Chapter 736: The Great Dao Realm (Grand Finale)

  "I think Zhou Chong's words are not bad, if we don't kill the person who took the Down-Dan medicine, it will be hard to dispel the hatred in my heart." This time, the one who spoke up was the only female Jiedan stage cultivator, and unexpectedly, her first sentence was also so ruthless, wanting to put Fang Li to death.

  The old man with the long eyebrows, also a senior elder of the royal family, responded in agreement upon seeing her attitude: "I also think it should be this way, the Dragon Bone Purple Gold Pill must be the heart's blood of some pill-refining master, how could it be tainted by a junior?"

  Fang Xuzi was furious, and no matter what Fang Li said, he was still a member of the Fang family. These people were actually discussing killing him right in front of his face, completely disregarding him.

  "Hahaha, if you're determined to kill this junior of my clan, I won't be able to stop you. But let me remind you, after killing him, it's best to kill me too. If by chance I escape, the Wang, Wei, and Zhou families must each sacrifice ten elite warriors to accompany my clansman in death!" Fang Xuzi laughed furiously, no longer paying attention to Fang Li, and retreated ten zhang away, then pulled out a spirit talisman from his bosom and grasped it tightly.

  After hearing Fang Xuzi's words, the four old men all changed their faces and immediately discovered what was in his hand. They all exclaimed: "Yintun Fu!"

  The master's duel, apart from the law of elixirs and medicine, there is another crucial thing that can decide victory or defeat - the spiritual symbol. However, a good spiritual symbol is even rarer than elixirs, let alone low-level symbols like Shenyi Symbol and Ganlu Symbol which are not often seen in Yancheng City. The hidden escape symbol in Fang Xuzi's hand can escape hundreds of miles at once, making it an excellent escape tool, so the four old men couldn't surround and kill him even if they steeled themselves to do so.

  "We are all virtuous scholars of Yanjing City, why must we resort to violence over a mere third-grade elixir? Moreover, the elixir has already been consumed by someone from your clan. If you truly wish to tear each other apart and fight to the death, perhaps you can inflict significant losses on my three families, but the Fang family will surely be annihilated. You should think this through carefully."

  Fang Xuzi grasped the Hidden Escape Symbol tightly and said calmly, "It's not that I want to tear my face now, but they three want to cheat me Fang family, and take action against the younger generation of my Fang family."

  The eldest of the Wei family smiled, his stout body turned to the other three elders, and cupped his hands: "Can you all do me a favor and let this matter drop? Now that the Longgu Purple Gold Pill has been taken, it's impossible to get him to spit it out no matter how much we fuss. If this leads to internal strife among the four clans, it would be unworthy."

  Actually, when Fang Xuzi took out the hidden token, the Wang and Zhou families' top elders had already intended to retreat. At this time, seeing the Wei family's top elder say so, they naturally followed suit and nodded in agreement. However, since the Fang family obtained the Dragon Bone Purple Gold Pill, they must make amends to the other three families.

  After the final negotiation, Fang Xuzi gritted his teeth and agreed to compensate each family with 3,000 crystal stones. These crystal stones were neither too many nor too few, but for the opposing families, it was a great humiliation. Originally, snatching the spiritual elixir was about relying on one's own abilities, if not for the Fang family being too weak, how could they have allowed others to bully them?

  Fang Li sat on the ground, unaware that he had already wandered around the Ghost Gate for a circle. At this time, he was still making an all-out effort to break through and advance to the sixth level of Qi Refining Realm.

  With a sudden whoosh, some kind of barrier inside Fang Li's body was broken, and the true energy in his dantian suddenly became scorching hot, as if carrying some kind of mysterious and profound aura, which automatically rushed towards his limbs and bones, cleansing Fang Li's body.

  The medicinal power transformed from the Longgu Purple Golden Pill also stirred at this moment, and with the scorching flow of true energy, it actually transformed into a golden dragon's virtual shadow, which rushed against Fang Li's muscles, bones, and skin together.

  A scorching true energy washed over him, strengthening his tendons and bones by a fraction. The golden dragon's virtual shadow washed over him once more, but this time his tendons and bones were strengthened directly by three fractions! Fang Li, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, was shocked beyond words. It wasn't until now that he truly felt the effects of the Dragon Bone Purple Gold Pill. If this continued, it would be a trivial matter for his innate talent to reach the 9th grade.

  It was unknown how long it lasted, but Fang Li felt that his muscles and bones had been strengthened to the limit. No matter how the Golden Dragon's shadow washed over him, he couldn't strengthen them by even a hair. The only thing was that the medicinal properties of the Longgu Purple Gold Pill hadn't been fully digested yet, which seemed like a waste.

