Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

Within Celestial Peak Mountain, Core Formation cultivators resided on the nine inner mountain peaks.

With Jade Dawn Peak taking the lead and Gold Dawn Peak at the rear, they resembled a coiled dragon, protecting the Three Truths Peak within their embrace.

After Su Yuanxiao advanced to Pseudo-Core, she moved her cave dwelling from Moonveil Peak to Gold Dawn Peak, choosing a sunny hillside with pavilions and towers, presenting a grand spectacle.

"Master, is this Senior Aunt Su's cave dwelling? How is it more magnificent and luxurious than True Person Tong's residence!" Zhang Yu asked softly, gazing from afar.

"Yes, this should be the place," Zhang Yuanjing said vaguely. "Your Senior Aunt Su enjoys cultivating spiritual herbs, so many people probably come here to exchange spiritual medicines with her, hence the numerous buildings. Within the mountain's belly, there is also a cave dwelling, serving as a place for secluded cultivation."

Zhang Yu suddenly understood: "Oh, that's how it is. Well, it would be too boring to meditate in a cave dwelling all day. Growing some flowers and plants is also nice."

Then, she changed the topic: "However, I prefer raising spiritual beasts. Master, is your black-maned lion beast male or female? When will it give birth to a baby beast? I really want to raise one!"

"That one is called a Azure-Eyed Suanni Beast, and it's male. To have it produce cubs, we'd have to find a female beast, but where can we find one?" Zhang Yuanjing shook his head, and seeing Zhang Yu's disappointment, added, "It depends on fate; maybe we'll encounter one someday."

Before long, the two landed before the cluster of palaces. At the forefront, there was a gatehouse with a half-closed wooden door, and a woman in her forties was dozing in a rocking chair.

Zhang Yuanjing coughed lightly and said, "Please inform her that Zhang Yuanjing is here to visit."

The woman was in a daze, startled awake, and somewhat displeased. She only had a low-level Qi Refining cultivation, but she had good judgment. Seeing that the two people before her had restrained their auras, making it impossible to discern their depths, she knew they were of high realm and immediately responded, going inside to report.

The two waited outside the gate. This wait lasted for half an hour.

Zhang Yu said, sulking, "This Senior Aunt Su is putting on too much airs. I won't cultivate with her. If I don't understand something about the techniques, I'll just ask a True Person directly. What's so great about her!"

Zhang Yuanjing patted her shoulder and said, "Alright, Yu'er, don't speak carelessly. Your teacher doesn't have your Senior Aunt Su's transmission jade, so I couldn't make an appointment beforehand. Coming directly like this is actually somewhat impolite. Let's just wait."

As he spoke, the woman came out of the gatehouse, bowed to Zhang Yuanjing, and said obsequiously, "May I inform you, honored guests, that when Miss Su heard that Elder Zhang was here, she went to change her clothes and asked this humble woman to lead the two of you to the guest hall to sit for a while."

Zhang Yuanjing nodded and said, "Then we'll trouble you!"

The woman quickly said she wouldn't dare and, stepping aside, led the way, bringing the two to a spacious hall on the west side, inviting them to sit down. Then, two mortal women served fragrant tea and fruits.

While drinking tea, Zhang Yu said with a smile, "Master, since I was young, I've only seen you cultivating diligently, and the cave dwelling you carved out by the Crimson Creek River has nothing in it. I thought all cultivators were so austere! Now it seems that you just don't know how to enjoy life!"

Zhang Yuanjing said sternly, "Cultivators should prioritize cultivation. As for enjoying mundane things, it varies from person to person, as long as it doesn't affect cultivation. Of course, your teacher hopes you won't learn this."

Zhang Yu quickly nodded: "Master, I understand."

However, her eyes kept darting around the hall, showing great interest.

After another quarter of an hour, Su Yuanxiao finally arrived.

She wore a light yellow dress, with a thin veil draped over her upper body, a smile on her lips, and graceful steps, exuding a captivating charm.

