Chapter 168: Change

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the quiet room on a futon embroidered with silver threads. Shen Ping sat cross-legged. The B-rank core was related to restricted resources. The bronze strange beast pattern blood in his body was such a resource.

If he could exchange it with contribution points, his wife and concubines’ cultivation speed would be much faster in the future. They would not even be limited by their spiritual root apt.i.tude. However, without Perfected Yun Ya’s guidance, it was not easy for him to master the last six special spirit runes in the remaining thirteen years.

Even if he successfully mastered it, he still had to comprehend the first four volumes of the Green Talisman Sutra and the second volume of the Talisman Beast Scripture.

All of this would take time.

Originally, his hopes were relatively low. Now that he didn’t have Perfected Yun Ya’s guidance, it was almost impossible for him to break through to the B-grade core on his first try.

“If the first time doesn’t work, then the second time, the third time… As long as I work hard, 1 will definitely succeed!” Shen Ping did not feel too discouraged or disappointed. Even though he would have the right to exchange for additional high-grade restricted resources if he could directly break through during the headquarters’ review and evaluation, he did not care much.

Because to him, it was enough as long as he had the qualifications to buy it. However, this matter reminded Shen Ping that everything outside did not belong to him. He shook his head and suppressed his emotions.

He opened the virtual interface.

Indeed, another silver frame appeared.

Shen Ping revealed a gratified expression. Previously, when Perfected Qiu’s favorability kept rising, he could tell that Perfected Qiu was an emotional and grateful Golden Core senior. Now, it seemed like that was indeed the case.

The favor of a drop of water had already been repaid.

He composed himself. He glanced at the silver frame. The dual cultivation bonus increased by several times, and there was also a silver bonus. This meant that in the future, every time he had s.e.x with Perfected Qiu, he would gain more.

But now, there was only an ordinary frame left on the entire virtual interface.

Yin Honglian.

She was the only Foundation Establishment cultivator among his wives and concubines. Shen Ping could not help but think of the fiery b.u.t.terfly. It was small and exquisite.

However, until now, the other party’s favorability had not exceeded 90. He did not take this to heart. After all, after his physique transformed into the Jade Bone Body, the number of times he had dual cultivated with his wives and concubines had long returned to normal.

He was no longer in a hurry to fight Foundation Establishment Cultivators. In the future, when he was free, he would spend time accompanying Yin Honglian. Then, his gaze swept over. It landed on the virtual frame that belonged to Bai Yuying and Yu Yan. The s.h.i.+ning silver beside the frame had not moved for a long time.

Bai Yuying was secondary. But Yu Yan…

Shen Ping sighed faintly. After Foundation Establishment, his care and companions.h.i.+p towards Yu Yan had decreased a little. Although he had made up for it recently, there were some things that could not be made up for.

His wives and concubines all had their own thoughts. And these thoughts would change with time and strength. He could not control these. He could only wait sincerely. As for the outcome, he could not predict it.

The moment he put away the virtual interface, he saw some changes, as if a page had appeared on the virtual interface.

Whoosh.

The virtual interface in his eyes appeared again. Shen Ping took a closer look. He could not help but shudder.

The virtual interface actually changed!

He took a deep breath. He flipped the page in the attribute box and quickly saw the second page. There were lines of golden words on it.

[Purple Wishes: I hope Husband can cultivate smoothly every day. (Unsatisfied)]

[Golden Wish: I want to build my foundation as soon as possible and accompany my husband for a long time. (Unsatisfied)]

[Silver Wish: Foundation Establishment, I must build my foundation! (Unsatisfied)]

[Silver Wish: I really want to break through to the late-stage of Qi Refinement. When the time comes, I can use the Snow Ganoderma Pill and the Spirit Jade Ginseng Ointment. (Unsatisfied)]

[…]

Seeing this, Shen Ping understood. The seven lines of words were the wishes of his wife and concubines. Although he did not know what would happen if he fulfilled these wishes, since it appeared on the virtual frame, it was definitely extraordinary.

