Chapter 218: Chapter 100: Breaking Through the Third Realm to Defeat the Drought Demon; Henceforth, Dwelling Among Mountains and Moon

Humans, if they were to live in an ant city, would crush countless ants with a single step.

It’s not that he is unstable, he has simply completely transcended the level of ordinary people.

It’s not a matter of uncontrolled power.

This was actually reflected earlier in the "spirit attribute".

Ordinary men and women need to talk about feelings.

And him?

He only needs a glance to convey affection, and any woman would instantly fall for him, feeling happy.

Li Xuan is somewhat numb. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"Anyway, it was like this before, now it’s just intensified."

"Luckily, I had the foresight to leave an heir. The current situation was also within my initial considerations."

"If there ever were immortals or gods in this world, they should be like this, right?"

"If I were to encounter the Black Mountain Tuo again, I’m afraid he wouldn’t be my match now."

Many self-consoling thoughts flashed by.

He raised his hand, the incense smoke carried paper and pen to his hand.

He wielded the pen and wrote a long letter, saying he urgently needed to leave and would return after some time.

After writing, he shook the letter in hand, not daring to blow on it.

This fragile paper, how could it withstand a single blow from him?

He let out a gentle sigh...

Actually, whether it was Sister Yuan or the Little Princess, they should have long adapted to the situation of seeing him rarely.

But despite that, the two women cannot see him; he can see them anytime, see most of the State City now.

He waved his hand, the incense smoke turned into a rainbow, sending the letter far away.

Li Xuan then turned around, stepping towards the deep mountains by moonlight.

He sat cross-legged on a solitary cliff.

The wind and frost dew were cold, but felt ordinary.

Suddenly, he felt hunger.

With a flick of thought, he saw the bears, snakes, tigers, and leopards in the deep mountains, caught a bear, killed it, then threw it into the river, washed it clean, and roasted it over a fire, eating the entire bear, only then his hunger was slightly relieved.

"My appetite has permanently increased."

Li Xuan finished eating and couldn’t help but sigh.

Now his appetite is basically more than a hundred times that of a normal man, requiring at least three meals a day.

However, the consumption of incense smoke has become negligible too.

In the past, he would feel exhausted using smoke to travel, now... he casually picks things up with no feeling.

Li Xuan sat under the moon, feeling as if he truly became a god or Buddha protecting the land.

He rested his chin, pondering his current strength.

Suddenly, a thought moved and he called out into the distance: "Rose."

With this shout, he used the incense smoke’s "object moving" function directly to Rose’s ear at Xinci Temple.

Rose was eating, startled, looking around and seeing no one, curiously said: "My lord?"

Li Xuan sighed and said: "Stop looking, I’m a hundred miles away from you."

"A hundred miles?!" Rose was very shocked.

Li Xuan said: "Yes, a hundred miles away, I can’t go home now, so I can only chat with you."

"Why can’t you go home?" Rose was increasingly curious.

Li Xuan said one sentence, Rose asked one.

The two talked endlessly.

Li Xuan mostly explained how he had become so powerful that he couldn’t mingle with ordinary people.

Rose understood: "Oh, so the lord has to find a female demon spirit, right?"

Pop!

As soon as the words fell, the wooden fish mallet on the side flew up and tapped Rose’s head.

"Find your head." Li Xuan spoke much more casually.

Rose giggled: "They all say I’m the Peacock Great Ming Monarch, and since the Peacock Great Ming Monarch died, let me try to accommodate her power, transform into a female peacock, then accompany the lord."

Then she seemed to remember something: "By the way, my lord, send Yaoyao to me, she needs to practice here."

Yaoyao, she’s always wanted to catch up with you through cultivation, and then wait for other women to die so she can accompany you.

What do you think, isn’t Yaoyao so devious? Nothing like me."

Li Xuan contemplated a bit, then communicated with Wei Yao for a while, personally crafted peacock masks for her and five children to wear, then with one object move, sent all six to Xinci Temple.

Having first grasped great power, he was filled with curiosity about everything.

However, this great power existed only amidst the incense smoke.

Outside Cyan Wood Province, this power would disappear.

This made Li Xuan urgently feel a desire to "extend the reach of incense smoke" and "enhance his divine and Buddhist traits".

For the mundane, the ultimate temptation is called "Heavenly Son".

But for Li Xuan, this temptation is called... incense smoke.

...

...

In the silent night...

With green lamp and ancient Buddha.

Jing Miao sat upright, facing the great Buddha, chanting sutras with closed eyes.

Suddenly, she heard a voice by her ear...

"Jing Miao."

The young head opened her eyes, her beautiful face already transformed into compassion, yet still holding fatigue within.

"Buddha."

Jing Miao awakened.

In the next moment, the cold dark-toned hall suddenly turned bright, the terrifying and grand Headless Buddha overlapping with the great Buddha before her.

Li Xuan came here to solve the issue of daily meals.

"Starting tomorrow, have someone send extra meals to Buddha Mother Hall, three meals a day, with a portion for a hundred people."

Jing Miao was stunned, secretly thinking: ’That much? Buddha Mother Hall is just a secluded Zen courtyard, usually reserved for Buddha Mother, no one dares to enter. Even if the courtyard were filled, it cannot hold a hundred people.

And... the temple’s expenses are enormous, suddenly adding a hundred people, especially to provide for Buddha, that’s quite a lot.’

However, she just thought and directly responded respectfully: "Disciple understands."

Li Xuan said: "For temple expenses, Prince Qing’s Mansion will naturally provide the funds."
