Su Qing began cultivating the +2 version of the Five Qi God Demon Technique.

This time, a single Grand Circulation took three hours.

It started at the Minor Achievement stage, as it had inherited the Skill Level from the +1 version.

However, Su Qing’s Spiritual Qi and Physique had increased passively.

After just one Circulation, his Spiritual Qi had surprisingly increased by fifty.

It went from 1246 to 1296, and his Physique increased by two points.

The power of this Cultivation Technique was simply beyond words.

After cultivating for several more days, Su Qing stretched lazily, rose to his feet, and put away the Puppet.

He left his residence.

...

"Young Master Su, it’s been so long. I’ve missed you to death."

A delicate voice sounded to Su Qing’s left, and then his left side was pressed against something thick and soft.

Su Qing’s lips curled into a smile. "Is that so, Liu Su? Just how much did you miss me?"

"Liu’Er missed you too."

Another woman hugged Su Qing, and many others walked over as well.

Only then did Su Qing realize just how charismatic he was.

"I missed you all too."

"Just two beauties for today. The rest of you ladies should get some rest."

Su Qing then led the two beauties upstairs.

The mood was enchanting, but the two women wanted more.

Or rather, they wanted to take things a step further with Su Qing.

But Su Qing always avoided it when things reached this point.

"Have mercy, my dear ladies. I am cultivating a Child Skill and cannot lose my virginity."

Su Qing chuckled and planted a kiss on each of the Courtesans’ cheeks.

That’s right, they were Courtesans—entertainers who only sold their art.

But who could blame them? Su Qing was handsome and likable.

After another happy night...

...

Su Qing returned once more.

Cultivation.

He couldn’t neglect the Five Qi God Demon Technique.

Su Qing imagined his current Five Qi God Demon Body becoming twenty times stronger.

’I can’t even imagine how powerful that would be. My Synthesizer is just too powerful, isn’t it? The very thought is incredibly exciting.’

He cultivated for an entire day.

At night, Su Qing went to the Demon-Extermination Bureau again.

This time, Su Qing went to the entrance of the book pavilion, tossed back the book he had finished reading, and then left the Demon-Extermination Bureau at an astonishing speed.

With Su Qing’s current strength, ’there’s no need to rush cultivating the Five Qi God Demon Technique +2. Instead, I should focus on cultivating the Divine Concealment Technique to its peak. After all, my current strength doesn’t seem that impressive to me. I still can’t fly, for one thing. Using just my Spiritual Qi, I can only take a few steps in the air at most before it’s all used up. So, the qi from the Gathering Spirit stage is still inferior to that of the Qi Cultivation stage. I’ve read the Five Elements Qi Cultivation Technique. The quality of the refined Spiritual Qi and the intricacies of its use are on a much higher level than my current one. No matter how awesome I am in the Gathering Spirit Stage, it’s useless.’

That was Su Qing’s conclusion.

He spent three hours a day cultivating the Five Qi God Demon Technique.

The rest of his time was dedicated to cultivating the Divine Concealment Technique.

Even at this pace, Su Qing felt it would take at least two more months to get the Divine Concealment Technique to the Third Layer.

’At my current pace with the Five Qi God Demon Technique, there’s no way I can reach Perfection before spring.’

’This means I’ll have to make a choice.’

Su Qing silently glanced at his status panel.

Both the Five Qi God Demon Technique and the Divine Concealment Technique required too much Skill Level.

With the time he had, Su Qing couldn’t possibly cultivate either of them to Perfection.

...

...

「Spring arrived.」

The heavy snow began to melt.

The world grew warmer.

The ice on the great river had broken apart.

A dense Spiritual Qi was gathering outside his door.

After sensing it, Su Qing stopped his Cultivation.

’Who could it be?’

Su Qing had been so engrossed in his cultivation that he hadn’t realized the weather had warmed and spring had arrived.

He got up and opened the door to greet his visitor.

He didn’t expect it to be Xu Ningying.

"Su Qing, long time no see. Spring is here. Remember your promise."

They hadn’t seen each other for over a month.

Xu Ningying’s gaze toward Su Qing seemed to have grown much colder.

"Mm."

"I will."

"The Zhengxuan Sect is recruiting disciples. Do you want to go get your Spirit Root tested?" Xu Ningying asked, her eyes sweeping over Su Qing.

Su Qing seemed even more ordinary now; even his aura was no longer so outstanding.

Especially his five-colored eyes, which now showed no trace of their rainbow hues.

"No need. I’m only serving as your Guardian Dao for a month."

"When should I go with you?"

Su Qing asked.

"Seven days from now."

"Come find me at my residence."

Su Qing nodded and smiled. "Want to come in and sit for a while?"

Xu Ningying shook her head, declining. "No, thank you. You should rest well."

Perhaps it was because Xu Ningying, as a member of both the Xu Family and the Demon-Extermination Bureau, disliked fickle men.

The matter of Su Qing visiting brothels had been dug up long ago.

In Xu Ningying’s eyes, Su Qing was perhaps just an ordinary Cultivator who had gained a bit of strength, was good-looking, but lacked any long-term vision.

It wasn’t until she met true Sect Cultivators that she realized Su Qing’s strength was nothing special.

Seeing him become even more ordinary, in particular, made her realize that the Five Spirit Roots truly didn’t seem to be of much use.

Su Qing, of course, had no idea there was so much drama going on in Xu Ningying’s head.

He had only invited her in as a friend.

Besides, there was nothing much to see in his residence, not even his bedroom, which had barely changed.

Xu Ningying left in a hurry.

Su Qing didn’t care at all.

He closed the door.

The Divine Concealment Technique still hadn’t reached the Divine Treasure stage.

Su Qing couldn’t finish all of his Great Replenishing Pills.

Therefore, the level of his Synthesizer had barely changed.

He just kept cultivating every day.

After all, the feeling of improving himself was simply fantastic, truly wonderful.

It was like playing a real-life video game.

The surging power in his body told him this was no dream.

’There are still seven days left.’

’I still can’t cultivate the Divine Concealment Technique to the Third Layer.’

’I didn’t go get my Spirit Root tested, but Xu Ningying will probably cover for me regarding my Spirit Root attribute.’

’I’ll go to that so-called Zhengxuan Sect and see what happens.’

Su Qing was genuinely afraid that the fact he had no Spirit Root would be discovered.

He would definitely be branded a heretic of the demonic path.

Su Qing rubbed his temples.

’This is a headache. I have to face another unknown environment.’

As his head throbbed, Su Qing saw several books on his desk.

He had taken them from the Demon-Extermination Bureau.

They were about the Immortal Cultivation Realm.

Without much hesitation, Su Qing picked up one titled *Observations on the Zhengxuan Sect*.

He began to read.

After all, knowledge was as important as strength; this way, he could understand what this Sect was really like.

It was a thick book.

Su Qing read quietly as he lit the candle on his desk.
