The Flower of Supreme Yang, I'll Pick It for You

Coffin Master said, "Don't do anything rash! The Tenth Spring Divine Que has always been just a legend; we're not even sure if it really exists."

"That's right, we're not even sure if the Tenth Spring is Shenque," Master Urn said.

The Spirit Tablet Master said, "Weiyi, you are already very strong! After opening the Ninth Spring, the number of Trace Meridians reached 108, which is unparalleled in history. It is said that even the Zen Sea Observing Mist only had 107."

Coffin Master said, "Refine all your Trace Meridians to gold, then break through to the Five Seas realm. I guarantee that, throughout the world, no one of your kind will be a match for you in a single move. There's no need to fight to the death at the Tenth Spring."

Li Weiyi seemed to have taken his words to heart. Instead of continuing to study the Shenque acupoint, he peeled away the blood mist to reveal the brilliant sea area where Tanggu Sea was located, absorbing the light of the Fusang Divine Tree and continuing to refine the Golden Meridian Lines.

Thinking to himself, "The more Golden Meridian Lines I cultivate, the more times I can Spring Breaking Needle. I must go all out to break through this tenth spring."

It was the fourth day since the Medicine Flag ship departed from Jiu Li City.

Because they were going downstream, with their sails fully unfurled, they were moving as fast as galloping horses.

The wind whistled in my ears.

Li Weiyi stood proudly in the corridor outside the cabin, holding a gilded Horse-Slaying Saber about one and a half meters long, which he activated with his ancestral energy. The sword's golden light surged, shining as brightly as the divine sun.

"Whoosh!"

With a single swing, the golden blade flew away and landed on the water's surface seven or eight zhang away.

The river surface exploded with a deafening roar.

Hidden Twenty-Five, leaning against the pillar of the cabin door next to him, twitched at the corner of his mouth. This strength was too abnormal. He felt that he would be cleaved in two by Li Weiyi's sword at the same Nine Springs Ancestral Field realm as Li Weiyi!

Yang Shen Realm of the Nine Springs and Zuoqiu Ling the Nine Springs, how many blows could they withstand?

On the ship, the servants, guards, and maids of the Yao Li Tribe all turned their heads and mistook Li Weiyi for a cultivator at the Five Seas Realm.

Li Weiyi stroked the blade and exclaimed, "What a fine blade! If only I could cultivate a sword technique at the Heavenly Dao Mana Fusion level!"

This low-level magic weapon-grade Horse-Slaying Saber was obtained from the Coffin Sea Pavilion's treasury and was used as a cover.

"Congratulations, Brother Sima, on breaking through to the Five Seas realm!"

Zhao Zhizhuo wore a bamboo hat and a black veil to cover his face, thus concealing his true appearance.

"Who says you have to be at the Five Seas Realm to unleash this strike?" Li Weiyi was in high spirits. In the past few days, he had honed three more Golden Meridian Lines, bringing his total to fifty-eight, and his combat power seemed to have increased slightly.

Zhao Zhizhuo was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help but think of the rumors circulating outside that Li Weiyi, with his mortal body, possessed combat power comparable to Hundred Meridian Lines All Silver Pure Immortal Body.

Could the rumors actually be true?

It should be noted that because of this rumor, many forces are looking for him, wanting to invite him to collect herbs in some special areas within Immortal Burial Town.

"How's your recovery going?" Li Weiyi asked.

Zhao Zhizhuo said, "Just right."

Li Weiyi led Zhao Zhizhuo into the cabin, closed the doors and windows tightly, and handed him a black cloth bag. "Now that the first lung lobe has been healed, let's try to see if we can restore the first Qi Sea first."

"It's starting now, where is that senior?"

Suppressing his excitement, Zhao Zhizhuo asked this question.

Li Weiyi said, "That senior is traveling with us! With his cultivation and methods, even if he stood right in front of you, you wouldn't be able to see him. But there are some secrets you can't know right now; you need to wear this black cloth bag to seal your senses."

Zhao Zhizhuo naturally trusted Li Weiyi, and after sitting down, he put the black cloth bag directly on his head.

The five realms of martial arts cultivation in the Five Seas Realm are the cultivation of five Qi Sea.

The five Qi Sea are located in the five lobes of the lungs in the human body.

The reason why it is so difficult to break through the Five Seas Realm, and why many martial artists need to rely on the Five Seas Pill, is primarily because it is difficult to develop one's inner world.

The "Ancestral Field" is also an internal world. The reason why Li Weiyi was able to open it up so easily is because he possessed the spatial treasure, the Buddha's Sarira.

Similarly, to help Zhao Zhizhuo reopen his withered first Qi Sea, we must rely on external Spatial Power.

Li Weiyi pressed his finger on the location of Zhao Zhizhuo's first Qi Sea in his chest, in the lung lobe, and his brow gradually lit up, using spiritual light to activate the Dao Ancestor Taiji Fish.

A gentle Spatial Power emanated from the Buddha's Sarira, transforming into Spatial Ripples traveled along his fingers and entered Zhao Zhizhuo's lungs.

