Chapter 250 - Unique Refining
He had the impression that his grandson was a yes man who was overcautious and timid. However, he was wrong.
Prime Minister Tang couldn’t help laughing and felt happy, “Lei, you surprise me today. You don’t let me down!”
Tang Lei scratched his head sheepishly and said with a smile, “I’m just telling the truth.”
“It’s not too late for me to be awakened by you.”
Prime Minister Tang looked relieved, “Don’t worry about this matter. Keep in touch with the doctor and ask him to help you detoxify. Then live in the Ling Family and don’t come back! I’ll solve it!”
Hearing this, Tang Lei was in a hurry, “Grandpa, you can’t take risks...”
Prime Minister Tang shook his head and said with a smile, “If I want to save the Tang Family, I must do it. I also want to see my great-grandson, so I’ll be careful.”
Hearing this, Tang Lei felt at ease and shy, “I’m so fat that no girl likes me...”
“After being detoxified, lose your weight!”
“Yes, Grandpa!”
Tang Lei nodded hurriedly, but now his heart was warmer than ever.
In the night, Prime Minister Tang saw him going away. His eyes flashed with determination.
His muddle hurt the Tang Family. Without the visit of the Yinmo Cult tonight, he wouldn’t realize the truth until the news of Tang Lei’s death came.
“Ancestors, I would like to suffer the punishment in the hell after my death. Please bless Lei!”
...
In the morning, Fang Yuan opened the attic as usual, and was about to go in to clean it with a broom. But seeing the woman in red lying on the soft couch in the room, he was stiff at once.
“Why are you staying in my room in the morning instead of practicing?”
Su Li suddenly opened her eyes. Although Fang Yuan’s footsteps were light, she found him quickly.
Hearing it, he was a little embarrassed and explained in a low voice, “There are too many distractions, so I’m coming to clean the room.”
“Has it been always cleaned by you?”
Su Li was amazed. Fang Yuan’s heart beat faster and he didn’t know how to answer.
Could he say that he snatched it from his sister and had been laughed for several days?
“Well, you don’t have many opportunities to take action and do practice too much. It is helpful if you can relax yourself.”
Su Li turned around and didn’t want to be entangled with it.
Fang Yuan was a little disappointed, but soon he calmed down as usual, which wasn’t seen by Su Li. He took the broom and went down. Although his back was straight, it still looked a little lonely.
It was easy to know his thought, but...
Shaking her head slightly to get rid of distractions, Su Li took out the Full Moon and Heart Strings, which was completely melted by her in the glass bottle, with the skin removed. The color was no longer golden. Instead, it was the light blue as clear as the sky, like blood.
The best-known usage of the Full Moon and Heart Strings was to melt it in the full moon. But she knew a more effective and powerful way.
The ancient way of refining the heart!
The appearance of the Full Moon and Heart Strings was like a golden pill. When ordinary people obtained it, they would like to melt it immediately. But some people found that there was a golden skin, which would suppress the result of it, so it couldn’t produce a more powerful Immortals’ Place. In other words, the Full Moon and Heart Strings without the skin was the real valuable treasure.
Removing the golden skin, the liquid of the Full Moon and Heart Strings was creamy white. Su Li added ten drops of her essence and blood in it on the first day of the first lunar month at midnight. At that time, the power of the moon was the weakest. Then the creamy white liquid instantly became blue!
The so-called essence and blood were the basic concentrating energies of every warrior. It was extremely important. If a warrior lost a lot of essence and blood, their cultivation would descend and even their lives were in danger.
A warrior of the inborn realm just had more than one hundred of drops of essence and blood at most, but Su Li used one tenth at this time. It could be imagined how huge a cost she would pay.
Su Li stared at the thing in the bottle devotedly. In order to refine it, she descended her cultivation. She had dropped into the inborn seventh hurdle from the inborn eighth hurdle. Because she only had one chance, she must succeed.
She put the glass bottle in the sun, walked to the door and moved two large vases to block the door. The tactical matrix was accomplished. No one could open the Linli Building unless Wen Tingshan opened it forcibly.
Wen Tingshan wasn’t a foolish guy. What’s more, after the Auction Fair ended, he went to Qinghe Province to find Ning Qing because the Wanjian Sect didn’t take action. So, it was the best chance for Su Li to refine the Full Moon and Heart Strings.
