In the night sky, howling wind and torrential rain.

Raindrops tapped on every tile roof in the city, making a rhythmic clicking sound as they strolled down each street.

The water on the ground boiled, becoming a land of abundance, shrouded in mist.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Walking under the eaves, Li Yuan's lotus-patterned garment was soaked by the rain. The unrelenting wind still blew his black robe, causing it to rustle ominously.

It is now deep in the night. Every household's lights are out, and the entire city seems to have nothing but wind and rain left.

"Baicaoju, finally arrived."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

After walking for what seemed like an eternity, Li Yuan finally raised his head. His fiery eyes were visible beneath the hood of his cloak as he muttered to himself.

"Knock knock!"

The sound of the shop door closing loudly.

"Who is it What's up"

There was a sound of inquiries in the store.

“Shopkeeper, I want to buy a plant of Qianjincao.”

Li Yuan replied.

“A thousand pieces of gold for a sprig of Qianjincao, do you have the money”

"Yes, some."

Here it is!

As soon as his words fell, the sound of clashing swords echoed from the nearby alley.

“Oh no, this aura... it belongs to the Shen Tu family.”

Li Yuan instantly frowned, turned around abruptly, and rushed straight to the street corner.

So fast, the entire person was like a bolt of lightning, breaking through the rain curtain and dashing past.

"Hey! Li Yuan, can you run away..."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“Tomorrow is your Li family's annual cultivation test. I knew you would come to Bai Cao Ju in the dead of night to buy Qian Jin Cao in order to keep your position as the young clan leader!”

"Hand over your Huolong bone. Keeping it on you, a mere waste of potential, only tarnishes its brilliance."

A series of taunting voices echoed from the alley.

Immediately after, five or six men rushed out of the alley, brandishing long swords and grinning menacingly.

Suddenly, Li Yuan felt a sharp gust of wind behind him, sweeping across the entire street, creating a sonic boom, scattering the rain, and heading straight for his back.

"Sixth Layer of Qi Refinement."

Li Yuan's heart sank, his face changed drastically in an instant. He thought of various ways to dodge within a flash, and then with a swift stride, he dashed towards the back of a beast-shaped stone statue on the street side.

"Bang!"

A violent gust of wind struck the statue, causing it to explode in an instant. A surge of energy swept outwards, sending Li Yuan flying and crashing onto a rooftop at the edge of the street.

"Click! Click!"

Dozens of tiles flew up and then fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.

With one arm gripping the shattered eaves, Li Yuan exerted all his might and suddenly flung his body onto the rooftop.

“Shen Tu Meng! You dare to attack me in the city.”

Li Yuan turned his head, his gaze fixed on the several black figures on the street, and the person at their front. He roared angrily.

"Not bad! You actually guessed it was me."

The leader of the black-clad men, who was being stared down by Li Yuan's gaze, let out a sneer and then forcefully tore the hood from his head, slamming it to the ground.

Shentu Meng looked up at the sky, closed his eyes tightly, took a deep breath, and let the rain wash over him. Then he said coldly: "Tonight the wind is strong enough, the rain is heavy enough. I'll take your bone relic tonight, and no one will know it was me."

“Boss, that kid ran away.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Tu Meng suddenly opened his eyes. He saw Li Yuan, clad in a lotus-petal robe, appearing on the ceiling like an arrow shot from a bow. With unstoppable force, he pierced through the rain curtain and dashed eastward.

"Damn it! Hurry up and chase!"

Shen Tu Meng slapped the black-clothed figure beside him, then stomped his foot heavily on the ground, scattering the rainwater, and directly strode onto the roof to chase after him.

The others hurriedly followed suit.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

At this moment, Li Yuan's figure was like a phantom, flashing across the rooftop. He burst out with a speed far exceeding his cultivation level, actually pulling away from Shen Tu Meng, and the distance between them was growing larger and larger.

The wind died down and the rain stopped. Night passed, and day broke.

Thousands of mountains are green, and ten thousand miles have no clouds.

The townsfolk of Marlan City gradually emerged from their homes, and the streets began to bustle with activity.

"Phew..."

