Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 181 Sudden Change in the Wu Family (10,000-word update, please subscribe)

"Breakthrough!"

Shen Xuan gently patted the White Lotus Fairy's pretty face to show his delight.

After reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm, breaking through smaller stages becomes relatively easier.

The chances of failure are slim.

The White Lotus Fairy standing guard outside the training room is more of a statement than a declaration of support.

A year ago, in the Xiaoyao Tower, Shen Xuan exposed Murong Jun's identity as the Demon Prince of the Blood Spirit Sect and killed him.

Since then, the Su family has announced a ten-year hiatus.

Shen Xuan was happy to have some peace and quiet, and he secluded himself in Tingyuxuan to cultivate diligently.

During this period, the only outsider who was allowed to freely enter and leave the Su family's territory was Fairy White Lotus.

It is said that on that day, when Qian Zhiwen, the third young master of the Qian family, saw the White Lotus Fairy taking the initiative to link arms with Shen Xuan, he was heartbroken.

After returning home, he neither ate nor drank for more than ten days.

In the quiet of the night, I suddenly had an epiphany and let go of my obsession.

He sent a message to the White Lotus Fairy, saying that he would no longer bother her.

This also made the White Lotus Fairy quite melancholy.

"Shen Lang, Bai Lian's escape route is gone..."

However, Shen Xuan did not comfort her at all.

The actions became even more violent!

Let the White Lotus Fairy gasp for breath and ejaculate uncontrollably!
afterwards.

Shen Xuan clearly told the White Lotus Fairy.

His ambition is to attain immortality and enlightenment, and he will not seek a partner to marry.

No matter who the other party is.

If the White Lotus Fairy is willing.

The two continued their casual affair.

If you're unwilling, let's part ways amicably.

The White Lotus Fairy was very sad for a while.

I haven't been to Tingyuxuan for two months.

When she came again, she was all smiles and never mentioned marriage again.

Shen Xuan guessed that the White Lotus Fairy must have come to a realization.

There was no one in Qingyang Prefecture whom she looked down upon.

Compared to Shen Xuan, the Foundation Establishment cultivators from these cultivation families are in much worse condition.

Weak in strength, even weaker in earning power.

Shen Xuan was more to her liking.

The two reached an understanding.

They actually get along better.

The White Lotus Fairy no longer cared about Yunying's unmarried status.

He often stayed overnight at Tingyuxuan.

In any case, her relationship with Shen Xuan was common knowledge among all the Foundation Establishment cultivators in Qingyang Prefecture.

For cultivation families, being able to associate with a true disciple of the Qingyun Sect is not shameful at all; on the contrary, it is something to be proud of.

That evening, Shen Xuan took a bath.

I was thoroughly enjoying the thoughtful service from the White Lotus Fairy.

afterwards.

The White Lotus Fairy was exhausted.

She lay lazily in Shen Xuan's arms.

"Bai Lian, I remember you said you knew information about a Ghost Market cultivator."

The White Lotus Fairy immediately perked up.

"Shen Lang intends to attack that person?"

"That man is very wealthy; with Shen Lang's methods, it will be effortless!"

Shen Xuan was speechless.

He slapped Bai Lian's pert buttocks hard.

"What are you thinking about!"

"I just want to buy something from him!"

The Yin-devouring demonic insects grew too fast and reproduced too many times, almost consuming all the Yin spirits in the Soul-summoning Banner.

Shen Xuan planned to find the ghost market vendor and buy some slightly better quality ghosts.

"Shen Lang is so capable, why does he need to buy it? Wouldn't it be better to just rob him?"

The White Lotus Fairy muttered to herself.

Shen Xuan slapped him again.

This time, I used a little more force.

The beating made the White Lotus Fairy cry out in a coquettish voice.

"Shen Lang!"

"Can't you use your brain for once?!"

Shen Xuan was exasperated: "You think you're the only one who knows that person's identity?"

"Your two old men, as well as the ancestors and heads of the Zhao and Wu families, have been deeply involved in Qingyang Prefecture for so many years, and you still don't know?"

"Guess why they didn't make a move?"

The White Lotus Fairy asked naively, "Why?"

"Either the opponent is too strong, and it would be a losing proposition, or the opponent has powerful backing, and we don't want to offend them."

The White Lotus Fairy then suddenly realized what was going on.

……

For Shen Xuan, the White Lotus Fairy was still somewhat useful.

Born into the Zhou family of Beast Tamers, she is also a Foundation Establishment stage female cultivator.

In Qingyang Prefecture, Fairy Bailian's fair trade with the Ghost Market cultivators was essentially risk-free.

The White Lotus Fairy quickly took care of the matter.

He used ten poison talismans to exchange for over a hundred mid-grade first-tier Yin spirits, which he then incorporated into the Soul Summoning Banner.

