138. Chapter 138 Everything Has A Definite Number, Too Much Is Too Much!
Chapter 138: Everything has its predetermined outcome, moderation is key!
The Immortal Slayer Magic Blade has a seal on its surface, preventing any soul from being imprinted on it.
Therefore, although it can be successfully stored in the sea of consciousness, it cannot communicate with the owner's mind like a normal spiritual treasure, nor can it unleash the extraordinary power that a top-grade spiritual weapon should have.
The only notable advantage is that its blade is tough and sharp enough!
When it comes to killing demonic beasts, it is much more effective than the alloy dagger in Xiaofei Hong's hand!
So, after obtaining the Immortal Slayer Magic Blade, Xiaofei Hong directly discarded the alloy dagger in her hand and rushed into the demonic beast group with the Immortal Slayer Magic Blade.
With her Martial Master realm martial arts strength, none of the demonic beasts present could be her match!
Even the mid-level Golden Body realm demonic beasts in front of her were easily dealt with, one by one.
In contrast, Lou Xiaoxiao, who had a mid-level Golden Body realm cultivation, was not as impressive. She had been entangled in a fight with a mid-level Golden Body realm demonic beast.
It wasn't until she completely refined the Spirit Crane Pill and successfully activated the "Forbidden Martial Domain" sealed within the pill that the situation immediately reversed.
After being enveloped by black smoke, the mid-level Golden Body realm demonic beast became blind and deaf, and its demonic power was greatly suppressed, unable to sense the approaching danger.
So, when facing Lou Xiaoxiao's fatal blow, it stood still like a target and was ultimately pierced through the throat by Xiaoxiao, dying without any chance of survival!
"So powerful!"
"I never expected that the two disciples of Advisor Liu would be so fierce!"
"Even the peak-level Golden Body realm demonic beasts are as easy to deal with as cutting vegetables?!"
"Before, I thought it was impressive enough for Li Shengji and the other five Golden Body realm warriors to surround and be injured by a demonic beast of the same realm, but now, compared to Advisor Liu's two disciples, he's nothing, right?"
"Yeah, he's not even close!"
"Before, when Li Shengji and the others, the five Golden Body realm warriors, surrounded a demonic beast of the same realm, they were all injured by the demonic beast and managed to escape calmly!"
"With that level of skill, how can they compare to these two little fairies?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, this is what they call a master producing outstanding disciples, right?"
"Even the disciples he taught are so amazing, I wonder how profound Advisor Liu's martial arts realm is?"
"I wonder if Advisor Liu is still accepting disciples, I suddenly want to become his disciple..."
Seeing the decisive and invincible performance of Ye Feihong and Lou Xiaoxiao in their battle against the demonic beasts, the soldiers and officers around the military camp were all amazed.
Especially Sun Zhan and the other two officers who had just advanced to the Golden Body realm, they felt a mix of emotions and were ashamed of themselves.
They never expected that the Golden Body realm they had just broken through to was nothing compared to these two little girls in front of them!
When did they see these two girls killing peak-level Golden Body realm demonic beasts as casually as cutting vegetables or drinking water?
If these two girls were to turn around and fight them, wouldn't it be like playing with them?
Compared to these little girls, they felt like they had wasted these years, like useless trash!
Only Li Shengji, Zhu Fang, and the others were not present.
Otherwise, they would definitely be clutching their newly grown arms and legs, tearfully telling Sun Zhan and the others: their arms and legs were broken by these little girls right in front of them!
And that girl in the red dress, she's not even in the Golden Body realm, she's a freaking Martial Master!
From beginning to end, Advisor Liu didn't even make a move, and they were all turned into "human sticks" by these little girls!
Soon.
With the help of Ye Feihong and Lou Xiaoxiao, all the mid-level and group-level demonic beasts that had invaded the city were completely killed.
And with the death of these high-level demonic beasts, without their leadership and intimidation, the horde of beasts surrounding the city instantly stagnated.
Whoosh!
All the demonic beasts seemed to have received a signal and began to scatter and flee at the same time. In a matter of seconds, they retreated more than ten miles outside the city's defense line!
