Regarding Xu Changfeng, Li Feiyu could only describe him as a very competent Cultivator.
He was ambitious, cunning, cautious in his actions, yet decisive and ruthless!
"This lesson is truly unforgettable!"
Li Feiyu sighed with emotion, then his Face was filled with bitterness.
[Spiritual Root: Gold, Wood, Water, Earth Pseudo Spiritual Root, Fire Medium Grade Spiritual Root]
[Innate Lifespan: Seven years]
[Human Lifespan: Two hundred eighty-two years]
"Burning over two hundred years of Lifespan at once, even a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator doesn't have such a long life. Even a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, consuming this much, is destined to have no hope of reaching the Nascent Soul Realm in this life, or even directly perishing."
"No, Xu Changfeng also died by my hand, so I should have gained his remaining Lifespan. Therefore, what I burned might have reached three hundred years."
"Sigh, never mind. Anyway, it's not my Lifespan, so burning it is fine. As long as I'm still alive."
Li Feiyu quickly came to terms with it.
Then, his eyes glowed green as he looked at Xu Changfeng's corpse; this was the most important thing.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, this is what you promised me before. I took it with good reason!"
In a flash, Xu Changfeng was stripped down to his underwear.
All the equipment on him, including his boots, were now worn by Li Feiyu.
In fact, Xu Changfeng's underwear was also of good quality, not ordinary items, but in the end, Li Feiyu still held onto his bottom line.
"Considering your hard work in bringing me treasures and giving me a profound lesson, I'll save you some Face."
Actually, the main reason was that Li Feiyu found the smell too strong.
Magical Robes were one thing, but underwear was simply unacceptable.
However, if they were top-tier Magical Artifacts, that would be a different story.
Even if they had a smell, they would be fragrant!
After organizing Xu Changfeng's belongings, they were no different from what he had said before; at least in this regard, he was honest.
"Perishing, the path of cultivation broken, then let everything return to dust."
Li Feiyu held a cremation for him, then scattered his ashes into the river.
"Cultivators are suspicious; this place cannot be stayed in."
"Since I've decided to embark on this path, I must be free of worries and settle all worldly Karma."
Li Feiyu sighed slightly and headed towards the Seven Mysteries Sect.
He was not a lone wolf; although the original body knew his Lifespan was limited, he still fell in love with Zhang Xiuer, also a Core Disciple of the Seven Mysteries Sect, and had two sons and one daughter with her.
The original body's Karma was his Karma. Li Feiyu did not intend to meet them but decided to secretly protect them for a period of time.
After exhausting the original body's own Lifespan, he would start anew and officially step into the Cultivation World.
Of course, besides settling worldly Karma, another reason was that his strength was still too low.
He wouldn't blindly believe he had a Protagonist Halo and could thrive in this cruel Cultivation World with only a first-layer Qi Condensation cultivation.
"Seventh layer, at least after reaching the seventh layer of Qi Condensation, I will go to the Spirit Control Sect."
Li Feiyu originally thought that taking a Dao Heart oath in Han Li's name would be harmless to him, but he felt as if something was entanglement around his Dao Heart, tightly bound.
It was fine that his cultivation was low now, but once he had the ability to avenge Xu Changfeng and did not act, the Dao Heart oath would likely activate.
Therefore, going to the Spirit Control Sect in the future was unavoidable.
Although it was a Demonic Sect, factions like the Demonic Path and Righteous Path meant nothing to Li Feiyu; he only acted according to his own heart.
There were hypocrites in the Righteous Path, and the Demonic Path was not without those who wholeheartedly pursued the Great Dao.
As he approached the Seven Mysteries Sect, a special emotion always lingered in Li Feiyu's heart.
Reluctance, nostalgia.
First stop, Li Feiyu arrived at Shenshou Valley—the place where Han Li rose to prominence.
Besides wanting to pay his respects, he mostly wanted to obtain the medical classics left by Mo Juren there.
To quickly improve his cultivation Realm, Medicinal Pills were indispensable.
Li Feiyu had no foundation and could only start from scratch.
Since Han Li left, Shenshou Valley had been abandoned, but the medicinal fields were still there.
People from the Seven Mysteries Sect generally wouldn't come here; their hearts were filled with awe for Han Li, after all, his Immortal Realm methods back then were still vivid in their memories.