"Wraiths are so cheap?"

"Ten spirit stones each, that's very expensive!"

"That person bought it from a disciple of the Netherworld Sect in Liang Kingdom. He sold it to Bai Lian for at least double the price!"

Shen Xuan smiled. Cheap is good.

From now on, there will be no need to worry about a lack of spirits to feed the Yin-devouring demon worms.

These monstrous insects only become effective when their numbers are overwhelming.

Moreover, a larger quantity makes it easier for mutated demonic insects to emerge and advance in rank.

"Shen Lang, Bai Lian has handled things well. How should you reward me?"

"Okay, go take a shower first! I'll reward you handsomely later!"

Shen Xuan didn't just make empty promises.

After a rigorous training session.

He took out thirty thunder talismans and one hundred poison talismans and gave them to the White Lotus Fairy to sell.

"Eighteen thousand spirit stones. The rest is yours!"

"Shen Lang is so good!"

The White Lotus Fairy happily accepted it.

She knew very well the prices of thunder talismans and poison talismans.

These talismans can be sold for over 20,000 spirit stones.

Shen Xuan was clearly rewarding her, letting her make a profit from it.

Shen Xuan has always been generous to his friends.

Especially such close friends who are always there for each other.

Even if it were to go to Tianxiang Pavilion, someone of the White Lotus Fairy's caliber would be worth this price.

He stayed in Qingyang Prefecture for eight years.

Apart from Su Xueer, there is no one I can trust.

Even Su Xueer's trust was limited.

She is only at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, and she also has younger siblings.

Relatively speaking, the White Lotus Fairy is more effective.

Whether it's their private life or their external transactions.

The White Lotus Fairy displayed the strength of a Foundation Establishment Realm fairy.

He was the only outsider left in the entire Su family.

After Luo Ping was executed, the weapon refiner Yu Zhihua also terminated his contract and left.

Shen Xuan needs a partner to maintain contact with the outside world.

The White Lotus Fairy is the best choice.

……

After breaking through to the second level of Foundation Establishment.

Shen Xuan continues to live a secluded life.

Internal affairs were entrusted to Su Xueer.

Foreign affairs were entrusted to the White Lotus Fairy.

He focused his main efforts on cultivating the [Immortal-Slaying Water Qi Technique].

Although it is still in the early stages of development.

My experience points are starting to increase again.

Before we knew it, half of it had already passed.

Occasionally, I also practice [Thor's Wrath] and [Water Spirit Absorption].

However, progress has been somewhat disappointing.

"If only we could acquire the Thunder Beast and the Jade Spirit Clam."

Plundering the bloodline talents of demonic beasts can quickly advance the proficiency of talent skills.

However, this is a difficult thing.

Both of these monsters are extremely rare species.

For more than a year, no good news came from Yunyuan Immortal City or the Gu Family of Haicheng.

"You still have to rely on yourself for everything!"

Shen Xuan thought to himself.

However, there's no rush.

Once he successfully refines the octopus corpse beast, he will be able to hunt in the deep sea.

In the Sunset Lake of the Shadow Forest, there is also a Deep Sea Hook Serpent, a second-tier superior-grade serpent.

Unfortunately, he couldn't beat them.

Otherwise, the essence of the deep-sea hook serpent would surely allow one to plunder extremely powerful innate skills.

Significantly improves spiritual root aptitude.

Corpses can also be used to create corpse beasts.

"We're still not strong enough!"

This left Shen Xuan feeling powerless.

As my cultivation level increases, I increasingly feel like a mayfly, as insignificant as a speck of dust in the grand scheme of things.

Fortunately, he had a mysterious jade talisman.

It can plunder the bloodline talents of demonic beasts and improve their spiritual root aptitude.

Currently, his water elemental root is as high as 68 points.

It's not far from the 80 points required for a Heavenly Spiritual Root.

Let alone reaching the completion of the foundation building stage.

Even if one reaches the Core Formation stage, a glimmer of hope remains.

In his spare time from cultivation, Shen Xuan insisted on setting aside an hour to make thunder talismans.

These are high-quality lightning talismans, possessing immense power and are the nemesis of demonic cultivators. Store them all away.

Ordinary thunder talismans were sold by the White Lotus Fairy in exchange for spirit stones.

With just the Thunder Talisman, Shen Xuan can earn more than 30,000 spirit stones a year.

This doesn't even include the exquisite thunder talismans he intercepted.

His ability to earn spirit stones was something that even the White Lotus Fairy envied.

They became even more devoted to him.

That day, Shen Xuan had just finished his cultivation.

The White Lotus Fairy brought him some amazing news.

"The head of the Wu family of Chiyan has stepped down, and Wu Yulan has become the new head of the family!"
