Awakening to cultivate immortality, he impulsively marries a beautiful CEO on the day of his divorce

Xu Linwei was so frightened that she almost jumped out of her skin and threw herself into Chen Yi's arms.

It turned out to be a black-tailed snake as thick as an arm.

"I'll beat you to death, you beast!"

Chen Jianguo roared and picked up a tree branch from the roadside, striking the snake with it.

The grass rustled, and the snake darted away, disappearing without a trace in no time.

Xu Linwei clung tightly to Chen Yi, her palms sweating with fear.

Chen Yi smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, that's a rat snake. It looks scary but it's not dangerous. It's not poisonous and it runs away when it sees people."

Xu Linwei felt a wave of fear wash over her.

"Don't be afraid, it's such a thick and big thing, of course you'd be afraid."

Chen Jianguo came back.

"In the middle of summer, these are the kinds of things that grow most abundantly in the grass."

"Oh no! What should I do? What if I accidentally step on it and get bitten?"

Xu Linwei dared not walk any further.

Chen Jianguo broke off a long stick by the roadside, patted it in the grass, and said:

"Don't be afraid. Snakes are actually afraid of people. If you pat them as you walk, they'll sense it and run away before you get caught. This is called 'beating the grass to scare the snake.'"

After saying that, he walked ahead while patting the grass on both sides.

Chen Yi, holding Xu Linwei's hand, said, "When we were kids, we always walked mountain paths like this, and that way we were guaranteed not to encounter any snakes."

"real?"

Xu Linwei was skeptical, but followed Chen Jianguo forward.

After walking for a while without encountering any more accidents, I suddenly felt like having fun.

"Dad, give me the stick, I'll hit it."

Chen Jianguo didn't refuse; he handed the stick to Xu Linwei and broke off another one for himself.

He continued to lead the way, while Xu Linwei followed behind, patting him left and right, getting happier with each pat.

This rural life is quite interesting.

In June, the weather was hot, and after crossing the ravine and climbing uphill, Xu Linwei was too exhausted to walk any further.

Chen Yi had no choice but to carry her uphill. The three of them arrived at a mud-walled, tiled house, which was Chen Yi's old residence.

Weeds grew rampant at the entrance, and part of the roof had collapsed.

Chen Yi scanned the area with his divine sense and, confirming there was no danger, the three of them opened the door and went inside.

The sunlight inside was dappled, and there were rubble everywhere. Chen Yi carefully explored with his divine sense but found nothing.

Was that dream just a dream?

He smiled slightly and was about to leave when he suddenly noticed a portrait hanging in the center of the main room.

He remembered that portrait; it had been hanging there ever since he could remember.

It was a man, but only his back was visible, so his face was not seen.

The man was tall and strong, dressed in a wide-sleeved robe, with a long sword hanging at his waist.

Chen Yi pointed at the portrait and asked, "Dad, is this a portrait of our family? Why is it here?"

Chen Jianguo shook his head: "I don't know either. I think I've been here since I was a child. Your grandfather told me not to move, so I haven't."

Strangely enough, Chen Yi examined the painting closely and realized it was quite old, as the paper was yellowed.

Chen Yi asked, "Dad, do we have any incense at home?"

Chen Jianguo said, "Yes, but I didn't bring it with me."

"Wait here, I'll go back and get it." Chen Yi said as he went out the door and quickly walked down the hillside.

Chen Jianguo and Xu Linwei both wondered, "What's this guy up to?"

Soon, Chen Yi brought over a bundle of incense.

Light three sticks, stand respectfully before the portrait, and your consciousness will naturally disperse.

Incense is used to attract spirits and as a medium for communicating with the supernatural.

About two minutes.

hum!

Chen Yi's consciousness suddenly trembled slightly, and a surge of powerful spiritual energy emanated from the painting.

This painting possesses such a rich spiritual energy that it must be an ancient artifact.

Chen Yi was shocked!

hum!

Suddenly, Chen Yi sensed that the painting was emitting a golden light, and a strange aura emanated from the painting and entered Chen Yi's Niwan Palace.

