Chapter 85: Strange Fighting Spirit
Not long after.
Yu Xian spent 100 spirit stones on the dowry and then invited Zhao Guanshi, Zhao Shiwen's mother, and the couple next door, Wang Jie, to have a meal at No. 44 courtyard. This officially marked Zhao Shiwen's entrance into the family.
The whole process was simple.
After all, she was just a concubine, and Yu Xian didn't know many people. There was no need to make it too grand to entertain guests and collect betrothal gifts. He didn't even need to recover the expenses.
Having another woman in his life was just like having a slightly bigger bed at home for Yu Xian.
Life remained as calm as ever.
After all, Yu Xian didn't have much pressure in cultivation, and his income was still decent. If it weren't for hearing that the miss from the club had come up with something new, he wouldn't even want to go out.
Every day, he spent most of his energy comprehending cultivation techniques, studying formation inheritance, and researching new wines.
On the other hand, his newly acquired concubine couldn't sit still.
Within two months of entering the family, Zhao Shiwen urged Yulan to open a shop in the shantytown together, pooling their money. They sourced their goods through Zhao Guanshi's channels and earned a dozen or so spirit stones per month, which was more than the pocket money he gave them.
For this, they also borrowed Yu Xian's reputation.
A peak Qi Refining formation master was enough to dominate a piece of the sky in the shantytown.
Yu Xian was also happy to give Yulan something to do as a diversion from her cultivation.
So, he made a special appearance when the shop opened, showing off his formation master skills to intimidate others.
Half a year had passed in the blink of an eye.
...
On this day.
Yu Xian sat under a tree, tasting the wine he had brewed himself.
This wine cost him a full 100 spirit stones to buy. The prescription was called "Hundred Flowers Brew," which explained the method and effects of brewing spirit wine using ninety-nine different spirit flowers.
The main ingredient was a hundred-year-old spirit flower, supplemented with the essence of a hundred flowers and the dew of a spiritual spring. It had to be buried under a spiritual tree and left for three months before it could be opened.
The longer it was buried, the stronger the medicinal power in the wine.
Yu Xian's brewed spirit wine was called "Lingzhi Wine," with the main ingredient being the hundred-year-old Redwood Lingzhi flower.
Redwood Lingzhi was a type of Lingzhi that grew on the Red Flame Wood. It belonged to the fire attribute and could enhance the physique when consumed.
The Redwood Lingzhi flower was a variant of Lingzhi. After consuming it, it had a weak effect of tempering one's magical power.
Of course, Yu Xian was just tasting the flavor of the wine.
This wine was mainly brewed for Yulan.
As a cultivation waste, Yulan found it difficult to pass the Qi Refining bottleneck.
Yu Xian had put a lot of effort into helping Yulan reach the Foundation Building stage.
He was no longer the rookie he used to be, and he was well-informed about the three stages of Foundation Building.
Yulan now practiced both martial arts and magical techniques. Although martial arts true qi was not as powerful as magical power, it had a special effect on enhancing the physical body.
With the assistance of resources, it wouldn't be difficult for Yulan to break through to the late stage of the Innate realm and pass the physical body bottleneck.
As for the magical power bottleneck, Yulan cultivated the intermediate-level technique "Blackwater True Technique." Her magical power was already higher than those who cultivated lower-level techniques. With the help of the spirit wine in the future, it shouldn't be difficult.
The only worry was the divine sense bottleneck.
However, he heard that there was a pill called the "Condensing Perception Pill" that could help cultivators temporarily condense their divine sense and experience the feeling of divine sense in advance.
But this kind of pill that could assist in breaking through the Foundation Building stage was always in high demand and scarce.
Yu Xian had already asked Zhao Guanshi to purchase it through his channels.
If Yulan wanted to cultivate to the peak of Qi Refining, even with his full support, it would still take at least a dozen years. He was just preparing in advance.
Finally, he would add a Foundation Building Pill.
If even with all this, Yulan still couldn't reach Foundation Building...
Then he would get her another one.
With this thought, Yu Xian smacked his lips, feeling that the Lingzhi Wine was a bit sour, probably because it was still too young.
