After thinking for less than a second, Li Dao looked at Angel Ying in front of him, put on a slightly conflicted look, and replied, "Uh, does that count as you?"
An angel over 30,000 years old, who has been a married woman, shouldn't be angry with me, right? After all, it was just a trivial dream.
“Cao Mengde has a fondness for married women, a legacy of Wei Wu. I didn’t expect you to have this taste.” Angel Ying gave Li Dao a meaningful look.
Li Dao shrugged.
Well, I guess I can't clear my name now, but there's no other way. To keep my cheat ability from being exposed, I'll just have to live up to Cao Cao's legacy! It's better than being a eunuch.
Moreover, although 30,000 years is a long age, according to Keisha's logic, even if it spans several million years, it would probably be just so-so.
"How is Sister Ying? Has the little Taoist priest woken up?" A gentle female voice came from outside, and then a slender hand pushed open the door, and Angel Canxing walked in.
At the same time, Xiao Wangchao also came in, following behind Angel Canxing, his bright and clear eyes looking at his master.
"Yes, I just woke up." Angel Ying nodded.
As Angel Canxing received Angel Ying's response, she also noticed Li Dao's gaze falling upon her.
"What's wrong?" Angel Ying continued to ask.
Clearly, as a long-time comrade-in-arms and sister, Angel Canxing has something to say.
really.
Angel Canxing said, "They just called from China. They'll be coming for an interview tomorrow and want the young Taoist to prepare his remarks in advance."
words?
Li Dao suddenly burst out laughing.
Angel Ying, Angel Canxing, and a bewildered little Wang Chao looked over, not understanding why the little Taoist priest (master) was laughing.
"Master, are you sick? Why are you suddenly laughing?" Xiao Wangchao asked curiously.
After he finished speaking, the room fell silent.
Li Dao suppressed his smile and looked at Xiao Wangchao.
It seems I've been too lax in disciplining you. After tomorrow's interview, you can start practicing taking a beating!
As the saying goes, you must learn to take a beating before you can hit someone.
Your master will give you a complete childhood.
Facing the gazes of Angel Ying and Angel Canxing, Li Dao shrugged and asked inexplicably, "When you traveled to inhabited planets, what was your attitude towards those people?"
“Peaceful and friendly,” Angel Ying replied, not understanding the meaning behind Li Dao’s words.
"And what about them?" Li Dao asked again.
Angel Ying paused for a moment, then exchanged a glance with Angel Canxing beside her, and they both smiled.
They all understood the meaning behind the young Taoist priest's words.
Chapter 88 Thunderous Body Tempering!
That day, Li Dao said goodbye to the two women and left the villa, preparing to head to an area with a strong magnetic field to draw upon lightning to temper his body.
Now that he had reached a conclusion in the fantasy world, he should go and try it himself. He would never achieve great things if he was timid and hesitant, especially since his Dao heart was firm.
Angel Ying accompanied them, responsible for their safety.
Angel Canxing stayed at the villa to take care of Xiao Wangchao.
Li Dao did not make this choice randomly; he was going to Kunlun Mountain, which was known as the "Ancestor of Ten Thousand Mountains".
Kunlun Mountain is described in many myths, legends and folk tales, and it is said that the Queen Mother of the West lives in the mountain.
Many myths and legends have been passed down to this day and are still widely known, giving Kunlun Mountain a thin veil of mist, making it mysterious and colorful, hazy and ethereal, like a true fairy mountain on earth.
With so many legends surrounding it, if it truly is the "Ancestor of Ten Thousand Mountains," then its magnetic field must be incredibly powerful.
Because the area is often shrouded in thunderclouds, the roar of thunder can be heard from the mountains every day, like the ferocious roar of a thunder dragon. Moreover, one can see a dazzling, shimmering expanse of light and lightning in the distance.
The local mountain people dared not approach.
Li Daofei arrived here in less than half an hour. After inquiring about the situation of the local mountain people, he and Angel Ying finally stepped into this legendary blessed mountain.
hum!
As soon as Li Dao stepped into the Kunlun Mountains region, he immediately felt a faint but powerful suppression coming from all directions, trying to suppress his extremely strong geomagnetic field.
Angel Ying also had this feeling, but because of her divine body and the Dark Dimension Engine, this feeling was very faint for her.
Li Dao raised an eyebrow and released his powerful magnetic field, instantly disrupting the surrounding magnetic field.
"Boom!"
At that very moment, as if sensing Li Dao's provocation, a portion of the Kunlun Mountain's sky-covering thunderclouds converged towards him, gathering above his head.
Upon seeing this, Angel Ying was about to raise her hand to redefine the situation, but Li Dao pressed down her fair, lotus-root-like arm with his large hand and said calmly, "No need, such lightning will not harm me."
When Angel Ying heard Li Dao say this, she first looked at the dense and gloomy dark clouds overhead, then at the other party's indifferent expression, and then smiled, withdrew her hand, and took a few steps back.
The two continued their journey towards the summit of the ancestral mountain.
Along the way, the clouds and mist drifted, the vegetation was lush and green, the cries of monkeys echoed in the air, and the calls of birds and beasts filled the air, creating a scene of a paradise untouched by the mundane world.
"The wisps of mist, hazy and dreamlike, the songs of birds and beasts, open and melodious—no wonder you Chinese define this place as a legendary immortal mountain; it truly lives up to its name," Angel Ying remarked as she admired the scenery along the way.
Li Dao shook his head: "Kunlun Mountain is defined as a sacred mountain because of those popular myths and legends, such as Yi shooting down the sun, the Queen Mother bestowing elixirs, and the Peach Banquet, which have been passed down from ancient times to the present."
