Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

Chapter 294: Some Success in Cultivating on Borrowed Land

He originally thought that this marriage alliance was just a matter of saving face and that it wouldn't be difficult to resolve; he just needed to keep the scale small to get by.

After all, the person is dead; it's impossible for her to remain a widow for the rest of her life as if she were someone else.

However, after listening to Yun Shu's words today...

It's easier to handle disputes involving interests; if the Yun family is confident, they can even turn the tables on the Yun family.

The person from the Gao family was just the eldest son of a collateral branch, insignificant, while the Yun family was the sister-in-law of the head of the Fire Sect's eldest branch, so there was a difference in status.

To steer the narrative in the direction of a conspiracy, one could say that the Gao family deliberately sacrificed a pawn to gain more benefits.

This kind of mess is too easy to cover up; Gu Qing is very experienced.

Moreover, without revealing Yun Yuyan's special physique, even the Yun clan members themselves are easily fooled, except for the Star-Picking Ancestor.

Gu Qing was certain that this person was a complete adversary.

He was also the only sixth-rank ancestor of the Yun clan.

He doesn't really want to see this person; it could easily cause unnecessary trouble.

ponder for a moment.

"Alright, I understand. You can go back now."

"I have something to say to your aunt."

Yun Shu clenched her fist, never feeling it so hard before, but considering the fate of the Big Dipper stars, she relaxed her grip.

"Humph."

After the brother and sister left, Gu Qing squeezed into a chair with Yun Yuyan and received another eye roll.

"Have you two made a decision?"

"we have a deal."

Silence~

"Are you really going to marry me?"

Gu Qing nodded.

"I have my own selfish reasons for marrying you. Let me tell you in advance, so you don't think I'm lying or taking advantage of you."

Yun Yuyan rested her head on Gu Qing's chin and tickled his Adam's apple, her face turning red with embarrassment upon hearing this.

"If I'd known you were a womanizer, how many girls have you cheated on?"

"You're wronging me. Before you, I was a pure yang being, and I never even thought about getting married. You can feel it, right? The first night."

Yun Yuyan's delicate body trembled.

Cultivators are different from ordinary people; they can sense whether someone is pure Yang or primordial Yin.

Gu Qing used the techniques he comprehended from the Yan Jun Secret Manual to accelerate the progress of the Zhu Rong Body, and Yun Yuyan would also benefit greatly.

"By the way, did you choose your own cultivation technique or was it bestowed upon you by your clan?"

Although the relationship has progressed rapidly, it is now much closer than it was at the beginning, which is enough to warrant asking this question.

"It was bestowed upon us by the clan back then, so what?"

"really."

Gu Qing sighed, becoming even more certain that the Star-Picking Ancestor harbored ill intentions.

Yun Yuyan is exceptionally talented and is the daughter of Zhu Rong, so theoretically she should be much stronger than Yun Shu. However, they are currently evenly matched, and the problem lies in their cultivation techniques.

"If you trust me, then give me the basic cultivation techniques you used when you were at the eighth rank, and I will give you a path to the heavens."

In the Cangwu cultivation world, any cultivator with the ambition to ascend to immortality will cultivate an eighth-grade technique, and only after reaching the seventh grade will they forge their own path.

Of course, there are also exceptionally talented individuals who can master multiple methods from other people and ultimately achieve the same goal, but they are few in number and very few succeed.

The true secrets of ascension are known only to the most powerful and dominant forces.

The eight clans of Zhurong were actually entitled to know this, but the Yun clan declined so much that it's reasonable that they lost this information.

It is common knowledge among cultivators that it is easier to succeed by practicing the techniques of the strong.

After all, ascendants are rare, and only the Twelve Immortal Sects can produce them consistently. Below them, it takes thousands or even tens of thousands of years for one to emerge.

The path you choose is important.

Yun Yuyan hesitated for a moment, and although she didn't know what Gu Qing meant, she still agreed.

"According to your."

