After the chaos caused by the wolves had subsided, two warriors from the caravan stepped forward to surround Li Wuji. Their eyes were sharp, their stances poised with vigilance, ready to strike Li Wuji at the slightest provocation.
‘It’s only natural that they show such hostility to a stranger such as myself.’ Li Wuji understood the thoughts of the two men that were observing him with attentive gazes. ‘A shame their cultivation levels are still substandard, it won’t be a challenge breaking free from this encirclement….”
Li Wuji felt a mix of conical humor and relief as he stood under the watchful eyes of the guards. He was relieved to see his own kind as they were a somewhat easier foe to face, it was even more so for Li Wuji considering he was an invincible existence below the Qi shattering realm.
The guards surrounding him were merely in the mid-stages of the Qi shattering realm, it wasn’t hard for

The following morning, as the gentle rays of dawn illuminated the surroundings, Li Wuji remained quietly nestled in his tent. The events of the previous night lingered in his thoughts, mingling with the expectation of what lay ahead. He needed this moment of solitude to gather his strength and prepare for the challenges that awaited him.‘My wounds are healing up nicely.’ Li Wuji casually felt the clean bandages that were wrapped around his wounds with a light smile on his face. However, the tranquility of the morning was abruptly shattered by a piercing scream that tore through the air. It was a sound that sent shivers down Li Wuji's spine, a scream he recognized all too well. The familiar sound was of a warrior that was in a great deal of discomfort. ‘Anything that can cause a grown man to scream out in such a way, cannot mean the journey will be as smooth as I previously thought.’ Li Wuji could only sigh at the thought of his plans being derailed once again.

Instead, you decided to consult your teacher for advice, I must say well done."Despite consuming excessive amounts of liquor, Master Wu was still able to literate his sentences clearly without stuttering in the slightest.

After the disturbances in the camp subsided, Li Wuji was sitting quietly outside his tent, savoring some recently received warm broth. He was thinking about his goals for the future and a variety of other things."It's inappropriate that the beast has eluded my grasp thus far; however, I still have the opportunity to obtain the beast core that's still inside the body of that beast." With a simple expression on his face, Li Wuji submerged himself in the warm, juicy chunks of beef that bobbed in the soup. It was difficult to imagine what was going through his mind from the outside.Li Wuji had only been out of the Black Temple for a few days, having humiliatingly defeated Master Wei, the prison's overseer. To his dismay, he was unable to collect his reward, even though he was able to kill the white wolf with the beast core inside during that time."Brother Yang."

"So, this is what has become of this part of the camp." Ge Dao said to himself, "It has become as pathetic as a refugee site." Most of the tents at the site were shut off completely; it was almost like the settlers didn't wish to leave their tents unless absolutely necessary."There must be someone who I can ask for guidance." Ge Dao was at a complete loss for where to start looking. He continued to walk around the area in hopes of finding someone who could help him find the tent Li Zhao was residing in. The hunt went on till he discovered a man cautiously coming out of one of the tents. Ge Dao cautiously crept up on him to avoid rousing him out. What an unusual man! Ge Dao said to himself, 'Why would an individual be moving so secretively in the midst of the day?' The individual in issue was obviously weak and fragile in shape, and he appeared to be close to eighty years old. In addition, he was exhausted from keeping quiet as much as possible."He's going through a lot of hardships

The reason Li Wuji had chosen to take up the task so quickly after recovering from his injuries was due to his insatiable hunger for power, it wasn’t something average martial practitioners like Chi Tang could understand. Despite making great progress with his Qi cultivation, Li Wuji understood he was lacking in terms of Body Refinement.‘That beast core should allow me to become a 1 Star Body refinement novice….’ Li Wuji understood that no matter how powerful his Qi Cultivation may be, it meant nothing if his body was still mortal making it susceptible to injury.The Body refinement ranks were as follows;[Body Refinement Beginner][Body Refinement Novice][Body Refinement Master][Body Refinement General][Body Refinement Lord][Body Refinement Sage]Li Wuji had been tempering his body all his life, but he wasn’t even a Body Refinement Beginner.
