The bright moon shines in the clear night.

Large flakes of snow fell across the vast, empty world.

Qin Shou walked alone through the snow, slowing his pace as he admired the magnificent snowfall he had never seen before.

Everyone says that beauty in the world lies in what you've never seen before.

Following the directions, Qin Shou quickly arrived at his destination, the Immortal Mountain of Immortality.

The vast wilderness stretched out before them, desolate and silent. A single mountain peak stood between heaven and earth, seemingly the only one in this region. Its imposing form rose straight into the azure sky, shrouded in an array. Though it appeared close, it felt as if it were separated by an entire world.

Even with Qin Beast's cultivation level, it took him several hours to cross the mountain and reach its foot after he saw it.

"The Dao's influence has flowed throughout the world for ages; the sacred sites and grottoes have been renewed. Auspicious omens from immortals manifest miracles; through arduous cultivation, one attains immortality."

Qin Shou gazed at the stone tablet at the foot of the mountain and murmured to himself.

Then, looking around, my divine sense, as vast as the ocean, still could not reach the end of the mountain.

"Hehe, everyone says, 'The Everlasting Mountain lives as long as the heavens, possessing the world for a hundred million years,' but I wonder if this mountain is truly as wondrous as the legends claim."

As he spoke, Qin Shou attempted to climb the mountain, but after crossing several dozen steps, he was blocked by a figure.

She wore a white dress, her face veiled, and her eyes sparkled with a celestial aura. In her jade-like hand, she held a small glass lantern, its flame flickering and reflecting dreamlike colors onto the surrounding snow.

"My humble daughter, Yue, has been waiting here for you for some time, as instructed by our patriarch."

"Wait for me?"

Qin Shou was slightly taken aback, then chuckled, "Could it be that the owner of this place is someone who can predict the future?"

Buzz!

The space trembled, and an earthy yellow bead appeared in the woman's palm.

"Earth Spirit Orb!"

Qin Shou narrowed his eyes... It seems the owner of this place is indeed a shrewd and calculating person.

"What can I offer in exchange for this spirit pearl?"

Qin Shou asked.

The Immortal Moon shook her head. "By order of the Ancestral Master, this Earth Spirit Pearl is given to you, sir, in exchange for nothing."

"oh!? "

Qin Shou was puzzled. He raised his gaze and looked at the mountain again. In a daze, he seemed to see a pair of wise eyes looking at him from under the green pines in the snow on the mountaintop, and gesturing with a smile.

"May I ask if you could introduce me to the owner of this place so I can thank you in person?" Qin Shou looked at the woman.

The woman shook her head. "The patriarch said that you are destined for this bead, but not for this mountain, so please leave."

As they spoke, the Earth Spirit Orb floated up to Qin Beast's front.

Qin Shou pondered for a moment, then accepted the spirit pearl, folded his hands in a graceful bow to the snowy night, and said, "Thank you."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Behind me, a gentle breeze carries the scent of falling snow, swirling like flakes of silver.

The woman stood on the stone steps in the mountains, watching the man's departing figure until he disappeared from sight.

The sky and earth were vast and empty, as if they had never existed before.

"I am a born immortal with the wisdom to see through the ages, yet I cannot discern even the slightest trace of this person's origins or destination. This is truly strange."

......

After descending the mountain, Qin Shou felt that the trip had gone extremely smoothly, and his mood improved as a result.

"Such a beautiful day! It's been so long since I've seen my auntie; I miss her terribly."

The immortal's body vanished into the wind and snow, and the next second, it appeared in a cave.

At this moment, on a white jade platform in the center of the cave, Nangong Liuli sat cross-legged, cultivating with her eyes closed, completely unaware that someone had intruded into her territory.

A lotus flower floated in front of her, surrounded by sword energy.

This is a sword lotus, naturally grown and extremely precious, with only one found every thousand years. Nangong Liuli obtained it by chance and then found a secret place to cultivate in.

As Qin Shou gazed at that familiar, celestial face, his heart stirred, as if spring had arrived and his beastly heart was beginning to stir...

