Li Xianyu completely did not expect that Great-Grandma would suddenly disclose such details. The secrets of the Unparalleled War Spirit seemed incredibly badass.
Wait…”Great-Grandma, you mean you’re the one who cultivated the strengthening superpower to the point where you’re the pinnacle of it?” Li Xianyu’s eyes widened.
No wonder the Unparalleled War Spirit was an 18 year old girl. Li Xianyu had been wondering why the ancient male chauvinists put the burden of saving the nation on the shoulders of a girl as young as eighteen.
So this was why. That makes sense, how could Great-Grandma have been chosen if she hadn’t been so talented.
Wait a minute…”My body can handle it. My superpower is self-healing.” Li Xianyu was so excited that he almost had epilepsy. “My gran, can I become the next War Spirit? If so, my Li family’s bloodline wouldn’t end and I won’t become my son’s ex…”
Great-Grandma’s mine.
“The two of us will be able to live together to rule the demon descendants community.” The Unparalleled War Spirit was unaging, undead and indestructible. Great-Grandma felt lonely when she was alone, but with him around, she wouldn’t be lonely.
Great-Grandma didn’t pay attention to her great-grandson’s unruly words. Perhaps she didn’t care at all.
“It’s not so easy. The method of refining the Unparalleled War Spirit was ruined by Li Zhongtang. There isn’t a second Black Water Spirit Bead in the world. Your body will be destroyed and repaired and destroyed again in the process, it’s a fate worse than death.”
Li Xianyu was slightly disappointed. “I knew it. I knew the appearance was the Unparalleled War Spirit was by coincidence and could not be replicated. By the way, who is Li Zhongtang? I have only heard of He Zhongtang.”
Great-Grandma was in a good mood and even told him about the secrets of the ancient era. “Li Zhongtang is Li Hongzhang. He was only second to the Emperor. Throughout the 300-hundred-year history of the Qing Dynasty, there have been fewer powerful officials like him.”
“After I was sealed, the Qing court negotiated for peace with the Eight-Nation Alliance. The Eight-Nation Alliance not only called for the liquidation of the demon descendant families, but also demanded that the Qing court hand over the secret cultivation method of the Unparalleled War Spirit.
“It mustn’t be handed over. Such an artefact mustn’t fall into the hands of foreigners,” Li Xianyu said.
“Thus, the secret cultivation method was destroyed, and those who had participated in it had to live in anonymity or secretly executed,” Great-Grandma said.
The surrounding audience had a good attitude of elementary school students, and listened attentively to the history class. Each one of them had an expression that conveyed, “Sugoi.”
Li Xianyu thought about it, and asked something he had been curious about, “Great-Grandma, how did you get sealed, what happened?”
The Baoze Group staff around them glanced over, their ears pricked up.
This was the most interesting secret of modern times for two hundred years.
“I’ll tell you next time if there’s the chance to do so.” Great-Grandma shook her head and was unwilling to elaborate.
Li Xianyu was uncomfortable all over and want to grasp her shoulder and shake. “Tell me, tell me!”
Sakurai Yukinako was very disappointed. She also wanted to hear about the upheaval that had nearly collapsed the entire Sakurai family. The Sakurai family, originally a very common demon descendant family had rose after the Sino-Japanese War.
As they had established good relations with the Prime Minister Itō Hirobumi then, they were a force nurtured by Itō Hirobumi. They gained great benefits in the Sino-Japanese War and had a rapid rise.
The Sakurai family had a taste of the sweet benefits and the Qing Dynasty people were silly. They were rich and easy to bully. In the war where the Allies sanctioned the Qing Dynasty, 80% of the family’s elites charged out.
They were ready to jump on the old neighbor to suck blood and grab the benefits. A tragedy then befell them.
Hundreds of elites from the clan marched with the army, but only a few returned. Although eventually the Qing Dynasty surrendered to discuss peace, the Sakurai family who was hit hard was abandoned by Itō Hirobumi and failed to share the fruits of victory.
The Sakurai family had fallen then. It wasn’t until the end of World War 2 that the Sakurai family re-emerged after the Great Depression, where the economy was in shambles and there were many things to be done.
The family’s record of the Unparalleled War Spirit was few and vague. Sakurai Yukinako was interested in that history.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady noticed that Li Xianyu’s hand had been twitching, and even as he sat, the sweat kept flowing, giving off a faint sour smell
“What’s wrong?” She took out a packet of tissue paper from her wallet and a packet of wet tissue paper. “Wipe it clean with the dry tissue first and then with the wet tissue. If you can’t help it, just go back. Take a shower, eat something and just get some sleep.”
“I’m fine, the awakening is not over.” Li Xianyu pulled out a lot of tissue paper and wiped the sweat and greasy secretions. “I’ll go back to rest after watching the match.”
Battle Lady is still the most considerate, Li Xianyu thought.
The awakening will probably last for a few hours, during which his physical fitness will soar. He would then go through months or even years of slow physical growth.
It only took three months for Li Xianyu’s first awakening and now it was his second awakening. his physique will break through to a new level in a short period of time, and the physical enhancement will also push the qi to a new climax.
With this wave of awakening, it was conceivable that he will fully enter into the ranks of the young generation’s top masters.
“The strengthening super power can strengthen my qi, physical fitness and attack means, but I do not know whether it can strengthen my self-healing ability.” Li Xianyu’s heart moved, as he pulled out a short knife.
He cut his arm and clenched his fist, activating his self-healing ability and strengthening ability at the same time.
