Half an hour later.

Li Mo looked at the newly forged <Fire Lotus Extreme Yang Force> in his hand and fell into deep thought.

This is a unique Supreme Lore.

With a foundation in the Fire Heart Lotus-Birth Technique, and after ten years of martial arts enlightenment, he easily mastered it.

A Higher Vehicle mental cultivation method has become Supreme Lore; the difference between the two is absolutely visible to the naked eye.

However...

Although the fluctuations emanating from the thirty-six lotus seeds were much stronger, there was still no sign of them taking root or sprouting.

I refuse to believe it.

Li Mo then took out a bottle of Ten Thousand Year Earth Vein Spirit Milk, uncorked it, and took a big gulp.

Instantly, a feeling of swelling came from my Dantian and meridians.

He activated the <Fire Lotus Extreme Yang Force> to its fullest extent, and each lotus seed seemed to become a water pump, frantically absorbing the Earth Vein Essence.

Fifteen minutes later.

A wisp of fire actually emerged from his Dantian.

"Internal Breath!?"

Before Li Mo could even feel a surge of surprise...

Moment.

The newly generated Internal Breath vanished without a trace.

It was as if it had been swallowed by an unseen abyss, vanishing without a trace.

He was completely bewildered.

It's one thing to have difficulty condensing Internal Breath, but even if you manage to condense it, will it disappear?

"This is weird."

"I can't break through to a higher realm even after practicing Supreme Lore?"

"Will I be stuck at the Blood-Qi Realm forever?"

Li Mo opened his eyes, stopped circulating his Cultivation Method, and looked utterly bewildered.

He forced himself to calm down and think things through.

The Cultivation Method derived from the Ancient Bronze Heavenly Book Seal is definitely not a problem.

The problem must lie with yourself.

"Profound Gate Immortal Physique?"

A flash of inspiration struck Li Mo, he murmured to himself.

To be honest, although he had possessed Immortal Body for a long time, he knew very little about this physique.

When I went to the Scripture Pavilion, I also browsed through some strange tales and legends, but I never found any record of them.

But after thinking it over...

He could find no other reason besides the Immortal Body.

"Thirty-six lotus seeds are very difficult to condense into Internal Breath through Supreme Lore, and..."

"My body cannot contain Internal Breath."

These two issues have been identified.

Li Mo fell into deep thought again.

What to do?

After careful consideration, he concluded that there were two methods that might be reliable.

First, after resuming your cultivation, do not open all thirty-six main meridians this time. Instead, like an ordinary person, only open twelve main meridians.

Second, a higher-grade silver Heavenly Book Seal.

By using the silver Heavenly Book Seal, one can transform Supreme Lore into a divine power.

And.

He also possesses a Gilded Heavenly Book Seal, which could even elevate the <Fire Lotus Extreme Yang Force> to another rank, allowing this martial art to reach...

Beyond divine skills!

The thirty-six meridians allow for a powerful circulation of Qi and Blood throughout the body.

Once you enter the Inner Breath Realm, it becomes even more unimaginable.

"Since it's already open..."

"Then we must see it through to the end."

Li Mo hesitated for only three and a third seconds before making his choice.

We have the Ice Block and Princess Little Jiang; this mere silver Heavenly Book Seal is nothing.

It's just around the corner.

Back at the Autumn Water Pavilion.

The leaves on the trees in the courtyard had stopped swaying, covered with patches of white frost, weighed down and unable to lift their heads.

Tonight, Autumn Water Pavilion is exceptionally cold; stepping inside feels like stepping into the dead of winter, where even a drop of water freezes instantly.

Inside a certain Ice Block- shaped room.

It exuded an astonishing chill, along with wisps of rosy light.

"If you said tonight, then tonight it is."

"She'll be at the Inner Breath Realm tomorrow, right?"

Li Mo sighed and went back to the next room.

It's not that cold.

His bed was against the wall, and the bedding was frozen solid.

Suddenly, he had a premonition.

It was a fluctuation transmitted from the World Seed.

"Jiang Chulong always very punctual."

Li Mo lay on the bed, resting his body, while his consciousness entered the World Seed.

"Teacher...!"

Jiang Chulong sat obediently like a duck in front of the stone table.

