Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the forest, a beautiful petite maiden and a 15-year-old young man in white ran non-stop for half an hour. Both of them were exhausted.

Junior Brother, how’s your wound?”

Liu Yiyi noticed Li Lingitian had stopped running. With a worried expression, she asked softly.

The girl was proud and arrogant. With a cold and expressionless face, she treated everyone with indifference.However, this young man was different, because he had an appealing charisma and aura.

Being only a Tier Nine Warrior who had entered the depths of the Hidden Dragon Isle, it shocked her that he could take an attack that she could not.

No wonder the Sky Cloud Sect dared to grant this genius entrance to the Hidden Dragon Isle. The care she had shown to this young man was, mostly, because he had saved her.

“It’s alright, just a small wound, I just have to tend to it for a bit. How about you, Senior Sister?”

Li Lingtian carefully inspected the wound on his body. The injury sustained from the Destroyer Sword’s shockwave would only require some minor treatment. Although the Ice and Fire Ring was extraordinary, his cultivation level was still too low. Otherwise, he would not have been injured.

It was not by choice that Li Lingtian had to run throughout the journey. His Divine Mindfulness had discovered the existence of a powerhouse on a Warrior King’s level. No matter how confident he was in his abilities, Li Lingtian would not dare pick a fight with a Warrior King at this point.

“Junior Brother Li, have this Green Onyx Fruit as thanks for saving me,”

Liu Yiyi spoke seriously as she brought out a fist-sized fruit and gave it to Li Lingtian. Although he had only saved her because he wanted the Green Onyx Fruit, he was still sincerely grateful.

That was women for you. Whoever pleased them would be seen as a good person.

“Thank you, Senior Sister Liu. This Green Onyx Fruit is very important to me as a Tier Nine Warrior. Otherwise, I wouldn’t take it from you.”

Li Lingtian showed a hint of embarrassment. It was already hard for the Dragon Empire and they needed to be helping each other. He felt slightly guilty for asking for the fruit from Liu Yiyi in exchange for saving her from danger.

“By the way, I made this Spirit Binding Pill. It could be useful to you, Senior Sister. Please take it.”

Upon completing his sentence, Li Lingtian took out a jade bottle from his storage sack. He had made this bottle of pills when he had free time during the competition period in an attempt to improve his Pill Art.

“You’re an Apothecary?”

Liu Yiyi had a shocked expression on her delicate face. It was already shocking to know that this 15-year-old genius had cultivated to the level of a Tier Nine Warrior, she had not expected him to also be an Apothecary.

The gentle yet cold beauty now had the expression of a little girl, her shocked expression made her look even more charming. Coupled with her power from the Misty Pavilion Cultivation, she looked like a goddess from legends.

“Hehe, I was bored so I just practiced it for fun.”

Li Lingtian said as he laughed. Facing this peerless beauty, his heart pounded non-stop.

“A Spirit Binding Pill, not bad,” Liu Yiyi said and shook her head wordlessly. She felt at a loss for words knowing that he had only practiced it because he was bored. Liu Yiyi opened the jade bottle to check if they were actually Spirit Binding Pills. Spirit Binding Pills could only be made by Tier Two Apothecaries and this young man was only 15 years old. No one would believe that he was a Tier Two Apothecary. However, what she saw next made her even more astonished. “What? This is a Superior Grade Two Spirit Binding Pill. You’re a Great Apothecary?”

II

Haha, I’m not sure, I just practiced. I can’t use Spirit Binding Pills easily because I’m a Warrior. When I produced the pills, I was already a Tier Nine Warrior.”

Li Lingtian made a helpless gesture. It could only be blamed on the fact that he had cultivated too quickly.

“Let me see your Vitality Pill. Don’t tell me that it’s also a Superior one.”

Liu Yiyi carefully placed the Spirit Binding Pill into her storage sack. A Superior Spirit Binding Pill was extremely powerful. Although she had owned countless treasures, she had never owned a Superior Spirit Binding Pill.

“Here.”

Li Lingtian took out a jade bottle that only had a few Vitality Pills inside. Since he was already at the Tier Nine peak, using pills would not be beneficial. It would simply be a waste if he consumed it.

He continued walking forward after handing the jade bottle to Liu Yiyi. This place was not safe, he had to find a safe place to heal his wounds and also refine the Green Onyx Fruit.

As a Warrior, the Green Onyx Fruit had endless benefits and could almost boost his Warrior Spirit by a 100 percent. Otherwise, he would not have gone against that Tier Eight Warrior Spirit powerhouse just to obtain it.

“Peerless, it’s a Peerless Vitality Pill!”

Behind him, Liu Yiyi looked at the pill in her hand with a shocked expression. It was a legendary peerless pill. In the Divine Martial Continent, a peerless pill was only spoken of in legends. It was impossible, even for a Spiritual Apothecary, to make a Grade One Peerless Pill.

She never thought that this young man in front of her would have such amazing capabilities. Not only that, his Pill Art was even more astounding. It was impossible for her not to be astonished.

“Junior Brother, please wait.”

Liu Yiyi noticed Li Lingtian had continued walking forward and quickly ran towards Li Lingtian with a smile on her face, bearing a hint of slyness.

