Within the Bank of the Universe, Li Xiandao looked as his subordinates were running around everywhere. They obtained victories everywhere they went and contract after another was being cleared. The massive amount of bad debts was being solved and this made him really happy, especially in Hell Sky. Along with the flame giants clearing the 500 contracts, they started to use the teleportation formation to enter Flame Sky.
Li Xiandao was satisfied with their progress. They climbed to the top and weren’t happy with their current states.
As for himself, he was also trying hard to improve himself.
Emperor Realm was far from the end. In the eyes of the weak, emperors were terrifying. But to Li Xiandao, emperors were just so-so.
Li Xiandao was moving towards the realms after Emperor Realm.
Of course, Li Xiandao couldn’t break through now. His body contained the 10 lands and 10 worlds with shocking powers that far exceeded that of everyone else.
Over these days, dragontooth rice planted more and more rice. As they entered Cold Moon Sky, with the thick spiritual energy, the amount of dragontooth rice that could be planted increased substantially. Each month, large amounts of rice were being produced.
90% of them landed in Li Xiandao’s hands. He absorbed most of them and left 10% in storage just in case there were future needs.
But even such huge energy couldn’t allow Li Xiandao to break through.
He was stuck at the peak of Emperor Realm.
Even if his combat strength was far above this realm, he still couldn’t break through.
“I am lacking some accumulated cultivation but I have absorbed enough dragontooth rice and enough spiritual energy dragon veins and it is still not enough.” Li Xiandao frowned.
If he continued, even if he could use dragontooth rice and spiritual energy dragon veins to break through, it was tough to improve further.
Breaking through to Emperor Realm would basically finish all his accumulated learnings. If he wanted to break through, he could only snatch other people’s learnings.
Or rather, he had to wait for dragontooth rice to recover and plant dragontooth rice which was at its peak energy level.
But that was too far away.
Li Xiandao had to think of a way.
His act of using the Ten Lands to form his grotto-heavens was too bold as that required too much energy.
It was an ocean amount. Each time he broke through it would increase in folds. One could say that if not for the Bank of the Universe, he would spend his life searching for resources and infomation for resources.
Moreover, Li Xiandao had an even bolder idea.
He wanted to include the Nine Skies in his body too so he could display the Nine Skies and Ten Lands in his own dantian. At that time, even a Celestial would find it hard to block Li Xiandao’s strength.
But now, Ten Lands needed so many resources, so wouldn’t Nine Skies need even more?
Li Xiandao was hesitating.
At that point, Seven walked in.
After seven days, Seven finally started to worry about Li Xiandao. The two of them didn’t mention what had happened before.
The main reason was because Li Xiandao was worried that Seven would ignore him again.
Seven was worried that she would be shy and also that she wouldn’t be able to stop Li Xiandao from doing such things.
The two of them were deep in thought, so they decided not to mention the past.
“Master, someone is looking for you.” Seven walked over and said.
Li Xiandao was stunned and asked, “A new guest?”
But Seven should have reminded him if it was a new guest and she shouldn’t have been speaking with this tone.
Seven shook her head, “It’s not a new guest. It belongs to the Bank of the Universe.”
“The Bank of the Universe’s item? What do you mean?” Li Xiandao didn’t understand.
“Didn’t you receive a guest who was disturbed by a demon?” Seven reminded Li Xiandao.
Li Xiandao nodded, “That demon who tried to steal Zhong Zi Qi’s body, right?”
“Right. Even though Zhong Zi Qi left, the demon is still here. The demon fainted then and you didn’t interrogate him. Now, he has woken up and wants to meet you.” Seven said truthfully.
“The demon wants to meet me!” Li Xiandao was interested. The demon that he captured actually wanted to meet him.
“Did the demon say why?” Li Xiandao asked.
“He just said that there is something important. He wants to negotiate with you.” Seven shook her head.
“Reject him.” Li Xiandao said without hesitation.
“Tell him that he is my prisoner and has no right to negotiate with me. Ask him whether he understands what position he is in.” Li Xiandao said coldly.
Although Li Xiandao didn’t know why he wanted to negotiate with him, he didn’t want to be on the same level as a demon.
He didn’t come in with a watch and Li Xiandao took down the demon and locked him up. As such, he didn’t have the right to do so.
Seven nodded and left.
Li Xiandao continued to think about how to get a huge amount of resources to allow him to break through.
In a short moment, Seven returned, “The demon has learned and says that he wants to meet Master and has something to report to you.”
Li Xiandao was satisfied, “Now, that is right. He should be clear about his position. Now, bring him in.”
Seven smiled sweetly and took out a jade box. She placed it in front of Li Xiandao, “I brought it.”
Li Xiandao was satisfied, “You are more and more like the bug in my stomach.”
Her face turned red and she rolled her eyes at Li Xiandao, “You are the Master and I am the butler. Of course, I have to understand your thoughts.”
“I have never treated you as a butler. We are equal here.” Li Xiandao smiled and said. He reached out to open the box.
Seven’s beautiful eyes sparkled as she looked at Li Xiandao with a sweet expression.
Li Xiandao didn’t notice as he focused on the box.
Da da!
Li Xiandao tapped and it gave out a crisp voice.
“What do you have to say?” Li Xiandao asked.
“Release me. I will tell you face to face.” The demon was happy and said eagerly
“You should say it first. If there is a need to listen more, then I will release you. ” Li Xiandao said calmly. He wasn’t sure about whether or not he would be interested in what the demon would say.
“There is definitely a need. It is related to hell.” The demon said.
Li Xiandao’s brow rose up. Regarding hell?
“What does hell have to do with you?” Li Xiandao asked.
“I am the demon from hell. Long ago, the Celestial World and the Nine Skies and Ten Lands were on the same level. Hell is where the dead go, so there were 10 yamas, black and white rulers, millions of yin soldiers, and many bodhisattvas…” The demon said.
“I know about all that.” Li Xiandao said calmly.
18 levels of hell, 10 yamas, black and white, millions of yin soldiers… Li Xiandao had read all about that in the Ten Thousand Country Book Depository.
“I am the demon in hell and I know some secrets. I also know about a treasure.” The demon said anxiously.
“If you want to talk about that, then I am interested.” When Li Xiandao heard about a treasure, he became very excited.
