When Dongfang Caiyi heard Mei Ruoxiang's words, her expression instantly became a little confused, and she said, "Grandma Mei, since the loss was so heavy, why do you look a little happy?"
Dongfang Caiyi has become more emotional now than before. Although Ye Li's death has caused her to close her inner world again, she expresses more emotions when facing Mei Ruoxiang and others than before.
Mei Ruoxiang reached out and gently touched Dongfang Caiyi's head, saying, "Little Caiyi, the reason I'm so happy is because I brought back good news. I think you will laugh after hearing it."
Hearing Mei Ruoxiang's words, Dongfang Caiyi shook her head and said, "I won't laugh anymore. I can no longer feel happy in my heart."
Having said this, she once again thought of the person who threw her high into the air and left her with life.
Waves of pain spread from Dongfang Caiyi's heart, and her eyes began to feel sore.
Hearing Dongfang Caiyi's words, Mei Ruoxiang showed a trace of heartache on her face, but then she smiled and said, "Xiao Caiyi, your Xiao Ye Li is not dead, he is still alive."
After Dongfang Caiyi heard Mei Ruoxiang's words, she was stunned for three breaths, and then she seemed to react, with an expression of extreme shock on her pretty face.
The strong wall that blocked her heart seemed to be shattered just by these words.
“He… he’s still alive
He’s still alive…!!!”
At this moment, the emotions in Dongfang Caiyi's heart suddenly burst out, turning into a torrent that broke through all restraints and rushed through her body.
Unable to control herself, Dongfang Caiyi's eyes turned red and tears flowed out uncontrollably.
But deep in her pupils, Mei Ruoxiang could clearly see waves of excitement and joy. Even the corners of Dongfang Caiyi's mouth unconsciously raised up. She was smiling.
"Yes, Caiyi, he is indeed still alive. He personally delivered a message back earlier, saying that he is waiting at home. Your Grandpa Qi and his friends have already gone there. I don't know if we can see him."
When Mei Ruoxiang saw the tears on Dongfang Caiyi's face, she knew that they came from joy, and she naturally felt extremely happy in her heart.
Hearing Mei Ruoxiang's words, Dongfang Caiyi's emotions continued to ferment, hitting her chest in waves.
After taking a deep breath, Dongfang Caiyi suppressed her emotions. She reached out to wipe away the tears from her eyes and said, "I understand, Grandma Mei. It's great that he survived."
Mei Ruoxiang nodded and said, "Well, it's a good thing for our Imperial City that he survived. A disciple with extraordinary potential will be valued by any force."
After Mei Ruoxiang told Dongfang Caiyi that Ye Li was still alive, Dongfang Caiyi's sealed heart opened up again.
After three years, being able to hear news about Ye Li again was like a dream to her.
Of course, she wouldn't mind having more such sweet dreams.
… … …
Time flies. More than four months have passed since Qi Wei went to Shanhai County to look for Ye Li, and Ye Li has been in the Zhoushi Gourd for nearly five months.
During these five months, his body was enveloped in the energy of life at all times, and his cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds.
From the outside, it seemed like nearly five months, but Ye Li actually stayed in the gourd for nearly five years.
If it weren't for the fact that Ye Li had three souls, Tunri, Linglong and Qingzhou, in his body, who could talk to him and keep him company, the nearly five years of solitary practice would have surely driven him crazy.
Although five years of seclusion was difficult, the effect was enormous. With the help of Linglong, Ye Li was able to completely imprint the three original runes of fire, thunder and wood on his elixir in just two years.
During the remaining three years, Ye Li's two complete lines of gold and soul talismans were also completely imprinted on his magic pill.
As for the other five elements, except for the wind origin rune which has only four characters, the rest of the attributes all have five characters engraved on the magic pill.
The reason why only five were engraved was because Ye Li knew that he did not have enough time to practice here, so he only engraved five talismans first and the rest could be improved slowly later.
Anyway, just as Tunri said, he first engraved more than three symbols for each attribute on the magic pill, which was equivalent to seizing the initiative, and it would be much easier to add symbols later.
When Ye Li had imprinted the three complete runes, he had already reached the peak of the Concentration Stage. However, in order to lay a solid foundation, Ye Li suppressed his realm. It was not until the end of the fifth year that he planned to break through.
The gourd is filled with life energy at all times. Ye Li’s magic pill has already absorbed it to saturation, but after he continues to engrave the origin runes, the power within the magic pill is constantly fluctuating and the capacity is constantly growing.
As a result, Ye Li continued to accumulate three years of strength in the divine pill. His divine pill was now as big as a rice bucket and was suspended above Linglong's head.
Linglong's body became more and more solid, and it seemed that it was about to change from an illusory state to a completely solid state.
After Ye Li engraved all the attribute symbols on his magic pill, he clearly felt the change in his strength.
His ability to control spiritual energy of various attributes has become stronger. Now he can use spiritual energy of nine attributes and draw the Nine-Colored Divine Armor Talisman at the same time.
His most powerful defensive spell instantly became even stronger, with its defensive power nearly doubled than before.
Based on Ye Li's perception, he estimated that the defensive ability of the Nine-Colored Divine Armor should be able to block some attacks from the early stage of the Concentration Period.
During these five years, Ye Li's secret method of body casting has also been improved. The engraving of the magic pill has also allowed Ye Li to make a significant breakthrough in casting instruments. His realm has approached the heavenly level and he is about to break through to the heavenly level.
As for the body-casting secret technique, with the complete properties of those runes, he was already able to draw out a top-grade earth-level body-casting secret technique, which was terrifyingly powerful.
Ye Li felt that with the support of the upper-grade Earth-level Fire Casting State, he would not appear to be too exhausted in a battle with a master in the early stage of the Concentration Stage.
The change in strength made Ye Li feel full of satisfaction. After thinking about it, Ye Li decided to break through to the Concentration Stage before leaving.
The spiritual energy accumulated in his magic pill at this time has already reached the requirement for breaking through the realm, and the engraving on the magic pill has also done the best it can do at present, so after he adjusts his state, he can directly break through to the concentration stage.