This aura was exactly the same as the one he received when he paid homage to Emperor Chongzhen, only hundreds of times stronger.

The aura merged with the previous aura, rapidly rotating around the primordial spirit.

Chen Yi felt that his primordial spirit was showing signs of awakening, as if it were sensing that aura.

A person's primordial spirit is generally dormant, and it will only awaken under two circumstances.

First, when a person is about to die, their conscious mind perishes, while their primordial spirit awakens.

The second type is when one cultivates immortality and breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage, awakening the primordial spirit, which can then exist independently of the human body.

For cultivators, the awakening of their primordial spirit is a major event.

Chen Yi immediately sat down cross-legged, discarding all distractions from his conscious mind and allowing his primordial spirit to govern his entire body.

Chen Jianguo was greatly surprised to see this.

What is my son doing?

Why are you acting all mysterious and supernatural?

Xu Linwei said softly, "Dad, let's not disturb him, let's wait outside."

The two quietly went outside.

……

Meanwhile, Huang Quan returned home to find his father, Huang Zheng, drinking alone. On the table sat a plate of peanuts and a bowl of braised vegetables.

Seeing Huang Quan's disheveled appearance, his face darkened.

"Where did you get all covered in dung? Did you go steal chickens?"

"Dad, Chen Jianguo's son is too lawless. You have to teach him a lesson!"

Huang Quan grew angrier the more he thought about it, and poured himself a glass of wine and gulped it down.

Huang Zhengdao: "Chen Jianguo's son? Which son?"

Huang Quan then recounted what had happened.

"Dad, that kid is making a fuss everywhere, causing us to lose tens of thousands of yuan in revenue from gas installation."

"You hit me in public again. If this continues, your prestige in Datian Village will be threatened."

"presumptuous!"

Huang Zheng slammed his hand on the table.

"This is utterly lawless!"

He frowned and glanced at his son: "I'm calling Director Tian. You'd better go wash up right now, you stink!"

Huang Quan was overjoyed upon hearing this.

"Okay, Dad!"

A few minutes later, Huang Quan came out after taking a shower, and his father looked very content.

"Dad, how did it go? What did Chief Tian say?"

Huang Zheng's small eyes flashed with a sharp light: "You immediately take your brothers to the town hospital for a medical examination. Remember, make sure they get the most important parts examined."

I'm going to get that kid charged with intentional assault and sentence him to several years.

"Dare to defy me? I'll chop off your hand!"

Huang Quan was overjoyed upon hearing this.

"Okay, Dad, don't worry, I know what to do."

Then he grabbed a pig's trotter, humming a little tune, and went out while gnawing on it.

……

Xu Linwei sat at the entrance of the old house until sunset. Chen Jianguo got bored and went back to get a sickle. He also cleared the weeds around the old house.

hum!

Suddenly, Xu Linwei sensed movement inside the house and quickly got up and went inside.

She was stunned!

But then they saw Chen Yi sitting cross-legged on the ground, his body radiating a faint halo, like a dream.

This……

What's wrong with my husband?

Is he about to become an immortal?

At this moment, Chen Yi was both surprised and delighted.

The mysterious aura swirled around the primordial spirit, and gradually it was absorbed into the primordial spirit.

At this moment, his primordial spirit glowed with a faint golden light, and had become much stronger.

Is this... a spiritual refinement?

The path of cultivation requires the condensation of an immortal body and an immortal soul. Refining the primordial spirit to its peak transforms it into an immortal soul, which is a prerequisite for ascending to immortality.

Isn't that strange aura the destiny of the human race?

Why did I choose to absorb the human race's fortune to refine my spirit?

Chen Yi didn't understand the reason, but it didn't matter, since it wasn't a bad thing anyway.

He opened his eyes and looked at the portrait in front of him.

Who is this person?

Why does the human race possess such a powerful destiny?

It was hundreds of times stronger than the human fortune obtained when worshipping Emperor Chongzhen.
