It was incredible that a place as desolate as this would have a Dao Comprehension Stone.
Since there was no one around, Jiang Li began to dig beneath the maple tree.
With the strength of someone who had reached the tenth level of Body Tempering, Jiang Li possessed immense power. In a short time, he had excavated the entire area around the maple tree.
The ground was left pockmarked by Jiang Li's digging.
After a cloud of dust billowed up, Jiang Li finally found something resembling a warm seed beneath the maple tree.
Was this a Dao Comprehension Stone?
On the dirt-covered ground lay a stone that emitted a subtle warmth.
The stone appeared ancient, like a small peach pit.
Jiang Li's gaze was captivated by the peach pit, as if it contained a special kind of power.
This must be the Dao Comprehension Stone.
He wondered who could have buried a Dao Comprehension Stone here.
What a waste, fortunately I found it, otherwise it would have been hidden treasure unseen.
Jiang Li carefully examined the Dao Comprehension Stone, which bore peculiar patterns, and felt a faint sense of tranquility.
The Dao Comprehension Stone continuously emitted a warm aura.
Jiang Li's mind seemed to be influenced by the stone, and his spiritual power became exceptionally active.
His comprehension of the "Spirit Snake Step" in his mind deepened gradually.
The Dao Comprehension Stone was truly effective...
This is... Jiang Li's eyes lit up as he felt the rapid circulation of spiritual power in his brain.
"Swish, swish, swish!!!"
Jiang Li unconsciously used the Spirit Snake Step... His movements were like a painting...
Jiang Li's figure moved like a nimble spirit snake, darting around with great agility.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Li felt that his mastery of the Spirit Snake Step had reached a relatively high level.
Had I already entered the beginner stage of the Spirit Snake Step?
Jiang Li's eyes grew brighter and brighter.
In such a short time, it helped me enter the beginner stage of the Spirit Snake Step. This Dao Comprehension Stone is truly a good thing.
Jiang Li was acutely aware of his own aptitude for cultivating martial arts.
According to his usual progress, it would have taken several days to reach the beginner stage. Yet, this Dao Comprehension Stone was so miraculous.
In such a short period, it had brought him such significant progress.
With renewed determination, he continued his training.
Jiang Li persisted in practicing the Spirit Snake Step.
His comprehension of the Spirit Snake Step in his mind accelerated even faster.
If anyone else were to witness Jiang Li's performance at this moment, they would surely be astonished.
At this point, Jiang Li had almost transformed into a spirit snake, moving with incredible speed.
Half an hour later.
Jiang Li felt that his Spirit Snake Step had reached a state of effortless mastery, as if he had completely grasped it.
Moreover, Jiang Li's speed underwent a significant transformation at this moment.
His movements became even more unfathomable.
Spirit Snake Step: Minor Accomplishment!!!
"Hoo!"
Jiang Li exhaled, relieved. This Dao Comprehension Stone was indeed effective; it could truly accelerate the comprehension of martial arts.
In just half an hour, his Spirit Snake Step had reached Minor Accomplishment.
What a treasure, Jiang Li looked at the Dao Comprehension Stone in his hand, his heart filled with excitement.
With this, combined with his innate physique and exceptionally fast cultivation speed, it would be difficult not to soar.
Jiang Li carefully put away the Dao Comprehension Stone and then left the secluded spot.
...
At the entrance of the Beast Mountain Range, quite a few people were still milling around.
Jiang Li used his Life Script System to continuously scan the life scripts of various disciples.
"What are you loitering around here for, kid? I've been watching you for a while!" Just as Jiang Li was aimlessly scanning the surrounding disciples, a cold voice suddenly reached his ears.
Jiang Li slowly turned around, facing a fellow wearing an outer disciple's uniform, who looked at him with ill intentions.
[Name]: Zhao Ping
[Realm]: Body Tempering Ninth Heaven
[Destiny]: Ordinary (Red), Premature Death Omen (Gray).
[Life Script]: A passerby in "The Undying Demonic Lord," an outer disciple of the Yellow Spring Demonic Sect. He likes to bully the weak and fear the strong. He will eventually be devoured by a beast in the Beast Mountain Range. Sudann.com
[Favorability]: -20
[Recent Turning Point]: None.
[Premature Death Omen]: Dies young.
Jiang Li frowned slightly. Was he bothering you by being here?
I haven't provoked him in any way. As expected, good-looking people attract attention everywhere. My darned appearance is truly troublesome.
Jiang Li looked at the young man before him, feeling a hint of pity. Someone who wouldn't live much longer...
"Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Zhao Ping continued coldly.
"What are you barking about!"
Jiang Li said lightly. Although he didn't want to argue with someone who was destined to die, such an annoying fly, if not given a taste of his own medicine... he would truly think he could do anything...
"Boom!!!"
As soon as Jiang Li spoke, Zhao Ping's expression changed.
"Bold! A mere handyman disciple dares to speak so arrogantly! What is your status, and what is mine!" Zhao Ping's face turned extremely grim.
He had only intended to teach this guy a small lesson, but he hadn't expected him to utter such presumptuous words.
Barking? This brat, if I don't beat you like a dead dog later, I won't be called Zhao Ping.
Jiang Li smiled. As expected, those who deserve pity are often hateful. Since you wish to die, I shall fulfill your wish.
"Boom, boom, boom!!!"
Jiang Li gathered spiritual energy in his right hand, then formed his palm into a fist and threw a heavy punch.
The ferocious power made Zhao Ping's heart sink.
Isn't this guy a handyman disciple? How is that possible!
"Bang!!!"
Jiang Li's fist landed heavily on Zhao Ping.
To Zhao Ping's extreme terror, his head was directly blown apart by Jiang Li's fist.
An outer disciple bled to death at the entrance of the Beast Mountain Range.
The surrounding disciples watched this scene with great interest.
"This Zhao Ping really kicked a steel plate. Did he really think handyman disciples couldn't be formidable..."
"I knew it, Zhao Ping, with his arrogance, would die because of it sooner or later... I just didn't expect it to happen so soon..."
"This disciple who killed Zhao Ping is also not simple. That terrifying power is almost comparable to an ordinary Qi Condensation cultivator in the first stage. Zhao Ping didn't die in vain..."
...
...
Voices of discussion continuously echoed from the side.
These disciples of the Demonic Sect were long accustomed to such daily killings.
After all, as long as it wasn't themselves who died, they didn't care about anyone else.
However, many people remembered Jiang Li's face and placed him in the category of "not to be trifled with."
After dealing with Zhao Ping, Jiang Li began to search his body.
Even as an outer disciple, the difference between them was so vast.
Jiang Li searched his entire body but only found a few Blood Spirit Pills.
Not even a full bottle, what a pauper...
