because he knew that danger was everywhere in the cultivation world.
He let the puppet drive the space forward, while he meditated and cultivated, deduced his exercises, and improved his secret techniques.
In the past three months, he had gained a lot, and his strength had been stabilized and improved.
He knew that he now possessed the Nine Blood Shadows, the Kunpeng phantom behind him, and the two major spaces, and there were too many things that needed to be improved, and the resources consumed were like a gold-swallowing beast.
After three months of hard training and a large consumption of the Three Elements Pill, Li Chengfeng finally stabilized his Foundation Establishment Initial Stage.
He knew that if he continued to practice at this speed, it would take three years to advance to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.
But he also knew that although the path he had chosen was extremely difficult, everything belonged to him, and there were no shortcomings.
Moreover, the exercises and secret techniques he practiced were all self-produced and self-sold, and outsiders did not know his weaknesses at all, which was also the root of his ability to win by surprise.
Li Chengfeng carefully explored within a radius of six hundred miles with his divine sense, and after confirming that there were no abnormalities, he made a decision.
He released Jia Hai, who had been sealed, from the Hell Space.
During the time that Jia Hai was sealed, his heart was full of fear and anxiety. He was worried that Li Chengfeng would卸磨杀驴 (kick him away after he had served his purpose). After all, after completing the killing mission, he was ruthlessly sealed.
Jia Hai, who saw the light again, moved his hands and feet that had been sealed for a long time, and looked at Li Chengfeng standing there.
He was uneasy, but more grateful, and thanked Li Chengfeng: "Thank you, Senior, for not killing me."
Li Chengfeng smiled and replied: "Why should I kill you? You helped me a lot this time. I rescued you from the Frozen Plains, which can be considered even."
"I, Li Chengfeng, don't want to owe anyone favors. Since it's even, then you take your Yangguan Road, and I'll cross my single-plank bridge."
"You don't have to call me Senior. In fact, we have the same realm, but we have different encounters."
After hearing this, Jia Hai immediately nodded in agreement and promised to keep Li Chengfeng's secret.
Li Chengfeng looked at him, smiled frankly, and said: "To be honest, the thing I trust the least is guarantees and heart demon oaths."
"If I didn't have the Soul Severing Technique, I would definitely kill you to silence you. But I have mastered the Soul Severing Technique, and I have decided to give you a chance to start over."
