Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 230: Secret Meeting of the Holy Maiden, Inspection by the Sect Master (12)

In the peripheral area of the Heaven and Earth Sect, inside a certain public Cave Mansion.

Several core elders sat around a tea table carved from Purple Cloud Wood, discussing the Mysterious Yellow Sect stationed outside with a serious expression.

Most of the time, the topic revolved around the former Sect Master of the Mysterious Yellow Sect, Cao Dian.

Because Cao Dian was a powerful Soul Formation Stage cultivator who could determine the outcome of the two sects' battle.

If they couldn't deal with Cao Dian well, the Heaven and Earth Sect would not have the confidence to engage in a full-scale war with the Mysterious Yellow Sect.

"Elder, you have been stuck at the peak of the Nascent Soul Ninth Layer for hundreds of years. Haven't you found an opportunity to break through to the Soul Formation Stage?" The second elder, whose hair was thinning on top, asked the elder with an old and dignified face.

He and the elder joined the Heaven and Earth Sect at the same time and even worshipped the same master. They had been together for thousands of years and knew each other inside out, so they didn't have many reservations when talking.

The elder shook his head and sighed, "Sigh, although there is only a thin line separating the Nascent Soul Ninth Layer from the Soul Formation Stage, it is an insurmountable gap for countless cultivators at the peak of the Nascent Soul Ninth Layer."

After saying that, he couldn't help but feel resentful, "I don't know where Cao Dian got that formation from, allowing him to break through to the Soul Formation Stage before me."

"Hmph, Cao Dian sacrificed the spiritual energy density of the entire Great Thousand Realm to achieve his own breakthrough. Such despicable means will be condemned by the heavens sooner or later!" The third elder said indignantly.

The elder could only smile bitterly in response.

Despicable means?

Condemned by the heavens?

He thought that if he could exchange it for the Soul Formation realm, he would definitely make the same choice as Cao Dian, even if it meant being more despicable and condemned by others.

While he was thinking about this, the second elder suddenly suggested, "Elder, you have consolidated the peak of the Nascent Soul Ninth Layer for hundreds of years. Even if your cultivation hasn't broken through to the first level of the Soul Formation Stage, I think your strength is not much different. You have nothing to fear from Cao Dian."

"I think maybe the few of us can go out together and test Cao Dian's strength, to see how big the gap is."

"If it's not that big, we can completely rely on the advantage of having more Nascent Soul cultivators in the Heaven and Earth Sect to defeat Cao Dian by outnumbering him, and directly defeat the entire Mysterious Yellow Sect in one fell swoop."

This idea was bold and carried great risks.

After hearing the second elder's words, the elder and the third elder fell into contemplation.

At this moment, a graceful figure appeared outside the Cave Mansion.

The elder looked up and said calmly, "Qingyue, why are you here?"

The other two elders also looked over.

"Elder, I have been cursed!" Xiao Qingyue said astonishingly as soon as she arrived, causing the three elders' expressions to change slightly.

The elder's face became serious as he said, "Qingyue, what exactly happened? Tell us in detail."

"I'm not sure either. The only thing I can confirm now is that I have been cursed with the Yin Sect's treasure, just like the ninth elder." Xiao Qingyue said with a worried expression.

The three elders also felt worried.

Since the other party could curse the ninth elder to the point of losing control, they could naturally curse them to the same fate.

"No, we must deal with the internal threat first. We must find out who this person hiding in the sect is!" The elder's gaze became firm.

...

In the Cave Mansion area of the steward, inside the "Stability" Cave Mansion.

[You have successfully cursed Xiao Qingyue, causing her to dream of her time as an ordinary woman and experience menstruation.]

"Wow, this Book of Curses is truly incredible. It can even curse someone to experience menstruation. It's so strange!" Chen An sat cross-legged on the bed, looking at the prompt message that popped up in front of him, feeling a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

It felt like a small person achieving success.

Extremely dark.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The door suddenly slammed hard, followed by the voice of his silly second daughter, "Daddy, I want to hear a story!"

"Creak..."

Chen An opened the door from a distance and let his silly second daughter in.

Afterwards, he said to her, "Go and call your sisters over. I'll tell you three sisters a story."

"Okay!"

Chen Yike responded with a nod.

After speaking, she turned around and went to find Chen Yuejian and Chen Jiuli.

Chen An had all three daughters sit on the bed and patiently told them a story about a culinary adventure.

...

In the blink of an eye.

Ten days later.

In the past ten days, Chen An had improved his proficiency in the teleportation array to the mastery level. As a result, the teleportation distance had increased to ten li, and the amount of spiritual power consumed each time had been reduced by more than half.

However, these were not the main points.

The main point was that he had raised the level of father-daughter affection between him and Chen Jiuli to 3 stars, and he had received an extremely mysterious gift box.

This gift box was not only mysterious but also a bit peculiar.

