The next day.
Su Ru summoned Murong Fu and Tian Ling'er again and said, "It's been decided. A month from now is an auspicious day, and we will hold a banquet for everyone."
Murong Fu nodded very seriously: "Mother-in-law, you can make the arrangements. I will follow your instructions."
Tian Ling'er chuckled, "Mother, you can decide what to do. My husband and I are both fine with it."
"You're already calling him 'husband'?"
Su Ru glared at her.
Tian Ling'er blinked and smiled, "Anyway, we're getting married in a month, so it's just a matter of calling it a month earlier."
Su Ru sighed and said, "You should all be more careful and not overwork yourselves."
Tian Ling'er nodded subconsciously in agreement: "I understand, Mother~"
Murong Fu said quietly, "Mother-in-law, you must be an expert in divination, to know that your son-in-law and senior sister have no self-control."
Before Su Ru could answer, Murong Fu continued, "Mother-in-law, don't worry. My son-in-law and Ling'er are just at the age of being ignorant and curious. They will get much better after a while."
"Ah, right, right."
Tian Ling'er echoed this with a strange expression.
As far as she knew, her mother was not good at divination, but she was very good at wielding a sword to slay demons.
Did Mother peek at us?
For a moment, Tian Ling'er's gaze became increasingly strange.
"Ling'er!" Su Ru said coldly, her brows furrowed. "I asked you to teach your junior brother cultivation, why haven't you taught him the techniques yet?"
"ah?"
Tian Ling'er was stunned. There was simply no time to teach her cultivation techniques; they didn't even have enough time to discuss life.
"Mother-in-law, it's not Sister Ling'er's fault. It's just that I'm new here and haven't yet adapted to the environment of Dazhu Peak, so I'm finding it difficult to concentrate on my cultivation," Murong Fu said, patting his chest as he assured her.
"Mother-in-law, please rest assured, your son-in-law will definitely cultivate diligently and will not let you and Senior Sister Ling'er down!"
"snort!"
Su Ru gave a heavy snort and walked into the back hall.
Seeing that Tian Buyi had retreated into his seclusion room again, he couldn't help but curse inwardly: Useless!
I never imagined that I would be living as a widow at such a young age, not even five hundred years old.
Alas!
...
"My lord, the cultivation realms are divided into Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and Deity Transformation. Our Qingyun Sect's cultivation method is the Taiji Xuanqing Dao, which is the supreme cultivation method of the Deity Transformation Dao."
Tian Ling'er explained very carefully.
Murong Fu asked, "And what about beyond the Nascent Soul stage?"
Tian Ling'er explained, "Those who have reached the Nascent Soul stage will ascend to the Upper Realm, but since Ancestor Qingye ascended ten thousand years ago, no one has ascended since."
"Understood."
Murong Fu nodded.
Tian Ling'er continued, "Let's get back to the Taiji Xuanqing Dao..."
With Tian Ling'er providing hands-on instruction, Murong Fu made rapid progress.
The vast amount of true essence slowly transformed into magical power.
boom!
Murong Fu's aura surged, and his cultivation in the immortal path increased dramatically at a visible speed.
Tian Ling'er was completely stunned.
Level 1 of Qi Refining.
Qi Refining Level 2.
...
Qi Refining Level 8.
Qi Refining Level 9.
...
In the blink of an eye, he reached the peak of the twelfth level of Qi Refining.
Click!
It only lasted a few seconds before the barrier of his realm shattered like a mirror, breaking through with a roar.
The foundation is laid on the first floor.
The foundation is on the second floor.
...
The peak of the twelfth level of Foundation Establishment.
Tian Ling'er was stunned. She had never seen such a powerful person before. She asked blankly, "Is he going to break through to the Golden Core stage in one go?"
She started cultivating at the age of six, and after ten years of hard work, she finally reached the twelfth level of Qi Refining, which already made her one of the top geniuses in the Qingyun Sect.
But today, I watched as Murong Fu broke through to the twelfth level of Foundation Establishment in one go!
A reincarnation of the Qingye Patriarch?
boom!
Another burst of momentum erupted.
Murong Fu's cultivation level in the immortal path remained at the peak of the first level of the Golden Core stage.
"Phew~"
Murong Fu exhaled a breath of turbid air and murmured, "Indeed, there is no end to cultivation. I did not expect that the barrier of the first level of the Golden Core stage would be so difficult."
That concludes the discussion.
Murong Fu converted all his martial arts essence into magical power.
This process involves considerable losses; otherwise, under ideal circumstances, the final cultivation level should be the twelfth level of the Golden Core stage.
"Senior Sister Ling'er, how long have I been cultivating?" Murong Fu turned his head and asked.
“…Three hours,” Tian Ling’er replied blankly.
“There is no time in cultivation; three hours have passed in the blink of an eye,” Murong Fu sighed.
Tian Ling'er's lips twitched violently. "You closed your eyes and opened them again—three major realms in one blink! How am I supposed to answer that?!"
"Husband, have you taken any elixirs or magical fruits?" After thinking for a moment, Tian Ling'er asked.
"A miraculous elixir?" Murong Fu was taken aback and shook his head.
"No... But now that you ask, I remember that when I was traveling the world, I once encountered a fire unicorn and an ice phoenix locked in a fierce battle."
"I accidentally ingested their blood and was unconscious for several days. When I woke up, I found that my martial arts skills had improved."
Tian Ling'er was stunned. "My husband has such a fortunate encounter!"
Suddenly, a figure descended from the sky.
It was Su Ru.
Su Ru exclaimed excitedly, "Good lad! You are indeed blessed with good fortune! No wonder you survived the aftermath of the battle between the Black Water Serpent and the Yellow Bird. It turns out you had this opportunity all along!"
Murong Fu remained calm and used his magic power to sense that Su Ru was in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, probably around the third level of the Nascent Soul realm.
Tian Ling'er pouted and said, "Mother~ you said you didn't peep."
"Cough!" Su Ru's pretty face flushed red, and she coughed heavily. "That's not important! What's important is that this kid has such a great opportunity. It's truly a blessing for our Great Bamboo Peak!"
