The formations from the Xuantian Academy were indeed quite renowned. The Returning Origin Sect had once paid a significant sum to purchase a set of formations from the Xuantian Academy. While the Xuantian Sword Dance wasn’t an overly complex formation and was primarily used for performance, it still represented a point of pride for the Xuantian Academy.
The Western Sea Clan was not significantly different from the Northern Sea Clan. Among the Western Sea Clan visitors, the leader was a woman with dragon-like horns on her head, resembling the Little Dragon Maiden. Her strength should also be at the Refining Void level. “The sea clan has so many beautiful women,” someone could be heard commenting.
“Yes, Li Su has taken two Nascent Soul stage beauties from the Northern Sea Clan. I wonder if it’s true.”
“It’s true. Several second-grade immortal sects even offered gifts when he took in the second Nascent Soul stage sea clan member.”
“I’m planning to visit the Northern Realms next year. There have probably been many changes in the Northern Realms over the years.”
Some cultivators continued to watch the performances while discussing various topics, and Li Su’s name came up occasionally in their conversations. Finally, the Western Sea Clan’s performance concluded, and the congratulatory acts presented by the qualified immortal sects for Peak Master Dieyun ended. With the birthday celebration reaching this point, it was nearing its conclusion.
“Dieyun Senior, I also have a performance to offer you,” Li Su’s voice rang out. He hadn’t initially prepared a performance, but seeing that Peak Master Dieyun had seated him alongside the Refining Void experts and that these Refining Void experts had all presented acts, he decided to participate as well.
Of course, he wanted to make his contribution. Li Su’s words captured the attention of everyone present. Peak Master Dieyun hadn’t expected Li Su to prepare a performance and couldn’t help but reveal a sense of anticipation.
“Friend Li, please,” Xiaoyu extended an invitation. Amid the gaze of the multitude, Li Su stepped onto the central platform.
At this moment, he had a somewhat otherworldly appearance, giving the impression of an immortal descending to the mortal realm. Many female cultivators’ eyes sparkled as they looked at him. Then, Li Su’s fingers lightly plucked the strings of the ancient Qin. He didn’t need to tune it. He began playing immediately. The zither Qin produced a clear and crisp sound, and the very first note sent shivers through people’s hearts.
This first note alone would have left them in a trance if any mortals were present. Following that, Li Su plucked the second string, and one note after another combined to form a harmonious and incredibly beautiful melody. “Such a beautiful melody!” Many cultivators were enchanted by the music, their souls filled with joy.
Some female cultivators were particularly mesmerized, as Li Su’s performance showcased his male charm fully with the fluidity of his movements. At this moment, he seemed like a walking beacon of charisma, radiating his appeal to the fullest.
Combined with the ethereal music, its appeal to women was exceptionally powerful. Not long after the performance began, most of the cultivators in the audience were fully immersed in it.
This music…
At this moment, a few of the Refining Void experts had expressions of astonishment on their faces.
While the cultivators below the Refining Void level had become completely captivated by Li Su’s performance, lost in the enchanting melodies, the Refining Void experts had uncovered something more profound. Li Su’s performance wasn’t just ordinary music.
Between his every gesture and movement, he seamlessly merged with the harmony of the universe. He used the ancient Qin to set the heavens and earth in motion, using the heavens and earth as his instrument. His music had transformed into a genuine celestial sound. This level of mastery was not something an ordinary person could achieve.
Nascent Soul cultivators had already come into contact with the rules and energies of the heavens and earth. Refining Void cultivators could begin to harness the power of the heavens and earth. Utilizing this power for attacks and precision control over it were indeed two different matters. When attacking, enhancing one’s attacks through the influence of the celestial rules could significantly increase the power of their strikes.
However, what Li Su was doing, using the strings of his zither to invoke the heavens and earth, treating them as his instrument, and playing melodies that awakened so many cultivators present, was truly extraordinary. This feat was something no Nascent Soul cultivator could achieve.
Li Su withdrew his hands from the zither strings, but the lingering music echoes continued filling the surroundings.
Inside the Returning Origin Sect, many cultivators smiled, still lost in the music, not yet awakening from its enchantment. Peak Master Dieyun and the few Refining Void experts also remained silent, not wanting to disturb the many cultivators still immersed in the music.
It wasn’t until Li Su put away the ancient Qin several minutes later that someone finally snapped out of the trance. “Senior Li, please accept my salute!” A Nascent Soul cultivator suddenly flew out and bowed deeply to Li Su. Li Su turned his gaze towards him. The Nascent Soul cultivator appeared quite excited at this moment.
“Senior Li, your celestial music had me entranced as if I were listening to the music of the Dao. Unexpectedly, it broke through the bottleneck I had been struggling with for many years. Senior, your great kindness, I will forever remember!” The Nascent Soul cultivator exclaimed loudly.
This Nascent Soul cultivator’s voice also woke the others, who all looked at him with a tinge of envy. They were also amazed by the magic of Li Su’s performance. They had all heard this piece with their ears and had never experienced such a complete state of trance and ecstasy before.
Some cultivators felt that Li Su’s performance had significantly improved their spiritual souls and mental states. This Nascent Soul later-stage cultivator, He Que, gained the most, as he had managed to break through his bottleneck thanks to Li Su’s piece. It was no wonder he was so excited and grateful.
The Head of the Xuantian Academy also couldn’t help but exclaim. The woman from the Western Sea Clan, a practitioner of Refinement Void cultivation, also showed a deep admiration in her gaze. She seemed to want to say something, but in the end, she remained silent.
The Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect couldn’t stop praising Li Su. The expression on the face of the Peak Master of the Dieyun was already filled with admiration. She was about to speak when, in the sky, a long streak of white light rapidly approached.
Due to the opening of the Grand Formation of the Guiyuan Sect today, the white light flew directly in, heading straight for Li Su. This was a messaging stone!
With a single gesture, Li Su caught the messaging stone. Then, his gaze became more intense. The woman from the Sect Master’s family finally took action, which was significant, even bigger than what Li Su had anticipated.
Indeed, the other side had deployed Refinement Void cultivators, but not just one – there were two!
At this moment, these two Refinement Void cultivators were attacking the protective formation of the Flying Immortal Sect!
