(To give a unified response, I've seen many people say that I changed the character. After all, the style of this world is indeed very different from the previous ones. Originally, according to my outline, this world would not have existed.)
Every time I wrote a new world, some people were dissatisfied and urged me to finish it. This led me to cut a lot of plot, resulting in a situation where I didn't have enough words to finish it. So I thought I would start a new chapter.
Actually, I had laid the groundwork for this world, but I was revealing the schemes of the supreme world from another perspective.
Sigh, maybe the style is too different and most people can't get used to it. Everyone says it's a harem novel, but I think the protagonist only has one wife. I didn't plan to write a harem plot, since many people can't accept it, and I don't want to step on any landmines.
Okay, that's all for now. No more filler. Since you don't like fanservice scenes, I'll try not to write any more later.
Towering trees fill the valleys, and cuckoos echo through the mountains.
Life in seclusion is always leisurely.
Li Daoxuan's cultivation level steadily improved.
Time passed.

After a year of secluded cultivation here, he finally broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
With the system's help, as long as his cultivation level doesn't get stuck, he won't encounter any bottlenecks.
Other cultivators need to take Foundation Establishment Pills to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, otherwise the failure rate is extremely high, and even if they take Foundation Establishment Pills, very few succeed.
Big data calculations show that less than 10 out of 100 are accurate.
Moreover, Foundation Establishment Pills are not something low-level cultivators can afford. Basically, any independent cultivator without a background can only afford one pill if they have a great stroke of luck, even if they save up for half a lifetime.
Even after taking it, there is no guarantee of a 100% breakthrough in lifespan extension; this hurdle has killed many independent cultivators.
This is also a result of the spiritual root constitution; those with poor constitutions can only take more to forcefully break through the barriers.
As for why it's so difficult, it's related to the laws of this world.
The higher the world level, the fewer loopholes there are, and the stronger the binding force of the laws on the beings within it.
As a lower realm of the supreme world, you must lay a solid foundation in order to ascend to higher levels.
Once outside this world, without such strong legal constraints, cultivators in the Qi Refining stage can wreak havoc in other realms.
With few spirit stones left, Li Daoxuan was preparing to leave and re-enter the world of cultivation.
Don't be fooled by the fact that he has over 50,000 low-grade spirit stones on him; it's simply not enough. Apart from the spell category, every breakthrough he makes requires at least 100,000 low-grade spirit stones.
In conclusion, he needs to continue making money; he can't just sit around and do nothing.
"Xueqi, have you packed your things? It's time to go."
Li Daoxuan called out into the house.
Lu Xueqi walked out quickly, her face filled with reluctance, and said, "Husband, can we keep this house? After all, we worked so hard to build it, and it's full of our memories."
Li Daoxuan thought for a moment and agreed, "Alright, since you want to keep Xueqi, I will leave a restriction."
The art of talismans and the art of formations have some similarities, with many methods for inscribing restrictions.
Although its strength is not as great as a complete formation, it can still block some miscellaneous things.
In a short while, the barrier was successfully erected.
"Alright, this way, apart from experts at the Golden Core stage and above, no one else can break in. The restriction also has the effect of isolation and concealment, making it difficult for others to discover us."
"Can we go now?"
"Yes, my husband, let's go."
Lu Xueqi nodded happily.
Li Daoxuan smiled and embraced the other person, then began to fly on his sword.
Once one's cultivation reaches the Foundation Establishment stage, their flight speed increases more than tenfold, and their internal magical power becomes incredibly abundant.
......
Fengdu.
"Husband, this is so delicious, you should try some!"
Lu Xueqi brought the steamed bun to his mouth.
Li Daoxuan reluctantly took a bite.
To be honest, it wasn't very good; it wasn't as delicious and juicy as the food I ate in my previous life.
"Hmm, not bad. If you like it, buy more."
"This is enough; we can't eat any more."
Lu Xueqi took a bite of her steamed bun and continued, "By the way, husband, will we be living here from now on?"
Although the spiritual energy is a bit weak, it's full of the warmth and life of everyday life, and I really like it here.
This capital city is clearly a place for mortals, with no cultivators gathered there.
"I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you, my lady. For us cultivators to go far, resources are indispensable. We can't get a lot of spirit stones in the mortal world."
Li Daoxuan shook his head. He had only stopped here because he was tired from flying and wanted to rest for a while.
"Okay, then."
Lu Xueqi was somewhat disappointed. Compared to the quiet and serene cultivation world, she preferred the mortal world, which was full of life and warmth.
After the two had been sightseeing for a while, Li Daoxuan set off again.
Actually, finding places where cultivators gather is very simple. Any place with abundant spiritual energy will inevitably attract cultivators to settle there.
He only needs to fly towards the areas where the spiritual energy is getting denser, and he will always be able to find the places where cultivators are stationed.
......
Qunling—Wanjin Lane.
Two figures landed here.
"Husband, this place is so different from the bamboo forest!"
Lu Xueqi's eyes shone with golden light. The mountains and rivers were beautiful, the scenery was pleasant, the spiritual energy was abundant, and the crowds were surging.
"This place is very nice."
Li Daoxuan was also very satisfied.
The arrival of the two attracted the attention of many cultivators, and many of them cast their divine senses to investigate.
Li Daoxuan unleashed the pressure of his Foundation Establishment realm cultivation, immediately deterring the inquiring individuals from overstepping their bounds.
No matter where you go, strength always determines your voice.
"Let's go and find out what's going on here."
Li Daoxuan said.
He was truly afraid that two more forces would be fighting here, and if that happened, he would rather abandon this place and go somewhere else.
After making some inquiries, Li Daoxuan learned about the situation here.
There was no Wanjin Lane here before; its name comes from a sect located on the mountain ridge.
This blessed land is rich in spiritual energy, and independent cultivators who want to join a sect spontaneously gather here.
As their numbers gradually increased, they carved out a street at the foot of the mountains, which is how Wanjin Lane came to be.
Over the centuries, Wanjin Lane has grown to the size of a city. Perhaps to commemorate the past or as a special landmark, Wanjin Lane has not been renamed.
At first, the independent cultivators were worried that the sect would purge them, since this area was within the sect's territory.
However, the existence of Wan Jin Lane also made it convenient for sect disciples to buy, sell, and acquire materials, which was mutually beneficial, so the sect allowed it to develop as it pleased.