"Strange, is it because this old lady is getting more and more beautiful... or is it because I haven't seen her in so long and my lustful desires are waning..."

Qin Shou didn't disturb her. He simply found a quiet spot to sit, resting his chin on his hand and watching quietly. Of course, he didn't forget to use the system to check for any unexpected risks around him, so he could make a quick escape at any moment.

Half a year later, Nangong Liuli awoke from her enlightenment. The moment she opened her hazy eyes, she saw a handsome immortal sitting cross-legged not far in front of her, smiling at her.

His teeth are so white... This was the first thought that inexplicably came to Nangong Liuli's mind, followed by a barely perceptible twitch of her eyebrows.

"Could it be a hallucination?"

So she closed her beautiful eyes for a while, then slowly opened them again.

At this moment, Qin Shou's figure had already faded into the void.

"Phew, it must have been an illusion."

Nangong Liuli breathed a sigh of relief, but a hint of barely perceptible disappointment seemed to show in her eyes.

Just then, Qin Shou's figure solidified again, still in the same posture, sitting cross-legged not far in front of her, grinning with a set of snow-white teeth, and said, "Old auntie, are you hallucinating because you miss me so much?"

brush!

Close your eyes—open your eyes—close your eyes—open your eyes—

Nangong Liuli finally confirmed that the person before her was real, and understood that he had just been teasing her. Her anger, which had been rising to her lips, somehow transformed into a coquettish, angry cry: "You beast, how could you be here?!"

He had gone through so much trouble to find this extremely secluded place, yet this person always managed to find him with perfect accuracy.

"I know how to locate tadpoles."

Qin Shou laughed loudly, stepped forward and grabbed Nangong Liuli's slender waist, then unceremoniously rested his head on her shoulder and rubbed against her.

If this action were performed on another person, Nangong Liuli would find it disgusting. But this person was just so good-looking. Thinking back to the time when she mustered up the courage to take the initiative, wasn't it also because of the devastating power of this face?

What is tadpole localization?

Nangong Liuli had a question.

"It's just the tadpole positioning," Qin Shou said, swaying Nangong Liuli's waist. "Let's do it again tonight."

"?" Nangong Liuli didn't understand the term "tadpole," but she figured it must be some kind of tracking technique.

It's been over a hundred years since we last met. The old lady, who used to be quite reserved, has become surprisingly unreserved tonight. But thankfully, she has a good set of kidneys.

"Auntie, is it hard working out there? Would you like to come back to the mountains with me?"

After their lovemaking, the Qin beast's claws began to become restless.

"I won't reply."

"Not going back?"

"uh-huh. "

"Okay, I'll take another nap then."

As they spoke, they pressed their advantage and seized the initiative.

Cultivators possess such powerful physical bodies that every attack they launch often causes the earth to shake.

One month later.

Qin Shou pulled up his pants, turned around and left without looking back.

“.............”

With her cheeks flushed and her expression languid, Nangong Liuli hadn't even come to her senses when she saw the heartless man pull up his pants and leave. The whole action was done in one smooth motion, as if he had rehearsed it countless times.

This scene left her speechless...

"Pah! You beast, you animal, shameless!!!"

The beauty cursed angrily.

"Hey! Auntie, are you talking about me?"

The Qin beast poked its head out from the void and muttered:

"Looks like he didn't sleep soundly."

After another month of sparring, Qin Shou gathered his sword dao insights into nine sword intents and gave them to Nangong Liuli for careful study. Then he left gracefully, without taking a single piece of clothing with him, and generously left many brothers to guard the house.

Before leaving, I was actually a little reluctant to go.

Nangong Liuli's talent is top-notch in the small Yunzhou, but in the world, it can only be considered above average. Fortunately, she has good opportunities. It is just unknown whether she will be able to attain immortality in the future.

Nangong Liuli watched Qin Shou's departing figure and sighed almost imperceptibly. Then her gaze fell on the long sword in front of her. The crystal-like sword reflected in her clear, cold eyes, which still held a hint of allure, and gradually became resolute.

I do not inquire about the path to immortality, nor do I look back.
