Chapter 316: Promoting to the Mid-Stage of Nascent Soul

A few days later.

On the Kurong Sect island, the Ancient Teleportation Array suddenly lit up with light.

Whoosh!

Instantly, two figures appeared within the Ancient Teleportation Array; they were none other than one of Zhou Sui's clones and the unconscious Hehuan Sect Nascent Soul Cultivator, Xia Shuiyang.

The reason Xia Shuiyang had been unconscious for so long was naturally because the clone Zhou Sui had fed her a Fourth-Tier Soul-Bewitching Pill; even a Nascent Soul Cultivator would be unconscious for several days after taking it.

"You actually brought back a Nascent Soul female cultivator?"

At this moment, the main body of Zhou Sui flashed over and arrived at the Ancient Teleportation Array as well. Seeing Xia Shuiyang unconscious on the ground, a look of helplessness appeared on his face.

After all, this was his clone's own arbitrary action, and he could do nothing about it.

Only now did he receive the specific information.

But there was no helping that.

As the number of clones he nurtured grew, it was naturally impossible to monitor every action of every clone at all times.

Only at critical moments would he actively acquire the memories from his clones.

Under normal circumstances, he didn't pay much attention to what the clones did; the clones all had a certain degree of autonomy.

They could act on their own.

It was precisely because of this that such a thing had happened.

But it had to be said.

The clone that went to the Eastern Wasteland Continent this time had truly performed a great service.

Not only did it obtain various intelligence regarding the Eastern Wasteland Continent, but it also brought back the Heaven and Earth Spirit Root, the Evergreen Vine, completely fulfilling the task he had assigned.

It could only be said that this operation was a complete success.

"Wh-where is this place?"

At this very moment, Xia Shuiyang, who had previously been in a coma, also woke up, and she slowly opened her eyes wide.

Out of the instinct of a Nascent Soul Cultivator, she became vigilant at the first opportunity. She looked around and discovered that she had actually appeared in an extremely unfamiliar place.

"Oh, this is the Canglan Sea; it is no longer the Eastern Wasteland Continent."

Zhou Sui spoke, looking at this Hehuan Sect female cultivator, Xia Shuiyang.

It had to be said that this woman was worthy of being a True Disciple of a Spirit Severing sect; both her appearance and figure were top-tier. Her appearance was stunningly beautiful, and her figure was enchanting, not in the slightest inferior to Qian Ziyun, Chu Dieyi, and other peerless beauties.

Moreover, because she practiced the Hehuan Sect's town-sect technique, the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, she herself was even more like a pure jade maiden, as if she were a woman who had never experienced the affairs of men, pure and moving.

If it weren't for knowing she was a Hehuan Sect cultivator, others would likely have mistaken her for a saintess of a Daoist sect.

One could not see even the slightest hint of a demoness about her.

"Who, who are you?"

Xia Shuiyang widened her beautiful eyes; she saw Zhou Sui at the very first moment.

At this instant, she felt as if her heart had stopped, and there was a feeling of suffocation.

Because the man before her eyes was simply too handsome, as if he were an existence that had stolen the creation of heaven and earth, like an immortal descended from the heavens. Anyone in front of this man would feel inferior.

Especially those eyes, like stars, extremely brilliant and shining, as if they wanted to suck her very Soul into the other's pupils.

She had originally thought that looking at any man was like looking at a stray dog.

But now, after seeing this man, she truly knew what it meant to fall in love at first sight.

She never imagined that there could be a man in the world handsome to such a degree.

Even those True Disciples of Spirit Severing sects were merely stray dogs compared to him, not worth mentioning at all.

"Oh, has Fellow Daoist Xia forgotten?"

"You sold the Evergreen Vine to me."

Zhou Sui said.

"Wait, you are Zhou Sui?"

"How is that possible? Zhou Sui was just an ordinary-looking cultivator."

"So that's how it is; this is your true appearance now, and before was merely a disguise."

Xia Shuiyang understood in an instant.

