Otherworldly-Cultivator

"Did you guys have any trouble getting here?" Feng Xian'er asked Xuanyuan Wan'er and Xuanyuan Feng'er, who had just arrived at their camping area.

"Not really." Xuanyuan Wan'er replied by shaking her head before sitting beside Feng Xian'er, and she immediately carried Chen Long, who looked excited to see her, before teasing him. "Fortunately, you gave your bloodline to me in the past, and I used it to scare away those powerful beasts, so none of them dared to approach us. Even so, we still fought several beasts that were equal to our cultivation, and we were able to pass through the footpaths easily because we could feel your aura."

"Sister Xian'er, I brought quite a lot of beast meat, especially since we'll be here for a few days and there are quite a lot of us." Xuanyuan Feng'er said as she took out a pile of dead small beasts, such as rabbit beasts and several other types. After that, she took them to another area, and she immediately proceeded to clean them up.

Feng Xian'er felt amused seeing that, especially since Lin Qingzhu and the others had prepared so many provisions for all of them. Even so, she could understand Xuanyuan Feng'er's intentions because she and her mother had faced such a harsh and stressful life in the past, especially since wars were constantly occurring on earth at that time. "Why doesn't Xuanyuan Lingyan join you two?"

"No." Xuanyuan Wan'er then explained it to Feng Xian'er. "Lingyan went with her cousin, and they joined the disciples of the Mystic Moon Sect, who also intended to train in this forest. Since there are many of us and our training is also different from theirs, I immediately brought Feng'er here."

"I see." Feng Xian'er nodded in understanding before spreading her senses to other areas; however, several formations within the forest obstructed her senses, so she abandoned her intention.

"Anyway, where's Brother Chen? Hasn't he finished his training yet?" Xuanyuan Wan'er inquired as she gently rubbed Chen Long, who continued to giggle in her arms.

"Are you starting to have feelings for him now?" However, Xuanyuan Wan'er responded to Feng Xian'er's question with a shake of her head, especially since she had never thought of having such a relationship with Chen Li, causing her to sigh heavily in her heart. "Hubby finished his training a long time ago, but he then went with Victoria and the Long Sisters to help them with their training."

"I see." Xuanyuan Wang'er then returned Chen Long to her mother before standing up. "In that case, Sister Xian'er, I will go to another area to train, or Lingyan will catch up with my swordsmanship."

As she watched Xuanyuan Wan'er leave, Feng Xian'er shook her head and muttered to herself. "Since the past, Wan'er's competitive spirit has always been strong, and she has always strived hard not to lose to anyone. Moreover, she and Xuanyuan Lingyan come from the same Xuanyuan Clan, and their sword techniques are also the same, so it is natural that she does not want to be surpassed by her."

After they had trained against the beasts for quite a long time, Chen Li asked them to stop and rest, especially since it was already late, their vision was limited, and some of them looked exhausted.

Afterwards, Chen Li asked the spirits to bring them back to their camp, and some of them immediately fell to the ground, such as Guo Qing and Li Xue. Even Shou Xiang, Huo Qingya, and Huo Rui, who were quite experienced cultivators, felt overwhelmed by training under the guidance of the spirit woman, especially since they were strict when training them.

Chen Li immediately gave them Qi recovery pills and rejuvenating pills, which they promptly swallowed. Shou Xiang, Huo Qingya, and Huo Rui then meditated to regulate their breathing. As for Li Xue, she was the weakest among them, and she quickly fell asleep after swallowing them.

"Hah... Hah..." Guo Qing gasped heavily on the ground. "Brother, you guys are absolutely terrifying; if I continue to train as rigorously as you guys, I will certainly die."

Chen Li shook his head at that. "You two were too busy on earth before, and since you haven't undergone our rigorous training in the past few months, your training lags behind ours. That's why you have to start getting used to your new life, especially since the situation in this realm isn't as good or safe as on earth, and many cultivators can kill you easily. Otherwise, you won't be able to defend yourself if those people target you. On top of that, you still need to protect Xue and Luan'er, so you must work hard to become stronger.

Guo Qing was tongue-tied after hearing that, especially since his mindset was different from Chen Li's and he was too used to living as an ordinary human. That's why he had difficulty adapting to the life of a cultivator and such harsh training, so he enjoyed his life on earth more. He suddenly remembered about the incident that almost killed him several months ago, and he immediately spoke to him. "You're right, brother. Now that I'm a husband and father, I have to change and increase my strength. Otherwise, I won't be able to protect my wife and daughter, so I want you to train me harder starting tomorrow."

"You said it yourself, so you should always remember your own words." Chen Li then took out several ironweights and placed them beside Guo Qing. "Back then, I had Yang Hao train using them, and he had already fully adapted to their weight, so this time it's your turn to use them. For the time being, you don't need to fight those beasts, and you should familiarize yourself with their weight first."

"How much does each of them weigh?"

"Not much; each of them weighs a hundred pounds." Guo Qing abruptly turned to Yang Hao, making him laugh out loud. "Hahaha! Back then, I was in shock just like you, and I also had difficulty moving when I used them, especially since I had never practiced before. However, I never gave up because I wanted to change, and you can see the results for yourself now. If it were not for those few months of hard training, I would still be very fat now, and Yan'er probably wouldn't be willing to be my wife."

Guo Qing released a heavy sigh and nodded to Yang Hao. "All right, I don't want to fall behind the two of you, so I will also start training using these iron weights tomorrow. However, I probably won't be able to hold on for too long, and I might faint from exhaustion."

"Back then, I trained using one of them first, and I added more weight after I adapted perfectly to it, so you can do as I did before." Yang Hao then stood up from his seat. "I'll help my wife and the others first."

"I'll send you to your tent, so you and Xue can rest first." Chen Li then used his aura to lift Guo Qing and Li Xue to one of the empty tents, after which he asked Xiao Shijian a question. "What about the disciples of that sect?"

"They're not bad, but their abilities are only mediocre when compared to the people in your circle, so they need harder training." Chen Li nodded in understanding, and Xiao Shijian told him something else. "Xuanyuan Liuli's swordsmanship ability is good, but she lags far behind her cousin because her talent is inferior to hers. As for Xuanyuan Lingyan, her swordsmanship is unquestionable, and she will definitely be able to reach Xuanyuan Lanyin's level in the future. However, he has to go to higher realms to be able to do it, especially since this realm is too weak for him."

Chen Li then asked Sun Xing'er and the other five spirit women about their practice, and they told him everything based on their observations, which made him feel quite satisfied with their progress. However, he felt that it was still not enough, so he asked Xiao Jianyi and the others to train them even harder; only then could they be independent and protect themselves."

"What are your plans next, brother?" Sun Xing'er asked him.

Chen Li smiled faintly and looked at the area far to their right, making Sun Xing'er and the spirit women raise their eyebrows as they had already guessed his crazy idea, and his answer confirmed their guess. "I plan to enter that ancient cemetery, especially since the strongest beasts in this forest gather there, so I want to fight against them."

"Do you really want to go there?" Chen Li nodded to Xiao Shijian. "Since you insist on that, I will try to crack those formations because they are quite complicated, and I need a lot of time to do it."

Xiao Shijian immediately disappeared from their sight and went to the ancient cemetery, and Xiao Kong'er also followed her. Meanwhile, Xiao Hei, Xiao Huoli, and Xiao Jianyi spread out to several areas to protect them, especially after they sensed something unusual in the forest, and they couldn't let anything bad happen to them.

Chen Li himself sat by the campfire while chatting with his mother and the others, and he conveyed several plans that he had prepared especially for them.
