I can push my cultivation progress to the end

As the blood gushed out rapidly, Zhou Xingye's struggles weakened, and the despair and pain in his eyes grew stronger.

Finally, under the astonished, curious, fearful, and gleeful gazes of the onlookers outside the store, he stared wide-eyed and contorted in death.

The Naihe Token that Li Hai took out, upon entering the iron basin and coming into contact with Zhou Xingye's blood, leaped and frolicked like a fish, gulping down the entire basin of blood, and then began to flicker with black and red light.

Li Hai was quick-handed, reaching out his left palm to scoop the Naihe Token out of the iron basin in an instant, and infused it with his true energy.

Buzz—

Instantly, a familiar, cold voice echoed in his mind:

“The Guiyou Cave Heaven has been successfully activated. Do you wish to enter?”

Li Hai immediately responded in his mind: “No.”

The cold voice replied instantly: “Instruction received.”

Immediately after, the voice sounded again: “After the Guiyou Cave Heaven has been successfully activated, the function of Absorption and the function of Etherealization have been opened. Do you wish to enable them?”

“Etherealization?”

Li Hai was somewhat puzzled, “I can roughly understand the Absorption function, which is to absorb external objects and store them in the Cave Heaven, but what does this Etherealization mean?”

In his confusion, he immediately chose to enable the Etherealization function of the Guiyou Cave Heaven.

Whoosh—

In the blink of an eye, the Naihe Token in Li Hai's hand cracked and shattered into dust, leaving only a wisp of black and red light that seeped into his palm.

“Eh?!”

Li Hai raised his hand to look, and found that on the skin of his left palm, two ancient seal characters shimmering with blood light—Naihe—had appeared out of thin air.

At the same time, lines of text information flashed in his mind.

After reading all the information in a single thought, Li Hai immediately understood what the so-called Etherealization function meant.

According to its meaning, the essence of the Guiyou Cave Heaven was not in this Naihe Token, but outside the mortal world, the token was just a small gateway.

And when Li Hai activated the Cave Heaven and became its master, this gateway would detach from the Naihe Token and transfer to his body.

As for the two characters Naihe on the palm of his left hand, they were merely an external manifestation of the Cave Heaven gateway.

If Li Hai wanted to change its position, whether to the space between his eyebrows, the soles of his feet, or even his buttocks, it would be a trivial matter that could be changed at will with a single thought.

Apart from these, Li Hai's body would no longer be able to enter the Cave Heaven, and could only exist outside the Cave Heaven.

However, this did not mean that he would no longer be able to manipulate the various things inside the Cave Heaven.

Li Hai could use the power of the Cave Heaven gateway to manifest an invisible perspective and invisible limbs inside the Cave Heaven, freely observing and touching everything inside the Cave Heaven.

“Hahaha.”

He was in a great mood, laughing loudly, “In short, isn't this just a storage ring? It's just that the internal space is much larger and has extremely high growth potential.”

Li Hai roughly calculated that the partial hall of the Guiyou Cave Heaven, which was rectangular as a whole, was about a hundred zhang long, sixty zhang wide, and a little over one zhang, less than two zhang high.

This area and space were very large, enough to hold many things.

Immediately, Li Hai spread out his left palm, aimed it at the pile of powder left after the Naihe Token shattered at his feet, and activated the Absorption function.

Buzz—

In the blink of an eye, the pile of powder disappeared without a trace and appeared on the ground of the partial hall inside the Guiyou Cave Heaven.

Suddenly, a hesitant voice reached Li Hai's ears.

He looked towards the source of the voice and found an old woman with a weathered face and tattered clothes suddenly walking out from the crowd of onlookers outside the store.

As soon as the old woman walked up to Li Hai, she knelt down with a plop and pleaded:

“Benefactor, could you please give Zhou Xingye's head to this old woman?”

“Oh?” Li Hai reached out to help the old woman up, “Do you have a grudge against him?”

The old woman only nodded to herself after standing up, unwilling to say more, only murmuring: “I, I want to use Zhou Xingye's head… to pay tribute to my daughter, my little grandson, and my husband.”

“I understand.” Li Hai nodded, turned around, used the pig-slaughtering knife to cut off Zhou Xingye's head, and handed it to the old woman by the hair.

The old woman didn't care about the blood on her hands at all, only gnashing her teeth, holding the head, scratching and clawing at it, wishing she could crush it in her arms.

“Thank you, thank you, benefactor!” After venting her hatred, the old woman knelt down again and kowtowed to Li Hai, then hurried away with Zhou Xingye's head in her arms.

After the old woman took the lead, several more people walked out of the crowd of onlookers, kneeling in front of Li Hai:

“Benefactor, I want Zhou Xingye's left arm.”

“Benefactor, I want a pair of Zhou Xingye's hands.”

“Benefactor, I want Zhou Xingye's black heart.”

…

These people were different, some men and some women, but the only thing they had in common was that their faces were full of hatred and grief.

Li Hai understood in his heart and didn't ask much, nodding and turning around to start working with the knife.

While busy, he couldn't help but recall the scene of slaughtering pigs and distributing meat in the countryside in his previous life.

Just like now, there was also a group of people eagerly surrounding him.

It was just that after distributing the meat back then, the villagers gave money.

After distributing the meat this time, the people offered gratitude.

The two seemed different, but in reality, they were somewhat the same.

The same point was that Li Hai felt very happy.

And what he sought in this life was happiness.

…

“Sir, can you give me some more clean blood? The blood on the ground is too dirty. I'll take it away, dip steamed buns in it, and feed it to my grandson. The doctor said that the blood of this kind of evil person is very effective in treating illnesses!”

“It's all distributed, there's no more.”

Faced with the old woman's ignorant request, and the eager people around him, Li Hai was also very helpless.

But no matter how fat Zhou Xingye was, even if he was fat as a ball, he couldn't withstand so many people dividing him up.

It could only be said that his three-hundred-jin body couldn't bear the evil he had done.

After dealing with these people, Li Hai walked towards the Zhou family mansion again.

“Given you so much preparation time…”

He looked at the three rows of musketeers outside the Zhou family mansion gate, numbering as many as a hundred, and couldn't help but sneer coldly, “In the end, you only put on this kind of small formation, without even a single expert. It's really embarrassing.”

Suddenly, an elaborately dressed old man appeared in the innermost row of musketeers. He looked at Li Hai dozens of zhang away and shouted remotely:

“I am Zhou Yushu, and I am the Zhou family head and the Zhoujiabao's lord. May I ask, young hero, what grievances do you have with my Zhou family?”

Li Hai said: “No grievances, no hatred.”

While speaking, he also glanced at Zhou Yushu's personal interface from afar.

Unexpectedly, this old man did not know any martial arts at all, and was a purely ordinary person.

“Hahahaha~”

Zhou Yushu laughed coldly, “Since there is no hatred or resentment with my Zhou family, why did young hero have to torture Xingye so cruelly?!”

Li Hai chuckled: “Is he your grandson?”

“No.” Zhou Yushu said, “He is the grandson of my third younger brother, Zhou Yugen, but I treat him as my own, as my own grandson.”

“Good, very good.”

Li Hai smiled happily, “So Zhou Yugen, Zhou Hu, and Zhou Xingye are actually a family of grandfather, father, and grandson. Wonderful.”

After saying that, Li Hai put away his smile and strode towards the Zhou family mansion.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Yushu immediately shouted anxiously: “Fire! Fire quickly!”

At his command, the entire musketeer team immediately opened fire.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Accompanied by bursts of smoke, a rain of bullets instantly bombarded Li Hai, who was walking slowly.
