Seeking Immortality In The Cultivation World

After bidding farewell to Ge Chun downstairs at the Ramadan Tower, he headed straight home.

It's quite funny that out of the two friends he recognized, he only learned this person's name today.

But that's enough.

He looked up at the sky, and beneath the sky stood the towering fortress defense array, cold and abrupt.

"Array?"

Suddenly, the words of the dying man came to mind.

But he shook his head.

Although he wasn't an array master, as a foundation of cultivation, most cultivators would learn some basic theories about formations.

Casting spells is actually a manifestation of formations. If formations can be incorporated into the refinement of pills, the success rate of the pills would greatly increase and their effectiveness would be better.

The same goes for making talismans.

Talisman symbols are developed based on formations.

In his eyes, this defensive formation was ordinary and flawless, except that it seemed larger.

But what's wrong with it being larger?

It proves that its defensive capabilities are stronger!

They say cultivation knows no time, and advanced cultivators often count their seclusion in terms of decades or even centuries.

Lin Xiu's cultivation was too low, so he counted it in terms of days.

But in the blink of an eye, ten months had passed, winter had passed, and new branches had sprouted from the willow tree in the courtyard.

Li Yingxue diligently practiced martial arts in the courtyard, and she could now control seven snowmen flying in the air at the same time, each with a hint of expression.

Lin Xiu admired his legal wife's talent in martial arts. She was only twenty-three years old and already had the aura of a martial arts grandmaster.

Of course, this was only for show.

And at the moment, the only outsider was a sissy.

When they were alone, she still blushed at the slightest provocation.

He walked upstairs with his hands behind his back.

The quiet room on the second floor was a different scene.

Qin Yawen puffed her cheeks and stared at the alchemy furnace in front of her, which was emitting green smoke, afraid that it would explode again.

Currently, she could only refine some low-grade pills, but in Lin Xiu's eyes, she would be promoted to the next level in a few months, which made him very pleased.

As for the [Green Pupil] skill brought by his own system, he had already automatically included it in the accumulated skills along with [Love is as Strong as Gold].

As for [Green Pupil], he didn't mind. He planned to upgrade it a few levels when he had enough experience, but he didn't understand why the system gave him [Love is as Strong as Gold].

Are they a couple on the battlefield?

Fighting represents a threat to one's life. It's better to honestly be a talisman master, as there are people everywhere who need them.

Once he reached a higher level, few cultivators would dare to offend him just because of his identity.

But it's also possible. It's better than nothing. In case there's a fight that can't be avoided...

It would be better if his wife was nearby!

Sigh!

Lin Xiu sat on the side with a cup of tea after dinner, sipping the tea and thinking about the dying man's words.

"Could there really be something wrong with this defensive formation?"

"In the past, when the demonic beasts ravaged the four major markets, the formation was set up, which was reasonable. But Song Bailing bluntly said that these demonic beasts were deliberately released, which is a problem."

After pondering for a long time, he couldn't figure it out, so he decided not to waste any more brain cells.

No matter what tricks you have up your sleeve, saving money and running away is definitely the best solution!

Thinking of this, he got up and went downstairs to start frantically making talismans.

He had always been thinking about the talisman pens in the second-floor pen holder of the Treasure Pavilion.

"When I have time, I should go and ask. As long as I can get my hands on them, I'll even sell the pot and the iron to buy them!"

After completing the daily tasks, he stretched his waist and went to the second-floor bedroom.

His wives were sitting in a row on the big bed, one reading a book about pills, and the other studying the essence of martial arts with "The Rising Moon on the Sea".

Lin Xiu rubbed his hands and took out a yellow book.

"Ladies, I have come across a wonderful technique. Why don't we try it together?"

Qin Yawen rolled her eyes at him, put down the book on pills, and lay on the pillow, her waistline astonishing.

This reminded Lin Xiu of the big-eyed female cultivator in the Treasure Pavilion.

"High Mountains and Flowing Water?"

Someone's gaze immediately shifted to the high mountains under Qin Yawen's neck.

Li Yingxue snorted, "I'm afraid it's just empty talk!"

Lin Xiu narrowed his eyes, "Nonsense! Today, I will achieve great success. No one can escape!"

...

After six rounds, the three parties called a truce.

Lin Xiu embraced his wives on both sides, his eyes fixed on the system panel.

[You and your wife have cultivated together three times, gaining 6 flexible experience points.]

[Your wife's favorability fluctuates: 109 (locked at 100).]

[Emotional bonus: 5.]

[Talisman Master: First-grade high-quality +14900/30000.]

[Cultivation: Qi Refining Fifth Layer +44602/50000.]

[Love is as strong as gold: Within ten zhang, partners gain 109% cultivation from each other (emotional bonus).]

It had been over a year since he last advanced to the Qi Refining Fifth Layer.

He had also reached the age of forty-four.

"Time flies!"

At the current speed, in at most two months, he would enter the Qi Refining Sixth Layer!

The improvement in cultivation not only represented increased safety, but also further accumulation of spiritual energy and expansion of spiritual consciousness.

For a talisman master, this was very important as it represented an increase in the efficiency of talisman making.

Unlike now, where he had to sit down and recover spiritual energy and consciousness after every three hours of refining.

The rapid progress was naturally due to the "Couples' Joy" dual cultivation technique given by Hong Jie.

Secondly, it was the blessing of the medium-grade water spirit root, which greatly accelerated his cultivation speed.

Lastly, it was the spirit stones.

Of course, the spiritual vein brought down by the Purple Cloud Sect also played a role, to the point that the cultivation speed of all independent cultivators in the market was not considered slow.

Now, every time he cultivated, he held two spirit stones in his hand, equivalent to the treatment of a disciple in the inner sect.

He rubbed the cute little heads of his wives and pushed the panel down to the partner interface.

[You and your partner Qin Yawen have cultivated together three times, gaining 45 flexible experience points.]

[Qin Yawen's favorability towards you currently fluctuates at 89.]

[Emotional bonus: 3.]

[Green Pupil: One-star visual range +370/1000.]

[Water attribute spirit root: Medium-grade +9994/10000 (upgradeable).]

Lin Xiu's eyes sparkled as he looked at these numbers.

He lowered his head and whispered in Qin Yawen's ear, "Wen'er, this is the last time. I'll listen to you. Let's be like-minded!"

"Wu wu~"

Li Yingxue grabbed her clothes and ran away.

Half an hour later, the water attribute spirit root successfully advanced to the high-grade level!

In an instant, he felt that his affinity with spiritual energy had increased several times over!

Even without deliberately sensing it, spiritual energy would automatically enter his body through his pores and flow into his dantian along his meridians.

Water nourishes beauty.

Since marrying Qin Yawen and developing this "Goldfinger" that enhanced his spirit root, his appearance had gradually returned to his youthful self.

Now, he looked no more than twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, and even became more handsome.

Of course, it was only his appearance. His ability to suppress the bed and the need to take medicine every day had not improved at all.

Several heavy snowfalls had covered the entire Thousand Despair Mountains in silver.

Even so, it did not dampen the enthusiasm of independent cultivators to explore that secret realm.

Since the last time Ji Ning went out, there had been no news from her.

Lin Xiu had almost taken out a voice transmission talisman, but he held back.

If Ji Ning was in a dangerous battle, a sudden Spiritual Ascension could very well cost him his life.

However, a voice transmission talisman from another person did arrive.

"Old Lin, I got a spot! Come to my place tomorrow and let's have a drink!"

Lin Xiu smiled and suddenly remembered that it was early spring, and these days were the time to pay rent.

It seemed that he had to go to the steward's office.
