Mortal, marry the old demon's sister and build an immortal family

Chapter 160 Returning to Tianxing City, Yanli enters the middle stage of foundation building, Yuanyao is envious!

"Has a whole month passed so quickly?" Hearing the sound outside the cave, Ye Xiaotian's expression was slightly stunned. From his personal feeling, it seemed like only a few hours had passed, but in reality, a whole month had passed.

It was for this reason that he understood why practitioners often had to cut off worldly affairs and focus on the Tao. Ye Xiaotian's practice was just normal, and in the blink of an eye, it had been a month.

If it is a moderately severe detention, three to five years, or seven to eight years is completely normal.

Maybe after you have accomplished something great, all your worldly friends and relatives have passed away, leaving you alone sitting in front of the tombstone, silent and speechless.

As your cultivation becomes more and more advanced, after you reach the Nascent Soul stage, when you come out of seclusion, the world has changed dramatically, and it is very likely that a hundred years have passed just like that.

If one still maintains contact with the secular world, wouldn't it be a huge torture for the practitioner himself?

It may even trigger inner demons and affect the firmness of one's determination to practice Taoism. In more serious cases, it is possible that one's cultivation will be overturned in an instant.

Of course, this kind of situation is likely to happen mostly when one is being plotted against by others. The more powerful the practitioner is, the more steadfast his mind will naturally be, and he will not be easily moved by external things.

With a light sigh, Ye Xiaotian said calmly outside the cave: "Come in."

As the sound fell, a gap appeared in the restriction outside the cave.

Yanli walked in without any hesitation.

"Give me your hand." Looking at the petite and lovely Yanli in front of him, Ye Xiaotian did not hesitate at all. His feelings towards this woman naturally could not be as sincere as those towards his little sister. After all, the relationship between them was more of a mutually beneficial one.

Yanli longed for the sense of security and protection that Ye Xiaotian could bring her, as well as the resources needed for her subsequent practice. She no longer had to go to the open sea to hunt monsters and kill beasts as before, where she could die on the spot if she was not careful.

And what about Ye Xiaotian? What he was given was nothing more than a beautiful and innocent body. After practicing the "Dragon and Phoenix Nirvana Technique", the extremely pure Yuan Yin power could allow him to further improve his cultivation and even ignore some bottlenecks.

It is for this reason that, under the mutual use, whether there is any emotion or not, it cannot be said that there is no emotion at all, but it is better than nothing.

There is an extremely sincere relationship between Ye Xiaotian and his younger sister. They got married when they were still mortals, and have supported each other all the way from their humble beginnings to where they are today. Apart from the biggest secret of the system, there is nothing that his younger sister doesn't know about Ye Xiaotian.

If his younger sister is in danger, Ye Xiaotian will go to rescue her even at the risk of his life. As for other people, those concubines, he will hesitate. If their lives are really in danger, he will need to think twice.

This is the biggest difference between the two.

This cannot be blamed on Ye Xiaotian being cruel. It can only be said that his current strength is still too weak. In this world of immortal cultivation where the strong prey on the weak and conspiracy is rife, he cannot truly have the right to speak.

If Ye Xiaotian had the Nascent Soul cultivation level at this moment, everything would be different.

Since entering the cave, Yanli has been observing Ye Xiaotian's expression. Recently, he has looked calm, and she couldn't help but groan in her heart.

If a concubine like her wants to survive, she must learn to observe people's words and expressions, but Ye Xiaotian always has a calm face, making it impossible to guess what he is thinking. What kind of observation is this?

Yanli could only step forward obediently and stretch out her pink, rosy, and white jade-like little hand.

Ye Xiaotian grasped it in one hand, and a stream of spiritual power rushed into Yanli's body. After feeling the pure spiritual energy in her dantian and the phoenix shadow, his expression finally turned slightly to joy.

"Good! Good! It seems that you have not slacked off in your cultivation during this month. This is very good. You must know that cultivation is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. Time is running out and time is not waiting for me. I see that you have reached the peak of the initial stage of foundation building and are only one step away from the middle stage."

Ye Xiaotian raised his eyes and looked at the cute Yanli in front of him. Finally, a few smiles appeared on his face: "Go back and keep working hard. Now that you have practiced the Dragon and Phoenix Nirvana Technique, I think you have a better understanding of this technique. I will definitely fulfill my original promise."

