Chapter 18 I am Long Aotian_2

```

"That woman! She seemed quite capable when she was fishing." Cao Zhen felt a bit regretful that he had been so focused on fishing that day that he completely forgot to ask for her name, or which peak she was from.

```

```

Cao Zhen thought it over, but he didn't even know the name of the old man who fished for dragons. The only expert he knew was BeiChen Ying!

```

```

But... the other party probably already had the cultivation base of the Earthly Immortal Secret Realm, not just the level of the Cultivation Secret Realm. Their realms were separated by such a vast difference, that he feared even if he managed to connect as a user, he could only be a potential user.

```

```

"If only I knew that woman's name." Cao Zhen couldn't help but recall the enchanting figure of Li Ke by the banks of Starfall Lake.

```

```

In the midst of the Cloud Sea, the image of Li Ke appeared and asked, "Do you wish to connect to Li Ke, the top disciple of Vermilion Bird Peak?"

```

```

"Her name is Li Ke? It's her! Connect!" Cao Zhen was overjoyed. It turned out that as long as he had seen the person's face, the Cloud Sea could identify who they were!

```

```

User: Li Ke

```

```

Gender: Female

```

```

Cultivation Base: Golden Core Stage, Perfect Fulfillment

```

```

Cao Zhen was a bit surprised by the level of her realm. Vermilion Bird Peak was one of the Top Ten Peaks, and that woman, Li Ke, seemed extraordinary. It wouldn't surprise anyone if her realm was the Wind and Fire Life-Death Tribulation.

```

```

Indeed, Golden Core Perfect Fulfillment is very strong because it is generally rare for somebody to reach Great Perfection with nine pills and then unify them into one. To form ten pills and achieve unification is truly a sign of a rare talent.

```

```

Yet this level of cultivation might not be particularly high at Vermilion Bird Peak, so why was she characterized as the top disciple? And looking at her usual demeanor, she seemed to have an air of distinction about her.

```

```

Status: Top Disciple of Vermilion Bird Peak

```

```

Expertise: Flame

```

```

Talent: Bi Fang Fire Body

```

```

Total Cultivation Experience Points: 500,000

```

```

Extra Experience Points: 5,000

```

```

Alchemy Level: 9

```

```

Talisman Level: 9

```

```

Array Level: 9

```

```

Divine Skills: Heavenly Fire Path Level 40, Glazed Glass Vajra Body Level 40, Weak Water...

```

```

Cao Zhen looked at Li Ke's ten core Divine Skills. Except for Weak Water Ocean, which was only level 39 and inherently countered her attribute, all the others had reached the full level for her realm.

```

```

"Each one actually surpasses the quality of ordinary spells. Aside from Weak Water, they are all full level for this realm. Does she intend to level them all up to full?" Cao Zhen didn't understand but didn't ponder further, he just laughed when his attention shifted to the 5,000 experience points.

```

```

"One hundred experience points to exchange for the Five-thunder Righteous Method." Cao Zhen finished the sentence, and Li Ke's extra experience points dropped to 4,900. Then he looked at the numerical value on Cao Zhen's document panel.

```

```

Level 2 Administrator: Cao Zhen

```

```

Divine Skills: Five-thunder Righteous Method Level 8.

```

It was clear! With nearly full level cultivation theory knowledge, as long as the proficiency was there, the Five-thunder Righteous Method didn't need much experience to rapidly improve.

Cao Zhen knew that the higher the level required, the more experience would be needed, so he directly took out five hundred experience points, and the Five-thunder Righteous Method instantly reached level 20, breaking through the pinnacle that could only be practiced by those with Great Completion in the Immortal Bridge Realm.

Cao Zhen tried using the power of five Immortal Bridges and ten Dao Platforms to stimulate the Five-thunder Righteous Method and found that it could indeed be stimulated, only that the consumption of mana was much more than estimated.

Clearly, the existence of ten perfect Dragon and Tiger Dao Platforms plus five Dragon and Tiger Immortal Bridges could exert the highest mana power of their realm.

