Zhongsheng Continent.

Level Six spirit vein cave abode.

Yu Qingling soaked in the Spirit Milk Spring that was suffused with heat. Her fair jade arm was glossy and warm, and traces of spirit liquid dripped down from her fingertips. At this moment, the calm face with the sword mark between her brows was filled with speechlessness. She gritted her teeth lightly. “Damn talisman master, there’s no sound again!”

She looked at the core jade token. She wanted to send another message, but her jade arm still drooped. In the end, she rested her chin on her palm and leaned against the edge of the spring, thinking. “How should 1 resolve the worries accumulated over the days of cultivation? If it really doesn’t work, 1 can only continue to use contributions.”

At five o’clock, in the side room of the small courtyard. Shen Ping, who had just returned from next door, smelled the long-lost fragrance of petals. He pushed open the door. Immediately, a fragrance wafted into his nose. There was a beautiful figure in the hazy and steaming house.

Shen Ping strode forward. As his brocade robe fluttered, he was already soaking in the wooden barrel. Before he could speak, the sweet grapefruits bumped into him.

Immediately after, Shen Ping felt the coldness of the Snow Ganoderma Pill. He frowned and looked at the seductive look at the corner of Yu Yan’s eyes. He could not help but remind her, “Four is the limit you can withstand at the ninth level of Qi Refinement. If you’re not careful, your Dao heart will be damaged.”

He didn’t finish his sentence when his voice was blocked by the warm fragrance.

Ten minutes passed.

The grapefruits shook the water violently. The Snow Ganoderma Pill completely transformed into pure medicinal power that spread throughout his body.

Yu Yan’s face quickly flushed red. Her legs were tense, and her fair skin was trembling. It was only when a mountain flood came from the depths of the mountain that the water surface of the wooden bucket gradually calmed down.

She collapsed weakly in Shen Ping’s arms. After a long time, she said faintly, “Husband, in the past, I could still be more skilled in the Dao exchange, but now, I’m losing more and more. 1 was defeated in just one round. It will be the same in the future. It’s difficult for you to enjoy yourself. Even if I succeed in building my foundation in the future, 1 still won’t be able to catch up to you.”

Yu Yan forced herself to straighten her body. There was a smile in her eyes, but her face was filled with bitterness. “Do you think I’m useless?”

Shen Ping did not say anything. Instead, he kissed her gently on the lips and hugged her tightly.

Time passed slowly. When he heard the long breathing in his arms, he looked down. Yu Yan had already fallen asleep. Tears fell from the corners of her eyes. He got up. Shen Ping placed her flat on the bed, covered her with the brocade blanket, and walked out of the room.

The sky was still dark. The small courtyard was filled with fog. He took a step and stood at the entrance of the Spirit Pool’s quiet room. He turned around and looked at the crystal light shining through the gaps in the wooden window of the room, his heart heavy.

After Foundation Establishment, especially as the blood of the strange beast in his body increased his physique, it was getting harder and harder for him to communicate with his wife and concubines.

First, his wife, Wang Yun, took the initiative to ask for the Spirit Jade Ginseng Ointment. Then, Yu Yan’s words today. All of this explained the problem. Although Luo Qing and Bai Yuying did not say anything, late at night everyday, the two women would try their best to endure it.

This was the inevitable price to pay for an increase in cultivation strength.

In just twelve years of cold and heat, he had broken through from the bottom of the Qi Refinement realm to the current second level of Foundation Establishment. Moreover, in four to five months, it was very likely that he would advance to another level.

As for his wife and concubines, even Yu Yan had only cultivated to the ninth level of Qi Refinement with the spirit liquid, medicinal pills, Snow Ganoderma Pills, Spirit Jade Ginseng Ointment, cultivation techniques, spirit pool, and so on. With her aptitude, it would take her at least three to four years to polish her spiritual energy to a perfect state.

Only Luo Qing, Bai Yuying, and Wang Yun were left. It would take longer for them to reach Foundation Establishment.

When that time came, the gap between his cultivation and his wife and concubines might widen again. He shook his head, and suppressed his emotions and opened the virtual interface. Under the light of the luxurious purple crown, there was a patch of golden light flickering. Under the golden light, there were three silver lights. Below them were two ordinary frames.

He stared at the different shining lights. He stood there for a long time.

“How can one build their foundation faster?!” Shen Ping asked himself. There was no answer. However, the blood of the strange beast in his body seemed to be boiling.

A few days later, Elder Peng sent a message. The members of the Fire Toad Cave and the main station of the Northern Rock Marsh Region had arrived.

In the backyard of the True Treasure Pavilion, Shen Ping stepped across the threshold and noticed the gazes of unfamiliar cultivators converging on him. He did not care. First, he cupped his hands in greeting to Shopkeeper Qu, Chong Ji, Deacon Xia, Perfected Qiu, and the others. Then, he entered the hall. He had just stepped in when waves of Nascent Soul magic powers surged over, but they were quickly neutralized by the special array formation in the hall. He looked up. Seven or eight cultivators stood on both sides.

The one on the left came from the Fire Toad Cave. There were special embroidery patterns on the left shoulder of their robes, and the one on the right was a member of the Northern Rock Marsh Region.

“Guest Elder Shen. Let me introduce you. This is Elder Ying from the main station of the Fire Toad Cave. These are…” After the introduction, Elder Peng smiled proudly and said, “Fellow Daoists, Senior Ying, Guest Elder Shen is a core member of the Wei Kingdom’s True Treasure Pavilion!”

Elder Ying glanced at Shen Ping and chuckled as he tasted the spiritual tea. “Guest Elder Shen, it’s really admirable that you can pass the headquarters’ assessment with such a cultivation level. Back then, when I became a core member of the headquarters, 1 was already at the late-stage Foundation Establishment Realm. However, be it the early-stage Foundation Establishment Realm or the late-stage Foundation Establishment Realm, it’s difficult to stay in the headquarters for a long time…”

Halfway through his sentence, he stopped and his gaze landed on the mark of the mountain fire on the left shoulder of the Dao Protector behind Shen Ping.

His pupils constricted.

Mountain Fire Hall. He was not surprised at all that a core member had a Dao Protector. However, if it was a hall-level Dao Protector, the core member in front of him would probably be extraordinary.

Elder Ying’s attitude changed. He continued with a gentle smile, “Since Guest Elder Shen is from the South Flame Continent, if you have any needs in the future, feel free to tell the Cave Division. When you reach the headquarters in the future, our South Flame Continent will be your greatest supporter.”

Shen Ping hurriedly cupped his hands and said, “Thank you for your guidance, Elder Ying.”

After that, they chatted for a while. He got to know the members on both sides. The eight cultivators were all Golden Core Realm cultivators. Three of them were gorgeous female cultivators who had been transferred over to host the auction, and the rest were guest elders.

Facing Shen Ping, a core member, their attitudes were very polite, and their words actually had a kind of care for him as if he was their junior.

Shen Ping was not used to it. He sat in the room in the backyard for a while before casually finding an excuse to leave.

After leaving the True Treasure Pavilion for a while, he was still frowning.

Perfected Qiu was waiting at the entrance of the street in Tongquan Alley. When she saw Shen Ping walking over, she smiled and said, “Guest Elder Shen, the members sent by the Cave Division and the Region Division are mainly for the future resources of the Wei Kingdom. Secondly, they want to befriend you. 1 heard from Elder Peng that the other small courtyards in Tongquan Alley will be rented to them temporarily.

“Next, Guest Elder Shen will be busy..”
