Chapter 927: Training

The seven cultivation wheels are: the Base Wheel, Abdominal Wheel, Navel Wheel, Illusion Sea, Heart Wheel, Throat Wheel, and Crown Wheel.

This cultivation method was passed down by Doumu. The Primordial Qi within a Xinsu's body is the reason they can cultivate. Each time Li Huowang used the divine light from his conscious eyes to wrap the Primordial Qi and push it into one of the seven wheels, his control over cultivation grew stronger.

When Li Huowang completely controlled the Base Wheel, he could temporarily cultivate a stone into a real apple.

When Li Huowang controlled the Abdominal Wheel, he could already liquefy the ground and deflect incoming arrows.

And when Li Huowang controlled the Navel Wheel, he could already generate fire from nothing and even twist a person into mud just by gazing at them.

This time, as the divine light and Primordial Qi from three Xinsu surged into Li Huowang's body, he began to advance to the next wheel.

As more divine light was used to drag the Primordial Qi, Li Huowang could pull even more, and his cultivation accelerated.

However, Li Huowang had a subtle feeling that these powers were slipping out of control; after all, these things weren't his own, and he dared not be distracted for a moment.

Under these circumstances, Li Huowang was unaware of how much time had passed or what was happening outside. At that moment, he had only one thought: cultivation.

Li Huowang's concentration was strained. He wholeheartedly used the divine light to pull the Primordial Qi within his body, which was now three times greater in quantity, and the speed was noticeably enhanced.

The Primordial Qi, unmoving as if forged from iron, gradually began to overlap with the previous wheel. At the very moment the overlap concluded, Li Huowang's consciousness exploded, and his entire awareness rapidly dispersed, leaving him knowing nothing.

When Li Huowang gradually regained consciousness, he found himself sitting cross-legged in mid-air. Li Sui was watching him from a distance as if facing a formidable enemy.

The previous furnishings inside the room had long since disappeared. His surroundings were empty, vast, and a boundless expanse of white, completely different from the previous cultivation chamber.

Li Huowang looked around. With a thought, the vanished chairs, beams, and floor instantly reappeared, becoming exactly as they were before cultivation.

His cultivation abilities had become stronger, and their range had expanded. Li Huowang estimated he could extend his influence dozens of meters away.

"Dad, it seems the method I suggested really worked. It only took—"

"Wait!" Li Huowang, covered in a cold sweat, interrupted Li Sui. "Don't talk yet! Give me food and water!"

Soon, Li Huowang's demands were met. After eating heartily, he lay down on the ground and fell asleep without even looking at Li Sui.

After waking up again, feeling fully refreshed, Li Huowang explained to Li Sui, "After I finish cultivating and come to my senses, first, don't tell me how long I've been cultivating for. If it's too long, I'm afraid I'll starve myself to death."

Only by satisfying his needs for food, drink, and sleep before learning how long he had been hungry, would the trouble truly be over.

"Go on, picking up where we left off, what were you going to say?" Li Huowang casually pulled a hair from his head, put it in his mouth to use as a toothpick, and spoke while picking his teeth.

"What I wanted to say is that cultivation didn't take much time, only two days. Our method worked."

"No, it's not enough," Li Huowang shook his head. "Last time, I teamed up with Dice to trick him. If Zuoqiuyong truly makes a comeback, he'll likely use the full power of Tianchen."

"A physical Siming and an entire world against us is no laughing matter."

"Since we've decided to use this method, then we must help me reach the seventh wheel as quickly as possible before Zuoqiuyong makes his move! Remember, I'm only at the fourth wheel now."

As he spoke, Li Huowang secretly held a thought he didn't voice: even if he fully mastered the seven cultivation wheels, he might not be a match for Zuoqiuyong, a terrestrial Siming.

However, the only encouraging thought was that, fortunately, he wasn't fighting alone this time; Da Qi and Da Liang were on his side.

"The more Xinsu, the better; find as many as possible. Use every means to gather all the Xinsu in the world." Li Huowang reached out and patted Li Sui's shoulder, preparing to resume cultivation as soon as possible.

There wasn't enough Primordial Qi and divine light for the cultivation method, but at this moment, a last-minute effort was better than doing nothing.

"Dad, are there any Xinsu in Da Qi? Ask them for help too."

"Haha, Xinsu in Da Qi? There probably aren't many people left alive there. We can't rely on Da Qi for something like this."

"Go back and tell Gao Zhijian not to be too shrewd with his calculations. Don't expect to hold off Tianchen relying solely on Da Qi; it's hopeless."

"I know the Dragon Veins are precious, and Dragon Qi accumulates slowly, but no matter what, now is the time to use the Dragon Veins."

"If we don't use the Dragon Veins now, there won't be another chance. Afterward, he'll only be fit to serve as a mount for that effeminate Zuoqiuyong."

The key to breaking the deadlock, Li Huowang believed, was still to go to Baiyujing. He couldn't believe that after he had helped those Siming so much, they would still stand by and do nothing. What exactly were these Siming busy with?

"Okay, Dad, I'll go right away. You don't need to worry about these trivial matters; just leave them to me."

Watching Li Sui leave, Li Huowang sat cross-legged, ready to resume cultivation. However, just as he closed his eyes, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten something important.

"Strange, what did I forget?" After pondering for a while, Li Huowang suddenly reached for his head.

With a light scratch of his fingernail, his scalp instantly parted. Then, with another scratch, his pale skull also instantly opened. After reaching into his brain and searching, with a gentle tug, a bloody, fleshy "red dragon" mahjong tile appeared in his hand.

This mahjong tile was what Dice had inserted into his brain to transmit messages about the natural disaster. The task was complete, but the mahjong tile remained in his brain and hadn't been removed. If anyone claimed Dice had carelessly forgotten it, Li Huowang wouldn't believe them.

"This fellow is truly rebellious to the core, harboring malicious intent. Next time I interact with him, I must be extremely vigilant." With a forceful squeeze from Li Huowang, the mahjong tile immediately crumbled into dust.

As Li Huowang closed his eyes once more to cultivate, outside the door, Li Sui stood gazing at the cultivation chamber.

Looking at it from the inside and looking at it from the outside were completely different; the wooden house appeared thoroughly distorted and fragmented, with newness and decay strangely coexisting.

All of this was caused by Li Huowang's cultivation. He probably didn't even know why this was happening.

Yet, this bizarre, precarious house not only didn't collapse but seemed to breathe like a living creature.

"Tell the people below to clear this area; no one should remain here." This was only the fourth cultivation wheel; heaven knew what would happen next.

Xuanpin certainly didn't want the Daliang Imperial Observatory to be completely wiped out by her own father before the fight even began.

"Yes, my lord," Zhuzi, who was nearby, spoke.