As time passed by, Su Li became more serious. Droplets of sweat were welling up on her forehead. There were the Wanjian Sect, Dongfang Xiao and the Hierarchs of the Hehuan Sect and Lianshi Cult. Her enemies became more and more powerful, so she had no time to fail.
She waited quietly for half of five minutes. Suddenly, she saw a purplish breath spreading from air into the bottle.
Su Li was extremely excited.
It was the extreme power of Yang.
Crack!
Here came a heat wave, and the bottle was broken unsurprisingly. Then the Full Moon and Heart Strings tended to melt. The blue liquid in the bottle became golden just like flames. In a flash, it tended to become black.
Su Li shrank her pupils without a word and held the red gelatin in both hands.
Then she was shocked, looking at her right hand. The palm wrapped up by inborn genuine energy was burned black. She could smell the meat flavor.
Just for an instant, her hand was roasted!
Then, Su Li made a decision of swallowing the red thing.
It was just like swallowing the lava. For a moment, Su Li felt that her tube from the throat to the stomach was burned. And she experienced an unimaginable sharp pain.
Men couldn’t bear the power of sun, even a ray.
If she had no special method to deal with it, in less than two minutes, she would die due to the burning.
The more dangerous situation she faced, the calmer she became.
Before she used this method, she knew it must be dangerous. Now, everything was expected.
She tried her best to operate the secret method which had been practiced for thousands of times in her mind.
Although the injury was very frightening, it only damaged the respiratory tract and esophagus, and only twenty percent of the tendons were destroyed. It was not too difficult to operate the secret method.
Soon, the genuine energy turned into a kind of gentle power and slowly wrapped the golden source. The heat in the body faded, and the outstanding recovery ability of the Ghost Valley Meditation Direction played a role.
The chapped and bloody lips became wet again at a very fast speed. The hair that had dried like dead grass also became smooth. Although the burned holes in the body recovered slowly, it continued to do so.
“It’s finally over.”
Although Su Li saw several black caves in her body recovering slowly, she was very cautious,
Although she just felt that she was about to be roasted, there were still many dangers in the ancient way of refining the heart.
In the pubic region, the gentle power was constantly consuming the power of Yang, and it was broken down into countless parts, which were transported to every part of Su Li’s tendons and vessels, making Su Li feel warm as if she took a bath in the hot spring.
This feeling lasted for a long time, and the golden color around the Full Moon and Heart Strings faded and became blue again.
It was not azure but deep blue!
Without any sign, an extremely horrible cold draught suddenly broke out. It easily broke away from the gentle mysterious energy, and instantly surrounded Su Li’s whole body.
“Click, click...”
If someone came into the room right now, he would see that Su Li had a layer of ice all over her body, and that the ice was still thickening rapidly. Even Su Li’s face could not be seen clearly immediately.
At this moment, the rising sun irradiated Su Li through window, who was sitting on the floor.
The power of the sun broke out and immediately suppressed the power of Yin. The ice soon melted, and Su Li became normal again, but her expression was still stiff and unchanged like that of a person frozen to death.
As time went by, Fang Yuan and others came to knock the door, but there was no response. They were uneasy and wanted to break the door forcibly, but found that the wooden door was as heavy as a boulder and could not be opened. Finally, they could only wait outside the door and worried ceaselessly.
Although Su Li said it was just a deal, it was still vivid in their mind. They had known each other for a long time, and they knew that Su Li was firm in speech but soft in heart.
The situation in the room at the moment was shocking.
The sun had not irradiated Su Li for a long time, but there was a halo around her, which was the ray of the sun.
Time passed by slowly. When the last ray of the sun in the west faded, Su Li, like an ice sculpture, suddenly opened her eyes, and then she could no longer maintain the posture of sitting, lying on the ground and gasping for breath.
She stared at the dry white water mark on the ground, with her eyes full of fear.
She underestimated the power of extreme Yin in the Full Moon and Heart Strings. This time, without the help of the sun, she would have been frozen to death as soon as the cold draught broke out.
Nevertheless, she would not recall the process of refining the Full Moon and Heart Strings.
Struggling in the ice and fire, she had to keep awake to refine the Full Moon and Heart Strings. It wasn’t less difficult than the situation that a weak near-drowning child in a lake came ashore alone.
It was a nightmare.
Fortunately, the suffering had passed, and then she could enjoy the harvest.
After a while, Su Li recovered a lot. She sat again and saw the pubic region where the liquid genuine energy was rippling like the lake. The mass and quantity of that increase were more than three times.
