Chapter 277 Wang Xingwei's Cultivation Level

Good titles are hard to come up with. Click to read the masterpiece, "Immortality Begins with Inheriting the Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation!"

Why stay at the inn instead of returning to Xiantao Mountain?

Li Ping glanced at Zhang Tie and saw that his face was full of sincerity, clearly indicating that he was asking the question from the bottom of his heart.

"Still so simple-minded," Li Ping couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Actually, when he talked to Gu Musheng about staying at the inn, Gu Musheng didn't ask too many questions, which meant that he probably already guessed that Li Ping wouldn't stay in the Immortal City for long.

Zhang Tie failed to grasp the implied meaning in his words.

Li Ping didn't know whether it was because he had been in a high position for many years and therefore neglected interpersonal communication, or whether he had been too excited in front of his elder brother and revealed his true nature.

He pondered for a moment before shaking his head and saying, "I've only returned to the Immortal City to see you all. I'll be leaving in a few days, so there's no need to worry about the cave dwelling."

"Brother, you're leaving again?" Zhang Tie was shocked by Li Ping's answer. He asked in confusion, "Brother, weren't you living comfortably in Immortal City before? Why are you suddenly leaving...?"

Li Ping did not answer Zhang Tie's question, but instead smiled and inquired about the situation of his family's younger generations.

In fact, back when he was in the Immortal City, he had actually considered bringing the Immortal City into his embrace.

At that time, he thought that Fenglan Zhenren was old, and Dai Sangyu, the disciple with the best chance of forming a core, was trapped in her inner demons and had no hope of forming a core.

After Zhang Tie, Gu Musheng, and others on his side completed their foundation building, they successively joined the Qinglong Mountain lineage and assumed important positions.

As long as he achieves the Golden Core stage and becomes a Core Formation cultivator.

With both manpower and strength, once Master Fenglan dies, the entire Immortal City will be his for the taking.

He would then forcibly take Dai Sangyu as his concubine. Just seeing her humiliated and helpless expression in bed every day would make him feel much better.

However, after experiencing various upheavals, he lost that desire.

Especially now, the Immortal City is essentially the property of the three sects, including Ziyun Valley.

With no shortage of cultivation resources or spiritual sites, Li Ping had no interest in making enemies with the three major Core Formation sects for the sake of a single immortal city.

He had no intention of standing up for the sake of the Meng family or other old friends, or causing trouble.

Now, all he wants is to quietly live out his long life.

Zhang Tie sat for a while, easing the pain of parting with his elder brother, before getting up to take his leave.

However, his sullen expression when he left clearly showed that he was reluctant to see his elder brother leave again soon.

……

Five Cloud Pool.

This is a secluded pool spanning dozens of miles in the mountains. Through the magic array, one can see that many spiritual lands have been cultivated around the pool, and many cultivators are working in these spiritual lands.

Meanwhile, in the pool, cultivators were feeding spirit fish.

in the hall.

Bai Zhengheng was talking with Bai Qing, who had recently come from Gaojishan.

As the only two Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Bai family, and both in their prime, each of them was stationed in a second-tier spiritual land. Their relationship wasn't particularly good, but it wasn't bad either.

After listening to Bai Qing's account, Bai Zhengheng shook his head slightly: "Brother Qing, you said that person has returned? But my sister has passed away, and I have no further connection with him. There's no need for me to see him again."

Bai Zhengheng was grateful for his sister's contributions and thanked her for giving him the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Therefore, even after becoming a Foundation Establishment Ancestor, he still respected his sister very much.

Even when his sister acted recklessly and forced some members of the Bai family to change their surname, he did not interfere.

Moreover, after his sister's death, he did not allow those who had changed their surnames to change them back, and the name "Li Family of Wuyuntan" was always retained.

But in fact, he not only felt nothing for Li Ping, but even harbored a subtle aversion to him.

From his perspective, Li Ping never gave his sister a proper title; his sister was merely a tool to Li Ping and suffered a lot of grievances.

The Foundation Establishment Pill he used came from Li Ping, which was true, but to put it bluntly, it was obtained by his sister selling herself into servitude.

From beginning to end, he only felt indebted to his sister.

Hearing Bai Zhengheng's reply and seeing his resolute attitude, Bai Qing had no choice but to nod helplessly: "Since you're not going, then I'll take a member of the Li clan with me."

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhengheng couldn't help but frown.

But in the end, he nodded: "Brother Qing, go ask who's willing to go."

……

A few days later, at Xianlaiju Inn.

Four figures appeared one after another outside the inn, attracting curious glances from passing cultivators. However, once they saw the aura emanating from the six people, they all quickened their pace and left.

Three early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators and one mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator—how could these low-level cultivators dare to offend them?

The manager of Xianlaiju Inn also hurriedly came out with a smile, calling out "Senior" enthusiastically, wanting to invite the four of them into the inn first.

However, the four ignored him.

The one among the four with an ordinary face She waved him off impatiently, saying, "Go do your own thing, don't get in my way."

The steward immediately dared not say another word and obediently left.

Fortunately, he finally confirmed that the four people were not targeting the inn.

After the four waited for a while, another young man in a dark blue robe arrived in a hurry with another person.

Cheng Yao nodded in satisfaction: "Everyone's here, let's go up and pay our respects to our eldest brother!"

