Chapter 679: Don’t Make Him Unhappy
Li Xiaofei was startled. A scorching stellar flame blazed brilliantly beneath the cracked flesh of Nangong Longjian’s body, in the area of his dantian. It resembled a miniature sun, radiating dazzling light.
"Do you see this?" Nangong Longjian asked calmly, "Do you know what it is?"
Li Xiaofei shook his head.
"Cosmic lifeforms cultivate true qi and forge an internal universe. The dantian transforms into a cosmos, and the power of laws becomes its celestial bodies. Although you possess Planet level combat strength, and have condensed laws within you, your cultivation still follows Earth's outdated methods. You haven't taken the cosmic cultivation path. If you aren’t from Earth... then where are you from?" said Nangong Longjian mockingly.
Li Xiaofei’s mind reeled.
This... Little Aunt never mentioned this. Even Old Chen never spoke of it before his death. Could it be that they assumed such basic knowledge didn’t need to be explained? That as long as I read some cultivation techniques, I would naturally figure it out?
So... Nangong Longjian deduced I am from Earth just because of this? If that were the case, wouldn’t anyone observant enough be able to uncover this secret?
As if reading his thoughts, Nangong Longjian added, "Relax. Most people won’t notice. Even top-tier experts would need to observe you carefully to detect the discrepancy. And let’s be honest, there aren’t many people as bored as I am. Who would waste their time studying a nobody like you?"
Li Xiaofei was speechless.
Would it kill him to just explain things without insulting me?
Li Xiaofei couldn't help but ask, "Why are you telling me this?"
