Press this crystallization of vitality and origin into Li Zhong’s chest.
A trace of essence dissipated in his body.
The exhausted body sensed the sweet spring and desperately sucked in nutrients to make up for the loss.
Li Zhong, who had originally frowned as if he was in a nightmare, gradually relaxed his brows and felt an indescribable sense of comfort and satisfaction throughout his body.
Zhang Shen pushed open the door and saw Li Zhao and Li Wu sitting cross-legged on both sides.
The two of them guarded here for more than two hours.
"Go prepare some food, he'll need it when he wakes up."
"In about three to four days, he will be able to return to his original state without any aftereffects."
Li Zhao and Li Wu were overjoyed.
In fact, Zhang Shen was still modest. Li Zhong experienced the opportunity of squeezing his potential, and he made up for the lost vitality and origin. This rare experience will become Li Zhong's nourishment after he recovers.
As expected, Li Zhong's innate path has been smooth sailing.
However, after a while, Zhang Shen, who was meditating, smelled a burnt smell.
Um
Zhang Shen suddenly realized the blind spot.
He seemed to have asked Li Zhao and his sister to prepare food...
Could it be that they can’t even cook
Sure enough, when Zhang Shen went over to take a look, the two were already covered in dust and dirt.
Two people who could easily beat ordinary strong men with a hammer were actually stumped by a meal.
The two little guys, Li Zhao and Li Wu, were a little embarrassed because cooking was not one of the things they had learned since childhood.
So, when they cast their expectant eyes towards Zhang Shen, Zhang Shen felt that it was his turn to show his abilities.
"Forget it, just clean yourselves up and I'll go buy the food."
Cooking? It was impossible for him to cook, as Zhang Shen had never learned how to do it.
He himself no longer needed to eat, but Li Zhong, Li Zhao and Li Wu needed to eat.
The reason why they don't go out to buy is simple.
Given the current situation of the Li family and the existence of forces like the Four Tigers Gang, Li Zhao and Li Wu had no doubt that they would be torn to pieces once they left the Li Mansion.
Li Zhong woke up much earlier than Zhang Shen expected.
This man's willpower is truly extraordinary.
As soon as he woke up, Li Zhong noticed something wrong with his body. The constant feeling of weakness disappeared, replaced by waves of numbness and soreness.
Although my health is still not good, it is much better than before.
Li Zhong quickly learned the whole story from Li Zhao.
"Thank you very much, senior, for saving my life." Li Zhong was extremely grateful. At the same time, he was moved beyond words that Li Zhao gave Li family's treasures in exchange for his life.
"You're welcome. It's just a deal." Zhang Shen didn't feel too much. When Li Zhao didn't abandon Li Zhong, he gave up recruiting Li Zhong. That trace of regret could not stay in Zhang Shen's heart for long.
After giving a few simple instructions, Zhang Shen left. He had no interest in listening to these three people expressing their deep affection for each other.
Zhang Shen randomly found a room, took out a cushion and sat cross-legged on it.
He opened the wooden box he got from Li Zhao and was very interested in the book and token inside.
After flipping through it, I found that this tattered book only recorded some of the Li family's difficult experiences in their early years and the martial arts they initially acquired.
It's quite commemorative, but it's not worth much.
"Interesting, you want to collect something with heritage significance like this?"
Neither in the river nor in the river.
A guess came to his mind, and Zhang Shen transferred his Thousand Mountains Qi into the broken book.
Sure enough, the original text on some of the chapters in the torn book disappeared, and some new things appeared.
Described above
What they revealed were some secrets of Master Li Yan.
"In the spring, I went out for training and accidentally found a seriously injured old man in the mountains. For the sake of caution, I did not go up to disturb him."
"In autumn, I passed by the mountain several times and found the old man was still there. I still didn't go up to disturb him. My father said that people should be cautious in life."
"In winter, I passed by again and the old man called me over. I subconsciously prepared to run, but a terrifying aura enveloped me. I realized that this was indeed not an ordinary old man, but a terrifying strong man. Fortunately, I had no bad intentions before."
"When winter passed and spring came, the old man accepted me as his disciple and taught me advanced skills and martial arts. I could tell at a glance that this skill and martial arts was a hundred times stronger than the family martial arts."
"I was overjoyed, but my master wouldn't allow me to show off my martial arts skills easily. I realized that my master was hiding a huge secret."
Zhang Shenfei read it quickly. This book was almost Li Yan's diary, recording the important moments in his life.
"I have received the true teachings from my master and have become the best master in my family in just 30 years. But I am worried."
"The master finally told me his origins some time ago."
"A direct disciple of the Wanshan Sect. After the sect was destroyed, he fled here with the sect's last legacy."
"I don't know what the Wanshan Sect is or where it is. I only know from my master that it is a sect that once had a demigod."
"Demigod, a realm that is highly desired. It's a pity that this sect has disappeared over the years."
"Master told me to keep a low profile. Wanshan Sect still has some enemies tracking them, and those who covet the inheritance of Wanshan Sect will not let them go."
"It's been a constant source of anxiety for me."
"In the fiftieth year, the master passed away. He was seriously injured. Even a True Dan expert couldn't heal the injury."
"I heard from Master that he was found and severely injured by the former enemy of Wanshan Sect. One day, I will avenge Master!"
