After Meng Yi left.
Li Shuang opened the box, and when she saw what was inside, she was slightly surprised.
There were three items in the box.
On the left was a red pill.
On the right was a transparent amber.
Both items came with detailed descriptions.
"Demonic Blood Pill. Upon consumption, it can unleash energy one major realm higher than one's own strength. However, it only lasts for ten breaths. Afterward, one will enter a three-month period of weakness. Use with extreme caution."
This pill, infused with the essence of demonic blood, would force a human cultivator into a demonic transformation state. Their cultivation would instantly surge by a major realm, but the duration was terrifyingly short.
This was a pill with equally obvious benefits and drawbacks.
The sect had given her this pill as a last resort in desperate situations.
"Flowing Light Amber. At a critical moment, it can instantly generate a transparent amber crystal, enveloping the cultivator. The crystal shield possesses extremely strong defensive capabilities, but one cannot move while inside the crystal."
This was another life-saving artifact.
Finally.
Li Shuang looked at the artifact in the middle.
It was a tiny needle, looking no different from the embroidery needle in Elder Ling's hand.
But... this aura...
It didn't seem to belong to Elder Ling Hua.
Li Shuang recalled Meng Yi's words and dripped a drop of her vital essence blood onto it.
Then, a hint of shock flashed in her eyes.
This artifact had no name, but she could sense that this needle contained world-destroying energy.
This needle could only be used once, and Li Shuang didn't know its exact power, but its effect would definitely be terrifying. This needle was undoubtedly the most powerful of the three treasures.
Li Shuang looked at these three items, falling silent for a moment.
She was going to participate in the Soul Golden Altar.
The sect had actually given her three artifacts at once.
Compared to the other five major sects, the Sword Sect's foundation was not actually very deep. This time, to be able to produce three such artifacts, it was already the best they could find under the premise that she could use them.
The sect... truly had high hopes for her.
Li Shuang put away the three items, but she did not immediately return to Myriad Law City.
She sat down quietly, controlling her breathing rhythm, allowing her mind to completely calm down.
Then.
She re-entered Myriad Law City without hesitation.
There were less than ten days until the opening of the Soul Golden Altar.
In these ten days, she still had some things to do.
In Myriad Law City.
"That Li, is she really not dead?" Patriarch Xuanwei's expression changed, showing a hint of joy.
She had originally thought that the Supreme Ice Spirit Root had left her, but unexpectedly, after a twist of fate, this Li was still alive.
Although she couldn't figure out how Li managed to stay in the Soul Prison for two whole years.
But no matter what, once the person was in her hands, everything would naturally become clear.
"Good, good, good. Have you sent her a message?" Patriarch Xuanwei stared at the man.
The man quickly nodded: "How dare this disciple be negligent when Elder values her so much? I have already informed her that Elder intends to take her as a true disciple! When she sees it, she will surely be overjoyed!"
Patriarch Xuanwei nodded, a hint of greed flashing in her eyes.
This Supreme Ice Spirit Root rightfully belonged to her.
Only two years had passed, and she still had plenty of time to strip the spirit root!
By then, she would be the peerless genius with the Supreme Spirit Root!
"Help me accomplish this, and you will be rewarded," Patriarch Xuanwei said slowly, "It's not good for me to show my face in this matter. Otherwise, it would seem too exaggerated. Do you understand?"
If a Tribulation Transcending stage powerhouse was too proactive, it would instead arouse suspicion.
The man quickly said: "How could such a small matter require the Patriarch to show her face? Patriarch, rest assured, it won't be long before Li will proactively come to acknowledge you as her master."
Patriarch Xuanwei nodded in satisfaction: "Notify me immediately if there's any news."
As the man was responding, he suddenly showed a joyful expression: "Patriarch, Li is back! She even sent a message!"
Patriarch Xuanwei had cultivated for many years and should have been able to hide her emotions, but this matter concerned the Supreme Spirit Root, and her breathing suddenly became heavy: "Did she agree?"
"With the Patriarch's status, how could she refuse?" The man smiled and glanced at it, then his expression changed slightly.
Patriarch Xuanwei's face instantly darkened: "Speak."
Under the powerful pressure, the man trembled all over and stammered: "Patriarch, she... she... she refused."
Patriarch Xuanwei's pupils suddenly constricted: "If she agrees, she can become a true disciple of a Tribulation Transcending stage powerhouse! Did you make that clear?"
The man said with a bitter face: "It was made perfectly clear."
Patriarch Xuanwei's face immediately turned cold: "Then why did she..."
"Patriarch! There's news again!" the man said joyfully.
"Oh?" Patriarch Xuanwei looked expectant. Could it be that Li had changed her mind again?
She wanted to scheme for Li's Supreme Ice Spirit Root, but this matter was not suitable for publicity.
Taking Li as a disciple and plotting in secret was the simplest method.
Otherwise.
She didn't know Li's true identity, and if Li were to stay in Myriad Law City for the next year without going out, she would have no way to deal with her.
"No," the man glanced and quickly said, "Patriarch, it's the guardian of the Great Dao Mountain. He sent a message."
"Li! She is currently challenging the Sixth Great Dao Mountain! The guardians of the three secret realms always love to watch a good show, so he must have sent this news to all the sects' stationed personnel in Myriad Law City!" The man's voice carried a hint of shock.
The Sixth Great Dao Mountain!
Among so many geniuses, only Youlan, at an age of less than a hundred, had conquered this mountain.
Now, Li was also going to challenge this mountain.
Patriarch Xuanwei's voice turned slightly cold: "Let's go! Let's take a look."
The Sixth Great Dao Mountain was extraordinary!
If one could pass this mountain, they would basically be guaranteed to reach the Integration stage.
What if you add the prefix of being under 35 years old?
That would truly be astonishing.
By then...
It was likely that truly powerful individuals would notice Li!
If Li truly gained another backer, how could she still scheme for her Supreme Spirit Root?
Patriarch Xuanwei was a little anxious. She concealed her aura and immediately headed to the Great Dao Mountain.
At the foot of the Great Dao Mountain, many onlookers had already gathered.
"Have you all heard? That Li's cultivation has skyrocketed from the Golden Core stage two years ago to the Soul Transformation stage!"
"Two years! Golden Core to Soul Transformation! What kind of immortal pill did she take?"
"With such a rapid increase in cultivation, her spiritual energy must be unstable! This Li is a bit too eager. Although her cultivation has improved, it might damage her foundation."
"These are not the main points. What I'm curious about is whether she can pass the Sixth Mountain? If she passes this mountain, her comprehension of the Great Dao will probably be on par with Youlan. And she's still so young... Doesn't that mean her talent in this aspect surpasses Youlan's?"
"Surpass Youlan? How dare you say such a thing! Two years ago, she challenged the Sixth Mountain once, and that time, she was teleported out when she only reached halfway up the mountain. It's only been two years, how much progress could she have made?"
