Gou Zaixiu Immortal World Gets A Wife

Chapter 51: The Secret of "Immortal Qi" (Seeking to Continue Reading)

In July, the scorching sun blazed in the sky.

Since the demonic cultivators entered the Immortal Ruins, those bandit-like demonic cultivators who made a living by plundering had been thoroughly tormented.

After the demonic cultivators entered the Immortal Ruins, instead of attacking the cities with spiritual veins, they rooted the spiritual veins they brought in the desolate wilderness, turning the wasteland into a city of spiritual veins.

As for those demonic cultivators who claimed dominance over the mountains...

Naturally, they could only flee in embarrassment.

Although they were arrogant, they couldn't muster any resistance against the powerful demonic cultivators on the other side, and were thoroughly tormented.

In just a few months, this land where immortals once resided had gradually seen more and more figures of demonic cultivators.

Li Guanxuan was not aware of the changes in the outside world.

During these few months, he had been studying the "Immortal Qi" in the Velvet Flower Spirit Tree, occasionally going to the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion to sell pills and talismans, and also seeking advice on cultivation knowledge from the shopkeeper Liu.

After all, Shopkeeper Liu was a Foundation Building cultivator and had considerable insights into the strange happenings in the cultivation world.

Of course, Li Guanxuan wasn't foolish enough to ask directly. Instead, he subtly inquired for information, integrated the information, and observed the changes in the Immortal Qi.

Li Guanxuan discovered that the Immortal Qi contained complex components, including energy similar to spiritual energy, life force, and three other types of energy...

When these energies entered Li Guanxuan's body after leaving the dark space, they automatically transformed into spiritual energy suitable for Li Guanxuan's cultivation, as well as life force that could prolong his lifespan.

Li Guanxuan attempted to figure out what these three types of energy were.

But when he discreetly inquired about related information from Shopkeeper Liu, Shopkeeper Liu couldn't provide a clear answer. Perhaps only the legendary Immortals would know.

Immortals...

That was something that could only be achieved after Void Refining and returning to the true self.

In the cultivation room, Li Guanxuan's divine sense sank into the dark space.

He watched as the Immortal Qi transformed into a pale white spiritual energy, then transformed into a milky white energy, yellow energy, and green energy...

"This milky white energy should be what is needed after Void Refining and returning to the true self."

Li Guanxuan fell into contemplation.

Qin Jiyue had never actually seen true Immortal Qi, so when she felt that the energy of the Velvet Flower was strange, she called it Immortal Qi.

Moreover, Li Guanxuan also attempted to absorb these three types of energy, but all attempts ended in failure.

His physique couldn't absorb this kind of energy.

If he forcefully absorbed and refined it, his body would crack and he would die at any moment.

Li Guanxuan concluded that these three types of energy might be the "spiritual energy" he would need to cultivate in the future.

Without reaching that realm, his body would be unable to bear it.

In other words, the components of "Immortal Qi" were complex and could be transformed into energy that could be cultivated at the current stage. However, when encountering a bottleneck, he would still need certain pill resources to achieve a breakthrough.

Thinking of this, Li Guanxuan felt a bit bitter in his heart.

Previously, he had always thought that as long as he dual-cultivated, he could become an immortal and achieve the Dao.

But the path of cultivation was never that simple...

Every bottleneck and shackle had to be personally experienced, summarized, and then seek methods to break through.

Only by doing so could one truly become an immortal, achieve longevity, and prove the Dao.

"It would be great to have a system. That way, I wouldn't need to seek methods and resources. I could just dual-cultivate and become an immortal and achieve longevity, saving a lot of troubles and difficulties."

Li Guanxuan sighed deeply in his heart and couldn't help but complain.

Of course, the Velvet Flower Spirit Tree was not bad either. It could at least help him improve his alchemy, talisman, and sword techniques, as well as his spiritual root aptitude.

