Liu Wentian truly deserved the title of a zither master; he even surpassed the old witch—a thought that crossed Long Yuanyang’s mind.
The witch was also a master zither player, who had thought no one in this world could play better than she could, but she now realized she was wrong.
At least this man could.
At this moment, even the venomous snakes and fierce beasts around them seemed cheerful, as if they too were immersed in the beautiful melody!
When the song ended, Liu Wentian looked at Long Yuanyang and smiled, asking, "So, my little, little, little, little, little wife, how did I play?"
"Mediocre!" Long Yuanyang coldly snorted insincerely, this guy was really impressive, but was it necessary to play the tune of ’Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix’?
Having said that, Long Yuanyang returned to her room.
The "Soul-Exiting Demon Scripture" that Liu Wentian had given her needed to be mastered up to the middle chapters as soon as possible so that she could rid herself of the nuisances caused by her Lifebound Gu and her physique.
Moreover, she discovered that the "Soul-Exiting Demon Scripture" was much more mystical than her "Black Gu Scripture" and practicing it would greatly benefit her cultivation realm!
This cultivation technique could even ascend beyond the King Martial realm, which to her was like an unexplored treasure.
In the following days, Long Yuanyang diligently practiced the "Soul-Exiting Demon Scripture," while Liu Wentian, making use of the Qi-Nourishing Spirit, significantly enhanced his strength!
What rendered Liu Wentian speechless was that Long Yuanyang seemed to have developed a craving for his blood ever since that night.
She would ask him for blood every night to suppress the restless Lifebound Gu within her.
This woman, having experienced the relief his blood brought on that night, seemed to have grown fond of it.
In consideration of the seven streaks of dark green grass she offered, Liu Wentian was quite generous this time, thinking of it as a donation of blood, although he didn’t miss any opportunity to take verbal advantage of the situation.
In the end, when he called Long Yuanyang his little, little, little, little, little wife, she didn’t react at all, too lazy to retort.
On the sixth day, in the early morning.
Seated by the lake, Liu Wentian slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and opened his eyes, a gleam of happiness in them.
"If I’m not mistaken, I’ve now entered the Charm Later Stage!" a smile spread across Liu Wentian’s face.
The "Heaven and Earth Demons Gods Technique" was divided into three layers, and each layer wasn’t further segmented into Early, Mid, Late, and Peak stages.
However, the enhancement of the realm and a drastic improvement of strength were things Liu Wentian could feel.
At this moment, he sensed a transformation in the King Martial True Qi within his body, the power it contained was now much stronger than before.
Liu Wentian stretched out his hand and suddenly clenched his fist!
Bang!
The air he attempted to grab emitted a dull sound!
"Not bad!"
Liu Wentian’s lips curved into a smile as he stood up, talking to himself and said, "With six pieces of spiritual medicine, I’ve stepped into the Charm Later Stage. After taking the last piece tomorrow, my strength will see further enhancement!"
Then, he closed his eyes, recalling the final moments when he first obtained his legacy!
Beneath the Lotus Heavenly Cloud Thunder, Sheng Tianzhan’s fist, as though containing the power of all things in the world, struck towards the heavens!
Once, he had tried to emulate that punch but could only mimic its "shape", unable to grasp its essence!
At this moment, he felt for the first time that he might be able to exhibit a fraction of the brilliance of that punch.
Liu Wentian slowly tightened his right fist, tensing his body like a bent bow, slowly stepping forward with his left foot, almost turning into a stone statue, motionless. After several seconds, he suddenly thrust out his right fist!
In an instant, his right fist seemed to vanish, leaving only a shadow behind!
Boom!
Like a thunderbolt striking down, the air exploded, creating a violent wind from where Liu Wentian stood, blasting forward!
Bam!
78 meters ahead, an old tree as thick as three men could embrace together suddenly emitted a dull sound, then started shaking violently!
Dozens of colorful venomous snakes fell, then hurriedly fled, seemingly terrified!
On the tree trunk, there was a fist-sized dent about 56 centimeters deep!
One could hardly imagine what would happen to a person standing in front of Liu Wentian if they took that punch!
Liu Wentian opened his eyes, but there was a hint of disappointment on his face, "I originally thought I could exhibit a fraction of the brilliance of that punch, but it turned out to be not even one percent of it."
Sheng Tianzhan’s punch, seemingly slow, contained the power of mountains, rivers, and all things.
Whereas Liu Wentian’s punch, like lightning striking down from the sky, was extremely fast.
It looked terrifying, but compared to Sheng Tianzhan’s punch, it was far too inferior. The power to command all things under heaven, Liu Wentian simply could not exhibit it!
"Charm Later Stage, the realm is ultimately still too low!" Liu Wentian murmured, the joy of having achieved a breakthrough in his cultivation realm now vanished.
He had set Sheng Tianzhan as his target, a goal that was incredibly strong and distant!
Ordinary people would likely laugh out loud with excitement from breaking through from the King Martial Mid Stage to the Late Stage, but he was not satisfied.
"Forget it, let’s not think too far ahead. At least with this punch, even if I face an expert at the King Martial Peak, I might still stand a chance in a fight!" Liu Wentian’s face broke into a smile again.
Food must be eaten one bite at a time; even Sheng Tianzhan had spent over a hundred years to reach that step, so thinking more about it now was useless!
At this moment, suddenly, footsteps were heard from a distance.
Soon, three men appeared not far from Liu Wentian.
Among them was Lu Kangping, who had had a conflict with Liu Wentian that day, and his father, Vice Sect Leader of the Witchcraft Sect, Lu Tianqi.
Besides them, there was also a man wearing Samurai attire from the Island Nation!
"Little brat, you’re still here!" Seeing Liu Wentian, a trace of malice surfaced in Lu Kangping’s eyes.