It's safe!
The retreat of the horde of beasts also meant that this city defense battle had completely ended, and Jinmen City was defended!
"We won!"
"We won!"
The soldiers on the city wall cheered loudly, tears of joy streaming down their faces.
The warriors in the city also breathed a sigh of relief, sitting on the ground in a disheveled manner, gasping for breath.
The elderly and children who had been staying at home since the outbreak of the beast tide dared not go out.
At this moment, they heard the thunderous cheers outside and opened their windows, sticking their heads out to look towards the direction outside the city.
The crisis was over, and they had survived once again!
On the faces of every survivor, a hint of joy and relief appeared involuntarily.
Liu Zimo stood in the center of the city, his divine sense covering the entire city.
Naturally, he could feel the joy emanating from the soldiers and civilians in the city.
His memory seemed to have returned to the previous life in San Yuan City.
Every time the city defense battle ended, he and all the soldiers who participated in the battle would cheer and celebrate their survival!
In such a doomsday world where there was no hope for tomorrow, he, like most humans, never gave up his desire for life!
The battle was over.
Sun Zhan, Li Shengji, as well as Xiao Feihong, Lou Xiaoxiao, and others, all returned to the military office.
Liu Zimo had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time.
"Master!" "Master!"
When they saw Liu Zimo, Xiao Feihong and Xiaoxiao both shouted in joy and appeared beside Liu Zimo like flying swallows returning to their nests.
"Advisor Liu!"
"Instructor Liu!"
Li Shengji, Sun Zhan, and the others stood in front of Liu Zimo obediently, either saluting or bowing, showing utmost respect to Liu Zimo.
Just now, they had learned everything that happened after they left the military office from the guards who stayed behind.
Especially when they heard that there was a giant monster corpse with a size of at least a thousand kilometers and a weight of at least millions of tons appearing at the military office, they were all drenched in cold sweat.
You should know that even the peak Golden Body Realm monsters they had killed before were only a hundred meters in size and weighed only tens of thousands of tons.
And the monster that died at the military office was actually over a thousand kilometers in size and millions of tons in weight. Its cultivation strength must have far exceeded the peak Golden Body Realm.
After two monster disasters and several city defense battles, whether it was Jinmen or other cities, the human warriors had become accustomed to judging the approximate cultivation strength of monsters based on their size.
The bigger the size, the stronger the strength, and it had almost become a rule with few exceptions.
So when they heard that the monster that died at the military office, even as a corpse, completely filled the courtyard, how could they not be terrified?
Such a huge monster corpse, its true cultivation strength must be at least at the Master Realm, right?
Just imagine, a powerful monster with Master Realm strength suddenly invaded the central city area while they were all fighting the monsters outside the city!
What a terrible disaster it would be!
Sun Zhan, Li Shengji, and the others couldn't even imagine it!
If it weren't for the presence of a powerhouse like Advisor Liu to protect them, it was uncertain whether Jinmen City could continue to exist today!
They had saved their lives!
Not only did they save themselves, but they also saved their families and friends behind them. They saved the entire Jinmen City and the millions of civilians trapped inside!
It was an immeasurable merit!
"The crisis is over, everyone can rest now!"
Liu Zimo waved his hand to the crowd and then looked at Sun Zhan, saying softly,
"Director Sun, would you mind arranging a temporary residence for my disciples and me here at the military office?"
"We may have to disturb you here for a while."
Upon hearing this, Sun Zhan's face bloomed with a smile, and he quickly responded, "Of course, it's our honor to be able to accommodate such distinguished guests like Instructor Liu!"
"Instructor Liu, please follow me. I will personally take you to the resting place!"
Waving his hand to dismiss the people behind him, Sun Zhan personally led Liu Zimo and his disciples to the most spacious courtyard on the east side of the residence.
This was originally his temporary residence in the camp, equipped with all the necessary living items. Now it happened to be available for Liu Zimo and his disciples to temporarily stay.
"We apologize for the simple conditions here, and hope that General Liu won't mind!"
