"The Strongest Martial Emperor in the City"!
After Emperor Yunshan left, Yang Qi immediately began to retreat to heal his injuries. Although his injuries in the previous battle with the Blood Demon Emperor and others were relatively light among everyone, his life source and soul were still damaged.
Yang Qi decided to recover from the injury of his soul first. After all, he had lost both of his shadow clones, and he had to condense the shadow clones and shadow seeds again, otherwise the dual virtual world would be unusable at all.
Next, Yang Qi began to practice the Source God Canon to recover from the injuries of his soul. Because of the blue-gray bead in his body, the speed at which his soul recovered was obviously much faster than usual. However, some of the origin in the blue-gray bead was also consumed.
It only took more than a month for Yang Qi's soul injury to completely recover. He immediately condensed a shadow clone, then continued to recover his soul, condensed a shadow seed, and then recovered his soul. In this way, it took nearly half a year to condense a shadow clone and a shadow seed again, and his soul was completely recovered.
"My soul has actually grown stronger. This can be considered a blessing in disguise." Feeling that his soul had become stronger than before, Yang Qi couldn't help but smile. For him, this was an unexpected gain.
After his soul's injury recovered, Yang Qi came out of seclusion immediately. However, Emperor Yunshan had not returned yet, so he had to go into seclusion again to recover his lost life source.
Wow~
Yang Qi moved his hand, and a green fruit appeared in his hand. This was a spiritual fruit that could restore the source of life. He asked someone to help buy it when he returned to Tielong City.
As for Yang Qi himself, he had never left the City Lord's Mansion. After all, the City Lord's Mansion was almost absolutely safe, but it was not necessarily the case in the city. There must be practitioners from the Immortal Temple in Tielong City. If he left the City Lord's Mansion, he might be ambushed and killed by the strong men of the Immortal Temple. Therefore, even when buying treasures for healing, he bought them through the guards of the City Lord's Mansion.
After swallowing the spiritual fruit in his hand, Yang Qi immediately began to refine it. However, after just a moment of refining, his brows furrowed, "Isn't the speed of restoring the origin of life too slow?"
The speed of refining the spiritual fruit to restore the origin of life is too slow. It cannot be compared with the speed of using the life core of the Blood Soul Worm Queen to restore the origin of life. Of course, the prices of the two are also very different.
Moreover, the most valuable part of the Blood Soul Worm Queen's life core is not restoring the source of life, but improving the level of life. It is a waste to use it to restore the source of life.
In fact, Yang Qi knew this, so he did not use the life core to restore the source of life, but chose to buy treasures to restore the source of life. However, the effect was really disappointing to him. It was like a practitioner who was used to using top-grade Taoist weapons, and suddenly switched to low-grade Taoist weapons, he would definitely feel uncomfortable and disappointed.
However, Yang Qi also knew that the spiritual fruit he bought was actually quite effective in restoring the source of life. If it were replaced with other treasures that could restore the source of life, the effect would probably be even worse.
Shaking his head, Yang Qi stopped worrying about it and continued to refine the medicinal power of the spirit fruit to restore his own life essence. In fact, Yang Qi's life essence was not too much lost. When he used his life core to save his life, he had already restored part of the lost life essence. Therefore, although the speed of the spirit fruit to restore the life essence was not too fast, Yang Qi still quickly restored the lost life essence.
After his injuries were completely healed, Yang Qi immediately began to absorb the Blood Soul Gem. When he absorbed the Blood Soul Gem in Iron Dragon City, the blood evil power in the Blood Soul Gem was significantly weakened. Yang Qi absorbed several Blood Soul Gems in succession, and when the blood evil power in his body accumulated to a certain level, he stopped and began to circulate the Source God Scripture to dissolve the blood evil power.
As time passed, when Yang Qi completely eliminated the blood evil power in his body, his body and soul almost reached the limit of a three-star Martial Emperor. Yang Qi also ended his retreat. At this time, he had been in Tielong City for nearly two years.
As soon as Yang Qi came out of retreat, the Five-Star Martial Emperor guarding outside the palace quickly said, "Brother Xuxing, the city lord has returned. He asked you to go see him after you finish healing."
"Senior Yunshan is back?"
Yang Qi was stunned. The last time he came out of seclusion was more than a year ago. At that time, Emperor Yunshan had not returned yet. Now, more than a year has passed, and Emperor Yunshan has finally returned.
"The city lord returned half a year ago." said the five-star Martial Emperor.
Half a year ago
Yang Qi was stunned. Calculating the time, that was the last time for him to recover his life source.
If he came out of seclusion immediately after his life source was restored, he could directly meet the returning Emperor Yunshan. However, he then chose to absorb the Blood Soul Jade to strengthen his soul, so he did not come out until now.
Although it took about half a year, Yang Qi did not regret it. After all, during this period of time, he had almost pushed his soul and body to the limit of a three-star Martial Emperor, and his strength was much stronger than before.
Under the guidance of the five-star martial emperor, Yang Qi came to a hall and met Emperor Yunshan, who had received the news that he had come out of seclusion.
Emperor Yunshan looked at Yang Qi who had arrived, a gleam of brilliance flashed in the depths of his eyes, and he chuckled and said, "It seems that you have been doing more than just healing in the past two years."
With Emperor Yunshan's cultivation and realm, he could naturally see that Yang Qi was obviously much stronger than when he first came to the City Lord's Mansion.
“The life-and-death battle at that time brought me some gains. Coupled with some opportunities I got in the Blood Soul Sea, I was able to improve myself.” Yang Qi said modestly.
"You don't have to be too modest. I am also aware of the speed of your lineage's cultivation." Emperor Yunshan smiled slightly, and then spoke again, "This time I asked you to come here, but I have something to give you."
Whoosh~
As he spoke, Emperor Yunshan moved his hand, and a storage ring fell into Yang Qi's hand.
Looking at the storage ring in his hand, Yang Qi was stunned. The storage ring did not show any signs of recognizing its owner. He just checked it briefly and found that there were valuable cultivation resources in the storage ring, and most of them were cultivation resources that were helpful to the mid-level Martial Emperor.
"Senior, this is too precious. I cannot accept it." Yang Qi said quickly.
"You don't think this is given to you by me, do you? Although I have some accumulation, I can't give you such a big gift." Emperor Yunshan glanced at Yang Qi and continued, "This is the reward from the nine major cultivation forces for your defeat of the Immortal Temple's conspiracy in the Jedi this time. I am just helping you make the decision and exchanging it for cultivation resources that are helpful to the mid-level martial emperor."
Hearing this, Yang Qi's face suddenly showed a hint of embarrassment. When he first got the storage ring, he indeed thought that these resources were given to him by Emperor Yunshan, and never thought that they were rewards given to him by the nine major cultivation forces.
