After absorbing three more times and being struck by lightning three more times, my cultivation only reached the mid-stage of the Human Immortal Upper Realm. At this rate, it might take two more cycles of absorbing and lightning strikes to achieve Great Success.

His mind wandered back to meeting the Demon Path.

Seeing his regretful expression, Li Hongjiu, who was floating over gracefully like an immortal, asked, "What's wrong? Did Mr. Li here not serve you well enough?"

Shi Chun quickly replied, "No, no, Brother Jiu, don't tease me. It's just that feeling has been blocked again, and there's no need for more strikes for now. If I regain that sensation, I might need to trouble you again."

Since he would definitely need help in the future, he had to declare it in advance to avoid finding excuses later on.

Li Hongjiu said, "That's just as well. No matter how you borrow power, if you endlessly go on like this, my not fully recovered body will soon be overwhelmed."

After speaking, he casually waved his sleeve, and the surrounding gusts of wind gradually subsided, the supporting force diminished, and both their bodies began to slowly descend.

Of course, Li Hongjiu finally voiced his curiosity, "By the way, what exactly did you comprehend?"

This, well, Shi Chun found it difficult to explain to him, but since the person helped him so much, leaving him in the dark as if being used freely wouldn't be right.

After some consideration, Shi Chun suddenly conjured a sword out of thin air and, with the other hand, picked up an ordinary large iron block, about half the size of a table.

Whoosh, the iron block was thrown away, and when it reached over ten zhang away, Shi Chun slashed with the sword from a distance.

Buzz, the sword energy went with a tremor, directly hitting the iron block.

Boom, a loud explosion resounded.

That's right, it wasn't the ordinary sound of a Sword Gang hitting, but the sound of an explosion.

Shi Chun withdrew the sword after just one slash.

Li Hongjiu, noticing the unusual sound, flickered his gaze and grabbed the rapidly disfigured flying iron block from a distance.

Upon examining the deformed iron block, it was evident that it wasn't the splitting caused by a sharp Sword Gang nor the deformation from a mighty attack's impact, but rather the clear fissures formed by an explosive rip.

Judging by the complete squashed deformation of the iron block, it was slashed open, followed by an explosion tearing it apart in all directions.

"Interesting, it seems there is indeed some comprehension," Li Hongjiu nodded slightly. However, that was all. He didn't think much of techniques solely emphasizing attack power; he valued enlightenment in Dao more.

Yet, everyone follows their own path and destiny; he never forces others or lectures them about the great ways of Dao.

To Shi Chun, such attack power was something he could already wield upon breaking through to the Human Immortal Minor Realm. In the High Martial Great Success Realm, the explosive blue qi could only be applied to the sword, but after breaking through to the Human Immortal Realm, it could be wielded from afar.

Now with his cultivation in the Human Immortal Upper Realm, the green qi output from his inner Magic Source has become denser, providing stronger explosive defensive power, and the range of remote explosive attacks has increased.

These details did not need to be explained to Li Hongjiu.

After the two flew out of the gradually dissipating wind and mist, Li Hongjiu asked again, "How was Bai Qiru's husband able to neutralize the Demon Dew's poison?"

Shi Chun replied, "That's their secret. They saved you, so don't endanger them. If anyone asks in the future, just say you neutralized it yourself. Anyway, everyone thinks you have high enlightenment; whatever story you make up will do."

Li Hongjiu pondered for a moment before saying, "The poison of Demon Dew isn't particularly strong; its potency lies in confusing the mind and seizing the opportunity. After this experience, I do have some enlightenment, and if poisoned by it again, I might be able to neutralize it."

"..." Shi Chun was speechless and found this guy really was extraordinary. Was this even possible?

Of course, this topic reminded him of something, so he asked back, "When you were poisoned and muddle-headed, I'm not sure if I heard wrong. It seemed you mentioned Dong Liangyu might neutralize Demon Dew. Were you referring to Dong Liangyu on the second floor of the Book Collection Pavilion?"
