From Family Fisherman to Water Virtue True Immortal-Chapter 240 - 235: True Yang Pill

"An ancient cave mansion with Golden Core inheritance?"

Li Quanqing sat cross-legged in his own cave mansion, listening to the old clan chief slowly narrate, feeling as if he was hearing a fantastical tale.

"Could Quangeng have been deceived by someone..."

He rubbed his brow, feeling a headache coming on.

In the Cultivation World, there were too many instances of counterfeit ancient relics luring cultivators into traps for slaughter.

"It shouldn’t be to the extent where, with our strength, unless a Golden Core is behind it, but how could a respectable Golden Core True Master stoop so low to use such despicable means?"

The old clan chief shook his head, continuing to elaborate, "Didn’t the Sword Sect issue an order to clear out tens of thousands of miles of sea territory and eliminate the remnants of the Situ Family?"

"Although we didn’t find traces of the Situ Family in the end, that girl Zhou Caimei was rather fortunate, discovering this ancient cave mansion in a remote sea area. After returning and consulting the records, she suspected it contained Golden Core Spiritual Items."

Hearing this, Li Quanqing’s gaze grew even more speechless: "So Zhou Caimei was the one who found it. How does she know there are Golden Core Spiritual Items inside?"

"She suspected that the owner of the cave mansion might have been a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivator who secluded himself to break through to Golden Core, so there might be some Core Formation Spiritual Items left, making it worth exploring."

"It sounds even more like a scam now..."

Li Quanqing let out a deep sigh, harboring many feelings of helplessness in his heart.

Seeing the old clan chief’s resolve, it seemed no matter how much he tried to persuade him, it would be futile; he was staking everything on one chance.

"After all, it’s about Core Formation Spiritual Items. Even if there’s one in ten thousand chance it’s real, this old man has to explore it."

"After all... my lifespan is not much, and I will soon pass away. The path ahead is cut off, but your journey, Quanqing, has only just begun..."

"If there is a chance to get Core Formation Spiritual Items to aid in cultivation, you won’t need to venture out and fight for a future like Kunlun did."

Li Zongyao laughed carefreely, very open-minded about his fate.

Even if it really was a trap set by the Sword Sect to weaken the power of the Green Jade Li Family, he accepted it, as his life span was only a mere twenty or so years left.

If he could exert his last bit of heat and vie for the possibility of obtaining a Core Formation Spiritual Item, it would be worth it.

Li Quanqing would be lying if he said he wasn’t moved, but the old clan chief also knew the Incense Fire Divine Dao Cultivation Method, so even if he really encountered an accident.

Even if there was a sliver of the soul left, it could transform into an Incense Fire God and continue to live another life.

"He is after all my great-grandson, now seeking my help. Surely he won’t disregard blood and kinship and cut me off, right?"

These were Li Zongyao’s final words. After speaking, he left, his back hunched, looking somewhat desolate.

Even though he was at Foundation Establishment, he was ultimately old and didn’t have much time left. Clinging to his family affections, he could not bear to refuse his grandson’s earnest pleas.

When Li Quangeng left, the old clan chief also chose to follow him, wishing to explore the cave mansion together.

Li Kunli and Li Quanmo were both worried and wanted to join him, but they were both refused by Li Zongyao.

Perhaps deep down, the old clan chief also thought it was a trap, but driven by the kinship that was thicker than water, he ultimately chose to trust his grandson one more time.

Li Quanqing watched them leave, with the Green Tide Pearl floating behind him, shedding radiant light, almost wrapping his entire body within.

Unknowingly, the Qingyu Cave Heaven became even lonelier.

Two Foundation Establishment cultivators had left, Li Zongzhuo had fallen into a deep slumber to nurture his Divine Soul, and the new generation of Foundation Establishment prospects had yet to grow.

The vast Li Family seemed to flourish, but its foundation was still somewhat lacking, and there was still a long way to go before becoming a Golden Core family. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

"Master, the hour has come, it’s time to feed the fish..."

Beside him, Li Jingui spoke cautiously, interrupting his contemplation.

Li Quanqing came back to his senses, nodded, and took his little apprentice to the embankment of the fish pond where the water roared loudly, and the waves churned. The Green Jade Carps surfaced conscientiously.

Pah! Pah pah!

The Green Jade Carps, as always, were playful in nature. They opened their mouths and spat out crystal-clear Water Arrows, having the time of their lives.

They dared not to attack Li Quanqing, so they targeted Li Jingui instead, attacking this unfamiliar human youngster.

For a moment, the embankment was filled with dense Water Arrows that obscured the sky, creating a spectacular scene with surging water vapor.

Li Quanqing didn’t take action himself but watched with interest, allowing the youngster to handle the situation on his own.

"Ha!"

Li Jingui’s little face turned serious, and despite his young age, he exuded an extremely composed demeanor.

He activated his light body technique and circulated his Mana, moving agilely around, and cast sword energies as thin as fingers with a swing of his hand, bursting forth with abandon.

The Sword Qi crisscrossed the sky, easily slicing through the Water Arrows, turning them into drops of water that rained down, glinting like gems.

In the end, not only was Li Jingui unharmed, but he also managed to fend off all the attacks, ending up with only his sleeves drenched, looking somewhat bedraggled.

"Not bad, you’ve improved a lot compared to before. When you can reach the point where not a drop sticks to you, I will teach you a set of Body Refining Techniques,"

Li Quanqing was pleased with what he saw. After all, this was the son of an old friend, and he was very committed to nurturing him.

"Thank you, Uncle Quanqing!"

Joy instantly spread across Li Jingui’s little face. Before he could delight in the compliment, a Golden Pattern Jade Carp surfaced and shot a Water Arrow from its mouth.

This Golden Pattern Variant, with the cultivation of Qi Refining Seventh Layer, was naturally not something Li Jingui could block.

Even though he quickly pulled out a small shield and reacted with impressive speed, he was still struck and knocked flying, landing with a thud and sprawling over in an embarrassed pose.

Seeing this, the Golden Pattern Jade Carp immediately opened its mouth wide in a delighted expression, as if it were grinning in mockery.

Li Jingui’s cheeks puffed up with anger, turning red and adorable, looking as cute as an apple with his naive appearance.

The little guy was indignant and decided he would ask his father to make a delicious Spirit Fish soup that evening.

Li Quanqing’s large hand reached out, grabbed the Jade Carp, and crushed the Light Group; instantaneously, a surge of Spiritual Energy roiled through his meridians.

He slowly refined it, and his aura boiled over, visibly growing by a significant measure.

"Three hundred and fifty drops of Liquid Magic Power..."

Li Quanqing exhaled a breath of turbid air, sensing the feeling of fullness at his Dantian.

Assisted by both the Heavenly One Spirit Liquid and the Spiritual Energy Group, he was finally about to reach the Great Perfection Realm, reaching the limit and glimpsing the path to the Golden Core Dao.

After feeding the fish, Li Quanqing entered the Hanhai Bowl, made it a routine to feed all the Spiritual Beasts, and meanwhile checked their cultivation progress.

Finally, Li Quanqing went to Red Dragon Mountain and checked the status of the Dragon Flame Eagle.

This fellow was still the same, devouring a large amount of Heavenly Fire Flood Dragon carcasses to refine Flame Essence Qi, not far from breaking through to Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

Unexpectedly, perhaps influenced by the Top Grade Fire Spirit Stones, the Yang Flame Fishes in the Fire Spirit Pond at the base of Red Dragon Mountain had broken through.
