The Shen family's mansion, an ordinary cottage in the southwest corner of the backyard.

"Ahem" is far away, and you can hear the suppressed coughing sound of an old man in the house.

"Grandpa Mu, I'm back!" Shen Li shouted loudly.

When Shen Li was born, his mother died due to dystocia, and when Shen Li was eight years old, Shen Li's father, Shen Lie, in order to find the heavenly treasure that could help Shen Li open up the pill, went deep into the depths of Wuyun Mountain alone, and went for seven years, without any news, and never came back.

Since then, Shen Li has been dependent on Grandpa Mu, the old housekeeper brought by his mother when she got married.

"Xiao Li, I'm so happy to hear you, you must have passed this coming-of-age ceremony assessment, right?" At this time, hearing Shen Li's voice, the door of the room opened, and an old man with gray hair and a slightly rickety figure walked out slowly, with a strong sense of kindness on his face.

It was the housekeeper when Shen Li's mother married into the Shen family, and his hair was already gray at that time, and Shen Li always called him Grandpa Mu.

When the two of them had been dependent on each other for nearly seven years, there was no distinction between master and servant between each other, and Shen Li also regarded Grandpa Mu as his own grandfather.

"Yes, Grandpa Mu, I have passed the coming-of-age assessment, we will not be kicked out of the Shen family, and my father and mother's spiritual positions will not be cleared out of the Shen family ancestral hall. Shen Li said happily, his face full of excitement and pride.

"That's really good!Hmm, Xiaoli, you don't seem to be the same as before, and your body is much stronger than before! Could it be that you have any adventures in this coming-of-age ceremony assessment, and what natural treasures have you found?" Grandpa Mu's eyes flashed an imperceptible glimmer, swept over Shen Li's body, and the wrinkled skin on his face trembled slightly, and asked meaningfully.

"Grandpa Mu's eyes are really like torches, you can see it at a glance!" Shen Li said with a wink.

"This time, I accidentally picked up a fist-sized, red, flame-like fruit in a valley, fruity and fragrant, and I couldn't help but eat it, but after eating it, my stomach was like a fire running around, and then I fainted."

"When I woke up, I felt full of strength, and when a wounded green wolf passed by and tried to eat me, I killed it and turned it in as my rite of passage. Shen Li smiled.

In fact, for a moment, Shen Li wanted to tell Grandpa Mu about the mysterious broken star entering his heart, but thinking of the possible consequences later, coupled with such a strange thing, no one might believe it if he said it, so he hesitated a little, and it happened that Grandpa Mu said something about the adventure, so Shen Li panicked.

After all, it was already an unchangeable fact that Shen Li's physical strength had skyrocketed, and Shen Li didn't want the adventure of the shattered star to be known by others, so there had to be a convincing reason.

And what can make people's physical strength and even cultivation skyrocket, there is another possibility, that is, swallowing the treasures of heaven and earth!

The Xuanyuan Continent is rich in spiritual energy, not only human beings and fierce beasts can reproduce, but the rich spiritual energy has also given rise to many heavenly and earthly treasures that have been extremely long for many years, full of massive spiritual energy essence, whether it is a human warrior or a fierce beast, if you can devour and digest a heavenly and earthly treasure, you can quickly increase your physical strength, break through the barrier, and greatly improve your strength.

Generally speaking, most of the heavenly treasures will be guarded and occupied by powerful fierce beasts, and if you want to get them, you must have enough strength.

However, there are also occasional people who are lucky enough to pick up a treasure of heaven and earth without much effort, Shen Li said that he picked up a treasure of heaven and earth, and others will not be too suspicious except for envy.

"According to your description, eight ~ nine times out of ten that fruit is the red-blooded dragon fruit, it is a rare fruit that ranks in the top 200 on the Lingbao list! Xiaoli is really lucky for you! Maybe when you completely absorb the red-blooded dragon fruit, you will be able to open up the dantian!" Grandpa Mu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a smile, his face full of joy.

"It should be the red-blooded dragon fruit! It's hard to say whether you can open up the dantian, but now your strength has been greatly improved compared to before. Shen Li said with a smile.

"Great, Xiaoli, your strength has risen greatly now, and you have passed the coming-of-age assessment, I see who will dare to say that you are a waste in the future, and who will dare to give you white eyes in the future! Alas, if Miss has a spirit in the sky and knows your current situation, she will definitely be proud of you" Grandpa Mu said with a smile, looking at Shen Li's eyes with a little more kindness and doting.

