Chapter 63

As the clear water entered his eyes, Luo Li felt an incredible sense of refreshment, his eyes becoming extremely comfortable, and his whole body felt relaxed.

Then, it felt as if his entire body was immersed in the clear water. In that water, Luo Li experienced a warm and cozy feeling, as if he had returned to the fetal stage, lying in his mother's womb, feeling an incomparable peace and comfort, an unparalleled ease.

It was a pure sense of comfort and satisfaction, as if he were basking in the sunlight, soaking in warm water, or enjoying a gentle breeze and the fragrance of flowers. All the most beautiful experiences he had ever had seemed to be amplified a thousand times, flooding his entire body in an instant.

After a long while, Luo Li opened his eyes and was surprised to find that all his wounds had healed, leaving no trace of injury. His body felt incredibly light, and he had returned to the state he was in when he first entered the Lingdie Sect, neither too tall nor too short, with a very clear and refined appearance. The signs of his body becoming increasingly large and heavy after cultivating the Black Dragon Body had completely disappeared.

It was as if an invisible cage had been lifted from Luo Li, and he had been completely reborn!

Fairy Ruo Tong smiled and looked at Luo Li. Luo Li stood up, looked at his body, and knew that the strange changes in his body were all due to Fairy Ruo Tong. He couldn't help but bow and said gratefully, "Thank you, Senior!"

Fairy Ruo Tong shook her head and said, "You defeated my four major puppet avatars, and this is the reward you deserve."

Luo Li said, "That clear water?"

Fairy Ruo Tong nodded and said, "It is the Yellow-grade middle-grade heavenly spirit object, Jade Marrow Heavenly Water, which is produced within spirit jade and takes ten thousand years to form. It has an excellent effect on purifying the body and refining the meridians. I obtained seven portions during my exploration of the Jingyu Sect's cave, and I am rewarding you with one portion!"

Heavenly spirit objects are invaluable, and the Lingdie Sect doesn't have many. Even if they do, they are the exclusive treasures of the Golden Core cultivators. It would be extremely difficult for her to obtain such a treasure, and she must have gone through countless battles to get it. To give it to him so casually was a huge favor and a great kindness!

Luo Li couldn't help but bow again and said, "Thank you, Senior!"

Fairy Ruo Tong looked at Luo Li and smiled, saying, "The Lingdie Sect is too small-minded; it cannot contain you. Sooner or later, you will leave here.

After a year, it seems you have cultivated the Black Dragon Dao of the Black Dragon Sect. However, your forced absorption of others' Black Dragon blood has left your Black Dragon Body full of flaws and hidden dangers. In three years, you will collapse and die.

So I tested you with the puppet battle. After you passed the test, I rewarded you with a portion of Jade Marrow Heavenly Water to repair the hidden dangers in your body. I hope your path to immortality can be longer!"

Luo Li said with deep gratitude, "What virtue or ability do I have to receive such great kindness from you, Senior! I have no way to repay you, and I am eternally grateful!"

Fairy Ruo Tong shook her head and said, "In the vast sea of people, you can see me, and I can see you; this is fate!

You don't need to thank me. When you become strong, and you see a weaker junior, if the time is right, you can help them just as I helped you. By giving them a chance, you are thanking me.

If you are a waste and can't even defeat a puppet, then you will die, and that's it!"

With that, she stretched out her hand, and countless fibers were extracted from the surrounding trees and flowers. These fibers fell onto Luo Li's damaged robe, and it was instantly restored, without a single trace of damage.

Fairy Ruo Tong continued, "Alright, go to the Ziyang Mountain Hall quickly. They are all waiting for you. Remember, don't let anyone know you know me, or they won't treat you well!"

As she spoke, her figure began to dissipate, turning into countless rays of light that scattered in all directions!

Luo Li stood there, at a loss for words. The other party had transformed his body, eliminated the hidden dangers, and saved his life. Such a great kindness cannot be expressed in words, but he didn't even know the woman's name!

He could only bow to the void and say, "Thank you, Senior! You have given me a chance, and if I become strong in the future and see a weaker junior, I will give them a chance as well. I swear, I will never forget this!"

