The King of Urban Mercenaries

Chapter 1697 - 1702: Why Not Have Some Tea

In the six or seven days since Lin Fei arrived at Qianhuang Peak, Lin Fei already had an idea that’s truly speechless—it’s to leave here, leave Qianhuang Peak, leave a Holy Land in the hearts of the people of the Upper Realm!

Of course, there were just too many reasons including being targeted by the Confucian Emperor.

Right now, Lin Fei told Senior Sister Qian Miao that the Godspeed Talisman has nine levels, and only by learning one level can you achieve it. At this moment, Lin Fei really wants to slap himself!

The real Godspeed Talisman is actually a genuine rune, ever-changing and full of mystery. Lin Fei thinks that if a hundred people tried to understand this rune, not one of their interpretations would be the same, thus Lin Fei threw himself into a dead end with this puzzle he came up with and can’t find a way out.

Lin Fei now has no idea how to handle it. If it were Qian Miao, that would be manageable, but the other party is an Emperor!

Although he doesn’t yet know what an Emperor exactly is, or understand the status in the Upper Realm, Lin Fei believes that the man who is hundreds of times stronger than Dugu Aotian is not easy to deal with.

Lin Fei believes if the other side found out he is lying, the outcome would be conceivable.

So Lin Fei’s biggest trouble right now is his own lie. What he doesn’t know is that during this time, Qian Miao has already reported Lin Fei’s words to the Confucian Emperor, who issued a new command, thus Lin Fei’s worry is actually unnecessary.

As for Lin Fei, he’s caught in his own random thoughts, and there’s no conclusion, he can only take one step at a time. The resources of Qianhuang Peak are certainly not simple, at least Lin Fei thinks since Qianhuang Peak is a Holy Land in the hearts of people from the Upper Realm, their resources should be top-notch.

And Lin Fei was not wrong, as he said. Take this spiritual power source, for example, when it comes to resource opening, besides Qianhuang Peak, the number of people who can offer such resources is definitely limited.

Lin Fei’s idea is simple, but executing it requires preparation. He needs to quickly improve his cultivation as much as possible, otherwise, how could he venture below? If he can’t survive, the final outcome would be unspeakable, he might die and no one will know, let alone see his family in the Lower Realm.

The difficulty is indeed quite great, after all, Lin Fei’s current strength basically cannot defeat even the youngest disciple with the lowest cultivation on Qianhuang Peak. With just his Golden Core Realm as a cultivator, wanting to leave here is incredibly difficult!

Thinking for a long time, Lin Fei felt this idea could only be realized in a state of full strength, thus Lin Fei entered a frantic cultivation mode!

Every month there is a resource opening and a Dao Skill lecture. Of course, during this Dao Skill lecture, the teachers vary in strength. Just like today, that old man’s strength was very strong, definitely one of the stronger people on Qianhuang Peak, yet he still wrote down three characters.

These three characters were for the disciples to understand, with differing understandings but all had significant gains. In some aspects, Lin Fei had an advantage in understanding these characters; seeing the word "movement" allowed him to discern many things he couldn’t comprehend before, realizing that Dao is something with a trajectory.

As long as one continuously explores the trajectory of Dao, eventually touching Dao’s origin, then whether it’s offensive power or agility, even during battle, these are the keys to victory, so Lin Fei began to vigorously understand the Godspeed Talisman.

Although the elderly man generously left the characters for students to contemplate, there was indeed a time limit, and the embodiment of Dao rhythm is not easily recalled.

Such things can only be felt and not conveyed, but even the ability to feel requires a reference object, and the disappearance of the reference object basically ends the possibility to continue referencing.

It shows how important it is to have a great master.

If there is such an impressive master, they might idle write a powerful character for you to understand.

Of course, Lin Fei is not one to complain about fate, so he did not mind these things but put all his effort into diligently cultivating, pacing back and forth in his room each day. If anyone saw, they would discover that Lin Fei, in the blink of an eye, had already made a round trip, just in a blink he took back a painting from the opposite wall, such speed is indescribable.

After that, Lin Fei felt his cultivation hit a bottleneck, he opened the door, took a deep breath of air filled with Primordial Energy, the air in the Upper Realm was full of rich Primordial Energy which might suggest why people from the Upper Realm start at a higher level.

After all, the place you live decides many things, including physical constitution and strength level.

"Hey, junior brother, you finally stepped out of your room? However, your cultivation is indeed a bit stronger again." A woman’s voice rang out, Lin Fei turned and saw Yang Yuxiang sitting in her courtyard eating pastries.

"Senior sister really has leisure and elegance." Lin Fei truly admired these disciples who spend their days leisurely; don’t they want breakthroughs?

Hearing Lin Fei’s words, Yang Yuxiang spoke, "You can also have this leisure and elegance, but I see you probably won’t have the mood to sit here munching pastries and sipping tea."

Lin Fei chuckled, "Indeed, I don’t have senior sister’s strength."

At this moment, a voice came from another courtyard of Lin Fei’s, "I think even if you had the strength, you wouldn’t sit down to drink tea and eat pastries."

Lin Fei looked towards Li Qing’s courtyard and said, "Senior brother, I didn’t expect you to be here."

"Of course, I’m one who loves tea. By the way Lin Fei, constant cultivation hardly brings change, so I advise you to relax a bit."

"I would like to, but my strength obviously doesn’t allow me to relax." Lin Fei said, the issue of inadequate strength was evident, so Lin Fei couldn’t stop.

"Really? If that’s so, why don’t we go to the Book Pavilion and have a look?"

Upon hearing Li Qing’s words, Lin Fei’s eyes lit up, "The Book Pavilion? What kind of place is that?"

"A place where martial lunatics can relax; I think it suits you, given your intense nature." Li Qing said with a smile, setting down the tea in hand and standing up.

"Senior sister, care to join us?"

Li Qing looked in Yang Yuxiang’s direction.
