Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 468: Xianjin Realm

Since all of them had learned the soul cultivation path, Zhang Long and the others could clearly see the movement of Yin Qi from the eight women into Zhang Feiʼs soul, and they poured their Yin Qi in without restricting themselves.

Unlike them, Zhang Fei had to divide his Yang Qi for the eight of them, and his eight women were still not used to using such a method, so he did it carefully and slowly so as not to injure them. Fortunately, his talent and control exceeded those of other cultivators, including the senior cultivators watching them, so he didnʼt have too much trouble with it.

For several minutes, Zhang Fei kept restraining himself from channeling his Yang Qi into their souls too quickly, but he kept increasing the amount to allow their souls to adjust to it.

The eight women did not remain silent and kept circulating their husbandʼs Yang Qi throughout their souls, and they did it faster every time Zhang Fei increased the amount of his Yang Qi that entered their souls, making the circulation of his Yang Qi in their souls faster.

The senior cultivators immediately looked at the top of Zhang Fei and the others, especially since a huge transparent Yin-Yang diagram began to form there, indicating that his plan for his eight women was beginning to bear fruit.

ʼI think only that kid can do something like that in this universe.ʼ

Liu Rong nodded slightly at Zhang Long, who whispered to her. ʼHis talent for cultivation is indeed remarkable! He has only studied soul cultivation for three days, but he can already help his eight women improve their souls at once, and his own soul power has also increased by two levels in three days.ʼ

ʼAfter all, his third clone lives in the Wasteland Realm now, and he also told us there were two strong cultivators who assisted him to increase his soul power, so it is natural that his soul power can increase by two levels in a short time.ʼ A glimmer of envy flashed in Liu Mingʼs eyes, but he hurriedly suppressed his feelings, especially since Zhang Fei was both his brother-in-law and nephew-in-law.

ʼYouʼre wrong about that.ʼ Ziʼer expressed her disagreement with Liu Mingʼs remarks. ʼWhether you want to admit it or not, Zhang Feiʼs talent in cultivation has indeed surpassed us. It is true that two powerful cultivators assist him, and their assistance has been a boon to him.

However, itʼs important to keep in mind the number of young people we have assisted in the past, and the proportion of those who failed to meet our expectations compared to those who succeeded.

If I were in his shoes and had the same help, I still have no confidence that I would be able to do it, especially since helping eight people at once requires extraordinary control and concentration, and his actions are enough to prove his quality as a cultivator.ʼ

Ziʼerʼs words left Liu Ming speechless with no way to reply to her, especially since the number of their younger generation who failed was far greater than those who succeeded, even though they had helped them with various means and resources.

Yang Yudieʼs head nodded repeatedly, and a proud smile adorned her old face. ʼOur talents as old cultivators cannot compare to Zhang Feiʼs. He started his cultivation path through a dual cultivation path, which made his cultivation increase tremendously in three months.

However, he was still not satisfied with that because his ambition was so great, so he decided to explore a new path as a body cultivator, and his efforts to become a soul cultivator could also be considered successful. If it werenʼt for him, we wouldnʼt have been able to learn those two ways, and watching him keep pushing himself made my old blood boil, so I wanted to try to do the same thing.ʼ

ʼHaha.ʼ Zhang Long laughed softly and took his wifeʼs hand. ʼShall we do it now? They wonʼt finish in a short time, so thereʼs no point for us to keep watching them, and we can try to do it.ʼ

ʼYeah, letʼs do it now.ʼ Zhang Long and Yang Yudie went straight to another area, wanting to try doing the same thing Zhang Fei did.

ʼLetʼs go! We will try to do that too.ʼ Liu Ming was startled by his motherʼs words, but he immediately followed Liu Rong, especially since he didnʼt want to lose to Zhang Fei.

Ziʼer could only sigh in her heart looking at them, especially since Zhang Wuji is living in the Netherworld Realm now, and he is trying to increase his demon power there. In the end, she decided to join Zhang Xiaoling and the others, particularly since she still hasnʼt managed to adapt to level two of gravity features.

Inside the portable mansion, Zhang Fei [1] also helped some of his partners to cultivate their souls, such as Yan Luanʼer, Xi Zihua, Ning Xiang, Du Yuan, and Han Xuenai. Unlike his real body and first clone, Feltia [2] and Zhang Fei [4] continued to have fun with their partners in the Diyu Realm and the Netherworld Realm, respectively.

