Become a true immortal by emulating all demons.

"I didn't mean any harm!"

Inside a side room of the dilapidated courtyard, the porcelain doll awkwardly rubbed her cheeks and muttered to herself:

"Besides, after we immortal descendants are born, we rely on digesting the inheritance to obtain our earliest memories. You woke me up prematurely, so my memories are definitely incomplete."

"Everything I said is true, I just exaggerated it a little bit, just to give you some confidence."

After saying that, she cautiously glanced at the young man beside her.

It's the first time I've given away my essence and blood; I'm not quite used to it yet.

I need to be more careful in the future and not let my mind wander.

"..."

Lin Shu was too lazy to argue with her.

Although Yu Sheng made it all up, the other party stumbled upon the correct conclusion.

At least on this land beneath their feet, the Yu family, with a half-life immortal in charge, is indeed very powerful.

There are good and bad aspects to this.

After all, no matter how powerful the Yu family is, it has nothing to do with me now, but...

Lin Shu lowered her eyes and glanced at her chest. If she remembered correctly, this little wolf phantom was indeed related to the Half-Life Immortal.

In other words, the person who keeps it on their person is most likely from a similarly powerful force.

Lin Shu would not allow his body to be taken away until he could repair it or find another way to prolong his life.

"You really need a powerful backer."

He exhaled softly.

The infamous Silk-Wearing Wolf possesses enough strength to protect itself.

However, because the Chen family behind him were wandering immortals, he could only feel as bewildered and desperate as an ordinary person when faced with the city being sealed off, and began to seek any treatment in desperation.

Given that the opponent has reached the peak of Qi Refining, there is a high probability that they will be able to hold out until the city opens.

What she was worried about was her lack of status; even if the city was opened, she wouldn't be able to regain her freedom, which is why she wanted to escape.

"..."

Lin Shu pondered for a long time.

If I could truly become a disciple of the Mountain God, I should be a little safer in the Yongzhou region.

Anyway, given Yu Sheng's fear of death and pain, she never worried about who would dare to keep her after the city was opened.

"Do you even recognize this thing?"

He took out the bottle of Qi Gathering Pills and poured them into his palm. They were ten jade-colored pills, each the size of a soybean.

"I don't recognize it, but I know what it's for." Yu Sheng stood up unsteadily, and specks of blue light gradually emerged on her fair and delicate skin.

"The magic techniques originate from the supernatural powers of immortals. Each immortal has a different aura; some are known for their agility, while others are known for their strength in subduing demons."

"If you want to unleash the true power of the technique, you must bring your own spiritual energy closer to that of this immortal."

As she spoke, Yu Sheng closed her eyes and spread out her two chubby arms.

Come on, come and feel me!

"Can you feel anything?" she asked curiously after waiting for a while.

"No." Lin Shu looked at the specks of blue light on her body, but didn't feel much.

"That's not right! You've cultivated to this level in a place like Blackwater City. While you might not be considered exceptionally intelligent, you shouldn't be this dull-witted either."

Yu Sheng opened her eyes in confusion; this was the first time she had voluntarily let go of her body scent.

Even if the other party cannot comprehend the technique, they should still have some kind of profound sense of it.

Before the words were finished, a clanging sound of a sword striking the ground suddenly rang out from inside the courtyard!

Clang——

The two of them looked out the window together, and then their gazes fell on the tightly closed door across the street.

The sound of the sword quickly faded away, but the chilling aura it contained lingered in the dilapidated courtyard for a long time.

"That's more like it! You scared me to death. I almost thought even my memory of being a descendant of immortals was wrong."

Yu Sheng patted her chest.

Then, as if remembering something, he looked annoyed.

She deliberately brought Yunniang in because she sensed that this person was extraordinary.

He planned to take the other person as a disciple when the time was right, so that they could protect him and his wife.

Unfortunately, since her physical body had not yet awakened, Yu Sheng dared not easily break the formation and let Yun Niang feel the immortal energy, fearing it would attract the attention of outsiders.

If I had known Lin Shuqiang would barge in, I would have been better off taking a gamble beforehand!

Based on the talent this girl has shown, after two years of training, when that Lin fellow comes in, she can pierce his heart with a single sword.

Oh, since there's no heart left, then it'll be the kidneys!

"What kind of immortal technique did she comprehend?" Lin Shu slowly withdrew her gaze.

"The sixth-grade entry-level internal technique, the Azure Bird Sword Heart Technique, should be the path of the sect leader's disciple, which is different from your Azure Bird Qi Guiding Technique."

"The former is about killing and warfare, while the latter is about nourishing one's vital energy." Yu Sheng bit her finger and pondered for a long time before finally giving her answer.

"So, she's more skilled in combat, which is why my cultivation level improved faster?" Lin Shu roughly understood some of what she meant.

"No, she's faster at cultivation too." Yu Sheng shook her head seriously.