After several hours of cultivation, Li Yuan slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, but he still felt physically and mentally exhausted.

"How come I feel like I'm almost seventy years old"

>

>Life is fading.

>

The harder one cultivates, the weaker one's internal Qi becomes.

"Three years, every year it goes down. This year it even dropped three times worse."

“Looks like I'm going to be the laughingstock of the entire family again! Damn it!”

After a moment, Li Yuanjing sunk into deep contemplation, sensing the qi within her body. Her handsome face suddenly gained a few more points of anger, and a sharp scolding voice came from her mouth.

“Shen Tu Meng this bastard, doesn't know if the dragon bone on my body is gone”

One day...

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

“It’s alright…”

"Young Clan Leader, the Great Elder requests you to go to the Testing Grounds for the annual cultivation test!"

Just as I was about to rest for a while, an old woman's voice came from outside the room.

"Oh."

With great reluctance, he uttered a sound of agreement. Li Yuan then got out of bed, pulled open the room door, and walked out.

He gave a smile uglier than crying to an old woman in blue outside the room, and said, “Come on, Qingxin Butler.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Alas, if the Dragon Bone on Young Master's body hadn't vanished, he would probably be a powerful cultivator at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm, comparable to a Clan Leader. Perhaps he could even break through to the Yuanli Realm... But it's a pity..."

Gazing at the handsome face of the young man, the old woman in blue nodded gently. However, her cloudy eyes revealed a trace of regret, and she sighed inwardly.

Li Yuan, the son of the head of the Li family, one of the three major families in Malan City, can be said to have been born with a golden spoon.

Because when he was born, a unique Dragon Bone manifested within his body.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Unless something unexpected happens, he can be said to be a naturally born powerhouse in the Nirvana realm.

Anyone born with a dragon bone will surely enter the Nirvana realm before the age of fifty.

>

At the age of three, he began practicing Qi. At fifteen, he reached the eighth level of the Qi Refining Realm, making him the absolute first genius in Marlan City, revered by thousands.

Everyone believed that before he turned eighteen, he would definitely break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining Realm, successfully condense his Qi Pool, cultivate Yuanli, and enter the Yuanli Realm. He would become the only Yuanli Realm expert in the family for a hundred years.

Unfortunately, his path to heaven had just begun when he fell from the altar.

Three years ago, Li Yuansheng's reputation within the family reached its peak, with a high probability of becoming the only Nirvana Realm genius in the history of the Li family. He was suddenly struck by the most brutal blow since his birth.

After twelve years of cultivation, he raised his cultivation to the eighth level of the Qi Refining Realm, but it became the peak of his cultivation.

Over the next three years, his cultivation level continued to plummet.

At sixteen, he fell to the seventh level of the Qi Refining Realm.

At seventeen, he fell to the fifth level.

Now, just eighteen years old, she fell directly to the second level.

No matter how hard he tried, his cultivation level just wouldn't improve, it only kept falling.

From the altar he fell, and his genius, too, was gradually replaced by that of a waste.

Originally those reverent eyes, turned into disdain and mockery.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Just last month, the dragon bone that he was so proud of disappeared completely from his body.

The dragon bone is gone.

This means he is not much different from ordinary cultivators.

This is the translation of your text:

Please note that I have only translated the content within the tags and kept the HTML tags as they were. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

At this rate, we'll probably be worse off than even ordinary people.

Why would the once-in-a-million Dragon Bone disappear Even Li Yuan couldn't figure it out.

This blow made Li Yuan begin to become decadent.

He dreamed countless times of himself returning to his peak.

He is still the confident and immensely talented genius.

When he awoke from his dream, the frail energy within him was forcefully jolted awake by reality. Perhaps he would never have the chance to get up again.

Today is the annual family test cultivation day, and all the clansmen are coming with excitement.

And he would face a harsher consequence: if the results of this test did not show cultivation at least in the Qi Refining Realm fourth level, his position as the young clan leader would be stripped from him.

Last year's test results showed that he was still at the fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm.

This year has passed, and I've fallen three levels.

Li Yuan, who had always lived a secluded life, had his true cultivation level known to very few people.

Today, as it is about to be made public, I feel like I'm being led to the executioner's block.

