Chapter 558 - 540: Bidding Farewell and Leaving_2
After achieving Divinity Transformation, the cultivator’s magical power is at least ten thousand Armors of the Zodiac, and controlling it is indeed overwhelming; however, if one loses control, it is also very easy to go astray and fall into mortal peril.
He now has thirty thousand Armors of the Zodiac of magical power, which is very strong, but also more dangerous.
Divinity Transformation cultivators do not act lightly.
Although there is an element of cherishing life, it’s also because every time a Divinity Transformation cultivator takes action, they face the risk of losing control over their magical power.
Many Divinity Transformation cultivators need to cultivate themselves, stay calm, and avoid extreme joy and sorrow, because even a slight slip in mental realm can let the heart demon take advantage, leading to going astray and losing control of their magical power, resulting in death.
...
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, three years had gone by.
The once young boy gradually grew up, and for three years straight, without missing a day, he struck a wooden stake three thousand times.
"Sir, I did it!"
The young boy said, now already eleven years old.
"Very good, your perseverance is commendable!" Lu Xuanji said, "You originally had no Spirit Root and were destined to be a mortal, but to me, these are nothing. I will pass on a cultivation technique to you, and how you progress in cultivation depends on your creation!"
With a point of his finger, a cultivation technique was passed on.
"Innate Creation Skill."
This technique comes from Qi Country, and when cultivated to a certain realm, it can allow mortals to develop a Spirit Root.
The difficulty is very low in the early stages but very high in the later stages.
However, when trying to deduce beyond the Sixth Layer, Lu Xuanji couldn’t deduce further.
After a long time, the young boy opened his eyes, immediately knelt on the ground, and kowtowed, making a thudding sound on the ground, "Thank you, Master, for the teaching grace!"
"Go on then!"
Lu Xuanji said.
The young boy happily delved into the Innate Creation Skill, operated the technique’s mysteries, and manipulated qi and blood to enhance his Life Origin.
Lu Xuanji smiled and took out some low-level elixirs, beginning to administer them to the young boy.
Without the support of elixirs, this martial art cultivation technique is very difficult to sustain.
...
"Congratulations, sister, husband has decided to take the young boy as a disciple!"
On the pavilion, two women stood, one noble and elegant, was Jin Xi.
Jin Xi’s countenance was peerless, smiling, but her smile contained a hint of teasing.
With no makeup, dressed in a dress with red cloud pattern gold trim, a gold belt around her waist. A touch of bright red flame was painted at the brow, proud and sharp. Her black long hair draped over her shoulders, her limbs slender and well-proportioned, her figure voluptuous and captivating.
Her black hair was styled into a high and beautiful chignon, a dazzling gold-thread eight treasures hairpin adorned with pearls that sparkled, and her bright red lips slightly upturned.
White as snow, red as fire, her striking beauty captivating, dressed in a bright yellow silk dress, a green ribbon tied at the waist, showcasing her graceful figure, wandering in front of the mirror, exuding myriad charms.
Zhao Yu’Er smiled and said, "Thank you, elder sister, for the compliment!"
Jin Xi smiled and said, "It’s not merely a compliment, but the young boy’s perseverance is truly commendable and worth nurturing. As for elder sister, it’s a shame, born with a Celestial Spirit Root, originally had the chance to embark on the path of cultivating immortality, but because of wasted time, there was no hope, however, meeting me, there’s still hope!"
"I’ll teach you a cultivation technique as well!"
With a point of Jin Xi’s finger, a message was transmitted. This cultivation technique was named the "Water Spirit Scripture," which can be cultivated up to the Golden Core Realm, without any particular advantages, its only advantage being that it is easy to get started, simple to understand, and allows quick cultivation speed.
Zhao Yu’Er gratefully said, "Thank you, elder sister!"
Jin Xi said, "It’s just a small gesture, but what do you think of my husband? If you like him, I can act as an intermediary; if not, then let it be. However, once we leave this time, who knows how long it’ll be before we meet again!"
Zhao Yu’Er was silent for a moment and then said, "Elder sister is so match-making, how could younger sister forget. Thank you, elder sister!"
Jin Xi said, "Forget it, since you don’t wish to, we are indeed without fate. Just don’t overthink it!"
Zhao Yu’Er said, "Elder sister, I’m sorry!"
Jin Xi said, "Can you understand the Water Spirit Scripture? Is there anything unclear?"