She tiptoed and patted the young man's shoulder reassuringly: "It's alright, we don't rely on strength, we rely on background, we have prestige! You just become the first disciple of the Yu family to cultivate the Azure Bird Qi Induction Technique, and follow me to be the local tyrant on the mountain!"

"Oh."

Lin Shu glanced at her with a forced smile.

Previously, it was said that the status of the Mountain Master and the World Walker were about the same, but their cultivation methods were so different that it would be a miracle if they were about the same.

Even if one has never been in contact with the immortal sects, one can still tell.

The sect leader is clearly being trained as an inner disciple, while the disciples who go out into the world... are destined to be cannon fodder.

As for the cub's promise, just ignore it.

Fortunately, the Azure Bird Qi-Gathering Technique has been transformed into the Spirit Sparrow Qi-Eating Method by Shan Gong, which has at least resulted in a significant leap in the speed of Qi absorption.

It's not necessarily true that their methods are inferior to those of the sect leader's disciples.

"Let's talk about pills instead." Lin Shu didn't want to get too entangled with the other party about things like "comprehension".

"Nothing much to say, just eat!" Yu Sheng tried to make the blue light around her even more intense:

"Your internal cultivation technique is already at the sixth level of perfection, absorbing a hundred strands of Qi. You only need a third-level technique and a suitable opportunity to break through to the late stage of Qi Refining."

"With the help of this pill, first transform ten strands of immortal energy. This will not only greatly increase the power of your techniques and allow you to experience the feeling of the late stage of Qi Refining in advance, but it will also make it easier for you to comprehend the second volume of the Azure Bird Qi Guiding Technique in the future."

"..."

Lin Shu focused her mind and quickly activated the Spirit Sparrow Breathing Technique.

He put a pill into his mouth.

The medicine carried a slight coolness, which suddenly boosted his perception. Amidst the shimmering blue light, he gradually heard gusts of wind.

The Yu family mountain god controls the fierce winds and governs spiritual energy!

Lin Shu carefully sensed the breeze, then cautiously channeled it into the streams of white energy within her body.

The moment the two merged, a wisp of white mist emerged from within, emanating a green hue.

Until the entire wisp of white spiritual energy turned into a deep cyan color, swaying and fluttering with the rest of the white energy, it stood out like a crane among chickens!

As her perception rapidly declined, Lin Shu swallowed another Spirit Gathering Pill, and the number of pills in her palm quickly decreased.

He may not be as talented as others.

But the privilege of having a celestial descendant sitting right next to you, constantly providing celestial aura, is something that other cultivators in Blackwater City can never enjoy.

I don't know how much time passed.

Among the hundreds of wisps of swaying spiritual energy, ten of them transformed into azure shapes. They were like soft strips of cloth that had suddenly turned into steel blades. Although they contained the same energy, their textures were completely different.

If one were to use this kind of celestial spiritual energy to activate the technique, the effect would probably be more than doubled.

"Alright, until you use up these ten strands of Azure Sparrow spiritual power, you're no different from a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator." Yu Sheng yawned.

"Is this a disposable item?" Lin Shu opened her eyes.

The Spirit Gathering Pill seems to only help cultivators sense the immortal aura more quickly; the real method of converting spiritual energy should be recorded in the upper three-grade internal techniques.

"Otherwise, unless you can build a foundation for this spiritual energy, then the spiritual energy you breathe in from heaven and earth will automatically transform into immortal spiritual energy once it passes through the foundation."

"Gathering a hundred strands of Qi is barely enough to build the worst possible foundation."

"But that's something for after the Foundation Establishment stage." Yu Sheng withdrew the clear light within her body, jumped off the bed, climbed to the window, pushed it open a crack, and took in a few sheets of paper that were weighed down by stones.

"This little girl is thoughtful; she was afraid of disturbing you, so she secretly put it down and went back to her room." She casually flipped through it and threw it on the bed.

Lin Shu picked it up and glanced at it.

The ink was still wet, and the handwriting was slightly messy compared to the previous neatness, obviously because the writer was worried about forgetting the content and wanted to copy it down quickly.

Azure Sparrow Sword Heart Technique.

His expression became somewhat complicated.

In a place like Blackwater City, to give away one's own enlightened inner cultivation technique for nothing is beyond the bounds of ordinary neighbors.

"However, she's overthinking it. Those who can cultivate will understand on their own, and those who can't understand won't understand no matter how much you study. How can someone who has never sensed that wisp of sword intent cultivate a sword heart?"

Yu Sheng skipped back to bed. She didn't care about Lin Shu's cultivation level; she only hoped that he would live.

Anyway, once we get back to the Yu family, who would dare to rush up the mountain and provoke us?

"..."

Lin Shu folded the papers and put them away, not too disappointed.

With enough good deeds, one can always deduce better inner methods.

Now that his strength has increased, taking advantage of the tiger's birthday celebration, his chances of earning these white jade coins have become much greater.

As dawn approached, he got up and walked towards the door.

Lin Shu planned to investigate what kind of congratulatory gift the Blackwater Gang members had prepared for Xia Mingtang.