"And the origin of these stories lies here, passed down orally, compiled into books, and passed from generation to generation, eventually forming colorful anecdotes that add a mysterious touch to the Kunlun Mountains."
They encountered no ferocious birds or beasts along the way, and there was nothing unusual. As if they knew the two were in danger, the birds and beasts all retreated in advance and dared not linger.
Danger perception is an innate quality in every animal, including humans, but it has gradually degenerated because our ancestors were the terrifying upright apes.
After all, on Earth, humans are the masters!
Li Dao's cultivation was a process in which he gradually rediscovered this perception.
Such actions as acting on impulse, sensing danger before the autumn wind blows, or avoiding danger without hearing or seeing it all fall under the category of anticipating danger.
Because the mountain air is often obscured by thunderclouds, it cannot dissipate, so even in the hot summer, there is a flow of cold air at the peak of the Kunlun Mountains.
Li Dao and Angel Ying were both very fast. They hadn't been chatting for long when they reached the halfway point of the ancestral mountain. The cold air currents flowed and swirled, but they couldn't stop the two of them from moving forward.
The summit of the ancestral mountain was shrouded in thick layers of thunderclouds, and one could even see flashes of lightning, like thunder dragons swimming and churning within them.
Each one was so shocking that one dared not go any further.
But for Li Dao and Angel Ying, it was just a comfortable bath; mere lightning posed no threat to them.
Soon, Li Dao and Angel Ying passed through the thunderclouds and arrived at the summit of the Kunlun Mountains. The view was boundless, the thunderclouds disappeared, leaving only the blue sky and white clouds drifting in the distance.
"So what are you planning to do here?" Until now, Angel Ying had no idea what Li Dao was planning. Only after arriving at their destination did she choose to ask the question that had been bothering her.
"You'll find out soon enough. You should move away; I'm about to begin." Li Dao stood atop the mountain, his eyes reflecting the colors ahead. Upon hearing this, he turned to Angel Ying and said.
He looked very mysterious.
Angel Ying nodded out of curiosity, then manifested wings and flew away from the mountaintop. She sat in mid-air with her legs crossed, as if sitting in a chair, but her gaze was fixed on Li Dao, who stood with his hands behind his back.
After a second of eye contact, Li Dao looked away, his boundless blood and energy soaring to the sky, a powerful aura spreading outwards, his body exuding a natural charm, and his aura and magnetic field fully activated.
In the fantasy world, the size of thunderclouds is related to the size of Li Dao's magnetic field range.
Therefore, at this moment, Li Dao is like a human-shaped magnetic field, wantonly interfering with the magnetic field within a radius of dozens of miles, almost covering the area of a prefecture-level city.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"..."
Thunderclouds rolled in from dozens of miles around, influenced by a powerful magnetic field, resembling thunder dragons gathering from all directions, until finally transforming into a vast and even more terrifying deep black thundercloud.
Pitch black, gloomy, oppressive, terrifying—this thundercloud encompasses all of humanity's fears, making one tremble with fear and feel their scalp tingle.
Upon seeing Li Dao's words, "I'll know later," Angel Ying opened her Eye of Insight and her expression changed drastically, turning solemn. She wanted to fly forward and take him away.
But it was too late.
The thunderclouds began to gather from all directions in less than a moment, and when the thunderclouds took shape and the extremely concentrated black lightning struck down, it was only a matter of seconds.
"Boom!"
"Roar!!"
The thunder dragon slashed down, and a terrifying thunderous sound echoed in the extremely oppressive space, stirring the burning passion in Li Dao's heart.
At the same time, it also shook Angel Ying's heart, which had never wavered despite the long war!
"Come!" Li Dao's voice also surged forth, mingling and clashing with the thunderous dragon's roar, sounding like a tiger's howl and a dragon's cry.
With a bang, Li Dao's hairpin shattered into several pieces, his glossy, resilient black hair fell wildly, his Taoist robe fluttered, his eyes were solemn yet gleamed with determination, and his body stood tall like a pine tree, without flinching in the slightest.
“Re-enter the space…” Angel Ying saw that it was too late and wanted to use programming to modify the Thunder Dragon, but was interrupted by a clear voice: “No need, I know what I’m doing.”
The voice belonged to Li Dao, whose five senses were so sharp that he could hear the sound of ants walking within a radius of tens of meters and could also observe the number of dust particles.
Li Dao naturally noticed and sensed Angel Ying's attempt to intervene, so he chose to speak up and dissuade her, otherwise the trip might not go smoothly.
Upon hearing this, Angel Ying said helplessly, "Cancel the redefinition of space."
“I can stay out of it, but if you can’t hold on, speak up immediately. The Heavenly King has ordered me to protect you, and I can’t let you die before me,” Angel Ying said after closing the data.
"Um……"
"boom!!"
Li Daogang let out a nasal sound, and his entire body was instantly swallowed by the black lightning dragon. The lightning was dazzling and extremely bright. The stone on the ground where he stood shattered and turned black in an instant.
If someone were to observe from a distance at this moment, they would be able to see that dazzling pillar of lightning, black yet shimmering with lightning.
Angel Ying looked solemn, his Eye of Insight always open, worried that Li Dao would be struck dead by the lightning.
Thunderclouds continued to churn for dozens of miles around, accompanied by rolling thunder and flickering electric arcs, as if another bolt of lightning could strike at any moment.
"It seems my prediction was successful!" The next second, the black lightning gradually disappeared, and Li Dao's voice came out. Then, his figure gradually appeared.
However, Li Dao's thick black hair was gone, and the places where hair grew, such as his eyebrows, had also disappeared along with the black lightning. There was even a faint smell of burning.
His whole body was completely naked.
