A Loose Cultivator's Path to Longevity

When Lü Zhong entered the hall, Shuini was meditating with her eyes closed.

The moment she sensed his arrival, she opened her eyes. Her gaze was enchanting, her lips curved into a smile, and her graceful figure was on full display beneath her light gauze robes. She immediately rose and led Lü Zhong to a seat, then looked him up and down, the smile in her eyes impossible to contain.

"You’re finally here!" Shuini said with a smile.

With a single wave of her hand, an invisible force gently pushed the hall doors shut on their own. Her gaze then returned to Lü Zhong, and she leaned against him quite naturally before speaking in a serious tone:

"There’s no time to waste. I shall now impart the Secret Skill to you."

’There really is one?’

Lü Zhong gave her a peculiar look.

He had originally thought Shuini was simply unbearably lonely and trying to trick him into coming over, but from the looks of things, it seemed she really did have a Secret Skill to impart.

’It’s just that the method of teaching it seems a little...’

Sensing the meaning behind his gaze, Shuini couldn’t help but blush, yet she still acted as if nothing was amiss. Brushing a stray lock of hair close to his ear, she actually began to recite a profound Technique Mantra.

"The Profound Vagina Spirit Fusion Skill."

She had acquired this skill from the Immortal Spirit Sect, trading away significant benefits, all for the sake of their trip to the Ten Thousand Witches Hall. Its purpose was to connect the Magical Power and Heart and Spirit of two people, allowing them to achieve the effect of a combined attack.

By combining their strength, they could even, for a short time, unleash power comparable to that of a Mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

It was important to understand that upon reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, the difference in power between each Small Realm was immense, far greater than during Foundation Establishment and Core Formation. A Secret Skill like this, one that allowed two people to challenge a higher Realm, was considered top-tier in the Cultivation Realm. Otherwise, Shuini would not have gone to such lengths to obtain it.

With the protection of this skill, she expected their upcoming trip to the Ten Thousand Witches Hall would go much more smoothly.

Lü Zhong was moved when he heard this.

He then began to cultivate with Shuini.

...

「A month went by in a flash.」

For this past month, Lü Zhong and Shuini had been in the True Spirit Hall day and night, never once stopping their cultivation of the Profound Vagina Spirit Fusion Skill.

Cultivating this skill was actually quite simple.

All it required was dual cultivation, to experience the sensation of Yin and Yang uniting as one.

There was only one condition for cultivating the Profound Vagina Spirit Fusion Skill: it could only be practiced after achieving Nascent Soul Formation. Otherwise, it was just an unremarkable dual cultivation Secret Technique used purely for pleasure.

Sometimes, Lü Zhong even suspected Shuini was doing this on purpose.

As their progress on the Secret Skill improved, the power of their combined attack rose in tandem. However, if they wanted to elevate their strength to the level of a Mid-stage Nascent Soul, they still had more work to do.

One day, the Prohibition outside the door was triggered.

"It’s Feng Miao," Shuini said as she opened her eyes.

In the True Spirit Sect, few were qualified to disturb her during seclusion. The Core Formation Elders certainly weren’t; there was only Feng Miao, who was also a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

Soon, the hall doors opened.

Feng Miao, radiating an aggressive aura and clad in moon-colored robes, strode in from outside. Her gaze landed on Lü Zhong, and fury immediately erupted on her face. Through clenched teeth, she said:

"Fellow Daoist Lü, what crime did my disciple commit that was so great he deserved to be ambushed and killed by you?"

Lü Zhong’s expression remained impassive upon hearing this.

Shuini, who was standing to the side, instantly grasped the situation. With a light smile, she said, "Fellow Daoist Feng, I’m afraid there has been a misunderstanding. As far as I know, there was no direct conflict between Fellow Daoist Lü and your disciple. Where does this talk of an ambush and murder come from? As for your disciple’s... accident... here in the True Spirit Sect... why don’t I send someone to investigate right now?"

"Investigate? Hmph!" Feng Miao snorted coldly.

On the surface, she appeared to be seething with rage, but inwardly she was starting to have second thoughts.

She had questioned Lü Zhong the moment she entered, but it was merely a bluff to startle a confession out of him. In truth, she hadn’t found a single trace of the killer, so she could only focus her suspicion on Lü Zhong, the most likely candidate.

After all, as far as Feng Miao knew, her disciple, Feng Huanyu, had previously intended to ambush and kill Lü Zhong.

’If that doesn’t count as making an enemy, what does?’

’If it were her, and she learned that some cultivator had once plotted against her, she would certainly eliminate them root and stem—and even destroy their soul, just to be safe.’

But judging from Lü Zhong’s current reaction, he really didn’t seem like the killer.

Seeing her expression waver, Lü Zhong chuckled to himself. ’These Central Earth Cultivators really are accustomed to being arrogant and overbearing,’ he thought.

’To the point that a dignified Nascent Soul True Monarch would do something so brainless and foolish.’

’Well, this is interesting. Let’s see how you’re going to back out of this now?’

He continued to remain silent, leaving it for Shuini to handle.

After some more wrangling, Feng Miao finally departed, though she was clearly reluctant to do so.

Watching Feng Miao’s figure disappear into the wind and snow, Shuini turned and gave Lü Zhong a helpless look. "Why didn’t you tell me about this beforehand?" she said, exasperated.

Lü Zhong spread his hands, a wry smile on his face. "How was I supposed to know she’d be so irrational? She doesn’t play by any logical rules."

As he spoke, he made a mental note to himself. ’The ways of these Central Earth Cultivators can’t always be judged by common sense. I’ll need to be more on my guard.’

Without any evidence, Feng Miao couldn’t do anything to him.

For his part, Lü Zhong couldn’t do anything to Feng Miao either. Although both shared a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivation, he was a newly ascended Nascent Soul, while she was a Nascent Soul Old Monster who had lived for a thousand years. Whether in terms of accumulated Magical Power or various life-preserving treasures and techniques, he was no match for her.

Even if he joined forces with Shuini, the most they could hope for was to injure her.

They wouldn’t even be able to destroy her physical body.

And so, the farce came to a temporary end.

...

「Another six months passed.」

Before the Lantern Festival, Lü Zhong told Shuini he had to leave.