She turned the genuine energy slightly and was amazed.
Inborn ninth hurdle!!
After refining the Full Moon and Heart Strings for just one day, she should skip the inborn eighth hurdle to the ninth cultivation. And some herbs were still in her body. So, she could get to the top in one month at most easily. The next realm was what the martial arts circle and the secular world admired,
longevity realm!!
Su Li looked satisfied. Taking this risk didn’t let her down.
One should have used the nimbus of Real Spiritual Circle and the embryo of Immortals’ Place to stabilize the root.
But now she had refined the Full Moon and Heart Strings in the ancient method, so she didn’t need that.
By the psychic awareness, Su Li could “see” an unstable light over her pubic region. That’s the root of Immortals’ Place. The force of the Full Moon and Heart Strings was all over her body.
During this time... Su Li waved her right hand dropping a piece of moonlight.
Power of moonlight!
Ancients didn’t cheat me!
Su Li was fairly delighted because she aimed to master the ability to absorb the power of moonlight. The endless moonlight power was everywhere. When the moon was full, it could produce a horrible moonlight tide.
She could absorb the power of moonlight and the nimbus of the universe, so in the future she could get to the longevity realm easily.
“It’s said that there were different shapes of Immortals’ Place in the body of every warrior. I wonder what mine would be.”
Su Li mumbled to herself. If the Full Moon and Heart Strings was refined at the full moon night, Immortals’ Place would be the shape of the moon. Even though the ball shape defended well, it’s not the perfect state.
The Immortals’ Place returned to the chaos after the refining in the ancient method. The state of the Immortals’ Place was unpredictable. Nobody could tell the state of Su Li’s Immortals’ Place.
“Su Li, can you hear me?”
“Su Li, are you OK?”
A crowd of people including Yin Xuetong heard Su Li’s mumbling. They stood up suddenly and shouted, “The door is closed. Don’t be afraid of being heard.”
After the sound, the door was open with a “creak”.
Seeing her messy hair and bloodstained wrinkly clothes, people were shocked.
“Are you attacked?”
Fang Yuan frowned and asked. He scanned the room quickly and looked at a melted glass bottle.
At this moment, a hint of horrible nimbus split from her body. Fang Yuan became stiff suddenly as if he was suffering extreme cold.
Soon the horrible feeling disappeared, but deeply pressed into his mind. He turned around slowly and had eye contact with Su Li.
“I broke through a lot, so I couldn’t reply to you. Sorry to make you worried.”
Qu Qingning laughed, “I see. That’s nice. Su Li, you broke through the inborn fifth hurdle early. Now you break the bottleneck and come to the later inborn hurdle. Our Linli Building is improved greatly!”
Su Li smiled and said nothing.
Fang Yuan was in a complex mood. Just now, he was the closest to Su Li, so only he knew that her cultivation reached more than the inborn sixth hurdle. After hard practice, he had reached the inborn fifth hurdle. If Su Li had just reached the inborn sixth hurdle, he couldn’t have been so frightened.
“Inborn eighth hurdle, or...”
Fang Yuan thought that he should protect Su Li, but her cultivation had always been better than his, which made him feel embarrassed.
“Sister Li, you’re so cool!”
Fang Ling held the arm of Su Li and left, “Let’s go to the bathhouse. I have prepared the same clothes for you. When the servant of Lord Rui’s Mansion comes, they won’t notice the difference.”
Thinking of Lord Rui’s Mansion, Su Li was distressed about how to explain her disappearance for one day and a half.
After bathing, Fang Ling combed Su Li’s hair and said with envy,
“Your hair is so beautiful and soft, and it seems to get longer...”
Fang Ling murmured. Su Li looked at the girl from the bronze mirror, and couldn’t help laughing, “If you want it, why don’t you try to practice in the mental method that I taught you?”
Hearing it, Fang Ling sighed, “Sister, I also want to break through the inborn hurdle, but my talent is not as good as my brother. I don’t understand that Ao Sword Skills, and now I’m still practicing the ninth hurdle. I think it will take me a long time to break through the inborn hurdle.”
“Ao Sword Skills is just one of the ways to break through the inborn hurdle. If you don’t have the talent, it may be too difficult for you. The inborn hurdle is the first step to cultivate the power of the universe. In this case, you can feel the power of the universe and nature.”
Su Li had experienced much because she broke through the inborn hurdle twice in the previous life and this life, so what she said enlightened Fang Ling.
