Suddenly, Junior Sister Mu Xi's voice came: "Senior Brother, quickly open the door and let me in, otherwise I'm going to attack your formation! I've already reached the peak of the tenth level of Qi training and am preparing to build my foundation. If you don't come out, have you encountered a bottleneck? Have you only reached the fourth level now? Haha, you're too embarrassed to see me!"
Li Chengfeng remained unmoved and continued to focus on his research.
Seeing this, Junior Sister Mu Xi couldn't help but raise her voice: "Li Chengfeng, you bastard of a senior brother, if you don't come out, I'm really going to attack your formation! Master is here too, don't you want to see him?"
Li Chengfeng swept his divine sense and discovered that Junior Sister and Master Xiao Mowen had indeed arrived together.
He realized that they might be here for the foundation building matter. Although he had wanted to build his foundation for a long time, he couldn't appear too eager and needed to be steady.
So he tidied himself up, then slowly opened the cave entrance and walked out.
He bowed to his master and said, "Disciple greets Master."
Xiao Mowen smiled slightly and said, "You brat still knows I'm your master. I taught you, and you haven't returned once in the seven months you've been here to see your master? Do you want to change your allegiance and become my senior brother's disciple?"
"How could that be, Master? You'll always be my master. I've just been thinking about how to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage recently," Li Chengfeng hurriedly explained.
Xiao Mowen was a little surprised after hearing this and said, "Does that require you to think? Don't I have enough cultivation insights for you to comprehend?
That's just how you are, kid. Although you're steady when things happen, you like to get caught up in details and want to do everything yourself."
She carefully examined Li Chengfeng and found that his foundation was solid and had reached the peak of the tenth level of Qi training.
She said in disbelief, "You cultivated the Mad Demon Battle Skill, why haven't you shown signs of aging? And your face isn't distorted either?"
Li Chengfeng smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Master, and thank you for your macro guidance.
I cultivated the Mad Demon Battle Skill smoothly and didn't encounter any sequelae.
It seems to be tailor-made for me and complements my Yin-Yang Demon Body. So I didn't feel anything was wrong."
Xiao Mowen was stunned when he heard this. He said, "That's impossible. I've also deduced this technique many times, and the reason it hasn't been widely spread is because the cultivation process will cause the side effects of aging and facial distortion. Looking at you now, you're completely unaffected by such restrictions. Could it be that the old geezer has made some new discoveries again?"
Thinking of this, Xiao Mowen immediately roared, "Senior Brother, get out here now! You've taught my disciple so well, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
The door of the cave next door slowly opened, and Ding Wuyan walked out looking radiant.
He had already shed his old and decrepit appearance and turned into a handsome middle-aged man. Although he couldn't compare to Li Chengfeng's handsomeness, he still had his own charm.
He said with a smile, "Junior Sister, what do you think of me? I've completely solved the drawbacks of cultivating the Mad Demon Battle Skill and even touched on a little bit of the threshold of the Transformation God stage.
I almost broke through and reached the Half-Step Transformation God stage, hahaha!"
His laughter was extremely arrogant and bold.
Xiao Mowen said coldly, "Senior Brother, you actually have such ability, I really underestimated you. All these years, I never realized you were so persistent about cultivation techniques. If this Mad Demon Battle Skill didn't affect appearance, I could cultivate it too."
Ding Wuyan shook his head and said, "No, Junior Sister. Don't think that I've recovered my appearance now, but there are still hidden injuries in my body.
Once there's a fight, it may be triggered, so there are still drawbacks. But compared to before, I'm indeed much stronger."
Li Chengfeng's heart stirred, understanding that although Ding Wuyan had solved some problems, he hadn't utilized the power that consumed lifespan like he had, but instead, it was accumulated in his body.
Once it erupted, the degree of danger would be imaginable.
This wasn't a permanent solution, but for Ding Wuyan, it was already very satisfying. At least his appearance wouldn't change, and his strength would only become stronger.
Li Chengfeng's mind moved, thinking that if he used the "Bottom-of-the-Cauldron Dao Source" method to draw out the power within Ding Wuyan's body and integrate it into his sword qi, wouldn't that be even better? But he didn't try it, because it would expose his trump card.
Suddenly, Xiao Mowen's eyes lit up and he asked, "Senior Brother, you didn't have this method before, why did you suddenly think of it now? Was it a flash of inspiration?"
Ding Wuyan patted his chest and said, "My wisdom is beyond your imagination, otherwise, how could I be the senior brother? Haha!"
"You can keep bragging, it won't make you any younger. Don't you know your own worth? This definitely wasn't your idea. If it was your idea, you would have cultivated it and shown it off long ago. Don't I know your personality?" Xiao Mowen scolded unceremoniously.
Xiao Mowen directly scolded him head-on. The two old monsters who had lived for thousands of years arguing like this really made Li Chengfeng and Mu Xi exchange a glance, at a loss.
Li Chengfeng was relatively clever and turned to leave. Mu Xi also followed after hearing a few sentences.
Li Chengfeng thought, appreciating the two大佬's quarrel, if they got too angry, it might affect innocent people, it's better to return to the cave, close the entrance, out of sight, out of mind.
It's best to see less of such ugliness. Just as he was about to close the cave, he was pushed back by a great force.
He saw Mu Xi with her hands on her hips saying, "Senior Brother, you still want to lock me out? No way! I'm here this time to test your strength and see how your cultivation is going and whether your techniques match mine.
If you've been slacking off, your junior sister will have to teach you a good lesson!"
Li Chengfeng shook his head helplessly and said to Mu Xi, "Little Junior Sister, you're being naughty again.
Indeed, I see that your cultivation has recently reached the peak of the tenth level of Qi training. Are you preparing to condense Gang Qi?
Has Master mentioned what kind of Gang Qi to condense and what taboos to pay attention to? We can discuss it together."
Mu Xi smiled and walked in, saying, "Heh, I know that Master has been in seclusion recently and hasn't been paying much attention to you at all.
You've been cultivating in the house by yourself and didn't expect to reach the tenth level of Qi training as well, just like me. Your progress isn't slow either. Senior Brother, how did you cultivate?"
Li Chengfeng smiled slightly and said, "Naturally, I have good talent, there's nothing I can do about it."
"That's natural. In the entire Fengyun Sect, you and I have the best talent, and our future achievements will be the strongest. I believe we can definitely surpass Master," Mu Xi said very confidently!
Li Chengfeng said sternly, "You're wrong to think that way, Junior Sister. There are too many people with good talent in the entire Fengyun Continent.
We must not be arrogant or complacent in the slightest. We must always maintain a cautious heart, understand?"
Mu Xi's face darkened when she heard Li Chengfeng's teachings, and she muttered, "I knew it, you're even more long-winded than Master."
She took out a handful of jelly beans and handed them to Li Chengfeng, saying, "Here, I tricked these from Senior Sister. They're really delicious. These things are not only sweet, but also contain a kind of spiritual power."
Li Chengfeng took the jelly beans and looked at them, then said, "Junior Sister, I think these are different from the candies Senior Sister eats.
Senior Sister's jelly beans are fragrant, sweet, and soft, melting in your mouth, while your jelly beans are crunchy. Although they're fragrant, I always feel like they're for spirit beasts."
As soon as Mu Xi heard this, she immediately became energetic, carefully looked at the jelly beans, then crushed them with a snap, smelled them and said, "Sure enough, there is a pungent smell. Senior Sister tricked me again!
She knew she was teasing me, deliberately letting me steal them. It turns out they are the rations of spirit beasts. It's really infuriating!"
She stamped her feet in anger.
