"Calm down! Keep your mind steady, guide the spiritual energy outside your body, and break through the blocked meridians in one fell swoop." In the small world, Xu Chen was guiding Wang Li to advance to the fourth level of Qi Refining. With Xu Chen's encouragement, the slower time progress in the small world compared to the outside world, and the abundant supply of spiritual energy, Wang Li's cultivation level has taken another step forward.
After a long while, Wang Li opened her eyes with joy. Xu Chen looked helplessly at the black toxins seeping from her body and sighed that it was so difficult to start cultivating immortality halfway through. If she had been cultivating since childhood, the toxins and impurities would have been completely expelled long ago.
"You succeeded? Lili." Xu Chen walked closer and carefully sensed Wang Li's cultivation level. He confirmed that it was indeed the fourth level. Wang Li nodded. "Little Chenchen, cultivation is so wonderful. With each breakthrough, I have a lot more inexhaustible strength in my body, and I feel much lighter."
"Now, your husband will teach you a little magic spell. Are you willing to learn?"
"Yes, yes!"
Xu Chen gently tapped Wang Li's brow, transmitting the key points of the Fireball Technique into her mind, while simultaneously instructing her on how to cultivate it.
" channel your spiritual energy into your fingertips, the more the better!" Seeing the light emanating from Wang Li's fingers after she did so, Xu Chen nodded slightly and continued, "Manipulate the spiritual energy in your fingertips to rub against each other constantly, and do it quickly!"
A bright light suddenly appeared on Wang Li's fingertip, followed by a small flame. "Chenchen, I succeeded!" Wang Li looked at the small flame on her fingertip, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons with laughter. If she hadn't been near the spiritual vein that Xu Chen had obtained from Qin Ziyue, she probably would have collapsed from exhaustion by now.
"Continue to channel your spiritual energy and nurture this flame!" Following Xu Chen's instructions, Wang Li did as he said, and the ball of fire in her hand grew larger and larger, now covering half of her palm. At that moment, a sudden change occurred. "Ah!" Wang Li's skirt and inner garments were burned to nothing due to the extremely high temperature.
"Chenchen, what's going on?" Wang Li looked at her naked body and asked Xu Chen what was wrong. Xu Chen grinned and looked at Wang Li's fair and tender body. He pounced on her, and the two engaged in a day of double activities.
After finishing, Wang Li said wearily, "Chenchen, did you teach me this spell on purpose?"
Xu Chen stroked Wang Li's hair and nodded honestly. "Hehe, Lili, at this stage, you can't release your spiritual energy outside your body. To protect your clothes, I'll give you two sturdy ones." With that, he took out two dresses from his storage bag. They were the same style, but with a distinctly ancient feel. Spirit pearls nurtured in the deep sea were inlaid on them, and there were countless scales on the chest. They were Xu Chen's own treasures, produced by the immortal beast that guarded the spirit pearls. One was pure white, and the other was sea blue. The skirts swayed in the wind like silk. Wang Li liked them more and more as she looked at them, and walked forward to examine them closely.
"Chenchen, did you prepare this especially for me?"
"Of course, do you like it?"
"like!"
"Try them on."
After putting it on, Wang Li felt very comfortable. She walked over, tiptoed, and gently kissed Xu Chen's forehead. Then she took off the dress and changed back into the clothes in her storage bag.
"Lili, what's wrong with you??" Xu Chen asked, puzzled. After all, he had given Wang Li these two dresses for her safety.
"Chenchen, these two dresses are very pretty, so I've decided to wait until our wedding to wear them."
"Silly girl, I'll make you a new dress later."
"You big fool, I have them and you, that's enough for me."
At this moment, on Mount Kunlun, a light array slowly opened, and under the golden light, a gate appeared and disappeared. Then, several figures flew out from the gate, looking down at the majestic and magnificent Mount Kunlun.
"Senior brother, how many years have we been living in seclusion?" the man who led the way asked the old man with an air of otherworldly wisdom behind him.
“It’s been a thousand years! Ever since that powerful cultivator absorbed all the spiritual energy of the earth for his own use a thousand years ago, we have been hiding in our sect.”
"That old woman is truly despicable, but unfortunately, we don't have the strength to fight her."
"Let's get involved in the world first and see how it has changed."
Han Ying and Han Yu flew down from Kunlun Mountain towards the village at the foot of the mountain.
"Old man, where does the current emperor live?"
"An emperor?" The old farmer gathering herbs laughed heartily, then added, "There are no emperors these days." The old farmer staggered away, assuming the two were lunatics.
"Senior brother, why are you looking for the emperor?"
"Of course, we'll have him help us find supplies, medicines, and spiritual veins."
"Do you think it's possible, senior brother? The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is so thin now, it's very difficult to find these things anymore. The snow lotus I finally found last time was picked by someone..."
Han Ying suddenly asked, "It was picked? Who? Why didn't you tell me something so important?"
"It's just a spiritual herb, isn't it? Although there are very few left in the sect, we still have some, Senior Brother."
"I'm asking the person who picked the snow lotus. You idiot, we are the last native cultivators on Earth. Who else would need spiritual herbs besides us?"
"Warrior?"
"You didn't set up any formation around the snow lotus, so even a martial artist couldn't defend against it?"
"Oh right, I set up the formation, but it was still taken away."
"You're so stupid. Go find the ruler of the mortal world and ask him about the situation. See if you can find that cultivator. He might have come to Earth from outer space."
After asking questions along the way, the two finally arrived in the capital. At this time, Xu and Wang were packing their luggage to go home. Both of them felt two streams of energy entering the capital.
"Chenchen, just now... I didn't feel it wrong, did I?"
"No, it was indeed two cultivators who entered the capital." Xu Chen nodded, while also wondering why these two fellow cultivators were making such a big fuss and not concealing their auras, allowing Wang Li to detect them.
"Gentlemen, what brings you here from afar?" After a brief period of chaos within the core area, Tang Tiancheng stepped forward to negotiate with Han Ying and Han Yu. His other colleagues were shielded behind him.
"Don't be nervous, martial artist. We've come here simply to make a deal with you."
"Tell me, what kind of deal?" Tang Tiancheng pressed the emergency button on his phone, and a large group of special agents entered the conference room, drawing their guns and pointing them at Han Ying and Han Yu.
"Martial artist, do you know that offending us is a capital offense! They're carrying weapons, aren't they?" Han Yu said angrily. Han Ying reached out to stop Han Yu from continuing the conversation, which could potentially disrupt the negotiations.
"Don't be nervous. We're here just to find someone. With your status, it'll be easy for you to find them." Then, Han Ying took out a portrait. The portrait showed a young man picking something on the edge of a steep cliff. Due to the time constraints, their deduction techniques could only reconstruct a small part of the scene. The only reason they could tell it was a young man was because the person in the portrait had a completely black head, not white hair.
"We regret that we cannot help you; this portrait does not provide any useful information."
"Martial artist, are you courting death?!" Han Yu said impatiently, throwing a punch to hurt the martial artist in front of him. In an instant, Xu Chen appeared behind Tang Tiancheng, grabbed his arm, and yanked him away.