Because it couldn't be opened immediately after being obtained, it had to be left for more than three days before it could be opened.

And today, it had been more than three days since it was placed.

The gift box could be opened now.

Chen An had a thought and took out the mysterious gift box from his storage ring.

The box was only the size of a palm, and it looked ordinary on the outside, giving the feeling that it couldn't contain anything good.

However, if it was a product of the system, it must be a high-quality item.

This mysterious gift box was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Most likely, it contained a world within.

"I wonder what it will open to. Hopefully, it will be a pleasant surprise."

With this thought in mind, Chen An opened the gift box with an expectant expression.

Then, two prompt messages popped up in front of him.

[You opened the mysterious gift box with anticipation and obtained a rare Spiritual Treasure, the "Yin-Yang Sword".]

[Yin-Yang Sword: Infuse with qi and blood, the sword cuts the physical body; infuse with Entering Spirit power, the sword cuts the soul. With this sword, you can easily kill troublesome yin creatures and, when facing living beings, you can ignore the physical obstacles and directly shatter their souls.]

[The Yin-Yang Sword has been automatically stored in the storage ring and can be taken out at will.]

"It's actually a Spiritual Treasure!"

"The Yin-Yang Sword... the name of this sword is quite impressive."

"Yin creatures?"

"What is that?"

"Is it a ghost?"

After quickly reading the prompt messages, Chen An felt somewhat puzzled but more excited.

Including the Book of Curses he already had, he now possessed two Spiritual Treasures.

Two Spiritual Treasures, what concept was that?

Let's put it this way, in ordinary spirit realms like the Mountain and Sea Domain or the Great Thousand Domain, at most, one Spiritual Treasure could be born in a region.

But at this moment, Chen An alone possessed two Spiritual Treasures, which was simply unheard of.

After calming down a bit, Chen An couldn't wait to take out the Yin-Yang Sword and carefully examine it in his hand.

The blade was silver.

The edge of the sword was sharp.

The hilt was black and white.

When he calmed down and felt it, he could clearly feel the sword was filled with a sinister aura, emitting a chilling intent.

"It truly is a good sword, but as for its specific power, I'll have to try it out to know."

Thinking this, Chen An put the Yin-Yang Sword back into the storage ring.

He informed his wives outside that he had something to take care of.

Then, he used the teleportation array to send himself to the area of the Hundred Beast Forest.

There were many monsters living in the Hundred Beast Forest, making it a good testing ground.

After a moment, Chen An arrived at the Hundred Beast Forest.

There, he saw a group of low-level monster chickens pecking the ground for food.

Without hesitation, he took out the Yin-Yang Sword, infused it with an appropriate amount of qi and blood, and closed his eyes as he approached them, striking with a few sword moves.

Because they were low-level monsters, the demonic chickens couldn't even react to Chen An's sudden attack and were directly killed with a single sword strike.

"Not bad, killing monsters is as easy as cutting vegetables, the process is smooth as water. This Yin-Yang Sword truly lives up to its reputation as a Spiritual Treasure," Chen An praised the Yin-Yang Sword.

Then, he quickly arrived at the lake on the other side of the Hundred Beasts Forest and found a group of Xuanling Turtles with hard shells.

The cultivation level of these Xuanling Turtles was not low, averaging at the Foundation Building level. Among them, the Turtle King had even reached the Gold Core stage.

"Wow-wow-wow!"

The Turtle King noticed Chen An and felt that he had invaded its territory. It immediately charged towards Chen An with a murderous intent, intending to devour him alive.

Just as the Turtle King was about to reach him, Chen An calmly used the Immobilization Technique, instantly immobilizing it in place.

Then, he raised the Yin-Yang Sword, which had just been infused with spiritual power, and struck it directly at the turtle's shell.

"Swish!"

The blade cut through the air and landed directly on the Turtle King's body.

There was no sound of any hard object colliding.

The blade smoothly passed through the Turtle King's body.

In the next moment, the Turtle King's soul shattered, leaving only an unconscious body lying on the ground, becoming a living dead turtle.

"Living" refers to the physical body still being alive.

"Dead" refers to the extinction of the soul.

"So this is Soul Severing?" Chen An looked at the Yin-Yang Sword in his hand, his eyes filled with awe.

The soul is the life of living beings.

Once it shatters...

That means eternal inability to reincarnate, complete death.

...

Half a month later.

In the Steward Cave Mansion area, inside the "Stable" Cave Mansion.

After dealing with Song Huaying and Wen Zhiyun, Chen An returned to his room to cultivate. Just as he had been cultivating for only an hour, the high-grade spirit stones in his storage ring were depleted.

"The spirit stones are used up, it's time to ask the Cheap Saintess for some," Chen An muttered to himself.

Then, with a thought, he took out Ning Xian'er's personal voice transmission talisman from his storage ring and sent her a message.

