Chapter 832: Great Ning Palace (I)
Li Wushao had his spirituality seized at an early age and was subsequently handed over to the Li Family. Later, when Li Yuanjiao died before he could transfer it, a wisp of the connection had been released.
Later, Li Xijun had used the Six Dams Life Matching Unique Technique again, and the spirituality was first with Li Xijun, then quickly transferred to Li Yuexiang. There was a connection between him and the spirituality; once the master died, the life-bound demonic creature would instantly perish. When he was with Li Yuanjiao, he often used this link to find his way to Li Yuanjiao upon being summoned.
The Xu State was in turmoil, so the connection couldn't be established, but if the spirituality had been extinguished, Li Wushao would have died instantly. Yet he had remained unharmed all along, and saw no sign of the spirituality being released and returning, so he felt secure and never truly considered that Li Yuexiang might be in trouble.
“She must have transferred the spirituality in advance... that’s why I didn’t notice.”
At that moment, a wooden talisman floated by. Caught off guard, Li Wushao froze. The words I’ve long awaited your return caught his eye, making him bare his fangs and let out a furious roar.
The demonic serpent swept his sleeve firmly, lifting a slab of broken stone to reveal scorched ashes that contained several delicate bone fragments. He reached out to brush away the ashes, staining his hand gray and black.
Though the weather was cold, his palm felt scorching hot. After turning the ashes over a few times, he used mana to shake out a few fragments. The fragments had a porcelain-like texture with a faint red hue. Li Wushao exhaled, circulating his mana, and quickly pieced the fragments back into their original form.
It was a red ceramic bead, covered in cracks. He recognized it as a personal belonging of Li Yuexiang, called Glazed Dusk. It had been seized by Li Yuanjiao during an attack on the Li Family by devil cultivators like Qiu Ji. Named by Li Qinghong, it had passed through many hands before ending up with Li Yuexiang. It served as a decent defensive dharma artifact in the Qi Cultivation Realm.
He gathered the fragments using mana. As someone from the Water Mansion lineage of Immortal Foundation, Li Wushao’s power conflicted with the Fire Virtue nature of Glazed Dusk, causing it to appear somewhat dim.