Seeing Grandpa Mu's expression, Shen Li only thought that Grandpa Mu was happy to see that he was stronger than the original and no longer the original waste, and a stronger thought suddenly surged out of Shen Li's heart.

I want to become stronger! I must become stronger and stronger! I want to make Grandpa Mu proud of me!

The next day, Shen Li carried some medicinal herbs picked in the interval between hunting fierce beasts on the outskirts of Wuyun Mountain, walked out of Shen's mansion, and walked towards the shop where the medicinal herbs were purchased.

Along the way, many people who knew Shen Li quietly pointed at him and talked about it quietly.

"You know, it's this lucky kid who actually inadvertently devoured a red-blooded dragon fruit ranked 198th on the Spirit Treasure List!"

"No wonder his strength suddenly soared, and he was able to defeat Jin Laoqi and the two guards with the triple strength of the Quenching Body Realm with one move!"

"Yes, I heard that he also took back a second-order fierce beast green fang wolf head and handed it in as a coming-of-age ceremony assessment!"

"Shit!

People talk to each other, some are envious and some are jealous, but more people still don't look down on Shen Li.

"It seems that yesterday I spoke loudly to Grandpa Mu and deliberately passed on the news that I had eaten red-blooded dragon fruit to the little boy who swept the floor, and it really worked. Now I'm afraid everyone really thinks that I was lucky enough to eat the red-blooded dragon fruit, and my strength will skyrocket. Shen Li was secretly proud.

Although Shen Li defeated the two Jin family guards with the triple strength of the Quenching Body Realm with one move, many people present found that Shen Li had not been able to stimulate his blood qi, which meant that Shen Li had not opened up his dantian and gained the ability to cultivate because he had devoured the red blood dragon fruit!

And a person who has strengthened his physical strength by eating heavenly and earthly treasures by luck, but still can't open up the dantian and can't cultivate, at best, can only be improved to the strength equivalent to about four levels of the quenching realm, and he can't cultivate, and in the end he is still a waste, and he has no future in the martial arts.

Shen Li's hunting of the second-order fierce beast Qing Fangwolf, the bitter flattening of Jin Laoqi and the two Quenching Body Realm Triple Realm guards, will definitely be slowly forgotten by everyone as time goes by.

This is exactly what Shen Li wants to see, so that the secret of the broken star in Shen Li's body will not be exposed.

Shen Li came to a Shen family's shop, handed over the herbs he was carrying to the shopkeeper, exchanged a few spirit stones, and then turned around and walked towards the Shen family's mansion.

Just after walking a few steps, a group of people came in front of him, just in front of Shen Li.

Among a group of people, the most eye-catching is a young man in a gold silk robe and a noble body, who looks only seventeen or eighteen years old, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a handsome spirit, and a pair of eyes shining with a cold light.

It is the Jin family that ranks third in age among all the three generations of the Jin family, but it is the indisputable first day of the Jin family, and at the age of only eighteen, Jin Yiming, who has already reached the sixfold peak of the quenching realm!

"Third brother, it's this bastard who slapped me twice in front of so many people, you must be the master for me!" A young man with a swollen face, a dark face, and a face that couldn't see clearly, said with tears in his voice.

Shen Li raised his eyes and saw that it was Jin Laoqi, who he had just slapped twice not long ago.

"Boy, I didn't expect you to actually take shit luck, not being killed by the fierce beast, but picking up a red-blooded dragon fruit for nothing and eating it, and your strength has increased greatly! However, looking at your current appearance, the dantian still hasn't been able to open up, and it's still a waste with no future after all!" Jin Yiming glanced at Jin Laoqi, his eyes were full of disgust, and then he looked at Shen Li coldly.

For Jin Laoqi, a small character who is not enterprising and has no future in the martial arts, Jin Yiming originally disdained to win over, but there are some unsightly things, Jin Yiming can't do it himself, so he can only use Jin Laoqi.

"I'm a waste, what is Jin Laoqi who was slapped twice by me? Is it not even as good as waste?" Shen Li snorted coldly and said lightly.

"You...... You ......" Jin Laoqi was suddenly angry, but he couldn't say anything to refute.

