Chapter 699 Chapter 699: Dispute!
The good news was that Tang Li Xue's cultivation level had improved from the 1st to the 2nd level of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
It was only a small improvement, but Tang Li Xue was very pleased about it since it meant that practicing the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula] could also increase her cultivation level.
As for the bad news, it was…
Cultivation Technique: Four Mythical Guardian Beast Art (Crimson Phoenix, Black Tortoise, White Tiger), Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula (Profound Law of Heat and Cold [0.02%]).
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in shock and disbelief when she saw 0.02% behind the Profound Law of Heat and Cold.
"What the heck~?! I have already been practicing for more than eight hours since last night, and you are telling me that I have only mastered 0.02% of the Profound Law of Heat and Cold?! Are you kidding me?!" Tang Li Xue stood up from the meditation cushion and scolded with an angry expression.
0.02% for eight hours... Doesn't it mean she would have to practice for more than 40,000 hours to reach 100%?!
Even if she practices 8 hours every day, it would take her around 5 years to completely master the Profound Law of Heat and Cold.
Tang Li Xue almost fell into despair after she realized it.
Well... Actually, 5 years to completely master the Profound Law of Heat and Cold was not that long.
If the other immortal cultivators heard it, their eyes would probably turn green with envy since even someone with high comprehension might need several decades to completely master one Profound Law.
Not to mention, the Profound Laws of Heat and Cold in the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula] not only contained 2 types of Profound Laws but also contained the essence of the Profound Law of Chaotic Yin and Yang. So, it should be much more difficult to master compared to the other Profound Laws such as Profound Laws of Wind, Profound Laws of Lightning, and so on.
"No way~! I cannot wait for that long~! There are many other Profound Laws contained in the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula] such as fast and slow, light and heavy, weak and strong, and so on. If it takes 5 years to master one of them, does it mean it will take at least more than 50 years to master them all?!" Tang Li Xue muttered as her expression turned gloomy.
Tang Li Xue walked back and forth restlessly as her mind thought deeply to find some ways to improve her speed to master this Profound Law of Heat and Cold.
Surprisingly, she actually managed to find three methods in only a few minutes...
The first problem was that practicing both the profound law of heat and cold at the same time was too difficult, so the efficiency was much lower than she had ever expected.
It was like trying to solve a difficult math problem with her right hand while solving a difficult physics problem with her left hand at the same time.
But that was not a big problem for Tang Li Xue...
Doesn't she have two brains, her own brain and her perfect copy's brain? So, if she and her perfect copy were practicing this Profound Law of Heat and Cold at the same time, the efficiency would definitely be increased more than twice as fast as last night.
The second method was by taking the [Comprehension Pill] sold in her System mall.
She could even become proficient enough in using [Essense Devouring Technique] after she only took one [Comprehension Pill] when she practiced [Essense Devouring Technique] before.
Just so you know, Tang Li Xue only practiced [Essense Devouring Technique] for less than 20 hours before participating in the Foxes Hunting Festival, but she actually managed to use this [Essense Devouring Technique] quite well in the competition.
If she also took this [Comprehension Pill] while practicing later, her mastery of the Profound Law of Heat and Cold would certainly improve greatly.
The third method was... Of course, it was to evolve into a higher-grade beast!
Each time she evolved, Tang Li Xue realized that her learning ability and comprehension would improve to some extent.
It means her efficiency in practicing the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula] would be increased every time she evolved to a higher-grade beast.
As for how fast it would be, Tang Li Xue still did not know for sure...
The fastest way to confirm it was for her to evolve into [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox] as soon as possible.
"The first method is the most feasible, but I must wait until my perfect copy completed her task first since she would certainly be discovered if she dared to practice the [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula] in the Gu Family's Mansion."
"As for the second method... My current Deity Coins are only enough to buy two [Comprehension Pill] at most. But Deity Coins have many uses, so I do not dare to spend it carelessly. Oh, well... Let's just wait until it accumulates more before spending some of it to buy [Comprehension Pill]..."
"The third method... Sigh, there is no need to think too much about it for now."
Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation as she brought Little Loki and Yaya out of the cultivation cave and walked back to their inn.
Precious treasures that contained star energies were extremely rare, and Tang Li Xue needed to consume a lot of them, then store the star energies in the body until reached more than 999.
For the current penniless Tang Li Xue, that was an impossible thing to do right now.
How could she find that many spirit stones to buy so many precious treasures that contain star energies?!
Then a flash of inspiration flashed in Tang Li Xue's topaz blue eyes as she muttered: "Or... Wait a minute... Why do I need to buy them? Gu Family is an extremely rich alchemist family, so they should have stored quite a lot of precious treasures with star energies in their warehouse, right?"
An extremely dazzling smile enough to charm all beings had bloomed on Tang Li Xue's stunningly beautiful face, but unfortunately, what she currently thinks was far from beautiful.
.....
Meanwhile, her perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes in disdain when she found out what her true self was currently thinking.
"Oops, I almost forgot to use the eye drops given by Instructor Lan." The perfect copy took a potion bottle from her sleeve and dripped the liquid inside the bottle into her eyes.
In that instant, her bewitching topaz blue eyes changed into low-key obsidian black eyes.
Then she created a mirror using her [Energy Manipulation] to check if there were still some flaws in her disguise.
After making sure that her disguise was already perfect, she dissolved the mirror and walked out of the room to meet with Zhu Yan.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Yan was currently arguing fiercely with someone in front of the gate of her courtyard.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy frowned deeply because the topic of their dispute was actually her.
"Zhu Yan, quickly bring that pervert servant out! She dared to touch my body yesterday! What if Brother Shengxin does not want me anymore because of it?! I do not care anymore! His hands must be cut off today!" The young girl angrily shouted as she brought several guards with her.
"You ungrateful heartless wretch~! You are still breathing and alive right now because he helped you out yesterday! You do not even thank him but you want to cut off his hands instead now?!" Zhu Yan sneered scornfully at the young girl while mocking her blatantly.
The young girl became even angrier at Zhu Yan's mocking as she screamed to order the several guards with her: "Guards~! Go and drag that servant out for me right now~!"
The several strong-looking guards obeyed the young girl's command, and they intended to forcefully break into Zhu Yan's courtyard to look for Tang Li Xue's perfect copy.
However, Zhu Yan was not intimidated by them at all.
She took a step forward instead and faced those guards head-on with a cold expression.
"I want to see who dares to step into my courtyard without my permission~!" Zhu Yan warned with a stern tone.
The several guards could only halt their stop in hesitation.
The several guards could only put on a wry helpless expression, and one of them said: "Miss Zhu, please do not make it difficult for us. We... We just want to do our job. Besides that, you do not need to go this far to defend a mere lowly servant, right?"
Zhu Yan snorted disdainfully as she replied: "He might be only a lowly servant in your eyes, but he dares to save someone he does not even know without thinking about the consequences. So, for me, he is countless times kinder and better than all of you!"
Right at this time, Tang Li Xue's perfect copy slowly approached Zhu Yan from behind.
"Look~! That is him~! Quickly catch him for me~!" The young girl screamed excitedly when she saw Tang Li Xue's perfect copy.
The several guards quickly made their move to arrest Tang Li Xue's perfect copy.
But Zhu Yan would not let them do what they wanted...
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! SPLOOOSSH~!
Those several guards were thrown off a few meters and fell into a nearby fish pond.
No one even saw what Zhu Yan did just now to throw those several guards into the fish pond, but Tang Li Xue's perfect copy could see everything very clearly.
Zhu Yan actually created several transparent threads from the water in the fish pond and used them to pull those several guards into the fish pond.
