Chapter 617: 113 Hundred Days Breakthrough

Chapter 617: Chapter 113 Hundred Days Breakthrough

When in Ming Province, Li Fei had to return to Lanling City with the State Preceptor Yun Shu because he needed to guard against the Lu Family and Xu Jing attacking him.

At that time, although he had the reputation of being the best in history, he was still an imperial envoy.

But if he had died, it wouldn’t have caused too severe consequences.

Now, however, Li Fei was different.

Marquis Jing’an, Blue Patrol Envoy.

Whichever identity, his death would have stirred massive turmoil!

The Lu Family and Xu Jing wanted to kill him. If they didn’t want to perish together, they could only resort to assassination and leave no trace.

In this world, True Masters, Martial Arts Masters, and Grandmasters all had notable identities, trackable origins, and it was hard to act without leaving any traces.

Thus, to assassinate Li Fei, they could only employ Tao Foundation Stage Martial Artists or Possession Stage Great Mages.

Li Fei was not afraid at all!

…

February 13.

The train departing from Datong Prefecture entered Gan Province.

In the compartment, Li Fei and Xu Xiaotian sat cross-legged, with Li Fei sitting behind Xu Xiaotian, placing his hands on the latter’s back.

Li Fei was currently channeling his force into Xu Xiaotian’s body, then perceiving the status of the Implant branches within him using the “Observing Freedom Method.”

The “Observing Freedom Method” was one of the Unity Techniques recorded in the “Red Sound Fire Vajra Skill,” a top-tier Unity Technique of the Buddhist.

Initially, Li Fei had created his “Ten-day Integration Method” using this legacy combined with Wuda’s “Whole Extraction Method.”

Although he couldn’t teach his own method to Xu Xiaotian, he could use the “Observing Freedom Method” to assist Xu Xiaotian’s cultivation.

Moments later, both ended this cultivation session.

“Do you remember everything?”

Li Fei asked.

He had just used the “Observing Freedom Method” to guide him on how to consolidate the branches of the Implant at some critical points.

“I remember, thank you, Marquis!”

Xu Xiaotian stood up and bowed deeply to Li Fei with gratitude.

Even his master, Ye Yu, couldn’t provide such detailed guidance, for Ye Yu didn’t possess a premier legacy like the “Observing Freedom Method” nor Li Fei’s powerful perception.

If Li Fei could provide such guidance every day, he was confident he would achieve “Unity” within a year!

Of course, he knew it was impossible for someone like Li Fei to spend everyday not cultivating himself and instead focusing on guiding him.

But even if Li Fei only guided him at critical points, he was confident he would breakthrough to the Tao Foundation Stage within two years.

At that time, he would be 25 years old, truly a prodigious figure!

Li Fei looked at Xu Xiaotian and hesitated for a moment before speaking,

“I have a special cultivation method, but it will be very painful and somewhat dangerous during the process. Would you like to try it?”

Xu Xiaotian was taken aback but nodded without hesitation,

“Marquis, I am willing!”

“Good.”

Li Fei had Xu Xiaotian sit cross-legged again and then had him use his force to simulate part of the Implant branches’ “passage.”

Yes, this was part of the operation of his self-created “Ten-day Integration Method.”

Xu Xiaotian’s Spiritual Power was quite good, and he quickly managed to simulate this small segment of the “passage” with his force.

Once Xu Xiaotian had finished, Li Fei began to use force to excise part of the flesh inside his body!

“Ugh!”

Xu Xiaotian immediately grunted, his expression pained.

“Steady your mind. Don’t let the simulated passage change!”

Li Fei said sternly.

This was one of the difficulties of this cultivation method.

Others didn’t have a Myriad Blood Pearl to share the damage and pain, and they had to maintain precise control over their force while enduring great pain.

This difficulty was enormous, not suited for those without great perseverance.

And this was just the beginning.

Li Fei removed the flesh inside Xu Xiaotian’s body bit by bit.

He was also very careful with this process because Xu Xiaotian didn’t have a Myriad Blood Pearl, and his life force wasn’t as strong as Li Fei’s. Many methods that could be directly applied on himself couldn’t be used on Xu Xiaotian.

Fortunately, Li Fei, having experienced “integration” four times, could have written a book on “Human Anatomy and Implant Branch Structure.”

Thus, with his extensive experience, Li Fei successfully completed this step.

“Control this part of the Implant to consolidate.”

He told Xu Xiaotian.

At this moment, Xu Xiaotian was pale and sweating profusely from pain!

With strong willpower, he stabilized the force without disturbance and gradually started to consolidate the Implant branches.

More than an hour later, Xu Xiaotian completed the consolidation of that section of Implant branches.

Normally, using the Unity Method, it would have required at least three days to complete this consolidation!

But this was still not the end.

Li Fei had the Myriad Blood Pearl. No matter how severe the injury, he could heal within ten days.

This minor injury inside Xu Xiaotian’s body, he could heal in less than an hour.

But Xu Xiaotian couldn’t.

He needed several days to regrow the lost flesh.

But he definitely couldn’t maintain the “passage” with his force continuously for several days.

Li Fei took out an Elixir he had prepared beforehand and handed it to Xu Xiaotian: “Take one.”

So Xu Xiaotian took an elixir.

