Lv Ruoxi didn’t recognize this thing either.

"I don’t know either!"

Li Yunjing shook his head. He looked at the little creature and said, "However, this little guy seems to have quite a good talent and a promising future."

In the blink of an eye, the little guy swallowed a Qi Replenishing Pill and continued chirping, as if asking Li Yunjing for more pills.

"Hey! Lucky it’s me! Anyone else would struggle to support you!"

Li Yunjing chuckled inwardly and took out two more Qi Replenishing Pills, feeding them to the little guy.

In just this short period, nearly 30 Low Grade Spirit Stones were gone.

After consuming three Qi Replenishing Pills in a row, the little guy finally felt satisfied, stood on Li Yunjing’s shoulder, buried its head under its feathers, and fell asleep.

"Heh... this little guy sure has it easy, eating and sleeping so well!"

Li Yunjing praised it and then turned to Yu Yunyi and Lv Ruoxi, smiling, "Come on! Let’s go to my study and read some books."

While love between men and women is great, cultivators should still focus their energy on cultivation.

"Alright! We’ll also write down what we’ve learned and leave it in the family records!"

Yu Yunyi smiled as she spoke.

"Isn’t that not appropriate?"

After listening to Yu Yunyi’s words, Li Yunjing felt touched but he hesitated, considering the sect’s rules.

"It’s no big deal! We’re not teaching you, just recording some techniques at home."

Before Yu Yunyi could respond, Lv Ruoxi explained with a playful smile.

"Alright then!"

Li Yunjing nodded and led the two women and the little creature back to his study.

Inside Li Yunjing’s study, rows upon rows of bookshelves were filled with techniques he had acquired, ranging across various levels—a total of over two hundred books.

Many books were cultivation techniques needed by cultivators in the Qi Refining Realm, and the quality was quite low.

Most of these books were ones Li Yunjing had seized, generally unusable for him, but he had a passion for collecting them, enjoying the sight of them filled on the shelves in his study.

Once inside the study, Yu Yunyi and Lv Ruoxi didn’t immediately browse the shelves. Instead, they each found a desk, sat down, and prepared to write their own cultivation techniques and Divine Techniques.

Li Yunjing’s study was vast, like a small library.

Even with not just three but a dozen people here, it wouldn’t be crowded; they could browse and write without any impact on reading.

Seeing the two women being so serious, Li Yunjing smiled to himself. He didn’t disturb Yu Yunyi or Lv Ruoxi, but found a desk for himself, sat down, and started flipping through his books.

Knowledge is the greatest treasure in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.

Nothing is more important than knowledge!

A mammoth sect wishing to last through the ages also relies on knowledge.

The Shenxiao Dao Sect’s knowledge includes not only prescribed cultivation techniques but other techniques and Divine Techniques that require the expenditure of Spiritual Sense and Contribution Points to acquire.

Many disciples in the Shenxiao Dao Sect also have mastered numerous classics.

These classics can be exchanged for substantial benefits.

Li Yunjing’s collection of Tier One techniques and Divine Techniques wasn’t rare.

Aside from being in the study, many duplicates were available in the Star Moon Trading Company.

These books were available for trade, providing cultivation resources for loose cultivators, small clans, and sect disciples.

Selling knowledge, though not highly confidential, is a costless transaction with great benefits.

This tremendously benefits the development of the Star Moon Trading Company.

At present, Li Yunjing was reading the seized Tier Two Divine Techniques, cultivation techniques, and secret techniques, including some from the Yin Mountain Sect and Netherworld Ghost Sect.

Li Yunjing was selecting weaker techniques and Divine Techniques from these books to send to the Star Moon Trading Company for Xing’Er and Yue’Er to sell for Spirit Stones.

This busy period lasted three days before Li Yunjing finally selected the discardable techniques meant for profit.

After completing this task, Li Yunjing noticed Yu Yunyi and Lv Ruoxi were still engrossed in writing, and called out to them, but got no response as they seemed deeply focused.

Li Yunjing shook his head and sighed helplessly.

Inside the study, there were several small partitioned rooms.

Li Yunjing entered one small room, placed a cushion, crossed his legs, soles facing upwards, and sat down.

After a brief period of centering himself, Li Yunjing entered a meditative state, and his breathing began in a specific rhythm.

Time flew by as Li Yunjing reached the Unity of Heaven and Man state. Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy was guided into his meridians, flowing slowly.

This was a daily cultivation routine, and Li Yunjing didn’t enter deep cultivation. After three days, he opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath of turbid air, completing a Grand Circulation of True Essence.

At this point, Li Yunjing noticed Lv Ruoxi and Yu Yunyi had also started their cultivation.

He nodded, refraining from disturbing them, preparing to cultivate in the coming days to face the duel with Han Yanzhi.

On the other side, Han Yanzhi was in a dire state!

Lately, he had been using a black beetle to track Li Yunjing, only to find that Li Yunjing had stayed within Qiuwu Manor without leaving.

Han Yanzhi’s possession technique, regardless of its power and secrecy, couldn’t penetrate the Seven Star Palace, so he hid in the mountains, secretly observing.

After half a month passed without any gain, Han Yanzhi was furious.

Having deployed the possession technique and observed outside, Han Yanzhi couldn’t calm down to meditate and focus his energy for adjusting his state for the duel a week later.

These days, rumors about the duel between Li Yunjing and Han Yanzhi had already spread throughout the Shenxiao Dao Sect.

Regarding Han Yanzhi, many in the sect didn’t recognize him, and his reputation wasn’t as prominent as Li Yunjing’s.

However, once some people introduced Han Yanzhi’s background and his Foundation Establishment Realm Sixth Heaven cultivation level, many were amazed, not expecting this senior brother to be so formidable! 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

This caused many Shenxiao Dao Sect disciples to marvel and discuss, wondering why Li Yunjing had the courage to challenge such a high-level expert!

Fu Chao seized this opportunity to set up a betting pool for the duel.

With nearly all bets placed on Han Yanzhi’s victory, no one believed Li Yunjing could win!

Foundation Establishment Realm Sixth Heaven against Foundation Establishment Realm First Heaven left no room for failure!

Both were true disciples of the sect, not loose cultivators, making it almost impossible to achieve victory with weakness.

Fu Chao’s side collected Spirit Stones without effort.

Seeing Fu Chao’s profitability, other savvy individuals cursed him but quickly began promoting their own betting pools, providing stakes.

Han Yanzhi’s underling He Bao set up his own pool, eagerly propagating the event to make Spirit Stones.

On Li Yunjing’s side, his team quietly placed bets across the various pools, putting significant stakes...

Under these circumstances, the duel between Li Yunjing and Han Yanzhi seemed set to be more explosive than the regular inner and outer sect competitions.

The entire Shenxiao Dao Sect was abuzz.

Even some of the sect’s senior figures were aware of the matter.

In the Seven Star Palace, Palace Master Qin received the reports and sighed, shaking his head slightly.

This kid really is trouble!

Despite trying to curb Li Yunjing for three years to temper his demeanor, shortly after his release, he went and caused trouble, leading to a life-and-death duel.

Can’t this brat just behave for once?
