Chapter 41: Blazing Sun Golden Pupils, Piercing Through Illusion, and X-ray Vision?

The scene fell silent for a moment!

Luo Li hadn't expected this sudden turn of events.

Wei Qingyan hadn't expected it either.

Even Li Xuanfeng himself hadn't seen it coming!

Who could have known that Xu Miaozhen would Breakthrough to the Core Formation Realm at this exact moment, triggering a ten-fold return for him?

It felt as if Li Xuanfeng had intentionally slapped Luo Li in the face.

"Junior Brother, how… how did you do that?"

Luo Li didn't care about the slight, however; instead, her beautiful eyes sized Li Xuanfeng up with curiosity.

She even wanted to reach out and feel Li Xuanfeng's bone structure to investigate this bizarre phenomenon, but she ultimately restrained herself.

Luo Li's strength was far above Li Xuanfeng's, and with her powerful Divine Sense, his Realm could not be hidden from her.

She was one hundred percent certain that just moments ago, Li Xuanfeng was only at the third level of the Core Formation Realm.

It was only after she finished speaking that he broke through to the fourth level!

But how did Li Xuanfeng do it?

Whenever a Core Formation Realm Cultivator breaks through, they typically absorb a massive amount of surrounding spiritual energy or drain a pile of Spirit Stones dry!

Li Xuanfeng was different; it was as if a certain power hidden within his body was suddenly guided out, leading to his Breakthrough.

This phenomenon was similar to a Physique Awakening.

But his Physique had already awakened!

Therefore, Luo Li was very curious about how exactly he had achieved this Breakthrough!

"I'm not sure. Perhaps… my Physique hadn't fully awakened before?"

Li Xuanfeng put on a look of confusion, as if he were just as clueless as she was.

He truly hadn't been mentally prepared for Xu Miaozhen to suddenly Breakthrough at this time.

However, considering Xu Miaozhen possessed the Great Desolate War Body and was already at the Peak of the ninth level of the Spirit Sea Realm…

It wasn't surprising for her to Breakthrough to the Core Formation Realm at any moment.

"Physique not fully awakened?"

Luo Li fell into deep thought. Was there such a thing?

Although she was knowledgeable and well-read, and had seen many things in ancient texts even if she hadn't witnessed them personally…

The idea of a Physique Awakening after being obscured was not a major secret.

But an incomplete Awakening followed by a second Awakening was something she was seeing for the first time.

"The world is vast, and there is still much I do not know. It wouldn't be strange for such a thing to exist!"

Luo Li thought to herself, quickly accepting the explanation.

"Junior Brother, you should put these Spirit Stones away!"

Luo Li looked at Li Xuanfeng again.

Regardless of the circumstances, this was a meeting gift left by their Master for her Disciples; Luo Li was determined not to accept it.

Li Xuanfeng glanced at Wei Qingyan.

Wei Qingyan hurriedly shook her head like a rattle.

Even though Li Xuanfeng had mentioned wanting to invest in her, the resources he was offering were simply too much.

The resources she already had were enough for her to Cultivate for a long time.

Li Xuanfeng had no choice but to put the Spirit Stones away.

He could only say that his Senior Sister and Junior Sister were both good girls.

If he had encountered gold-diggers, Li Xuanfeng wouldn't have to go through all this trouble; he could just shower them with gifts and farm a massive amount of resources in return.

"Besides the Spirit Stones, Master prepared other things for you both."

Luo Li opened her fair hand, and two Jade Slips appeared in her palm.

These items looked very familiar to Li Xuanfeng.

Luo Li had previously crushed a similar Jade Slip to summon Lian Yuezhou's Incarnation.

"These Jade Slips contain a trace of Master's Divine Sense imprint. By crushing them, you can summon Master's Incarnation!"

"These Jade Slips are extremely difficult to refine and are limited in number, so do not use them lightly unless it is absolutely necessary!"

The two Jade Slips flew into the hands of Li Xuanfeng and Wei Qingyan respectively.

"Junior Brother, don't even think about giving this to someone else. This is a life-saving trump card."

Luo Li couldn't help but remind him.

She was afraid Li Xuanfeng would turn around and give the Jade Slip away.

"Do you really take me for some Wealth-Distributing Boy?"

"I choose who I give things to. Even if I were to give away good things, I would certainly give them to you!"

Li Xuanfeng calmly put away the Jade Slip.

Seeing that he spoke casually yet didn't seem to be lying, a slight smile curled on Luo Li's lips.

