On the Road Again! Yingtian in Sight!

With a flash of light, Li Bufan arrived in Flame Desert City.

Li Bufan had barely stepped out of the Teleportation Formation when a man who looked like a steward came forward, his face wreathed in smiles. "You must be Young Master Li. I'm the manager of the Ten Thousand Spirits District branch in Flame Desert City. Just call me Old Zhou."

"Proprietor Zhao sent word that you'd arrive today and told us to look after you. You must be tired from your journey, young master. Please, follow me."

Li Bufan nodded. "Sorry for the trouble, Manager Zhou."

Manager Zhou led Li Bufan through several corridors to a small courtyard. After settling him in one of its best rooms and ordering hot water and food to be brought over, he took his leave.

Li Bufan closed the door and sat down beside the bed. Rather than eat, he sat cross-legged and began examining the changes in his body.

It was already late. To return to Qi State, he would still have to cross the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range after leaving Flame Desert City.

Bone Structure Realm Demon Beasts were not uncommon in those mountains, and they could rival human Acupoint Realm cultivators. He had to be at his best to make it through safely.

His spiritual sense sank into his Qi Sea. The Five-Colored Ring revolved slowly in his dantian, and Five Elements True Qi now filled three-tenths of the space inside it.

His breakthrough in true qi cultivation had also advanced his Nine Revolutions Golden Wall Art and Constant Stillness One Scripture. Essence, qi, and spirit had always been inseparable.

His Qi Sea Third Stage cultivation had nourished both his body and his spiritual sense. He clenched his fist. Immense power surged through him, and his knuckles crackled.
