The Golden Enchanting Fox's nature is inherently lustful; once the veneer is pierced, its true nature is fully revealed, passionate like fire. Its wildness makes even someone as experienced as Li Jizhou, who has weathered numerous storms across three lifetimes, secretly marvel. It seems to naturally possess countless positions.
Moreover, its fluffy tail naturally serves as a functional prop.
As for Cyan Dome, aloof and introverted, though passive, it brings an invisible urge to conquer, especially with its pink breaths and closed eyes, creating a stark contrast.
Additionally, its pair of crystal-clear jade feet, delicate and refined, truly tempts Li Jizhou.
What surprised Li Jizhou most, however, was the Sable.
Usually timid and cautious, her usual hesitations melted away once the barrier was broken. Even more clingy and adorable, her long purple ears folded down, and her small furry spiked tongue... devotedly played its part.
It took seven days to complete a round of Dual Cultivation Secret Technique.
As expected, no bloodline divine abilities were easily drawn.
But Li Jizhou had anticipated this and was not discouraged, meditating and recuperating for half a month before starting a new cycle.
Thus, three months passed in a blur.
This day, Liu Hongling, whose expression had grown somewhat numb, finally showed a look of relief.
Li Jizhou finally left the cave.
She truly had to admire Li Jizhou's capabilities in this aspect.
Of course, more so, the talents of the three half-demons in this regard.
"How's it, any relevant information?" Li Jizhou asked Liu Hongling after leaving the cave.
Liu Hongling, who merged with the spirit of the Dharma Realm, could sense all kinds of messages outside the realm.
"Young Master, people from the Shangguan family have appeared occasionally, but they seem to be tracking Ji Yue and Zhao Tianyuan.
No one has come to investigate here in the past three months."
"Hmm, good!" Li Jizhou nodded, it was time to leave.
In these three months here, he couldn't cultivate, and there was no Spiritual Qi, which affected Dual Cultivation. For these three months, he continuously used a large number of Middle Grade Spirit Stones to provide for insufficient Spiritual Qi, consuming them vastly.
Three evenings later, in a quiet Celestial Fragrance Tower box, Li Jizhou suddenly appeared again, and immediately a precise Teleportation Talisman activated, allowing him to instantly return to his rented courtyard.
Just as he appeared in the courtyard, outside Ji Yue's practice room next door, the old woman opened her eyes and suddenly looked towards Li Jizhou's courtyard.
Then she transmitted to Ji Yue, "That gentleman has returned. He used a Teleportation Talisman."
"Why has he returned?" Ji Yue's beautiful eyes slightly moved.
During these three months, she tested Zhao Tianyuan several times and sent messages to the maternal family to investigate Zhao Tianyuan's hidden cards, ultimately excluding the possibility of him having time-reversal abilities, and no information indicated he possessed the Tier Five Golden Cicada Gu.
Therefore, Ji Yue was almost certain that the one who acted three months ago should be Huangshan Taoist.
The ability of Time Law, paired with Tier Five Golden Cicada Gu, and killed one Divinity Transformation and four Late Stage of Nascent Soul clan elders from the Shangguan family, this raised Ji Yue's understanding of Huangshan Taoist several levels higher, even surpassing Cangming Dynasty's third Prince Zhao Tianyuan.
However, when verifying all eligible princes and heirs from Central State's nine major dynasties, no one matched, ultimately narrowing down Huangshan Taoist's true identity to some super-large family descendant within Jiuzhou Dynasty.
For example, a descendant from the Great Xia Dynasty's royal mansion, the original family of Jiuli Dynasty's Empress Dowager, or the offspring of Duke Zhen, individuals on par with the younger generation not holding the Crown Prince title.
"If we've guessed correctly, even if his status is no less than yours, the true exterminator of the Shangguan family's elders won't let it rest. Despite him fleeing afar, returning now suggests he has something he especially cares about here, and this place, being the nearest Immortal City to Fire Domain, his purpose may coincide with yours!" The old crone, wise and astute, immediately saw through Huangshan Taoist's motives.
Ji Yue nodded slowly in affirmation: "With such status, only the opportunity that our family elders divined to greatly aid my Golden Core Dharma Aspect would attract him."
After speaking, Ji Yue frowned slightly: "More masters covet the unknown opportunity at Fire Domain's center; I feel overwhelmed."
"What exactly is the opportunity at Fire Domain's center?" a soft self-question, but it was an impotent shake of the head.
Her Guardian Daoist crone similarly felt overwhelmed, now knowing the hidden forces around Fire Domain, spearheaded by the five major forces in the Eastern Desolation Central Domain, can open domain gates instantly when the opportunity arises, the Near-water platform gets the moon first.
Moreover, Cangming Dynasty's left minister, Hong Guangxiao, has not shown any trace for twenty years, and given Cangming Emperor's coveting of Moon Worship Dynasty's hidden treasure, it's likely he's been quietly lurking.
Among these people, any one is beyond her ability to resist, let alone compete.
Also, Fifth Princess's maternal ancestor, when predicting this item, could counter and severely wound, indicating its high rank and great value.
Should the Immortal Daoist emerging from Central Spiritual Sea also come for this, her young master truly stands no chance.
Yet, in the current world, in predicting, her young master's maternal ancestor is second to none, not first, none claims such, even she couldn't divine the opportunity within it, others might also remain clueless, mostly suspecting its connection with Guanghan Seal.
"Grandmother, do you think Zhao Tianyuan's mention of Potion of Immortality is possible?" Ji Yue again glanced at the old woman.
The old crone chuckled and shook her head: "What do you think? Nearly a hundred thousand years have passed since the last flying Immortal Monarch, about to usher in the next ascension opportunity, such a grand era, numerous old monsters await bitterly, if a Potion of Immortality appears now, countless individuals would crush worlds to seize it.
This is the chance concerning ascension to immortality.
If truly a Potion of Immortality, how could only a few covet it outside the Fire Domain?
Even your father would lead the whole nation to snatch it."
Ji Yue nodded, ceasing this topic, instead gazing towards Li Jizhou's courtyard, pondering how to deeply interact with him.
Simultaneously, ever monitoring Ji Yue and Zhao Tianyuan, Shangguan Qiufeng also sensed the aura in Li Jizhou's rented courtyard.
His expression intensified, three months ago disappearing silently before him, yet now returned using a Teleportation Talisman.
Why return?
Is he entirely disregarding the Shangguan family?
Or is there something more important?
Did he snatch the Frog Demon or not?
Uncertain, he discounted further contemplation, personally keeping a close watch on Li Jizhou.
However, over the next year, Li Jizhou remained secluded, whether Ji Yue visited or Zhao Tianyuan invited, all met with polite refusals.
And this year, Li Jizhou indeed engaged busily, aside from the number being off, certainly could say he was running around busy.
Continuously engaging in Dual Cultivation with the three women, all to successfully extract their Spirit Charm, and bloodline talents.
However, what Li Jizhou didn't anticipate was that the first bloodline talent he extracted was the Sable's crisis sensing.
"In the void, feels like being guided by the Great Dao!" On this day, Li Jizhou finally experienced the Sable's feeling.
Also on this day, a strong crisis sense descended; he immediately halted plans to continue extracting Hong Luan and Cyan Dome's bloodline divine abilities.
In the next moment, above Black Jiao Immortal City, violent spatial fluctuation arrived, followed by an enormous Space Domain Gate almost covering the entire Black Jiao Immortal City.
Numerous figures flew through, led by a young, elegant gentleman, and behind him, the Eastern Desolation's five major forces' ancestors followed respectfully, behind them, surprisingly were acquaintances from previous lives!
