Chapter 78: Counting the Harvest, Python Blood Elixir, and the Mastery of Seven Emotions
Chapter 78: Counting the Harvest, Python Blood Elixir, and the Mastery of Seven Emotions
The rain pattered down, gradually easing.
The dark clouds seemed to be dissipating.
Li Che, holding an oiled paper umbrella and dressed in black, exuded vitality as he came to pick up his daughter.
He was well aware of what had transpired at the Divine Academy.
Although he now had the confidence of his "Ox Demon" identity being exposed, he still preferred to keep it hidden if possible.
Upon seeing Aunt Mu's pale face and the chaotic state of the academy, Li Che instinctively displayed his acting skills.
"Aunt Mu, what happened here?"
Aunt Mu, seeing Li Che strolling gracefully through the rain, heaved a sigh of relief.
As if finally finding someone to confide in, she hurriedly recounted the Yang Family's attack on the Divine Academy and how the Ox Demon had ruthlessly slain them all.
"It's terrifying, truly terrifying..."
Li Che's face was filled with horror, and he shook his head repeatedly.
With the enhancement of his physical body, his control over subtle facial expressions had become more adept, and his acting skills had improved accordingly.
Lu Chi, the big-headed boy, tilted his head, speechless.
He quietly watched Li Che's performance.
After listening to Aunt Mu's account, Li Che, still feeling the lingering fear, picked up Xi Xi and asked Aunt Mu for leave.
"Aunt Mu, from now on, Xi Xi won't be coming to the Divine Academy. I'm concerned about her safety."
Li Che's face was filled with worry.
Aunt Mu naturally agreed. The Xu Family's Divine Academy was no longer safe. Today, not a single Xu Family expert had shown up, clearly indicating that the Xu Family had chosen to engage in underhanded dealings.
Such an incident would likely reoccur, and trust had been lost.
Therefore, it was too dangerous for Xi Xi to stay, and Aunt Mu understood Li Che's concerns.
Even she didn't want Xi Xi to remain there.
In the drizzling rain, Aunt Mu watched as Li Che carried Xi Xi away, her face showing a fleeting look of loss.
The loss soon dissipated, replaced by a hint of relief.
Li Nuanxi had such a gentle, amiable, and honest father. Although she had taken the Ox Demon, a vicious and evil demon, as her master, under her father's influence, her future path... should not go astray.
She should grow up well...
Becoming an excellent and cheerful female cultivator.
...
...
Li Che brought Xi Xi back to their home in the inner city.
He folded the umbrella and shook off the rainwater.
Holding Xi Xi in his arms, he headed towards the warm house with a burning stove.
He casually infused her with inner qi, drying the moisture from her body.
"Father, I don't have to worry about you getting beaten to death anymore. Master Niu Niu will make me very, very powerful, and Xi Xi can protect you!"
Xi Xi, in Li Che's embrace and bathed in inner qi, felt so comfortable that she snuggled against him, her hand naturally wrapping around his neck as she spoke happily.
This little girl's craziness hadn't subsided yet.
Upon returning home, Xi Xi immediately changed her expression as soon as she got down from Li Che's arms.
"Mother, waaah... Xi Xi was so scared, there were so many bad people, so many..."
Xi Xi threw herself into Zhang Ya's embrace, sobbing and squeezing out a few tears. Zhang Ya, not understanding the reason for Xi Xi's tears, frantically held and comforted her, thinking that Xi Xi had been bullied by the An Family children at the Divine Academy.
"Mother, Xi Xi is so scared, I want to eat meat, braised meat..."
Finally, Xi Xi poked her head out of Zhang Ya's embrace, her face still wet with tears, and said with a hint of desperation.
Zhang Ya felt heartbroken and naturally agreed.
"Mother, Xi Xi loves you..." Xi Xi happily hugged Zhang Ya.
Then, Xi Xi pulled Zhang Ya and began boasting about her Master Niu Niu.
Zhang Ya patiently listened, her face turning red as she glanced at her husband, suppressing a smile.
Being both a father and a master...
This old father was indeed not having an easy time.
...
...
As night deepened, the heavy rain gradually subsided, and a cold winter breeze blew through the air.
In the study, an oil lamp was lit.
After his wife and daughter had fallen asleep, Li Che finally entered the study to tally his gains from the day's slaughter.
Of course, what Li Che anticipated the most was the Divine Nature Law.
The Yang Family's Heart Stunning Iron Fist...
In the cultivation world, Zhou Ruoguan's Chaos Bliss Confusion Divine Nature Technique...