Li Yuan followed the old woman in green clothes through layers of courtyards, reaching a test square on the clifftop of their family's back mountain. It was about fifty or sixty zhang in size.

Near the edge of the precipice, stood a ten-zhang-tall stone tablet. That was what was used to test one's cultivation.

It is said that it was built a hundred years ago by a powerful warrior from the family who successfully entered the Yuanli realm.

>

At this moment, thousands of figures thronged the square, their eyes brimming with excitement and fervor.

Different cultivation levels mean different resources gained over the next year.

“Li Ming, Qi Refinement Realm Fifth Layer!”

The test stone lit up with five glowing slots. A blue-clad old man below glanced at it, then shouted loudly.

"Li Yuan, everyone has been waiting for you for a long time!"

At this moment, the elderly man in Tsing Yi saw Li Yuan brought to the square by the old woman in blue. He called out in a cold voice.

>“Is this going to result in a death sentence”

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan's face immediately darkened, and he mumbled to himself.

Although he was extremely reluctant, a path was specially cleared for him by the crowd in the square, giving him a kind of welcoming procession feeling.

Indeed, before the age of sixteen, he was revered by all.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

But over the past two years, those admiring glances have turned into scorn.

Walking on this specially made path, he seemed to have a mountain on his back.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

The test stone at the end, like a mountain thousands of feet high, radiated an immense aura that made him feel breathless.

Unknowingly, beads of sweat rolled down Junlang's handsome face.

Climb the stone steps, and place your palm on top of the stele.

"Buzz!"

>

It seemed as if a deafening roar shook the air, like heaven itself was judging him. Why had his Dragon Bone vanished

"Li Yuan, Qi Refining Realm Second Layer!"

After an unknown amount of time, a cold voice suddenly rang in his ear.

Next, an uproar erupted around them, filled with derision.

Obviously, this result was not expected by anyone.

Eighteen years old, Qi Refining Stage Second Level.

Isn't this just like trash

He raised his head and glanced at the enormous stone tablet, its two glowing slots flickering. Even the corner of his mouth twitched with a hint of self-deprecation.

Withdrawing the infused energy, he took his palm away from the stone tablet and immediately turned around, dragging his weary body down the stone steps, through the crowd, and out of the testing square.

Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!

“Double My family’s genius, Li, has fallen further than the past two years!”

"Oh, so maybe becoming the only Nirvana realm genius in Li family history isn't a joke, huh"

"That's right, the whole Marlan City is watching our Li family become a laughingstock. This waste has completely disgraced our family."

"What is Malan City, it's the entire Yuanzhou, no, the entire Daxia."

"Such trash is still serving as the young chieftain."

"Doesn't he still have a chieftain father."

"Clan Head, this trash should have been expelled from the clan long ago."

"Don't worry, at the Qi Refining Realm Second Layer, you have already lost the qualifications to inherit the position of clan leader."

"Alas, that genius who once possessed the Dragon Bone"

"To have a dragon bone on one's body and only be at the second level of Qi Refining at eighteen years old, what a huge joke."

He holds this precious bone uselessly, so it should be taken from him and transplanted onto us.

“Give up, I heard that the dragon bone on him is gone.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"What, impossible."

"How is that impossible Otherwise, how could he only be at the second level of Qi Refining"

"That's right, maybe I did something to offend the heavens, causing Heaven's wrath."

The young man in blue robes who wanted to break out of the square was accepting jeers from behind like a surging tide, each one like a blade piercing his body, making his breathing come in short gasps.

“Li Yuan, in twelve days, the elders will strip you of your chief position, even your father being chief won't save you.”

Suddenly, a bone-chilling voice came from the test stone tablet, piercing Li Yuan's soul. It made him stop his forward steps involuntarily.

“Li Minglin, at the sixth level of Qi Refining!”

Immediately following, under the testing stone tablet, a voice filled with excitement and exhilaration emanated from the elderly man in green robes.r.""Alas, that genius who once possessed the Dragon Bone""To have a dragon bone on one's body and only be at the second level of Qi Refining at eighteen years old, what a huge joke."He holds this prec...
