From Family Fisherman to Water Virtue True Immortal-Chapter 235 - 230: Li Kunlun Departs
Chapter 235: Chapter 230: Li Kunlun Departs
"Come eat!"
Li Quanqing held the Spirit Fish in one hand and took out the Bone Powder Bait with the other.
No urging was needed as Ao Gou eagerly opened his mouth wide to devour it.
This bait was developed by Li Quanqing based on years of experience and thoughtful consideration.
It includes Flood Dragon Bone Powder and Heavenly One Spirit Liquid, both highly alluring for the Green Jade Carp, and possibly could enhance the evolutionary potential of the Golden Pattern Variant’s bloodline.
[Harvested a Qi Refining Late Stage Golden Pattern Green Jade Carp, rewarded with a Spiritual Energy Group!]
Crouching on the embankment, Li Quanqing casually scooped again, and the water condensed into a silk line hook. Unexpectedly, he hit the jackpot and received a Light Group reward.
Crushing it, a mass of Pure Spirit Qi appeared in his meridians and was refined by his cultivation technique within moments, slightly increasing his cultivation.
The effect was roughly equivalent to consuming half an elixir.
Li Quanqing shook his head slightly; for his current level of cultivation, even the Qi Refining Late Stage Golden Pattern Green Jade Carp seemed gradually unable to keep up with his progress. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
How to stably cultivate a Green Horned Fish Dragon from the carp in these ponds would become his key research project after forming his Golden Core.
"Bone Powder Bait: Take three mone of Flood Dragon Bone Powder, evenly divide the Heavenly One Spirit Liquid into a hundred parts, mix in Snake Grass..."
"This bait, rich with the essence of a Flood Dragon, may trigger the bloodline of the Green Jade Carp to revert to its ancestors, easing the bottleneck difficulties of breaking through to the Second Rank Foundation Establishment..."
"Due to its extremely rich Essence Qi, it should only be fed individually to Spirit Fish at the Qi Refining Late Stage, remember, remember..."
While feeding the bait pellets, Li Quanqing took out a Jade Scroll and, using his Divine Sense as a pen, slowly began to inscribe it.
This was the fishing and farming inheritance he prepared to leave for his family, containing all his experiences in raising Green Jade Carp, Golden Pattern Variants, and even two Green Horned Fish Dragons.
The origin of this Jade Scroll, was still the fish-raising experience passed down from Mr. Kun Shui Li, given to him years ago.
Now in his hands, it has clearly developed and grown much larger, already progressing towards the rank of a Second Rank Cultivation Hundred Arts.
This was the first Cultivation Hundred Art that Li Quanqing mastered profoundly without relying on the Golden Finger.
Even relying on his abundant fish-farming career, continually expanding various tricks in raising Green Jade Carp, can be considered a sort of summary and induction.
Just as Li Quanqing finished recording, the Fish Mirror in his Storage Bag gently vibrated, revealing a message on its surface.
It was actually from Li Kunlun, who had ended his seclusion, summoning them to discuss matters in the Secret Realm, not wanting to make a big fuss.
Li Quanqing patted his hands, brushing off the specks, then soared into the air with his mana, plunging into the hidden Cave Heaven Secret Realm in the Heavenly Vault .
"Roar!!"
"Hiss~"
Upon stepping into this Secret Realm, he immediately saw numerous groups of beasts galloping; many were adult Demon Beasts, raised within various Arrays to guard them.
This place is precisely the Spiritual Beast Garden that the Li Family is planning to develop, also possibly referred to as the Hundred Beasts Secret Realm. After previously sweeping the sea of Sea Demons, it had now begun to take shape.
At least, Li Quanqing spotted several Wind and Thunder Horned Pythons, coiled within a nest, surrounded by lush vegetation and a waterfall booming loudly, the scene teeming with vitality.
"You’ve arrived as usual, always the quickest."
At the deepest part of the Secret Realm, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was abundant and staggering, the mist churned, nearly turning into a liquid state, filling up a large pool.
Li Kunlun was sitting cross-legged here, his body without flashes of thunder, nor sharp Sword Qi flying about, his entire demeanor very calm.
It could be said that he has returned to simplicity, like a jade that has been weathered, no longer sharp-edged, instead resembling an ordinary person.
But in this state, he was undoubtedly more formidable, having reached the limits of the Foundation Establishment Realm, perfectly polished, and only half a step away from achieving his Core Formation.