Zhao Yu’Er said, "Elder sister, why does this meridian have to go this way, and why do the acupoints transform so? Why must it be like this..."
Jin Xi responded silently.
But the relationship was much more indifferent.
...
Three days later, Lu Xuanji departed.
Before leaving, he left a storage bag for his disciple, containing some spirit medicines, spirit pills, and some tokens for protection, various items combined, but still, it was only three hundred thousand spirit stones.
Daring not to give too much, as the saying goes, a person’s wealth can lead to their ruin.
Often, giving too much can foster laziness in some people.
"Husband, let’s go!" Jin Xi said, "I originally planned to bring Zhao Yu’Er along as husband’s concubine, but it’s a pity she’s hesitant!"
"Wrong, she’s not hesitant, but rather waiting for a better offer!" Lu Xuanji laughed, "Do you really think every woman who meets you will unconditionally fall in love with your husband? It’s just wishful thinking. Many times, when female cultivators see me, the first thing they consider is how much money I have in my pocket, the second is they see my immense potential, and only the third is they see how young and handsome I am!"
In the world, is there really such a thing as love at first sight? It’s more about love at first sight of money.
In the past life, wealthy men would always seem charming; but in this life, having cultivation and being a cultivator with spirit stones also makes one attractive.
Ning Xue, Hong Fu, and others, willing to follow him, saw him as having astounding cultivation, vast future potential, and being extremely young.
Fang Liuli directly recognized him as her master simply because she saw the potential in abundant spirit stones, and was moved by seeing a promising future.
Even Su Haitang, this Refining Void Great Power, asked, "Fellow Daoist, are you open to marriage?"
Wasn’t this because they saw his immense potential and deemed him eligible to be a Dao Companion? If not, it would be a life-saving grace to repay in the next life.
Jin Xi frowned and said, "Waiting for the best offer, so what is she appraising?"
Lu Xuanji laughed, shook his head, and said, "Regarding cultivation, Xi’Er, you are very strong; but in terms of understanding the intricacies of human interactions, and grasping people’s hearts, you fall short. Zhao Yu’Er can’t grasp our depth, thus she’s bidding her time for a better offer, but Xi’Er, you are too lacking in patience!"
Jin Xi thought carefully, recalling the scene of their conversation, and suddenly understood, involuntarily saying, "What a pity!"
"Yes, what a pity!"
Lu Xuanji said, "Our method of thinking as cultivators is ultimately different from mortals! When mortals talk, they often probe each other, gradually progressing before revealing themselves. But cultivators are different; when encountering matters, they are direct and straightforward, if it works, it works, if not, it doesn’t, there will be probing, but not much hesitation in spending time."
"Cultivators have limited time, most of it is spent on cultivation, and there’s no time to play the subtle game. Compared to mortals, in terms of intelligence, in human affairs, cultivators are clearly lacking. It’s not that cultivators lack intelligence, but cultivators are reluctant to use intelligence to solve problems. Especially with low emotional intelligence, giving the impression of being naive; hence Zhao Yu’Er increased her probing! She just didn’t expect that you stopped playing!"
Jin Xi sighed and said, "It’s frustrating, I treated her as a younger sister, but she keeps probing, lacking sincerity!"
Lu Xuanji said, "It’s not the same. She’s a widow, a mortal woman, and if she weren’t a bit shrewd, she would have been taken advantage of long ago. Living in the mortal world, she needs to protect herself. Can you expect her to be utterly transparent and frank with neighbors she’s only known for a few years?"
Jin Xi frowned and said, "Mortals really have so many schemes!"
Lu Xuanji looked at Jin Xi and said, "Cultivators should not have too many schemes; if there are too many, the mental realm becomes impure, and cultivation becomes difficult to improve; but mortals must have many schemes, it’s an imperative for survival."
He had seen many girls, from Ye Feixue, Ye Wanyi, to Ye Linglong, Jin Xi, and even Su Haitang with the strongest cultivation, all had a naive side.
But just because they are naive, does one dare to bully them and take advantage of them?
Not at all!
In the previous life, women’s empowerment seemed strong, but with a lack of economic independence, still relying on men, their so-called resistance was weak.
But these female cultivators, practicing Qi cultivation and cultivating immortality, with strong cultivation, are as capable as men, and who wouldn’t respect them, who wouldn’t fear them, and who would dare to plot against and oppress them.
Their sharp treasure swords are enough to make many conspiracies retreat.