Since cultivating, Luo Li had seen the coldness of the cultivation world. A single careless word from Luo Feng had ended his future, Luo Ming, carrying spirit stones, had disappeared, and Luo Xin, after a moment of affection, had turned her back on him. The extremely kind-looking Master Xiyi was always trying to seize his body. It could be said that the world was cold, and one wrong step could lead to eternal ruin!

However, in this cultivation world, it wasn't all like that. There were also seniors like this woman, who could casually give away heavenly spirit objects and give him a chance, saving his life! There are still good people in this world!

Luo Li shook his head and continued forward, arriving at Ziyang Mountain. It was bustling with activity, and from a distance, he could see drums and gongs being played to welcome the honored guests. The woman had already entered the Lingdie Sect's main hall, surrounded by a crowd.

Luo Li continued forward and finally reached the hall. He was immediately led inside. After all, he represented the Kongyuan lineage. He slowly entered the hall, and the necessary ceremonies were already over. The main topic had already begun, and there were only eight or nine cultivators sitting there, chatting idly.

From a distance, he could see that of the nine Golden Core cultivators of the Lingdie Sect, six were present, excluding Master Xiyi and the two who were in seclusion. They were seated as host and guest, chatting and laughing, while the many subordinates around the woman had vanished, as if they had never appeared.

When Luo Li arrived, not a single Golden Core cultivator looked at him, completely ignoring him. In the farthest corner, there was a chair labeled "Kongyuan Peak." Luo Li quietly walked over and sat down. There were two other cultivators nearby, both at the Foundation Establishment stage. They were the peak masters of the Hunqiao and Jianqiao lineages, which were already in name only, just like Luo Li, there to make up the numbers.

At this point, the sect leader Fang Ruolei said, "Thank you, Fairy Ruo Tong, for visiting our Lingdie Sect. Our sect is truly honored by your presence!"

Luo Li nodded secretly, firmly remembering the name "Ruo Tong Fairy"!

Fairy Ruo Tong smiled and said, "Sect Leader Fang, you are too kind. I have actually come to the Lingdie Sect for a reason!"

Fang Ruolei said, "Fairy, you are too kind. If you have any matters, please let us know!"

Fairy Ruo Tong said, "I have heard that the Lingdie Sect has countless colorful butterflies. My Life Forest needs some spirit butterflies to fill its branches. I would like to exchange some spirit butterflies from your sect!"

Fang Ruolei nodded and said, "The Lingdie Sect may not have much else, but we do have some spirit butterflies. What kind of spirit butterflies do you need, Fairy?"

Fairy Ruo Tong said, "I need twelve Rebirth Zhuang Zhou Butterflies, two Time Pattern Splitting Sword Butterflies, seven Quasi-Questioning Heart Butterflies, two Three Realms Crystal Butterflies, and six Empty Cicada Holy Soul Butterflies! I wonder if Sect Leader Fang can part with them.

Rest assured, I will exchange them for something. I have Zhuang Zhou Dream Butterfly Pills, one pill for one spirit butterfly. If you are not interested in my Zhuang Zhou Dream Butterfly Pills, I also have the Achi Po Yuan Pill, the Nine Nether Reincarnation Pill, and the Yang Sui Child Pill, all one pill for one spirit butterfly!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other. Among them, Real Person Hanhai stood up and said, "I have the Quasi-Questioning Heart Butterflies. Please accept them, Fairy. I would like to exchange for four Zhuang Zhou Dream Butterfly Pills. Additionally, I would like one of each of the other pills!"

Saying this, he took out a spirit storage bag containing seven Quasi-Questioning Heart Butterflies and handed it over.

Fairy Ruo Tong took out seven pills from her storage bag. These pills were semi-transparent, with a purple-green color, and it seemed as if a colorful butterfly was about to break out of the pill.

Upon receiving the pills, Real Person Hanhai nodded repeatedly, saying, "Good pills, good pills, indeed Zhuang Zhou Dream Butterfly Pills, a great achievement in the Dao!"