She had suspected before that this man might be disguised, and now seeing him, it was indeed so.

No wonder she felt this man's appearance was a bit discordant.

But she also hadn't expected this man to be handsome to this degree; it was truly too exaggerated.

There was simply not a single part of him that was imperfect.

If she were to fall into the hands of such a man, even if he did whatever he wanted to her, she would probably be willing.

Thinking of this, her pretty face flushed red, and her heart stirred.

This was the first time in her life she had such a feeling; it seemed that at this moment, the temperature of her body was rising, unable to be suppressed.

What?!

At this time, Zhou Sui blinked his eyes. He sensed that Xia Shuiyang's favorability toward him had reached the point of perfection in an instant, rising to a level where it could no longer rise.

He never expected that winning over this woman would be so easy, without any effort at all.

It could only be said that this woman was a fan of good looks.

After seeing him, she fell in love uncontrollably.

Of course, ever since being constantly tempered by the power of the Infatuation Gu, his appearance had indeed become increasingly perfect.

Every move he made contained immense charm.

If he were to walk outside in his true appearance, he didn't know how many female cultivators would be drawn to him.

Becoming a heartthrob would also be an easy task.

"To be so comfortable, you haven't forgotten, have you?"

"The reason why you were captured by me in the first place."

Zhou Sui looked down at Xia Shuiyang from a high position, attempting to threaten her fiercely.

"I, I know."

"It is because I saw Young Master Zhou's secret that I was captured by you, Young Master Zhou."

"In order to save my own life, I am willing to be a slave and a maid; I only hope Young Master Zhou can spare my life."

"Of course, whatever Young Master Zhou wants to do to me, I have no way to resist."

"After all, my life is already in the hands of Young Master Zhou."

Hearing this, Xia Shuiyang not only did not feel afraid, but instead became amorous; she looked at Zhou Sui with seductive eyes, revealing an appearance of letting him do as he pleased.

It was as if she had already completely resigned herself to her fate.

No, it was not as simple as resigning to fate; she even wanted to offer herself voluntarily.

"This, I actually didn't mean that."

Zhou Sui blinked his eyes.

He did not expect this woman to be so proactive, which was completely beyond his expectations.

"Young Master Zhou need not say more, I understand your meaning very well."

"All of this is done voluntarily by this slave."

"I only hope Young Master Zhou will be gentle, after all, it is my first time."

Xia Shuiyang's pretty face flushed red, and she boldly threw herself at him, displaying the flair of a female Cultivator from the Hehuan Sect.

What?!

Suddenly, Zhou Sui felt a soft body press against his own, and at the same time, an intoxicating fragrance rushed toward him, spreading throughout his entire body almost instantly.

Soft jade and fragrant embrace, this was a true soft jade and fragrant embrace.

Clearly, this woman was absolutely the best of the best.

At this moment, the Dragon Elephant Bloodline within his body also began to boil, completely unable to be suppressed.

Whoosh!

Thinking of this, Zhou Sui no longer hesitated.

Not long after, sounds of the Dao echoed from within the bedroom.

…………

One day later.

Kurong Sect island, an Immortal Palace.

"You engaged in Dual Cultivation with your Dao Companion, obtained vast Pure Yin Energy, and your cultivation level has increased to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage."

"Your Spirit Root aptitude has been improved to a certain extent."

"You have obtained cultivation experience from your Dao Companion."

"The Infatuation Gu feels very joyful; it has obtained a large amount of love and affection, achieved a certain degree of growth, and it hopes the Host can collect more love."

At this moment, Zhou Sui opened his eyes, feeling the massive amount of information transmitted from the Infatuation Gu.

He immediately realized that after Dual Cultivation with the Hehuan Sect female Cultivator Xia Shuiyang, he had obtained her vast Pure Yin Energy.

Originally, his cultivation was already at the perfection of the Nascent Soul Early Stage, only a step away from the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

But now, thanks to this massive energy, it helped him take that final step, breaking through the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul Early Stage, and successfully advancing to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

In fact, for a Nascent Soul Cultivator, this is a bottleneck that is quite difficult to break through.

