"If what you say is true, I might as well let your true form go."
However, you must first hand over your ten-thousand-year-old ginseng core. Only after I break through my cultivation level can I let your true form leave.
As for where you go to resume your training, I won't interfere.
Upon hearing Lu Xuan's words, the ten-thousand-year-old ginseng spirit in front of him said happily:
"Thank you for sparing my life, Immortal Master. Of course, if you had refused me just now, once my ginseng essence self-destructed its inner core, you would not only have gained nothing, but you would also have been killed by the force of my self-destruction."
"Really? It seems I made the right choice."
Alright, enough with the useless nonsense, hand over your inner core.
Oh, and remember to leave some of your tendrils; I'll need them.
He wants to cultivate ginseng.
"Please make yourself at home," the ancient ginseng spirit said in an aged voice, then offered a piece of its branch to Lu Xuan.
Afterwards, he obtained the inner elixir of a ten-thousand-year-old ginseng.
Lu Xuan then activated the array and barrier inside the cave, a measure to prevent the opponent from escaping using their innate earth-遁 (earth-遁) technique.
"Alright, the formation has been deactivated. You can leave now."
I hope you can cultivate your inner core again soon. Goodbye.
Upon hearing Lu Xuan's words, the ancient ginseng spirit vanished instantly, leaving only the words, "Thank you for sparing my life. If I had fallen into the hands of other cultivators, I'm afraid I would be dead."
Too.
Only Lu Xuan would spare it a chance of survival. Falling into Lu Xuan's hands is far better than falling into the hands of some other fierce and evil cultivators.
"alright."
It's time for me to go into seclusion and advance my skills.
Lu Xuan closed his eyes.
All the defensive formations in this secret room were activated.
Finally, Ling'er outside transmitted her voice:
"Remember, without my permission, even the Emperor of Yan cannot disturb me, otherwise there would be no use for your Jade Shadow Guards."
Ling'er, who was guarding the secret chamber outside, heard Lu Xuan's words and replied telepathically with a serious expression:
"Don't worry, as long as there is one member of our Jade Shadow Guard, no one will be allowed to disturb your cultivation. After all, without you, I would have been wiped out by the First Prince long ago."
It turns out that Ling'er is the daughter of Chen Qihe, the former Minister of the Great Yan Dynasty.
This person offended Huangfu Lou by accident back then, but in the end, the Second Prince Huangfu Zhan saved Ling'er's life.
"I believe you, Ling'er. When I come out, I will grant you a great opportunity. Perhaps you can advance to the Core Formation stage."
"Really? That's wonderful! Thank you so much, Your Highness. I can never repay your kindness."
Lu Xuan smiled faintly upon hearing this and said:
"Nothing in return is needed. Simply protecting our royal palace is the greatest help you can give me..."
And so, Lu Xuan arranged everything.
He then consumed the ginseng inner pill he held.
…
Soon, the following spring arrived.
At this point, about six or seven months had passed since Lu Xuan took the ginseng inner pill.
That day, several small birds landed above the secret chamber where Lu Xuan was in seclusion, seemingly foraging for food.
Suddenly, Ling'er appeared in a flash.
"Whoosh whoosh"
Several sword strikes followed.
These little birds were killed by Ling'er.
Immediately afterwards, several streaks of black light flew away from the corpses of these birds.
Ling'er wanted to chase after her, but it was too late.
"Hmph, as expected, it's a spirit bird sent by the First Prince and his men, trying to spy on our Second Prince's cultivation. How despicable!"
"Luckily we discovered it in time, otherwise we would have had a hard time explaining to the Second Prince," another shadow guard said fearfully.
At that very moment.
The secret chamber, which had been quiet for more than half a year, was suddenly filled with Lu Xuan's voice, though he was still disguised as the Second Prince:
"It's alright, I've already broken through the nascent stage. Even if the Third Prince and the First Prince join forces, I'm not afraid."
Ling'er and the other shadow guards immediately knelt down with immense joy and said:
"Is that so, Your Highness? This is a joyous occasion. Should we announce it to the entire cultivation world of Great Yan?"
Although the fake infant cultivator is not a true Nascent Soul cultivator, he is still a top-tier expert, one in ten thousand, in the Great Yan cultivation world.
In the entire Great Yan cultivation world, there are only a few hundred beings at the Pseudo-Nascent Soul stage.
There were even fewer Nascent Soul cultivators, only a few dozen.
the next day.
Lu Xuan officially emerged from seclusion.
After a quick wash and some hasty dressing, I finally got ready.
It remains as radiant as ever.
At this moment, Ling'er, the commander of the Jade Shadow Guard, entered and reported:
"Emperor Yan emerged from seclusion three months ago. I don't know why he summoned you today. Perhaps he knows that you have broken through to the Nascent Soul realm. Now you are the prince with the highest cultivation among the dozens of princes."
Upon hearing Ling'er's words, Lu Xuan nodded with a gratified expression.
"Ling'er, you've really worked hard these past six months. Without you leading the Jade Shadow Guards to protect my secret chamber, I might have been assassinated by the First Prince and his men."
As Lu Xuan spoke, he recalled the process of his cultivation over the past six months.
During this period, they also experienced many hardships and difficulties.
On one occasion, he almost had his dantian burst open by the powerful and pure primordial energy of the ten-thousand-year-old ginseng inner elixir.
Fortunately, he also cultivated body-cultivation techniques, making his dantian far stronger than that of ordinary cultivators.
Having narrowly escaped death, and after a long period of refining the boundless primordial energy of the ginseng inner core, he successfully advanced to the Pseudo-Nascent Soul stage.
Ling'er, who was standing nearby, thought for a moment and then asked, "The Crown Prince and the others have repeatedly obstructed your cultivation. Should I lead the sisters of the Jade Shadow Guard to teach them a lesson?"
After hearing Ling'er's suggestion, Lu Xuan pondered for a moment before decisively waving his hand and saying, "No need, you are no match for him."
