Chapter 231 - 203: Double Happiness
"Easier than expected... and saved money too!"
On the way back, Chen Li felt the scrolls in his storage bag, and the heavy stone that had been pressing on his heart finally fell to the ground, as he let out a long sigh of relief.
As for the loss of face, he didn’t care in the slightest.
He should even be thankful that he encountered Ding Jian, who was inexperienced in the ways of the world and had been well protected, instead of some cunning old fox. Otherwise, even if he could have gotten the subsequent cultivation technique, it might have cost him a layer of skin. By comparison, just being ridiculed a few times was hardly worth mentioning.
"I wonder just how much inheritance the old ancestor left him..."
Thinking of Ding Jian’s ’I’m not interested in Spirit Stones’ demeanor, Chen Li felt an itch in his teeth, "Damn rich!"
Just as he was thinking this, a streak of escape light came flying from afar. An old man in a gray robe loudly shouted, "Fellow Daoist ahead, please hold on. I come from afar and wish to inquire whether this is the territory of the Nascent Soul’s great sect, the Huoyun Sect?"
A warning bell went off in Chen Li’s mind.
Without a second thought, he quickly changed direction, and the Rainbow Transformation Skill was pushed to its utmost limit, instantly increasing his speed by a third.
Although the Rainbow Transformation Skill was only a Second Order first-level spell, once cultivated to max level, it was comparable to a Second Order fifth-level spell. Its speed was something that even a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator wielding a top-grade Second Order magic artifact couldn’t match.
Soon, the distance between Chen Li and the old man was rapidly increasing.
