The inside of the Distant Heaven Bead was like a small world. It was spacious and there was a castle.
This was where Mu Yingying used to live. The castle was decorated in an elegant manner.
Inside the castle, Li Li sat on the ground. In front of him was a person without a head. It was the immortal's body.
Lu Li had checked the immortal's body many times. But the immortal's body contained complicated patterns. Apart from the patterns, Lu Li did not learn anything else. Therefore, he gave up after a while.
Some ideas would be filtered out subconsciously after they were formed in the mind.
It was the same with the immortal's body. Lu Li used to think that it was impossible to learn the body refinement skill in the immortal's body so he stopped thinking about it.
He calmed himself down and entered the dreamland state. At the same time, he used the trace of Dao to sense carefully.
Also, he used some divine energy to flow into the god's stone and the immortal's body.
The divine energy flowed in every inch of the immortal's body. Lu Li could see pictures in his mind through the flow of divine energy.
"Well …"
Before, Lu Li had not studied the trace of Dao, so he could not see the pictures in his mind. Now that he could sense it, he felt something special.
There was something indescribable in it.
Lu Li immersed himself in it, forgetting everything outside. Again and again, he controlled the divine energy to flow in the immortal's body. Then, some lines appeared in his mind and those lines built up some wonderful pictures.
Before he knew it, half a month had passed. Even Lu Li thought it had only been three to five days.
Qin Zhan and Gan Lin, on the other hand, were pulled to get to know more young masters and young ladies, and they also became friends with them.
Lu Li told Qin Zhan and Gan Lin to stay at the Yin Family and he would go to the Flying Fire Land by himself.
This time, they did not insist on going with Lu Li. They knew that it was pointless for them to go with Lu Li given their abilities. Instead, they would be a burden.
Now that the Yin Family had treated them so well, they were treated like young masters of the immediate family. What else could they complain about?
Didn't they follow Lu Li to explore the Third Heaven in order to become stronger?
Without strength, one could not make a single step forward at the Third Heaven.
Many people risked their lives for some opportunities and resources. Now that they had the best resources for cultivation, they would be idiots not to seize the chance.
Qin Zhan came from a rich and powerful family of the second layer of heaven. He was forthright and knew how to conduct himself.
Gan Lin, on the other hand, was like the Axe Demon, always smiling and looking harmless. The young masters and young mistresses of the Yin Family had a good impression of them.
Since the Crippled Zen Master had spoken, nobody dared to disrespect Lu Li and the other two. They were treating them as the most distinguished guests.
The family gave them the same treatment as direct descendants, and everyone treated them as direct descendants.
Qin Zhan and Gan Lin were preparing to go to a mystic realm of the Yin Family. It was said that there were a few places in that mystic realm that had the charm of heaven and earth. One could comprehend a powerful intent inside. Many experts of the Yin Family had comprehended the intent inside.
Lu Li and the others were treated as disciples of the immediate family, so they had a chance to go in once a year. Each time, they could only stay for one month.
After more than a month, Qin Zhan and Gan Lin entered the secret realm.
Since Lu Li had been in closed-door cultivation, they didn't want to disturb him. So, they went to the secret realm to study.
Yin Ruolan didn't come back either. A relatively big battle had taken place in front of them. Both sides had casualties, and several fourth tribulation martial artists had died.
Yin Ruolan could not come back for the time being. As an Immortal Lady, she must be at the frontline to boost morale.
Lu Li immersed himself in the Dragon Manipulation Skill. He had found a way. It might not be the right one, but he had a vague feeling that it could be of some use.
Maybe it was because he hadn't studied the Dragon Manipulation Skill before, or maybe he didn't have the trace of Great Dao. But now that he was studying the immortal's body, things were different.
Many diagrams appeared in his mind. Many lines formed some mysterious diagrams.
The lines were like dragons, moving around and creating a mysterious formation. Through the formation, the formation could resonate with the formation inside the body, which could give the body strength.
Lu Li believed he was on the right track. Of course, he hadn't studied the lines and the diagrams yet, so he couldn't tell if he was right or not. If he could, then the Dragon Manipulation Skill could be accomplished.
He had been studying the first half of the Dragon Manipulation Skill for a long time and had gained some understanding. Now, it would be easier for him to study it with the diagrams.
Strands of divine energy wandered around in the immortal's body, capturing the lines. After verification, Lu Li added more lines to his mind, completing the complete diagram.
Lu Li lost himself in the diagram and forgot everything else. As long as nobody woke him up, he would keep studying until he was sure that he could learn the Dragon Manipulation Skill.
Time flew by quickly. In the blink of an eye, four months had passed. Qin Zhan and Gan Lin came out of the secret realm. Gan Lin's face was full of joy. He had comprehended a powerful true meaning inside.
Qin Zhan had only comprehended a relatively ordinary True Intent. Both of them could be considered to have gained something.
Qin Zhan started closed-door cultivation as soon as he came back. He planned to cultivate for two or three years before reaching the Fourth Tribulation Realm.
Gan Lin was cultivating as well. He believed he could reach the Fourth Tribulation Realm after eight or 10 years.
Fourth Tribulation!
This was unimaginable at the Second Heaven. There were only a handful of warriors at the Fourth Tribulation Realm at the Second Heaven. How could they hope to reach the Fourth Tribulation Realm?
If they could, they could go back to the Second Heaven in glory.
But after spending some time at the Third Heaven, they had a broader outlook. This was the real big world. The Second Heaven was just a small well.
To be the king of the Second Heaven was like a monkey being the king of the mountain when there were no tigers.
There were as many warriors at the Fourth Tribulation Realm as there were hairs on a cow. The difference between an average warrior at the Fourth Tribulation Realm, a warrior at the middle stage of the Fourth Tribulation Realm and a warrior at the peak of the Fourth Tribulation Realm was like heaven and earth.
One should not think that one could be considered a powerful warrior after reaching the Fourth Tribulation Realm. It was barely enough in the Third Heaven.
The two didn't think too much about it. The Fourth Tribulation Realm was not easy to reach. Even if they were at the peak of the Third Tribulation Realm, they wouldn't dare to take the Divine Tribulation if they were not confident enough. Their souls could be destroyed.
That being said, Yin Chengrui promised the two that as long as they could reach the peak of the Third Tribulation Realm, he would apply to the Yin Family for some top-notch resources to help them pass the Divine Tribulation.
With those resources, their chances of passing the Divine Tribulation would increase by about 30 percent.
That was why the Yin Family could have so many young people reaching the Fourth Tribulation Realm. Big Families all had resources to assist in passing the Divine Tribulation. It was easier for them to produce warriors of higher realms. In this way, there would be more powerful warriors.
With the guarantee from the Yin Family, the two went back to closed-door cultivation with peace of mind. Seven months later, Lu Li came out from closed-door cultivation.
It was not that he had mastered the Dragon Manipulation Skill. It was that Yin Ruolan was finally back.
