Seeking Immortality In The Cultivation World

The sun was shining brightly, and it was already noon.

After a night of tossing and turning, Lin Xiu was now lying on a wicker chair outside the house, basking in the sun.

Watching his wives cleaning the courtyard, he absentmindedly opened the panel and began to contemplate.

Sure enough, the experience gained from Qin Yawen couldn't be applied to Li Yingxue's panel, which meant he couldn't use bugs to improve his cultivation.

This made him feel frustrated, as if he was at a disadvantage for not exploiting a loophole in the system.

"Well, for now, spiritual roots are more important, after all, they can enhance cultivation speed."

After using all the experience on his spiritual roots, he slapped his forehead.

How could he forget the big event?

It should be a triple blessing!

He took out the token for the second-grade courtyard and decided to move today!

Safety was the top priority.

In addition, the house was too small.

...

There were nearly a thousand independent courtyards built around the steward's hall in the bustling market.

Here, not only could one ensure maximum safety, but the spiritual energy was also the most abundant.

Wealth, law, partner, and land, although "land" was listed last, as one of the four essential elements of cultivation, no one would overlook this point.

Safety and suitability for cultivation, just these two points made countless people flock to this place.

In a mansion slightly on the outskirts of the central area of the market, Ji Ning, dressed in a black robe, was contemplating whether to go to the steward's hall to take on a mission. Staying here was too boring.

Of course, it was also because his purse was empty.

He regretted his decision to only bring one high-grade spirit stone with him.

With a wave of his hand, he rented a second-grade courtyard with sixty medium-grade spirit stones, and after casually strolling around the street, the rest was almost spent.

Now, he finally understood the hardships of being a poor person at the bottom.

Suddenly, he felt someone lightly tapping on the protective array outside the courtyard, someone was visiting.

Ji Ning became alert and casually tidied his hair before walking out of the room.

As soon as the door opened, he saw a man and two women standing outside, the man carrying a huge bundle.

?

Qi Refining First Layer, Qi Refining Fourth Layer, and another mortal...

This was quite interesting.

"Are you here to share the rent?"

Lin Xiu adjusted the large package on his back and made up his mind to get a better storage bag.

There didn't seem to be much stuff in the house usually, but why did everything come out when he moved?

Even Qin Yawen's storage bag couldn't fit everything...

He had received many disdainful looks while walking through the streets.

He quickly glanced at Ji Ning.

A young man in his twenties, quite handsome, indeed at the Qi Refining Sixth Layer.

He felt a slight jealousy in his heart.

Indeed, he was from a powerful sect. When he was twenty years old, he was still struggling at the Qi Refining Second Layer, while others easily reached the sixth layer.

Since they were both in the middle stage, there was no need to address him as a senior.

Moreover, he had never seen a cultivator who liked to wear black clothes.

"This must be Fellow Daoist Ji. I was introduced by Sister Hong. I'm sure you already know. These are my wives."

After speaking, he showed the token in his hand.

Ji Ning took it and examined it, then nodded.

"Since it was Sister Hong who introduced you, there shouldn't be a problem. The rent is thirty medium-grade spirit stones. I'll live in the backyard!"

After saying that, he threw the token back and turned to leave.

Watching him walk away with a cool expression, Lin Xiu touched his nose and chuckled to himself.

What a show-off, he probably can't even afford a meal now, right?

Then, with a smile on his face, he called out to his wives, "Stop standing there, let's go into our new home!"

Three people happily walked through the gate.

Ji Ning, who had already entered the gate, suddenly felt an itch in her nose. She sneezed loudly, rubbed her nose, and cursed at Qian Juefeng in the distance.

"Which old guy is backstabbing me again?"

.....

Lin Xiu fell in love with this courtyard as soon as he entered.

This courtyard used to belong to a mid-Foundation Building stage Independent Cultivator.

However, it was said that his luck was bad and he had died just a few days ago.

There were two two-story buildings in the front and back of the courtyard, and the courtyard was filled with various flowers, plants, willow trees, and a small pond with an artificial mountain.

What surprised him was that the water in this pond actually came from a spiritual spring, although the spiritual energy it contained was far from that of a low-grade spiritual stone, it was perfect for cooking and making tea.

The first floor of the small building was used for daily activities, and the second floor was divided into two rooms, a quiet room and a bedroom.

The bed was very big.

Li Yingxue and Qin Yawen started to tidy up the house with sweet smiles on their faces, constantly arranging the belongings they had brought.

Lin Xiu sat on a chair like a master, emptied the things from his storage bag, and then lay down.

While enjoying the occasional charming appearance of his wives as they bent over and moved around, he pondered about Ji Ning.

She looked good and had a sense of arrogance.

But he could also understand that these children of prominent families wouldn't be themselves if they didn't have a bit of arrogance.

Her robe was good, and from the faint array patterns on it, it was at least of superior quality and quite valuable.

However, her way of walking seemed a bit effeminate. If it weren't for deliberately glancing at her chest and Adam's apple, it would have been thought that she was a woman disguised as a man.

"Well, let's observe a bit more. If it doesn't work out, we'll move!"

Thinking of this, he took out a sound transmission talisman.

"Old Ge, I can't wait for the spot anymore. I found a roommate and have already moved in."

After waiting for a while without a response, he didn't care anymore and got up to walk from the first floor to the second floor.

Casually waving his hand, the house that his wives had just finished decorating immediately looked like it had been chewed up by a dog.

Seeing the two women looking puzzled, he clapped his hands.

"We don't need these broken things. It's getting late. Tomorrow, husband will take you shopping. Buy whatever you like!"

The two women immediately cheered and rushed over.

In no time, the chair couldn't bear the weight it had never borne since it was made and creaked, almost falling apart.

Lin Xiu wiped off the rouge on his face, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and thought to himself.

A big house is indeed good!

He used to live in a remote area of the Independent Cultivator slums, where bandits roamed. He didn't dare to take his wife shopping. This time, he planned to make it up to her.

That night, Li Yingxue chose to meditate quietly and consolidate her Grandmaster realm.

Lin Xiu thoughtfully threw out a "soundproof talisman" to cover the quiet room.

Then, he began to show off his skills, happily demonstrating the techniques from the "Married Bliss" book to his newly acquired concubines one by one, until he fell asleep in each other's arms on the eighth page.

The next day, he energetically went downstairs.

Qin Yawen was lying on the bed with a somewhat listless expression.

At this moment, she finally understood what Li Yingxue meant by "being more enthusiastic."

Soon, Li Yingxue's voice came from downstairs.

"Little Wen, are you okay? Forget it, sister will bring you porridge!"

.....

At this time, Ji Ning in the backyard was very unhappy.

After returning to the building last night, she was waiting for her roommate to take the initiative to pay the rent!

But she didn't receive the rent, and the sound of crying and howling came from the front as soon as night fell.

Frustrated and angry, she stared all night, and now her eyes were bloodshot!

Until it was bright outside, she gritted her teeth and decided to take the initiative.

But as soon as she stepped out of the gate, she felt the protective formation loosen, and the person had actually left!

Feeling the urge to forcefully slap this person to death, she threw a Qi Gathering Pill into her mouth.

She sat down and meditated!

At the same time, she mentally labeled this roommate as "indulging in excessive desires"!