Among the other three pills, one seemed to contain water, with a golden-haired ape playing in it, causing waves. Another pill was a bright red, containing a blazing fire, which was extremely hot, and from the fire, a clear chirping could be heard, as a bright red strange bird flew around. The last pill was green, containing a spiral cycle with a sense of endless darkness.

Seeing the exchange begin, Real Person Mingxiang also stood up and said, "I also have the Rebirth Zhuang Zhou Butterflies! I will exchange them all for Zhuang Zhou Dream Butterfly Pills!"

Saying this, she began the exchange. Real Person Shengwei, watching enviously, was frustrated because the other three types of spirit butterflies had already gone extinct, and the unique Seven Stars Nine Heavens Butterfly of Tiangaofeng was not on the list. He could only be anxious.

After exchanging the two types of spirit butterflies, Fairy Ruo Tong hesitated and said, "I wonder if your sect is unwilling to exchange the Time Pattern Splitting Sword Butterflies, the Three Realms Crystal Butterflies, and the Empty Cicada Holy Soul Butterflies?

Although my Zhuang Zhou Dream Butterfly Pills are not precious, I believe no other sect except the Hunyuan Sect has this spirit medicine!"

Hunyuan Sect, Luo Li was taken aback. He had heard of this sect countless times. The Shenwei Sect's destruction was led by the Hunyuan Sect. He never expected that Fairy Ruo Tong was a disciple of the Hunyuan Sect!

Fang Ruolei sighed and said, "It's not that we don't want to. These three types of spirit butterflies in our sect have already gone extinct!"

Fairy Ruo Tong was surprised and said, "Really? How is that possible!"

Fang Ruolei said, "Alas, that's the case. The Time Pattern Splitting Sword Butterflies went extinct six thousand years ago, the Empty Cicada Holy Soul Butterflies went extinct three thousand years ago, and now the Three Realms Crystal Butterflies have also gone extinct. We would like to exchange, but unfortunately, we have nothing to offer!"

Fairy Ruo Tong frowned and said, "I see. Then I apologize. If that's the case, we won't exchange!"

Saying this, she took out a box of pills and handed it to Sect Leader Fang Ruolei, saying, "These are twelve Zhuang Zhou Dream Butterfly Pills. I originally intended to keep them for the exchange, but now it seems unnecessary. Consider them a gift to the Lingdie Sect!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Ruolei, Shengwei, and the others were all delighted, not expecting such a benefit.

Fang Ruolei said politely, "This, this is too much!"

Fairy Ruo Tong said, "It's nothing. Actually, I have a favor to ask. Recently, I fought seven Golden Core cultivators in the outer sea cave and gained some insights, breaking through my bottleneck. I am about to advance to the Golden Core stage.

However, my sect is too far away, and the journey back would take too long, possibly delaying my cultivation. I have heard that your sect has a blessed land called Ziyang Cliff. I would like to borrow this blessed land for cultivation. I wonder if your sect agrees?"

Luo Li's heart stirred. The butterfly exchange and the visit were probably just pretenses. Fairy Ruo Tong's true purpose was likely the Ziyang Cliff of the Lingdie Sect.

Upon hearing this, Fang Ruolei and the others were even more delighted. If Fairy Ruo Tong were to form her Golden Core in the Lingdie Sect, it would be a great blessing. When a Foundation Establishment cultivator advances to the Golden Core stage, it brings a significant change in the elemental energy of the heavens and earth. After the formation of the Golden Core, the place where it was formed becomes more conducive to cultivation, with more abundant spiritual energy.

Moreover, observing the formation of the Golden Core from a distance would allow them to learn a lot and form good relationships with the senior disciples, bringing countless benefits, like a pie falling from the sky.

Fang Ruolei immediately said, "Of course, of course! Fairy, rest assured, the Lingdie Sect will mobilize all its resources to protect you. If you have any requirements, just let us know.

By the way, although our three major spirit butterflies are gone, we still have some similar variants. Although they are not as powerful as the original spirit butterflies, they are still quite good. I will collect them for you, Fairy, please accept them!"
