Emperor Qiankun

Chapter 454 Rebirth and Seclusion

I waited from noon until late at night.

Time seemed to stand still, and every minute and second felt so long.

A powerful aura gradually emanated from inside the room.

Like a sleeping behemoth slowly awakening, it exudes an awe-inspiring power.

Li Qingyuan's troubled spirits were immediately lifted.

He knew in his heart that Elder Hua had finished refining the elixir and had fully recovered.

That imposing presence is the best proof.

Sure enough, the next moment.

Old Hua then walked out slowly with weak but firm steps.

It was clear that his body was still as thin and emaciated as before, like a dry stick.

His aged face was covered with wrinkles, and his white hair was like frost in winter.

However, his face was no longer that chilling deathly pale, but had regained some color.

Like a ray of dawn breaking through the darkness, the situation took a dramatic turn for the better; the toxins were completely eliminated, and it was as if they had been reborn.

Then, Hua Lao's voice trembled with excitement:

"Excellent, excellent, excellent! I can't believe I actually survived..."

He laughed loudly, looking up at the sky.

The laughter was filled with the joy of surviving a disaster, reverence for life, and anticipation for the future; it was indescribably exhilarating.

Li Qingyuan, however, knew.

This is Hua Lao's longing for life finally being answered, and his indomitable struggle against fate having achieved victory.

He was genuinely happy for Mr. Hua, and his eyes glistened with tears of emotion.

......

------

At this moment.

Old Hua seemed to have endless things to say.

This was the first time in so long that he had left his wheelchair and rediscovered the freedom of standing and walking, and he was as excited as a child.

He held Li Qingyuan's hand, asking her all sorts of questions and concerns, from daily life to cultivation insights, they talked about everything.

He also talked about some of his experiences here.

All the loneliness, pain, and perseverance of the past have transformed into warm memories in this moment.

It didn't take long.

Hua Hanying had prepared a sumptuous dinner, the steaming dishes emitting an enticing aroma.

Yue Qinghuan came skipping and hopping to call the group to dinner.

Her face was beaming with a bright smile.

Everyone enjoyed the dinner, but each person experienced happiness in their own unique way.

The whole house was filled with laughter and joy, as if enveloped in a glow of happiness.

......

------

Time flows on and on.

After the turmoil, Medicine King Valley gradually returned to its former tranquility and peace.

The bustling scene of the past has reappeared, and everywhere is full of vitality.

Li Qingyuan and two others accompanied Elder Hua for several days.

Once everything was settled, they formally bid farewell to Elder Hua and each entered into seclusion.

The purpose of this trip to Zhongzhou was to rescue Elder Hua from danger.

Now that the goal has been successfully achieved, the trip has not been in vain.

The old ox was the first to ask Li Qingyuan for the giant leg of the Nine Heavens Thunder Scale Beast.

Then, he couldn't wait to find a quiet place and devote himself to cultivation.

However, regarding the upcoming Tianjiao Conference...

That was a grand gathering of outstanding talents and promising young minds from all over the world.

Li Qingyuan and Yue Qinghuan were filled with longing and anticipation.

Especially Li Qingyuan.

The thought of failing to defeat Yun Yi at the Wanbao Grand Ceremony filled him with an overwhelming urge to kill.

That murderous intent burned like a raging fire; he wished he could kill him immediately.

If he had the chance to clash with Yun Yi again at the Heavenly Pride Tournament, he would definitely not hesitate to take action and completely eliminate him.

......

Soon, Li Qingyuan cleared his mind of all distractions and entered a state of seclusion.

This time, his goal in seclusion was clear and unwavering—

One must at least break through to the Heavenly Gang Realm, since the higher the realm, the better.

Now, he has no shortage of precious cultivation resources.

His past experiences have also given him a wealth of knowledge.

The only thing missing is that precious time.

Fortunately, the Time Gate in the Qiankun Palace opened a door for him to catch up with time.

This gave him more opportunities to race against time.

Li Qingyuan sat quietly cross-legged on the Time Futon.

The futon emitted a soft and mysterious light, as if it were immersing him in this wondrous realm of cultivation.

He slowly took out the pills he had carefully prepared to break through his cultivation level.

These pills were all round and plump, emitting an enticing medicinal fragrance.

Just hearing about it is enough to make one feel happy and invigorated; high-grade elixirs are indeed extraordinary.

He gently placed the pill into his mouth.

In an instant, the pill melted upon entering the mouth, transforming into a surging and powerful medicinal force.

It surged into his meridians like a raging tide.

The medicinal power flowed freely through his meridians, constantly filling and nourishing every inch of them.

It filled his body with power, giving him a much better chance of breaking through to a higher realm.

......

------

Thanks to his unique physique, Li Qingyuan took ten pills at once.

At that moment, he felt incredibly comfortable.

It was a completely different feeling from the unbearable burning sensation during body tempering.

It was as if an invisible force was quietly surging within him, flowing slowly along his meridians, nourishing every inch of his skin and every cell.

A strong intuition welled up within him:

If he continues like this, repeating it several times, breaking through to the Heavenly Gang Realm will be as natural as sailing with the current, a natural and effortless process.

This is not only due to his profound understanding and insights into the path of cultivation in his previous life.

It is also because his natural talent far surpasses that of the so-called geniuses in this world.

His extraordinary talent is like the most dazzling star in the night sky, so brilliant that it is beyond the reach of others.

Moreover, he also has many mysterious and powerful aids such as the Qiankun Palace and the Gate of Time.

These are like solid steps on his path of spiritual practice, allowing him to climb to the summit as if walking on flat ground.

It was as if he had a cheat code, making everything as easy and effortless as if he were on a winning streak.

Therefore, Li Qingyuan's cultivation was easy and effortless, without any pressure.

It is precisely because of these unique advantages that it has such advantages.

This allows him to handle even powerful opponents who are a whole realm above him with ease.

They even killed him in a fierce battle!

He really can't be viewed as just an ordinary teenager.

He possesses boundless potential and possibilities, and his future will undoubtedly shine with unparalleled brilliance!
