Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 107 Qi Refining Perfection

Chapter 107 Qi Refining Perfection (10,000-word update, please subscribe)

After Zhu Yingying left with the Holy Maiden, Shen Xuan felt a sense of relief and relaxation.

Finally, there's no need to worry about the Five Poisons Sect investigating Elder Wei's demise.

There's no need to feel guilty towards Zhu Qingsheng.

There's no need to worry about Zhu Yingying's future.

Since awakening the mysterious jade talisman, Shen Xuan has been determined to seek immortality in the cultivation world.

His heart was as firm as iron.

Everyone is just a fleeting passerby.

Including his wife, Ding Yuyao.

He will not remarry in the future.

Dual cultivation is possible.

Marriage is out of the question!
If you are successful, you will help the world, and if you are poor, you will be alone.

Given Shen Xuan's cultivation level, it's already quite remarkable that he can remain virtuous and self-disciplined.

This is a cultivation world where strength reigns supreme, and the law of the jungle prevails—the strong prey on the weak!

Just now, in the reception room.

The saintess asked Shen Xuan if he was willing to marry Zhu Yingying.

If she wanted, she would grant them their wish.

Without a moment's hesitation, Shen Xuan immediately and decisively refused.

Zhu Yingying was born with a seductive body and cultivated the Heavenly Desire Seductive Technique of the Hehuan Sect.

Not suitable as a long-term Daoist partner.

As for the entanglement between him and Zhu Yingying.

The arising and ceasing of conditions are all predestined.

Shen Xuan did right by Zhu Yingying.

The saintess, who understood the cause and effect of the matter, was well aware of this.

Seeing that Shen Xuan had no intention of making things difficult for him, the Holy Woman did not make things difficult for him.

He was only required to swear an oath to Heaven that he would not reveal what had happened between him and Zhu Yingying.

Shen Xuan felt no guilt about this.

It's just a vow made to Heaven; this isn't the first time.

He didn't believe that the Heavenly Oath of this world could truly bind him, a transmigrator.

Of course, under normal circumstances, Shen Xuan tries his best to abide by the oath of Heaven.

The saintess greatly admired Shen Xuan.

But it's not to the point where he's indispensable.

This is Yunyuan Immortal City of the Biyue Sect, where a Core Formation True Person resides.

No matter how powerful the Holy Maiden is, she cannot make a move here.

Moreover, Shen Xuan was not unprepared if he were to actually take action.

It's hard to say whether they'll win or lose.

There is absolutely no problem with escaping safely.

When asked about future plans.

Shen Xuan admitted.

He was planning the foundation.

After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, he will likely join the Qingyun Sect.

He had two close friends from his school days at the Qingyun Sect, both of whom were Foundation Establishment Elders.

After learning of Shen Xuan's plans.

The saintess smiled slightly.

He was presented with a jade plaque from the Hehuan Sect, a symbol of honor for distinguished guests.

Unlike the jade plaques found in the market streets of Qinglong Bay.

This is a sect jade token.

Discounts are available for all properties owned by the Hehuan Sect.

If you successfully establish your foundation, you can visit Zhu Yingying at the Hehuan Sect if you have the time.

Shen Xuan readily agreed.

And so, Shen Xuan and Zhu Yingying parted ways amicably, each going their own way.

After seeing Zhu Yingying and her daughter off.

Shen Xuan returned home.

Only then did Ding Yuyao dare to sneak out.

She received a hint from Shen Xuan and hid in her own bedroom, not daring to show herself.

"Husband, is Zhu Yingying really gone?"

"Her mother took her away."

"But, if my husband wishes to..."

Ding Yuyao said with some worry, "I can't do that!"

"How will you know if you don't try?"

Shen Xuan smiled, took her hand, and walked into the bedroom.

"Husband, be gentle!"

Ding Yuyao's ears turned red, and she said softly.

"Don't worry! Let me see if Yao Yao's riding skills have improved!"

The soft bed in the bedroom made a long-lost creaking and rocking sound.

Looking at Ding Yuyao, who was as docile as an Aries.

Shen Xuan inexplicably missed Zhu Yingying, who was as fiery as a wildcat.

