Longevity Gu Dao: Start From Refining Infatuation Gu

Chapter 313: Jade Heart Sutra, Body of Water and Marsh

"Sister Xia."

Upon seeing Xia Shuiyang's arrival, many Nascent Soul female cultivators greeted her respectfully.

After all, everyone knew that she was the direct disciple of the sect master of the Endless Pleasure Sect, and she possessed the Heaven Spirit Root. She had great potential to become a Soul Formation cultivator and the next sect master of the Endless Pleasure Sect.

It could be said that her position and power were unparalleled.

Even though they were all Nascent Soul elders of the Endless Pleasure Sect, they couldn't compare to her.

It was like comparing a chicken to a phoenix.

"I want this man. Sisters, do you have any objections?"

"I hope you don't misunderstand me as being domineering."

"After all, this man has greatly helped me in my cultivation."

"After obtaining this man, I have the opportunity to advance to the Nascent Soul Late Stage."

"If you sisters can support me, I would be extremely grateful."

Xia Shuiyang smiled faintly and looked at the many female cultivators of the Endless Pleasure Sect with a friendly and accommodating attitude.

However, the female cultivators present were well aware of this woman's ruthlessness.

She was also very petty and liked to make things difficult for others.

Many cultivators who had offended her had silently disappeared from this world.

"Of course, we have no objections."

"That's right, it is an honor for this man to be chosen by Sister Xia."

"You're right, if we can provide assistance to Sister Xia's path, we will naturally do our best."

"Since it's a man that Sister Xia has taken a liking to, we will definitely offer our full support. If Sister Xia needs any help, we are here to assist."

The hearts of many Nascent Soul female cultivators were bleeding, and they gritted their teeth in anger.

Faced with Xia Shuiyang's coercion, even if they were unwilling, they could only lower themselves.

Because once they offended this petty woman, they would probably not be able to survive in the Endless Pleasure Sect.

Even if they could survive, their lives would be extremely difficult.

"Hehe, since that's the case, thank you all for your support."

"In the future, I will definitely repay you."

Xia Shuiyang smiled lightly and looked at the obedient Endless Pleasure Sect sisters, feeling very satisfied.

She waved her sleeve, swaying her graceful figure, and left like this.

Leaving behind a group of Nascent Soul female cultivators who were itching with hatred.

"This woman is becoming more and more excessive. She relies on being the sect master's direct disciple to do as she pleases in the Endless Pleasure Sect, suppressing her fellow disciples without any scruples."

"Sigh, there's nothing we can do about it. This woman's talent is truly outstanding. Not only is she a Heaven Spirit Root cultivator, but she also possesses the special body constitution of the Water and Marsh. She has gained the sect master's favor, has the potential for Soul Formation, and has the support of many elders. We can't compete with her."

"But isn't this woman cultivating the Jade Heart Sutra, the core technique of our Endless Pleasure Sect? This technique requires maintaining the Primordial Yin energy within oneself and strictly prohibits contact with men. Otherwise, all previous progress will be lost. How could she come and compete with us for men? It's truly unbelievable."

"But you don't understand. Our Endless Pleasure Sect also has a method called 'Qi Absorption,' which allows us to remotely steal the essence and pure Yang energy from men without compromising our own pure Yin body. It seems that this woman wants to treat the other party as a cauldron and constantly steal their pure Yang energy to aid her cultivation."

"It is said that although the Jade Heart Sutra is extremely powerful, it has a major flaw. It requires the balance of pure Yang energy. The higher one's cultivation, the more pure Yang energy is needed. Otherwise, the imbalance of Yin and Yang can easily lead to demonic possession. I was also cultivating the Jade Heart Sutra, but unfortunately, I couldn't resist the erosion of pure Yin energy and ended up on the path of Yin and Yang, cutting off the possibility of becoming the next sect master."

"So this woman is extremely cunning and ruthless. She can forcefully suppress her body's instincts and cultivate this technique to the mid-stage of Nascent Soul. It's truly terrifying."

"But it's not that simple to obtain that man. He looks like an inexperienced fellow. Maybe he's still practicing childish techniques. Otherwise, at his age, his pure Yang energy wouldn't be intact."