"Whoosh!"

The Qi Sea, which had been withered for over a decade, slowly expanded.

Zhao Zhizhuo seemed to be in great pain, his body trembling violently, but he tried his best to control himself and not move or sway.

The expansion process lasted a full quarter of an hour.

The Qi Sea in the lung lobe stabilized, neither expanding nor shrinking back; the process was much smoother than Li Weiyi had imagined.

After hiding the Dao Ancestor Taiji Fish, he patted Zhao Zhizhuo on the head and opened the black cloth bag.

As he removed the cloth bag, blood was flowing from Zhao Zhizhuo's mouth and nose, but he was extremely agitated. He searched everywhere for traces of that senior, and finally knelt down on one knee before Li Weiyi, weeping bitterly, unable to utter a single word.

Only when he truly regained his lost state of mind did he finally believe that everything was real, and not just another midnight dream.

Li Weiyi helped him up. "You've only recovered your first Qi Sea, and you've lived for almost sixty years. How can your state of mind be so bad?"

"I thought... I simply didn't believe that someone could return to the Five Seas Realm... Please excuse my ignorance!" Zhao Zhizhuo said.

Li Weiyi said, "Don't worry, that senior is traveling with us, and all five Qi Sea will be fully restored."

Zhao Zhizhuo nodded repeatedly. "No wonder you dared to travel with Yao Yin. With that senior by your side, what do you have to fear? Even if she's a jackal or a tiger, what can she do to you?"

Li Weiyi said, "That senior said your first Qi Sea is two square meters in size, not bad!"

Zhao Zhizhuo wiped away his tears and smiled, "Generally speaking, martial artists who break through the Seven Springs and Five Seas usually have a first Qi Sea that is about one square meter in size. Those who break through the Eight Springs and Five Seas have two square meters. There's nothing to be proud of."

Li Weiyi asked, "How large is the first Qi Sea of the Nine Springs Perfected Person?"

"The minimum is at least three-dimensional! As for those Pure Immortal Body with Hundred Meridian Lines All Silver, it is said that they can reach four or five-dimensional. Although they are both at the First Realm of the Five Seas, their combat power is worlds apart," Zhao Zhizhuo said.

Li Weiyi had a general idea of what was going on and asked, "Will it cost even more blood crystals to treat the second lung lobe?"

Zhao Zhizhuo nodded. "My second Qi Sea will be about four square meters. I estimate it will require three or four blood crystals."

Li Weiyi had amassed a fortune from the Changlin Gang, but he still had many other expenses. Just raising Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors was a huge headache for him, so he dared not spend lavishly.

Sensing Yao Yin, they came to the door.

Li Weiyi pushed open the door, stopped her, and asked directly, "Do you have any money?"

Yao Yin was startled by him and instinctively nodded. "How much do you want?"

"How many do you have?" Li Weiyi asked.

Yao Yin said, "My mother left me quite a bit of property, some of which can be mortgaged."

"Where's the Blood Crystal?" Li Weiyi asked.

"Wait for me a moment."

Yao Yin hurried away.

When she returned, she held a small wooden box, about the size of her palm, and handed it to Li Weiyi.

Upon opening it, they found a blood crystal the size of a fist, entirely crimson, with liquid blood flowing inside. Its quality was far superior to the one Li Weiyi had bought before.

Blood crystal is one of the most important minerals in the world. It is said to be formed from the sediment of blood underground. It is an indispensable material for martial artists to temper their bodies, for pharmacists to refine pills, for setting up formations, for drawing runes, and so on.

At some of the highest levels of trading, blood crystals are even used as currency.

The blood crystal in the wooden box was absolutely priceless, and Li Weiyi was too embarrassed to take it, so he said, "Name your price!"

Yao Yin smiled and said, "No need, you can have it."

Li Weiyi watched her graceful figure disappear around the corner, closed the door, and just as he turned his head, he saw Zhao Zhizhuo's eyes filled with "utter admiration."

"Amazing!" Zhao Zhizhuo exclaimed in admiration.

Li Weiyi's face darkened. "What's so great about that? You have to pay it back. Pay it back!"

"Alright, I, Old Zhao, will consider this a favor I owe."

Zhao Zhizhuo took the blood crystal from Li Weiyi, examined it, and said with emotion, "This can already be called a priceless treasure, comparable to ten of the blood crystals from a few days ago. Healing two lung lobes is a piece of cake. Forgive my bluntness, but this Miss Yin probably has very grand ambitions! If she didn't have something in mind, why would she so easily give away such a precious treasure?"

"Stop talking nonsense, take the blood crystal and go heal your wounds."

After seeing Zhao Zhizhuo off, Li Weiyi was still unsettled. She paced back and forth, pondering the matter, before finally pushing open the door and heading towards the second-floor cabin where Yao Yin was.

As soon as I stepped onto the second-floor deck, I saw her beautiful figure standing against the wind, her silhouette silhouetted against the distant setting sun.

"We should be able to reach Yao Pass by tomorrow morning, Immortal Burial Town won't be far away." Her voice was very pleasant and beautiful.

