Eternal Life Begins with Taking a Wife

Chapter 65: Confidence

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

A few days later, the aura in the quiet room calmed down.

Shen Ping opened his eyes without any emotions. He slowly got up and paced around. He only stopped after going back and forth more than ten times. Then, he flicked his sleeve and took a big step. He walked out of the quiet room with a smile bloomed on his face.

In the past, a late-stage Qi Refinement cultivator in Red Willow Alley was enough to intimidate the robbers. At this moment, he had also become such a cultivator.

Outside the meditation room, his wife and concubines were all waiting. They knew that their husband was taking the first small threshold of cultivation. If he could cross it, there was hope for him to build his foundation in the future.

When Shen Ping came out, they instantly looked over. Yu Yan’s eyes lit up and her lips revealed joy. She cupped her hands and bowed. “Congratulations on stepping into the late-stage of Qi Refinement!”

Her voice was loud and powerful. As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Yun ran over excitedly and bumped into Shen Ping’s arms. “Congratulations, husband. Congratulations, husband. That’s great. You’re a late-stage Qi Refinement cultivator!”

Bai Yuying walked up excitedly and hugged Shen Ping’s arm. She shook it and said, “Congratulations on breaking through!”

…..

Shen Ping hugged his wife and concubine and looked at Luo Qing with a smile. A rare smile appeared on Luo Qing’s face. “Congratulations, husband, on becoming a late-stage Qi Refinement cultivator.”

Shen Ping laughed out loud. He waved his hand. “We have to celebrate today.”

His wife’s cheeks flushed. Bai Yuying said coquettishly, “Husband, you’re too bad. You just broke through and you’re already thinking about that.”

Luo Qing was stunned, and then she was completely speechless. He had only stopped for a few days… and her legs were going to go numb again. Yu Yan secretly rolled her eyes, but there was anticipation in the corners of her eyes.

“Ahem.” Shen Ping coughed a few times and said seriously, “What are you thinking about? 1 mean to go to the market to buy some high-grade spirit beast meat, rare spirit fruits, and spirit wine to celebrate.” With that, he clapped his hands. “Alright, do what you have to do.”

Not long after, he and Yu Yan left Yunhe Alley. He stepped onto the main street of the market again and looked at the cultivators coming and going.

Shen Ping’s mentality was slightly different.

Not only did the late-stage Qi Refinement Realm bring about a surge in spiritual energy, but it also increased his confidence and sense of security. The most obvious example was a high-grade defensive artifact. With the spiritual energy in his dantian and meridians, it was enough to last for a short while.

If he fought with cultivators of the same level, even if he did not use the Spirit Protection Talisman, the other party would not be able to deal with him in a short period of time. Even cultivators at the ninth level of Qi Refinement were the same.

Apart from that, after the increase in spiritual energy, the number of high-level talismans made every month would increase. Moreover, after this breakthrough, his divine sense had also increased a lot. He was not far from the Foundation Establishment Realm. Once he could make a Level Two talismans, his cultivation life would change greatly in the future.

However, this was only secondary. Most importantly, after advancing to the seventh level of Qi Refinement, he could officially obtain the guest token of the True Treasure Pavilion.

As his thoughts drifted, Yu Yan rubbed her shoulder against Shen Ping and said with a smile, “Fellow Daoist Shen, come back to your senses. We’ve arrived at the True Treasure Pavilion.”

Shen Ping smiled and walked into the True Treasure Pavilion. He saw Shopkeeper Ding. The other party could tell at a glance that he had broken through. He congratulated him and said, “I will immediately inform the Foundation Establishment Guests. There will be news in less than three days.”

Shen Ping cupped his hands and smiled. “Thank you, Shopkeeper Ding.”

The distribution of the guest wooden token required three Foundation Establishment guests to bear witness. If nothing went wrong, they would be the Foundation Establishment Talisman Masters who had judged his assessment last time.

He didn’t ask Mu Jin to come down.

He quickly left and went to the market with Yu Yan to buy spirit beast meat and other living ingredients. In fact, most low-level rogue cultivators rarely bought spirit beast meat and luxurious ingredients like rare treasures. Shen Ping had no choice but to maintain this spirit stone consumption every day.