"Before your cultivation reaches the late stage of foundation building, I will not do anything to you. Once your cultivation reaches the late stage of foundation building, at that time, you and I can practice dual cultivation together. Not only will my cultivation level be further improved, but I will also enter the middle stage of Jindan sooner."

"It will also bring you many benefits. You will be able to reach the peak of foundation building in one step and enter the realm of false elixir. From now on, you can start to form elixir."

"Thanks to the domineering nature of this technique, you should know that what I said is true. Compared to squeezing you dry in a short period of time, a long-term approach will maximize the benefits. Therefore, you don't need to worry too much about this aspect, and you don't need to be frightened all day long."

Ye Xiaotian's words really made Yanli feel a lot more at ease.

At the same time, after practicing the Dragon and Phoenix Nirvana Technique, she also knew that what Ye Xiaotian said was true.

The domineering and uniqueness of this technique is in no way inferior to the unique techniques of those Yuanying monsters.

This Dragon and Phoenix Nirvana Technique can even be called the Chaos Star Sea, no! It is even the first dual cultivation technique in the world of immortal cultivation.

At the same time, Yanli was extremely glad that she had made this decisive decision at the beginning. She became Ye Xiaotian's concubine and obtained this extremely powerful martial art. Her cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds. She would soon catch up with her good sister Yuan Yao and enter the middle stage of foundation building.

At the same time, she also wondered secretly, if she was like Yuan Yao, and still lived the same difficult life of hunting monsters as usual, how long would it take her to enter the middle stage of foundation building?
You know, there is a world of difference between practicing with the assistance of Qingyuan Pills and practicing without them.

In the following days, the comfortable lives of several people were disrupted.

After the formation of Kuixing Island was broken, the inner and outer star seas became completely chaotic. Even an unknown small island was attacked by a fifth-level monster.

Ye Xiaotian had originally focused all his attention on the Soul Refining Technique, attempting to make some progress, but was disturbed by this monster. In a rage, he directly used the Soul Refining Technique's secret attack method on the soul, shattering the beast's soul and cutting off its possibility of reincarnation.

Originally Ye Xiaotian thought this was just an accident, but in the following days, monsters came to attack from time to time. The weaker monsters were easy to deal with, and they were all dealt with with the cooperation of Yuan Yao and Yan Li. One had rich experience in fighting, and the other had top-notch magic weapons, so it was easy for them to deal with the monsters.

But as time went on, even sixth-level monsters came to cause trouble. Ye Xiaotian could only sigh helplessly in his heart, thinking that he could not stay in this place any longer. Although he wanted to retreat for a while, after all, his soul refining technique had really reached a critical moment, and he only needed the finishing touch!
However, the increasingly frequent attacks by monsters did force Ye Xiaotian to make a choice at this critical moment. In the end, he could only sigh helplessly, end his retreat, and prepare to set off for Tianxing City.

"Yanli, it's only been a few months and you've already reached the middle stage of foundation building?" Yuan Yao looked at her good sister in shock. Even with the help of elixirs, this speed was a bit too fast.

If it was just a normal entry into the middle stage of foundation building, she could still understand it, but now Yuan Yao, even if Yanli did not use her top-notch magic tools, was no match for her. This was not because Yanli's fighting experience had improved qualitatively in a short period of time, but purely because of the crushing of realm and secret techniques. Some unique secret techniques and spells caught Yuan Yao off guard. If it was a real fight, she would have been killed and injured countless times.

When the two were fighting, Yanli was far ahead in terms of control over spiritual power and its purity.

Yuan Yao felt a little psychologically unbalanced because of this treasure.

I practiced so hard and cultivated so diligently, but my best sister caught up with me all of a sudden?
What are my efforts then?
"Hehe! In addition to giving me elixirs, cultivation resources and these top-notch magical instruments, Senior Ye also rewarded me with a top-notch technique. I can't tell you the name of the technique, but I'm still 30% to 50% confident that I can enter the Jindan stage in the future." Yanli said this, as if she had thought of something, and a blush suddenly appeared on her face.

Yuan Yao did not notice this abnormality, but widened her eyes in shock: "What did you say? A 30% to 50% chance of entering the Jindan stage? Senior Ye, he is not lying to you, is he? How can the success rate be so high?"

