Before getting married, Ning Yuyao had been living on the mountain for a total of eight years.
It took him less than two years to refine Qi and condense his Qi Palace. Then, because of his rapid progress, he was noticed by a big shot in the Guanghan Palace and was directly taken into the inner sect.
After arriving in Tianshan, Ning Yuyao lived up to her reputation as a genius.
Six months for a copper skin, one year for an iron body, and two and a half years for a profound soul!
At that time, Ning Yuyao was only sixteen years old, and then she began to settle down and break through to the Soul Condensation Realm.
It took him about three years to go down the mountain to get married two years later and then go back up the mountain to break through the Soul Condensation Technique with the help of the Spirit Spring.
In other words, the process of going from the Profound Soul to the Condensed Soul is much more difficult than the tenth level of Qi Refining!
Shen Yunhao only spent half a day before he began to notice something.
After breaking through to the Profound Soul Realm, the Qi Palace seemed to become a bottomless pit. No matter how much spiritual energy was refined into it, no one could feel any increase in cultivation level.
"This is even with milk tea involved. Without milk tea, whether I can break through to the Soul Condensation stage within five years is truly an unknown..."
Shen Yunhao tapped the cat's nose and said reproachfully, "You've had your fun, but I still have to go see that big shot..."
Just then, a sword's cry suddenly came from the sky above the house.
"Oh wow, speak of the devil and he appears!"
If it were anyone else, they certainly wouldn't have made that sound; it was clearly Ning Yuyao giving him a hint.
"Quick! Milk Tea, hide! Don't let anyone see you, or they'll catch you and turn you into cat pancakes!"
Upon hearing this, Milk Tea transformed into a fat cat with a bang and scurried under the bed.
A moment later, Shen Yunhao walked out of the door and saw Nie Qingshuang landing in the courtyard.
This should be the first time that Shen Yunhao has faced Ning Yuyao, his master, up close. Even though they have never met before, he can guess that this Qingyou Palace Master has quite a lot of opinions about him...
The woman, dressed in a deep blue palace gown, stood tall and dignified in the courtyard, exuding an air of heroism and majesty. Her eyes were cold, like the water of a frozen pool, making people afraid to look directly at her.
They are the complete opposites of Lingyue Zhenren.
Ji Lingyue gives people the feeling of the warm spring sun, exuding a gentle and warm feeling everywhere.
Nie Qingshuang, on the other hand, possessed an imposing aura that inspired inexplicable fear.
"Junior Shen Yunhao greets Palace Master Nie!"
Shen Yunhao glanced at Ning Yuyao following behind Nie Qingshuang, then lowered his head and bowed respectfully.
With Yao'er present, he would feel much more at ease facing Nie Qingshuang...
"Um……"
Nie Qingshuang's tone was calm, revealing no emotion.
"A twenty-year-old Xuanpo Realm cultivator... I must admit, I underestimated you back then. With such talent, you certainly have the qualifications to be Yao'er's husband!"
Shen Yunhao's eyes stung, and he almost burst into tears.
Heaven rewards those who persevere. After working so hard for so long, am I finally qualified to be my wife's husband?
Ning Yuyao frowned, about to speak, but Nie Qingshuang interrupted, "But it's no use saying these things now. Whether you're qualified or not, you've already taken advantage of me. Can you give it back?"
"..."
Ning Yuyao quickly lowered her head, her face flushed, and remained silent.
Oh... how can you put it so bluntly!
However, Shen Yunhao sensed something amiss.
Return it?
Could Nie Qingshuang be referring to the good fortune Ning Yuyao bestowed upon her on their wedding night?
Ahem... I'm not talking about that, but rather the improved physical constitution!
"Never mind, let's not talk about that! I heard you're going down the mountain?"
Finally getting down to business, Shen Yunhao nodded and said, "Yes, this junior would like to go home for a visit."
"One trip? Not a one-way trip?"
“Of course not…” Shen Yunhao scratched his head, “I’m still learning the Dao of Spirit Arrays from Master Lingyue of Quyou Palace, and I finally gained her approval…”
"whispering sound……"
But Nie Qingshuang gave a cold laugh, "Ji Lingyue is considerably older than me!"
"???"
What...what does that mean?
Shen Yunhao felt a sudden tremor in his heart, but then he heard Nie Qingshuang continue, "With her talent, her cultivation level wouldn't be any worse than mine! But she insisted on cultivating the Dao of Spirit Arrays. What good is it if she ends up like this? As long as her cultivation level doesn't reach the Void Realm, the spirit arrays she sets up will be very limited!"
"..."
Shen Yunhao breathed a sigh of relief.
That startled me; I thought I'd been found out...
So Guan Yingying's hierarchy of contempt originated from you.
"And your snakeskin mother-in-law! Instead of focusing on her cultivation, she insists on getting involved in all sorts of romantic entanglements. Otherwise, her cultivation level would definitely be at least at the Void Realm... If she had the Void Realm cultivation level now, all those messy affairs in the North Sea harem wouldn't be a problem at all!"
Mei Yu'er: "..."
Snake-skin mother-in-law! Physically speaking, it's actually perfectly normal!
However, in this temple master's eyes, it's as easy as reaching the Void Realm; anyone can do that.
And were these words directed at Shen Yunhao or Yao'er?
They were probably scolding him, since he not only planned to learn spirit arrays, but also got involved in a lot of romantic relationships...
It's much better than Ning Yuyao's level.
"Fine, since you've already reached the Profound Soul Realm, I'll keep my word and let you go down the mountain... But before that, I need to confirm how much of your Profound Soul Realm is genuine!"
Shen Yunhao was stunned upon hearing this, and looked at Ning Yuyao with a puzzled expression.
That's not right, this wasn't mentioned beforehand.
However, Ning Yuyao gave him a reassuring look, indicating that the exam wouldn't be too difficult.
“I specially obtained a spirit puppet from the Qu You Palace. Its strength is comparable to the weakest Xuan Po Realm cultivator. If you can defeat it, I will not say anything more. Come with me!”
Nie Qingshuang walked ahead, and Shen Yunhao lowered his voice to ask the little girl beside him.
"What the hell is this spirit puppet?"
"It's just a dummy engraved with a spirit array and driven by spiritual energy! Although this spirit puppet has the combat power of a profound soul, it's quite clumsy. Yao'er was able to defeat it when she was in the Iron Bone Realm, so Brother Yunhao doesn't need to worry too much!"
"..."
So that's why Ning Yuyao was able to challenge opponents of higher levels—she was fighting this thing...
Thinking of this, Shen Yunhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After a while...
"Choo choo choo!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Shen Yunhao spun around twice in the air before crashing to the ground. He then stared wide-eyed at Ning Yuyao, who was watching the battle from a distance.
So... this is what you mean by "simple"? He really is the weakest Xuanpo Realm cultivator?
Ning Yuyao lowered her head, unable to bear looking at him.
Shen Yunhao took a deep breath, got up, and charged at the wooden dummy once again.
Seeing this, Ning Yuyao bit her lip and said to Nie Qingshuang beside her, "Why did Master try to fool Brother Yunhao? This spirit puppet is clearly not at the early stage of the Profound Soul Realm. It's too unfair to Brother Yunhao, who just broke through to the Profound Soul Realm a few days ago!"
However, Nie Qingshuang's expression remained unchanged.
"Do you think anyone would talk to him about fairness once he leaves the Tianshan Mountains?"
