Chapter 154: Long-lost Heartbeat
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was February.
It was the cold season of spring in Qingyang City.
At this ti, the ray of light leaped east from the city gate and crossed Qingyang Lake. After twenty minutes, it landed at the foot of the Maple Forest Mountain Range that surrounded the East Lake.
Several charming and beautiful figures quickly appeared among the maple trees that were emitting new buds.
Bai Yuying was wearing a beautiful dress woven with cloud patterns. Her face was a little beautiful. She closed her eyes and sniffed the fresh spring sll in the forest. Her cheerful voice sounded. “Ying’er hasn’t co out for a long ti. I didn’t expect Husband to have the ti to accompany us on a spring trip today. That’s great.”
Shen Ping smiled and said, “It’s inevitable that we’ll feel bored after cultivating for a long ti. In the past, I couldn’t bring you out to relax because of my cultivation and strength. But now, with Senior Pei by my side, I don’t have to consider my safety. I can enjoy the surrounding beautiful scenery to my heart’s content to relieve my boredom.”
Yu Yan’s brows revealed a hint of gentleness as she said softly, “Thank you, husband.”
“Thank you, Husband.” Wang Yun and Luo Qing smiled one after another.
Shen Ping clapped his hands and said, “Since you’re here to play, relax your mind. Don’t care about those distracting thoughts of cultivation.”
“Yes, husband.”
“Sister Yun’er, let’s go over there and take a look.” Bai Yuying pulled Wang Yun and ran towards the west of Maple Forest. The mountains there were undulating, and there were clouds lingering along the mountain ridge. The scenery was pleasant.
Yu Yan was wearing a robe that tied her waist. Her hair was tied into a simple bow. She glanced at Shen Ping and said, “Husband, 1 heard from the rogue cultivators that there’s a hot spring in Maple Forest Mountain. It’s quite spiritual. You can admire it.”
Shen Ping’s expression changed slightly. He smiled and looked sideways. “Qing’er, what about you? Do you want to go over?”
Luo Qing shook her head. “Husband, I’ll just stay here.”
Seeing this, Shen Ping did not force her and left with Yu Yan. Pei Huoyu waved her hand indifferently, and two jade-colored prayer mats floated to the ground. “Have a seat.”
Luo Qing said respectfully, “Thank you, Senior Pei.”
The two of them quickly sat cross-legged on the futon and closed their eyes to rest.
A mont later, in the depths of the maple forest. The surface of the hot spring was steaming.
Shen Ping swept his gaze over and swept it with his magic powers. After confirming that there was no problem, he took out a few array flags and threw them around. Imdiately, the light distorted, and his and Yu Yan’s figures gradually blurred and disappeared.
Not long after, within the range of the array flag, the violent sound of water accompanied by a lodious song faintly spread. This song seed to be crying, either llow or impassioned, playing the natural music of the forest.
The array flag flashed when the spring cald down, and two figures walked out. The blush on Yu Yan’s face dissipated, and a relaxed smile appeared on her lips. “The environnt in the forest and wilderness is really smoothing. 1 feel much better now.” She kissed Shen Ping on the cheek. “I’m going to look for Yun’er and Ying’er. Husband, you can admire the beauty of the mountain scenery here.”
Her figure flickered and Yu Yan had already disappeared.
Shen Ping looked at the fluorescent light of the robe and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Over the past few days, Yu Yan’s cultivation state of mind had gradually accumulated. No matter how much he comforted her, it was useless. That was why he brought his wife and concubines out for a spring stroll at this ti.
Now, it seed that the effect was not bad. At least at this mont, Yu Yan’s depressed mood was relieved.
“I’ll have to co out a few tis in the next few months.” He sighed softly.
If a cultivator’s ntal state made a mistake, it would affect the efficiency of their cultivation. If it was serious, it would breed inner demons. Especially at the ninth level of the Qi Refinent realm, one had to be calm and confident. Otherwise, even if there were enough resources, there was a high chance of failure in Foundation Establishnt.
He put away his emotions. Shen Ping walked slowly in the forest and opened the virtual interface.
[Talisman Dao Mystique: Sea of Talisman (Thousand Talismans) (3,160/30,000)]
[Talisman Master: Low-grade Level 3 (50,000/1,200,000)]
[Life Divine Talisman: Second (312/10,000)]
[Your dao companion has deep feelings for you. Current favorability: 100 100]
[Inner Charm Fire Body Effect: You have received an additional divine sense
1]
[Duo Cultivation Bonus: 8]
[Silver Bonus: 10]
[Puppet Master: Mid-grade Level 2 (130,000/300,000)]
[Divine sense: Late-stage Foundation Establishnt (180,000/250,000)]
[tal Spiritual Root: Top-grade (140,000/150,000)]
[Wood Spiritual Root: Top-grade (140,000/150,000)]
His gaze swept across the attributes of all the virtual boxes. In the end, it landed on the tal and wood spiritual roots. The level of the Dao of Talismans had already broken through to the third level in the middle of the first month.
As for the grade of the spiritual root, it had been accumulating day and night. However, because Bai Yuying was a silver virtual fra, the bonus was relatively small. After coming to Qingyang City for more than four years, there was finally hope of a breakthrough.