If her good sister had caught up with her before, it could be explained as the difference in resources. But at this moment, Yuan Yao's mood completely exploded.

No?

I'm still worrying about how to enter the late stage of foundation building, but you're already preparing to form the elixir.

And you still say with confidence that the probability is 30% to 50%?

Even though the success rate of 30% to 50% seems very low, except for those from aristocratic families and direct descendants of sects, which cultivator who advances to the Jindan stage does not have the determination to risk his life?

The vast majority of monks, even if they know that their success rate of advancing to the final stage is less than one in ten, will still try their best.

A success rate of 30% to 50% can no longer be described as high, it is extremely high.

To some casual cultivators, such a success rate is a sure thing.

This is also the reason why Yuan Yao had a mental breakdown.

She is the casual cultivator!

"Okay! Okay! I'll give you all the gains I've gotten in the past few days. I don't want anything. Stop pouting and looking at me eagerly. It's hard for me too, okay? It's hard to be someone's concubine. You have to understand me!" Seeing her good sister looking aggrieved, Yanli could only wave her hands repeatedly. First, she gave her some benefits, and then pretended to look aggrieved.

"Oh!" Yuan Yao sighed helplessly, thinking, if I had not been so reserved at that time, and went to see Senior Ye with my good sisters, would I have been able to become his concubine, and would I have been able to practice top-notch martial arts and not have to worry about resources?
Maybe at this time, they have already entered the late stage of foundation building and started to sprint to the realm of false elixir, preparing for the future elixir formation.

Such scenes flashed in Yuan Yao's mind from time to time, making her unable to forget them. A huge feeling of sourness spread, and she was filled with endless regret.

But when she thought of the huge price she had paid, Yuan Yao felt relieved and finally adjusted her mindset.

There is gain and loss. Since she has chosen freedom, she must naturally bear the price of freedom.

Just as the two good sisters were talking, Ye Xiaotian rushed into the air and waved his hand to take away several formations. At the same time, a huge flying boat stood horizontally in the air, emitting a faint golden light.

At the same time, a storage bag flew to Yanli's side, accompanied by Ye Xiaotian's faint voice.

"Put the snacks in this flying boat and head to Tianxing City immediately. Don't stop along the way. Don't bother me unless you encounter trouble that you can't solve."

After saying this, Ye Xiaotian rushed into the flying boat and began his retreat practice again.

Yanli reached out to take the storage bag, and entered the flying boat with her good sister Yuan Yao. After filling it with spirit stones, they flew away at a very fast speed.

"Hey! What went wrong? I'm just one step away from success!" Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Ye Xiaotian pondered over the problem, but could not figure it out. The difficulty of this soul-refining technique was beyond his imagination. After several months of hard work, he gained nothing.

This made him feel more and more irritated, and the effect of Bing Xin Jue began to become less and less.

At this moment, the negative effects of practicing the soul-refining technique began to emerge. Ye Xiaotian could clearly feel that his personality was beginning to be affected, becoming more bloodthirsty and brutal.

If they were to fight again now, he would subconsciously use all his killing moves and leave no chance of survival for his opponent. It seems that only by destroying the opponent's soul and cutting off his chance of reincarnation would he be able to feel completely at ease.

But Ye Xiaotian's nature is not like this.

Although he had been cautious in the past, he had never been so cruel.

"No! I must not be affected by the spirit-refining technique. Otherwise, I will only sink deeper and deeper into insanity, and even go insane, completely lose my self-awareness, and become a killing machine. It is not impossible for me to madly destroy everything in the world."

Although Ye Xiaotian had anticipated this result and thought of ways to solve it, after thinking it over, he finally found that there was no solution.

The only solution is to break through.

When one practices to the second level of the Soul Refining Technique, all negative effects will naturally disappear, or at least they will not come back to you in the short term.

But the difficulty of breaking through this realm is like suppressing the violent murderous intent in one's heart, which is an unsolvable problem.

“Could it be that this time, I have to rely on the system again to let Yanli practice faster? But if I do this, my Dao heart will not be stable enough, and I will be in big trouble when I advance to the Nascent Soul stage in the future.”

Maybe it was because my cultivation progressed too quickly, or maybe it was because my previous days were too easy and comfortable.

At this moment, Ye Xiaotian completely understood how difficult it was to cultivate immortality, which was as difficult as ascending to heaven.