That is to say, even if faced with an opponent with ten Immortal Bridges, he himself would still have the power to fight, but compared to someone with Perfect Completion in the Immortal Bridge Realm, he probably only had the maximum level Five-thunder Righteous Method, so the chances of truly winning in battle might not be great.

After all, even if the Five-thunder Righteous Method is considered to be a powerful Divine Skill, it is still only one type of Divine Skill. Those with Perfect Completion in the Immortal Bridge Realm might have more than two, or even three to five full level Divine Skills.

Those who can cultivate to Perfect Fulfillment in a certain realm must be geniuses, so it's better not to underestimate any genius.

"In that case..." Cao Zhen took another six hundred from Li Ke's extra experience points and put it on Dragon and Tiger Golden Body, and found that this Dragon and Tiger Golden Body only reached level 16.

It was clear! The strength of Dragon and Tiger Golden Body must be above that of Five-thunder Righteous Method, otherwise the same amount of experience wouldn't result in one reaching level 20 and the other only level 16.

With another 300 extra experience points down, Dragon and Tiger Golden Body also entered the full level state, the pinnacle that could be cultivated at level 20 of the Immortal Bridge Period.

Cao Zhen didn't rush to use the remaining 3,500 experience points. If he wasn't mistaken, if he were to take a Small Bodhi Pill to increase wisdom, the experience needed to upgrade any Divine Skill or Alchemy would be reduced significantly, and the level could increase faster.

"From now on, the cultivation of Divine Skills and improvement of skills like Alchemy will use extra experience. For increases in cultivation strength, go with a fast-paced medicine consumption approach." Cao Zhen set a tone for himself and then planned to rest for a while.

After all, immediately after closing up he had cultivated two spells to the pinnacle of his current realm, which would certainly be suspicious; hence, pretending to be in seclusion for a few days was the best strategy.

"Why can't Weak Water Ocean always reach the fulfilment of Golden Core Unity?"

A self-talking voice came out from the document of Li Ke, and at the same time, in the sea of clouds, her figure appeared leaning on the changing massive body of her black cat, lazily frowning and pondering without maintaining her usual imposing image.

This woman didn't maintain her cool and indifferent demeanor in private? Cao Zhen watched the image of Li Ke in the cloud sea with surprise and murmured softly, "Are there also video files stored in the document?"

The cloud sea's voice came out, "This is not a stored video file; this is live video. Level 2 administrators can have deeper communication with designated users."

"Communication? Video?" Cao Zhen was curious, having thought the cloud could only backup files but never expected it could also conduct live communication.

"Level 2 administrators can only do voice communication," the cloud sea answered quickly. "The daily communication duration is one minute, the rest of the time, level 2 administrators can only watch the other party's situation."

Cao Zhen silently stared at Li Ke in the cloud sea and did some calculations. According to the cloud sea, as long as the other party practiced, he could receive a certain amount of extra experience, but if the other party made a breakthrough or improvement, perhaps it could generate even more extra experience?

"That's because there's an error in your method of cultivating Weak Water." Cao Zhen immediately began to experiment and lowered his voice, making it sound ancient.

Li Ke, who had previously been leaning against her pet cat without any proper posture, suddenly heard a voice in her mind, and that voice carried an ancient and desolate tone, subconsciously she sat straight up, recovering her usual cool and detached demeanor and said seriously, "I don't know which Dao Companion is jesting with me? Would you please show yourself?"

Seeing Li Ke's reaction returning to her usual coolness, Cao Zhen couldn't help but smile. So this woman actually had concerns about her public image?

"I am the ancient cultivator Long Aotian. By chance, I was trapped within an Ancient Killing Array and today, finally, I have broken a corner of the Great Formation. I can converse with the outside world for thirty breaths a day. The Xuan Mirror within the Formation happens to be connected to you. Seeing you, the junior, troubled in cultivation advancement, I specially offer you guidance..."

Cao Zhen knew that if he told the other party he was the Peak Master of Four Treasures Peak, she wouldn't believe any cultivation guidance he provided afterward, and if she really came looking for him, wouldn't the secret of China Cloud be compromised?
