Chapter 680: Chapter 150: Storm Rises in the Northern Territory, Lanling Meets the Martial Saint

On the mountain top, Shi Caiming retracted his hand from Li Fei’s Dantian.

“The consciousness of the eighth-grade Heavenly Water Blue Soul Beast has completely integrated into the Heavenly Water Soul Bone. If I attempt to erase its consciousness, the Heavenly Water Soul Bone might go completely berserk and damage your Tao Foundation, so I only sealed its consciousness and halted the continuous absorption of essence, energy, and spirit from you.”

Shi Caiming said to Li Fei, “However, part of the Heavenly Water Soul Bone has already integrated into your Tao Foundation, and it’s impossible to stop it from absorbing energy from your body unless you sever the Tao Foundation’s external absorption.”

The Implant, even after reaching the Qi Change Stage, still needs to continuously absorb energy, which the human body provides.

Therefore, even if not in battle, Martial Artists need to consume elixirs or special food that provide energy to sustain the Implant’s survival within the body.

This situation will persist until the Tao Foundation is fully built, the Five Elements form their own cycle, and can absorb the Five Elements Qi from the outside world.

This means, supply is crucial for all Martial Artists below the Martial Arts Master level.

The Heavenly Water Soul Bone within Li Fei has partially integrated into his Tao Foundation, so while the Tao Foundation absorbs energy, this portion of the Heavenly Water Soul Bone follows suit.

If the energy supply is cut off, the other four Implants within Li Fei will perish before the Heavenly Water Soul Bone does.

Thus, Shi Caiming only sealed the portion of the Heavenly Water Soul Bone not yet merged with Li Fei’s Tao Foundation, ensuring Li Fei isn’t continually drained of essence, energy, and spirit. Additionally, he sealed the consciousness of the eighth-grade Heavenly Water Blue Soul Beast, preventing it from awakening again.

Now, at least Li Fei has no worries and can focus solely on resolving issues of his Tao Foundation.

“Thank you, Headmaster.”

Li Fei bowed to Shi Caiming in gratitude.

“Go to Lanling City then.”

Shi Caiming said to Li Fei, “I will write a confidential letter to His Majesty, informing him of your issue. Given His Majesty’s regard for you, he will spare no effort to help you solve it. Lanling City has Martial Saints and True Monarchs. The problems I cannot solve do not mean they can’t either.”

Li Fei looked at him: “No need for the confidential letter, I will speak to the Emperor myself.”

He wasn’t one to force himself unnecessarily.

Though he didn’t want his issue known to outsiders, since Shi Caiming couldn’t solve it, he had no choice but to seek help from others.

Fortunate enough, his favor with the Emperor was strong now, surely the Emperor would be willing to pay the price to assist him.

“Hmm, it’s good for you to speak yourself.”

Shi Caiming nodded, looking at Li Fei, somewhat emotional.

This young man before him was already a towering tree himself, not needing protection everywhere.

“I’ll have Qin Zhen accompany you to Lanling City.”

Shi Caiming continued.

The Fengyun Leaderboard permanently lists Li Fei among the top ranks, and the entire World acknowledges Li Fei as the Ancient and Modern First Dao Foundation Stage, with combat power comparable to a Martial Arts Master!

But today’s Li Fei, apart from being a Martial Arts Master, no longer possesses the combat power of the Tao Foundation Stage Peak.

In this situation, Shi Caiming naturally worries about letting Li Fei go to Lanling City alone.

After all, if New Heaven Association can send a Martial Arts Master to kill, they could very well send a second one.

Li Fei nodded, accepting this goodwill.

Although Qin Zhen accompanying him might reveal some issues, it’s better than truly being intercepted and killed.

Being assassinated and dying in such a state would be too frustrating.

“Set off tomorrow then.”

Shi Caiming said to Li Fei.

Li Fei thanked him, bid farewell, and prepared to leave.

“Xiao Fei.”

Shi Caiming suddenly called out to him.

“Headmaster?”

Li Fei turned around.

“Have you considered what you’ll do if Lanling City can’t resolve your issue?”

Shi Caiming asked with a serious expression.

While he said the problems he couldn’t solve didn’t mean the Martial Saints and True Monarchs couldn’t,

he also knew very well that some problems couldn’t be solved just by having enough strength.

The Martial Saints and True Monarchs could easily kill thousands, but sometimes they couldn’t even save the life of a dying person.

So he wanted Li Fei to be mentally prepared in advance, to prevent potential issues with his Heart Realm.

If the Tao Foundation is gone, it can be rebuilt; but if the Heart Realm is destroyed, the person is completely ruined!

Li Fei understood Shi Caiming’s meaning, and a confident smile appeared on his face:

“Headmaster, rest assured, even if Lanling City can’t solve my issue, at worst, I’ll destroy the Tao Foundation and rebuild it!”

He took less than two years to transform from an ordinary person into the Ancient and Modern First Dao Foundation Stage.

As long as the Myriad Blood Pearl is still within him, even if starting anew, he’s full of confidence!

Hearing his words, Shi Caiming also smiled:

“Good, as long as you have that spirit, no matter the outcome, Wuda will always keep its doors open for you!”

Li Fei bowed deeply to Shi Caiming and turned to leave.

…

Under the night sky, Li Fei and Li Tianyu were having hot pot in the dormitory.

With the departure scheduled for tomorrow, Li Fei invited Li Tianyu over for dinner in his dormitory tonight.

“Chen’s Delivery has been renamed Feixin Delivery, and the delivery company has formally become part of Feixin Trading Company.”

“Now Feixin Delivery has started operating in Datong Prefecture City. You specifically instructed not to use your name, and Chen Gou indeed didn’t make special promotions, but besides collaborating with the Government, he also teamed up with Wuda, now many students at Wuda have started ordering delivery, Chen Gou truly lives up to his name.”

“Qingyuan City Management Company has also started operating in Datong Prefecture City, with help from Green-faced Manor promoting it, many neighborhoods have already been brought under management.”

“Your Marquis Mansion hasn’t been built yet, but now dozens of people have been recruited. Some inspectors who retired from the Inspection Bureau have become your household soldiers, with daily training monitored by my dad, you don’t need to worry.”
