Dark Moon, High Winds, Red-Clad Female Ghost!

It was unclear how much time had passed, but the medicinal efficacy within Fei Luo's body could no longer advance, having pushed the effects of the marrow cleansing to their absolute limit.

Human Grade, Fifth Rank!

Five top-tier Marrow Cleansing Pills had elevated Fei Luo's spiritual root from Mortal Grade, Second Rank, to Human Grade, Fifth Rank.

Among spiritual roots, the first rank is the lowest, and the ninth is the most exalted.

A Human Grade, Fifth Rank root is considered an excellent foundation even in this day and age.

Under the Ten Thousandfold Amplification, this Human Grade, Fifth Rank was equivalent to an Earth Grade, Fifth Rank, bordering on Heaven Grade.

Whoosh!

Fei Luo's eyes snapped open, a powerful aura faintly circulating around his body.

"Boom!"

With a mere thought, the black scabs covering his skin instantly crumbled into dust.

"Is this the Foundation Establishment Realm?" Fei Luo clenched his fist, sensing the surging mana within his body, and felt a surge of joy.

In the Foundation Establishment Realm, the sea of energy within the body is developed to its peak; gaseous spiritual energy transforms into liquid, the primordial spirit becomes more stable, and one can unleash numerous Daoist techniques—it is more than a hundred times stronger than the Qi Refining Realm!

Glancing out the window, Fei Luo was surprised. "I didn't expect it to be dark already; it's nine o'clock."

From his seclusion at noon until now, a full eight hours had passed.

In those eight hours, Fei Luo had actually leaped from the third level of the Qi Refining Realm to the early stage of Foundation Establishment?

If this were to get out, it would terrify a great many people.

And Fei Luo was only twenty-one years old this year!

"Under the Ten Thousandfold Amplification, I have reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, and the Qi Guiding Art taught to me by Uncle Nine has reached perfection, yet I haven't even entered the first heaven of the Great Freedom Primordial Dao Scripture?" Fei Luo felt a strange sensation after checking his condition again.

The Great Freedom Primordial Dao Scripture consists of nine heavens.

Yet, as a dignified Foundation Establishment cultivator, he hadn't even crossed the threshold of the first heaven?

"I am still lacking in Daoist techniques. Uncle Nine knows many demon-subduing arts, so I will go ask him for guidance tomorrow." After standing up and glancing in the mirror, Fei Luo was startled.

"Holy crap! Is that me?"

In the mirror, Fei Luo still had his original features, but his skin had become more crystalline. It is no exaggeration to say that his skin was now more delicate than that of an average woman.

Coupled with his sharp crew cut and cold temperament, he was undoubtedly a handsome man.

Of course, this was a refined, handsome look, not the effeminate kind.

Fei Luo's temperament and appearance had undergone a massive transformation during the process of marrow cleansing and absorbing qi into his body.

Fei Luo was unaware that in the path of Daoist cultivation, the improvement of one's realm is a metamorphosis of one's very genes.

"Am I really this handsome?" Fei Luo touched his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Forget it, let me go into town and grab a late-night snack."

Fei Luo cast aside his distracting thoughts and put on a clean cloth robe, looking more like a dashing young master from a wealthy family.

"Wontons for sale~"

Stepping out to the street corner, he saw a wonton stall across the way and walked over with a smile.

"Isn't this Young Master Fei Luo? Would you like a bowl of wontons?" The vendor was a middle-aged man in his forties who immediately greeted him with a smile upon seeing him.

Fei Luo was generous and famous for his good temper; people from all around liked this young gentleman.

"Old Zhang, give me a bowl, and add extra vinegar." Fei Luo didn't stand on ceremony and sat down at a small table.

"Coming right up~"

The boss hummed a little tune and began to busy himself.

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Fei Luo's heart stirred; he sensed a peculiar aura.

As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, how could his five senses be anything but sharp?

After the marrow cleansing, his senses were even more acute than those of an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"Heavenly Venerable Dharma Eye!"

With a thought from Fei Luo, golden light gathered in his eyes as he looked toward the northwest.

