Seeking Immortality In The Cultivation World

With the opportunity to get rich, Lin Xiu was also full of enthusiasm.

But when he thought about the daily hard work and the pitiful amount of experience he still had, he felt discouraged.

First, his old waist seemed to be unable to bear it recently, and he was drinking medicine every day! Maybe the method and posture were not right, and the reliable learning materials in his memory were not reliable.

Second, Li Yingxue had gained some insights after obtaining the "Rising Moon on the Sea" technique. Currently, there seemed to be signs of a breakthrough to the Martial Master level. It wouldn't be good to delay his wife's advancement.

Although the martial arts technique left by Song Bailin had a high upper limit, the lower limit required was not low. Reaching the Martial Master realm was just the entry level.

"I can't just work hard all the time. I need to find a way to improve the quality of our married life!"

As usual, Lin Xiu stood on the stone path in front of his courtyard and looked at the sky for a while. Soon, four neighbors in the Qi Refining stage gathered and set off together.

When they arrived at their destination, everyone scattered. Some bought and sold goods, some formed teams with familiar Fellow Daoists to explore the monster-infested jungle, and some went to the steward's hall to receive tasks issued by the Purple Cloud Sect.

Lin Xiu arrived at Qian's shop, and the shopkeeper who received him had changed from a waiter to the shopkeeper. His surname was Qian.

"Oh, Fellow Daoist Lin has arrived. There have been signs of a rise in the sale of talismans these days. We've been waiting for you!"

Lin Xiu pretended to ponder for a moment and showed a apologetic expression on his face.

"Shopkeeper Qian, we've known each other for a long time. I can't afford to let you down. Without me, would your supply of goods be cut off?"

Then, he changed the subject.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you today. The talismans I made have all been bought by the neighbors. I came to buy materials."

After speaking, he took out ten middle-grade spirit stones.

"A thousand pieces. I'll send you all the talismans made from these materials!"

The shopkeeper Qian chuckled.

Although Lin Xiu didn't sell any talismans this time, the profit from a thousand pieces of materials was quite substantial. Calculating it, it seemed to be more than selling talismans.

Moreover, this person had only reached the middle-grade talisman master level less than two years ago, and his success rate was actually over thirty percent. He seemed to have the talent of a Great Emperor...

He already had the talent for talisman dao. Perhaps in a few years, he would become a high-grade talisman master. This was also his purpose in personally trading and building relationships.

The materials Lin Xiu purchased represented that he could produce at least three hundred middle-grade talismans. Calculating the profit per talisman as one lower-grade spirit stone, he could earn nearly three middle-grade spirit stones in profit.

After the handover was completed and there was no one around, Lin Xiu leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "Shopkeeper Qian, do you have any dual cultivation techniques for sale here?"

The shopkeeper Qian's eyes flashed instantly.

"You've asked the right person!"

After speaking, he took out a pink book from his storage bag and whispered, "This is a secret technique copied from a fairy at the 'Spring Night Tower' across the street. It's a cycle of one year and three hundred and sixty exchanges, combining essence and energy, yin and yang... The taste is amazing. I've tried it myself, and it really feels like reaching the Immortal Ascension realm."

Lin Xiu was very curious. "What if it's more than a thousand times a year?"

The shopkeeper Qian subtly looked down on him.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, this dual cultivation method can almost be practiced every night, in a continuous cycle. If practiced with multiple women, the results will be twice the effort. It's true that the path of desire is tireless, and longevity can be expected..."

Lin Xiu immediately interrupted his boasting and asked directly, "How many spirit stones?"

"Just three middle-grade spirit stones, and it comes with the latest spirit whip developed by the 'Qiqiao Pavilion'..."

"I'll take my leave!"

This old guy really thinks I haven't read the "Pengzu Longevity Sutra"? And the secret technique from the Xianyin Pavilion is only worth three middle-grade spirit stones?

But he also got a hint from this.

"Multiple female cultivators?"

If the peripheral system is not a husband and wife system but a dual cultivation system...

Can I try to develop my own Goldfinger again?

Here, polygamy is common, and even in the mortal world, not taking several concubines will be seen as a lack of ability.

Moreover, Li Yingxue has intentionally or unintentionally conveyed the message of accepting concubines because she has not given birth to a child for him.

At that time, he had many concerns,

Of course, the main concern was the high cost of dowry!

The current situation requires finding a female cultivator with at least some spiritual roots, otherwise the system will still be in a semi-paralyzed state.

But when he thought about the price Red Sister offered two years ago...

Just as he was complaining, his attention was distracted, and he smelled a strong rouge scent, then bumped into someone.

"Hey, who's the blind one? It hurts so much!"

Red Sister twisted her waist and stood on the street, shouting in pain, looking like a scammer.

Think of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao is here.

It has been two years since he last saw her. Lin Xiu looked at her performance with amusement, and finally said, "Red Sister, I'm not a newcomer, can't you see who it is?"

Although he hasn't escaped poverty yet, his shabby robe has been replaced with a slightly better one, and he looks much more spirited, with a touch of elegance.

Red Sister tilted her head and recognized him after a moment.

"Hey, congratulations to Fellow Daoist Lin for entering the mid-stage of Qi Refining! It's been a few years, what was her name? Oh, has Mrs. Lin already given birth to a child for you? How is her aptitude?"

Lin Xiu smiled awkwardly.

"No child yet."

Red Sister's eyes lit up. This business has come knocking on her door, hasn't it?

But Lin Xiu had a faint sense of confusion in his heart and wanted to ask Red Sister a question.

"Do you have some kind of matchmaker system?"

Otherwise, how did I think of taking concubines and you received a system prompt?

The atmosphere in the "Worry Relief Shop" is always so relaxing.

Red Sister sent away a fifty-year-old single Qi Refining cultivator who came to find a wife, then grabbed Lin Xiu's sleeve and started talking non-stop.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, according to my calculations, you're almost forty-two years old. Although you have reached the fourth level of Qi Refining, you must reach the Foundation Building stage before sixty... "

After sixty, the spiritual roots of cultivators will rapidly decline and shrink, and the speed of cultivation will greatly decrease. If they haven't reached Foundation Building by the age of one hundred, their spiritual roots will disappear, and they will become ordinary mortals. No matter how many advanced techniques and spirit stones they have, it will be in vain.

Generally speaking, most people consider sixty as the last deadline to impact the Foundation Building stage.

This is the rule of heaven and earth, an unshakable iron law.

"So, as the saying goes, while you're young, you should hurry up and have children. Recently, a Fellow Daoist in the neighboring Yonghe Market gave birth to a child similar to you, with dual spiritual roots. He was directly accepted as a disciple by an elder of the Purple Cloud Sect, and that Fellow Daoist also received the protection of the elder. What a great thing!"

Lin Xiu's eyes brightened.

Song Bailing's words were still vivid in his mind. There seems to be an invisible conspiracy going on in this market. If he can get the protection of the Purple Cloud Sect with outstanding children, then the danger will be minimized, right?

"Um, I still need to discuss this with my wife..."

"Why do you need to discuss it? As a cultivator, do you need to explain to a mortal even if you take a concubine?"

In this Qianjue Peak, where cultivators are as common as stray dogs, there is nothing wrong with this statement.

Lin Xiu still whispered, "After all, it's not entirely appropriate."

Then he realized that he seemed a bit too self-conscious. Clearly, he was willing in his heart, otherwise why would he appear here?
