"It seems that the Pure Holy Body has an even higher auxiliary effect on cultivation than I imagined."

Li Qian felt deeply moved in his heart.

Previously, as he improved the Pure Holy Body, his cultivation speed accelerated time and again.

Later, when the Pure Holy Body was perfected, he thought that its enhancing effect on cultivation had reached its limit.

But to his surprise, as the embryonic Qi Blood Holy Realm derived from the Pure Holy Body gradually strengthened, it could create such a significant impact during a breakthrough in cultivation.

This was equivalent to unleashing the usual day-to-day accumulated boosts all at once, allowing Li Qian to gain a twenty-two point increase in cultivation as he just broke through.

It could only be described as formidable.

Sigh!

Li Qian exhaled, feeling the more majestic True Qi inside his body, and a smile appeared on his face.

He was now in the late stage of the True Pill Realm; the next breakthrough... would be the Heavenly Human Realm.

Suddenly, he felt an intense sense of anticipation.

The breakthrough from the late stage of the True Pill Realm to the Heavenly Human Realm represented a leap in strength beyond imagination.

Of course, it’s also possible that the increase in strength might not be as immense as imagined, after all, he had already comprehended True Image Level Sword Intent, and essentially the only difference from a Heavenly Person was in cultivation level.

By the time he returned to the Chen Bell Platform, it was almost dawn.

At 5 a.m., he struck the Chen Bell, and with the clear bell sound echoing through the mountains and ridges, it signaled the start of a new day.

Time flies; another year or so has passed.

Many major events happened during this year.

However, all of this seemed to have little to do with Li Qian.

He stayed at the Chen Bell Platform, ringing the bell for his cultivation practice, as if isolated from the world.

Now that the Divine Sword Sect was gradually getting back on track, in the past two years, they had recruited one or two more batches of new Inner Sect Disciples, doubling the number.

Even the number of servant disciples recruited increased significantly.

Given the previous wars, not to mention the heavy losses among the Inner Sect Disciples, the servant disciples also suffered significant losses.

After all, many servant disciples had enlisted in the Martial Arts Army created back then.

In the great war, the servant disciples suffered the most severe casualties.

However, those who survived and performed well... eventually all acquired the status of Inner Sect Disciples. Although it might be difficult for them to achieve much in martial arts, having the status of an Inner Sect Disciple meant changing their destiny in a sense, and they truly became associated with the Divine Sword Sect.

This wave of war, although it took many lives, also catapulted many people’s lives forward.

Moreover, many Inner Sect Disciples, having gone through various life-and-death battles, made significant advances in their cultivation. There were even Martial Artists who broke through their limits in the Heavenly Phenomenon Level and stepped into the Innate Realm, some even comprehending Sword Intent.

Between life and death lies great terror but also great opportunities.

Recently, the Divine Sword Sect held a large-scale merit award ceremony, promoting a batch of elders, influential elders... and some retired elders, due to their outstanding contributions, also received the titles of influential elders.

As for those who died in battle, their descendants... were also given favorable treatment.

...

Chen Bell Platform.

Li Qian was arranging an array with his palms.

After over a year of practice, he had now become proficient in setting up seven basic arrays with ease.

However, combining every two of these basic arrays... the difficulty was not merely additive, but increased geometrically.

Not to mention combinations of more than three, with the highest level of application being the combination of all seven basic arrays to form the core of the Lion Camel Ridge Array Solution.

Suddenly, someone came up from the mountain.

"Uncle."

This was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, dressed in white, carrying a sword on her back, and looking spirited and bold.

However, her delicate and pretty face seemed somewhat indifferent and showed few emotions...

"Why are you here?"

Li Qian dissolved the array in his palms and, seeing the approaching girl, was quite surprised.

This was Li Mo.

She had been an Inner Sect Disciple of the Divine Sword Sect for four years now.

Because of her decent Root Bone talent and a solid foundation, she became a disciple of an elder from Purple Lightning Peak.

The main reason Li Qian hadn’t taken her into the Heartless lineage was her lesser comprehension, which kept her from perfecting the Sword Stabbing Fist.

"Uncle, I am going to accompany my master ... to the Xuanzhou region."

Li Mo said.

"Hmm, going to the Xuanzhou region, then you should be careful, and strive hard in your cultivation," Li Qian said, nodding.

Since the Divine Sword Sect occupied the entire Xuanzhou region, and due to the vast distance, the Divine Sword Sect had established the Xuanming Sect’s original mountain gate as the Xuanzhou Branch of the Divine Sword Sect, to strengthen control over Xuanzhou.

There is also a complete system of higher-ups at the Xuanzhou branch of the Divine Sword Sect.

To prevent the Xuanzhou branch from operating independently for a long period and losing control... the higher-ups of the branch are assigned from outside for a term typically lasting two to three years.

Li Mo’s master was being transferred to the Xuanzhou branch, and naturally, his disciples would accompany him there.

"Okay."

Li Mo nodded, appearing unusually calm.

Her expression was also consistently indifferent.

However, Li Qian knew that Li Mo simply did not know how to express her inner emotions, though she had improved a lot now, she still had some gaps compared to normal people.

"When you go to other places, be sure to handle relations well with your fellow disciples, try to smile more..."

Li Qian continued.

"Oh."

Li Mo still maintained her indifferent expression.

"Come on, smile."

Li Qian said.

Li Mo tried hard to smile but ended up pulling a stiff and weird expression.
