Chapter 57: Divine Bridge Realm
"Li Zhi, this is the holy spring water you wanted."

When they met on the road, Ye Fan did not reminisce about the past with Li Zhi, but immediately gave Li Zhi the water from the sacred spring that he had promised, thus completing the transaction between the two.

The container for the divine spring water was not the huge animal skin water bag that Li Zhi gave Ye Fan that year, but a jade bottle filled with fifty or sixty kilograms of divine spring water.

The reason why Ye Fan was so generous to give Li Zhi fifty or sixty kilograms of the sacred spring water was thanks to the huge water bag that Li Zhi gave him.

If he hadn't carried the water bag with him, he would probably have only been able to bring out more than ten kilograms of the holy spring water from the ancient forbidden area.

At that time, after Ye Fan had experienced the pursuit of the Jiang family knights, he planned to enter the ancient holy land to pick holy medicine. Outside the restricted area, he encountered a powerful force who were going to pick holy medicine.

Those people gave him a jade bottle that could hold a mountain, and asked him to hold the water from the holy spring.

However, the Jade Bottle was under great pressure on the holy mountain in the ancient forbidden area and could only hold about ten kilograms of water.

Finally, Ye Fan remembered the huge water bag that Li Zhi gave him, and finally filled more than 200 kilograms of divine spring water from the divine spring pool and brought it out of the restricted area.

Sometimes, physical storage is more reliable than the Sumeru space method.

This is why Ye Fan had the confidence to directly give Li Zhi fifty or sixty kilograms of the divine spring water.

Looking at the jade bottle in Ye Fan's hand, Li Zhi instantly appeared in front of him and reached out to take the jade bottle away.

The whole process was completed in the blink of an eye, and the speed was so fast that even Ye Fan was surprised.

When he opened the bottle, a strong life essence dissipated. Li Zhi was overjoyed and said, "With this divine spring water, I can be promoted to the Divine Bridge realm in just half a month."

Seeing this, Ji Ziyue also showed a curious look and said, "Little boy, you used the water from the sacred spring to heal my wounds before?"

Ye Fan ignored Ji Ziyue and continued to ask: "Li Zhi, why are you here?"

After Li Zhi put away the jade bottle, he briefly said, "Last year, I was fortunate enough to meet Princess Yan Ruyu of the demon race. I exchanged three drops of the emperor's blood from her, and then I underwent a transformation here. I didn't expect that after the transformation, not only did I not grow taller, but my body became two years younger."

Then, Li Zhi said to Ye Fan: "Ye Fan, if you want to grow up quickly, don't practice the "Eternal Life Skill" for the time being. I suspect that practicing the "Eternal Life Skill" will prevent people from growing up."

Since completing his second transformation, Li Zhi was surprised to find that his growth rate had become almost half that of his peers.

Originally, there were already eight marks on his Wheel of Life, which meant that his body was already eight years old. But after using the Green Emperor's blood to undergo a second transformation, two of the marks on the Wheel of Life magically disappeared, and it became six marks again.

Moreover, the seventh mark on the Wheel of Life appeared very slowly. More than half a year had passed since he completed his second transformation, but the seventh mark had not yet reached one-third of the length of the other six marks.

In other words, the time leaves its mark on him only half as fast as that of his peers.

Li Zhi guessed that this was the combined effect of the longevity technique he practiced and his second transformation using the Green Emperor's blood.

It is not known whether it was the Great Dao of the Green Emperor contained in the blood of the Green Emperor that affected the Art of Immortality, or whether the Art of Immortality captured the Great Dao laws contained in the blood of the Green Emperor.

Let the years slow down his impact.

Just like the small world evolved by the Green Emperor in the Desolate Tower, it can greatly slow down the aging of the human body.

Li Zhi had a vague guess in his mind that perhaps the effect of the bloodbath prescription was also involved.

Because of the prescription, the fragments of the Green Emperor's Avenue contained in the three drops of blood were inadvertently refined.

Then it took effect on Li Zhi.

Perhaps after reaching a certain level, this influence will disappear.

But now, the traces of time left on Li Zhi have been slowed down by half.

After waking up from deep enlightenment, Li Zhi discovered a clue after observing the changes in the Wheel of Life.

Before the second transformation, there was nothing special about the traces of time on Li Zhi's wheel of life. Every year, there would be one more trace. But now, it is almost equivalent to adding one more trace on his wheel of life every two years.

After listening to the conversation between Ye Fan and Li Zhi, Ji Ziyue on the side also said in surprise: "Little Taoist priest, you actually know that terrifying demon princess?"

The reason why Ji Ziyue said Yan Ruyu was scary was because when her seventh brother Ji Haoyue went to cause trouble for Yan Ruyu, he almost got into trouble on the spot.

The demon princess was so powerful that the Ji family's divine body suffered a great loss in just one encounter.

The reason why Ji Ziyue was captured by Ye Fan was because she was seriously injured after being hit by Yan Ruyu's terrifying vision, and then she was taken advantage of by Ye Fan.

After refining the core of the semi-divine medicine, that ray of immortality essence directly allowed her to awaken part of the Chaos Green Lotus bloodline. Yan Ruyu's strength underwent a drastic transformation, and the Demon Emperor's Nine Slashes exerted an extremely terrifying power in her hands.

Moreover, his physique has directly ranked among the best in the world, far beyond the reach of Ji Haoyue's divine body.

Especially when Yan Ruyu unfolded the Chaos Green Lotus that was upgraded from her Wheel Sea Vision Bitter Sea Golden Lotus, it seemed that a Chaos Green Lotus was floating between heaven and earth, emitting terrifying and boundless Chaos Sword Qi. After colliding with Ji Haoyue's Bright Moon Rising from the Sea Vision, it actually shattered the Bright Moon that Ji Haoyue had cultivated.

