Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 123 Self-Recommendation (10,000-word update, please subscribe)

Shen Xuan was slightly shocked.

He hadn't expected the Su family's welcome to be so grand.

She used her beauty to seduce him right from the start.

Clearly, the Su family was aware of some of their own circumstances.

Shen Xuan was right.

As a long-established and powerful Foundation Establishment family, the Su family had already inquired about his situation.

Knowing that Shen Xuan was quite sentimental, he only married an ordinary woman.

Now that Shen Xuan has established his Dao foundation, it is time for him to have a cultivation partner.

Although slightly older.

However, they can also be highly accomplished cultivators, disciples of true masters, second-tier talisman masters, foundation-building cultivators, and so on, with their status being extraordinary.

In Qingyang Prefecture, Shen Xuan's qualifications are top-notch.

As long as his body could handle it, he could take in eight or ten beautiful concubines, and there would be people willing to do so.

"Fellow Daoist Su is joking."

"Mr. Shen has no plans to get married at the moment."

Shen Xuan shook his head, politely declining the Su family's offer.

He had no intention of aligning himself with the Su family.

This is just a small part of his long journey of cultivation.

As he spoke, Shen Xuan subconsciously glanced at the young women.

One of the girls, a graceful young woman with bright eyes and white teeth, was hiding in the second row, her face aloof and her expression indifferent.

They couldn't even be bothered to put on a smile.

Shen Xuan's gaze swept over them.

Although her appearance was somewhat stunning, I didn't take it to heart.

He's not the kind of person who can't resist a beautiful woman.

Successful men are never short of young and beautiful women.

However, a beautiful young woman standing at the very front, with a gentle and charming demeanor, kept her gaze fixed on Shen Xuan.

His eyes seemed to sparkle with starlight, bright and clear.

The other many young women each had different expressions in their eyes, revealing complex emotions.

Shen Xuan adopted a cold and aloof expression, seemingly in a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, and offered no response whatsoever.

Seeing that Shen Xuan had no interest.

The head of the Su family gestured for the young men and women to make way, and led Shen Xuan into the Su family compound.

On the road.

The head of the Su family personally introduced the Su family's situation.

More than a thousand Su family cultivators, five of whom were at the Foundation Establishment stage.

In addition, there are two other enshrined figures, both of whom are at the Foundation Establishment stage.

A weapon refiner, a puppeteer.

Upon entering the Su family's territory, the two retainers came to greet them together.

After exchanging greetings, there was another round of pleasantries.

The weapon refiner Yu Zhihua and the puppeteer Zhuang Ping were both very polite to Shen Xuan.

After all, he came here as a disciple of the Qingyun Sect.

As worshippers, their relationship with the Su family is mainly maintained through a combination of interests.

After the cooperation period expires.

The Su family can dismiss them.

They can leave too.

……

The Su family's estate was built on the mountainside of Feiyun Mountain, resembling a small-scale fairy city.

Spiritual fields have been cultivated around the spiritual veins of Feiyun Mountain, where spiritual grains are grown.

Some of the better spiritual sites were developed into spiritual plant gardens, where some low-level spiritual plants were planted.

In one of the bamboo groves, thousands of first-grade high-quality spiritual plants, Thunder Crystal Bamboo, were planted.

In addition, there is a Coldheart Black Iron Mine in Feiyun Mountain.

Although the value is not high, the output is stable, and the annual income can reach nearly 10,000 spirit stones.

Within the clan's territory, in addition to the core Su family manor, more than ten cave dwellings have been developed along the spiritual veins.

Each cave dwelling is a second-tier training ground, luxurious and grand.

These cave dwellings are all for Foundation Establishment cultivators to live in.

Tens of thousands of ordinary people lived on the outskirts of the Su family estate.

Most of them are body cultivators or worldly masters.

These should be ordinary people of the Su family, with a skill that allows them to make a living in Feiyun Mountain.

“These mortals are our Su family’s blood relatives, and they all have some skills to make a living.”

"Those who lacked ability moved to the prefectures and counties at the foot of the mountain."

The head of the Su family offered an explanation. He then led Shen Xuan to the clan affairs hall to complete the formalities, including obtaining his identity jade token.

