Chapter 29: From Mortal to Immortal, in One Go
Fu Huaian retreated two steps, wiping his shoes clean on Yuan Qian’s originally pristine white robe.
He lightly leaped out of the shallow pit, choosing to heed Ji Nan Yuan’s words and temporarily cease his actions.
After all, she was not only the Emperor but also a Master of the Tai Xu Realm; what if she slapped him for not listening?
Fu Huaian knew very well that he couldn’t withstand even half a move from someone in the Tai Xu Realm right now!
Ji Nan Yuan glanced at Fu Huaian; this boy truly was a rare Genius.
She wondered if there was a chance for him to serve in the palace; it would be a pity for him to be an eunuch, and she didn’t know if he would be willing to be the Empress…
Ji Nan Yuan’s Divine Sense looked towards Yuan Qian; he had already struggled to sit up, his Face bloody and his ugly state fully exposed.
Yuan Qian desperately suppressed the hatred in his heart, preventing it from overwhelming his reason.
Yuan Qian now knew perfectly well that if he continued to overestimate himself and provoke Fu Huaian, the result would only be more humiliation.
He struggled to his feet, and before leaving, he didn’t forget to bow slightly to Ji Nan Yuan, then dragged his injured body away.
Fu Huaian frowned slightly; this boy actually didn’t retaliate, not even daring to cast a resentful glance at him.
Was he scared witless, or was he suppressing his emotions, planning a thunderous revenge?
Fu Huaian sighed inwardly, thinking that if Ji Nan Yuan hadn’t been here, this Young Lord wouldn’t have had any chance of survival.
Shen Jinyu’s heart was calm; as long as Huai’an looked fine now, everything was alright.
Ji Nan Yuan looked at Fu Huaian, thought for a moment, and said:
“Given your actions, that boy will certainly harbor resentment. He’s bound to seek revenge from Masters within his Sect when he returns.
Previously, Yuan Qian met with me and invited me to discuss something with them.
I plan to visit Kuiyang Sword Sect tomorrow, and you can come with me.
I will mediate this grievance for you. Yuan Qian wasn’t fundamentally injured, and I presume that with my Face, Kuiyang Sword Sect will not seek revenge on you.”
Fu Huaian glanced at the Empress’s charming Face, wondering if it was necessary to resolve the grievance.
Although Kuiyang Sword Sect had a Tai Xu Realm expert, he was about to Breakthrough, and with his Master, they would have two Transcendent experts.
Should he avoid their sharpness!?
“Your Majesty, how strong is the Tai Xu Realm?”
Ji Nan Yuan smiled, her jade fingers lightly pinching Fu Huaian’s two fingers, her smile enchanting and playful.
Fu Huaian understood.
He was like an ant before her.
“What if I am Transcendent?”
Ji Nan Yuan thought for a moment; with Fu Huaian’s foundation, a newly entered Transcendent would likely possess considerable combat power.
“If a Tai Xu Realm expert attacks you, a newly entered Transcendent might be able to resist for about fifteen minutes. After reaching Transcendent Perfection, you might have a chance to escape.”
This assessment was already very high.
For anyone else, regardless of their Transcendent Realm stage,
if a Tai Xu Realm expert made a move, it would be certain death; at best, a more dignified death.
Fu Huaian thought to himself that the Tai Xu Realm was indeed a bit strong, but would it be somewhat humiliating to go to their Sect?
Fu Huaian was a bit reluctant.
“Your Majesty, there’s no need for that. I’m not afraid!”
Fu Huaian was truly not afraid in his heart, unless he was caught alone by the Kuiyang Sword Sect’s Tai Xu Realm expert. Otherwise, with his and his Master’s strength, escaping would not be difficult.
His Master had already reached Transcendent Perfection Realm.
Ji Nan Yuan looked at Fu Huaian disapprovingly, her voice soft and charming.
“Go when I tell you to go, be obedient!”
Ji Nan Yuan still wanted to protect Fu Huaian, fearing that something unexpected might happen.
Within the Great Yan Dynasty, such a talented Genius had not appeared for many years.
Fu Huaian felt helpless; defying the decree would be him being unreasonable. Tomorrow, he would just give that Kuiyang Sword Sect a cold shoulder when they visited.
He would be accompanying the Empress; did Kuiyang Sword Sect dare to touch him!