Over an hour later, Xu Xiaotian’s injuries had healed.

The elixir that Li Fei took out could only be purchased by marquises, a supreme healing elixir specially provided by the court, with excellent effects.

At this point, Xu Xiaotian had finally completed his cultivation.

Li Fei also confirmed his own idea:

Strong willpower, good talent, his assistance, and finally, a supreme healing elixir.

Only then could one cultivate the weakened version of the “Hundred Days Returning to One Method”.

Depending on one’s willpower and talent, using this method could generally complete the Unity within a hundred to three hundred days!

Moreover, in this world, only Li Fei could assist others in cultivating this “Hundred Days Returning to One Method”.

Not because Li Fei’s spiritual power or the cultivation technique he mastered was unique, but because Li Fei’s experience was unique.

He was the only one in this world who had the experience of employing the most violent way to “dissect” oneself and consolidate branches of the Implant, and not just once.

Having someone inexperienced attempt this would have a low safety factor and could easily result in death.

“Go back and rest well, we’ll continue tomorrow.”

Li Fei told Xu Xiaotian.

The latter’s force and spiritual power had almost been exhausted.

Hearing that they could continue the next day, Xu Xiaotian felt both pain and pleasure, thanked Li Fei, and then left the private room.

“Later on, I can specially recruit martial artists with strong willpower and good talent. As long as I’m willing to spend time and resources, I have a chance to quickly cultivate Tao Foundation Stage strong practitioners!”

Li Fei thought excitedly.

But then he thought again; martial artists with strong willpower and good talent were already rare, and the ‘good talent’ criterion meant they could break through to the Tao Foundation Stage.

Not that Li Fei could randomly take any martial artist and cultivate them into the Tao Foundation Stage.

What Li Fei could truly do was to enable these already potential Tao Foundation Stage martial artists to Breakthrough at a faster pace.

Of course, this was enough to attract attention!

In the private room, Li Fei gathered his mind and began his own cultivation.

February 15th

Gansheng Province.

Red Sleeve Tavern was currently the most famous tavern in the provincial city, as from the proprietress down to the serving maids, they were all beauties!

Such a place naturally tended to attract trouble.

But since the day the Red Sleeve Tavern started business, now for over three years,

Any young master who caused trouble in this tavern always returned dejected to make a public apology.

Thus, everyone knew that this tavern had solid backing, which also made it even more famous.

Today, the fifth floor of the Red Sleeve Tavern was reserved.

The person who reserved it was Su Yifei, the only son of Xu Xuesong, the provincial inspector of Gan Province.

Naturally, this Su gentleman was considered a top wastrel of the entire Gan Province; if even he could not provoke the Red Sleeve Tavern, no one else would believe it.

But, this same Su gentleman not only never caused trouble in the tavern, he also frequently brought people to patronize, often booking an entire floor!

“Master Su, I heard that Marquis Jing’an, Li Fei, has arrived in our provincial city today; did Lord Su go to the station to welcome him?”

At the table by the window on the fifth floor, a man initiated a conversation with Su Yifei.

Hearing the name Li Fei, Su Yifei seemed somewhat displeased and scoffed,

“Li Fei, no matter how impressive, is not worth my father personally going to welcome him.”

The people at the table saw Su Yifei’s displeasure and chimed in agreement.

The conversation turned to other topics, all about light and merry matters.

“Speaking of which, Li Fei is currently ranked third on the Fengyun Leaderboard. After the news of his severe injury to True Master Fei was confirmed, many in the World have mentioned his ranking is too low. Coincidentally, Miss Shentu is right here in our city. Do you think Li Fei would challenge Miss Shentu this time?”

Someone suddenly brought up Li Fei again, this time discussing matters of the World.

Gan Province didn’t have a university, but it had a top martial arts sect—the Red Dust Pavilion!

‘One floor, one pavilion, Three Mountains, Four Sects, Seven Families,’ and the ‘one pavilion’ referred to the Red Dust Pavilion, whose pavilion master was one of the ‘Seven Martial Saints.’

The Red Dust Pavilion was located just outside the provincial city of Gan Province. The contemporary pavilion master’s closed-door disciple, Shen Tuyue, was also a well-known exceptional talent in the World, 25 years old and ranked second on the Fengyun Leaderboard.

“Li Fei might indeed challenge Miss Shentu. After all, he has fought with the Fairy Ruoyun before.”

“Who do you think would win?”

“As a fellow Gan Province citizen, I naturally support Miss Shentu.”

“Ah, but I think Li Fei has a better chance of winning.”

“Master Su, who do you think will win?”

Everyone turned their attention to Su Yifei.

Su Yifei lifted his cup and took a sip, then said vehemently,

“Li Fei is already a marquis and still fights and kills like a Jianghu person. What kind of propriety is that?”

“….”

The comment instantly put a damper on the mood.

Everyone looked at each other.

Some exchanged glances, understanding each other’s thoughts.

Just above the floor where everyone was dining, on the highest level of Red Sleeve Tavern,

A regal and sophisticated beauty was applying makeup in front of a mirror.

She was the proprietress of Red Sleeve Tavern, indeed a top-tier beauty.

Through the mirror, she glanced at the woman behind her wearing a veil and quietly asked,

“I heard Marquis Jing’an has come here, will you two engage in a duel?”