The wound went through flesh and blood peristalsis and ten seconds later, the wound turned into a faint white mark. In a few seconds, it disappeared.
“No use?” He looked towards Great-Grandma. “Can’t the strengthening super power strengthen self-healing?”
Arm strength and hardness has been greatly enhanced, but self-healing speed did not improve.
“Of course it can. Cut yourself and try again.” Great-Grandma frowned.
Li Xianyu then slashed his arm and the wound healed in a dozen seconds without being elevated.
Great-Grandma was silent when she saw the scene.
She thought for a long time, and said, “Our Li family’s powers of strengthening strengthens everything tangible, and this is only the most elementary use. As soon as you’re awakened, you’re in the second phase, which reinforces qi and superpowers. That means you’re as gifted as your dad in terms of super power.”
“Our strengthening super power is capable of reinforcing other types of powers. For example, if you use Strengthen on Thunderbolt Battle Lady, her speed super power will soar…”
“I seem to go further and further on the auxiliary road,” Li Xianyu said exasperatedly.
He was a nanny, a mage, and had had an attack buff.
“Don’t interrupt me,” Great-Grandma continued, with an angry rebuke. “Then it’s the second case.”
“What is it?”
“Your self-healing ability is a far more advanced ability than strengthening. That’s why Strengthening has limited growth or even no growth impact on it.”
The two looked at each other and were silent.
Li Xianyu’s self-healing ability had always been a mystery. Great-Grandma said his birth mother was an ordinary person, then his self-healing ability should be his birth father’s doing. That was what the both of them had thought before the double super powers awakened.
But now, if his body was compatible with the properties of the two powers caused by his father, Lee Wuxiang’s “treasure”, then where did this self-healing power come from?
Li Xianyu thought of one possibility, that the so-called compatible nature of the two superpowers, was in fact, a characteristic that only this kind of self-healing ability could carry.
If so, the item that his father Li Wuxiang brought out of the Great Deities Palace, was this kind of self-healing super power?
A higher grade super power than Strengthening… It was definitely not as simple as self-healing.
“Can you revive again?” Great-Grandma whispered.
“Probably not. I have a hunch that I can’t be revived if I die.”
“That’s not right. It’s just a super-strong self-healing ability. It’s magical, but it’s nothing. How can it subvert the world?”
“I have an immature idea.”
“I allow you to speak boldly of your immature idea.”
“Is it possible that this self-healing ability can be wholesale? Dad got a treasure that wholesales self-healing powers that are extremely compatible with other powers, and I’m just Experiment number one.”
“It is an immature idea indeed.”
Outsiders all think that Li Wuxiang treasure that could supposedly cause the subversion of the world, was something that could allow an individual to have two, or even several superpowers. However, Li Xianyu and Great-Grandma felt that maybe it wasn’t that simple.
The next round started when the two were still discussing.
On the stage were Eric from the Association of Superpowered Beings and someone from India, whose name was so strange that Li Xianyu didn’t remember his name until now for four full quarters.
Fortunately, he was the only Indian in the top16, with a cloth on his head and a robe on his body, which was easy to identify.
The referee called for the match to start and Eric couldn’t wait to launch the offensive.
Li Xianyu still doesn’t know what Eric’s powers are, only that his fists are hard, he was aggressive and good at free combat.
“His powers should be auxiliary.” Li Xianyu made a conjecture.
Eric’s fighting style was fierce and domineering, and very straightforward. The Indian man was proficient in yoga, and his body was softer than the snake. He was someone who could easily lower his head to bite himself.
Eric was like a bull that fell into the mire, and was having a hard time in the battle.
Eric is very aggressive, but his flaws are also obvious. However, his offensive attacks are too fierce and is the most aggressive I have ever seen. If I run into him in the top eight, I’m going to lose if I go head-on with him. I have to employ the tactic of consuming his energy, Li Xianyu thought.
In the face of this high-explosive high-attack hero… Even if he were to awaken his Strengthening superpower, he wouldn’t be able to fight head-on.
The battle ended in 10 minutes and Eric did not win easily. The Indian’s energy consumption strategy eventually failed to resist the high explosive energy of the American and revealed his loophole and lost.
The next few battles, although quite interesting, appeared much less eventful compared to Li Xianyu and Miyamoto Hideki’s tumultuous battle.
As if the cheers were used up in the China-Japan duel, the audience on the stage were extremely calm.
Aoki Yui had the easiest victory. Her opponent was a Buddhist monk and was humiliated, as he had zero contact with ladies. In the battle, he had made a fool out of himself and couldn’t fight properly.
Aoki Yui, whom Sakurai Yukinako had said to be a fox spirit, was especially good at dealing with men.
The name list of the top eight was out.
With the exception of Li Xianyu, Jie Se, and Dan Chenzi, all the young masters of China had been eliminated. The outcome was slightly embarrassing.
After watching Aoki Yui’s battle, Li Xianyu left. He returned to his room to take a bath and slept until dark, and he was awakened by hunger.
Glancing at his mobile phone, the time was eight o’clock in the evening.
After taking a human form, Cui Hua did not sleep in the same bed with him. It was good too, if not he might have sex with this cat when he had morning wood.
Leaving the room, he walked around in the corridors. Great-Grandma and Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s rooms were empty. Xia Xiaoxue and You Mengyu were gone too.
At this time, they were probably out for dinner and haven’t returned yet.
A well-dressed middle-aged man walked in from outside the courtyard. He was an unfamiliar face.
He went up to Li Xianyu and said respectfully, “Mr. Li, my clan master wants to invite you for dinner.”