"after……"

"Do we have a future together?"

Shen Xuan was completely bewildered.

...One year later.

In the practice room.

A dazzling light shone forth, accompanied by the faint sound of waves, its momentum overwhelming, like a raging sea.

Shen Xuan, who was sitting cross-legged in the center, slowly opened his eyes, a surge of joy in his heart.

"At eighty-four years old, Qi cultivation has reached its peak!"

With each breath, the magical power within the body rose and fell gently in a regular pattern, and the spiritual power contained in the five internal organs formed a vast ocean.

Shen Xuan's body was like a small world, secretly in harmony with the evolution of the universe, with flowing magical power, natural spiritual charm, and endless vitality.

【Shouyuan: 84/143】

It took Shen Xuan a full twenty-four years to go from the third level of Qi Refining to the peak of Qi Refining.

His lifespan increased by only one year.

"It's not easy!"

He slowly stood up.

"To attain immortality through the path of immortality is utterly difficult!"

Shen Xuan thought to himself with emotion.

Divine thoughts moved slightly.

The mysterious golden symbol displays ancient, simple characters.

[Spiritual Root: Water 51/100]

Six months ago, he accepted another order for poison talismans from the Huang family of Silver Hook Island.

In addition to the extra poison talismans, the Huang family also sent a second-tier sea monster's essence blood as a reward.

Emperor Crab.

Shen Xuan successfully plundered the bloodline talent and advanced [Iron Bones] to its peak.

It turns out that the bloodline talents of the same type of demon beast can be stacked.

At the same time, it improved the aptitude of two water elemental roots.

Now, he already possesses a superior spiritual root.

It stands to reason.

It takes several years for an ordinary cultivator to refine themselves to the point of perfect Qi Refining before they can attempt to break through to Foundation Establishment.

At this moment, tempered by talents such as [Iron Bones], [Overturning Seas and Lightning], [Immunity to All Poisons], and [Silver Hook Poison], his physical strength surpasses that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Its resistance to poison, lightning, electricity, and physical damage is extremely strong.

His spiritual power, divine sense, and divine soul are also far superior to those of others of the same level due to various talents.

Therefore, after consolidating his cultivation level, Shen Xuan planned to go to the East Sea to hunt second-tier sea monsters and collect high-quality monster cores as the main ingredient for Foundation Establishment Pills.

Apart from the demon core and the bio-fruit, he had collected all the other main and auxiliary materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

With Shen Xuan's current conditions, plus his superior spiritual root aptitude.

With just one Foundation Establishment Pill, he was 99% confident of successfully establishing his foundation.

"However, it's always better to prepare for some things in advance."

A glint of light flashed in Shen Xuan's eyes.

The Zheng family of Mingyang Island, along with Daoist Qingyuan of the Biyue Sect, have been haunting him, disturbing his peaceful cultivation.

Over the past year, Shen Xuan exhausted all his Daoist energy before finally advancing the [Immortal Slaying Water Technique Qi] to proficiency.

It's all to prevent problems before they occur.

Shen Xuan walked out of the training room.

Ding Yuyao, his wife, had been waiting for a long time.

"Husband, you've broken through?"

"Ah."

The two walked hand in hand to the backyard, sat together, and gazed at the horizon where the sky and water met.

It was the time when the sun rose in the east.

The sea of clouds rolled and shone with countless golden rays, creating a beautiful scene between heaven and earth, with golden carp leaping out of the sea every now and then.

Life is like a game of chess; plants flourish and wither, and mountains, rivers, sun, and moon are all indifferent.

Life is born in the sea, mountains and rivers, but that's all there is to it.

Cultivators appear carefree and roam the world freely.

Actually, they're no different from the fish and shrimp in the East China Sea.

I toil all day long, just to live a good life.

The way of Heaven is like a net.

Everyone in the world is caught in the web.

Two months later.

Shen Xuan stabilized his cultivation level.

I took Ding Yuyao to Zhao Chunsheng's house.

Ding Yuyao was disguised as a shop assistant and led by Yu Zhenxiu to return to Longmen Market with the Tianfu Merchant Alliance's caravan.

There, her classmate Wang Fugui would meet her.
