Chapter 7: Stop!
Although he saw it, Li Xingtian didn't immediately go to take it. Instead, he turned around again, cupped his hands and thanked,
"Thank you, senior."
Chu Xingchen waved his hand with a calm expression.
Li Xingtian slowly got up and walked straight towards the Millennium Bone Jade that he had been longing for since his reincarnation.
He lifted the corner of the table and held the Millennium Bone Jade, which looked like a stone, back in his hand. Li Xingtian felt as if a big stone in his heart had finally been put down.
After cupping his hands to thank Chu Xingchen once again, Li Xingtian quickly left the dilapidated temple with the Millennium Bone Jade.
Li Yingling watched Li Xingtian leave and then also walked into the dilapidated temple. She said in a rather strange tone,
"Master, you just let him go like that?"
Her master, who didn't want to do anything without benefits, was so generous this time and just let that person take the thing and leave.
Hearing Li Yingling's words, Chu Xingchen quickly stopped pretending to be an aloof superior. "You practice by yourself at home first. I'll go out for a while."
Li Yingling showed an expression that a master should act like this. However, before Chu Xingchen left, she still asked curiously,
"Master, is our sect really called the Heavenly Dao Alliance?"
After all, not everything her master said was the truth. It was also possible that he was deceiving that silly boy.
"Yes." Chu Xingchen dropped this word and then turned into a rainbow light and left.
Li Yingling stroked her chin and slowly thought about something.
Then she mobilized her spiritual power, and the wooden sword flew over automatically.LiYingling took it with a backhand.
She'd better practice first. She was almost getting started with this Three Thousand Weak Waters Sword technique.
Li Yingling always felt that after getting started with this difficult-to-practice thing, there would be a qualitative leap.
Li Yingling, who had been called a genius since childhood, was the first time to be so frustrated by this supernatural power.
It had been five whole days! She was still lingering on the edge of getting started.
No wonder her master was eager to take in a new apprentice. Her talent probably didn't look good in her master's eyes.
Li Yingling sighed. She'd better work harder.
——————
Li Xingtian had a clear goal and went straight to the nearest small town.
It would take a quiet and safe space and one day to refine this Millennium Bone Jade.
The previous stupid sect? Only a fool would go back there. Moreover, he couldn't go back. He had secretly slipped out of the sect.
Now he was probably on the wanted list of the sect for absconding.
He would go to the nearby small town, open a room in an inn, and give the waiters more money so that they wouldn't disturb him.
After refining the Millennium Bone Jade, he would quickly head to the Central Region. There were still opportunities that he could obtain there.
However, there was still one thing weighing on his mind.
It was that senior. His words were still lingering in his mind at this moment.
Had he really missed the real opportunity?
He sighed. But the previous sect had already disappointed him thoroughly.
In his last life, hadn't he become a famous prodigy in the Central Region without relying on the sect?
He could definitely do it in this life too. Why did he have to attach himself to the so-called sect?
Having made up his mind, he cleared all distracting thoughts. Since he had decided to do it, he shouldn't regret it.
One day later, after traveling over mountains and rivers, Li Xingtian finally arrived at his destination.
It was within a fairly large town.
After arriving at the inn, Li Xingtian didn't rush to go to the guest room on the second floor to refine the Millennium Bone Jade.
Instead, he ordered a table of food first.
After all, he was only at the second level of Qi Refining. He had eaten up all the dry rations he had brought along the way after traveling over mountains and rivers.
He had been hungry for a long time. However, Li Xingtian hadn't felt this kind of hunger for a long time.
Li Xingtian smiled slightly, feeling an extra sense of reality.
However, he soon couldn't smile anymore.
Because...
He met the disciples of the Qingfeng Sect, the sect he had belonged to before meeting Li Xingtian.
On the second floor of the guest room, several outer disciples of the Qingfeng Sect wearing white robes with cyan edges slowly walked downstairs.
After noticing them out of the corner of his eye, Li Xingtian quickly lowered his head to avoid being seen by them.
At the same time, he cursed inwardly for his bad luck.
