In the Heaven Path Universe, Lu Li, Qi Dingdong and Qi Dingdong had been cultivating for half a year.
They had been cultivating for half a year but to no avail. Lu Li didn't make much progress on the 11 symbols and he didn't make much progress on soul skills either.
Apart from the increase in divine energy and the improvement of his soul, there was nothing else to be gained.
Cultivating in the Primitive Secret Realm was wonderful. Cultivating divine energy here was tens of thousands of times faster than outside. One year of cultivation here was equivalent to ten thousand years of cultivation.
Here, the soul would grow automatically. Lu Li's progress was even faster as he consumed the elixirs.
Divine energy and soul were the foundation. Lu Li's foundation had always been shaky. Now, he was cultivating in the Primitive Secret Realm to strengthen his foundation.
Only with a solid foundation could he gradually improve his realm.
Xiang Linglong and Qi Dingdong didn't make much progress either, especially Xiang Linglong. She was at the peak of the Fifth Tribulation and she had just made the breakthrough. It would be difficult for her to make another breakthrough right away.
Qi Dingdong's mind was not on cultivation but on Lu Li.
As soon as Lu Li came out, she woke up at once. She flew over in a gust of wind. Looking at Lu Li with a sweet smile, she said, "Brother Asura, have you made any progress during the half a year?"
Lu Li felt a bit awkward when he heard the words "Brother God of Slaughter". He thought about it and said, "Ding Dong, actually, God of Slaughter is my nickname. My real name is Lu Li. You can just call me Lu Li from now on."
"Then I will call you Brother Lu Li."
Qi Dingdong's eyes turned into crescent moons. Was it an improvement that Lu Li could tell her his real name?
It meant that Lu Li trusted her completely and accepted her.
Lu Li shrugged. He didn't know who was older, him or Qi Dingdong, but Lu Li was clearly more mature and more like an older brother.
It was okay for her to call him that. They would be staying together for a while. Lu Li didn't care about such details.
"Lu Li?
Asura Lu? "
Xiang Linglong floated over. Her cold face formed a sharp contrast with Qi Dingdong's sweet smile. She only nodded slightly as she walked over. Her willowy eyebrows were furrowed, clearly unhappy.
"Have you reached a bottleneck in cultivation?"
Lu Li asked. Xiang Linglong nodded and said, "There is one thing that I can't figure out. I have a headache."
"Then don't think about it. Rest well for a few days and sleep."
Lu Li grinned, waved to Ding Dong Qi and said, "Ding Dong, set things up. I will go catch some beasts and we will barbecue them."
"Great, great!"
Qi Dingdong smiled and quickly took out all sorts of things to set up. Exquisite Long didn't think too much and helped Qi Dingdong set up.
Lu Li rushed out of the valley by himself. There was a forest outside. He randomly caught some small beasts that looked fat.
He walked to the stream at the side and dealt with a few small animals. Then, he walked back and took out some seasonings to roast the meat.
His barbecue skills were pretty good. Although he hadn't done it for a few years, his skills hadn't fallen behind.
A few small beasts were roasted to a golden yellow color, and the fragrance assailed their nostrils. In fact, the two women had not eaten this kind of food for many years, but their appetites were greatly increased as they watched from the side. After eating a few pieces, they were full of praise.
Watching the two of them eat was also a kind of enjoyment. The two of them ate very elegantly, tearing apart the meat bit by bit and wiping away any stains at the corner of their mouths.
Lu Li wanted to laugh, but he was too shy to do so, seeing that the two of them were eager to eat.
Qi Dingdong took out some fine wine and some fruits. The three of them enjoyed the meal and then took a nap in their tents.
When Lu Li woke up, he didn't see the two. Out of instinct, he used psychic power to check the surroundings.
He noticed some movement in the stream nearby. The two seemed to be bathing. But they had set up a simple Inhibition Formation that Lu Li could not use psychic power to see in.
As a matter of fact, Lu Li could use the Trace of Great Dao. Such a small Inhibition Formation would not stop him, but he didn't dare to do so.
That would be disrespectful to the two. He was not a man without class.
"Whoosh!"
Right at that moment, Blood Fairy suddenly came back. She talked to Lu Li for a while.
Lu Li was intrigued. After some thoughts, he got up and walked downstream to take a bath.
When he came back in a new robe, the two girls had finished bathing. Their faces were blushing. Qi Dingdong was afraid to look at Lu Li while Exquisite glared at him.
"What is it?"
Lu Li was puzzled. Xiang Linglong glared at him again and said, "We were bathing. Why did you use psychic power to check?"
"…"
Lu Li rolled his eyes. "I couldn't see you when I woke up. Of course, I had to check. Also, didn't you set up Inhibition Formations?
My psychic power cannot see through your Inhibition Formations … "
"Your attainment in the Dao of Divine Inscriptions is so high, who knows if you can see through it or not?" Xiang Linglong countered.
Lu Li raised his hands in surrender. "My lady, I, Lu Li, am not a good person. But at least, I have a bottom line and principles. I will not do something so immoral."
"Alright!"
Qi Dingdong took Xiang Linglong's hands and said, "Brother Lu is not like that. Linglong, stop."
Xiang Linglong said nothing more. She trusted Lu Li's character. If Lu Li wanted to see Qi Dingdong's body or even hers, he didn't have to peek.
Qi Dingdong would probably take off Lu Li's clothes if he just beckoned.
If Lu Li could stay with her and stay here for such a long time, maybe they could make the breakthrough as well.
If they could cultivate here for a hundred years, or even hundreds of years!
If she stayed with Lu Li, would she be able to take a bunch of kids with her when they left?
Xiang Linglong's cheeks were burning at this thought …
Lu Li noticed the burning look on Xiang Linglong's face. He thought she was shy so he didn't mind.
Lu Li changed the subject. "I am going to have a look around. Do you want to go with me?
I have a goblin spirit and she has found a strange place. "
"A strange place?" Qi Dingdong's eyes glowed. She said with excitement, "I want to go, I want to go."
Xiang Linglong frowned. "There are several places nearby. But they all have powerful Inhibition Formations, right?
Lu Li, are you sure you can solve them? "
"Of course!"
Lu Li nodded with certainty. Blood Fairy had told him that she could solve the Inhibition Formations easily. Xiang Linglong nodded. "Let's go and see what is so special about that place."
"There is a small pond over there!"
Lu Li explained, "The water in that pond is different from regular water. I think it is some kind of liquid. There are five herbs near the pond, all of which are over ten thousand years old.
But not only are there Inhibition Formations, there is also a ferocious beast. I don't know how strong it is. We have to go and check. "
"Wow, wow!"