It is very normal for ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators to be unable to break through even in a lifetime, remaining at the Nascent Soul Early Stage.

It can be said that the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Middle Stage is already sufficiently powerful.

Even when facing a Great Cultivator of the Nascent Soul Late Stage, one has a certain degree of power to resist.

Of course, according to Zhou Sui's aptitude and foundation, breaking through to become a Nascent Soul Middle Stage was a certainty.

But due to Xia Shuiyang's help, it saved him a large amount of time spent in bitter cultivation.

For a Cultivator, being able to save time means extending one's own lifespan.

The benefits obtained from this are naturally self-evident.

Even though Zhou Sui possesses a long lifespan, he still hopes his cultivation speed can be a bit faster.

"Interesting, is this the Nascent Soul Middle Stage?"

Zhou Sui's divine sense perceived the Nascent Soul deep within his Dantian Qi Sea; at this very moment, the Nascent Soul had grown from a one or two-year-old infant into a five or six-year-old child.

It was as if it had grown from an infant who knew nothing into a child who had learned to speak, walk, run, and write.

The strength and abilities within had improved far, far too much.

It simply could not be mentioned in the same breath.

"Three times, the Nascent Soul Dharma Power in my body has increased by at least three times compared to before."

A glimmer of light appeared in Zhou Sui's eyes.

He discovered that the Nascent Soul Dharma Power in his body had increased by three times compared to before, and the vast Nascent Soul Dharma Power flowed through every meridian in his body, while also surging into his Dantian Qi Sea.

It was as if a vast river was flowing, making a rumbling sound.

It is no wonder that Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivators are so much more powerful than Nascent Soul Early Stage Cultivators.

The gap in Dharma Power alone is already this astonishing.

Not to mention other aspects.

It can be said that after advancing to the Nascent Soul Realm, every step forward creates a huge gap.

Sometimes everyone is a Nascent Soul Ancestor, but their combat power is worlds apart.

This is one of the reasons.

"The power of my divine sense has also increased."

"At the very least, it has increased to a range of three thousand miles."

"Such a magnitude of divine sense is probably comparable to that possessed by a Transformation Spirit Mid-Stage cultivator."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

His divine sense continuously expanded outward, covering an area with a radius of three thousand miles; every part of this region was within the coverage of his divine sense, and he could perceive every single spot clearly.

One must know that the divine sense range of an ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator is only a few hundred miles.

But now, his divine sense range has reached three thousand miles, which is simply more than ten times stronger than an ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator.

However, this is his innate talent of the soul, which is simply incomparable to other Nascent Soul Cultivators.

"If I use Heart Eye Power, then my observation range could probably expand to an area of thirty thousand miles."

"This is truly too exaggerated."

"With such a vast perception range, no cultivator would be able to hide from me."

Zhou Sui was very excited; his Heart Eye Power expanded outward like a giant ball of light from the Heart Eye, covering an area with a radius of thirty thousand miles, simply three hundred and sixty degrees without any blind spots.

No matter any slight movement in this area, it could not escape his perception and capture.

Compared to the radar of his past life, it is unknown how many times stronger it is.

Of course, the increase in divine sense power also allowed the power of his Nascent Soul Dharma Domain to be enhanced.

It seems that with a light movement, he could manipulate the Spirit Qi of heaven and earth within a three-thousand-mile area.

The destructive power caused by this is simply unimaginable, like the might of heaven.

Boom~~

Thinking of this, he moved his mind and operated his Nascent Soul Dharma Domain; a giant palm made of Spirit Qi immediately appeared a thousand miles away, almost condensed into substance, like the giant palm of a heavenly god.

The next second, this giant palm descended from the sky and slapped heavily onto the ground.

Instantly, a large mountain was flattened, sunken, completely shattered, and turned into dust.

