Cultivation: Starting from a Mortal Bone

[Yin Qinghe Romantic Point: 58 (Not Leaving)]

The sudden fluctuation of Romantic Point from the beautiful master made Qin Yu glance over.

Although she quickly hid that trace of worry in her eyes and pretended nothing was wrong, Qin Yu only had to think a little to know exactly what she was worried about.

So right in front of Lin Qianqian and the other two, he grabbed this beautiful master lady into his arms and kissed her hard, sealing her little mouth without warning.

At first, Yin Qinghe struggled.

After all, this was in front of the Lin sisters.

But she quickly softened, and in the end, only when her little mouth was swollen did he finally let her go.

She was just about to complain, but Qin Yu, with a serious face and a tone of promise, said, "No matter when or where, I will never abandon any one of you!"

The fairy is good indeed.

But if he truly had to choose, even if it would be hard to let go, he would still choose to be with his beautiful master and the others.

As long as he has enough time to grow, could Fairy Xiyue really escape from him?!

If the Cyan Mountain Sect does not allow it,

then he’ll just flatten the entire Cyan Mountain Sect!

Qin Yu indulged in a little fantasy.

Though it sounded childish, if such a thing really happened, he would absolutely do it.

"Hehe!"

Lin Shuishui and Zhao Mengli’s eyes were sparkling as they watched him, and as for Lin Qianqian, there was nothing more to say.

The little wife was the first to be devoted unto death; her body and soul had long since been given wholly to Qin Yu.

[Zhao Mengli Romantic Point: 95 (Heartfelt)]

Tsk!

Still not full. It seems that, although little elder sister doesn’t say anything, there’s still a bit of worry in her heart.

Qin Yu was in no hurry.

"Pff."

The beautiful master lady gave a small sulk, but her peach blossom eyes were still full of affection.

[Yin Qinghe Romantic Point: 65 (Deep Affection)]

Love is like poison, yet she drinks it like sweet dew.

Qin Yu just held his beautiful master lady as he sat down, and while at it pulled Lin Shuishui over—one sitting on each leg.

This made the beautiful master lady so shy.

Especially when Lin Shuishui curiously asked, "Should I call you Shiniang, or call you... Sister Qinghe?"

"Shuishui, of course you call her Shiniang like I do," Zhao Mengli chimed in as well.

If Qin Yu wasn’t holding her, Yin Qinghe would have definitely run back to the main house.

After some playful commotion,

everyone’s attention went back to the commotion inside the city.

Breaking through to Golden Core was a major event.

Inside and outside the city, countless cultivators were watching intently.

At first, Qin Yu’s expression was relaxed, but gradually, he became more serious and solemn.

The aura was great, yet for some unknown reason, it actually began to weaken...

This clearly wasn’t because Su Xiyue had already broken through to Golden Core.

The reason for the weakening wasn’t the vortex’s absorption power, but that... the Spiritual Qi in the area she influenced was almost completely exhausted!

But, it was clearly not enough!

Not enough to support her breakthrough to Golden Core.

"What a pity. If Fairy Xiyue were in an Immortal Gate Blessed Land, with a Spirit Vein supporting her, perhaps the breakthrough would be possible. But here, with Spiritual Qi so thin, even with her talent, it’s hard to achieve Golden Core Dao in such a meager environment."

In the city, an elder at Foundation Establishment shook his head and sighed, eyes full of regret.

They were loose cultivators from Lin Xian City, of course hoping the Cyan Mountain Sect thrives, so that life here stays peaceful. If the Hundred Sword Sect took over, who knows what misfortune would come.

But, Fairy Xiyue chose this place, this time, before making full preparations, so it looked destined to fail.

Even the Cyan Mountain Sect disciples couldn’t help wondering.

By rights, as the Immortal Sect Saintess, Fairy Xiyue would never make such a rookie mistake.

But how could they know, even Su Xiyue herself hadn’t expected to have a breakthrough opportunity at this time.

She was merely sensing the transformation of her physique, and didn’t expect a chance for breakthrough to appear so naturally.

The City Lord’s Mansion was already the most Spiritual Qi-rich place in the city.

But still far from enough!

Su Xiyue herself also realized something was wrong. After a slight hesitation, she took out some top-grade Spirit Stones from her Storage Ring and started refining them directly.

At first,

her speed at refining top-grade Spirit Stones was enough to keep up.

Her dantian was like a sea, and on the surface of this sea, suddenly, a blazing sun seemed about to rise, all the surrounding water converging toward it.

In just a short while, the Spiritual Qi within her meridians and dantian was nearly exhausted.

Without enough Spiritual Qi coming in, that not-yet-fully-born sun appeared unstable, starting to waver—on the verge of collapse at any moment.

If it really collapsed, this breakthrough would announce its failure, and she might even suffer inner turmoil in her dantian.

Equivalent to backlash!

Su Xiyue frowned, but had no other way, and could only do her utmost to refine Spirit Stones and supply herself.

"Crash!..."

Outside, the massive vortex was clearly unstable as well, showing signs of collapse.

"She’s going to fail!"

Almost everyone believed so.

"Weng!..."

Suddenly, the vortex not only began spinning again, but also rapidly expanded; in a blink, its range included the entire Lin Xian City.

And it was still spreading outward, expanding.

"This... how is this possible?!"

Not only the cultivators in Lin Xian City were utterly baffled—even the Cyan Mountain Sect disciples had no idea what was happening.

The area from which a cultivator draws Spiritual Qi normally depends entirely on their Root Bone.

Back when Qin Yu had a Lower Grade Mortal Bone, he could only affect the Spiritual Qi within about a foot around him. Even now, with a Lower Grade Spirit Bone—that’s pretty much just Danxin Herb Hall’s range.

Su Xiyue is different. She has a Top Grade Spirit Bone, and her cultivation technique is extraordinary. She can affect half of Lin Xian City at once.

Now, virtually all the Spiritual Qi within the entire Lin Xian City was being drawn entirely toward her. Not only that, her speed refining Spirit Stones surged greatly.

The reason was only one...

Her Root Bone, at this moment, had successfully evolved!

Dao Bone!

Even if it was still slowly evolving, its influence range immediately doubled, then tripled... the speed of refining Spirit Stones grew likewise!

If Su Xiyue only had Top Grade Spirit Bone, she might have been doomed to fail this breakthrough.

But!

The Dao Bone was different.

Su Xiyue’s heart leapt with joy. Without hesitation, she took out every top-grade Spirit Stone from her Storage Ring into her hands.

She was going to gamble everything on this!

As the number of top-grade Spirit Stones decreased, the aura from her body only grew stronger and stronger.

At last!

"Weng!..."

An immense ripple spread from the City Lord’s Mansion, rippling in all directions— as if declaring something to the world.

"Boom!"

While everyone was dumbfounded, the next moment, Su Xiyue appeared in the sky.

The Spiritual Qi from all around flooded into her body like a hundred rivers to the sea, making her seem truly like a fairy descending to the mortal world.

She only cast a light gaze below, her eyes finally locking on the distant Ruins Rift.

"Whoosh!"

She moved, turning into a streak of white light, instantly vanishing at the horizon.

"Quick, follow the Saintess!"

The Cyan Mountain Sect steward grew anxious, no longer caring about anything else, and chased after her with full strength.
