When Li Luo opened his somewhat heavy eyelids again, the familiar ceiling was imprinted on his eyes. He took two deep breaths, then twisted his neck and turned his head to look at the bedside.

  All he saw was a slender figure beside his bed, and it was indeed Jiang Qing'e.

  She leaned against the bedpost, her eyes slightly closed, as if resting, her absolutely beautiful and clean face reflecting a luster under the lamp light, her high-bridged nose seemed to be full of pride even in its curvature.

  Obviously, she has been taking care of him here all along, and doesn't know how long he has been unconscious.

  As he breathed more and more calmly, Jiang Qing'e seemed to have noticed something, suddenly opening her golden pupils staring at Li Luo who was also looking at her with his eyes open.

  Their eyes met for several breaths.

  Jiang Qing'e immediately revealed a smile and said, "Awake?"

  Li Luo nodded, then wanted to sit up, and Jiang Qing'e leaned forward to put a pillow behind him. Her soft hair floated across Li Luo's face, making his skin itch, and at the same time, his heart itched too.

  "Last night, you fainted in the Golden Hut during cultivation. Someone only discovered you when they came to clean up." Jiang Qing'e glanced at Li Luo and asked, "Did your cultivation go awry?"

  Li Luo smiled helplessly, and immediately sensed that a very intense weakness was emanating from every part of his body. He vaguely felt that his lifespan had not been depleted, but for some reason, he always felt an inexplicable emptiness.

  He must have lost something.

  Li Luo once again focused his mind on the second phase palace, and saw that the now empty phase palace was emitting a patch of emerald green color, filled with vigorous vitality.

  And in that greenness, there are deep yellow light spots surging, the two complement each other, making the vitality even more dense.

  Li Luo's second path of post-heavenly alchemy was successfully refined.

  It's just that this "Wood Earth" quality is extremely low, and it's actually the worst first-class product, but this is normal. Li Luo's ability to forge this acquired trigram is all thanks to Li Taixuan and Dantai Lan's leftover Small Wu Xiang Divine Wheel and various experiences. Being able to successfully refine it is already considered lucky, so there's no need to be greedy about its quality.

  Anyway, he can use the Spiritual Water and Mystic Light without any restrictions, so a massive upgrade is all that's needed next. Anyway, with the financial resources that can be mobilized in Dash City now, it would be very easy to raise his second acquired Heavenly Stature to 4th or 5th grade.

  Moreover, what surprised Li Luo even more was that in this second zodiac palace, there also existed a pale green zodiac seed.

  It's just that this kind of phase is only the size of a green bean, and it's several times smaller than the first phase palace. This is because the second phase palace has too weak a phase force.

  But as time goes on and Li Luo's power grows stronger, the seeds of the second phase will surely develop.

  Li Luo looked at this second phase of the palace's fate seed, but the more he looked, the more he loved.

  At this moment, he finally understood why it was said that the multiple palaces had an advantage, and that they would only begin to show up after being placed in the second later heaven.

  The existence of Xiang Li seeds can accelerate the absorption of energy between heaven and earth, which is an advantage that distinguishes Xiang Shi realm from Shi Yin realm.

  And now Li Luo has a bipolar species, which means that in his future cultivation, the speed at which he absorbs the energy of heaven and earth will be naturally stronger than others.

  This is equivalent to doubling the speed of cultivation.

  Also, the Xiang Gong is also a place to accommodate Xiang Li, it's equivalent to a container, and the volume of the container determines the upper limit of Xiang Li inside. Once the limit is reached, the growth of Xiang Li will become extremely difficult. At this time, perhaps one can only start trying to break through. If successful, one can naturally reach a higher level. However, if one cannot find an opportunity to break through, they can only stop at this level and begin a long period of tempering.

  Li Luo has now opened his second phase of palace, which means that the upper limit of the bearing power he can bear will far exceed that of people of the same level.