"The Clan Leader has also arrived."
Li Kunlun lifted his head and smiled faintly, his whole person exuding a special aura, ethereal and nearly celestial.
Indeed, Li Zongyao was the second to arrive, followed by Li Kunli, who looked towards his own elder brother, his eyes already seeming to sense something.
Li Quanmo and Li Quanyi were the last to arrive, they remained silent, simply sitting cross-legged amidst the void around them.
Six Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators gathered together, everyone’s eyes were focused on the original Supreme Elder of the Li Family, unsure of why he had summoned them.
Li Kunlun swept his gaze over everyone, his smile was very serene, but the words he spoke were like a thunderclap exploding in their midst.
"I am prepared to leave the family and wander in the Cultivation World."
The Old Clan Chief’s eyebrows twitched, nearly losing control of the mana fluctuations in his body, with a sea-like halo shimmering around his body showing his emotionally stirred state.
Li Kunli was the calmest in response; he understood his elder brother too well and had already guessed this might happen when he first received the message.
"The family is too secure; my Tao is not here. I plan to go to the outer sea to hunt members of the Sea Demon Clan and contend with numerous strong cultivators from the Human Clan in order to break through that sky-high bottleneck."
Li Kunlun spoke slowly, his words plain yet carrying an undeniable resolve.
For someone like him, on the cusp of the limit of Foundation Establishment and without any Jiedan Spiritual Items to aid, tempering himself through life and death was the best method.
Only by exhausting every drop of potential from his body could he glimpse a corner of the Tao, condense a Golden Core, enjoy a lifespan of five hundred years, and watch the world change with a smile.
"Isn’t the outer sea too dangerous..."
Although Li Quanqing agreed with him traveling the Cultivation World, the Sea Demon Clan of the outer sea were not to be trifled with.
Throughout his cultivation, he was always assisted by a Golden Finger, inclined towards stability and conservatism.
Especially after Foundation Establishment, embodying the supreme goodness of water, he seldom competed with other cultivators for anything, mostly staying home and raising Spirit Fish and Spiritual Beasts quietly.
"The more dangerous it is, the more opportunities there are. I shall use the three-foot green blade in my hand to cut down all, carving out a clear universe."
Li Kunlun said so, his Lifebound Flying Sword clanging loudly, emitting a dragon-roar like tearing sound.
The sword’s cry was clear and resonant, yet it evoked images of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
Li Kunlun was known for his Gui Water Divine Thunder, but few remembered that he was a Sword Cultivator.
Possessing that most pure and rigid backbone of a Sword Cultivator, preferring to break rather than bend.
In the end, Li Kunlun still chose to leave, and no one raised objections.
The Tao is lofty; one must forge their own path through the mire, alone and solitary.
Before leaving, he left a Life Soul Lamp in the family. If he were to unfortunately fall outside, the lamp would extinguish on its own.
Li Quanqing gave him the Wind Thunder Wings and even passed on the Thunder Escape Technique as a last resort for protection.
Sword Cultivators are not fools; facing a certain-death situation, they would definitely choose to flee rather than foolishly charge forward and cut off all escapes.
A supreme Magic Artifact combined with the Thunder Escape Technique, with Li Kunlun’s Ground Grade Thunder Spirit Root, he could certainly protect himself even in front of a Golden Core True Master.
Li Quanqing, who stayed in the family all day, didn’t really need the Wind Thunder Wings.
"Thank you..."
Li Kunlun fondled the delicate Purple-blue Feathered Wings with Wind Thunder swirling around, whistling by his ear.
"Take care, protect your life well. Even if you don’t find the great Tao, remember to come back; the family still has me."
Li Quanqing also spoke with a smile, providing him encouragement.
Hearing this, Li Kunlun couldn’t help but smile as well, knowing that with the rate of his cultivation, perhaps staying in his own fish pond would allow him to break through to Golden Core first.
"I’m leaving..."
"Goodbye."
Li Kunlun glanced back at the entirety of the Qingyu Cave Heaven, those lively members of the Li Family, seemingly having a thousand words to say, but ultimately turned into just these two words, dispersing with the wind.
Li Quanqing watched him leave, watched this revered family elder disappear into the horizon of the sea and sky, never to be seen again.
Perhaps, by the time Li Kunlun returns, the entire Green Jade Li Family will undergo earth-shattering changes due to him.