Whoosh!

The space seemed to draw closer, and Fei Luo saw a village—it was Li Family Village, located outside Ren Family Town.

In the ethereal distance, Fei Luo saw a blood-red aura drifting above the village.

"Yin energy pressing on the gateway in the northwest; it must be an evil entity at work." The golden light in Fei Luo's eyes flashed and vanished, and the people around him noticed nothing unusual.

"Boss, the money is here. I'll come back for the wontons later."

Fei Luo stood up, tossed a dozen copper coins onto the table, and headed toward the northwest.

"Hey, Young Master Fei Luo, you gave me too much!" Old Zhang called out in haste.

"No need to look for me."

Fei Luo's resonant voice carried on the wind, his figure already sprinting and vanishing into the night.

If this had happened in the past, Fei Luo would certainly have called for Uncle Nine.

But now that he had reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, he had no fear of evil spirits of this caliber.

After leaving the town, the powerful mana of the Foundation Establishment Realm coated the soles of his feet, causing his speed to surge once more.

Lacking corresponding supernatural abilities, Fei Luo could only rely on this clumsy method.

Li Family Village, located outside Ren Family Town, was a village under the jurisdiction of Ren Family Town. Situated by the water, most of the villagers here made their living through farming.

That night.

A red figure drifted over. It was a woman, her long, slender legs faintly visible beneath a red gauze dress, her figure graceful and curvaceous.

"Hehehe~"

In the night sky above Li Family Village, several dogs began to bark frantically.

In a household that had just extinguished its lamps to sleep, the woman seemed to catch the scent of pure, masculine energy and stepped into the courtyard with a light laugh.

Inside the house, the Red-Clad Female Ghost drifted in.

"Am I beautiful?"

Li Zheng was a villager of Li Family Village. At this moment, he looked at the beautiful woman before him in terror, his teeth chattering uncontrollably.

A ghost~

This is a ghost~

Li Zheng was twenty-eight years old this year, a well-known strong man in the village, and was not yet married.

The woman before him was extremely beautiful, and her faintly visible figure was doing everything to captivate his gaze.

But the bone-chilling cold told Li Zheng that this woman was a ghost!

Her feet did not touch the ground, her body was as light as a goose feather, and her bare feet were spotless. If not for this biting chill, Li Zheng would have truly believed a fairy had descended to earth.

"Husband, are you really so afraid of this concubine?"

Seeing Li Zheng's state, the Red-Clad Female Ghost extended a slender, delicate hand to lift her gauze skirt. Her vermilion lips parted slightly, and a gas carrying an exotic fragrance puffed out, filling the room.

"Gulp~" Li Zheng swallowed hard, his eyes gradually dimming. "Beautiful, truly beautiful."

As he spoke, Li Zheng rose like a wooden puppet, moving mechanically toward the Red-Clad Female Ghost.

"Come, let's have some fun~"

The Red-Clad Female Ghost beckoned with her slender fingers, as if soul-snatching, drawing Li Zheng forward.

"As expected of a virgin body. If I drain him dry, I might be able to take another step forward and ascend to Ghost King." The woman in red extended her scarlet tongue to lick her vermilion lips, her eyes filled with greed.

One step, two steps, three steps.

Drool flowed from Li Zheng's mouth, a tent pitched in his trousers, his eyes vacant as he leaned toward the Red-Clad Female Ghost.

"Yes, just like that. I will make you happy."

The Red-Clad Female Ghost waved her sleeve, and the red gauze instantly enveloped Li Zheng. She leaned down, pressing her luscious, dripping vermilion lips toward Li Zheng's, and visible wisps of dark energy could be seen being drawn from Li Zheng's seven orifices into the Red-Clad Female Ghost's mouth.

"Hiss~"

The Red-Clad Female Ghost's expression was one of intoxication. She wanted to quicken the pace of her breathing, knowing there was an expert at the nearby Justice Manor; this place was not suitable for a long stay.

"Audacious monster! Release that man and come at me instead!"

Just at that moment, a roar like a thunderclap erupted, echoing outside the house.