In the Seven Mysteries Sect, Zhang Xiuer had a high status and good strength, now also a Deputy Hall Master of a hall.
Therefore, Li Feiyu would only visit every few days, always watching from afar, and leave once he saw her and the children were well.
It must be said that both Li Feiyu and Zhang Xiuer had good looks, and their children were all beautiful and refined.
Another half a year passed in a flash.
With the help of Xu Changfeng's cultivation-enhancing Medicinal Pills, Li Feiyu's cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, now at the third layer of Qi Condensation.
Those Medicinal Pills, after all, had some efficacy even for Cultivators at the eleventh or twelfth layer of Qi Condensation, so for a low-Realm Cultivator like Li Feiyu, the effect was even more remarkable.
During this period, he self-studied medicine, refined medicinal powders, and achieved considerable success.
What surprised him even more was that an unintentional act of his revealed that longevity liquid also had an effect on plants.
One day of human Lifespan could increase the medicinal properties of herbs by a hundred days.
Although it couldn't compare to the medicinal liquid condensed by the palm heaven bottle, it still had great potential.
With a thought, Li Feiyu went to visit Zhang Xiuer and them, only to find Zhang Xiuer arguing incessantly with the Hall Master of her hall.
"Zhang Xiuer, are you determined to leave the Seven Mysteries Sect?"
"Hall Master He, my mind is made up. I am tired of the conflicts of the Jianghu. Now I only want to take the children left by me and Brother Li, retreat from the Jianghu, and raise them well to adulthood!"
Hall Master He knew that Zhang Xiuer had considerable backing in the Seven Mysteries Sect, and it would be difficult to openly harm her.
Ever since he learned of Li Feiyu's death, he had harbored ill intentions towards Zhang Xiuer.
But because he was within the sect, he dared not be too blatant.
"In that case, I won't keep you."
Li Feiyu frowned slightly, "Lustful gaze, filled with greed, simply seeking death!"
They were, after all, the wife and children of Li Feiyu's original body; Li Feiyu would never let go of anyone who dared to covet them.
In his heart, he had already sentenced this Hall Master He to death.
Three days later, Zhang Xiuer took Li Feiyu's children and left by carriage, heading to Qing Shi City in Jing Province.
Half a day later, Hall Master He, with five loyal subordinates, also rode out of the Seven Mysteries Sect's mountain gate.
But just three li away, Li Feiyu stood with his back to them, waiting quietly on a large rock.
As they approached, Li Feiyu unleashed a Saber Qi, startling their horses, and Hall Master He and his men all stopped.
"Who are you, daring to block our Seven Mysteries Sect's people? Are you looking for death?"
"Noisy!" Li Feiyu turned around.
Seeing his true Face, Hall Master He screamed in disbelief as if he had seen a ghost.
"Li Feiyu, how could it be you? Didn't you die?"
"Could it be a feigned death?!"
"What do you want to do here?"
Hall Master He instantly understood his intention, immediately drew his saber and confronted him, and the others followed suit.
"You're chasing my wife, and you ask me what I want to do?"
"Send you all on your way!"
Li Feiyu leaped, his speed astonishing, his True Qi so strong that he knocked Hall Master He to the ground with one strike, and the other Disciples rushed forward to attack.
A lightning-like Saber Light flashed, and in the blink of an eye, a red line appeared on their necks. Blood flowed incessantly, and they eventually fell into a pool of blood.
Hall Master He was scared out of his wits; although he knew Li Feiyu was strong, he never expected him to be this strong.
He flipped onto his horse and galloped away.
Li Feiyu sneered, patted the Storage Pouch at his waist, and a green long sword appeared, floating in the air.
He formed a sword-finger with his hand and lightly shouted, "Go!"
The green long sword shot away rapidly, transforming into a green light.
Hall Master He wondered why there was no movement behind him and looked back to check.
The next moment, the green light directly pierced through his head. Before he could react, his head was separated from his body.
The long sword returned and was put back into the Storage Pouch.
"Five hundred fifty-two years, another two hundred seventy-two years of Lifespan added at once. That's really good."
Li Feiyu flicked his finger, and several fireballs flew out. After incinerating their bodies, he pursued Zhang Xiuer and their trail.
