My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

“Husband, you’re back.”

Su Rentian’s gentle smile touched a certain place in Li Xingci’s heart.

Li Xingci paused, then smiled and said, “I’m back.”

As the two were about to finish their meal, an apprentice from the blacksmith’s shop came over with a bag full of beast crystals.

“Master, these are the siege beast’s beast crystals, they’re all here,” the apprentice respectfully said.

“I see, you can go and join the celebration,” Li Xingci said, his eyes full of anticipation, wondering what kind of backup plan his Master had left for him.

“Yes, sir.”

“Star Ci, can the thing that Great Master left for you be activated now?” Su Rentian asked.

“Just about.”

Li Xingci’s golden Nail Cover turned into a net, reaching towards the bag of beast crystals.

The moment all the beast crystals were absorbed, Li Xingci’s Nail Cover turned completely golden.

At this moment, Li Xingci suddenly felt the space contained within the golden Nail Cover.

A golden sphere appeared in the air, emitting a strange fluctuation from its surface.

“Please state your current predicament,” a synthetic voice sounded.

“Are you Pu Tao?”

“No, please state your predicament,” the golden sphere continued.

“This world does not allow spiritual qi to exist, and I need to defeat a group of exotic beasts with Nascent Soul Stage peak combat power,” Li Xingci directly and succinctly stated the problem.

“Mission established, please find an open area outside of the city and release the Spiritless mode Combat Survival Gift Bag.”

“It’s just like Master to think of this.”

The next day, Li Xingci and Su Rentian sneaked out of the city and came to a wide area by the river.

“Let’s begin.” Li Xingci directly released the gift bag from the space within his Nail Cover. Although there were many other gift bags in the space, Li Xingci consciously left them untouched.

A towering Puppet Barracks appeared, and from the barracks, countless black seeds like dandelions flew out.

As the black seeds flew into the sky, they turned into black balloons with a diameter of ten meters.

After the black seeds grew bigger, Li Xingci and Su Rentian felt that all the sunlight in the sky had been absorbed.

At this moment, the entire army camp emitted a strange sound, as if it was absorbing some sort of energy.

An hour later, three solar version of Satellite Based Weapons slowly ascended from the barracks and flew towards the sky.

“Master put this in as well. We won’t be afraid of those Primordial Infant Stage beasts.” Li Xingci was pleased.

“This is just a simplified version of the Satellite Based Weapon, its power is not enough to kill beasts of the Nascent Soul Stage.”

A light curtain opened, clearly showing the landscape within a hundred square miles, clear enough to see even the hairs on an ant’s legs on the ground.

“Since those three Satellite Based Weapons can’t kill Nascent Soul Stage Exotic Beasts, what should we do?” Li Xingci asked.

At that moment, fifty heavy armored puppets emerged from the barracks.

“Light Energy Armor, after being fully charged with light energy, can exert the full power of the Golden Core Stage for one hour, they will assist you in defeating the beasts of the Nascent Soul Stage.” The golden sphere said.

“Assist me.”

At this moment, over a dozen tool puppets pushed out two more Light Energy Armors.

Li Xingci looked at the five-foot-tall Spiritual Energy Armor and became lost in thought.

“Master must want me to use this to defeat those Nascent Soul Stage Exotic Beasts.”

He had never been interested in this Spiritual Energy Armor since his childhood, and when he traveled later, he solved problems using the Wheel of Reincarnation Divine Power. He had never used it before.

“You don’t need to go inside to operate it yourself, you can just remotely control it.” The golden sphere said, opening a hidden compartment in its body, revealing a white headband inside.

“Put this on, and you can remotely control this Light Energy Armor,” the golden sphere said.

“Can I control the other one?” Su Rentian asked with interest.

“Yes.” The golden sphere took out a second headband.

Just at that moment, a voice sounded.

“I want to try it too.”

Not far from the two people, a piece of land bulged up, and the old man walked out from it.

“Young Li, you are trying to abandon me.” The old man said indignantly.

At this point, Li Xingci fell silent as various thoughts flashed through his eyes.

“Eliminate? ”

A huge cannon barrel rushed out of the barracks and aimed at the old man.

“No need.”

“Senior, deceit and intrigue are the norm in the Cultivation World. You and I have no relatives, and there are some things that I must guard against.” After a long time, Li Xingci spoke.

“Young Li, you should do this.” The old man said.

A blood-red sphere the size of a billiard ball was spat out by the old man.

“Inside it is all my cultivation. There used to be three of them, and now there’s only one left.”

“Take this. After I’ve finished with the Heavenly Dao Oath, you can give it back to me. Okay?”

“Since you have given me hope, don’t leave me behind here.” The old man said pitifully.

Li Xingci stared intently at the old man’s murky eyes.

At this time, the golden sphere took out a pill and placed it in front of Li Xingci.

“What is this?”

“A control potion that can implant invisible tiny bombs into a person’s body.”

“This can control a person’s life and death.” The golden sphere said.

At this point, the old man directly took the pill and swallowed it.

“Senior, I trust you.” Li Xingci slowly took the blood-red sphere and said.

“That’s good.” The old man.

A person’s eyes can’t lie, but among the notorious old demons in the Immortal World, a thousand-year-old demon can’t be grasped just by looking into his eyes.

His eyes may be sincere, but they might be deceptive.

But in the end, Li Xingci chose to trust the old man, not because of the pill, but because of the longing for home in the old man’s eyes.

“Senior, do you have a family in the Cultivation World?” Li Xingci asked.

“I have a Dao companion who is two thousand years younger than me.” The old man laughed.

“I believe it won’t be long before you can meet.” Li Xingci said, putting on the headband.

“Now is not the time to kill the Nascent Soul Stage Exotic Beasts, you must train first, and then pass the test before you can go.”

“Only in this way can the Light Energy Armor’s maximum combat power be exerted.”

After the golden sphere had finished speaking, it led the trio into the barracks.

Hidden Spirit Sect, Sword Wuji, who had been fighting in the Trial Tower for a month, returned to his master’s mountain peak.

Wang Xiangchi had just finished feeding the monkey with his father and laughed when he saw Sword Wuji.

“You finally came back. What rank did you get there?” Wang Xiangchi laughed.

“I couldn’t get past the 500th place, I let Master down.” Sword Wuji said, lowering his head ashamedly.

“Wow, not bad, you reached more than 500 places.”

“Master, are you mocking me?”

“No, this is praise.” Wang Xiangchi said.

“You haven’t received the orthodox education of our Hidden Spirit Sect, so it’s understandable that your combat power is lacking.” Wang Xiangchi reassured.