However, he soon revealed a helpless expression. More than half of his wife and concubines’ wishes were to build their foundation quickly and accompany him better. Although this made Shen Ping quite gratified, he could not satisfy them at this stage.

However, through these wishes, he could tell that his wives and concubines were still affected by his Foundation Establishment and the increase in his status. This was inevitable. It was just that in the past, Shen Ping was only guessing. Now, he had confirmation.

Half a month later, Shen Ping and Pei Huoyu arrived at Perfected Yun Ya’s spirit vein cave abode on a cloud boat. Outside the pavilion, Perfected Yun Ya stood on a mountain rock and looked at the magnificent river in the distance.

Hearing footsteps, his gentle voice sounded, “Initially, 1 had asked Perfected Linhai to play chess here and enjoy the river scenery. Now, I’m going to miss my appointment. Junior Sister Huoyu, I’m afraid it will be difficult to see this Linhai Immortal City again when 1 return.”

As he spoke, he turned to look at Shen Ping. “The key to mastering the last six special spirit runes of the ‘Basic Talisman Scripture’ lies in better control of the balance. It’s a pity that I didn’t see Talisman Master Shen cultivate successfully with my own eyes. It’s a pity.”

“I will remember Senior Yun Ya’s guidance.” As Shen Ping spoke, he bowed. This kowtow was almost equivalent to half a master-disciple ceremony. Pei Huoyu did not stop him.

Perfected Yun Ya laughed. He waved his sleeve and gently supported Shen Ping with his magic power. “Talisman Master Shen, although I can’t continue to guide you, it’s not difficult for you to master the last six with your talent. It’ll just take more time.

“As for the doubts you might encounter when comprehending the Green Talisman Sutra and the problems you need to pay attention to, I’ve already recorded them all in the jade slip. When you encounter a bottleneck in your cultivation, you can read it at any time.”

Shen Ping bowed again. Suddenly, Perfected Yun Ya shook his head and sighed. “That Talisman Dao genius in the headquarters has already mastered the second volume of the Talisman Beast Scripture. Against such a genius, it’s very difficult for Junior Sister Huoyu to obtain the support of Mountain Fire Hall. There’s nothing I can do either. Therefore, Talisman Master Shen, you’ll have to rely on yourself from now on! Do you still remember what 1 once said was the most important thing for a Talisman Master?”

Shen Ping said in a low voice, “Be patient.”

“Remember this.” The moment Perfected Yun Ya said that, beams of light shot into the sky and quickly disappeared.

Shen Ping looked at the location of the mountain rock. It was as if Perfected Yun Ya was still standing there. Pei Huoyu walked up to Shen Ping. Her natural curves were clearly visible under the warm sun. Every undulating arc of the light armor was exceptionally alluring. She did not say anything and allowed Shen Ping to size her up without any scruples.

Until he looked away, Pei Huoyu’s lips parted slightly. “Some geniuses are very difficult to look up to. Fellow Daoist Shen, you don’t have to take it to heart. Just do your best. Since you can’t do it the first time, let’s do it the second time. No matter what, as your Dao Protector, I will do my best to help you.”

Shen Ping thanked her seriously. Pei Huoyu continued, “The Linhai Immortal City is very safe. For the next 13 years, cultivate here in peace.”

The two of them did not stay in the spirit vein cave abode. They stepped onto the cloud boat and left.

In April, the fragrance of flower petals wafted in the Linhai Immortal City. This fragrance could actually calm one’s mind, making Shen Ping think of the special smell on Fellow Daoist Yu’s body. It seemed to be this fragrance that had a calming effect.

On the same day that the fragrance filled the entire immortal city, the wishes that there had no movement quietly changed.

[Silver Wish: A strange flower fragrance. If I can use it to concoct pollen to bathe, I should be able to quickly calm down and cultivate.]

He saw Yu Yan’s wish. Shen Ping’s eyes lit up. Then, he sent a message to Elder Qi.

“This is the fragrance of a flower called the Mange Spirit Gra.s.s on the spiritual peak where Perfected Linhai lives..”