"If there is anything you need, General Liu, please don't hesitate to ask. Please don't be polite with us!"
After inviting them into the house, Sun Zhan smiled and poured hot water, took out new blankets from the cabinet, and was full of enthusiasm.
To be honest, he really wished that high-level people like General Liu could live in their Jinmen City forever!
In that case, he wouldn't have to worry and lose sleep at night. Even if he dreamed, he would definitely wake up with a smile!
"No need to trouble yourself!"
After entering the house, Liu Zimo scanned with his divine sense and set up a simple illusion formation around the room. He whispered to Sun Zhan:
"We won't stay here for too long. At the latest tomorrow, we will leave Jinmen and head to the next city."
"The reason I said we would stay here for a while was just to deceive others and reassure them!"
Sun Zhan's body trembled, and his cheerful smile froze on his face.
What does this mean?
General Liu is not planning to stay here for long?
And they are leaving tomorrow?!
Sun Zhan couldn't react for a moment.
General Liu and his disciples arrived at night and are leaving at dawn. So they only stayed in Jinmen City for one night?
Do they have to be in such a hurry?
He had originally wanted to take the opportunity while General Liu was here to learn from him and get to know him better!
As a result, before he even had a chance to sit down, they were leaving.
"Here are 100 drops of Spirit Crane Blood, which can help you and your subordinates rapidly improve your cultivation strength!"
"Also, these three Breaking Realm Pills can directly promote three peak Iron Bone Realm warriors to break through and advance!"
"With these two things, even if news of our departure leaks, you will have enough strength and confidence to suppress Li Shengji and others!"
Without explaining too much to Sun Zhan, Liu Zimo waved his hand and took out a hundred drops of Spirit Crane Blood and three Breaking Realm Pills from the Eastern Pearl, and handed them to Sun Zhan. He said in a calm voice:
"In any case, the defense of Jinmen City will be entrusted to you."
"After everything is settled, you can personally go to the capital city and establish an alliance for defense."
"In this way, we can take care of each other if we encounter any difficulties in the future!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Zhan couldn't help but take a deep breath, reluctantly accepting the fact that General Liu and his disciples would soon leave Jinmen.
He received the Spirit Crane Blood and Breaking Realm Pills with both hands, stood up straight, listened attentively to Liu Zimo's instructions, and firmly remembered them in his heart.
Ten minutes later.
Sun Zhan pretended to be calm, holding the last gift from General Liu, and walked out of the courtyard with great excitement, quickly returning to his office.
Slam!
After closing the door and making sure there was no one around, the feigned joy on Sun Zhan's face instantly disappeared.
He glanced at the porcelain bottle containing the Spirit Crane Blood, hesitated for a moment, and directly poured a drop into his mouth!
Boom!
Endless spiritual energy exploded in his mouth, rushing into his intestines, lungs, and limbs, tearing and strengthening his physical body, enhancing his internal cultivation!
"What a domineering spiritual power!"
Sun Zhan exclaimed in his heart.
"No wonder General Liu repeatedly emphasized that with my cultivation at the initial stage of the Golden Body Realm, I can only take one drop at most!"
"Just this drop of energy almost shattered the Golden Body that I had just condensed with great difficulty!"
"If it were a warrior below the Golden Body Realm, they would definitely be torn to pieces by this extremely domineering spiritual power!"
Feeling the increasing energy in his body, Sun Zhan dared not think too much and quickly activated the recently learned "Pingyang Breathing Technique," swiftly guiding and refining the energy of the blood.
At the same time Sun Zhan was cultivating by swallowing the blood, in front of Liu Zimo, Xiao Feihong and Lou Xiaoxiao were also taking the Spirit Crane Blood to enhance their own cultivation strength.
For his beloved disciples, Liu Zimo naturally wouldn't be stingy.
In front of the two girls, there were two porcelain bottles, each containing two hundred drops of essence blood, allowing the two girls to practice and squander as they pleased.
In other words, as long as they weren't afraid of overeating, Liu Zimo could provide them with as much as they wanted!