"You kid has sharp teeth! Don't think that you're lucky with shit, you'll be fine if you pass the coming-of-age assessment, the toad wants to eat swan meat, it depends on whether you have that tooth!" Jin Yiming snorted coldly.

"If you can eat it or not, then you don't have to worry about it!" Shen Li said lightly and strode forward.

Jin Laoqi wanted to step forward to stop him, but when he saw the cold light in Shen Li's eyes, a chill suddenly surged in his heart, and he involuntarily dodged to the side.

Shen Li didn't look at Jin Laoqi, strode forward, and disappeared at the entrance of the alley after a while.

"Third brother, why did you just let this kid go? In less than a month, Shen Li's coming-of-age ceremony will be held for this kid, and if Xie Wanying doesn't marry him at that time, rumors will spread in Wushan City!" Jin Laoqi snorted while covering his cheeks.

"Hmph, do you want me to shoot at a waste on the street? What will others think of me? Don't worry, I won't let that bastard live until a month later! Li Hu, Li Leopard, you two will follow Lao Qi for the time being, and keep Shen Li staring at me for the time being, I don't believe that he can hide in Shen's house forever and not go out, as long as he leaves Wushan City, you can find a chance to reunite him with his parents......" Jin Yiming said coldly.

"Yes!" said respectfully the two men standing behind Jin Yiming, who were cold, full of evil spirits, and fierce like violent bears.

These two big men are named Li Hu and Li Leopard, and they are the top guards raised by the Jin family, both of them have the strength of the fivefold peak of the quenching body realm, plus they are a pair of twins, and they have the same mind, and under the joint efforts of the two, even if they are martial artists of the sixfold body quenching realm, they may not be their opponents.

"Great!Third brother, with the two of them making a move, I promise to let Shen Li die without a place to be buried!" Jin Laoqi's eyes were red, and he said with resentment.

Late at night, the Shen family's mansion.

At this time, it was the third day that Shen Li returned to the Shen family after completing the coming-of-age ceremony assessment.

After letting out a long breath, Shen Li opened his eyes, and a complicated expression appeared on his face.

Ever since the Shattered Star entered his body and copied the innate divine pattern of the second-order fierce beast Green Fangwolf into Shen Li's body, he had the ability to cultivate. However, in order to keep it secret, Shen Li could only choose to secretly cultivate in the middle of the night.

With the cultivation of the past few days, Shen Li found that this Shattered Star was not for nothing, almost every moment, Shattered Star was slowly absorbing the blood qi on Shen Li's body to repair the cracks on it.

Shen Li roughly counted, there were thousands of cracks on the broken star, large and small!

Shen Li devoured the flesh and blood of the dozens of catties of second-order fierce beast green fangs that he brought back, coupled with the nourishment of the aura obtained from the cultivation in the past few days, the cracks on the shattered star were actually only repaired in the shortest one.

If nothing else, Shattered Star would inevitably absorb Shen Li's blood qi until all the cracks on it were completely repaired.

Invisibly, this also forced Shen Li to speed up his cultivation and do everything possible to enhance his strength and strengthen his own blood qi, so that he would not be sucked dry by the broken star.

"Relying on cultivation alone every day can only barely ensure that the blood qi absorbed by the Shattered Star is absorbed, in this way, wouldn't I have to keep it in the Quenching Body Realm all the time, and I can't advance an inch? No, I have to find a way to speed up my cultivation. Shen Li thought secretly.

There are only two ways for ordinary martial artists to improve their strength, one is to cultivate every day step by step, and the other is to enhance their strength by absorbing the aura in the elixir.

The first method is the simplest, but it is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and too slow. The second method requires a premise that there must be enough money.

After all, even if it was the lowest-grade pill Yuan Qi Pill, it would cost at least a dozen taels of silver for one. Relying on the monthly money issued by the Shen family alone, it was not enough for Shen Li to buy two Yuan Qi Pills.

In fact, for Shen Li, who had devoured the flesh and blood of a hundred-catty second-order fierce beast, the Green Fangwolf, the spiritual power of the Yuan Qi Pill was too thin, and it was even slightly weaker than the spiritual power that Shen Li had cultivated himself.

After thinking about it, there is only one way, and that is to hunt the beast!

"Yes, I'll go hunting on the outskirts of Wuyun Mountain tomorrow!" Shen Li said to himself, his face full of determination and excitement.
