My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 202 Promotion and News

Seven days later,
Half-mountain courtyard,

boom! ! !
A powerful aura erupted from within him, sweeping in all directions and creating a substantial airflow that rippled through the plaza.

at the same time,

Shen Changchuan's cultivation level also reached the peak of the mid-stage of the ninth level in one fell swoop!
"it's over!"

After stabilizing his cultivation level following the breakthrough, Shen Changchuan opened his eyes, a sharp light flashing within them. After a long while, he composed himself and let out a long sigh.

In just seven days,
His cultivation level jumped from the early stage of the ninth level to the peak of the middle stage of the ninth level.

Just one step away from reaching the late stage of the ninth level!
And all this,
It's all thanks to that thirty-year-old spirit peach!
Yes,

In order to improve his cultivation, Shen Changchuan refined the spirit peach that could be called a Foundation Establishment spiritual object, which could provide some assistance to cultivators in the Qi Induction Realm when they advance to the Nascent Soul Realm!

"I don't plan to continue using pills for cultivation because they pose certain risks to my body and the magical power I gain. These risks will gradually heal with enough time to be refined and tempered, but given the one-year agreement, I can't afford to spend too much time on this."

"But this spirit peach is different. As a naturally grown spiritual object, it does not contain the potent medicinal power of pills that enhance cultivation, nor the trace amounts of toxicity formed when medicinal materials absorb flames and deteriorate during the refining process to enhance cultivation. Apart from the possibility that the foundation of magical power may become unstable, there are almost no other problems."

"As for the so-called Foundation Establishment spiritual items, once your cultivation level improves, why worry about not having a chance to obtain them?"

"Once I advance to the peak of the ninth level, I will refine my skills further and improve all my techniques. Even if I can't challenge and kill experts at the Nascent Soul stage, I will at least be able to exchange a few blows with such beings."

"The stronger you are, the greater your chances of obtaining rare and precious materials!"

"Just like this time, the treasures were scattered in all directions. If I had the strength of the Nascent Soul Realm, would I have stayed in Dawan Village and been satisfied with just one spirit peach?"

"I might even dare to venture into that legendary ancient site."

"It's all just a matter of insufficient strength!"

Many thoughts flashed through Shen Changchuan's mind.
The slight regret that had arisen in his heart after consuming the spiritual peach, which could be considered a Foundation Establishment spiritual treasure, completely disappeared without a trace.

Admittedly,

Taking the spirit peach directly is arguably the least beneficial method.

Whether it's refined into elixirs or traded away,

The gains and improvements obtained will certainly far exceed those obtained by directly consuming the product.

But obviously,
For Shen Changchuan now...

Taking it directly is actually the best solution.

Cultivation breakthrough complete.

Shen Changchuan did not stop there.

Instead, he continued his meditation practice.

Until two days later,
Having completely mastered this, one could say that one's cultivation level has skyrocketed.

at this point,
This might not be an easy task for other cultivators.
However, Shen Changchuan's divine sense is now powerful enough to leave his body.

It was incredibly simple for him.

As a result, he quickly mastered the surge in his magical power.

As for most of the two days
He spent most of his time consolidating his cultivation level and strengthening his foundation.

in fact,

After refining the spirit peach,
The spiritual power and essence contained within the Spirit Peach are sufficient for Shen Changchuan to raise his cultivation to the late stage of the ninth level.

But he thought about it for a moment,
I feel that breaking through from the early stage of the ninth level to the late stage of the ninth level in a short period of time may make my foundation very unstable, which may be detrimental to my future breakthrough to the Out-of-Body Realm.

to this end,

He directly used his powerful divine sense, which was at the level of the Nascent Soul realm, to suppress the subsequent spiritual power, turning it into nourishment to solidify the foundation of his rapidly increasing cultivation level.

This is why he didn't reach the late stage of the ninth level, but remained at the peak of the middle stage of the ninth level.

But that's enough.
Next,
Shen Changchuan decided to spend one to two months,
He should slowly refine his mid-stage peak level of the ninth level, solidify his foundation, strengthen his base, and then seek a breakthrough.

However, the plan was good.

But not long after,
A message abruptly interrupted his plans.

Two days later,
In a secluded, dense forest,

Nangong Cheng was sitting cross-legged on a huge rock, his eyes closed as if he were waiting for something.

suddenly,

He twitched his brow, opened his eyes, and looked up at the sky.

All that could be seen in the distance was the azure sky.

A dark shadow rapidly expanded on the horizon.
It flew swiftly to within sight, creating a whirlwind before landing on the open ground in front of it.

"Brother Shen, that's fast!"

Nangong Cheng stood up and went to greet him. Looking at the Swift Wind Falcon with wingspans of several meters that it was riding on his feet, a hint of envy flashed in his eyes.

Although he also obtained that beast-taming secret technique from Shen Changchuan,
However, it's really impossible to find a suitable flying monster in a short period of time.

of course,

He wasn't jealous either.
There will always be opportunities later.

Shen Changchuan jumped off Xiao Feng's back and bowed to him.

"I set off shortly after receiving your message. Thank you so much, Brother Nangong, for your hard work and help!"

"Given our life-or-death friendship, why are you saying such a thing?!"

After some polite greetings,
Then, without further ado, Nangong Cheng got straight to the point.

"Regarding the Shen family members you asked me to help find, although I haven't been able to find them all, I have now located traces of two of them."

"Those two somehow ended up with the Qi family and have now returned to their old stronghold in Qi Family Town."

"Those two might just be resting at the Qi family's place for a while. They might leave and return to Tiannan City in a few days, or they might stay at the Qi family's place to recuperate and then use a communication talisman to send a message back to your Shen family in Tiannan City so that your family can intervene in this incident."

"What do you think? Should we ambush them on the way in a few days, or attack the Qi family directly and kill those two to eliminate any future trouble?"

Nangong Cheng looked at Shen Changchuan.

That's his business.
Ultimately, it was Shen Changchuan who made the decision.

This story begins more than two weeks ago.

At that time, after Shen Changchuan was taken away,
Still shaken, he suppressed his fear and decisively left.

Later, worried about Shen Changchuan's situation, he went to Dawan Village.

After learning that Shen Changchuan was alright, Nangong Cheng was relieved.

During the subsequent casual conversation,

Shen Changchuan learned that he was still shaken by the death threat posed by the demonic cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage and did not intend to continue getting involved in this mess, so he had some free time.

He then asked Nangong Cheng for a favor.

That is to find those members of the Shen family who came to hunt down Shen Chong and were greedy for wealth from the prosperity of Dawan Village.

And so, this whole situation came to be.
