"Jiang Li, what's in this box?"
Seeing the Extreme Martial Arts Association's delivery personnel, Zhao Ruo leapt down from the second floor, asking with a face full of curiosity.
"Blood Shadow Battle Sword!"
Jiang Li gripped the Blood Shadow Battle Sword and swung it casually.
Both its weight and texture were a hundred times better than the A7 version.
"No wonder you only gave Teacher Yang 70 million for the errand, it turned out to be to buy an SS-Rank Blood Shadow Battle Sword!"
Zhao Ruo was sharp-eyed and immediately recognized that the Blood Shadow Battle Sword in Jiang Li's hand was an SS-Rank.
After all, SS-Rank weapons easily cost 60 billion, even a flying knife made with the cheapest materials would be over ten billion.
A battle god without any backing really couldn't afford such a weapon.
"170 million!"
Jiang Li corrected.
"Alright, alright, 170 million!"
Zhao Ruo made a face at Jiang Li, then reached out to open the box, asking curiously, "Is this Blood Shadow Battle Sword also SS?????"
"Mommy?!"
"This, this, this, this..."
The box opened, revealing rows of neatly arranged SS-Rank Blood Shadow Battle Swords, laid out without any extravagance or flashiness.
But, no kidding, Zhao Ruo wouldn't even call Hong "Mommy" if he saw him at the Jiangnan Pavilion!
It was like a normal person opening a box full of gold bars. The feeling was... amazing.
Finally.
Jiang Li casually added, "Yep, all of them."
Zhao Ruo: "..."
That night.
Jiang Li was video chatting with Ling Ling.
At this moment, Ling Ling suddenly changed into a suit of armor, completely revealing her perfect figure, and between her brows, there was a hint of heroism.
It was a completely different style from the previous delicate and refined look.
This appearance made Jiang Li's heart flutter.
Unfortunately, he was currently in the training camp and couldn't get out.
"Eh…"
Suddenly, Jiang Li felt a sudden impulse, his blood surging.
His heart skipped a beat.
"The World Source has descended again!"
Jiang Li sucked in a breath of cold air.
Compared to the first time the Heavenly Dao descended, his strength was more than ten times greater.
But under this cosmic will, his ability to resist had become even weaker.
The higher the cultivation, the more you can truly feel the terror of the cosmic will!
Under the terrifying cosmic will, Jiang Li felt like an ant.
That indifferent and ruthless will seemed to want to assimilate him.
I wonder who cultivated successfully?
Jiang Li thought to himself.
The next moment, he felt his entire consciousness world tremble.
A surge of energy poured forth from the void, suddenly flooding his entire body.
Following that, a wisp of ancient, primordial power, as heavy as a mountain, silently appeared in his dantian.
[You spread the Vajra Lapis Lazuli Technique, receiving a gift from the cosmic will!] [You obtain a wisp of World Source!] [You receive a heavenly tribulation cleansing!]
World Source!
In an instant, Jiang Li didn't bother to think much. He focused all his energy on circulating the Yin-Yang Primordial Taiji Technique to absorb this reward!
His blood and qi suddenly became even more vigorous, and his bones and flesh emitted a tremendous roar.
Within his dantian, that wisp of World Source also exploded at this moment, being refined into his body by the Yin-Yang Primordial Taiji Technique.
The entire cleansing effect was much better than the last time.
At the same time, Jiang Li's heart stirred, and he divided a portion of his mind to analyze the process of the Heavenly Dao cleansing.
He's deciphered some more secrets, but compared to the will of the Heavenly Dao, it's still far too little!
After a dozen breaths, this Heavenly Dao cleansing came to an end.
The indifferent and ruthless cosmic will also disappeared, and Jiang Li felt much more relaxed!
"If only the process could be a bit longer!"
Jiang Li sighed.
The entire cleansing process was too short.
Plus, there was the interference from that terrifying cosmic will, which meant his heaven-defying comprehension couldn't be fully utilized.
"My strength has increased by at least a factor of two!"
Jiang Li sensed his gains and quickly calculated the outcome.
In fact, the increase in strength was actually the least important part of a Heavenly Dao baptism.
The real benefits came from the improvements to one's physique after the body had been cleansed.
And also the enhancement of one's comprehension.
Even with Jiang Li's own comprehension, the Heavenly Dao baptism still brought him a slight boost.
Although this boost was small, it couldn't be ignored when accumulated over time.
"I need to integrate these insights into the Yin-Yang Primordial Wuji Technique again. This technique should be able to improve another level!"
"But there's no rush. First, I need to figure out where this heavenly tribulation came from!"
Jiang Li quickly opened the chat group.
[Wudang Centenarian Daoist: Hehe. This time in the Spirit Realm, I finally comprehended the Vajra Dragon God Body and was fortunate enough to break through to the Golden Core stage!]
[Purple Mist Gentleman's Sword: Congratulations to Zhang Zhenren on achieving the Golden Core Dao!]
[I am Spiderman: Zhang Zhenren is amazing. After Long Bo, another Golden Core expert in the group.]
[Heaven and Earth, Infinite, Borrowing the Law of Qiankun: Haha. I'm also out of seclusion. I didn't expect old Zhang to reach the Golden Core stage before me!]
[Zombie Daoist: Damn, the group is full of good news today!]
[Little Li's Flying Knife: Congratulations! Congratulations!]
Yan Chixia also appeared!
He had also broken through at this time, becoming a Golden Core expert.
Now, everyone in the group was no longer calm.
Both Yan Chixia and Zhang Sanfeng had gone to Long Bo's world, and they broke through to the Golden Core stage upon their return. To say that this had nothing to do with their travels in other worlds was impossible!
[Peach Blossom Island Little Cook: Hehe, I followed Big Boss Jiang Li to travel the spirit realm world, and I also gained some insights after seeing Big Boss make a move]
[Yaoyue: Me too, I've already sensed a hint of a breakthrough]
[Little Li's Flying Knife: I'm so envious! I must go to another world next time!]
"It seems everyone has reaped quite a harvest this time."
Jiang Li nodded inwardly.
Just as he was about to log off, preparing for his trip to the Australian continent in two days, a system notification suddenly popped up in the chat group.
[Ding! Group member 'Xiongba' has started a live stream!]
Xiongba started a live stream!
[Zombie Daoist: Wow, Xiongba is live! Is he going to kill Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun?]
[Purple Mist Gentleman's Sword: Let's go check it out!]
[Long Bo: What's a live stream?]
[Little Li's Flying Knife: Just click on it and you'll find out!]
[Peach Blossom Island Little Cook: Fighting against fate? Interesting!]
Jiang Li also curiously clicked into Xiongba's live stream.
In an instant, Xiongba's burly figure appeared before him.
At the same time, Xiongba's gaze seemed to penetrate the myriad worlds, looking directly at everyone in the chat group.
He exuded a domineering aura, and slowly spoke:
"Jiang Li, both you and Ni Busa have said that I, Xiongba, am destined to be defeated by Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun!"
"But I, Xiongba, do not believe it!"
"Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun's martial arts were all taught by me. I also have the chat group, and I've learned the Return to Origin Scripture and the Taiji Longevity Sword!"
"With so many trump cards, how could those two possibly defeat me?"
"Today, this one will livestream for you all to see how this one will kill these two rebellious disciples!"
The more he spoke, the more excited Xiongba became. His cold, fierce gaze was fixed on the screen, as if staring directly at Jiang Li.