"Well, that depends on the woman's methods. If she fails, then it will be interesting."

Many Nascent Soul female cultivators of the Endless Pleasure Sect discussed among themselves.

Although they were filled with resentment, envy, and jealousy towards Xia Shuiyang, they also knew that this woman had extraordinary talent and ruthless methods. They were no match for her.

So they could only give up, but they regretted missing this opportunity.

Each of them felt helpless and frustrated.

...

At this moment, Zhou Sui followed the guidance of the Item Seeking Gu and arrived in front of a building with the words "Treasure Pavilion" written on it.

"So, Senior, you wanted to come to the Treasure Pavilion?"

"It seems that Senior is also somewhat familiar with our Hundred Flowers City. This place is the largest treasure trove in our city."

"There are all kinds of treasures inside."

"Nothing you can't think of, but nothing you can't buy."

The Endless Pleasure Sect female cultivator, Miaomiao, suddenly brightened her eyes. She knew that this man in front of her was a big customer who took the initiative to come to the Treasure Pavilion to purchase treasures.

Each item inside was valuable, and even buying one casually would be enough to cover her commission for several months.

It was not in vain for her, a Gold Core female cultivator, to take the initiative to introduce him.

"The Treasure Pavilion?"

Hearing this, Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes. No wonder the Item Seeking Gu guided him here. Obviously, the treasure he wanted was hidden in the Treasure Pavilion.

A place like this must have hidden a large number of treasures, with everything one could imagine.

Whoosh!

At this moment, it seemed that the Treasure Pavilion had received advance notice. A stunning woman walked out, causing the heavens and earth to lose their color and the flowers to dim.

She was dressed in a white gown, revealing her exquisite figure, which was alluring and captivating.

No man could take his eyes off her.

"Elder Xia."

Seeing the appearance of this woman, Miaomiao was suddenly startled. She instantly recognized that the person in front of her was none other than Xia Shuiyang, the senior sister of the Endless Pleasure Sect, a mid-stage Nascent Soul elder with high status and authority.

She never expected that such a respected elder would personally receive this male cultivator.

Clearly, this man in front of her is even more eye-catching than she imagined.

"So it's Miao Miao."

"You've really worked hard."

"I'll take care of this guest from now on, you can go down first."

Xia Shuiyang smiled slightly.

"Yes, Elder Xia."

Hearing this, the female cultivator Miao Miao also knew that this man in front of her was no longer someone she could touch. He was actually noticed by the famous Elder Xia, so he must have something extraordinary about him.

It should be noted that even if a direct disciple of the Soul Formation sect came to visit, Elder Xia would not even bother.

But now, he took the initiative to receive him, which is really unusual.

But she didn't linger too much, agreed, and quickly left.

"I don't know who Fellow Daoist is?"

Zhou Sui looked at this stunning woman who suddenly appeared, and had some guesses in his heart. To make the Gold Core female cultivator Miao Miao so respectful, this person must be an important figure in the Endless Pleasure Sect.

Moreover, this woman's cultivation has reached the mid-stage of Nascent Soul.

But what's even stranger is that even though she is an Endless Pleasure Sect cultivator, she still possesses pure Yin power, which is truly unimaginable.

It's like emerging from the mud but not being stained by it.

Of course, there is probably no steadfast female cultivator in the demonic sect.

The reason for this situation is most likely closely related to the cultivation technique he practices.

Compared to the path of longevity, the way of men and women is simply not worth mentioning.

"I am Xia Shuiyang, an elder of the Endless Pleasure Sect."

"I am also the lord of Baihua City."

Xia Shuiyang giggled, looking at Zhou Sui with a charming expression.

Her beautiful eyes looked at Zhou Sui, becoming brighter and brighter.

Previously, she only heard from her subordinates that a Nascent Soul cultivator with a Pure Yang Body had come to Baihua City, so she hurriedly came here, wanting to take the initiative.

To be honest, although people with a Pure Yang Body are rare, they do exist.

In fact, cultivators with a Pure Yang Body who can cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage are truly few and far between.