"Hahahaha, Lady Yun, would you be willing to help me cultivate?" "What a wicked person!"

Three days later, the sun was high in the sky.

Gu Qing arrived at the Star Tower around noon, which was quite late.

The three Beidou satellites didn't feel slighted; instead, they came over to greet Gu Qing.

“I will take you to the place where we usually practice. For the next twenty years, you will be able to travel freely without any obstacles.”

Gu Qing was slightly surprised, and her impression of them improved even more. They were willing to lose face even when they lost a fight; that was true class.

You might call them foolish, but at this point they're quite shrewd, and they've found a way to broaden their horizons.

"No rush, let's get to know each other again."

"Gu Qing."

Beidou-3 explained.

“Yun Heng”.

“Yunyang”.

“Yun Guang”.

The three brothers, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang, do not have generational names. Their names are composed of the three stars of the Big Dipper, which is the handle of the Big Dipper, and that is quite fitting.

They don't talk much, but they say things that are meaningful.

Then he began to introduce the Star Tower to Gu Qing.

Yun Heng said with a hint of arrogance, "The Star Tower is a place where the star power of the Big Dipper Islands gathers. It has seventy-two floors and is mainly for us juniors who cultivate the Star Dao in the lower three ranks."

“Our three brothers’ cultivation room is on the top floor, where we enjoy the best cultivation environment. You will have a share of it in the future.”

"Senior Gu Qing, are you borrowing this land to refine treasures or for cultivation?"

"Cultivating a supernatural power technique, what? Is there a difference?"

Yun Guang continued, "Yes, the lower layer of star power is more suitable for refining treasures, while the upper layer of star power is constantly flowing, making it more suitable for cultivation and performing magic."

"Occasionally, I could draw in a few strands of [Celestial Star Qi], but they were all taken by the Xuan Taizu."

Gu Qing was surprised that he could draw upon the Qi of the Heavenly Gang.

The Star Tower's effects are absolutely top-notch. They lost the Holy Ancestor's Fire Pool, but gained this Star Tower, ensuring the clan's continuous fortune and providing them with a great asset for turning their lives around.

The internal strife is so fierce that unless one side is completely defeated, it is difficult to become a first-class immortal clan.

The three brothers led Gu Qing to the top floor, fulfilled their promise, gave him a token to open the door, and then took their leave.

The cultivation room on the top floor of the Star Tower is equipped with multiple magic arrays. The meditation area is a star platform, and the fixed [Seven Star Qi-Guiding Array] is probably prepared for the three brothers.

Gu Qing didn't stand on ceremony and plopped down on it.

Sensing the rapidly flowing stellar energy around him, he began to circulate the "Zhou Tian Xing Chen Qi".

The Taotie Dao pattern appeared between his brows, frantically refining the celestial energy of the heavens, turning it into resources to nourish Gu Qing's essence, energy, and spirit, and his slowly progressing realm began to climb again.

The speed is visibly fast.

Gradually, Gu Qing's body became transparent, his meridians shone like a galaxy, and his acupoints sparkled like stars.

As the physical body's essence and energy become increasingly abundant, they nourish the spirit and soul, resulting in a surge of inspiration, a clear mind, and the growth of the primordial spirit.

The illusory, irregular pill-shaped structure formed by the shattering of the nine-layered crystal sea floated on the chest and abdomen of the primordial spirit embryo, becoming much rounder as it received nourishment from the star power.

It shimmered with starlight, and a barrier of airflow gradually took shape.

Gu Qing's first seclusion lasted for more than three months.

"Is this the celestial energy of the heavens...?"

With a thought, Gu Qing was enveloped by a layer of stellar true energy like a stream of air. This was a supernatural power extended from the auxiliary cultivation technique, primarily for defense, capable of blocking all offensive techniques, including spells.

"The supernatural power is just beginning to take shape, but I don't know how strong it is. I'll try it again when I have the chance."

His main goal is to improve his own energy and spirit, lay a perfect foundation, and then prepare for a breakthrough.