Unfortunately, there were only two of them.
The Divine Catcher Zhang Xiangyang's Terror Trace Light was not yet in his possession.
Li Che raised his hand, and his fingertips lightly slid through the air, instantly tearing open a space, revealing the Heavens and Earth Jade within.
He spat out two pieces of Heavens and Earth Jade, and with his Thousand Analysis Hand, he broke the divine seal on them, exposing the stored items to Li Che's perception.
The Yang Family had the most significant harvest. After Li Che annihilated the Yang Family, he not only collected the treasures from each of their experts but also specifically visited the Yang Family's treasury.
The harvest was plentiful.
Aside from the silver notes, gold bars, and silver ingots, which were too numerous to count, Li Che stopped counting after a quick glance.
These aristocratic families were never short on wealth.
Aside from the money, what delighted Li Che the most was the highly valued pill bottles stored in the Yang Family's treasury.
"Elixirs!"
Li Che's eyes gleamed.
He took out a porcelain bottle, poured out a blood-red pill, and the potent fragrance instantly filled the entire courtyard.
Even the Meridian Vital Energy within his body seemed to boil slightly, stimulated by the medicinal properties.
"Python Blood Combat Pill?"
Li Che didn't recognize this pill, but the Yang Family's treasury provided an explanation, so he understood.
The Python Blood Combat Pill contained immense medicinal properties, and only Meridian Warriors could consume and refine it. A single pill was worth three thousand Gold Leaves, an extremely high price!
The Yang Family's treasury had a total of eleven combat pills, obviously a testament to the family's heritage.
Li Che happily collected all these pills.
Aside from these external items, there were also martial arts techniques, skills, and more.
But what Li Che truly valued were the divine martial arts and secret techniques.
"Python Dragon Cannon, Cloud Hawk Cloud Soar..."
"Nine Stars level divine martial art, and..."
"Nine Stars level divine secret technique... Blissful Head Smash!"
He kept the only two precious volumes of divine martial arts and the divine secret technique he obtained from Zhou Ruoguan.
Neither the Yang Family's treasury nor Yang Kahe's Heavens and Earth Jade contained any divine secret techniques, which Li Che found quite regrettable.
Aside from these three, he put away the rest of the books, including some intermediate and low-grade Vital Energy martial arts, which he planned to sell in the black market for money later.
The money he earned from selling them could be used to purchase elixir resources, as raising a child in the future would also require funds.
As Li Che finished his inventory, he was left with two yellow-bound books.
"Nine Stars Heart Stun Firmness Cultivation Nature Sutra" and "Dajing Temple Eight Extremes Chaos Bliss Confusion Spirit Cultivation Nature Law"!
Two Cultivation Nature Techniques!
Li Che's gaze fell upon the book he obtained from the Divine Catcher Zhou Ruoguan. Previously, he had acquired the Wrathful Maitreya Cultivation Nature Technique from Zhao Xuanhai, which was also of the Eight Extremes level.
"The Dajing Temple's official transmission... a complete set of the Seven Emotions Cultivation Nature Techniques?"
Li Che's eyebrows rose, and he couldn't help but think that the Dajing Temple officials were quite generous.
Civil servants were indeed a lucrative profession.
"But... now they all belong to me."
Li Che's eyes shone as he opened the book.
Within the Chess Sage Fruit, the Divine Essence Chess Piece extracted from Zhou Ruoguan's corpse, the Chaos Bliss Confusion, trembled slightly, and a piece emerged, falling into his palm, assisting Li Che in quickly comprehending this Cultivation Nature Technique.
As the day grew brighter and the candlelight burned out, Li Che opened his eyes in the pitch-black study, his eyes sparkling, and his divine nature swayed as if filled with countless laughter, sometimes distant, sometimes near.
He exhaled a breath of turbid air.
"Chaos Bliss Confusion is also cultivated, and within the Pineal Interior, a third divine nature is condensed, and the Cultivation Nature is like a lamp!"
In just one night, Li Che not only cultivated Chaos Bliss Confusion but also, through refining the chess piece, stepped into the realm of Cultivating Nature Like Lamp.
"Crying Wrath," "Wrathful Maitreya," "Chaos Bliss Confusion"...
Li Che now possessed three Cultivation Nature Techniques.
Seven Emotions Divine Nature...
He now held three of them!
Li Che's eyes shone brightly, his heart stirred.
Could he master all seven emotions of the divine nature?
If he mastered all seven emotions...
And cultivated them all to a high level...
What would he become?
Would he... become a god?