Shen Jinyu nodded lightly, quite satisfied with how Ji Nan Yuan was handling things.
Compared to Fu Huaian’s fearlessness, Shen Jinyu still felt that having Ji Nan Yuan mediate was safer!
Having said that, Fu Huaian looked at Ji Nan Yuan and nodded reluctantly.
“Thank you, Your Majesty. I will accompany you there tomorrow.”
Ji Nan Yuan rolled her eyes charmingly, waving her hand to tell Fu Huaian to get lost.
This annoying man who doesn’t understand my good intentions!
Fu Huaian winked at his Master’s wife, smiled, and turned to leave.
Shen Jinyu felt it was inappropriate to openly flirt in front of the Empress and blushed slightly.
Ji Nan Yuan looked helpless, pretending not to see it.
… …
Fu Huaian returned to his courtyard and sought out his Master.
He recounted to his Master how he had taught Yuan Qian a lesson and that he needed to go to Kuiyang Sword Sect with the Empress tomorrow.
Pei Qinghuan frowned slightly and said in a deep voice:
“Huai’an, you did well! It’s Yuan Qian’s good luck that you didn’t kill him. As for going to Kuiyang Sword Sect tomorrow, I need to go with you.”
Fu Huaian smiled and nodded.
Pei Qinghuan pondered for a moment, then looked at Fu Huaian’s handsome Face.
“Can you Breakthrough now?”
Fu Huaian was startled, then nodded confidently!
Pei Qinghuan showed a smile, her eyes sparkling.
“Let’s leave now and find a suitable place to advance!”
Fu Huaian also felt there was no need to delay, so he abruptly stood up and left with Pei Qinghuan.
The two didn’t notify anyone else and quietly walked out of the Shen Residence.
They left Ying City and headed straight for a desolate mountaintop a hundred li outside Ying City!
This place was deserted, with only the faint sound of low beast roars.
Fu Huaian stood on the mountaintop; the sky was overcast, with no scorching sun.
Before him were swirling clouds, accompanied by whistling winds.
Being in such a place, it looked like weather prone to lightning strikes…
Pei Qinghuan, however, only found the place quiet enough for him to Breakthrough safely.
Fu Huaian found a large, gray boulder and sat cross-legged on it quietly.
After exchanging glances with his precious Master, he gently exhaled, sat properly, and closed his eyes.
Pei Qinghuan watched Fu Huaian intently from a distance, her heart beginning to feel inexplicably nervous.
Although she felt that her disciple’s Breakthrough was almost certain, without any accidents,
a hint of worry still arose in her heart.
Time gradually passed.
Fu Huaian slowly refined Spiritual Qi according to the Taiyi Sword Pool Cultivation Technique.
The process was exceptionally smooth. The first trace of Spiritual Qi was born in Fu Huaian’s Dantian, and as the Spiritual Qi grew, pure Spiritual Qi gathered in his Dantian.
The Qi in Fu Huaian’s limbs and bones, guided by the Cultivation Technique, was nourished by Spiritual Qi, slowly transforming and becoming Spiritual Qi. This process was much faster than direct refinement!
An hour later.
Fu Huaian floated up, his hair flying, his body surging with Spiritual Qi. The Spiritual Qi in his Dantian was thick like mist, and the first drop of spiritual liquid began to appear.
From mortal to Immortal, this was the moment!
The martial Dao of this world, its ultimate limit so far was the first grade. To advance further, one must have a method for refining Spiritual Qi.
This method was an Immortal Cultivation Technique.
With a Cultivation Technique, one could become an Immortal on the mountain in one fell swoop. Without a Cultivation Technique, one would practice martial arts and cultivate Qi all day, with a lifelong limit at the first grade.
At least in this world, they hadn’t yet explored a method to advance solely through the martial Dao!
Fu Huaian speculated that the martial Dao should also have a great future, but this world revered Immortals and disparaged martial arts, so it had never developed…
The condensation of spiritual liquid was a more prolonged process.
Three hours later, night covered the land, and a light drizzle began to fall.
Within Fu Huaian’s Dantian, a spiritual spring opened, and a mass of spiritual liquid was pure and translucent white.
He began to forge his Dao Foundation, taking the final step to Breakthrough to Transcendent!