Unfortunately, the more he feared something, the more likely it would happen.
One of the Qingfeng Sect disciples swept his eyes across the first floor and saw Li Xingtian with his head down.
He just felt that Li Xingtian looked familiar. Then it seemed that something came to his mind. He quickly reached out and grabbed the sleeve of the senior brother leading the team in front.
Seeing the puzzled look of the senior brother looking over, the disciple quickly gestured with his eyes for the senior brother to look at Li Xingtian.
The senior brother followed his gaze and then narrowed his eyes. He then walked towards Li Xingtian's table with four disciples.
The senior brother walked to the side of Li Xingtian's table, sat down in a swaggering manner, and looked at Li Xingtian with sharp eyes:
"Kid, are you Li Xingtian who's on the wanted list?"
Knowing that he couldn't hide it, Li Xingtian suddenly raised his head and swept his eyes over the five fellow disciples.
There was no Foundation Establishment stage disciple among them. Judging from their auras, three were at the third level of Qi Refining, one was at the fourth level of Qi Refining, and the senior brother leading the team was at the fifth level of Qi Refining.
Although he was only at the second level of Qi Refining, the unique skills still remaining in his mind from his last life were enough to defeat these novice Qi Refining stage disciples in front of him.
He should kill them and then escape. Otherwise, if he was chased all the time, he really might not be able to escape!
The one who strikes first gains the advantage, while the one who strikes later gets beaten!
Li Xingtian chose to take the initiative. He reached out and grabbed the chopsticks beside him, and his spiritual power suddenly burst out within his body.
To capture the thief, capture the king first. He should take down this senior brother leading the team first!
Facing Li Xingtian's sudden outburst.
The senior brother was also well-prepared!
Facing the attacking chopsticks, he just sneered and unleashed the cultivation level of the fifth level of Qi Refining that he had been building up!
The palm that had been ready for a long time suddenly slammed towards Li Xingtian's head!
He was just a useless waste at the second level of Qi Refining! How could he understand the realm of the fifth level of Qi Refining?
The chopsticks and the palm quickly collided!
The result was beyond everyone's expectations!
The chopsticks in Li Xingtian's hand suddenly pierced through the palm. The weak spiritual energy had a strong penetrating power.
After piercing through the palm, Li Xingtian didn't hold back his strength at all and continued to attack straight towards the head of the senior brother leading the team.
Just when he was about to succeed.
A sharp and fierce Golden Core stage aura suddenly burst out.
With just a casual strike, it blasted open the room on the second floor, and the massive spiritual power rushed towards Li Xingtian like a giant dragon.
A warning sign rang loudly in his heart. Li Xingtian turned his head to look and saw an old man with white hair looking at him impassively.
Li Xingtian recognized this person as the Second Elder of the Qingfeng Sect! With a cultivation level in the middle stage of the Golden Core!
He was doomed!
As soon as this thought came to his mind, the massive spiritual power transformed into a crimson dragon had already rushed over and suddenly hit Li Xingtian.
He felt as if his internal organs had been shattered by this strike. Li Xingtian suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Second Elder got up slightly, with an expressionless face: "Deserting the sect and attacking the sect's disciples. According to the rules of the Qingfeng Sect, you should be burned at the stake."
Li Xingtian had no room to struggle. The meager spiritual power within his body had already been scattered by the strike.
The meridians in his body were also severely damaged.
The words of that senior came to his mind again.
The torrent of time is a general trend and a law. All the things he had done against what he had done in his last life were going against the current.
He had been too carried away and forgotten that after disrupting the cause and effect, the direction of all things would be different!
Perhaps the senior had already warned him that wantonly changing history would come at a price!
That offer to accept him as an apprentice might just have been to save his life.
After all, a powerful being who could see through the torrent of time, how could he not have predicted his current situation?
Li Xingtian didn't regret it, but... he was just too unwilling!
"Stop, could you give me a face."
A familiar voice came. Li Xingtian turned his head to look.
He saw Chu Xingchen with a look of pity on his face, holding a cup of clear tea in his hand and taking a sip gently.