"Yulan, oh Yulan, I've never been this good to myself. I really, I'm crying."
Just at this moment.
The door of the transformed cultivation room in the west wing opened.
Yulan, with her skirt in hand, ran out excitedly.
"Master, I've made a breakthrough!"
After nearly a year of hard cultivation, coupled with Yu Lan's costly feeding of elixirs, she finally broke through to the fifth level of Qi Refining.
If it weren't for the concern of accumulating elixir toxicity, Yu Lan would have let herself soak directly in the medicine jar.
But even so, Yu Lan's progress in cultivation was still as slow as a snail.
On the other hand, Zhao Shiwen, who could only pick up the elixirs that Yu Lan couldn't consume, quietly broke through to the sixth level of Qi Refining while managing the shop.
Yu Xian secretly complained, but his face followed suit with joy, as if coaxing a child.
"Not bad, you're really amazing."
"Here, let me reward you with a drink. This wine took me a lot of effort."
Yu Lan took the wine glass, wrinkled her brow, and drank the wine, involuntarily sticking out her tongue.
"It's so sour! It's so spicy!"
"But you have to drink it. Remember to drink some wine before practicing in the future. It can help temper your mana."
Yu Xian handed a wine gourd to Yu Lan.
This scene suddenly made him feel a bit dazed.
At some point, he seemed to have also given a wine gourd to another woman.
Yu Lan obediently responded and put the wine gourd into her storage bag, then happily skipped out of the door.
"Master, I'm going to tell Shiwen sister about this good news."
"You're going to show off, aren't you?"
Yu Xian shook his head and chuckled.
Ever since Zhao Shiwen entered the house, Yu Lan had been diligently cultivating without needing his encouragement.
According to Yu Lan, Shiwen called her older sister, but her cultivation level was still lower than her younger sister's, making her feel embarrassed to be called older sister.
But she was probably going to be disappointed.
Sure enough, less than an hour later, Yu Lan returned home like a defeated rooster, looking dejected.
"Master, when did Shiwen sister break through to the sixth level of Qi Refining? My cultivation level is lower than hers."
Yu Xian suppressed his laughter and said, "Is that so? Maybe she had been stuck at the fifth level of Qi Refining for a long time before coming to our house, and she just happened to break through."
"Your foundation is weaker, so it's normal for you to temporarily not catch up."
But once you break through another level, you'll catch up to her.
It's not easy to break through the bottleneck of the later stage of Qi Refining."
Hearing this, Yu Lan's eyes brightened, and her fighting spirit surged once again.
"That's right, when I break through again, Shiwen sister will have the same cultivation level as me. Master, I'm going to cultivate."
Yu Lan confidently locked herself in the cultivation chamber, showing a determined attitude of not coming out until she made a breakthrough.
In this scene, Yu Xian felt that it was a stroke of genius to accept Zhao Shiwen as his disciple.
But why didn't Yu Lan have this kind of fighting spirit when Chen Yi and the princess were still here?
Yu Xian pondered for a moment and realized that he still had a long way to go in understanding women.
"Since Yu Lan suddenly became self-motivated, the house has become much quieter. I should raise some small animals."
Yu Xian drank a glass of wine and muttered to himself.
With a thought, a half-green and half-red light shot out from behind him, and with a few bangs, a square pool was dug not far from the tree.
The magic tool had a protective light that would not be contaminated by any dust before the mana was exhausted.
So Yu Xian wasn't worried that the flying sword would touch anything dirty, causing him psychological barriers when nurturing the magic tool with his dantian.
Once the pool was dug, Yu Xian reached out and took out a blue formation disk. This was the Water Ring Formation, a low-grade first-tier formation with a very single effect—it could continuously extract water molecules from the air to create water.
But in the words of cultivators, it was spiritual water.
It happened to be used to supply water to the pool.
With a bang, as the formation disk fell into the center of the pool, four spirit stones fell down and were embedded in the four corners of the pool.
Then, droplets of mist condensed on the formation disk, quickly forming a small water column, and a half rainbow appeared in the air.
The pool gradually filled with water.