Li Weiyi walked over and stood beside her, his tall figure towering over her.

In this quiet and beautiful atmosphere, he didn't speak until the sun had completely set, "Why did you participate in the Hidden Gate Trial?"

Yao Yin chuckled inexplicably, "Seeing how difficult it was for you to ask, I thought you were going to borrow money again, which made me anxious."

Li Weiyi replied awkwardly, "I will pay it back, I'll give you 800,000 Silver Coin."

"No need! No matter how much Silver Coin I have, it will all belong to someone else when I die. Or I could transfer all my assets to you... But forget it, a lot of people are eyeing it. Transferring it to you would only bring trouble."

Yao Yin's mood plummeted, her azure gem-like eyes becoming deep and sorrowful, countless painful memories she didn't want to recall flooding her mind.

Li Weiyi asked, "Why did you kill your cousin?"

Yao Yin looked at Li Weiyi as if she were a Little Girl had been trying to hide from the killing, and was suddenly found. Her face was full of fear and terror, and her lips trembled slightly.

"He must have had a reason to die!" Li Weiyi said.

The sunset faded completely, leaving the river pitch black, and the faint sound of weeping could be heard.

The ship's lights were turned on. Li Weiyi turned and left. "I'll pick the Flower of Supreme Yang for you. Until then, you must live well."

Standing at the entrance of the stairwell, Hidden Twenty-Five clearly saw that Li Weiyi's chest was soaked with sweat.

The next morning, the sky was ablaze with Ten Thousand Miles of Morning Glow, like a magnificent dragon soaring through the heavens.

The large ship bearing the medicine flag arrived at Yao Pass.

The entire Sui River was completely blocked here. Huge ships were moored on both banks of the river, their masts like a forest, and their flags fluttering for miles.

Several months passed, and martial arts practitioners from all over the country gathered here, making Yaoguan City overcrowded. The vast majority of martial arts practitioners either lived on boats or set up camp in the mountains and fields.

Law enforcement guards riding enormous birds frequently flew overhead.

Yao Pass is only 300 li away from Immortal Burial Town.

The interior space of the Immortal Burial Town has expanded further, and the celestial glow it releases has spread to this place three hundred miles away. The mountains on both sides of the Sui River are shrouded in mist and haze, the soil exudes a purple light, and the vegetation is as green as jade.

Every now and then, medicinal herbs from the mountains would be tainted by the celestial mist, transforming into exotic medicines that would spark looting and fighting.

A fighting arena was set up on the shore very close to Yaoguan City Wharf, with a Battle Flag erected on each side.

The Battle Flag on the left reads, "Lord Sui Sect of Lizhou".

The Battle Flag on the right reads, "The Jiu Li Tribe has no Perfected Person."

A monkey engulfed in flames sat cross-legged in the center of the arena. Its body and fur were like crimson glass, crystal clear, and it exuded a thick Yao Qi.

The Battle Flag was high, fluttering in the wind, and could be seen from hundreds of feet away.

Hidden Twenty-Five's eyes flashed with a cold light. "This must be a Demon Race expert invited by the Sui Sect to suppress the Jiu Li Tribe. It seems they've completely broken off all pretense of civility!"

Li Weiyi said, "That was a really harsh scolding. Why don't you go and try it yourself?"

Hidden Twenty-Five said, "Wouldn't it be safer for you to go?"

Li Weiyi shook his head. "With my current cultivation level, it would be too uncouth of me to attack a martial artist at the Spring Realm."

Hidden Twenty-Five was speechless, wanting to say that even martial artists in the Five Seas Realm didn't have your kind of class.

After waiting for a long time without seeing a single challenger, Hidden Twenty-Five said, "Something's not right! Logically speaking, these two flags are extremely insulting, clearly intended to help the Sui Sect suppress the Jiu Li Tribe Clan in this place where martial arts practitioners from all over the world gather. In the future, after the Jiu Li Tribe is destroyed, the Sui Sect can rightfully become the master of Lizhou."

"With the continuous emergence of exotic medicines, it's impossible that the Jiu Li Tribe hasn't cultivated several Jiuquan Perfected Person. Why would they just stand there and watch these two flags stand there?"

Hidden Twenty-Five went to gather information.

Yao Yin disembarked from the boat.

She had clearly dressed up carefully today; her eyebrows were drawn like distant mountains shrouded in mist, and a light blush was applied to her cheeks, making them look as delicate and tender as newly blooming peach blossoms against her snow-white skin. She exuded a gentle and graceful charm.

Her blue dress was also meticulously crafted, with neatly arranged buttons, a jade belt that accentuated her slender waist, and jade pendants that jingled with each step.

She wasn't wearing a veil, which attracted many sidelong glances; they were all amazed by her stunning beauty, as if she were a fairy descending to earth.

She walked to Li Weiyi's side and asked softly, "Have you made any progress on what you said last night about picking the Flower of Supreme Yang?"

"Yes, but it requires money, a lot of money," Li Weiyi said.
