599: Illusory and fleeting, leaving no trace.
Upon hearing this, Ji Wuchang waved his hand and said with a smile, "Ninth Princess, there is no need to be so polite. For me, the gains were equally immense!"
"This trip to the Royal Secret Realm can be considered a Great Perfection for me as well. If anyone should be giving thanks, it's me thanking you!"
"Thank you for the matter regarding the Heavenly Pole Lingzhi, and the news about the Heavenly Dragon Profound Lotus is also crucial to me!"
"The Heavenly Star Dynasty is vast, but with your methods, managing it shouldn't be a problem. I also congratulate you on achieving your goal!"
Hearing Ji Wuchang's words, Li Xueqin couldn't help but nod slightly. She then picked up her teacup and said with a smile:
"Ji Wuchang, I'll use tea instead of wine to offer you a toast! I believe that one day, your name will surely shake the entire continent!"
"I will be right here in the Heavenly Star Dynasty's Yingtian Prefecture, waiting for the day your name moves the world!"
Ji Wuchang picked up his teacup, clinked it against Li Xueqin's, and then drained it in one gulp.
Li Xueqin set down her teacup, stood up, gave Ji Wuchang a deep look, and then turned to leave resolutely, never looking back.
She knew very well that the paths the two of them had to walk were different; some things were never meant to be.
When it's time to let go, one must let go immediately, otherwise, it only invites unnecessary trouble.
Watching Li Xueqin's departing figure, Ji Wuchang sighed softly. How could he not understand? But the path he had to walk was long, and he would not stop!
"Senior Brother, I see that the Ninth Princess is deeply in love with you. Why don't you just stay in the Heavenly Star Dynasty? That way, wouldn't you become the King's man!"
Jiang Qiye walked up to Ji Wuchang and spoke with a cheeky grin.
Ji Wuchang looked at Jiang Qiye with a faint gaze. A Divine Soul Spike appeared between his brows and stabbed directly into Jiang Qiye's forehead.
This Divine Soul Spike was about half the size of previous ones.
Jiang Qiye let out a miserable scream and hurriedly said, "Senior Brother, I was wrong! Please spare me, my Primordial Spirit is splitting apart!"
Rongcheng Yiyun burst into laughter. Jiang Qiye was clearly asking for it!
Ji Wuchang didn't bother with Jiang Qiye and returned to his room.
He checked the System panel and looked at the System remarks column.
[Remark: Sixty-three years of unused cultivation base, can be used at any time.]
Seeing this, Ji Wuchang's eyes lit up. This was the total cultivation base reward he had received from checking in over these past few days.
He decided to use it; after all, only the cultivation base that has been used truly belongs to oneself.
He looked at the newly copied Battle Techniques, thought for a moment, and finally made up his mind!
"System, use cultivation base to Cultivate the Demonic Path Law-Disrupting Body-Fixing Art until Great Perfection!"
[Ding! Master has cultivated for the first year, the Demonic Path Law-Disrupting Body-Fixing Art has reached entry level!]
[Master has cultivated for the third year, the Demonic Path Law-Disrupting Body-Fixing Art has reached Minor Achievement!]
[Master has cultivated for the sixth year, the Demonic Path Law-Disrupting Body-Fixing Art has reached Major Achievement!]
[Master has cultivated for the tenth year, the Demonic Path Law-Disrupting Body-Fixing Art has reached Great Perfection!]
The System's voice rang out, followed by a massive surge of insights pouring into Ji Wuchang's mind.
Ji Wuchang quickly sat cross-legged to properly digest these insights.
Half an hour later, he opened his eyes, a slight smile appearing at the corners of his mouth!
"System, use cultivation base to Cultivate the Demonic Path Blood-Disrupting Three Bows Technique until Great Perfection!"
[Ding! cultivation base in use. Master has cultivated for the ninth year, the Demonic Path Blood-Disrupting Three Bows Technique has reached Great Perfection!]
After another half hour or so, Ji Wuchang opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.
Having used nineteen years of cultivation base to Cultivate the two secret arts of the Hou Family to Great Perfection, his means of facing enemies in the future had become even more diverse!
Afterward, Ji Wuchang didn't hold back and used his cultivation base to Cultivate Heart-Treading Step, Wind and Thunder Fist, Star Movement, and others.
As his cultivation base broke through, Heart-Treading Step and Wind and Thunder Fist would both unlock new Battle Techniques; naturally, he couldn't let them fall behind!
Finally, he checked and found that only the Mountain Fist copied from Senior Sister Yu Ling remained uncultivated.
Because he only had one year of unused cultivation base left, he couldn't Cultivate it!
Ji Wuchang rested for a moment and then took out a card with a dream-like color, which was exactly the Reincarnation Dream Experience Card.
Since he had exchanged for it last time, he hadn't used it. Taking advantage of the fact that he had time now, with nearly two hours until dawn, he decided to use it.
Expectation showed in his eyes; he wondered what gains he would have this time.
Without hesitation, he crushed the card in his hand and then slowly closed his eyes!
In the Void Realm, it was cold, lonely, and completely silent, with only the sound of howling gales echoing through the void.
Ji Wuchang's Divine Soul appeared, and as the gale blew past, he instantly shivered from the cold!
His Divine Soul looked around and was greatly shocked, for within his sight, besides various moving stones and icebergs, there were also massive skeletons!
Some of these skeletons were like small mountains; it was hard to imagine how enormous they were when they were alive.
The surroundings were pitch black, yet the sky occasionally had silver light moving through it, disappearing in an instant like shooting stars!
Ji Wuchang felt like he was about to freeze solid; his Divine Soul began to ice over.
It was too cold here, a bone-deep chill, and when the wind blew, it felt like knives cutting into his body!
His Divine Soul trembled incessantly, his eyes looking around in a daze.
In the distance, another silver light flashed past.
Ji Wuchang was suddenly stunned; he had just seen a human figure flickering along with the silver light.
He hurriedly drifted toward that distant direction, constantly dodging various floating boulders along the way.
A moment later, his Primordial Spirit was already covered in frost.
But Ji Wuchang didn't care, because he saw that figure again.
He hadn't seen wrong; that figure had turned into a streak of silver light, swimming through the void.
The silver light was like a dancing silver snake, moving east and west, left and right, constantly weaving through the void.
Watching those humanoid silver lights, a faint realization dawned in Ji Wuchang's mind. He didn't move forward but instead fell into deep thought.
As time passed, his Primordial Spirit began to freeze, and his entire Primordial Spirit was trapped inside a block of ice.
Yet Ji Wuchang did not move; his eyes watched that moving figure through the layer of ice.
"Silver light follows the wind, the void is shadowless, unpredictable, and intangible—so this is the true Void Phantom Technique!"
Ji Wuchang murmured to himself, his eyes growing brighter and brighter.
He had already cultivated the Void Phantom Technique to Great Perfection, but as his cultivation base rose, he found it didn't seem as powerful as before!
Because his opponents were getting stronger, ordinary methods could no longer deceive them.
But today was different; he had learned an even more terrifying level behind the Void Phantom Technique.
Ji Wuchang's eyes grew even brighter as he continuously watched that leaping figure.
As the figure leaped, the silver light gradually dissipated, leaving no trace behind.
Void Phantom, no shadow and no trace!
A smile appeared on Ji Wuchang's face, and the ice layer outside his Divine Soul shattered.
His Divine Soul rapidly faded and then vanished without a trace!
Ji Wuchang opened his eyes in his room and exhaled a breath of turbid air, only to feel that this breath was piercingly cold.