  Of course, the quality of one's Xing Qi determines the quality of the Xing Li seeds. The higher one's own Xing Qi quality is, the more likely it is that the condensed Xing Li seeds will be of high quality. Whether it's the speed at which they absorb heaven and earth energy or the upper limit of Xing Li they can withstand, it will far surpass those with low-quality Xing Qi.

  Someone like Jiang Qing'e, a ninth-rank Bright Appearance, Li Luo felt that he probably wouldn't be able to match her in various aspects until he evolved both of his acquired appearances to seventh rank.

  But this is already a huge advantage, as time goes by and the level increases, Li Luo's acquired destiny will gradually reveal its shocking potential to the world.

  "What are you smiling at?" Jiang Qing'e said somewhat irritably, because Li Luo's smile had already burst forth uncontrollably.

  Li Luoshen gave a mysterious smile, then stretched out his hand and grasped Jiang Qing's delicate small hand. Before she could react, a pale green aura slowly rose from the center of his palm.

  Jiang Qing's golden pupils suddenly froze, and at this moment, even she had a hint of shock on her cheeks that she couldn't hide.

  "Is this... the power of Mokusei?!"

  "What's going on? Aren't you a water sign?" Jiang Qing'e exclaimed.

  Li Luo smiled slyly and said: "Guess."

  Jiang Qing'e's eyes sparkled, and after a moment, she bit her red lips and said: "You broke through to the second stage of Xiang Gong in this breakthrough?"

  Li Luo thought for a moment and said, "Alright then."

  He didn't mention that he still had an empty palace for himself, so as not to give Jiang Qing'e too much of a shock.

  Jiang Qing'e stared blankly at Li Luo, then said: "This is still my first time seeing someone who really has a second phase palace before the Feng Hou border."

  "Li Luo, I knew you wouldn't be mediocre. Although you were previously a Void Spirit, you possess an even rarer talent. From now on, no one will think that you're what they call 'a dragon's father but a dog's son'."

  Her cheeks showed an absolutely beautiful smile, making Li Luo slightly dazed.

  "Qing'e sister, you're too moving," said Li Luo.

  Jiang Qing'e smiled slightly and said: "Li Luo, being moved is one thing, but if you touch my hand again, I'll hit you."

  Li Lu hastily withdrew his hand that was holding Jiang Qing'e's small hand and said indignantly, "Can't you give the injured person some benefits?"

  Jiang Qing glared at this ungrateful guy, she had been guarding here all night, what more benefits did he want?

  As the two were talking, the door was suddenly pushed open and Li Luo saw Niu Biao's shiny bald head poking in, holding a steaming bowl of soup.

  "Shaofu Zhu, you're awake?" Niu Biao exclaimed with joy as he saw Li Luosu wake up.

  Li Luo smiled and nodded, saying: "Thanks for your hard work, Uncle Biao."

  Niu Biao brought over a large bowl of nourishing soup and said, "Young Master, your body is too weak. This time you cultivated to the point of fainting, it feels like you need to eat more."

  Li Luo gazed at the large nourishing soup in front of him, and as the steam rose up, just taking a sniff made him feel a surge of warmth flowing through his body.

  It's obviously a special soup cooked by Niu Bibo for him.

  "Thanks, Uncle Biao." Li Luo thanked him and then picked up a mouthful of wine and drank it all in one gulp.

  The scalding hot soup entered his body, a wave of heat surged in, and it actually gradually dispelled some of the weakness.

  Niu Biao smiled and shook his head, then stretched out his greasy big hand, grasped Li Luo's wrist, and said: "Uncle Biao will take a look at what's going on."

  Li Luo didn't mind and said, "It's no big deal."

  Niu Bibo held Li Luo's hand, also didn't know what he was exploring, but after a while, both Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e saw the smile that had been hanging on his face suddenly gradually converged.

  For a moment, both of them were stunned.

  The atmosphere was stagnant for a moment, Niu Biao loosened his palm, looking at Li Luo, and a low voice echoed in the room.

  "This is no trivial matter, Governor."