Immediately, Zhang Tie, Gu Musheng, Cheng Yao, Bai Qing and their siblings, along with Wang Xingwei brought by Cheng Yao and the younger generation brought by Bai Qing, entered the inn together and headed towards the superior room where Li Ping was staying.

The younger man that Bai Qing brought was a round-faced youth who looked a little inexperienced, around twenty years old.

Thinking of the person he was about to meet, a hint of anticipation appeared on his face.

The other members of the Li family in Wuyuntan had all learned in advance that Hengzu did not want them to come to the Immortal City, so they all avoided him when Qingzu went to select people.

They knew the origins of the Li family of Wuyuntan perfectly well, but they didn't really believe that Li Ping was their ancestor, and they certainly wouldn't risk offending the Hengzu by going to the Immortal City to pay homage to Li Ping.

He was the only one who volunteered.

Actually, his idea was very simple. His father was an orphan adopted by his grandmother, and he simply wanted to see the person his grandmother could never forget!

The round-faced youth followed behind the five Foundation Establishment seniors and soon arrived at a very large guest room.

The door creaked open, and before he could even see the faces of the people inside, he heard the unanimous surprised voices of the five Foundation Establishment seniors.

"Big brother!"

……

"You've arrived." Li Ping smiled and looked at the six people who appeared outside the door.

He had met Zhang Tie and Gu Musheng before. Cheng Yao looked the same as before, but with a more composed and dignified air. Bai Qing looked much more mature and seemed to keep his emotions in check.

What surprised Li Ping the most was Wang Xingwei, who stood next to Cheng Yao and also called him "Big Brother".

His appearance hasn't changed much; he still has the same image of a refined gentleman, a gentle and mild-mannered nobleman in white robes, as he did seventy years ago.

What truly surprised Li Ping was his cultivation level. Not only was he the only mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator among the five, but Li Ping also discovered through a scan with his divine sense that he was not far from reaching the bottleneck of the late-Foundation Establishment stage.

This cultivation speed is actually quite fast.

If Li Ping remembers correctly, Wang Xingwei should be about the same age as his fifth brother, Qi Hanmo, and is now around 120 years old.

To have achieved such cultivation at such a young age, he has a good chance of forming his core.

However, after thinking about it carefully, Li Ping felt it was perfectly reasonable.

After all, Wang Xingwei had the aptitude of two spiritual roots, and he did not use Foundation Establishment Pills when he was establishing his foundation. Instead, he disregarded his own life and death and attempted to establish his foundation on his own.

therefore.

The difficulty for him to break through the bottleneck after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage was already lower than that of other cultivators with the same two spiritual roots. In addition, he had a relatively simple personality and was dedicated to cultivation.

It's not surprising that he has reached this level of cultivation.

Actually, it's a good thing that a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator emerged from the group of four siblings, as this greatly enhanced the group's strength.

Gu Musheng smiled and suggested, "Brother, I've already booked a banquet at Shicui Tower. Why don't we go over there together and talk while we eat?"

"Alright." Li Ping smiled and nodded.

Immediately, the group surrounded Li Ping and headed towards Shicui Tower.

……

A moment later, inside the private room.

The six people sat down in turn, and the restaurant's servants served them up with spiritual food and wine.

Amidst the laughter and conversation, Li Ping's gaze fell upon the round-faced young man serving nearby, and he said with a smile, "Bai Qing, is this your junior? Since you're here, don't stand, come and take a seat with us."

Upon hearing Li Ping's question, Bai Qing's expression froze.

When he received the message that his elder brother had returned, his first thought was of the Li family of Wuyuntan, which Bai Lin had established to ensure the continuation of his elder brother's lineage. He hurriedly went and brought a member of the Li family with him.

But now that he's actually seeing his older brother, he doesn't know how to start the conversation.

After thinking for a moment, he said somewhat awkwardly, "Brother, this is not my junior, but your junior."

Before Li Ping could react, in order to cover up his embarrassment, he hurriedly waved to the round-faced youth: "Li Qingshan, why don't you come and greet your Li family's ancestor?"

"Huh?" Li Ping was initially a little confused.

But as the round-faced youth actually walked up to him and respectfully called him "Ancestor," he recalled what Yan Hengchuan had told him about the "Li Family of Wuyuntan."

And they quickly guessed that this round-faced youth named "Li Qingshan" was probably a cultivator from the Li family of Wuyuntan.

After figuring out the reason, Li Ping shook his head slightly, said nothing more, and simply asked Li Qingshan to sit down at the next seat.

Seeing that the "Ancestor" didn't care about him, Li Qingshan felt somewhat disappointed.

The other four fell silent because of Bai Qing's sudden and bizarre move.

Suddenly, the atmosphere at the table became strange.

To ease the tension, Gu Musheng stood up, holding a wine glass, and said, "Brother, you've finally returned to the Immortal City. Let's have a drink together to welcome you back!"

"Yes! Let's welcome our eldest brother back home."

……

The others also raised their glasses.

After breaking the deadlock at the banquet, the atmosphere improved significantly.

Apart from Li Qingshan, who was on pins and needles, and Wang Xingwei, who had a mild temperament, the rest of the people couldn't help but recall their past struggles.

But just as the atmosphere in the private room was getting lively, the door creaked open.

A middle-aged man dressed as a scholar walked in from outside the door, accompanied by a sarcastic voice: "It seems that I, Ye, am going to disturb your pleasantries. Junior Brother Gu, there are some problems with the accounts of Wanfa Pavilion. Please come with me."
