After the battle ended, Li Luo and the Beiliang army quickly withdrew and returned to Thousand Fragrance City.
In the courtyard of the Governor's Mansion.
Li Luo sat in the courtyard, looking up at the bright moon about to set, with different colors flashing in his eyes.
"Murong Liao should be arriving soon..."
Li Luo's mouth raised slightly. Then his consciousness entered the system space.
He planned to use his reputation points to improve his cultivation level to the Returning Void Realm.
Looking at the 500,000 reputation points displayed in the system, Li Luo couldn't help but sigh.
Previously, he had captured many cities from King Qi.
But because of the Nanyun Kingdom's invasion, after capturing those cities, he had rushed to Thousand Fragrance City and did not have time to win over the people's hearts.
Otherwise, he would have had more than 500,000 reputation points now.
"Never mind... After driving away Nanyun and stabilizing Western Province, I will win over the people's hearts one by one..."
Li Luo sighed lightly, and began to chant inwardly:
"System, can I improve my cultivation level to the Returning Void Realm by using up all the reputation points?"
System: [Unable!]
[With the reputation points the host currently owns, cultivation level can only be improved to the peak of the Great Cultivation Realm.]
Li Luo frowned, and asked in puzzlement, "Why?"
"Previously, with 400,000 reputation points, I improved from the Ascension Soul Realm to the Great Cultivation Realm. Why can't I cross a whole realm now with 500,000 reputation points?"
System: [The host can treat reputation points as experience points. The higher the cultivation level, the more experience required to level up.]
[To advance to the Returning Void Realm, the host needs at least 700,000 reputation points.]
[Summoning is the same. As the host's realm improves, the reputation points required to exchange for summoning chances will also increase accordingly.]
[However, the higher the host's realm, the higher the cultivation level of the summoned powerhouses...]
"I see..."
After the system's explanation, Li Luo understood instantly.
Since he couldn't break through to the Returning Void Realm with reputation points.
He could only use them to summon instead.
"System, how many summons can 500,000 reputation points exchange for?"
Li Luo asked.
System: [Two times!]
Hearing the system's answer, Li Luo couldn't help but take a deep breath.
500,000 reputation could only exchange for two summoning chances now.
So as his cultivation level increased, each summon would cost 250,000 reputation points.
When his cultivation reached the Returning Void Realm in the future, wouldn't each summon require at least 500,000 reputation points?!
However, he soon felt at ease when he thought about the many cities and people in Western Province who had not yet become his fans.
The entire Western Province had a population of several million.
As long as he could win over the hearts of the people in Western Province, how could he lack reputation points?
"Exchange for two summoning chances!"
"Summon!"
Li Luo came back to his senses and chanted inwardly.
[Ding!]
[Exchange successful!]
[Ding!]
[Summon successful!]
Countless strange dimensional planes flashed rapidly before Li Luo's eyes.
[Ding!]
[Two summon chances, two successes!]
[Sui and Tang Dynasties plane!]
[Summoned character: Luo Yi (Yan Yun Eighteen Riders)]
Cultivation: Returning Void Realm Initial Stage.
Loyalty: 100%
Attached characters: Yan Yun Eighteen Riders
Cultivation: Great Cultivation Realm Intermediate Stage (all)
Loyalty: 100%
[Ding!]
[System Store plane!]
[Summoned treasure: Heavenly Emperor's Sutra!]
Grade: Unknown.
Introduction: The Heavenly Emperor's Sutra was jointly created by eleven unknown Heavenly Emperors. Those who cultivate this mystic art to perfection can transcend beyond the cosmos, not within dimensions, control life and death, karma, reverse yin and yang.
Seeing the two successful summons, Li Luo was so excited that his breathing became rapid. He was both surprised and delighted.
He didn't expect to summon Luo Yi this time!
Not only that, but with the Yan Yun Eighteen Riders as well!
Luo Yi was a famous general in the late Sui and early Tang dynasties.
The Yan Yun Eighteen he led was known as the ace force at that time, constantly active in the desert, and no one had ever seen their true appearance.
It was said that every time they appeared, they brought a massacre that devastated the barbarians.
What surprised Li Luo even more was that Luo Yi's cultivation was at the Returning Void Realm, and the Yan Yun Eighteen Riders under him all had cultivation at the Intermediate Stage of the Great Cultivation Realm.
Li Luo took a deep breath to calm his indescribable excitement.
Beiliang finally had a powerhouse at the Returning Void Realm!
Not only that, with the eighteen Yan Yun Riders, plus Beiliang's current Great Cultivation Realm experts, there were now as many as twenty-two!
Li Luo came back to his senses, but a question arose in his mind.
"System, with such high cultivation levels, could the talents of the Yan Yun Eighteen Riders compare to Li Ergou's and Gao Shun's?"
System: [The host is overthinking. Summoned powerhouses all belong to the growth type. Like the martial artists in this world, they can improve their realm through cultivation.]
[The cultivation levels of attached characters are fixed.]
[Also, the powerhouses summoned by the system all come from dimensional planes, and are completely different from the world the host knew in his previous life.]
[The cultivation levels of all these summoned characters are evaluated and assigned by the system. Therefore, the host cannot judge the strength of the summoned powerhouses based on his prior knowledge.]
"So no matter if they are historical or mythical figures of China, their cultivation levels are determined by the system before being summoned to this world."
"In the future if I summon a mythical figure, it's possible his cultivation surpasses Luo Yi's and Gao Shun's, or is lower than theirs?"
"A summoned civil official may have higher cultivation than a military general?"
Li Luo asked.
System: [Yes, no matter which plane's powerhouse, their cultivation is re-evaluated and assigned by the system before being summoned by the host.]
[But after being summoned by the host, their future cultivation improvements will depend on their own cultivation. As for who is stronger, it depends on themselves.]
Li Luo nodded. So although these summoned characters were familiar, they were completely different from what he knew in his previous life.
Li Luo regained his senses and looked towards the Heavenly Emperor's Sutra, continuing to ask:
"System Store plane, what is this plane?"
System: [The System Store plane is the system's own plane, containing treasures from various dimensional planes.]
[With luck, the host can summon treasures from the System Store plane's various dimensions through summoning.]
[This system doesn't just summon character powerhouses...]
"I see!"
Li Luo took out the Heavenly Emperor's Sutra, unable to contain his curiosity.
The grade of this Heavenly Emperor's Sutra was actually unknown.
In this world, there were cultivation mystic arts and martial skills for warriors to cultivate.
Like martial skills, mystic arts were also divided into Mortal, Profound, Spirit, Earth, Heaven, Saint, Emperor and Divine grades.
Looking at the introduction, Li Luo wondered if this mystic art surpassed the Divine grade?
It certainly wouldn't be any ordinary thing, since it came from the system.
Therefore, Li Luo decided to cultivate the Heavenly Emperor's Sutra.
After all, the mystic art passed down by his father was only of the Profound grade.
After taking out the Heavenly Emperor's Sutra, Li Luo was in no hurry to start cultivating. Still filled with excitement, he released the summoned Luo Yi.

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"

close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"

esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