"Continue to improve the three techniques, especially alchemy. That is the key to whether I can achieve Foundation Building."

Li Guanxuan put aside the many thoughts in his mind and decided to leave the matter of Void Refining for later.

For now, the most important thing was to learn how to refine Foundation Building pills.

After all, he was currently at the seventh level of Qi Refining and needed to make some plans for Foundation Building.

...

On this day, Wen Rongxin finally broke through to the fifth level of Body Refining.

The power of her punch was comparable to that of someone at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

But it was only for that one punch.

The power of the second punch greatly weakened, and the third punch returned to normal.

But for Wen Rongxin, who had a five-element inferior spiritual root, this was already very good.

After all, ten years ago, she was just an ordinary warrior. Now, at the age of twenty-eight, she had reached the fifth level of Body Refining.

"Not bad, not bad. I should be able to last four hours tonight." Li Guanxuan smiled and embraced Wen Rongxin.

"Hu...husband..."

Wen Rongxin was both happy and annoyed. She couldn't argue with him, so she could only poke his waist with her index finger.

At this time, Qin Jiyue, disguised as "Qin Wuji," returned from outside, injured and with blood at the corners of her mouth.

Even the explosive boy she took with her was also somewhat injured.

Li Guanxuan and Wen Rongxin hurriedly went up to support Qin Jiyue.

"What happened?" Li Guanxuan asked.

"Sis...sister, where are you injured? Husband, go buy some healing pills first." Wen Rongxin expressed her concern while speaking to Li Guanxuan.

"It's nothing, sister. I just suffered some minor injuries. It's nothing serious. I just need to rest for a month." Qin Jiyue's face turned pale, but she managed to smile weakly.

Li Guanxuan carried her horizontally and walked towards the side room, gently placing her on the bed and infusing her with a lot of spiritual energy.

A month ago, the Demon Clan established a second-level spiritual vein city called Silver Maple City, two thousand miles northwest of Shanggu City.

As a cultivator of the Demon Clan, Qin Jiyue needed a Foundation Building technique, so she left a message and traces there, hoping that her older brother, Qin Wuji, could contact her.

She also planned to buy the main materials and auxiliary medicines for Foundation Building pills from there.

After all, things there were half the price compared to Shanggu City.

After Qin Jiyue recovered a little, she said, "I encountered a battle between cultivators on the way. There were demonic cultivators and evil cultivators. After pretending to be defeated and escaping, I was able to come back."

"Maybe... maybe we should buy the materials and auxiliary medicines for Foundation Building pills in Shanggu City. There are rampant attacks from rogue cultivators and battles between demonic and evil cultivators outside. It's safer in the city," Wen Rongxin said worriedly.

Qin Jiyue explained, "Sister, there are several types of auxiliary medicines for Foundation Building pills that are not available in Shanggu City. They are only abundant in the Northern Lu Continent, so we can only buy them from the Spirit City established by the Demon Clan."

Upon hearing this, Wen Rongxin couldn't help but sigh.

She also knew that Qin Jiyue was worried that her husband wouldn't be able to complete Foundation Building before the age of sixty, so she had been searching for various heavenly treasures and earth treasures that could break through bottlenecks for Li Guanxuan during this time.

This included the medicinal materials for refining Foundation Building pills.

After all, although Qin Jiyue was currently at the eighth level of Qi Refining, her combat power was comparable to that of a peak ninth level Qi Refining cultivator. Coupled with the explosive boy and the second-level flying boat, they wouldn't encounter too much danger when going out.

But who could have expected that they would encounter a battle between demonic and evil cultivators?

"By the way, husband, I saw the Sect Master of the Mountain of Joyful Bliss in Silver Maple City," Qin Jiyue said. "It seems that he is regaining his strength there and planning to retake Azure Serenity City."

Li Guanxuan was stunned for a moment. The Sect Master of the Mountain of Joyful Bliss had actually gone to the Demon Clan's Spirit City?