“Sister Li, I will not be limited to Ao Sword Skills. Maybe I can break through the inborn hurdle by myself.”
Su Li nodded, with a gentle smile. Fang Ling was the most innocent in Linli Building, so she liked to stay with Fang Ling.
After dinner, Su Li was about to leave at night, but Xuan Jingzhou suddenly rushed in. Fortunately, everyone was not on the first floor, so she didn’t expose her real identity.
“Mr. Li, are you there?”
Xuan Jingzhou was shouting at the top floor. Su Li wearing indigo clothes opened the door and said calmly, “What makes Boss Xuan so hurried?”
Mr. Li’s whereabouts changed all the time. Xuan Jingzhou just came to have a try. Seeing him, Xuan Jingzhou was happy and said, “My wife is ill. Please save her!”
Su Li was about to tease him. When she heard that Su Yue was ill, she immediately said, “Let’s go!”
...
In the back room of Zhouyue Winery, Su Li sat beside the bed and quietly diagnosed Su Yue.
It was a taboo to diagnose relatives, but Xuan Jingzhou didn’t know the real identity of Mr. Li, and Su Li didn’t want to delay, so she accepted it directly.
Behind Su Li, Xuan Jingzhou was concerned. Beside him, Fang Yuan, Yin Xuetong, Qu Qingning and Fang Mu all came.
“Jingzhou...”
Lying in front of so many people for the first time, Su Yue felt a little shy, “There’s no need to invite Mr. Li for me. I just feel nauseated.”
“No! You are the senior of the inborn realm. The disease does not invade your body. If you feel sick suddenly, there must be something wrong.”
Xuan Jingzhou said feelingly while Fang Yuan and others immediately stood away. Su Yue was shyer like a little girl.
She married the right one.
After a long time, Su Li loosened her hand curiously, then put her wrist into the quilt and turned around. It seemed that she would like to say something. Fang Yuan had been always paying attention to Su Li, so he found that her eyes flashed with a little irrepressible joy.
Maybe...
“Mr. Li, how is my wife? Is it serious?” Xuan Jingzhou asked anxiously. “Let’s talk outside.”
Fang Yuan smiled, which made Qu Qingning puzzled. He wondered why Fang Yuan still smiled when Su Li’s aunt was sick.
“No, it’s not serious.”
Su Li comforted Xuan Jingzhou, which made Xuan Jingzhou calm down finally, “I will give you a prescription. Proprietress, have enough rest and don’t harm the fetus.”
Xuan Jingzhou hadn’t realized it and nodded hurriedly, “Thank you, Mr. Li. I will go right now!”
Su Yue lying on the bed was surprised and asked, “Mr. Li, you mean that I...”
Su Li smiled brightly and nodded, “Congratulations! It has been two months.”
“My wife... is pregnant?”
Xuan Jingzhou was amazed. So were Qu Qingning and others. They all congratulated them.
“Congratulations, Boss Xuan!”
“It is difficult for a senior of the inborn realm to be pregnant, congratulations!”
“It’s time to name the baby...”
People chattered with each other. Yin Xuetong was full of envy and she secretly pinched Qu Qingning so that he shivered secretly. He had tried his best, but the senior of the inborn realm couldn’t have offspring easily. Xuan Jingzhou and Su Yue had their first child at this age.
But Qu Qingning didn’t dare to say this to Yin Xuetong.
Immersed in excitement, Xuan Jingzhou still stood stupidly. Until Su Yue called him shyly, he quickly knelt down beside the bed, holding her hand, and said excitedly,
“Dear, you do a good job! No, it’s me, ha-ha...”
Xuan Jingzhou was so excited like a child and lost the usual calm completely. Su Yue also felt very happy and showed the whites of her eyes, “Look at you!”
“Giggle...”
It seemed that Xuan Jingzhou could only simper. The news came so suddenly that he was not ready to become a father.
Seeing this scene, Su Li picked up the writing brush to give the prescription, with a faint smile. There were only Su Yue and her in the Su Family, so it was fortunate for them to have the next generation.
Su Li and others left after she gave the prescription. They had no reason to stay here, because Zhouyue Winery was next to Linli Building. If there was a danger, they could come quickly.
Xuan Jingzhou kept this prescription carefully. Su Yue’s eyes flashed with warmth, but she couldn’t help sighing, “It will be great if Su Li knows.”