Her shimmering eyes watched her Junior Brother, her thoughts unknown.

Li Xuanfeng was not a person of selfless charity; he gave resources naturally to obtain returns.

His gifting was limited only to his bound targets.

These Jade Slips were refined by Lian Yuezhou herself, and since Luo Li and Wei Qingyan already had theirs, they would surely refuse if he tried to give them his.

If he gave it to Xu Miaozhen, she probably wouldn't want it either.

After all, this Jade Slip summoned Lian Yuezhou's Incarnation; if the Incarnation discovered the summoner wasn't her Disciple, she most likely wouldn't take action.

"Master also left two special items for you!"

Two orbs of light flew out from Luo Li's storage ring.

One emitted a faint golden glow, while the other emitted a faint black glow.

Both appeared to have no physical form, seeming like pure sources of light with various runes flowing within them.

"These are two types of Secret Art Origins, created by Master by combining special energy with Secret Art runes!"

"Simply put, they allow you to directly Master a Secret Art!"

"This golden orb is called the Blazing Sun Golden Bone Origin; the black one is called the Profound Yin Black Pupil Origin!"

As Luo Li explained, the golden Origin flew to Li Xuanfeng, and the black Origin flew to Wei Qingyan.

"These two Secret Art Origins have extremely high requirements for one's Physique. Master had never found suitable candidates before, but now she finds you both very appropriate."

"Next, I will teach you the incantations. You can Cultivate here, and I will act as your Protector!"

Luo Li said.

She then transmitted the incantation to Wei Qingyan.

[Ding! Wei Qingyan has learned the refining incantation for the Profound Yin Black Pupil Secret Art Origin. Ten-fold return triggered: You have learned the incantation and achieved full mastery!]

Although the System prompt sounded, Li Xuanfeng felt it wasn't very useful.

According to the incantation, this Secret Art was only suitable for female Cultivators.

"The Profound Yin Black Pupil can see through illusions and also spot an enemy's weaknesses. In short, it has many benefits for you!"

"Furthermore, as your cultivation level rises, the Profound Yin Black Pupil will also become stronger!"

Luo Li explained to Wei Qingyan.

The latter nodded and sat cross-legged on the spot, the black orb of light sinking directly into the space between her brows.

"This Blazing Sun Golden Bone can strengthen bone density. Junior Brother, you already possess a top-tier Physique; with the addition of this Secret Art, your physical body will become even more powerful!"

"Within the same Realm, no Cultivator will be able to match your physical strength!"

Luo Li came before Li Xuanfeng and taught him the incantation.

The Blazing Sun Golden Bone Origin entered Li Xuanfeng's brow and began to permeate throughout his entire skeletal System.

Li Xuanfeng quickly chanted the incantation to absorb and refine it.

"He has the Blazing Sun Golden Bone Origin now, but it's a pity we're missing the Blazing Sun Golden Pupil Origin. Otherwise, it would be a perfect match for Junior Brother!"

"It possesses all the functions of the Profound Yin Black Pupil, and rumor has it that it also includes X-ray vision and the ability to see the distribution of spiritual energy in the world, which is very helpful for finding Heaven And Earth Treasures."

Looking at Li Xuanfeng as he entered a state of cultivation, Luo Li thought to herself.

The Blazing Sun Golden Pupil was a powerful pupil technique, even stronger than the Profound Yin Black Pupil.

Not only could it see through illusions, but it could also clearly see the distribution of spiritual energy in the world, providing immense help in locating Heaven And Earth Treasures.

Luo Li acted as their Protector.

The time it takes for an incense stick to burn passed quickly.

Wei Qingyan finally fully absorbed the Origin and successfully mastered the Profound Yin Black Pupil. When she opened her eyes, black runes flowed within her pupils!

A brilliant golden light suddenly flared up as Li Xuanfeng's entire body glowed, making him look like a golden Buddha.

Soon, the golden light retracted, and Li Xuanfeng returned to normal.

He had successfully mastered the Blazing Sun Golden Bone!

At the same time, the System prompt sounded in his mind.

[Ding! Wei Qingyan has mastered the Profound Yin Black Pupil. Ten-fold return triggered: You have mastered the Blazing Sun Golden Pupil!]

"It's done!"

Luo Li, who had been protecting them, showed a smile.

However, in the next moment, to her astonishment, Li Xuanfeng's eyes began to glow.

By "glow," it was meant literally!

Two brilliant beams of golden light shot out from Li Xuanfeng's eyes, landing right on Luo Li in front of him.
