Chapter 95: Chapter 83: Deterring the World (3)

This was an energy circulation path Li Chang’an had created himself to prevent his breakthrough into the Grandmaster Realm. His newly opened ridians had to withstand a terrifying flow of energy, and the slightest misstep could cripple him.

However, he wasn’t particularly concerned about it.

’If I get crippled, so be it. My gains in this world have already far surpassed my initial expectations anyway. Even if I returned to the Rebirth World right now, I wouldn’t have many regrets.’

But if he succeeded, he would beco the strongest Great Grandmaster in history, in a way no one could possibly imagine!

...

As his energy circulated cycle after cycle through the newly opened ridians, the excess energy overflowing from Li Chang’an’s body was finally brought under control.

anwhile, as the path cleared, Li Chang’an’s aura climbed steadily.

After an unknown amount of ti, Li Chang’an’s aura finally reached an unprecedented peak.

Li Chang’an closed his eyes, carefully sensing his current state. He was startled to find that his entire being seed to have rged with heaven and earth, yet at the sa ti, it felt as if he stood apart from them.

At that mont, he found himself in a profound and mysterious state. He could be called a Great Grandmaster, yet one could also say he was still within the domain of a Grandmaster.

He had grasped the authority of a Great Grandmaster, but he had not yet completely forged his own Dao Foundation!

Li Chang’an was very satisfied as he sensed his current, incredibly powerful state. ’Three Divine Objects left. It’s ti to visit the Four Major Sects and settle the score!’

That very day, he left the Imperial Palace to prepare for his final push.

The Xuann Taoist Sect was the closest of the Four Great Upper Sects to Great Derivation. It was located deep within a remote mountain range, nestled in an ancient forest, and of all the sects, it had the best relationship with Great Derivation.

However, despite this, the Taoist Sect’s patriarch had followed the Celestial Sect and the Earth Sect to the Great Derivation capital of Kyoto two years ago.

And so, Li Chang’an ca. He showed no courtesy, his voice booming like thunder. "Old Daoist! I am Li Chang’an, Crown Prince of Great Derivation, and I have co today to demand one Qingxue Lotus!"

At the sound of his thunderous voice, the entire Taoist Sect, which lay concealed amidst the mountains and rivers, trembled violently.

An old Daoist with a salt-and-pepper beard and the ethereal air of a sage stepped forward.

He stared at Li Chang’an for a long ti before his expression soured. "Crown Prince of Great Derivation, you have already beco a Great Grandmaster. What use could you have for a Divine Object?"

’And here we were, just plotting whether we should join forces to eliminate him before he could break through to the Great Grandmaster Realm!’

’Who would have thought that after such a short ti, the Crown Prince of Great Derivation would reappear, having already reached the Great Grandmaster Realm...?’

’This damn breakthrough speed... he’s not even human!’

Li Chang’an looked at the grim-faced old Daoist and said coolly, "You don’t need to concern yourself with what I want the Divine Object for. Just tell : are you giving it to

or not?"

"If you don’t, I’ll take it myself."

His attitude was nothing short of brazen.

Yet the old Daoist didn’t fly into a humiliated rage. He could clearly feel the terrifying aura emanating from Li Chang’an—a power so imnse that even a slight sense of it was enough to make one tremble.

At that mont, the old Daoist understood. As long as Li Chang’an remained alive, the Four Great Sects could never hope to be a match for Great Derivation.

He took several deep breaths, his eyes fixed on Li Chang’an, sizing him up again and again. Finally, he said, "Please wait a mont."

’Now that Li Chang’an has broken through to beco a Great Grandmaster, the Four Great Upper Sects can no longer effectively restrain him.’

’Therefore, rather than making an enemy of him, it’s better to yield decisively.’

’After all, he had no desire to offend a Great Grandmaster who was rely thirteen or fourteen years old!’

’The entire Taoist Sect would be plagued by nightmares.’

Coupled with what he had heard of Li Chang’an’s usual thods, he imdiately made the wisest possible choice.

Before long, the old Daoist returned with an exquisitely beautiful lotus that resembled a carving of pure white jade. He handed it to Li Chang’an and said, "I was deeply offensive the other day. Please accept this Qingxue Lotus as my apology for my recent actions."

’The Qingxue Lotus was precious, but compared to the survival of the Xuann Taoist Sect’s lineage, it was nothing.’

Upon receiving the lotus, the killing intent radiating from Li Chang’an subsided considerably.

Looking at the old Daoist before him, who had crane-white hair but a youthful face, Li Chang’an spoke with renewed interest. "I hear your Taoist Sect possesses a Divine Skill that can extend one’s lifespan. I am quite interested in it. As it happens, I have so decent Cultivation Techniques myself. Why don’t we make an exchange?"
