Peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng, Rejected by the World Again
After absorbing all the power of heaven and earth from the Nine Mysterious Golden Lightning, the power of the Yin-Yang Sword suddenly increased dramatically.
The next moment, the newly formed Ninth-Grade Golden Pill trembled violently as the Pill Lightning disappeared, attempting to escape.
Li Changqing was prepared; his powerful Soul Force directly blocked the Ninth-Grade Golden Pill's retreat.
Seeing that there was no way to escape, the Ninth-Grade Golden Pill stopped struggling, but did not give up. Instead, it transformed into a stunningly beautiful woman with a tall, perfect figure, a slender waist, and graceful curves that attracted everyone's attention.
The woman had long black hair that reached her waist, and wore a sexy cheongsam. What was most eye-catching were her stunningly long, fair and jade-like legs.
She was looking at Li Changqing with a smile, her eyes filled with a strong allure.
Perhaps because it was refined by Li Changqing, the woman transformed from this Ninth-Grade Golden Pill looked exactly like Li Changqing's ideal type.
After staring at you for a moment, Li Changqing shook his head and laughed, "Under normal circumstances, I might have spared your life."
"Unfortunately, only with a higher cultivation level will I have more confidence to snatch the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill. So, you'd better obediently become my help in breaking through my cultivation level."
Hearing that Li Changqing was still unwilling to let her go, the stunningly beautiful woman, who had transformed from Ninth-Grade Golden Pill, hardened her expression and charged towards Li Changqing.
Li Changqing smiled slightly, held the Yin-Yang Sword, and gently swung it.
A Sword Qi slashed through, instantly revealing the stunning woman's true form.
Immediately afterwards, a powerful Soul Force penetrated the body, directly erasing the consciousness of the Ninth-Grade Golden Pill.
The Ninth-Grade Golden Pill ceased its violent reaction and obediently fell into Li Changqing's palm.
Just then, Gu Yuena and the Amethyst Winged Lion King returned and witnessed this scene.
They were already used to seeing Ninth-Grade Golden Pill transform into human form; after all, Li Changqing had done the same when he refined Ninth-Grade Profound Pill before.
Their eyes were fixed intently on the Ninth-Grade Golden Pill that was emitting a rich medicinal power.
This is Ninth-Grade Golden Pill, Li Changqing actually managed to refine it.
This signifies that he has become the only Alchemist in the entire Dou Qi Continent capable of refining Ninth-Grade Golden Pill, Alchemy are unmatched.
Li Changqing raised his eyes and looked at them. The Yin-Yang Sword flashed with black and white light and transformed back into a pattern in his palm.
"While you protect me outside, I need to focus on refining the Ninth-Grade Golden Pill in seclusion."
Gu Yuena and the Amethyst Winged Lion King left in obedience. Li Changqing took a deep breath, swallowed the Ninth-Grade Golden Pill, and silently digested its medicinal power by circulating the Kunpeng Method.
A full month later, an extremely powerful aura emanated from Li Changqing's secluded cultivation location.
Gu Yuena and the Amethyst Winged Lion King, who were on guard on the perimeter, were startled by this powerful aura.
They quickly realized that Li Changqing had successfully broken through and become the strongest person on the Dou Qi Continent, Peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng.
In his secluded retreat, Li Changqing exhaled a long breath, clenched his fist slightly, felt the powerful energy within his body, and nodded in satisfaction.
"I've finally reached the Peak Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Sheng. With the blessing of the Kunpeng Method, even the Hun Tiandi and Gu Yuan combined can't defeat me. I don't even need to continue pretending anymore; I can go directly to the Hun Clan and steal the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill without any problem."
After a moment's thought, Li Changqing shook his head and ultimately gave up on the plan.
After all, in the original story, it took the Hun Tiandi a great deal of effort to refine the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill into a complete pill.
First, they used people captured from the Medicine, Spirit, and Stone races for blood sacrifice, and even used the descendants of the Hun Clan for blood sacrifice. Even so, they still failed to complete the refining of the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill.
The Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill was finally completed, but it required a blood sacrifice to the entire Central Plains, which would cause Central Plains suffering and death. Li Changqing could not bring himself to do such a thing.
Although Li Changqing possessed a drop of Dou Di Blood containing the Dou Di Origin, it was far too diluted.
This meager amount of Dou Di Origin is not enough to complete the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill.
As he was thinking this, Li Changqing felt a sudden tremor in his heart; that feeling of being rejected by the world and about to leave this world returned.
It was the same back in the Douluo Continent. As soon as I became a top expert, this feeling of being rejected by the world came over me.
Then, just a few months later, Spacetime Black Hole appeared without any warning, directly transporting him to the Dou Qi Continent.
Li Changqing experienced this feeling, his face full of speechlessness.
He had only just become one of the strongest in this world, and before he could even do whatever he wanted, he was forced to leave this world. He didn't know what to say.
Li Changqing shook his head and sighed, "Oh well. In any case, I'll get my hands on the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill first, and then we'll talk about breaking through to the Dou Di."
Only by becoming strong can we have the confidence to face the dangers that may arise in the next world.
After sighing, Li Changqing slowly got up and walked out of his secluded cultivation place.
Gu Yuena and the Amethyst Winged Lion King sensed the powerful aura and had already come outside to wait.
Upon seeing Li Changqing emerge, the Amethyst Winged Lion King was the first to fawn over Li Changqing, acting like a sycophant. "Congratulations, Master, on becoming a top expert in the Dou Qi Continent!"
Gu Yuena also showed a sincere smile of congratulations.
Li Changqing nodded in satisfaction, then pulled Gu Yuena into his arms, teasingly saying, "Now that I've broken through, shouldn't you do something to show your appreciation?"
Gu Yuena blushed and immediately understood what Li Changqing was going to do.
The Amethyst Winged Lion King understood and immediately flew away; he had become accustomed to such occurrences over the past five years.
Every now and then, Li Changqing would spend time alone with Gu Yuena, the purpose of which was self-evident.
The Amethyst Winged Lion King couldn't quite understand it. In his opinion, such things were not only time-consuming and laborious, but would also interfere with cultivation. How could they compare to the comfort of breaking through one's cultivation level?
Li Changqing is currently at the Peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng, possessing an incredibly powerful physical body, capable of easily lifting Gu Yuena in his arms.
Gu Yuena leaned against Li Changqing's chest, her face full of smiles.
Gu Yuena's face was rosy, clearly indicating that she was in a good mood.
After lying down for a while, a Jade Bottle appeared in Li Changqing's hand.
Gu Yuena's eyes gleamed as she looked at the Jade Bottle and asked, "What is this?"
Li Changqing said calmly, "Ninth Grade Precious Pill, the Bodhisattva Great Recovery Pill. You are already Nine-Turn Dou Venerate; with this pill, your chances of breaking through to the Half-Saint can be increased by forty percent."
Gu Yuena's face lit up with joy. She stretched out her still somewhat weak hands and tightly grasped the jade Jade Bottle containing the Bodhisattva Great Recovery Pill.
Since following Li Changqing, she has served him diligently, and now she has finally received her reward.
Without Li Changqing's help, she would probably still be stuck at the Dou Ancestor level, with becoming Dou Zun being a pipe dream.
As for becoming Nine-Turn Dou Venerate and seeing any hope of breaking through to Half-Saint, he didn't even dare to dream of it.