Li Yan's ambition can be seen between the lines, but unfortunately he was unable to achieve this goal.
Zhang Shen continued to flip backwards.
"Thirty years after my master passed away, I finally broke through to the True Dan realm! I became the first True Dan master in my family!"
"There is no doubt that the Li family will reach unprecedented heights under my leadership!"
"But I still need to remember that the enemies of Wanshan Sect are still looking for remnants like us, so I have to keep a low profile."
The following is a long section about the Li family's expansion history, full of vigor and vitality.
Until the end, Zhang Shen saw some interesting records.
"It has been one hundred and fifty years. Ever since I broke through to the True Dan level, my cultivation has been progressing slowly, and I have not yet broken through to the True Dan level four."
"I realized that with this rate of progress, I will never be able to break through to the Dharma Realm until I die. I need to change!"
"One of the reasons that has slowed down my cultivation speed is resources. After breaking through to the True Dan stage, I have been short of resources, and my master's legacy is not enough to support my cultivation after the True Dan stage."
"This reminds me of the purpose of Master's coming here. Before the Wanshan Sect was destroyed, it left secret treasures in various places as a resource for its future comeback."
"And at the edge of the endless wilderness, there is a secret treasure of the sect!"
"I have to get it in my hands!"
"Based on Master's description, this secret treasure is enough for me to practice during the Dharma-phase period."
This is the last record in the book, and there is no further information after that.
Did they forget to write this later, or did Li Yan disappear after this
Zhang Shen found it quite strange. If Li Yan was killed, how could the Li family still exist? Although the situation was not very good, the Li family was not affected by Li Yan.
"Or did Li Yan die while exploring the secret treasure?" Zhang Shen's eyes became profound.
Yes, he was interested in the secret place in the book.
thought.
He has now begun to feel the dilemma of insufficient resources.
A secret treasure on the edge of the endless wilderness, it deserves to be his!
But Li Yan's previous experience was a lesson for him, so he had to think more about it.
After putting away the torn notebook, Zhang Shen picked up the token placed aside.
"This is actually one of the inheritances of the Wanshan Sect. It contains a technique that can directly reach the ninth level of the Dharma Realm."
Zhang Shen couldn't help but feel amazed and delighted, as this martial art happened to be "Thousand Mountains".
After transferring his true Qi into it, Zhang Shen could only see the innate part of the exercises, as well as descriptions and insights of some obstacles in breaking through the true elixir.
Obviously, without the corresponding cultivation level, it is impossible to see the subsequent exercises.
"Master Li Yan actually put such an important thing together with his private diary? He actually didn't carry it with him?"
"Strange, strange." Zhang Shen said strange twice.
It couldn't be that he sensed danger and left something behind for the family just in case
Moreover, Zhang Shen felt that the function of this inherited item was more than what was recorded in Li Yan's diary.
They are all good stuff. Zhang Shen carefully arranged their places in the storage bag.
"I thought I could get one or two innate secret manuals, but who would have thought it would be such a huge gain."
To put it bluntly, Li Zhong's life is not worth even one tenth of these two things.
However, if this thing remains in Li Zhao's hands, she won't be able to use it.
Zhang Shen spied on the cultivation methods of Li Zhao, Li Wu, and Li Zhong, and found traces of Qianchongshan. It can be seen that Li Yan improved the Li family's cultivation method based on Qianchongshan's method, but the difference between the two is still obvious.
Without the internal strength, true energy, or magic power cultivated in Qianchongshan, it is impossible to see the true face of these two.
"The relics of Master Li Yan, plus these two things."
Zhang Shen touched his chin and said, "It seems that we need to take care of those two little guys."
If Li Zhao and Li Wu disgusted him, he would definitely turn his back on them. Even if they gained a lot of benefits, he would not feel any psychological pressure.
But Li Zhao and Li Wu were very tactful, and he admired such people very much.
"Come in, no need to linger outside the door." Zhang Shen said suddenly.
"Creaky." Li Zhao pushed the door open nervously and walked in.
Zhang Shen was somewhat amused and curious, "I thought it would be Li Zhong who came, but it turned out to be you."
Zhang Shen was not surprised that someone came to see him.
He suddenly appeared and saved Li Zhao and the other two from danger. Anyone would want to come over and have a deep conversation with him and ask the reason.
"Uncle Zhong wanted to come here in person, but I talked him out of it."
Li Zhao said.
Zhang Shen nodded. "So, why did you come to me on your own? What do you want to talk to me about?"
As he spoke, Zhang Shen took out another cushion and motioned Li Zhao to sit opposite him.
Li Zhao knelt down and asked, "May I ask, Senior, do you have any history with my Li family?"
The Li family's assets had long been divided up by the forces of Black Iron City. There were only some innate warrior inheritances in the old house, but these were not worth a help from a strong man like Zhang Shen. Apart from the old ones, Li Zhao could not think of any other possibilities.
Poor little guy, he never experienced the family’s peak period and never thought about it that way.
“It can be said that there is some connection.”
Zhang Shen did not give any specific details as it would be too troublesome to explain.
"If you want me to help your Li family get revenge, for the sake of our origin, I can help you and your sister clear out the enemies in Black Iron City."
Without a True Dan-level strongman, no one in Black Iron City can resist Zhang Shen.
However, Li Zhao shook his head, "Senior, if possible, I just want to seek your protection!"
