After returning to Chen Bell Platform, Li Qian resumed his daily routine of bell-striking cultivation.
Having acquired a vast amount of cultivation resources from the Demon Clan Great Saint, he lacked nothing and was extremely wealthy.
After all, he had accumulated the fortunes of two top-tier Great Saints, one Advanced Great Saint, two Intermediate Great Saints, one top-tier Array Master, and many Demon Saints — his wealth was to the extreme.
Even though many of the items were used by the Demon Race, there were still plenty of valuable things he could utilize.
As a result, his many disciples no longer lacked resources for cultivation.
To hasten their cultivation pace, Li Qian even directly allowed them to use Primordial Stones for cultivation.
Simply put, he had the financial means to do so.
Li Qian also reflected on his recent battle experiences against the four Demon Clan Great Saints and felt that his offensive methods were somewhat too simplistic and lacking in power.
Both the Qi Blood Holy Realm and the Chen Bell’s chime were meant to support the attack, mainly for suppression...
In contrast, his regular combat abilities, such as the Sword Domain and Great River Sword Qi, didn’t play a significant role in the two tough battles.
That was his shortcoming.
Thus, he felt the necessity to cultivate one or two powerful offensive techniques.
Although he had obtained numerous storage devices from various Demon Saints and even Great Saints, which contained many powerful Demon Race secret skills, unfortunately, they were not suitable for him.
"It seems I can only start from the Dao Sect."
Li Qian thought to himself.
Originally, he did not wish to have too much contact with the Dao Sect.
But now, it seems necessary as the likelihood of facing danger on his own was increasing; unless he did nothing and hid away in Chen Bell Platform for cultivation, that was not very realistic.
Under the grand situation where Human and Demon clans could not coexist, it was impossible for him to stay out of it.
If he were to take action only after the Human Clan’s Martial League had completely collapsed and could not stop the Demon Clan’s large-scale invasion, it would be too late, no matter what he said.
...
Stepping Cloud Peak.
Within the vast palace.
Purple-robed Martial Saint Yan Fu was sitting cross-legged.
These past few years, no major events had occurred in Chang Country.
Hence, as the presiding Martial Saint, he naturally had nothing to do and was very idle; he spent every day in Stepping Cloud Peak, focusing solely on cultivation.
He was bored to death.
Suddenly, purple-robed Martial Saint Yan Fu’s eyes snapped open.
Because a figure in a black robe and a hood had unexpectedly appeared in the great hall.
He had no idea when the person had entered.
"You..."
Purple-robed Martial Saint Yan Fu was on high alert. He could not detect the other party’s aura, yet it felt as vast as the sea and stars.
"Where is Wang Xi?"
The person in the black robe spoke indifferently.
"Wang Xi brother isn’t here... You, you are that Human Saint predecessor..."
It seemed that Yan Fu Martial Saint remembered something, and his expression became respectful.
Within Chang Country, there was a powerful Great Saint hidden... who was also suspected to have comprehended the Qi Blood Holy Realm.
"Tell him to come see me."
Li Qian said.
"Yes, predecessor, I’ll send a message immediately."
Purple-robed Martial Saint Yan Fu hurriedly said.
Thus, in front of Li Qian, he took out a Jade Token, inscribed a message with his Spiritual Sense, and then slotted it into a niche in the Bronze Gate.
Li Qian watched this scene with some surprise.
What was this Bronze Gate?
Could it transmit messages over long distances?
After a faint glow from the Bronze Gate returned to normal.
"Predecessor, please wait a moment, it might take some time for my Dao Sect to respond."
Purple-robed Martial Saint Yan Fu said.
Li Qian nodded.
He didn’t mind waiting a bit.
After all, he had plenty of time.
This wait turned into most of the day, with purple-robed Martial Saint Yan Fu starting to feel uneasy.
He didn’t know what was happening on the Dao Sect’s side, why there was no response for so long?
This was highly unusual.
"Predecessor, it must be because brother Wang Xi is out, so it’s taking time for him to return..."
Purple-robed Martial Saint Yan Fu spoke.
Li Qian neither agreed nor disagreed.
Just like this, several more hours passed.
Just as Yan Fu was agonizing and worrying that the Human Saint would leave, the Bronze Gate finally trembled slightly and then emitted light.
"Predecessor, they’re here."
Yan Fu saw the reaction from the Bronze Gate, felt joy in his heart, and hurriedly spoke.