Three hours passed quickly, and Shang Yaolin finally managed to channel her Yin Qi into her soul, which made her completely relieved. She was slightly surprised when Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs Yang Qi began to enter her soul, but she quickly calmed herself down and circulated it throughout her soul, fearing a backlash if she became panicked.

Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs Yang Qi slowly filled Shang Yaolinʼs soul more and more, and her Yin Qi also filled his soul more and more. Both continued to flow and revolve within each otherʼs souls, and the Yin-Yang diagram above them became increasingly clear as time passed even more.

After he was sure of their situation, Zhang Xiaolong [3] did something that Shang Yaolin did not expect by embracing her soul using his, and his action caused her concentration to waver slightly, so she hurriedly stabilized it again.

One hour.

Three hours.

After five hours, the caveʼs temperature abruptly dropped, and a loud storm began to rumble outside. Because of that, Zhang Xiaolong [3] decided to start pulling his Yang Qi back from Shang Yaolinʼs soul, especially since they had been at it for too long, and the temperature would also disturb their concentration.

Shang Yaolin followed Zhang Xiaolong [3] by pulling her Yin Qi back, and they returned their souls into their bodies after they no longer felt their Yang Qi and Yin Qi in their souls.

Both of them opened their eyes immediately, and Shang Yaolin gazed tenderly at Zhang Xiaolong [3], reaching out to caress his cheek. ”Thank you, Longʼer. If it werenʼt for you, I would never have thought of studying the soul cultivation path, and I definitely wouldnʼt have succeeded if you hadnʼt guided me with care.”

”Hehe.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] giggled and pressed Shang Yaolinʼs hand against his cheek. ”Why are you thanking me, Big Sis? If you guys hadnʼt brought me to this realm, I wouldnʼt have been able to meet Aunt Xinxin, Senior Brother Liangren, and Senior Sister Yingyue. Without their help, I wonʼt be able to learn those two cultivation paths, so it is only natural for me to help you, right?”

”Yeah.” Shang Yaolin then looked outside, and the scenery outside was already covered by a heavy snowstorm. ”Sigh! We were too absorbed in our cultivation, so we were late to notice the climate change, and we canʼt possibly return to our residence now.”

”Itʼs okay, big sis.” Although he could easily bring Shang Yaolin back to the Shang Clan residence, Zhang Xiaolong [3] had no intention of doing so. Instead, he took out some firewood from his inventory and used his fire element to make a bonfire to warm their bodies.

”Moreover, you said yourself that you wanted to spend time with me, and no one can disturb us here, so we can relax while waiting for the climate to change again. However, Aunt Xinxin might be angry at me for being absent from her training, and she might beat me up even harder tomorrow.”

”Haha.” When she heard that, Shang Yaoling laughed, and she immediately pulled Zhang Xiaolong [3] onto her lap while hugging him from behind. ”I will help you explain it to Aunt Xinxin, and I believe that she will let it slide this time, so you donʼt have to worry about it.”

Zhang Xiaolong [3] rubbed Shang Yaolinʼs hands, leaned on his chest, and looked up at her. ”Have you ever liked a man, Big Sis?”

”Eh?” Shang Yaolin was taken aback by that. ”Why do you ask that?”

”Iʼm just curious about that, especially since youʼre quite pretty. So I think there are many men who would want you as their wife.”

”Hmm?” Shang Yaolin narrowed her eyes at him. ”Quite pretty? Does that mean Iʼm not pretty in your eyes?”

”No... No...” Zhang Xiaolong [3] shook his head vigorously before stroking Shang Yaolinʼs cheeks. ”Youʼre pretty, but youʼre still less pretty than my mother, so I said it like that.”

”Humph!” Shang Yaolin snorted softly and pinched his cheeks. ”Sheʼs your mother, so youʼll definitely think sheʼs the prettiest woman in the universe! Even so, I still believe that Iʼm pretty, and many men yearn for me to be their wife, but Iʼve never been interested in them because they only approach me to get my motherʼs favor.

However, there is one man I like, and that man is Senior Brother Liangren. Unfortunately, my feelings are one-sided because he has no interest in love matters, and cultivation is much more important to him than feelings, so I bury my feelings for him deep in my heart because I donʼt want to experience disappointment if he rejects me.”

Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded his head in response. ”Senior Brother Liangren is indeed handsome and kind, so it is natural that many women admire and dream of him as their husband. You donʼt need to be disappointed, and I am sure that you will find a man worthy of being your husband in the future.”

