Chapter 115: What Do People Live For?

“My flame is of cold yin nature, so it is unsuitable for refining materials of extreme yang.”
“Damn it, this was a waste of my time. You have to f*cking compensate me for my time!”
The other party’s voice abruptly paused. At the same moment, his face was suddenly filled with horror as he stood rooted in place, motionless.
Li Ming calmly retracted his sword intent. “My apologies, but we really must be more understanding of one another.” This was not the first time he had encountered something like this. He was already experienced in this regard.
One could imagine how powerful the pressure of a golden core realm cultivator was.
The burly man did not say a word more and left dejectedly.
Li Ming knew the importance of efficiency. Time was money, and nothing was more important than time.
After a day of working hard, his brain had gotten rather numb. He could not handle any more orders and shouted, “Everyone, that is it for today. Please come again tomorrow.”
Li Yingfeng gave everyone a tag, each with a number on it. The next morning, they would follow the order as stated by the tags.
Li Ming let out a breath of relief and satisfaction as he had gained quite an ample amount this time. The transaction of 200 spirit stones was equivalent to his usual day’s worth of profit.
As usual, he gave Li Fengying two spirit stones as compensation to the sect for renting the sect’s store. As long as he had another busy seven to eight days, he would be able to pay back the huge sum he owed. His mood immediately improved a lot.
Just as he was about to go back to rest, a voice suddenly sounded behind him. “Junior Brother Li!”
Li Ming’s actions came to a halt. He turned around and saw Senior Brother Li
Zhengxuan standing at the entrance of the store.
“Brother Zhengxuan!” Li Ming was delighted.
Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan seemed to have become a different person. He was wearing a tattered short robe, and his incredibly sharp sword qi was hidden. Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan’s appearance was originally very ordinary, but his clothes right now were utterly without elegance. He looked like the most ordinary low-level cultivator.
It could be inferred from this that Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan’s cultivation had improved once again!
However, the shock on Li Ming’s face grew stronger and stronger. Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan has actually already entered the perfected foundation establishment realm! With his keen senses, he could see the clues at a glance.
How was this possible?
He had only entered the intermediate stage of the foundation establishment realm not long ago, yet he had already reached the perfected level of the foundation establishment realm!
Li Ming’s own improvement could also be said to be monstrous. However, Li Zhengxuan’s cultivation speed was not bad either.
Li Ming listened with great interest to the experiences of the past few days, and his spirits were raised. He was very happy because he believed that it was very normal for his senior brother to be able to do this. It would be too unfair if people like him were not known.
At this moment, Li Fengying also rushed over after hearing the news. She recognized Li Zhengxuan at a glance and could not help but be overjoyed,
“Senior Brother!”
Li Zhengxuan first greeted Li Fengying, then looked at Li Ming and laughed. “Come, come, let’s have a good drink! Let’s get drunk!”
The night sky was filled with stars.
Li Ming brought Li Zhengxuan to the rooftop, drinking fine wine while enjoying the cool breeze.
“Good wine!” Li Zhengxuan could not help but drink two big cups.
“Hehe, this is peach blossom wine.” Li Ming said, “Since you’ve come, how can you not have good wine? That’s why I bought some.”
“Haha! Awesome, awesome!” Li Zhengxuan downed the cup in one gulp.
In the courtyard below, Li Fengying repeatedly shook her head. The usually calm Li Zhengxuan and the usually calm Li Ming were completely different once they started drinking.
“Fortunately, you came to participate in the sword-testing conference. There are many people this time, and I saw many experts.” Li Ming turned his head to take a look and said, “However, I will defeat them and not leave a single one alive!”
Seeing Li Ming’s face, Li Zheng Xuan laughed out loud, “Good! Kill them!”
Li Ming chuckled and shouted. Then, he held the wine pot and suddenly stopped talking.
Seeing Li Ming’s expression, Li Zhengxuan could not help but ask with concern, “Is there something wrong?”
“Senior Brother, what do you think humans live for?”
“What do humans live for?” Li Zhengxuan could not help but straighten his body. He looked into the distance and said, “I do not really know the reason for that. I only have one thought in mind, and that is to see what this sword looks like when it’s cultivated to its peak.”
“Supreme Sword Dao?” Li Ming muttered to himself as he looked into the distance.
He stood on the roof and looked down at the night view. From afar, there were lights everywhere and shouts everywhere.
Li Ming’s tone was filled with pain. “I want to find what I’ve lost and what I’ve forgotten.”
He did not reveal his secret. Otherwise, it would be too shocking.
“Little brother, don’t worry,” Li Zhengxuan consoled him, “Fate works in mysterious ways.”
“Hehe, this is fate! Today, when we brothers gather, we should not talk about such things! Let’s continue drinking!” Li Ming picked up the wine jar and poured it into his mouth.
“Haha!” Li Zhengxuan also laughed loudly. He picked up a pot of wine and shouted, “Ha!”
In the next morning, Li Zhengxuan set off for Dongfu.
Li Ming returned to the days when he had become rich.
The current Li Ming absorbed spiritual qi much faster than before. However, the strange thing was that if he did not use the spiritual qi he absorbed into his body as soon as possible, it would gradually disappear, and he could not store it all.
For a cultivator, the strength of their spiritual qi was directly correlated to the strength of their abilities. If they did not have enough spiritual qi, they would not be able to use at least 70% of the moves they had. The higher the level of the cultivation technique, the more spiritual qi it consumed.
He was very suspicious if it was because there was a problem with his physique.
“Without enough accumulation, it will be difficult for my cultivation to advance, and for my realm to increase…”
Things like formations were really too complicated. However, the world was vast and nothing was impossible.
The demonic pattern itself was something that would not have even crossed the minds of countless others.
In essence, the human body was a formation. When one of its attributes changed, there would definitely be a change in a part of the formation. As long as he found the source of the change and modified it appropriately, the problem would be solved.
Only now did Li Fengying notice that these days, Li Ming seemed to be a little off.
His refining progress was much slower than before. Every time he finished refining, he would be in a daze for a while.
It was a stark contrast to his previous eagerness. Could it be that he had earned enough spirit stones? She could not help but think so.
Li Ming should also relax. Li Ming himself knew best what he had gained every day recently.
Li Ying Feng still could not believe that the seemingly quiet Li Ming could actually make such an exaggerated performance..