  With a surge of energy and blood, he thought of the Bodhi Dharma form in the Upper Dan Tian. Under the influence of ghosts and gods, the Golden Dragon suddenly rushed towards the Bodhi Tree species. At the moment when the Golden Dragon collided with the Bodhi Tree species, the Bodhi Tree species exploded with a loud bang, emitting a strong aura of wisdom, implying rejection without saying a word.

  That burst of wisdom energy surged in the upper dantian, and with a single blow, it dispersed the golden dragon's virtual shadow. Moreover, that breath did not stop there, as if it wanted to break through the skull, Fang Li only felt dizzy and painful, hurting severely.

  Fang Li regretted it afterwards, secretly scolding himself for being reckless. Originally, he wanted to see if the medicinal properties of Longgu Purple Gold Pill could stimulate the Bodhi Dharma Phase, and now he had gotten the result - it indeed could stimulate it, but now he didn't know how to wrap things up, his head was about to explode!

  Under helplessness, Fang Li could only hold onto Yuan Shouyi, expecting the aura to dissipate. However, at this moment, ten illusory shadows suddenly appeared in his Upper Dantian, happily devouring the aura emitted by the Bodhi tree seeds. Fang Li felt a daze in his divine sense, his thoughts constantly switching between these ten illusory shadows, as if they were all manifestations of "himself", indistinguishable from one another.

  "Could this be my three souls and seven spirits?" Fang Li's heart was filled with astonishment, this being the first time he had ever so clearly sensed their existence. Saying "they" might not be quite right, these were all manifestations of his own divine soul.

  In a daze, Fang Li's three souls and seven spirits had already completely absorbed the aura emitted by the Bodhi tree. When Fang Li came to, the ten illusory shadows had returned to their original positions. If not for his thickened divine sense, Fang Li would have doubted whether the scene just now was real or not.

  Fang Li didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly examined his own body's situation. At this time, his cultivation had stably entered the sixth level of Qi Refining Realm. Among the young generation in Yan City, he was considered top-notch. However, what surprised Fang Li the most was that his divine sense had actually also risen by one rank, reaching third rank. This also signified that he could begin to attempt to comprehend third-grade array techniques.

  Unexpectedly, the Bodhi Dharma phase was so useful. After swallowing some of the aura it released, his divine consciousness actually advanced to the third stage. Fang Li thought to himself and checked the Bodhi tree in the upper dantian again, only to find that its surface had become dull and lusterless, looking withered and dry.

  Fang Li was taken aback, and without thinking, he knew that the current state of affairs wasn't good. Looking at its wilted appearance, the four words "killing the chicken to get the eggs" suddenly popped into his mind. Fang Li let out a sigh, it seemed that he couldn't continue like this anymore. If he wasn't careful and ended up ruining it, he would suffer a huge loss.

  Opening his eyes, he found himself back home, but through the window, he saw that it was already dark outside.

  The door creaked open and a slightly aged figure walked in, seeing Fang Li's eyes open, couldn't help but exclaim: "You're awake!"

  Fang Li looked up and saw that it was the Supreme Elder. He thought of how the elder had risked his life to obtain the Dragon Bone Purple Gold Pill for him not long ago, and Fang Li's heart was filled with gratitude. He quickly got up and paid his respects, saying: "Greetings, Supreme Elder. Thank you, Supreme Elder, for obtaining the Dragon Bone Purple Gold Pill for me."

  The Supreme Elder, however, didn't seem to care and instead began to examine him with a delighted expression. He discovered that his cultivation had steadily entered the sixth realm of Qi Refining, and his innate talent had also advanced to ninth-grade. Suddenly, he burst into loud laughter, tears streaming down his face.

  "Great Elder?" Fang Li called out in a soft voice as he saw that his emotions were unstable.

  "It's nothing, I'm just happy." Fang Xuzi waved his hand to signal that Fang Li didn't need to worry, and then he grabbed Fang Li's hand again to examine his cultivation. After repeatedly confirming it, Fang Xuzi smiled once more: "Very good, very good! With such a genius in our Fang family, who will dare to bully us in the future!"

  Fang Xuzi was still thinking about the crystal stone being extorted by three other families not long ago. The crystal stone is a small matter, but the honor and shame are important.

  Although Fang Li didn't know what had happened to himself after taking the Longgu Purple Gold Pill, seeing Taishang's appearance, he must have been forced by those four old men, and suddenly felt a surge of anger, solemnly saying: "In two months' time, at the Four Clans Great Competition, I will definitely take first place, and let others not dare to underestimate my Fang family again!"

  Fang Xuzi nodded slightly and said, "Do your best, with your current qualifications, breaking through the foundation period is only a matter of time. A win or loss in a competition doesn't need to be taken too seriously. Moreover, although your cultivation isn't bad, you lack actual combat experience. Entering the top three is still possible, but wanting to take first place will be difficult."

  "Don't worry, Elder Taishang, I know what to do." Fang Li nodded his hands, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.