"Saintess, the moon is beautiful tonight. Would you like to come out and enjoy it with me?"

After waiting for a while, there was no reply.

Thinking that the other party might be busy at the moment, Chen An didn't bother to disturb her and instead used Earth Escape to go to the pill refining room and refine some pills to sell at night.

After refining pills for a little over an hour, the Saintess's voice transmission talisman in his storage ring vibrated.

Coincidentally, Chen An had just finished refining a batch of pills.

He skillfully extinguished the furnace fire and took out the Saintess's voice transmission talisman to transmit his voice.

"Steward Chen, my master was here just now, so I didn't dare to contact you. Now that my master has gone to the outer area, I can come out. Should I come to find you or do you want to come to find me?"

Ning Xian'er's voice came through the talisman, sounding very soft and sweet.

Chen An transmitted his voice to her, saying, "No need for either of us to find each other. Let's meet by the lake in the Hundred Beasts Forest."

"Okay, I'll come over now."

"By the way, have you finished eating the three Heavenly Countenance Pills I gave you last time?"

"I just finished eating them a few days ago."

"Then I'll bring two pills for you."

"Thank you, Steward Chen."

"No need to be so polite. It's just two Heavenly Countenance Pills. If it weren't for me being short on money recently and unable to buy materials for refining, I could make them for you every day."

Chen An said generously.

However, it was only a superficial display of generosity, but in reality, it was a crazy insinuation: Rich woman, I'm poor, give me money!

Ning Xian'er was not foolish and understood Chen An's implied meaning.

She pretended not to understand the insinuation and replied to Chen An, "It's okay, two pills are already a lot."

Then she turned around and went to the small treasury to take out ten thousand high-grade spirit stones and put them into a storage bag.

She planned to give Chen An a surprise later.

...

After about half an hour.

The two of them successfully met by the lake in the Hundred Beast Forest.

Chen An immediately took out a glass medicine bottle and handed it to Ning Xian'er with a gentle smile. "You take these two Heavenly Countenance Pills first. When I have more resources, I'll refine more for you."

Insinuation!

Insinuating like crazy!

Lady Saint!

I'm poor!

Give me some spirit stones!

Ning Xian'er understood, but mischievously pretended not to understand. She just accepted the glass medicine bottle that Chen An handed over and smiled, saying, "Chen An, you're really good to me. It's my fortune to know you."

"Oh, not at all."

Chen An smiled modestly on the surface, but he was anxious in his heart.

What's wrong with this Saint? She usually seems quite clever, why is she so clueless now that she can't even understand the hints?

Should I just say it directly?

Chen An hesitated.

Seeing his appearance, Ning Xian'er couldn't help but feel a sense of joy in her heart.

But she knew that too much of anything is not good. Feeling satisfied enough, she took out the storage bag filled with high-grade spirit stones and handed it to Chen An with a smile, saying, "Chen An, there are ten thousand high-grade spirit stones in this storage bag. You can use them."

"How can I accept this..."

Chen An said, but his hand honestly took the storage bag that Ning Xian'er handed over.

Ning Xian'er also smiled and said, "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. We're good friends. If you really feel embarrassed, you can just refine more Heavenly Countenance Pills for me to eat in the future."

"No problem, I'll refine one Heavenly Countenance Pill for you every ten days from now on."

Chen An readily agreed.

After putting away the storage bag filled with spirit stones, he sensibly took out a mattress and laid it on the ground, smiling lightly at Ning Xian'er and said, "Come, lie down here. As a return for lending me the spirit stones, I'll give you a massage."

"Then I'll trouble you, Chen An."

After saying that, Ning Xian'er gently lay down on the mattress, fully exposing her sexy and alluring back to Chen An, waiting for his hands to pamper her.

...

In the sky above the Heaven and Earth Sect.

Xiao Qingyue had just left the outer area and was flying towards the Cave Mansion of the Heaven and Earth Hall.

At this moment, her face was serious.

She had just had a long conversation with several core elders in the outer area and found that the internal troubles of the Heaven and Earth Sect were much more serious than expected. There were still many undercover agents in various halls who had not been exposed.

Even the family members of several core elders and some disciples in her Heaven and Earth Hall showed signs of being infiltrated by the Mysterious Yellow Sect.

These undercover agents were deeply hidden and rarely caused trouble.

But now, the Mysterious Yellow Sect was blocking the Heaven and Earth Sect from the outside, ready to go to war at any time. These long-hidden undercover agents had become time bombs, extremely dangerous.

"Annoying!"

Xiao Qingyue vented, feeling a lot of pressure.

When she was about to fly back to the Heaven and Earth Hall, she suddenly had the idea of inspecting the Heaven and Earth Sect.

Thinking that while taking a stroll and relaxing, she might have the good luck to expose one or two undercover agents who sneaked out at night.