If they did not eat to replenish their energy, as time passed, the bodies and minds of his wife and concubines would not be able to withstand it.

Of course, Shen Ping did not intend to save on this.

Cultivation was already very boring, and he did not go out often. Without this hobby, how much mental pressure would he have?

When he was buying spirit wine, they bumped into Fellow Daoist Mu in Room

The shop was only so big. Shen Ping could not pretend not to see it and could only cup his hands in greeting. “Senior Mu.”

Mu Yushuang’s eyes swept over. Just as she was about to tease him, her expression changed slightly and she said in surprise, “Talisman Master Shen, did you break through?”

“I was lucky.” Shen Ping replied.

Mu Yushuang clicked her tongue in wonder. “Talisman Master Shen’s cultivation speed is really quite fast. In just a few years, you have continuously broken through several small realms. It’s admirable. If this continues, won’t you be in Foundation Establishment in a few years?”

Shen Ping hurriedly said, “1 just took more medicinal pills and spirit liquid, so my advancement speed will be a little fast. 1 still have something to do at home, so I’ll take my leave first.”

Mu Yushuang was stunned on the spot. After a while, she came back to her senses. “The spirit liquid from the True Treasure Pavilion’s auction? This is too extravagant!” As she muttered, her eyes revealed a dazzling light as she quickly chased after him. Unfortunately, when she looked around, there was no one. “Hmph, he could even touch the co-renter. I don’t believe he doesn’t want me when I send myself to him!”

At dawn the next day, the familiar unique petal fragrance filled the air again.

Shen Ping frowned. Although Yu Yan would occasionally bring a few members to the Cloud Mountain Swamp to collect petals after establishing a hunting team and did not have to worry about making pollen, the number of times they suppressed the charm fire had increased in the past few months.

He walked into the main room. Yu Yan was very familiar with her actions. After the white snake puppet finished absorbing the steam, he could not help but ask, “Will it affect you?”

Yu Yan’s robe slipped off, and under her single gauze dress was mandarin duck powder. She soaked in the wooden bucket and said with a smile, “Fellow Daoist Shen, don’t worry. I used to take a bath every day to suppress it. This time, the newly concocted pollen will be even more effective.”

As she spoke, she stretched out her toes and pinched a strand of black hair with her fingers. She bit it gently at the corner of her lips and said with a faint smile, “It’s only once today. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Shen’s Dao technique strength has improved after these few days of seclusion?”

Shen Ping’s expression darkened. As the robe danced in the air, the figure had already pounced on her.

Two days passed.

Shopkeeper Ding sent a message for him to make a trip to the True Treasure Pavilion. Even though he was mentally prepared, Shen Ping could not help but feel excited. He seriously asked his wife to help him brush his hair and pray in the talisman making room. After doing all of this, he brought Yu Yan out of the house.

Swoosh.

He had just closed the door. Not far away, a shadow flashed through the wooden window, accompanied by the sound of bells.

Shen Ping knew that it was Chen Ying, but his expression was very calm. His divine sense in the late-stage Qi Refinement Realm increased. His resistance to charm techniques had increased greatly. As long as he was vigilant, the chances of him being hit by this demoness again would decrease.

Besides, Yu Yan was by his side.

“Talisman Master Shen has broken through to the seventh level of Qi Refinement. It’s indeed different.” Chen Ying smiled and said, “I’m leaving Yunhe Alley in a few months. Talisman Master Shen, you said you wanted to give me a gift as a neighbor. Don’t forget about it then.”

With that, she left.

This surprised Shen Ping a little, but his expression quickly changed. Chen Ying’s voice transmission sounded in his ear. “Talisman Master Shen, that Fellow Daoist Yu beside you has a special physique, right? Continuous sex is not a good thing for her… If you have the time, you can come to my house to discuss.”

Yu Yan noticed Shen Ping’s expression and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Shen Ping shook his head and smiled. “Nothing. Let’s go.”

This demoness might have long seen through Yu Yan’s physique, and she could tell what he was thinking.

However, he would not fall for it..
