Chapter 49: You had no choice and got shown off again (5)
“Which one of the three saintesses of the Demon Palace did you meet?” On the slate, a few lines of text appeared.
Li Su looked at the Sect Leader. He and the Sect Leader returned to the ground, and Li Su activated the stone slab with his own blood. The Sect Leader was going to use her blood but was stopped by Li Su. It was okay for a man to bleed a little.
The Sect Leader planned to pretend to be a monk with the cultivator Bai and said that while looking for the blood, he met a saint from the Heavenly Demon Palace. The other party discovered the holy order, sent people to hunt him down, and escaped after a narrow escape.
In this way, some information about the saintess and holy order of the Heavenly Demon Palace could be obtained.
“Li Su, what do you think should be the answer?” Asked the Sect Leader.
Li Su thought for a while and began to operate on the slate.
“I don’t know him. He’s wearing black clothes.”
Li Su was talking nonsense.
The demon cultivator this time was not as cooperative as the Bai clan cultivator. The people from the Flying Immortal Sect had to use various methods, such as provocation, to extract some information from him. But more, this guy would not say anything, even if he was killed.
As for the reason, the head of the sect knew a thing or two. The magic cultivator had no taboos and even killed his own people when he became ruthless.
Therefore, to control the magic cultivators, some larger magic sects would leave some means in the souls of some disciples. If this magic cultivator leaked too many secrets, it might be worse than death.
The other party was also extraordinarily arrogant, as if as soon as the saintess of the Heavenly Demon Palace arrived, the Flying Immortal Sect would be finished.
The leader didn’t know much about the Heavenly Demon Palace. He only knew a general idea. Therefore, she made this trip. The Sect Leader nodded when she saw the words Li Su had said.
Li Su withdrew his spiritual power, and the lines dimmed.
“After a while, writing appeared on the slate again.”
Li Su replied, “Yes.”
But the next sentence on the slate changed the Sect Leader’s facial expressions.
“He saw through!”
Sect Leader said.
The other party saw that the person using the stone slab was not a monk named Bai! These demon cultivators were indeed extremely cunning, and they found something abnormal in just a few words.
“It should be a matter of blood,” said Li Su confidently, looking at the stone slab. It was very likely that cultivator Bai activated the slate with blood. The other party could detect the difference if he used blood to activate it with Li Su.
“Don’t worry, Sect Leader, leave it to me,” said Li Su confidently.
Although the other party saw through, Li Su remained calm. He operated quickly.
“That’s right, cultivator Bai has been killed by me. Now, you can only rely on me to get out of trouble. You have no choice!” Li Su manipulated several words in succession.
“If you don’t cooperate, I will completely seal off the underground passage, and no one will find this place.”
“How much longer do you have to live? A few hundred years? A thousand years? Even if it’s ten thousand years, it’s useless. You will be trapped here to die,” he said.
After Li Su made this sentence, he waited for it to dim for more than ten seconds and then started to operate again.
“What do you want to know?” appeared on the slate. Li Su still didn’t answer. He also packed the stone slabs into a storage bag and then transported it a mile away with a Flying Immortal Sword.
“Sect Leader, let’s wait for a few days,” Li Su said. He was not in a hurry at all. Let the other party be anxious first and let him know that his life was in Li Su’s hands.
“Good,” said the Sect Leader, sitting cross-legged on a white cushion. “Li Su, I haven’t taught you much in these years. If you have any doubts about your cultivation these days, please ask me.”
“Sect Leader, I happen to have some questions~” Li Su replied, taking advantage of the opportunity.
All of a sudden, he posed some queries of his own. These inquiries, however, didn’t pertain to spiritual cultivation. He wasn’t concerned about his own progress. Instead, they revolved around certain techniques and distinct combat methods in immortal cultivation.
The cultivation base of an immortal cultivator served as the foundation, and achieving a high cultivation base was crucial. Conversely, techniques represented specialised means of combat, such as magic weapons, spells, and talismans, all contributing to the arsenal of a cultivator in battles.
Li Su’s system consistently rewarded him for cultivation, recognising its importance. A Golden Core stage cultivator could effortlessly dominate a Foundation Establishment stage monk without relying on magical tools or techniques.
Nevertheless, potent techniques undeniably enhanced combat prowess. Although the system didn’t incentivise it, Li Su took the initiative to learn some techniques. Despite his limited spiritual roots, his commendable comprehension skills facilitated swift learning.
Yet, advanced techniques raised many questions, prompting Li Su to spend an entire day seeking answers. The Sect Leader patiently elucidated these intricacies throughout the day.
“Thank you, Sect Leader,” Li Su expressed gratitude.
“Li Su, advancing your cultivation is paramount. Do you have any uncertainties about the cultivation process?” inquired the Sect Leader.
“No need to worry about my cultivation, Sect Leader. Let me share a secret with you,” Li Su replied mysteriously, drawing closer to the Sect Leader.
The Sect Leader emitted a captivating fragrance, a subtle scent that could only be discerned up close. It was Li Su’s first encounter with such a fragrance.
“What secret do you wish to share, Li Su?” the Sect Leader inquired curiously as Li Su leaned in.
” Sect Leader, take a whiff. I’ve reached the third level of the Golden Core stage,” Li Su revealed, exuding confidence.
The Sect Leader turned, her bright eyes fixed on Li Su. Li Su released his aura, emphasising, “I’m at the third level of the Golden Core stage, Sect Leader.”