Zhang Yu wrinkled her jade-like nose, looking at this woman suspiciously, instinctively feeling that something was not right.

"Senior Brother Zhang, I've kept you waiting. I apologize!" As soon as Su Yuanxiao entered the hall, she clasped her hands in front of her waist, bowed slightly, and gave Zhang Yuanjing a salute.

Zhang Yuanjing quickly stood up and said, "Junior Sister Su, you don't need to be so polite. It's I who came rashly, without making arrangements with you beforehand."

Su Yuanxiao's beautiful eyes looked at Zhang Yu, and her eyes lit up instantly. A moonlit smile bloomed on her face as she asked, "This must be Senior Brother's esteemed disciple. She's truly outstanding and lovable!"

Zhang Yuanjing turned his head and said, "Yu'er, pay your respects to your Senior Aunt Su."

Zhang Yu obediently took two steps forward, gave Su Yuanxiao a curtsy, and said in a delicate voice, "Disciple Zhang Yu greets Senior Aunt Su. Senior Aunt Su is as beautiful as a celestial being. No wonder my master seems so nervous here!"

Zhang Yuanjing was stunned, then reprimanded with a straight face, "Just pay your respects properly, don't talk nonsense!"

Su Yuanxiao chuckled and said to Zhang Yuanjing, "Senior Brother Zhang, your female disciple is really playful, quite different from your style. However, she suits my taste!"

Zhang Yuanjing smiled awkwardly: "That's great. In the future, I'll have to trouble Junior Sister Su to discipline her."

Seeing Zhang Yu with an unwilling expression, Su Yuanxiao's eyes flashed with a hint of playfulness, but she said seriously, "This is what the True Person ordered, and she's Senior Brother Zhang's most precious disciple. I will naturally do my best and not disappoint Senior Brother!"

She paused, then said, "However, when will Senior Brother present the gift you promised me?"

Since Zhang Yuanjing had come here, he was already prepared. He immediately took out a section of the purple spiritual plant's remnant root, on which a tender bud had already grown, completely light green, which was naturally not comparable to the one he presented to Liu Yuanqing.

"After Senior Sister Su gave me this purple remnant root, after many attempts, I finally managed to cultivate it to life. I wonder if Senior Sister is satisfied?"

Su Yuanxiao rolled her eyes and immediately understood that with Zhang Yuanjing's ability, he could cultivate countless plants once he could cultivate one. This plant was probably only recently cultivated.

She smiled charmingly and said, "It's only just sprouted, and with my limited knowledge, I can't recognize what spiritual plant it is based on this. Why don't Senior Brother cultivate it for a while longer, and give it to me when the branches and leaves are lush."

Zhang Yuanjing had also prepared a butterfly orchid. If Su Yuanxiao was not satisfied, he would take it out and give it to her as well, but he did not expect her to make such a request.

This purple remnant root is a high-grade Mysterious spiritual herb, which is not easy to cultivate. It is not known how much effort it will take to grow to "lush branches and leaves". However, according to the True Person's request, Zhang Yu had to entrust her to take care of her, and he could not refuse.

He nodded and said, "Since Senior Sister Su has this request, I will naturally do it well."

Su Yuanxiao immediately rejoiced like a little girl: "Then thank you, Senior Brother Zhang. This is the best gift I've ever received!"

Zhang Yu watched coldly, not seeing any unclear relationship between her master and this woman who exuded charm in her bones, but she didn't want to just watch the two of them talk like this.

So she interjected, "Senior Aunt Su, I heard from my master that you especially like raising spiritual plants. I wonder what's so good about these things? If it were me, I would raise spiritual beasts, which are so cute and fun."

Su Yuanxiao's eyes turned, landing prettily on Zhang Yu's face, and she said with a smile, "Raising spiritual beasts is also very good. I not only like cultivating spiritual plants, but also raise many spiritual beasts. Would you like to go and take a look? If you fancy any of them, your Senior Aunt will give it to you!"
