Chapter 22: Secluded Cultivation Breakthrough – Pure Yang Sacred Body, Complete! ( Part 1 )

And once in the underworld, the soul is either reincarnated through the Six Paths of Rebirth or left to suffer for its earthly sins.

The reason this belief dominates among mortals is largely due to the needs of rulers — but in ancient tis, no real cultivator believed in such stories.

Once a person’s vitality is extinguished, the soul either disintegrates imdiately or is gradually worn away by ti.

Though the spiritual energy on Mount Zhongnan is richer than in most places, Lin Chaoying has been dead for decades. Wang Xuan wasn’t entirely sure of her soul’s current state.

As long as there was even a single wisp of soul remaining, however, he could use this technique to reforge it.

“That’s the most crucial part! The next step is nourishing — using soul to nourish soul!”

What does that an, exactly?

Simply put: one body, two souls!

To reduce rejection between the two souls, this technique is usually perford using a descendant who shares blood ties.

But Lin Chaoying had died a virgin.

Whether she had any living relatives in the world was anyone’s guess.

So Wang Xuan could only fall back on the next best option.

Upon hearing this explanation, Xiaolongnü’s expression turned resolute. “I’ll do it,” she said.

Just then, a voice echoed from outside the tomb.

“No, Junior Sister — let do it instead!”

As the words fell, Li Mochou and Huang Rong entered one after the other.

Clearly, they had been eavesdropping.

“As your senior, how can I let you take on sothing this dangerous?” Li Mochou smiled and patted Xiaolongnü’s shoulder.

Wang Xuan hadn’t ntioned the full risks of the soul-forging process, but all of them were sharp enough to understand the implications.

So Li Mochou volunteered to take Xiaolongnü’s place.

“No. You’ve already been expelled from the sect — reviving Ancestor-Grandmother has nothing to do with you!” Xiaolongnü clearly wasn’t willing to give in.

She turned to look at Wang Xuan.

Li Mochou followed her gaze — it was obvious they wanted him to choose.

Good grief, is this so kind of emotional battlefield?

At that mont, Huang Rong chuckled and stepped forward.

“You both care for each other — that’s wonderful. But once Lin Senior’s soul is recondensed, she’ll likely retain so awareness. Let’s let her choose, shall we?”

Hearing this, Xiaolongnü and Li Mochou exchanged a glance and nodded in agreent.

Then, Wang Xuan began preparing for seclusion.

The higher his cultivation, the lower the risk when reviving Lin Chaoying.

He didn’t want anything to go wrong — whether Xiaolongnü or Li Mochou beca the vessel, he cherished them both.

So, he would attempt to reach the peak of Qi Refining — the tenth level.

Before retreating into seclusion, Wang Xuan asked Huang Rong to give Granny Sun and Hong Lingbo a hundred silver taels and send them away from the tomb.

He had no choice — keeping them around during the process would be far too awkward.

“The first three days… I’ll go in instead of my junior sister,” Li Mochou offered.

She was excited for cultivation, but out of consideration for Xiaolongnü’s shyness, she decided to give her so ti to adjust.

Huang Rong naturally had no objection.

“But if you go in, your junior sister will find out about… us.”

“She was bound to find out eventually. It’s not sothing we can hide forever.”

Naturally, once Xiaolongnü found out the truth behind the so-called “seclusion,” she was utterly shocked.

But by then, what was done was done. *The rice was already cooked.*¹ There was no point regretting it.

“Don’t be angry, Junior Sister! Senior Sister did it for your sake!”

Li Mochou smiled sweetly, not the least bit ashad.

In fact, she even had the gall to say:

“Don’t you want as your elder sister? I always share the best things with my darling little sister!”

Her repeated calling of “little sister” quickly overwheld Xiaolongnü.

She wasn’t like this before!

Back when she was in the tomb, she wasn’t this shaless! What on earth happened to her outside these past six months?

As a woman, does she have no sense of sha at all?

Xiaolongnü couldn’t wrap her head around it. Eventually, she turned her frustration toward Wang Xuan, blaming him for “corrupting” her senior sister into soone so… unbearable.

Wang Xuan, facing her reproachful, teary eyes, chose wisely to say nothing.

Honestly, he thought, it’s exactly Li Mochou’s lack of restraint that’s kept the atmosphere from turning completely stiff and awkward.

And so began the seclusion — half a month passed in a flash.

It might seem long, but in the world of cultivation, half a month was nothing. True cultivators could shut themselves away for centuries.

After all, Wang Xuan was only aiming for the peak of the Qi Refining stage.

Inside the ancient tomb, atop the Cold Jade Bed, Wang Xuan slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath of turbid air.

Next to him, Huang Rong, Li Mochou, and Xiaolongnü all stared wide-eyed, clearly having waited anxiously for this mont.

“How did it go?” Huang Rong was the first to ask.

Wang Xuan smiled softly.

Instead of replying imdiately, he gently pulled each of the three won in and kissed them one by one on the cheek.

From the dilapidated temple to now, over these fifteen days, he had finally broken through all 108 ridians!

Qi Refining Level Ten — Pure Yang Sacred Body, complete!

“That’s amazing!”

Li Mochou cheered first, looking more thrilled than Wang Xuan himself.

“Hehe, husband looks even more handso now!”

Before, she had still referred to him as “Young Master.” Now, with no outsiders around, she dropped all pretense.

In fact, over the past half month, she’d used every possible affectionate nickna already.

Compared to before, Wang Xuan’s temperant had beco even more ethereal and otherworldly — like an immortal descended.

After all, disciples of the Hehuan Immortal Sect were famous for making a living off their appearance.²

Of course, the Pure Yang Sacred Body brought far more than just improved looks.

For example… that thing.

Before, when he claid it was a heavenly treasure, there might’ve been so exaggeration. But now? Its effectiveness could rival a millennium-old snow lotus from Mount Tianshan!