”Hahaha.” Shang Yaolin laughed out loud after hearing that. ”Youʼre still this small, but you act like a grown man who understands feelings. However, youʼre right; I may find a man who is suitable for me in the future. Moreover, my lifespan is still very long, so I donʼt want to think too much about it for now, and I will wait for my right man to come to me.”

Shang Yaolin suddenly took out a thin mattress and had Zhang Xiaolong [3] lie down on it, especially since the temperature in the cave continued to drop, and she was afraid that he would catch a cold. ”Where did you get a mattress like this, Big Sis?”

”There is a realm in the upper realms with an advanced civilization compared to other realms, and they have a lot of strange equipment in their realm, so other cultivators often go there to buy various things that canʼt be found in their realm.” Shang Yaolinʼs answer made Zhang Xiaolong [3] curious about that realm.

”Its name is the Xianjin Realm, and it is the largest trading realm in the upper realms. However, the security in that realm is really tight, and we canʼt use our cultivation once we get there.

They set up a lot of equipment to seal our cultivation in every corner of their realm, and they also dispatched countless guardian puppets, which can kill cultivators even with their cultivation at the Divine Ascendant.”

”Huh?” Zhang Xiaolong [3] was completely shocked to hear about the Xianjin Realm. ”Puppets that can kill cultivators at the Divine Ascendant? Doesnʼt that mean the people in that realm are so powerful that they can create such strong puppets?”

Shang Yaolin smiled at seeing Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs expression. ”I expected that you would be shocked after hearing that, especially since I myself was shocked when I first learned about that realm.

Anyway, the people in that realm are indeed powerful, and their leader also acts as the leader of the cultivators in the upper realms, especially since he is the strongest cultivator with his cultivation being at 2-Moon Divine Ascendant. However, no one knows his name, and we always refer to him as the nameless one.”

Zhang Xiaolong [3] was no longer surprised to hear the name, especially since Feng Yao had told him before. However, he was really curious about the Xianjin Realm. ”Do you think I can go to that realm in the future, Big Sis?”

”Naturally, you can also go to that realm, but you donʼt need to think about it for now, especially since that place is still beyond your reach. For now, you only need to think about the road in front of you, and you can go there once youʼre really strong.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded in understanding, and Shang Yaolin then spoke again.

”In fact, I myself am lazy to go to that realm because there are too many powerful cultivators there, and I always feel pressured by their presence when Iʼm there, so I usually ask Uncle Chenguang or my mother to go there if I need something. Anyway, you havenʼt told me much about yourself, so I want to know more about you.”

”Thereʼs nothing interesting in my life, Big Sis. Weʼve always lived on the run to avoid being chased by those evil foxes, so we spent a lot of our time in hiding, and we were forced to move from one planet to another in the lower realms.” Shang Yaolin felt sorry to hear that Zhang Xiaolong [3] had to live in such a situation.

”Even though I lived in misery before, I am quite happy now, and I will strive hard to take revenge on those evil foxes.”

”Yeah, those heavenly foxes are indeed evil, especially Tian Baitian. Even though your father has humiliated his race by marrying a fox demon, he shouldnʼt have ordered people to kill your parents, and he should have let them live in peace in the lower realms, so you can live happily with them.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] laughed in his heart because Shang Yaolin bought his lies so easily.

”Anyway, I originally wanted to give you my Yin Qi, but I just remembered that your body canʼt absorb it yet, so I gave up on my intention. However, you donʼt need to worry, as my mother and Aunt Xinxin have already ordered the younger generation of the Murong and Hong Clans to collect their Yin Qi into bottles, and someone will send them here tomorrow, so you can use them to cultivate.”

”Itʼs okay, Big Sis.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] replied with a nod. ”Although I want to become strong as soon as possible, I am aware that our cultivation cannot be forced to increase that quickly. We must continue to stabilize our foundation before breaking through to the next stage, so I donʼt want to rush into it.

Moreover, I havenʼt fully succeeded in becoming a body cultivator, so I will focus on that for now. As for my soul cultivation, I have you and Senior Sister Yingyue to help me, so Iʼm not too worried about that.”

”Since Senior Sister Yingyue has promised you, she will definitely continue to help you, and I will also certainly not stop helping you.” Shang Yaolin suddenly fell silent, but her gaze continued to watch Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs face.

”If I look at your face, Iʼm sure that you will be a handsome man when you grow up, and many women will go crazy for you, especially if they know about your talent in cultivation.”

Zhang Xiaolong [3] immediately cupped Shang Yaolinʼs cheeks, looked into her eyes, and asked her a question. ”Does that mean youʼll be crazy about me too, Big Sis?”
