Chapter 933: Penglai (II)
The people of the Li Family often believed that talisman seeds resided in the Qi Sea acupoint, for ever since they started cultivating, the small white seed could be sensed resting at the base of the Qi Sea. It was quite easy to recognize.
But as the one who had implanted them, Lu Jiangxian understood them more deeply. Once talisman seeds were introduced into the body, they did not just reside in the Qi Sea, but also within the Shengyang and Juque acupoints. If a Li Family member formed a divine ability, the talisman seeds could also be glimpsed within those two centers.
Rather than saying the talisman seeds were located in those three acupoints, it would be more accurate to say they could be visualized there through inner focus. That was why, though the Li Family had long feared others might detect the talisman seeds within the Qi Sea, in truth, even a Purple Mansion Realm spiritual sense probing the area would find it utterly empty.
Since Li Xijun's soul had been preserved and not dissipated, the talisman seeds naturally had not returned either. They remained linked to him, and once he obtained a new body and resumed cultivation, he would be able to see the talisman seeds within his Qi Sea once again.
Therefore, Lu Jiangxian had no concern that Li Xijun would fall into some prenatal confusion when his body was rebuilt, or that the cultivators of Penglai might uncover the secret. Even if they captured and interrogated Li Xijun’s soul, the talisman seeds would still function.
As for this round of Purple Mansion Realm contention, the gains are not insignificant. Lu Jiangxian followed the two Daoists, sorting through his thoughts, There seems to be little true resistance among the sects and factions toward the Li Family forming a Purple Mansion Realm. On the contrary, many appear willing to go along with the flow... After all, no existing Purple Mansion Realm cultivator bears a deep grudge against the Li Family. At most, it’s just the clashing of pawns, not a real conflict.
At worst, Changxiao Gate and Crimson Reef Island are somewhat unwilling, but it’s not to the extent of wanting to wipe them out...
After all, in the eyes of the Purple Mansion Realm elites, Li Ximing wasn’t particularly impressive. Giving him even a twenty percent chance was probably overstating it. In Lu Jiangxian’s opinion, more than half of the Purple Mansion Realm cultivators thought the Li Family was currently just flailing. The one truly worth watching, Li Zhouwei, was still a long way off.
As Lu Jiangxian thought things over, the two Penglai cultivators ahead came to a halt. Two more figures descended from the Outer Heavens. The one in front wore the garb of a Penglai cultivator and was slightly older, with an air of immortality and Daoist grace.
He was followed by a youth wearing a Daoist crown, clad in gold-embroidered robes. His appearance was unremarkable, but a peachwood sword hung at his waist, and he had an enormous sword case strapped on his back.