She had a smile that could topple a city, another smile from her would topple an entire country!

Within the forest, upon a small hill, Li Lingtian sat in a cave with his eyes closed and knees crossed, using his full power to heal his wounds. Meanwhile, Liu Yiyi also sat down to meditate and rest.

Li Lingtian had originally planned to heal his wounds and cultivate alone, but Liu Yiyi had offered to protect him. Left with no choice, Li Lingtian accepted her offer.

Having this beauty beside him was a blessing to his eyes. However, he could not concentrate since it was a dangerous place.

As the Heaven and Earth Reincarnation circulated, Li Lingtian placed a Great Spirit Pill into his mouth. His injuries from the shockwave quickly healed as the pill started to refine. As expected of the powerful Sacred Healing Medicine, his injuries and True Qi had completely recovered after only an hour.

‘If I don’t use this Green Onyx Fruit now, when else would I use it?’

Li Lingtian thought as he held the Green Onyx Fruit. He then quickly bit into it and finished it with a few bites. It was almost as if he was doing something righteous.

“Pfft.”

Liu Yiyi, who had just finished cultivating, could not hold in her laughter after seeing Li Lingtian. This Junior Brother was hilarious to her.

This young man, at 15 years old, was already a Tier Nine Warrior. He might even be a Grade Four Great Apothecary. She did not expect him to be this amusing. The look on his face when he ate the Green Onyx Fruit was simply hilarious.

“Mmhm.”

Li Lingtian was a bit shocked when he noticed Liu Yiyi was laughing at him. It was only then he realized that he indeed looked quite funny. Though, at the end of the day it was only a Green Onyx Fruit and nothing more.

However, he could not be bothered by Liu Yiyi at this moment. The power of the Green Onyx Fruit was spreading quickly within his body. Its astonishing power and Spiritual Qi was rushing towards his meridians.

As the Heaven and Earth Reincarnation circulated continuously, it turned the Green Onyx Fruit’s power and Spiritual Qi into True Qi. His True Qi had now started to change. It became even more intense, almost as if it had an actual form.

After half an hour, Li Lingtian’s whole body was covered in sweat and he had a pained expression.

“Tier Nine Warrior, break through it!”

Li Lingtian shouted as the True Qi from his entire body rushed towards the Warrior Spirit boundaries. At this moment, the powerful True Qi successfully broke the Warrior Spirit boundaries and his True Qi started to quickly take an actual form.

Strands of True Qi circulated in his Dantian and meridians, which eventually flowed into his Dantian.

The Immemorial Ice Crystal and Fire Dragon’s Heart also received more nourishment. Li Lingtian clearly felt that his connection to the Immemorial Ice Crystal and Fire Dragon’s Heart had gotten stronger.

This meant that as long as he reached a certain cultivation level, he could fully refine the Immemorial Ice Crystal and Fire Dragon’s Heart. When that happens, his cultivation level would increase by leaps and bounds.

A strong essence spread throughout the air as Liu Yiyi showed a surprised expression. Although she knew that the Green Onyx Fruit had a high chance of enabling him to become a Warrior Spirit, she could not believe that Li Lingtian could cultivate this quickly. It only took him half an hour to enter the Warrior Spirit Realm.

“Absorb.”

Li Lingtian tightened both of his fists as the essence in the cave quickly rushed towards him. Eventually, it turned into Essential Qi which entered Li Lingtian’s meridian and flowed into his Dantian.

“Congratulations on reaching the Warrior Spirit Realm, Junior Brother. You have surely become stronger.”

Liu Yiyi looked at Li Lingtian as he opened his eyes. His clear eyes were as bright as the stars in the night sky. He became even more attractive, and Li Yiyi could not help but smile.

“Senior Sister Liu is already a Tier Six Warrior Spirit, while I’ve only just entered the Warrior Spirit Realm,”

Li Lingtian said as he stood up. He felt like his entire body was filled with an explosive power which had him feeling full of confidence. The Warrior Spirit Realm and Warrior Realm were on completely different levels.

Not only had his True Qi become even purer, but it had also increased tremendously. He would be able to master even more skills after some practice.

Now that Li Lingtian was in the Warrior Spirit Realm, he could surely kill Su Tian, who was a Tier Eight Warrior Spirit that specialized in the Divine Sword, without much effort if they were to face each other again. Previously, he had had to use a sneak attack to kill Su Tian.

Last time, Li Lingtian had to descend from the sky as he displayed the Vast Obscure Extermination, relying on its great force to injure Su Tian. Otherwise, he would not have been able to use his Ice Vitality Divine Fist to kill Su Tian.

“I’m older than you. Besides Junior Brother, you were able to kill Su Tian, who was a Tier Eight Warrior Spirit, when you were only a Tier Nine Warrior. Now that you’re in the Warrior Spirit Realm, you don’t need to worry much if you have to go against any strong Warrior Spirits.”

Liu Yiyi showed a rarely seen smile on her petite face, which was usually cold and expressionless. It was a smile that could topple an entire city.

Li Lingtian was shaken by her gentle look. His heart pounded continuously, and he did not dare take another look at Liu Yiyi. For a moment, he felt really awkward and embarrassed. He had been a human for both of his lives, and yet he still felt embarrassed in front of her..