At his current speed, he would be able to break through the bottleneck with his top-grade tal and wood spiritual roots in another three months.
The support of a top-grade spiritual root played a crucial role in building his foundation so quickly.
Although after absorbing the blood of the strange beast pattern, his reliance on the tal-Wood Spirit Root at the Foundation Establishnt realm had decreased greatly, the foundation of the Spirit Root as a cultivator could not be ignored.
He took a few glances before Shen Ping put away the virtual interface. Looking at the rolling mountains in the distance, his heart strangely beca unprecedentedly calm. He had not been in this state for a long ti.
And with the silence, the past four years of cultivation in Qingyang City gradually appeared in his mind. Those scenes, especially the bits and pieces of interaction with his wife and concubines, kept flickering.
There was warmth, joy, and worry.
However, after he reached the Foundation Establishnt realm and experienced the ridiculous release of those few days, he spent less and less ti on his wife and concubines. Strengthening his physique was one thing, but most of it was because he had lost his calmness and patience.
“I’ve changed.” Shen Ping suddenly sighed when he ca back to his senses. He could use words to warm his wife and concubines, but he could not warm his increasingly cold and busy heart.
That kind of neglect.
That kind of impatience.
It was hard to hide in life. There was a huge gap between Qi Refinent and Foundation Establishnt, let alone the Golden Core! Even if he restrained his aura and pressure, the invisible pressure would always accumulate in the hearts of his wife and concubines.
If not for Yu Yan’s ntal state this ti, there was no silence at this mont. He might not even realize it.
Shen Ping looked up at the scenery of the maple forest again. He seed to hear the laughter of his wife and concubines in the distance and Wang Yun’s voice. In a flash, it was as if he had returned to the narrow and dark wooden house. He vaguely saw a Talisman Master buried on the table. There was caution and reverence on his face. Just like his current wife and concubines.
And they could only rely on their husband. They could only rely on the warmth of being closely connected day and night.
It was until this mont that Shen Ping suddenly woke up. What did Yu Yan an by useless that day? For so reason, his heart ached faintly. He subconsciously placed his palm on it, and his heartbeat sped up. “It’s still hot.”
Tears quietly rolled down the corners of Shen Ping’s eyes, but a smile appeared on his face.
They ca back from his spring trip. He did not change much as usual, but the dual cultivation ti every day was increasing bit by bit. The corresponding ditation and cultivation kept compressing. In just half a month, it was compressed to only two hours. At the sa ti, the cultivation arrangents quietly changed.
It was the middle of the night. Shen Ping ended his study of the Talisman Scripture in advance and went to the bedroom. His wife and concubines were already waiting on the bed.
Bai Yuying was only wearing a purple undergarnt. She straightened up and stretched out her arms coquettishly. “Hehe, Husband, I knew you would co at this ti today. Ying’er wants to hug you.”
Shen Ping smiled and went forward to hug Bai Yuying’s slender waist. He kissed her cheek. “You’re so naughty.”
Bai Yuying took the opportunity to wrap her arms around Shen Ping’s broad back and stuck out her tongue. “Ying’er can’t wait anymore. She wants Hubby’s rod to serve her… All, Hubby, you ambushed again!”
His wife, who was beside him, covered her mouth and smiled. “Sister Ying’er, you can’t bla Husband. Who asked you not to be on guard at all?”
Amidst laughter, the bed swayed gently. There was no Snow Ganoderma Pill. There was no Spirit Jade Ginseng Ointnt. Shen Ping’s every move was very light and slow, as if he wanted to lt his wife and concubines into his heart. The crystal lights in the bedroom seed to have ward up a little. The purple and pink gauze curtain on the bed slowly fell, and the hazy figure surged with moving joy.
At midnight, after resting for a while, Shen Ping stepped into the room. The sll of petals lingered in the hot air of the wooden bucket. Yu Yan’s black hair fell to the side of her left shoulder. She stretched out her foot and placed it by the side of the wooden bucket. Her taut and slender fair skin had a moist luster.
As the broad figure approached, she sniffed lightly, and a smile flashed across her eyes. “The sll on my husband’s body is very familiar. I want to add a different sll.”
“Is it the sweet mountain spring water? Or the sll of grapefruits?” As Shen Ping spoke, he circled behind Yu Yan and probed the water along her shoulders.
Yu Yan closed her eyes. Her voice trembled slightly. “Which one do you like, Husband?”
Shen Ping smiled warmly and whispered into her ear, “Both. If it’s hot, 1 like it even more.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the light of the Dao technique had already begun to flicker. However, compared to before, the battles had beco gentler. The two of them seed to be completely imrsed in the endless path of love. They had just ended the exchange when Shen Ping’s expression suddenly changed.
Yu Yan said nervously, “Husband, what’s wrong?”
“A good thing. I’m about to break through to a certain cultivation technique.” Shen Ping gave her an apologetic look and quickly walked to the quiet room in the spirit pool. After sitting down cross-legged, he took a deep breath and opened the virtual interface.
There were many changes on it.
[Constitution: Jade Bone Body (Can be broken through)]
He was happy when he saw this. The improvent in physique brought about by the imrsive dual cultivation finally underwent a change over ti.
“Breakthrough!”
