Cultivation System: Stronger with Age

Lii Xiaolan smiled, not paying him any mind, and continued savoring the delicacies.

It wasn’t until Lin Xuankong had served up to twenty-eight dishes that she finally wiped her small hands and spoke, "Big fool, do you have the Manluo Demon Pearl I gave you on you?"

Lin Xuankong replied, somewhat puzzled, "Of course I have it on me. Last time you returned, you intended to take it back. However, you said your strength had broken through and you didn’t need it for the time being, so I’ve been carrying it with me all this while."

"This Manluo Demon Pearl has an extremely potent ability to trap enemies. It can confine opponents from over a thousand *zhang* away. Although it lacks the attacking effect of the Twin Vine Demon Pearl, you mentioned that once one’s legs are bound by the Manluo Demon Grass, even a Sixth Layer expert would find it hard to break free. The Manluo Demon Pearl is indeed strong, but what does it have to do with capturing the Flying Thief?"

Lii Xiaolan’s bright eyes twinkled with a smile. "So that’s why I called you a fool! The Manluo Demon Pearl can autonomously trap enemies from over a thousand *zhang* away, not relying on your direct control. Then what does it rely on?"

Lin Xuankong’s expression changed. "It relies on scent and the distinct aura of each Martial Cultivator!"

Lii Xiaolan nodded.

"This Manluo Demon Pearl... forget it, I won’t tell you its origin for now! The Manluo Demon Grass is extremely sensitive to scent and also has a tracking function for the Qi Blood of Martial Cultivators! If you can find an item stained with the scent and Qi Blood of that Flying Thief, and then activate the Manluo Demon Pearl, as long as the Flying Thief is within a thousand-*zhang* radius of the Pearl, it will naturally react. The sprouting Manluo Demon Grass will then automatically spread towards the target."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuankong no longer had any doubts, and his eyes were filled with hope.

Ever since he got the Manluo Demon Pearl from the Young Lady, he had never encountered an opponent who could threaten his life, so he had never activated the Demon Pearl. Who would’ve thought this mission’s obstruction would find its breakthrough through the Manluo Demon Pearl! The Manluo Demon Pearl can sense things within a thousand-*zhang* radius; a thousand *zhang* is equivalent to three thousand meters, a full six *li* (nearly two miles)! Although Great Marsh Prefecture City is vast, with his current leg strength, he can circle it a few times with the Manluo Demon Pearl without taking too much time! Of course, the primary task is to first locate an item stained with the Flying Thief’s scent and Qi Blood... those dozens of Flying Sabers left by the two Flying Thieves are still at the third warehouse!
