Chapter 18: Digging Up The GraveNôvelDrama.Org content.
After his successful breakthrough into the Distant Shore Plane, Li Qingshan was in a bright mood, admiring the flowers in the garden.
He returned to the bamboo hut and made more tea while enjoying the scenery from his porch.
He was delighted.
He thought, "Even before he was disabled, the original owner of this body had only achieved the peak of the Ascension Plane. And now, it just took me a little more than a year to surpass him.
"Although my body cultivation is still developing, from now on, I shall be more diligent with cleaning the steles in the Stele Forest so that I can comprehend more powerful techniques. I need to equip myself better and try to cultivate my body into fruition."
Li Qingshan sank deep into thought while drinking his tea, contemplating his next steps.
He would need to cultivate his body further as if it were a towering tree. Next, he would have to train even more with various techniques. But, as long as he continued on this course, he was confident that he could surpass all the top-tier masters in this world.
He would be able to achieve his ambition without killing or looting the treasures of others and just by remaining confined within Repentance Cliff.
He set his first goal-which was to gain insight into the Saint Plane.
Satisfied with his plans, Li Qingshan sipped some tea and watched the heavy downpour.
The little fox had also been observing Li Qingshan from a distance.
She watched as he emerged from the bamboo hut.
She watched as he comprehended the Great Path.
She continued to watch him as he managed to break through into the Distant Shore Plane.
She also witnessed the various flowers blossoming in the process.
The little fox was stunned.
How could this man, who was sort of her neighbor, be so powerful?
He comprehended the Great Path amidst the rain and caused the flowers to blossom. But, when he broke into the Distant Shore Plane, the three terrifying illusory figures behind his back seemed even more frightening than the punishments she had witnessed in the Monster Refining Tower.
The little fox felt even more afraid of him now.
If not for the rain, she wanted badly to escape and hide. She did not want to see Li Qingshan again.
When Li Qingshan saw the shivering little fox, he stared at her without a word.
The little one is quite pitiful. Forty years of living in the Monster Refining Tower had left her scarred and traumatized.
And now that she was born, both her parents were dead, and she was left all alone. Moreover, since she had already gained sentience even while inside the womb, her distrust and wariness toward humans were already deeply rooted within her heart.
Li Qingshan had given up on trying to gain her trust. Instead, he merely hoped that the little fox could grow up safely under his watchful gaze. That way, he could do right by Senior Brother Shaobai and his wife.
A man and a fox stood in the rain. Each of them had different thoughts in their minds. S~Dalh the NøvilFir()nit website on Googll to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
The aura should have remained peaceful and quiet. However, Li Qingshan sensed something all of a sudden. He frowned slightly.
"Someone has come to Repentance Cliff," said Li Qingshan as his Grandmaster Domain picked up something.
Now that he was at the Distant Shore Plane, by right, it should be called the Distant Shore Domain.
Through his various breakthroughs in his cultivation, his Grandmaster Domain had also expanded. As a result, it also became more covert and could not be easily detected by others. Even those of the same plane as him would not be able to detect Li Qingshan's domain.
At the edge of Repentance Cliff, two people approached cautiously amidst the rain.
"The defense of the Yuhua Sect is too weak. Its strength is not even one-tenth of that of my Heavenly Path Sect. No wonder your sect has been on the wane in recent years." A disdainful voice spoke up. The speaker was a middle-aged man. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's as he scanned the surroundings. He had clearly come here with evil intentions.

Behind him was another middle-aged man. His belly was round, and his crown was bald. He had hair on both sides of his head, and on top, only a few strands of hair remained.
"What Senior Brother Zhou says is true. The defense of the Yuhua Sect is indeed very weak," the person seconded.
He was, in fact, an elder of the Yuhua Sect and was at the Distant Shore Plane. Now, he was actually conspiring with a member of the Heavenly Path Sect, and they had come to Repentance Cliff together. He even called the other party Senior Brother Zhou.
When Senior Brother Zhou of the Heavenly Path Sect heard this, he smiled contentedly. He then said, "The Yuhua Sect has no future. Now that you have brought me here to assist you in bringing back the stele of Wu Shaobai, your contribution will be sufficient to allow you to enter the Heavenly Path Sect. When the time comes, you will certainly be better off there than remaining here in this poor sect like the Yuhua Sect."