It's not just a small number, it's truly a once-in-a-millennium occurrence.

After all, cultivators with a Pure Yang Body like this will definitely be targeted by various demonesses and witches on their cultivation path.

Maintaining a pure Yang body is even more difficult than achieving immortality.

So men like this are almost extinct, and she has hardly heard of them.

And it seems that this man's body is not just a Pure Yang Body, there is also a terrifying power of blood and qi within him. Even ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators do not have such vigorous blood and qi.

There is no doubt that this man's physical quality is incredibly strong, definitely a top-grade cauldron.

If she were to seize the pure yang qi from this man, her cultivation would immediately advance to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, laying the foundation for her Soul Formation. This is much better than any Rank Four pill or thousand-year spiritual medicine, by countless times.

So, for this kind of man, she is absolutely determined to obtain him, she cannot let him escape.

What's more, she can feel a strange charm emanating from this man's body. Clearly, his face is plain and ordinary, but he possesses such infinite charm, as if he were a naturally beautiful man.

This feeling is incredibly strange, yet so real.

She doesn't know why she has this feeling, but she always feels that such an ordinary face is extremely incompatible with this man.

Wait, could it be that this man has changed his appearance? It's not his original appearance?

Thinking of this, Xia Shuiyang's beautiful eyes flickered, considering this possibility.

But for cultivators, this is a common occurrence. Many cultivators who enter the Hundred Flowers City will change their appearance, in order to conceal their true identity from others.

There are even Nascent Soul elders from prestigious sects who appear to be upright gentlemen on the surface, but are actually involved in illicit activities.

In order to avoid tarnishing their reputation while still seeking pleasure, they naturally change into the appearance of others.

The Endless Pleasure Sect is well aware of such matters.

After all, these cultivators are guests who bring money to the Endless Pleasure Sect, so naturally they cannot expose their guests.

"To think that the City Lord of Hundred Flowers City personally came out to receive us, it is truly surprising."

Zhou Sui was also secretly amazed.

In fact, under the influence of the Rank Five Infatuation Gu, his body has been constantly tempered and his physical quality has changed. He can vaguely sense a woman's level of fondness or dislike towards him.

It is obvious that the Nascent Soul female cultivator Xia Shuiyang from the Endless Pleasure Sect has a considerable level of fondness towards him.

If we were to calculate it on a scale of one hundred, it would be at least sixty.

Normally, a stranger's level of fondness exceeding thirty is already quite good.

So this woman has fallen in love with him at first sight.

To be honest, he doesn't know why this woman has taken a liking to him. Could it be that she is lusting after his body? Even though he has been very low-key, even disguising himself as an ordinary man.

Unfortunately, his charm is still too great, even if his appearance is plain and ordinary, it cannot conceal the charm emanating from his body.

"Oh, it's nothing. It is an honor for me to receive such an outstanding man like Fellow Daoist Zhou."

"But Fellow Daoist Zhou must already have a partner, right?"

Xia Shuiyang giggled and asked tentatively.

"No, I don't have any companions in the Eastern Desolate Continent. We cultivators are dedicated to our practice."

"Of course, I wouldn't indulge in such matters of romance."

"Companions are nothing but burdens, they only hinder my cultivation."

Zhou Sui said firmly, indicating that he is still single and alone.

And he wasn't lying.

After all, he really didn't have any companions in the Eastern Desolate Continent; they were all in the Canglan Sea Region.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou is truly a devoted cultivator. I admire you."

"I haven't seen a man like you in a long time."

Upon hearing this, Xia Shuiyang's eyes shimmered, revealing a hint of joy.

She believed her guess was correct.

A pure-hearted man like him, a cultivator dedicated to his practice, must be a virgin.

Perhaps he even practices the art of the "Childlike Innocence Technique," which explains his abundant vitality and pure yang energy.

It can be said that such a man is rarer than a true dragon, and they must have become extinct.

Thinking this, she lightly waved her hand, seemingly soundlessly, and an invisible mark instantly attached itself to Zhou Sui.

