Dripping Heart's Blood
Given the special nature of his Martial Soul, it was best if Li Fei could avoid going out and revealing his Soul Rings.
After all, a first Soul Ring that was a thousand years old was indeed shocking.
So during this time, Li Fei used the Eastern Azure Dragon Art to see if he could hide his Soul Rings. That would greatly reduce the pressure and danger he faced.
"In this world, without a powerful backer, having talent that is too monstrous is also a crime."
Li Fei sighed.
If he had known that the Azure Dragon Staff could absorb Soul Rings to increase their age, he would rather have absorbed a hundred-year yellow Soul Ring.
"But thankfully, I finally succeeded. From now on, I can use Soul Skills without exposing my Soul Rings."
The next second, Li Fei revealed a satisfied smile.
"Xiao Fei, Grandpa's coming!"
Holding the Dragon Pattern Staff, Li Yusong attacked him as usual.
Battle intent surged within Li Fei. He picked up the Azure Dragon Staff and charged forward.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
One old and one young clashed fiercely on the back mountain of the Li Family.
Previously, Li Fei could only unleash the First Force when wielding the Nine Strengths of the Azure Dragon.
Using the Second Force was still rather strenuous for him.
Fortunately, that was no longer much of a problem. After a week of training, he could now unleash the Second Force.
Even Li Yusong did not dare take that terrifying explosive power head-on.
Having a free Soul Emperor as a sparring partner already put him far ahead of many others.
Li Yusong also taught Li Fei everything he knew about staff techniques without holding anything back.
"There are still too few opportunities on Douluo Continent."
"I have to make plans for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. With immortal herbs, I can raise my family's upper limit of talent."
"It's just that the place belongs to Dugu Bo. Even if Flender and the others joined forces right now, they still wouldn't be enough."
"In that case, I'll make plans for Whale Rubber instead."
After their sparring session ended, Li Fei pondered inwardly.
A week passed, and his Soul Power had also risen to the peak of Rank 19.
He could already sense Rank 20. The shackle holding him back had loosened.
If nothing unexpected happened, he might successfully break through within the next couple of days!
With the Eastern Azure Dragon Art and his current supreme talent, cultivation was as easy as drinking water!
He wanted to challenge himself to become a Title Douluo before the age of twelve!
If possible, he planned for his second Soul Ring to begin at ten thousand years.
Absorbing a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring meant not only enduring the impact on the body, but also facing an assault on the mind.
Once he broke through to Rank 20 Soul Power, his physical strength should no longer be much of a problem.
"With the Eastern Azure Dragon protecting me within my Spirit Sea, I don't need to worry about the resentment of a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast. Maybe it can even become nourishment to strengthen my spirit."
Li Fei thought to himself.
"Xiao Fei, let's go eat."
"There's good news tonight."
Li Yusong wiped away his sweat. The more outstanding his grandson became, the happier he was.
"Alright." Li Fei nodded.
Soon, the family of four gathered around the table for dinner.
"Father, Mother, how has the market verification been going?" Li Fei asked curiously.
"Very well! We prepared ten thousand units, and with the advertising method you taught us, they all sold out in less than one morning. Everyone is still placing orders and fighting to buy them!"
Soul Masters were fast and efficient. It took six days to produce the Tissue and Sanitary Napkins, and on the seventh day, they began trying to sell them through each of their businesses. Together with the advertising methods Li Fei taught them, everything sold out completely and became extremely popular!
"That's good. I suggest we seek cooperation with the other merchant families in Suotuo City and find other merchants to act as agents. As long as we keep the production method in our own hands, and with Grandpa, a Soul Emperor, plus the Soul Saint and Soul Emperor support from Shrek Academy, we have enough power that anyone who doesn't want to die will have to think twice."
"In the early stages, it's better for everyone to make money peacefully."
"The most important thing now is to sell our products as quickly as possible and exchange them for more money to buy cultivation resources."
Li Fei said.
"Xiao Fei, you're right. Before we have absolute strength, we really can't keep everything for ourselves. I already had that idea. When the time comes, I'll invite the families and merchants in the city to discuss it."
"We also need to get Shrek Academy established as soon as possible. We should use those people to stabilize the situation first."
Li Jianguo nodded.
"I never expected my Xiao Fei to not only have such powerful talent, but also such a sharp business mind!" Su Lan praised him gently.
"Don't worry. I received word that Shrek Academy's teachers will all return to the academy tomorrow. Tomorrow, I'll personally take Xiao Fei there to speak with them." Li Yusong said.
"Alright." Li Jianguo nodded.
"Father, please keep an eye out for Whale Rubber. If possible, gather as much as you can." Li Fei said.
"What do you need that for, brat? Do you know what Whale Rubber is used for?" Li Jianguo's expression turned strange.
Su Lan and Li Yusong felt the same way.
"Whale Rubber is used as an aphrodisiac. What are you trying to do, brat?"
Su Lan's face unconsciously flushed, and she looked at him with mild reproach.
Li Fei hurriedly explained, "I read in an ancient book that after Whale Rubber is melted at high temperatures, its refined essence can be extracted. It can strengthen the body."
"Really? But if that's true, why has no one on the continent known about it all these years?"
"That stuff reeks to high heaven."
Li Jianguo and Su Lan both looked doubtful.
"Why are you asking so many questions? Whether it's true or not, won't we know after buying one and trying it?"
"It's only an aphrodisiac, not some major side effect. If it fails, then it fails."
"But if it works, it'll be a good thing for all of us!"
"This must not get out. We have to keep it secret."
Li Yusong said indifferently as he ate from his bowl.
"Alright, I'll keep an eye out for it." Li Jianguo nodded.
"Oh, right. We made some delicious soup today. I'll have someone bring it over."
Su Lan said.
"No need, I'll go." Li Fei stood up and walked into the kitchen.
The others did not think much of it and continued eating.
After Li Fei entered the kitchen, he happened to see the four bowls of soup.
He stretched out his hand and forced out three drops of heart's blood with his Soul Power.
After being transformed by the Eastern Azure Dragon, his blood had become precious blood, let alone his heart's blood.
His face turned pale, but the powerful Life Force and Growth Force quickly restored him.
To him, it was basically nothing.
The three drops of heart's blood all contained dense life energy.
"Drinking my blood will improve your constitutions and greatly extend your lifespans. As long as I'm here, my family won't die."
He smiled, dripped the blood into three bowls of soup, stirred them, then carried them out for his grandfather and parents to drink.
After finishing the soup, the three of them felt something different in their bodies. They felt especially full of vitality and life.
All three of them became younger.
"I didn't expect this soup to be so effective!"
"I feel full of strength!"
"I don't know if it's just an illusion, but I feel Father has become younger."
As the three of them expressed their amazement, Li Fei joined in and played along.
The family of four was warm and happy.
After dinner, Li Fei returned to the densely vegetated area on the back mountain and began meditating and cultivating, striving to break through to Rank 20 as quickly as possible.
With the help of the Eastern Azure Dragon Art, the wood-attributed energy from the surrounding vegetation rapidly poured into his body, increasing his Soul Power, spiritual power, and physical strength.
As long as it belonged to him, he did not leave out a single thing!
