When Xiang Zhili saw Zhao Changsheng, who had been waiting for a long time, in the main hall of Hongfu's cave, his expression changed instantly.

"Fellow Daoist, it's been a long time. I hope you will forgive my intrusion."

Zhao Changsheng's words were quite polite, but they shocked Hong Fu so much that she froze on the spot, as if struck by lightning.

Hong Fu was completely at a loss, never expecting that Xiang Zhili behind her was actually a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Hong Fu, you may step back now. I have some private matters to discuss with Fellow Daoist Xiang."

Zhao Changsheng waved to Hong Fu, who was standing there in a daze and motionless, and woke her up.

Although Hong Fu was in turmoil, she left her cave with a respectful expression.

The space was completely left to Zhao Changsheng and Xiang Zhili, the two Nascent Soul cultivators.

After Hong Fu had completely left, Zhao Changsheng finally spoke with a smile:

"Fellow Daoist, please have a seat."

Faced with Zhao Changsheng's invitation, Xiang Zhili did not stand on ceremony and sat down on a chair to the side, revealing his usual cunning smile.

"I wonder what business Fellow Daoist Zhao has with me?"

Faced with the question from Xiang Zhili, a Nascent Soul cultivator, Zhao Changsheng did not hide anything and directly stated his purpose.

"I simply wish to ask you, fellow Daoist, how many Nascent Soul cultivators remain in the mortal realm today? What are their supernatural abilities and strengths like? I feel that having just advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, it is only right and proper for me to pay them a visit. Of course, I would also appreciate it if you could frankly tell me about their character and conduct. I would be most grateful."

After saying this, Zhao Changsheng stood up and bowed to Xiang Zhili.

Zhao Changsheng was very polite and respectful.

"Since Fellow Daoist Zhao has asked, it would be inappropriate for this old man not to speak. In truth, there are not many Nascent Soul cultivators in the mortal realm these days, only a handful. Among them, in terms of supernatural abilities and strength, the one who can rival or even surpass this old man is Hu Laomo of the Demonic Path Heavenly Demon Sect. This old demon is extremely lecherous. His favorite thing to do is to take Nascent Soul stage women as concubines. However, this is related to the cultivation technique he practices."

When Zhao Changsheng asked Xiang Zhili, he calmly and eloquently discussed the current situation of Nascent Soul cultivators in the mortal realm.

The two talked for half a day, and Zhao Changsheng learned a great deal about the current situation of the Nascent Soul stage in the mortal realm.

"Thank you for informing me, Fellow Daoist. This is an eighth-level demon core; consider it a token of my gratitude."

Zhao Changsheng immediately took out an 8th-level demon core and gave it to Xiang Zhili.

"In that case, I won't stand on ceremony."

Faced with such a generous gift, Xiang Zhili naturally did not stand on ceremony and accepted it directly.

"You flatter me, fellow Daoist. It is already a great favor that you have told me all this. What is a mere level 8 demon core? But you can rest assured, fellow Daoist, your identity will absolutely not be exposed."

Zhao Changsheng added another sentence, which made Xiang Zhili nod.

"In that case, I can rest assured. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."

Zhao Changsheng did not stop Xiang Zhili from taking his leave, but personally escorted him out of Hong Fu's cave.

After Xiang Zhili, the Nascent Soul cultivator, left, Hong Fu returned to her cave dwelling with unease.

"Not a single word about him can be leaked. If even a single word is leaked, your entire sect will cease to exist."

Looking at Hong Fu, who was anxious and hesitant to speak, Zhao Changsheng calmly delivered a warning.

"I understand."

Faced with Zhao Changsheng's warning, Hong Fu naturally dared not be negligent and directly expressed that she understood.

Even though she still had many doubts in her heart, she didn't dare to ask them directly.

"Alright, consider these pills as hush money as compensation. Remember to keep your mouth shut and don't say a word."

Zhao Changsheng then took out several bottles of pills that would help Core Formation cultivators and placed them on the table.

"Thank you, my husband."

Hong Fu immediately thanked him upon seeing the elixir.

A look of surprise and excitement appeared on his face.

After all, most cultivators increase their strength through arduous self-cultivation.

Such miraculous pills that can improve one's cultivation level are extremely rare; obtaining even one or two is considered quite good.

Zhao Changsheng simply took out several bottles, which made her very happy and excited.

"There's no need for that. Just focus on your cultivation. With your spiritual root aptitude and cultivation speed, there's still some hope that you'll condense a Nascent Soul in the future, but whether you can actually do so depends on your own destiny."

Zhao Changsheng continued.

Upon hearing this, Hong Fu was even happier.

"I understand, thank you for your guidance, my husband."

"Alright, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now. You can continue your cultivation in your cave."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Changsheng got up to leave, but was stopped by Hong Fu.

"My lord, it's getting late. Why don't you stay another night?"

After saying this, Hong Fu lowered her head like a young girl, her cheeks flushed, and she looked somewhat shy.

When Zhao Changsheng saw Hong Fu's appearance, he immediately understood what she meant.

"Since you want me to stay, then I'll stay, but you'd better not regret it."

"what!"

Hong Fu's surprised exclamation had barely faded when she was swept up in a horizontal embrace.

……

That night lasted for a full ten days.

Hong Fu finally understood why Zhao Changsheng told her not to regret it.

Even so, she had no regrets. The improvement in her cultivation that night was equivalent to several years of hard work in ordinary times.

In this situation, how could she possibly regret it, or even wish she could do it a few more times?

In this way, the chances of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage in the future might be even greater.

But Hong Fu also knew that this was just wishful thinking on her part.

As soon as it was light, Hong Fu released Zhao Changsheng, allowing him to leave her cave.

After Zhao Changsheng left, Hong Fu also told all the disciples and the sect leader who knew about Xiang Zhili to shut up and not to mention the matter again.

Xiang Zhili remained in Huangfeng Valley as always and did not leave, nor was he disturbed in any way, but he did receive some care.

As for Zhao Changsheng, he went to the Chaotic Star Sea after leaving.

This first task is a bit difficult to complete, because the price to pay for killing a cultivator of the same realm is quite high, especially the price of one's lifespan.

Xiang Zhili had specifically reminded Zhao Changsheng of this point.

For cultivators at their level, forcibly exerting their full strength will cause them to lose their vital essence, and their lifespan will naturally be reduced.