This is the Peach Blossom Mark from the Endless Pleasure Sect.

Once this mark is placed, even if he were to escape to the ends of the earth, she would be able to find him.

Furthermore, she could use this mark to make him fall into a state of confusion and infatuation, irresistibly falling in love with her.

This is a unique technique possessed by female cultivators of the Endless Pleasure Sect.

"She actually used a spell on me?"

"It seems this female cultivator from the Endless Pleasure Sect has ulterior motives. Does she want to capture me as a cauldron?"

"I didn't expect a female cultivator to dare to make a move on me. She must have the courage of a bear and the heart of a leopard."

"Love at first sight is indeed too fake."

"It's better to follow one's interests, and following one's desires is more genuine."

"Tsk tsk, this female cultivator from the Endless Pleasure Sect is truly stunning, and she possesses pure yin energy."

"It would be better to capture her and help my true body break through to the mid-Nascent Soul stage."

"With such a Nascent Soul female cultivator, I could save decades or even hundreds of years of arduous cultivation."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes, contemplating the possibility of this matter.

He didn't mind being targeted by the other party's spell; after all, he was just a clone.

Even if he were affected by any spell, once the clone died, everything would be over.

No spell could affect his true body.

So naturally, he had no fear and allowed the other party to use various means, so as not to alert the enemy.

Swoosh!

With this in mind, Zhou Sui moved his thoughts and immediately placed the Infatuation Gu on the Endless Pleasure Sect female cultivator in front of him, silently and without a trace.

The Infatuation Gu had advanced to the Rank Five realm, making its power even more immense.

Even a Soul Formation female cultivator would be unable to resist it.

Not to mention a female cultivator in the Nascent Soul realm.

"By the way, I wonder what Fellow Daoist Zhou wants to buy at my Wanbao Tower?"

At this moment, Xia Shuiyang led Zhou Sui into the Wanbao Tower and brought him to a private room, surrounded by restrictive formations to prevent other cultivators from coveting their treasures.

"Well, I want to buy the Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth. Does Wanbao Tower have any?"

Zhou Sui spoke directly.

After all, for a Nascent Soul cultivator, buying the Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth was not a big deal; it was a normal demand.

It wouldn't attract the attention of other cultivators.

"Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth?"

"It seems Fellow Daoist Zhou is well-informed. I just acquired some Spiritual Roots of Heaven and Earth at Wanbao Tower recently."

"However, the Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth is quite valuable. If you don't offer a corresponding price, it will be difficult to obtain."

Xia Shuiyang originally wanted to refuse Zhou Sui.

After all, Wanbao Tower had planned to auction off the Spiritual Roots of Heaven and Earth they had acquired as items for the auction.

But when she saw Zhou Sui's gaze, her heart softened, feeling unable to refuse the request of the man in front of her.

It was just the Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth.

If there was enough money, it could be sold.

"Don't worry, money is not a problem."

"But I want to inspect the goods and see if they are the Spiritual Roots of Heaven and Earth I desire."

Zhou Sui smiled faintly.

Indeed, it was better to have an insider. Having connections in high places made things easier. Otherwise, as an outsider, it wouldn't be so easy to acquire the corresponding treasures.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou is indeed straightforward."

Xia Shuiyang clapped her hands and immediately instructed her subordinates to bring the Spiritual Roots of Heaven and Earth from Wanbao Tower.

In no time, several beautiful maidservants arrived, holding green boxes emitting a strong wood elemental aura. Clearly, they were the Spiritual Roots of Heaven and Earth, priceless treasures.

"Hmm?!"

Zhou Sui moved his thoughts and immediately activated his ability to discern objects, beginning to appraise these items.

Indeed, these Spiritual Roots of Heaven and Earth were extraordinary; at the very least, they were all Rank Three, and some even reached Rank Four.

However, that's all there is to it.

As for the Rank Five Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth, it is impossible to sell.

His gaze fell on the box on the far right, which was exactly the Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth he had been searching for a long time.

Suddenly, a piece of information entered his consciousness.

[Name: Evergreen Vine, Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth.]

