Chapter Seven: What's so special about master-disciple dual cultivation?
Han Wei reached out and took it. She didn't initially think much of it, after all, she had already reached the Tribulation Transcending stage in her previous life. Although she was currently only at the Foundation Establishment stage, she remained proud, until she turned to the first page of the cultivation manual and saw the words written on it:
The power of all things in the universe.
Those five words felt like a sharp sword piercing her.
Shock stirred up a storm within her.
This technique is top-tier even in the Upper Realm, and it is little known to most people.
How could he have that?
Who exactly is he?
She used this technique when she absorbed the life force of the Jade Dragon Fruit Tree before, did he see it?
Han Wei was instantly filled with fear of the man in front of her.
"You should cultivate this technique diligently. Once you reach the Nascent Soul stage, you can cultivate with me," Gu Qi said with a smile.
What? Dual cultivation!
He actually wanted to use himself as a furnace!
Han Wei immediately harbored murderous intent towards the person in front of her.
In the cultivation world, it's not uncommon for people to use the guise of dual cultivation to exploit others and use them as a furnace for cultivation.
Han Wei's Wood Spirit Body belongs to the top-tier furnace cauldron category. She is not only a top-tier furnace cauldron, but also a walking living elixir. In her previous life, after going to the Great Realm, every time she exposed her Wood Spirit Body, countless people wanted to harvest her essence or throw her into their alchemy furnaces to refine her into elixirs.
When the other party mentioned "dual cultivation," Han Wei automatically translated it as "absorption and replenishment."
To Han Wei, what he just said meant: "Once you reach the Nascent Soul stage, I will take your essence."
He took her as his disciple and then wanted her to cultivate with him?
Han Wei cursed him in her heart as a pervert.
"Master, I am your disciple."
"What's so special about master-disciple dual cultivation?" Gu Qi said indifferently.
Han Wei: "..."
It seems he's right. After all, compared to the casual killing and plundering of treasures and the annihilation of entire families in the cultivation world, it seems that dual cultivation between master and disciple is really nothing special.
In her past life, she had witnessed countless instances of couples turning against each other, siblings killing each other, fathers abandoning their sons and sons laughing at each other, and people betraying their masters and ancestors.
Betraying one's teacher and ancestors, betraying one's teacher and ancestors.
Looking at the man in front of her, Han Wei thought of Xie Yun again. He betrayed his master and ancestors. She didn't have the chance to do it in her past life, but she had to do it at least twice in this life.
Han Wei: "Master, I am the daughter of your old friend. You even held me when I was little."
Gu Qi laughed and said, "Your father and I did have a friendship, but we later became enemies. I treated him as a friend, but he actually lied to me. It really broke my heart."
The man sighed as he spoke, looking heartbroken.
"The sins of the father are to be repaid by the son, so you shall repay the debt! Besides, I just saved your life. It's not too much to repay this life-saving grace with your body, is it?" He looked at Han Wei with a faint smile. "Cultivating with me will also benefit you, so you don't need to resist so much."
Dual cultivation between low-level and high-level cultivators does indeed have significant advantages, provided the other person is genuinely committed to it. However, if the other person has ulterior motives, you're essentially at their mercy. Even if they agree to dual cultivation, what can you do if they change their mind and use you as a vessel to drain your life force?
Han Wei didn't believe a single word Gu Qi said. She planned to kill him once she reached the Nascent Soul stage.
Having almost been used as a vessel for sexual exploitation several times in her past life, Han Wei hates anyone who wants to use her as a vessel.
The airship continued to fly forward at an extremely high speed.
There were rooms on the airship, and Gu Qi told Han Wei to find a room to rest, which Han Wei gladly accepted. After flying for about three days, the airship arrived at a sea area. Han Wei, who had been cultivating for three days, came out of her room and onto the deck.
On the deck, Gu Qi stood against the wind, his clothes fluttering, looking absolutely stunning.
Han Wei looked at him, then looked around. The vast sea stretched to the horizon, with a blue sky, a blue ocean, and countless small islands scattered across the water.
As Han Wei felt the sea breeze, she spread her divine sense in all directions and realized where she was. This was the South China Sea in the Southern Region.
The airship flew towards a place that was an extremely desolate island.
At first, the island looked like an empty wasteland with hardly any weeds. But when the flying boat arrived above the island, it suddenly saw a surge of spiritual light, and countless restrictive runes, like stars, connected to form magic arrays.
Then the surrounding scenery changed, and in the blink of an eye, the deserted island transformed into a blessed land full of spiritual energy and beautiful peaks.
Han Wei was slightly surprised: there was actually such a small island full of spiritual energy in the South China Sea.
Han Wei glanced at the man in white beside her, then looked down at the island that was getting closer and closer. Her gaze fell on a tall stone monument on the island.
A towering stone tablet, hundreds of feet tall, bears three large characters: Chang Le Island.
————
It wasn't until more than ten days after Han Wei left the Qingyun Sect that Su Rumei and the others noticed something was wrong.
The bombing of Fire Spirit Peak resulted in numerous deaths and injuries, leaving everyone overwhelmed and in a state of chaos. While treating the wounded, they went to Apricot Forest Peak, only to discover someone impersonating Song Xuan to swindle medicine, creating further disorder. It wasn't until more than ten days later that they realized Xue Ran was missing.
They searched everywhere for Xue Ran, and finally found Xue Ran's body in the secret room where Han Wei was imprisoned; it was already decomposing.
"Aaaaaaahh ...
Upon seeing Xue Ran's body, Su Rumei screamed and was caught by Song Xuan from behind.
Fang Jingbai stared at the corpse in disbelief.
"Third junior brother, how... how could this be..." Fang Jingbai's voice trembled.
Who was it? Who killed my third junior brother?
"Third Senior Brother..." Tears welled up in Su Rumei's dazed eyes. Leaning against Song Xuan's chest, she looked at Xue Ran's corpse, shed a few tears, and said, "Where is Fourth Senior Sister? Where is Fourth Senior Sister?"
Fang Jingbai and Song Xuan's expressions changed drastically; Han Wei had fled.
Han Wei not only escaped, but she also killed her third junior brother.
Song Xuan released Su Rumei and went to examine Xue Ran's body. After he finished examining it, he said coldly, "It was a fatal blow, piercing through the heart. Han Wei is only at the tenth level of Qi Refining, while Third Junior Brother is already at the thirteenth level of Qi Refining. She must have ambushed him to kill him."
What a vicious and despicable woman! All I did was take a little blood from her, and she actually killed me.
Fang Jingbai recalled Xue Ran's unusual behavior the last time he saw her here. His mind cleared instantly, and he said:
"It's her, it's her. When I came here last time, I saw Han Wei lying unconscious on the ground, and my third junior brother was standing there. Then my third junior brother went out with me, but the one who went out with me wasn't my third junior brother."
"It's her, it's Han Wei. That's not Third Junior Brother!"
Fang Jingbai was immediately filled with regret. Why hadn't he recognized Han Wei back then?
"You mean she tricked you with illusions?" Song Xuan asked in shock.
Transformation techniques are extremely rare in the Yunlan Realm, and many Core Formation stage cultivators have never even heard of them. Therefore, Song Xuan thought that Han Wei had used illusion techniques to deceive his second junior brother.
