第九百一十五章 如狼入羊窝

Not long after, Wei Lu and his companions followed the trail to find the two.

However, they never expected that in such a short time, their original pursuers had transformed into hunters themselves.

After breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, Li Qing's combat power almost doubled. Moreover, she was ruthless in her attacks, causing more damage than even Shi Jie from the late Foundation Establishment stage.

These people were merely hired killers; seeing that their mission was hopeless, they immediately decided to retreat. But Wei Lu grew anxious and couldn't help but stop them.

During this brief moment of confrontation, Li Qing seized the precise opportunity to reveal Wei Lu's true identity by attacking him in the shadows.

Wei Lu's face turned pale as he revealed himself. Shi Jie, enraged, trembled with fury for the first time, his eyes filled with murderous intent. With no way out, they were destined to have a tragic end.

Wei Lu made a desperate decision, pledging everything he had to persuade the retreating bandits back into battle. The two sides clashed again, and without holding back, Li Qing and Shi Jie fell into a disadvantageous position.

In this critical moment, Li Qing seemed to break through once more, causing the Yin Wind Valley's extreme阴气to surge. They took advantage of this to escape.

From then on, Li Qing and Shi Jie fought their way back, using combat as a means to train. Their cooperation grew increasingly默契, almost doubling their actual combat power when they attacked together.

Ultimately, relying on the terrain advantages of Yin Wind Valley, they achieved a counter-kill.

Looking at Shi Jie's hateful gaze, Wei Lu opened his mouth but was immediately crushed by Li Qing into dust before he could say anything.

The crisis over, with Li Qing’s help, Shi Jie completed the sect trial and returned to the inner sect together. As for what happened in Yin Wind Valley, although Wei Lu had initiated the plot, they both killed each other out of frustration. To avoid punishment from the sect, Shi Jie reluctantly kept it a secret.

Wei Lu's disappearance as a Foundation Establishment disciple didn't draw much attention; soon, he was forgotten.

Although they were already inseparable, they still needed to be more discreet in public.

Shi Jie returned to the inner sect and reported to his master.

At this time, Shi Jie began to think about how to persuade his master to take Li Qing under his wing. This way, they could see each other often.

Li Qing, meanwhile, hid his identity and quietly came to the market district, using the spirit stones obtained from Wei Lu and others to purchase some elixirs that concealed his true strength.

Half a month later, Shi Jie's master, Huo Jingtong, finally agreed to meet Li Qing after much persuasion. It seemed that Huo Jingtong was still bothered by Li Qing’s transformation into a woman.

However, all these concerns vanished when she saw Li Qing in person.

Li Qing knelt before her and waited for questions. After a long time, Huo Jingtong finally spoke, "Jing'er has already told me everything. You may go."

She didn't immediately give an answer but said it with a faint tone.

Li Qing respectfully bowed and left. But from the persistent spiritual awareness on him, Li Qing knew that things were settled.

Sure enough, seven days later, he received notification from the sect and officially became Huo Jingtong's disciple.

Although the outer sect female cultivators were reluctant to see Li Qing leave, they secretly wished him well. Li Qing promised to visit often.

After a series of parting farewells, Li Qing moved into Moonlight Mountain.

The outer sect female cultivators, filled with longing for Li Qing, redoubled their efforts and broke through many long-standing barriers, joining the inner sect. They could now frequently visit him.

This was left aside for later discussion.

Huo Jingtong's lineage resided on Luyue Peak in Moonlight Mountain, not far from Zhao Senior Sister’s Cold Moon Peak. However, Zhao Ruoxi was still in seclusion, so Li Qing had no intention of visiting her.

There were over a hundred female disciples on Luyue Peak, mostly virgins who had never experienced anything.

Li Qing's arrival here felt like a rat falling into a grain bin. But with great resolve, he resisted the urge to misbehave and instead focused on practicing the true transmission from Huo Jingtong: The Moonlight Hundred Transformations.

This was indeed a top-tier daoist technique, far superior to any other methods Li Qing had previously gathered.

Li Qing repeatedly pondered over it, filled with joy. After trying to practice it, he found even more surprises.

The pure yin body transformed by the Reverse Etiquette Scripture seemed to have an inherent advantage in practicing The Moonlight Hundred Transformations.

After seven days of seclusion, he had reached the early stage of Golden Core, equivalent to his current realm.

Moreover, Li Qing discovered that simultaneously practicing two techniques did not burden him. Instead, they complemented each other, further accelerating his already rapid progress.

For a while, he devoted all his free time to cultivation until both Reverse Etiquette Scripture and The Moonlight Hundred Transformations reached the early stage of Golden Core perfection before stopping.

Finger calculations revealed that only three months had passed. For ordinary cultivators, reaching the Golden Core realm often took years, with some even secluding for over a decade.

For him to go from initial Golden Core to the bottleneck in just three months... it was unheard of!

However, the bottleneck Li Qing felt gave him some reassurance.

"A pure yin body at my current state seems insufficient to continue practicing Reverse Etiquette Scripture."

"More refined yin qi is needed."

Li Qing's eyes sparkled as he thought about the hundreds of beautiful female cultivators on Luyue Peak. They were all excellent resources for his cultivation!

However, this was still the inner sect of the Daoist Sect.

His early Golden Core strength was not enough to allow him to act recklessly. If discovered, it might result in immediate废功and expulsion from the sect.

Therefore, Li Qing decided...

To start directly with his master, Huo Jingtong, a divine cultivator!
