Chapter 589 - 185: Cultivation and Daily Life at Chenxi Manor, Encountering the Emperor Before the Mass Grave
On the first day, he saw three groups of people entering the Mass Grave.
Soon after, three people walked out of the Mass Grave, each with the strength of "Eighth Grade", "Eighth Grade", and "Sixth Grade" respectively.
The second day...
The third day...
The fourth day...
The fifth day...
On the sixth day, Li Yuan saw unexpectedly two "Fifth Grade" walking out of the Mass Grave.
If this had happened back in the day, this place would have been completely obliterated.
Li Yuan couldn’t help but ponder: ’If this Mass Grave can produce a Fourth Grade, then this Single Ghost Ghost Realm would directly break the strength pattern I estimated.’
But then he thought to himself: ’Who says the Mass Grave must belong to the Single Ghost Ghost Realm? Just because it can be suppressed by someone like me who is still at Sixth Grade? This isn’t a correct assertion, it can only be said that this Ghost Realm was initially weaker.’
Li Yuan pondered for a while, and the more he looked, the more he felt that this Mass Grave was still quite sinister.
It seemed eerie back then, and now it looks even more eerie.
Since he couldn’t figure it out, he didn’t intend to go in and test the waters, but instead left a bird every dozen miles as a lookout to continue observing the "Ghost Servant Grade Limit" that could emerge from the Mass Grave.
Once he had the Mass Grave under observation, Li Yuan pulled on the Thousand-Mile in a Line and returned to Chenxi Manor.
As for that flower shop, he had no plans to visit yet.
Upon returning to the manor, he gently sniffed the air, and then saw Elder Shuixiang in the kitchen, wearing a flower-patterned apron and cooking.
The petite Elder Shuixiang was genuinely scared; she hadn’t cultivated recently and had instead been cooking every day.
Li Yuan tiptoed in and hugged her from behind, pulling her close.
"Ah!"
Elder Shuixiang jumped, wiggling her hips, but then she thought that there seemed to be only one person who could "ambush" her in this manor in such a manner.
So, she turned her head to look.
Upon seeing it was Li Yuan, she didn’t mind but softly said, "Not here."
After saying that, she continued chopping vegetables, while softly saying, "These days I’ve been very tense; since I started cultivating, I haven’t stopped for even a day... Now that I’ve suddenly stopped, I feel very uneasy."
Li Yuan enjoyed the gently moving body in his arms, finding a sense of sneaky novelty in the kitchen.
He lowered his head to sniff Elder Shuixiang’s hair fragrance and asked, "Where is Lady Yin? Has she stopped cultivating?"
At his words, Elder Shuixiang paused momentarily, then said, speechlessly, "What kind of addressing is that?"
Li Yuan chuckled, "Between a husband and wife..."
Elder Shuixiang understood and thus said, "Han City Hall Master, Lady Yin has also stopped recently, and she’s building the Wendao Palace with Yaojue together."
When Li Yuan heard the four words "Han City Hall Master", he choked and coughed, then said speechlessly, "What kind of title is that?"
Elder Shuixiang, smiling with squinted eyes, said, "Between a husband and wife..."
Li Yuan paused for a moment, his eyes lightly closed, feeling the woman in his arms.
It felt like in just a few days, Elder Shuixiang had already started to change, from initially being "violent" or "pitiful" to now being able to joke.
It seems that stopping cultivation might be of some use.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Not bad, not bad, but ultimately, the Han City Hall Master isn’t me, you can address me as the Barbarian King."
Elder Shuixiang couldn’t help but roll her eyes like Cui Huayin, saying, "Annoying."
Li Yuan said, "If they want to change the name of Wendao Palace, then let it be changed to Five Tigers Duanmen Palace."
Upon hearing this, Elder Shuixiang hesitated, then finally said softly, "Are you serious?"
Li Yuan said, "Or you all can come up with a name."
He wasn’t concerned about the name.
After seeing his wife, Li Yuan went out again to take a look and visited Sister Xue.
Sister Xue was always with the daughters-in-law, grandchildren, and granddaughters.
Noble Family daughters never knew how to take care of children, it was always the nannies at Divine Wood Hall who helped out, and now it was the turn of the Xiang Family’s Daughter to handle it all herself, leaving her scrambling.
Sister Xue was there helping, making food, and tending to their needs...
Originally, Li Yuan felt sympathy for her hard work, but upon seeing Sister Xue’s smile, he dismissed the thought of doing something.
He went to the secret chamber, took out the Fifth Grade Beast Taming Skill, and the Fifth Grade Body Skill and started reading.
The Fifth Grade Beast Taming Skill is named "Beast King Skill".
Once mastered, not only can one control Fifth Grade Demon Beasts, but they can also subdue lower-grade Demon Beasts.
To control means the demon beast obeys your commands, doing whatever you ask, and being in complete accord with your will.
To subdue means that a large group of demon beasts will follow you, to which you can give simple orders such as "attack" or "defend", yet, if your momentum gets suppressed by the other side, these subdued demon beasts will scatter and run as a disordered mob.
The Fifth Grade Body Skill is called "Illusion Technique".
Speaking of which, the Sixth Grade "Concealing Breath" and "Stealth Skill" gather light, thus allowing oneself to hide in shadows undetected.
This "Illusion Technique" is even more magical.
According to the records in the book, once mastered, one can manipulate Shadow Blood to transmit all light and sound through their body, creating the illusion that one does not exist.
Both of these cultivation skills are extremely difficult to master, requiring the corresponding Sixth Grade Skill cultivated to the Grandmaster Level for further practice.
Qing Hancheng has possessed these skills for several hundred years, and naturally mastered them.
If it were before, Li Yuan would have thought Qing Hancheng only mastered the "Illusion Technique".
However, upon seeing that the Fourth Grade Beast Taming Skill following the "Beast King Skill" is named "Bloody Garden", he suddenly realized... Qing Hancheng might actually be a Great Beast Tamer, and no one knows about it.
As for the "Illusion Technique"...
Li Yuan remembered clearly, during his confrontation with Qing Hancheng before, Qing Hancheng suddenly vanished before his eyes, no matter how he felt, he couldn’t detect him, only by using ’fire’ did he confirm there was a living being, thus realizing Qing Hancheng’s presence there.