[Description: This is a vine from the immortal realm, with the ability to grow infinitely and enhance its own strength. However, its growth time is extremely long and often encounters various calamities, making it easy to perish.

But its vitality is extremely tenacious. Even if it encounters calamities, it will give birth to a large number of seeds, scattered everywhere, and then find suitable places to grow again, forming new evergreen vines.]

There is no doubt that this is the Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth that Zhou Sui has been looking for as a suitable Dao companion.

He doesn't care about the attacking power of the so-called Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth, as long as it can grow infinitely, it is enough.

With his protection, his Dao companion will not encounter any threats.

"I want this box of Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth."

Zhou Sui said straightforwardly, pointing to the dark green box on the far right.

"Oh, you want the Evergreen Vine?!"

"Although it is indeed a good Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth, it has a Rank Four level."

"But the growth time is too long, it takes at least ten thousand years to grow to the Rank Four realm."

"And it will encounter various calamities along the way, making it easy to perish."

"Are you sure you want to get this Rank Four Evergreen Vine seed?"

Xia Shuiyang looked at Zhou Sui with some hesitation.

Originally, she was not the kind of woman who meddled in other people's business. If a customer wants something, she would just sell it to them.

But for some reason, she had a certain degree of goodwill towards this man and naturally didn't want to see him suffer.

"Yes, I'm sure."

"You name the price."

Zhou Sui nodded and said without hesitation.

Obviously, the cultivators in the cultivation world have not realized the preciousness of the Evergreen Vine. This is a plant from the immortal realm.

But this is also normal.

After all, the Evergreen Vine did not grow in a suitable environment, so it cannot grow perfectly.

Naturally, other cultivators will not notice its special features.

Many cultivators treat the Evergreen Vine as a material for alchemy.

And they don't pay too much attention to it.

"You also know that this is a Rank Four spiritual plant."

"Although its uses are not many, its value lies here."

"And at the Nascent Soul stage, spirit stones are no longer that important, unless you are willing to take out Supreme Grade spirit stones."

"So our Wanbao Tower only accepts barter."

"If you can bring out something that makes Wanbao Tower tempted, we can sell you this Rank Four Evergreen Vine."

Xia Shuiyang said in a deep voice.

"I see, that makes sense."

"There are a total of nine Evergreen Vine seeds inside, and I won't take advantage of you."

"I have a bottle of Rank Four pill, the Earth Yuan Pill, which can be exchanged with you."

Zhou Sui took out a bottle of Rank Four treasure pill from his body.

For him, he had too many Rank Four treasure pills on him. He didn't even know how many he had refined in his daily practice.

Although he was a clone, he also carried a lot of treasures this time, with the purpose of exchanging suitable treasures with the cultivators here.

"Rank Four pill, Earth Yuan Pill?"

"This is a pill that has great benefits for cultivators at the early stage of Nascent Soul."

"It even has a certain probability of helping Nascent Soul cultivators break through to the mid-stage."

"You are actually willing to sell the Earth Yuan Pill?"

Seeing this scene, Xia Shuiyang couldn't help but widen her beautiful eyes. She didn't expect that this man in front of her could actually bring out a Rank Four treasure pill, which was a hot commodity.

If it were to be auctioned, it would drive Nascent Soul old monsters crazy.

Every bottle of Rank Four pill was a valuable item.

As long as it was brought out, it would be quickly bought.

Even in the Eastern Desolate Continent, Rank Four treasure pills were still rare treasures that ordinary alchemists couldn't refine. They were basically priceless.

It was difficult to buy even with money.

If they could exchange such a bottle of Rank Four treasure pill for the mediocre Rank Four Evergreen Vine, any cultivator would agree without hesitation.

"Yes, I really like this Evergreen Vine."

"If you are willing, let's make the exchange."

Zhou Sui nodded. For him, the Rank Four treasure pill was nothing.

This kind of Evergreen Vine was the truly precious treasure, with immeasurable value.

"Haha, since that's the case, let's make the exchange."

"Trading with Fellow Daoist is indeed refreshing."

Xia Shuiyang immediately agreed.

After all, this was obviously a profitable business. Only a fool would refuse it.
