This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!-Chapter 507 - 43 True Monarch

Late at night, at the Royal Book Collection Pavilion.

Li Fei walked towards the Grand Ancestor Stone Carving for the fourth time.

After the second "viewing" of the Grand Ancestor Stone Carving, he rested for over five hours, waiting until his spiritual power had nearly recovered before attempting again.

Then he recuperated for nearly five hours until it was almost 12 o’clock at night, and Li Fei stood up and walked towards the Grand Ancestor Stone Carving.

This time he persisted for twenty-one seconds.

After exiting the Illusion Realm, Li Fei’s eyes were bright, and there was a fierce aura about him that startled Ji Qian, who was standing to the side.

This was because Li Fei’s mental strength had increased too much and he could not control it well for the time being.

After four "polishings," Li Fei’s mental strength was still at the Tao Foundation Stage level, but even the peak powerhouses of the Tao Foundation Stage on the Fengyun Leaderboard would probably not find many with stronger mental strength than him!

Besides the gains in mental strength, Li Fei’s greatest gain was the Myriad Blood Pearl:

[Myriad Blood Pearl

Rank: 21 Level 16%

Blood Soul: 559

Blood Soul Skill: Blood Rage (strong), Blood Slaughter (strong), Blood Power (strong), Blood Spring (strong)

Transform Skill: Blood Demon (strong)]

After the fourth "viewing" of the Grand Ancestor Stone Carving, the Myriad Blood Pearl advanced another level.

This time, the number of Blood Souls increased by 40.

A trip to the Royal Book Collection Pavilion had greatly enhanced his mental strength, he had acquired two secret manuals, and the Myriad Blood Pearl had risen four levels.

Li Fei was in a great mood and turned to look at Ji Qian,

"Mr. Ji, now we can leave."

Ji Qian looked at Li Fei with a complex expression: "Alright, I have already notified the Righteous Law Pavilion; they should send someone over soon to apply the Oath Technique to you."

"Thank you for your patience, Mr. Ji."

Li Fei bowed.

Ji Qian waved his hands hurriedly: "Lord Li, please don’t say that. It’s all part of my duty."

Then the two quietly waited in the hall on the first floor.

Moments later, a young Taoist wearing a Taoist robe strode into the Pavilion.

Upon seeing this man, Ji Qian’s expression changed dramatically, and he promptly bowed deeply:

"The humble official greets the State Preceptor!"

Li Fei was startled upon hearing this and looked at the newcomer in surprise.

He had not expected the current State Preceptor to come in person!

"Greetings to the State Preceptor."

Li Fei also bowed deeply.

He could only see the State Preceptor’s back during today’s court assembly; now he finally had a chance to see the State Preceptor’s face:

This Pavilion Master of the Righteous Law Pavilion, the current State Preceptor, and a True Monarch of this age looked very young and handsome.

Compared to the ethereal and transcendent charm of Qingxu True Monarch, which was as though he was an immortal descended to the mortal realm, Yun Shu True Monarch had an aura that was more dignified. Despite his youth, he carried an indescribable sense of age and weight.

"Ji Qian, you may leave now."

Yun Shu said to Ji Qian.

"Yes."

Ji Qian bowed and retreated.

After he left, Yun Shu calmly said to Li Fei:

"His Majesty sent me to cast the Oath for you."

With Li Fei’s current realm and cultivation, only a True Master was needed to cast the spell to ensure the absolute efficacy of the Oath Technique—why would it require disturbing a True Monarch?

Could it be that something else was to be cast upon him?

As Li Fei was filled with doubts, Yun Shu spoke again:

"His Majesty heard that you selected Lin Tianyi’s notes, so he sent me to have a look."

So that was it.

Li Fei immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Yun Shu’s primary purpose was not to cast for him, but to see if he had the talent for Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts.

Perhaps His Majesty was also concerned that he might take the wrong path and waste his great talent?

"Thank you for His Majesty’s care, and for the trouble you’ve taken, State Preceptor."

Li Fei bowed again to Yun Shu.

The Emperor sending the current State Preceptor himself to see him showed clear favor, which would leave most subjects feeling incredibly grateful!

Yun Shu, with an expressionless face, said: "You should be familiar with Oath Techniques, you know the precautions, right?"

Li Fei nodded: "I understand."

Yun Shu: "Let’s begin then. Relax your mind and follow me in reciting the oath..."

Li Fei followed the procedure of the Oath Technique, cooperating with Yun Shu’s casting.

After a short while, Li Fei finished reciting the oath, and Yun Shu’s eyes emitted a dazzling light!

A powerful force transformed into a brand, deeply imprinting upon Li Fei’s spirit.

Li Fei’s mind shook, but he soon returned to normal.

After the casting was complete, Yun Shu gave Li Fei a deep look and then turned to leave.

"Thank you, State Preceptor."

Li Fei bowed behind him.

After Yun Shu walked out the door of the Pavilion, he got up.

Did Yun Shu see the Magic Implant he had taken in? Did he realize he had cultivated to the Divine Transformation Stage on the path of magic?

Li Fei was also unsure; after all, that was a True Monarch of this generation.

Even if the other party knew, Li Fei felt it was not a big deal. After all, his choice of Lin Tianyi’s notes was bound to be revealed sooner or later.

And at most, Yun Shu True Monarch would inform the Emperor and would not spread the word.

For Li Fei, what mattered most was self-improvement.

As long as he maintained rapid growth, no one would be able to accurately predict his true combat power!

...

Lights were still on in the Imperial Study Room where the Emperor was reviewing memorials.

In theory, with the Cabinet overseeing all affairs of state, the Emperor could simply rule effortlessly, indulging in daily pleasures.

But in reality, if he did so, he’d be in danger of becoming a figurehead, so he personally interfered in many matters.

"Your Majesty, the State Preceptor has arrived."

The eunuch on duty spoke softly outside the study room.

"Let the State Preceptor come in."

The Emperor set aside the memorial he was reading.

Soon, Yun Shu entered the Imperial Study Room.

"Your Majesty."

He nodded to the Emperor but did not bow.