Upon seeing a figure carrying 'textbooks' approaching, a small smile immediately bloomed on her face.

Li Mo leisurely sat down at the table and casually made tea.

He didn't drink the tea he had brewed, and looked up to say:

"Well, have you all grasped what I taught you last time?"

"Uh-huh!"

Jiang Chulong a chick pecking at rice.

She's extremely serious.

The Teacher Heavenly Venerable has very high standards, and she was afraid of not meeting them and displeasing him.

Even when I go out to collect trash every day, I have to wave a tree branch around a couple of times.

"Okay, let me explain what you were wondering about last time."

The Heavenly Venerable opened the textbook.

This textbook was kindly provided by Ice Block and revised by Little Li.

There is only one copy of this book in the entire world.

Jiang Chulong's swordsmanship talent is excessive.

After these days of preaching, without being taught any Swordsmanship techniques, she perfected her self-created martial arts to Higher Vehicle.

And it's not far from becoming Supreme Lore.

That's outrageous.

This time, just like a sponge, it absorbed all the sword knowledge that Li Mo brought from Ice Block.

Midway through, Li Mo tried to keep up with her train of thought.

He even used his martial arts insights to understand the swordsmanship knowledge taught by Ying Bing.

The less-than-pleasant lecture session for Li Mo ended.

"How is your recovery going?"

"Almost... almost there."

Jiang Chulong's fingers twisted together as she spoke.

"Then strike while the iron is hot, recover as soon as possible, and start practicing martial arts again as soon as possible."

Li Mo then took out various tonics.

Once Jiang Chulong has fully recovered, she should receive a decent reward, right?

That's what I was thinking.

"Teacher..."

"Um?"

Li Mo looked up.

He noticed Jiang Chulong across from him, her lips pursed as if she wanted to say something, her fingers twisted together, and a hint of anticipation flickering in her pale eyes...

"What is it?"

"I... I want... I want to hear the stories of the Desolate Realm."

"..."

After the last training session, in order to motivate Princess Little Jiang, Li Mo slightly embellished the novel he had read in his previous life and turned it into a legend for her to hear.

It has to be said.

A novel that he can remember has a powerful motivating effect...

It's also very good-looking.

Jiang Chulong's sparkling expectation could only be summed up in two words:

"Please update!"

"Alright..."

The next day.

Shang Wu actually got up very early.

Her stern voice echoed in the small Autumn Water Pavilion:

"For many years, our Jade Cluster Peak has suffered repeated defeats, yet we have fought on despite these setbacks, leading to a decline in morale and a loss of prestige. This situation must be completely reversed from now on."

"Little Bing, my precious apprentice, we must show our style, our confidence, and our best results this time!"

"To rebuild the glory of Jade Cluster Peak, you all..."

Shang Wu clenched her fist, as if she could already see Jade Cluster Peak, under her leadership, returning to its former glory as the top peak.

A moment of silence.

Little Li glanced at the Ice Block before raising his hand and saying:

"Master, what we're saying is, is there any possibility?"

"Is Ying Bing True Disciple of the sect leader?"

Shang Wu: "!"

That's right.

How could I have forgotten about that?

Her almond-shaped eyes immediately lost their sparkle.

"That's terrible, I bet a lot of money..."

Li Mo: "... There are gambling games within the sect?"

So you're not only eyeing the sect's rewards, but also planning to make money through shady dealings, huh?

"That was brilliant! I bet on Jade Cluster Peak to be number one."

Shang Wu looked as if she had been hit by frost, glanced at her apprentice, and shook her head, saying:

"Oh no, it's definitely hopeless."

My precious disciple is only at the Blood-Qi Realm.

She had originally placed high hopes on Ying Bing had broken through to the Internal Breath.

Li Mo said helplessly:

"I alone shouldn't be able to cause our Jade Cluster Peak to rank so badly."

"It's no use. I bet on first place. Do you think you can beat Little Bing?"

Shang Wu shook her head again.

She's already starting to plan how to renege on her debt.

Thus, the pre-match pep talk at the Autumn Water Pavilion ended hastily.

Old Ba arrived on time with his horse-drawn carriage at the gate.

"You two True Disciples, it's time to head to the main peak!"