"I appreciate Senior Brother Zhou's recommendation. I will work hard to find the stele of Wu Shaobai. It should be easy to locate," said the fat, balding, middle-aged man excitedly.
Senior Brother Zhou gazed at the endless Stele Forest before him and snorted. He said, "Wu Shaobai humiliated my Heavenly Path Sect, and his crime is worth a thousand deaths. Unfortunately, my Heavenly Path Sect is currently focusing all our efforts on handling the aftermath of the destruction of the Monster Refining Tower. We do not have the energy to deal with the Yuhua Sect just yet, which is why I came here secretly to find Wu Shaobai's stele and dig up his grave. Even if he is dead, I will bring him back to the Heavenly Path Sect and make him pay for his crimes."
"Wu Shaobai was my Eldest Senior Brother before. However, he did not know what was good for him, and it conflicted with the Heavenly Path Sect. Senior Brother Zhou, please follow me. I know that his stele is not far from the entrance of Repentance Cliff," said the fat, balding, middle-aged man respectfully.
"Lead the way. You have managed to lead me this far without alerting anyone. You have certainly made a major contribution. I will report this back to the sect and make you a disciple of the Heavenly Path Sect. That way, you can finally leave this poor sect," said Senior Brother Zhou with a sinister smile. His words were extremely disrespectful toward the Yuhua Sect.
The fat, balding middle-aged man felt deeply encouraged and worked even harder. He led Senior Brother Zhou of the Heavenly Path Sect into the forest to find Wu Shaobai's stele.
Li Qingshan sat on his porch and drank his tea. His eyelids were half-closed as a cold light flashed before them.
"It's the Heavenly Path Sect again!" he muttered.
He thought, "Senior Brother Shaobai and his wife are already dead. And yet, the Heavenly Path Sect still refuses to let them off the hook. So now, they are here to destroy his grave. They are just too overbearing, showing no sign of remorse whenever they hurt others. And yet, when they get hurt, they seek revenge relentlessly. They would even dig up the corpse of a dead man just to make him pay off his debt. This is tyranny!"
Initially, Li Qingshan thought that he could be calm enough to handle all matters now that he cultivated his mind regularly. Therefore, he should be able to not bat even an eyelid at ordinary matters. However, after he eavesdropped on the pair's conversation, he was left fuming with rage.
Their act of bullying had just gone too far!

The Heavenly Path Sect did not even reflect on their own cruelty of separating a married couple, suppressing Wu Shaobai's wife for 40 years, thus leaving a lasting impact on an unborn infant.
Only thoughts of revenge filled their heads ever since their Monster Refining Tower was destroyed.
Even when Wu Shaobai was a dead man, they intended to dig his corpse out of the grave and use it to deter their other enemies.
What enraged Li Qingshan even more, was that this traitor in the Yuhua Sect was willing to be a lackey for the Heavenly Path Sect. He was responsible for opening the passageway and allowing the enemy to enter the Yuhua Sect unhindered. With elders like this traitor, no wonder the Yuhua Sect was on the wane. He groveled to the Heavenly Path Sect. From the looks of it, he was even willing to bark like a dog when asked. This scum deserves nothing but death!
Li Qingshan's heart turned as cold as ice.
He despised traitors. The elder of the Yuhua Sect had access to unlimited resources, yet he decided to take advantage of his power to plot evil schemes against his own sect.
"You have snuck into Repentance Cliff, so don't blame me for not holding back," said Li Qingshan as his gaze turned cold.
He finished his tea and said in a low voice, "Five Ghosts, all of you have been holding back for the past few days. Now, you can finally let yourselves loose." His tone was icy cold. "Rumble."
Around the courtyard, the statues of the five Rakshasa moved. Then, in an instant, they turned into illusory figures and immediately dashed toward the enemy.
The Five Ghosts Life Claiming Technique was a very powerful technique. After the five ghosts were born and had cultivated the Five Emperors Demonic Technique, they were even more powerful than before. Presently, the five ghosts were on the Distant Shore Plane, just like Li Qingshan.
The five ghosts attacked and killed off the two Distant Shore Plane experts with ease.
As for Li Qingshan, he was still drinking tea as he watched the rain continue to fall. He paid no heed to these two intruders.
They were not even qualified for Li Qingshan to personally attack them.
They were unworthy!