"I wonder which cave dwelling Master Shen would like to choose?"

"I've heard there's a Black Dragon Pool in Feiyun Mountain, and I'd like to go see it."

Half an hour later, Shen Xuan arrived at Black Dragon Pool.

It was already noon.

However, the ancient trees by the Black Dragon Pool exude a cool breeze, making one feel a sense of loneliness.

Black Dragon Pool covers an area of ​​only a dozen square kilometers. The water in the pool is dark black, like a black gemstone inlaid in the mountains and forests.

The pool is quiet and deep, vaguely reflecting the lush mountains and forests around it, its bottom unseen.

Shen Xuan stood by the pool and watched silently for a while.

[Insight] Cannot detect the depth of the pool.

Shen Xuan simply leaped into the Black Dragon Pool and used his [Water Control] technique to dive to the bottom.

Soon, he went deep into the Black Dragon Pool, a hundred feet below.

At this moment, many strangely shaped rocks emerged from the bottom of the pool, resembling knives and halberds, seemingly rich in some kind of metallic mineral, and extremely sharp.

Shen Xuan carefully avoided the rocks.

As they continued diving deeper, the bottom of the pool turned pitch black.

The Azure Water Sword was summoned, emitting azure-green spiritual light.

At this moment, Shen Xuan noticed that there were many white, transparent jellyfish shaped like peach blossoms floating leisurely in the water, each with its own little umbrella.

"Peach blossom jellyfish?"

As if recognizing the aquatic creature before him, Shen Xuan's guess was confirmed.

This Black Dragon Pool is hundreds of feet deep, with an underground river at the bottom, forming an underwater waterway.

Sure enough, as the diving depth increased, Shen Xuan encountered some transparent demon shrimp, only two or three centimeters in size, with completely degenerated eyes.

Further down, they encountered some even more powerful spirit fish.

Among them, a giant golden catfish, several meters long, quickly burrowed into a dark hole after noticing Shen Xuan.

There are hundreds of such holes, resembling gaping, man-eating mouths.

Shen Xuan followed the giant golden catfish, controlling the water as he went.

An hour later, Shen Xuan emerged from the underground river cave and appeared in a tributary of a large river.

Shen Xuan surfaced, observed the area for a while, and then returned to Black Dragon Pool through the entrance of the underground river cave.

……

At dusk, Shen Xuan came to the clan affairs hall again.

"Is it Master Shen?"

As soon as he entered the main hall, a young girl of about eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in a pale yellow fairy dress, came over and bowed respectfully to him.

"I am Su Xue'er, and I am in charge of handling the daily affairs of the servants."

Shen Xuan had some impression of her.

When he first arrived at the Su family's territory, Su Xue'er was among the dozen or so young girls who lined up to welcome him.

She has a gentle and charming temperament, and her eyes sparkle like stars.

Now, when he hears her speak, her tone is gentle and sweet, which makes him feel very comfortable.

"I'll choose a cave dwelling."

"Yes, I will register Master Shen right away."

"Let's choose this cave dwelling."

Shen Xuan pointed to the cave dwelling beside the Black Dragon Pool.

“Master Shen, could you give this cave a new name?”

"Let's call it Tingyuxuan (Listening to the Rain Pavilion)."

Listening to the rain by the pool serves as a constant reminder that one should not waste one's life.

"I will now complete the formalities for Master Shen."

After Su Xueer finished registering, she took the registration book and asked Shen Xuan to sign it.

Her soft body gently touched Shen Xuan's body.

Exhale like a orchid.

The mountain peaks stand tall and graceful, revealing their slightly upturned outlines, all covered in snow.

Her pretty face suddenly flushed, and the black hair on her forehead danced lightly without wind, giving her a captivating lightness.

“Master Shen, I am very capable.”

Su Xue'er's eyes were brimming with autumn water, revealing a hint of longing and anticipation.

"Is this servant very capable?"

Shen Xuan was taken aback.

Why did he feel that the meaning of that sentence was somewhat inappropriate?
Look again.

Su Xue'er's flushed face was tilted slightly upwards, her eyes fixed on Shen Xuan without blinking.

Shen Xuan was somewhat tempted.

"Are you really that capable?"