If Ji Haoyue didn't have the Ji family's ancient mirror protecting him, he would have been seriously injured by that blow.

Although Yan Ruyu finally chose to retreat, that terrifying strength was deeply imprinted in Ji Ziyue's heart.

She was very worried that her brother would never recover from this.

After hearing that Li Zhi was actually friends with the demon princess, Ji Ziyue became very curious about how the demon princess practiced. She was actually much more powerful than the legend said.

But no matter how she looked at Li Zhi, she couldn't see anything special about him.

He seemed like just an ordinary child of five or six years old.

Having watched the battle between the Ji family's divine body and Yan Ruyu before, Ye Fan's heart of a strong man was completely aroused. At this moment, he was also curious and asked: "Li Zhi, how did you get to know that demon princess? I was deceived by an unscrupulous Taoist priest before and fell into the hands of the demons, and was tortured by them."

Li Zhi looked at Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue, then said: "Master Duan took me there. Well, now I'm going to go into seclusion to practice, you guys continue." After that, whoosh, Li Zhi disappeared from the sight of Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue.

"Hey, little Taoist priest, please explain to me clearly, what should we continue with?" Ji Ziyue shouted hurriedly.

Ye Fan smiled and said, "Isn't it obvious? You little white rabbit, don't even think about escaping from me."

"You" Ji Ziyue looked at Ye Fan angrily, as if she wanted to bite him hard.

Li Zhi, who separated from Ye Fanji and Ziyue, did not go far. He dug a hole in the nearby forest and went in.

Afterwards, after sealing the entrance of the cave, Li Zhi took out the Hundred Herbs Map.

"Boss Tu, I'm going to go into seclusion. We agreed that I can only give you ten kilograms of the sacred spring water, no more."

With his current qualifications and realm improvement, the strange phenomena caused will be quite significant. Advancing outside is far less safe than advancing in the small world in the Hundred Herbs Map.

The Hundred Herbs Picture trembled slightly, as if it agreed to Li Zhi's offering.

Afterwards, Li Zhi took the bottle of magical spring water and walked into the small world in the picture.

First, pour ten kilograms of holy spring water on the roots of the longevity fruit tree as an offering for the retreat here.

Then Li Zhi sat under the longevity fruit tree and began to meditate.

After being watered with ten kilograms of the magic spring water, the longevity fruit tree instantly sprouted several tender buds, as if after a long time, its vitality was revived and it began to grow normally.

Li Zhi even drank thirty kilograms of the holy spring water in one breath to advance his realm.

A few days later, under the longevity fruit tree, the waves were surging and the vital energy was surging. Li Zhi's sea of ​​suffering penetrated his body, making the surrounding sky extremely mysterious. Soon a silver rainbow spurted out from the life spring, and a silver bridge across the sea of ​​suffering was built above the life spring.

That is the divine vein leading to the other side that the monks built on the Life Spring.

It also indicates that Li Zhi's cultivation has officially reached the Divine Bridge realm.

However, the newly born divine vein was a little short, and it still had a long way to go before it could cross the sea of ​​suffering and reach the other side. The divine bridge that needed a hundred meters to reach the other side was probably only three or five meters long at present.

However, with the birth of the divine vein, Li Zhi still felt some changes in his body.

It seemed as if the connection with the outside world became closer, and flying became an instinct.

When Li Zhi finished his retreat, only five or six pounds of the sacred spring water was left in the bottle.

In the outside world, Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue, who did not leave, also encountered trouble at this moment.

They were discovered by one of Ji Biyue's men.

After a fight, Ye Fan killed the disciple of the Ji family.

At the same time, Ji Ziyue also recovered his magic power.

In an instant, the offense and defense changed, and it was Ye Fan's turn to be suppressed by Ji Ziyue.

When Li Zhi ended his retreat and returned to the lakeside, he saw Ji Ziyue training Ye Fan.

Just listen to what they say and you'll know what they are doing.

"Men and women should not touch each other, don't do this..."

"I was molested by a bad girl..."

"Scream as loud as you can. It won't help even if you scream your throat out..."

"Don't be so depressed. Come on, little kid, give your sister a smile."

When Li Zhi saw that Ji Ziyue had really bitten Ye Fan and left several rows of clearly visible teeth marks, he finally felt that he was fed with the dog food they had sprinkled, and he coughed lightly.

The two boys and girls who were having fun were instantly awakened.

Li Zhi walked out from under the shade of the tree and said directly: "The time for Taixuan Sect to recruit disciples is coming soon, do you want to go?"

"How long have you been here?" Ye Fan asked in confusion.

"When you shouted that you were molested by a bad girl." Li Zhi said with a smile.

"Little Taoist, did you see what happened next?" Ji Ziyue said shyly with blushing cheeks.

Li Zhi said seriously, "Wulian Tianzun, I am a monk and I keep my mouth shut. I will not tell anyone about what happened between you two."

At the same time, Li Zhi sent a message to Ye Fan: "Ye Fan, it turns out that you like this tune, not bad, it has great potential. This little moon from the Ji family has a very sweet mouth, right?"

Things change, and finally it is Li Zhi's turn to tease Ye Fan.

Ye Fan was also very thick-skinned and didn't know what it meant to be shy. He directly counterattacked: "It's better than someone liking a young woman."

But Ji Ziyue was so shy that she almost jumped into the lake nearby.

Then, she threatened, "Little Taoist priest, if you dare to tell anyone about what happened today, I will never forgive you."
