Chapter 49: The World-Slaying Sword Manual, Dao Profound Gold Pill!

"Such formidable strength."

Qin Xueyi stood on the side, watching Li Xun in the midst of the battle, and was secretly amazed.

Back in the day,

Even when she was at the late stages of the Spirit Connection Realm, her strength didn't seem to be this strong.

If this state continued, Li Xun's future could at least lead him to become a revered saint. If combined with other opportunities, perhaps even ascending to an emperor wasn't impossible.

It seemed...

Their fate in this life might not be as distant as it was in the previous one.

"Thud!"

In the distance,

Various radiances shimmered. The formidable man summoned another weapon, only to have it immediately shattered into pieces by Li Xun's spear. It couldn't even withstand his power..

"Splurt!"

Li Xun's other hand formed into a sword-like gesture, slashing through the air as if he were wielding an unparalleled blade. The formidable man was instantly cleaved in two, and his pitch-black blood splattered across the void.

The other person reacted by letting out a roar, his long blade emitting countless rays of light. It was as if he were holding up a scorching sun, rapidly descending from the sky.

Countless rays of light cascaded down simultaneously, creating a grand and breathtaking scene. Thunderous rumbles echoed as golden light surged, resembling tens of thousands of dragons connecting heaven and earth, dancing madly.

Li Xun was at the center, trapped by the dragon-like forms. The long blade emitted a destructive radiance, attempting to crush Li Xun into pieces.

"Young Master Li, be careful!"

Even Qin Xueyi couldn't maintain her composure at this point. She was worried that Li Xun might get hurt.

However,

She had barely thrown out the spirit stones, and the formation had yet to be activated.

In the next moment,

"Boom!"

Between heaven and earth, boundless blood energy surged, coalescing into a column of light that shot into the sky, tearing apart the swirling winds and causing a vortex of spiritual energy to form before descending.

Li Xun's body was bathed in this spiritual energy, his aura rising steadily. With a light shout, he swung his long spear, smashing it downward.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound rang out.

The golden sun in the sky shattered rapidly. After breaking the sun, the momentum of the spear didn't stop. It slammed into the man's chest with a thunderous impact.

A nauseating bone-cracking sound followed. The man had no resistance left; his figure resembled a shooting star, tracing an arc in the void.

He crashed into the white palace.

Only after hitting a stone platform at the center of the palace did his momentum finally come to a halt.

Li Xun strode forward with his spear, entering the palace. He approached the man, confirming his death before retracting his spear. He then looked around.

Drawing closer,

He realized that the central stone platform in the palace was, more accurately, a stone basin. It was filled with a milky-white liquid emitting a refreshing fragrance.

"Could this be... Heavenly Heart Stone Milk?"

Li Xun's eyes lit up.

He had come across some records about Heavenly Heart Stone Milk. It was a rare heavenly material and earthly treasure, specifically tailored for body-refining cultivators.

A container as large as this one would be worth tens of thousands of top-grade spirit stones in the outside world.

After all,

The concept of top-grade spirit stones was far from ordinary.

"Exchanging this for low-grade spirit stones would be worth several billion."

Even in a powerful sect like the Xuanyang Sect, they wouldn't be willing to give away such a large vat of Heavenly Heart Stone Milk to their disciples.

"It just so happens that my Golden Body Technique has just reached a minor accomplishment. I was worried about not having a medicinal bath, and now this Heavenly Heart Stone Milk comes right to me." Li Xun nodded in satisfaction.

Just this vat of Heavenly Heart Stone Milk was already a worthwhile gain from this journey.

After inspecting the Heavenly Heart Stone Milk, Li Xun's peripheral vision caught sight of a stone statue not far away in the palace.

This statue had been standing in the palace for who knows how many years, its features already blurred. Even the two jade boxes in its hands were covered in dust.

Li Xun raised his palm, sending out a surge of true essence that swiftly drew both jade boxes toward him.

The moment he got hold of the jade boxes,

A familiar voice from the system resounded in his mind.

【Ding, congratulations, Host. You've found a violet-grade investable individual. By investing in one Dao Profound Gold Pill, you can obtain a middle-grade Heaven-tier World-Slaying Sword Manual.】

"It's here."

A smile appeared on Li Xun's lips.

After being busy for so long, wasn't he waiting for this moment?

Indeed.

Qin Xueyi didn't disappoint him. She had traveled all this way and directly provided a violet-grade investment opportunity, rewarding him with a middle-grade Heaven-tier sword manual.

Although he specialized in spears, the World-Slaying Sword Manual might not be useless in their hands. After all, there were plenty of practitioners who focused on sword techniques in the current cultivation world.

Someone who could invest in the World-Slaying Sword Manual must also be a violet-grade investor. Wasn't that quite generous?

With this item in hand, he could easily transcribe it a few times, invest in people whenever he had the chance, and eventually become wealthy, couldn't he?

After copying it dozens of times, he would surely obtain a spear technique.

Or...

The technique he desired.

"There are two jade boxes in total. One of them should be the Dao Profound Gold Pill. I wonder what the other one is..."

Li Xun took a deep breath.

He stretched out his hand and opened the first jade box. The moment he opened it, an extremely concentrated aura surged forth, sweeping through everything with a boom.

This aura was simply too concentrated.

In the instant it appeared, it was as if a tide of spiritual energy filled the entire palace. The aura within the palace was almost on the verge of liquefying.

"Is this the Dao Profound Gold Pill? If you told me it was a pill condensed from spiritual energy, I'd believe it."

Staring at the faint golden pill in the jade box, Li Xun was dumbfounded. Just by inhaling the medicinal fragrance, he felt like his cultivation was about to break through immediately.

One thing was certain—the main function of this pill was to increase one's cultivation.

Such pills were quite valuable, something ordinary people wouldn't be able to afford with spirit stones. However, for Li Xun, its value was relatively limited.

As long as his luck was good enough, and the system rewarded him with more cultivation, it would definitely be more reliable than this Dao Profound Gold Pill.

After all,

The Dao Profound Gold Pill was a type of pill, and pills of any sort tended to have some medicinal toxicity. Consuming too many pills would greatly hinder future development.

The system was different. It provided truly solid cultivation.

These two things were on completely different levels.

"Young Master Li, this Dao Profound Gold Pill, you..."

Qin Xueyi stood at the entrance of the palace, hesitating to speak.

At this moment,

She felt a little embarrassed. Although she had brought Li Xun here, during the battle just now, she had been mostly a spectator and hadn't been of much help.

Now, directly asking for the Dao Profound Gold Pill felt somewhat difficult.

However, if she didn't ask for it, she would return empty-handed from this trip. More importantly, she urgently needed this Dao Profound Gold Pill to advance her cultivation.

Only by advancing her cultivation could she embark on the next opportunity, and that next opportunity would be a crucial turning point that would change the trajectory of her life.