[Your good sister Ye Feihong refines a drop of 'Spirit Crane Essence Blood', stabilizing her foundation, skyrocketing her qi and blood! Triggering the talent attribute 'Stealing Heaven', sharing half of the qi and blood increase, martial foundation +1, martial cultivation +2, qi and blood +10,000.]
[Your good sister Lou Xiaoxiao refines a drop of 'Spirit Crane Essence Blood', stabilizing her foundation, skyrocketing her qi and blood...]
[Your good brother Sun Zhan refines a drop of 'Spirit Crane Essence Blood', stabilizing his foundation, skyrocketing his qi and blood...]
Successive notifications of three abilities sounded in Liu Zimo's ears in different chronological order.
Ye Feihong's refining speed was the fastest, consuming a drop of 'Spirit Crane Essence Blood' almost every five minutes.
Lou Xiaoxiao was slightly slower, needing half an hour to completely refine the energy in the essence blood.
Sun Zhan was the slowest, taking nearly an hour to absorb and refine the first drop of essence blood.
"The Spirit Crane's essence blood is strong, but it seems that it cannot be refined indefinitely."
Liu Zimo glanced at Xiao Feihong and muttered softly to himself.
"Judging by the progress of her cultivation improvement, the refining effect of the first ten drops of 'Spirit Crane Essence Blood' is the best, almost each drop can increase her martial cultivation by about four years."
"After ten drops, the enhancement effect of the essence blood will be halved, with each drop only able to increase martial cultivation by a maximum of two years."
"After twenty drops, cultivation will no longer increase, and the enhancement of qi and blood will be directly reduced by half."
"After that, it seems that it can only supplement some necessary qi and blood power, and taking more is simply a waste of resources!"
Liu Zimo shook his head slightly.
"Indeed, the consumption and refining of any spiritual object or elixir in this world follows a basic and simple rule."
"That is, everything has its limit, and going too far is not good!"
"Even poison, if consumed too much, will develop a certain resistance, let alone spiritual medicine or elixirs?"
"The 'Spirit Crane Essence Blood' is the same. Drinking too much of it will build resistance in the body, and further consumption will be useless!"
As for why the Tortoise of Longevity could continuously swallow a thousand drops of essence blood before and even directly advance to a higher realm of cultivation...
Liu Zimo speculated that it was because the Tortoise of Longevity was also an ancient spiritual beast, with a huge body and a high tolerance limit.
Moreover, it consumed the 'Spirit Crane Essence Blood' mainly to replenish the missing spiritual energy and qi and blood in its own body.
In fact, it wasn't truly cultivating, but repairing and recovering. That's why it had such miraculous effects when it consumed a thousand drops of 'Spirit Crane Essence Blood'!
Soon, after about two hours.
Xiao Feihong voluntarily stopped refining the 'Spirit Crane Essence Blood'.
Obviously, she also discovered that the refining effect of the essence blood was greatly reduced, and the improvement in her cultivation was almost negligible.
Since that was the case, she didn't need to continue wasting such precious 'Spirit Crane Essence Blood'.
Fortunately.
Twenty drops of 'Spirit Crane Essence Blood' provided her with a total of sixty years of martial cultivation, greatly advancing her martial cultivation realm!
As a result, Liu Zimo also gained thirty years of cultivation benefits, which was simply delightful.
A night passed without a word.
Early the next morning, Lou Xiaoxiao, who had finally completely refined the twenty drops of 'Spirit Crane Essence Blood', broke through once again, directly advancing her martial cultivation to the peak of the Golden Body realm!
As for Sun Zhan, he didn't disappoint either.
After a night of hard practice, even though he only refined a pitiful ten drops of essence blood, his cultivation realm also broke through to the mid-stage of the Golden Body realm.
Although he still couldn't compare to Li Shengji, at least he had the ability to fight and wouldn't be easily crushed like before.
"Alright, it's about time!"
"It's time to leave!"
When the first ray of golden sunlight quietly fell into Jinmen City from the rising sun in the east.
Liu Zimo stood up slowly, facing the eastern sunrise, and softly spoke to his two disciples.
