Chapter 559 -565: Intercepting the Convoy
Apart from these two Spirit Beast Eggs, there were also several precious fourth-tier Spiritual Objects.
“See if there is anything you can use,” Jiang Fengwu said.
Perhaps because Li Zhirui had always been the one giving, she was now intent on compensating him.
“Sure,” Li Zhirui didn’t stand on ceremony and selected three Spiritual Objects with a Water-Wood Attribute to merge into his Life-bound Magic Treasure, Thousand Spirits, when he had the chance.
Jiang Fengwu took out the Yin-Yang Attribute Spiritual Objects and set them aside specially, considering them as gifts for her son, Li Chengsheng, and her daughter, Li Chengshuo.
“It’s been more than a decade, why hasn’t Shuo returned?”
Even if the Life Token was intact, knowing that she had been tempered by the outside world for so many years, Jiang Fengwu couldn’t help but worry.
“Don’t you know Shuo’s temperament? She is the most stubborn. She said she would not come back until she breaks through to the Golden Core Realm, so she definitely won’t return early.”
But breaking through to the Golden Core Realm is not so easy, is it? Not to mention more than a decade; it’s not impossible even for several decades.
Of course, these words couldn’t be said in front of Jiang Fengwu.
However, this time, Li Zhirui had guessed wrong!
Li Chengshuo successfully broke through to the Golden Core in the third year after being transported to the Central Region, which was the eighth year of Jiang Fengwu’s retreat, but many things happened afterward, which was why she did not return until now.

Central Region.
As the tribulation clouds in the sky dissipated, the onlookers in the distance knew that the person had successfully transcended the Tribulation.
For a time, everyone had different expressions; some were envious, others jealous, and all human emotions were present.
Many Golden Core Cultivators, hoping to befriend her, waited for Li Chengshuo to show up to greet her, but did not expect she would go straight to solidifying her realm, making it quite awkward for the crowd who then dispersed from the area. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Li Chengshuo, on the other hand, was thinking that after she stabilised her realm, she would immediately start her journey home to hand over the mysterious Black Stone to her father, Li Zhirui, for identification.
Several months later.
Li Chengshuo left the Immortal City silently, making sure several times she was not being followed before she went to dig up the Black Stone and steered her Spirit Boat toward the Eastern Region.
But her journey was fraught with hardship!
In the Cultivation World’s most prosperous Central Region, the number of Golden Core Cultivators was not rare; in fact, they could be seen everywhere.
Therefore, a freshly advanced Golden Core Cultivator like Li Chengshuo, traveling alone, was very easy to attract attention.
At first, Li Chengshuo suffered quite a few setbacks. She was seriously injured several times and almost had to activate her Soul Dividing Jade Slip.
Later, she had become smarter. She disguised herself as an ordinary-looking Foundation Establishment Cultivator, and even her Spirit Boat was replaced with the most common type of Standard Magical Weapon, making her seem like a Loose Cultivator.
With this change, the number of Cultivators targeting her had indeed decreased significantly.
Golden Core Cultivators disdained to take action against Li Chengshuo, who looked like a ‘poor devil’, and Foundation Establishment Cultivators were no match for her, making her travel seem calm and uneventful.
Stopping and going for over a year, she finally arrived at the border of the continent.
It was fortunate that the place where Li Chengshuo was teleported was close to the Eastern Region; otherwise, it would have taken her several years just to travel.
And the road ahead was not entirely safe.
Because the border areas were all under the control of Demonic Tao forces!
To enter the Eastern Region, one must pass through the territory of the Demonic Tao.
Despite Li Chengshuo being extremely cautious, and even purposely choosing the weakest force, he still encountered a Golden Core Demon Cultivator.
“A newly advanced Golden Core Cultivator dares to break into my Fiend Wind Valley, truly seeking death!” the Demon Cultivator’s eyes were filled with disdain and desire.
The corpse of a Golden Core Cultivator, to him, was an excellent material for Artifact Refining, and once the demonic artifact was made, he could completely raise his own strength by a notch!
A trace of earnestness appeared in Li Chengshuo’s eyes; the opponent’s cultivation was higher than hers, and being a crafty old demon with brutal and unpredictable methods, she was no match for him.
Not to mention, this was the Fiend Wind Valley. Once a battle broke out, it was highly likely to attract even more Demon Cultivators!
Hence, Li Chengshuo had no intention of getting entangled with him. As soon as she saw him, she steered the Spirit Boat away towards the distance and simultaneously threw out several third-tier Talismans to entangle him.
The Demon Cultivator took out a red gourd, from which a Blood Fiend Gale flew out. Under its powerful corrosive nature, the spell quickly weakened.
After but a moment, he burst out of the encirclement of spells.
At this time, he switched to a black gourd in his hand, and the Lightning Fiend Gale enveloped him, transforming him into racing lightning that chased after Li Chengshuo.
What Li Chengshuo didn’t know was that although the strength of Fiend Wind Valley among the myriad demonic forces was the weakest, their methods were the most unpredictable and profound! They employed all kinds of fiendish winds between heaven and earth in a mesmerizing manner.
Watching the Demon Cultivator getting closer and closer to her, Li Chengshuo gritted her teeth and activated her last fourth-tier Talisman, throwing it towards him.
This was a Binding Spell, which afforded Li Chengshuo a great deal of time to escape.
If she happened to encounter another Demon Cultivator as strong as this one next time, she would only have to use the Soul Dividing Jade Slip from Li Zhirui!
And this, Li Chengshuo did not wish to see.
Although its power was formidable, each use would diminish it, and it would also cause Li Zhirui to worry.
Moreover, if used up three times, when returning to the clan, Li Zhirui might even have to make her a Soul Dividing Jade Slip! This would greatly slow down his cultivation progress.
As a result, Li Chengshuo became extra cautious.
Luckily, although she encountered quite a few Demon Cultivators afterwards, they were all Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivators. She didn’t waste time on them, choosing instead just to hurry forward.
After leaving the territory of Fiend Wind Valley, Li Chengshuo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the upcoming journey still had some Demon Cultivator powers, there were other routes she could take, and she would not have to take such risks again.
Moreover, the cultivation level in the Eastern Region was a lot lower than in the Middle Region, and with Li Chengshuo being at the Golden Core Realm, she generally wouldn’t encounter anyone intercepting her on the road.
On the way back to Wanxian Island, Li Chengshuo took a detour to check the location of the Secret Realm that transported her to the Middle Region, only to find that quite a few Cultivators had gathered nearby.
After asking someone, she learned that the news of the Secret Realm had spread.
These Cultivators had all come to try their luck, hoping to be there when the Secret Realm opened.
After clearing up the situation, Li Chengshuo headed straight for Wanxian Island.

“Have I heard correctly, Senior, that you possess a Five Elements Jade Peach?”
The Store Manager of the Southern Edge Commerce Association suddenly visited and, after exchanging pleasantries, stated the purpose of his visit, “The association would like to purchase the Jade Peach from Senior; may I inquire if you are willing to part with it?”
A flicker of surprise crossed Li Zhirui’s eyes. To many forces, the Five Elements Jade Peach capable of slightly increasing the chances of Divine Transformation was an invaluable treasure.
But for the intercontinental Southern Edge Commerce Association, this shouldn’t be a big deal, should it?
“I have already agreed with the Profound Ice Sect, and they might be on their way here even now,” Li Zhirui did not answer, instead bringing up another matter.
The Store Manager gave a slight smile and said, “Senior, that was just a verbal agreement. Moreover, the association will offer the higher bid. Whatever the Profound Ice Sect can offer, our commerce association can match.”