A giant palm print, a hundred miles in size and clearly visible, also appeared on the earth.

Densely packed cracks emerged all around.

Many rocks and Minerals were shaken into powder and vanished into thin air.

One can imagine that the terrifying nature of this palm strike is beyond imagination.

"The Nascent Soul Middle Stage realm has brought the manipulation of heaven and earth Spirit Qi to a higher level."

"The power unleashed is at least several times that of a Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator."

"It is no wonder that after ascending to Nascent Soul, it is almost impossible to challenge across levels."

"Even for each small realm, the gap in strength between each other is quite huge."

Zhou Sui was very emotional.

He felt that his manipulation of heaven and earth Spirit Qi had become even more handy.

Even if he did not use any Gu Insects and purely used the power of his own body, he could fight with a Nascent Soul Late Stage Great Cultivator, or even defeat them, leaving the enemy with no way to escape.

This is the terrifying combat power he currently possesses.

It can be said that after reaching this realm, he is basically invincible in the Nascent Soul Realm.

Unless a Transformation God cultivator takes action personally, it is impossible for anyone to do anything to him.

"It seems that the Dragon Elephant Bloodline in my body has also been improved to a certain extent."

"After ascending to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, the tempering of the body by Nascent Soul Dharma Power has also become more powerful."

"If I continue to temper it like this, I am afraid my body will be able to rival a Spirit Severing Body Cultivator."

Zhou Sui rubbed his chin.

He felt the powerful Dragon Elephant Power surging within his body, and the blood and Qi in his body were like molten lava, continuously flowing through every blood vessel in his body and every part of his body.

Deep within his heart, densely packed Dragon Elephant Runes emerged.

It seemed that a divine dragon and an ancient divine elephant were residing inside.

These two forces were intertwined, as if gestating an even greater power.

Vaguely, the figures of a divine dragon and a divine elephant fighting seemed to appear behind him.

Every collision seemed to produce the roaring of the Dao, and sounds of the Dao echoed.

It was as if many laws were clashing.

This also gave him great inspiration, providing him with enlightenment and causing him to fall into a state of sudden enlightenment.

Thinking of this, Zhou Sui subconsciously opened the Virtual Panel, wanting to see his current body data.

After all, after ascending to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, various abilities must have been improved significantly.

【Host: Zhou Sui, Cultivation: Nascent Soul Middle Stage (Progress 1%), Lifespan: 145 (20000) years】

【Aptitude: Second Grade Spiritual Root (80%)】

【Sword Dao: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade (59%)】

【Rune: Fourth-Tier Low-Grade (55%)】

【Array Formation: Tier 4 Upper Grade (50%)】

【Alchemist: Tier 4 Upper Grade (30%)】

【Artifact Refining: Fourth-Tier Low-Grade (65%)】

【Phantom Demon Transformation Art: Grandmaster (99%)】

【Five Elements Alchemy Formula: Grandmaster (99%)】

【Demon Summoning Heart Sutra: Demon Seed, Summon Demon】

【Seven Apertures Exquisite Book: Heart Eye Identifying Objects, Heart Eye Insight, Heart Eye Communicating Language】

【Execution Immortal Sword Formula: First Form Formless Sword Light】

【Withered Glory Profound Light Art: Minor Achievement, Ancient Profound Turtle Art: Second Layer, Void Soul Thorn: Major Achievement, Fireball Technique: Grandmaster, Wind Blade Technique: Grandmaster, Golden Light Technique: Grandmaster, Cold Ice Technique: Grandmaster, Spring Breeze Turns to Rain Technique: Grandmaster, Lightning Summoning Technique: Grandmaster...】

【Infatuation Gu: Fifth-tier Middle-Grade, Clone Gu: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade, Wine Insect: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade, Gold-Eating Insect: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade, Book Gu: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade, Dream Soul Gu: Tier 4 Upper Grade, Dragon Elephant Gu: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade, Golden Light Myriad Poison Gu: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade, Teleportation Gu: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade, Array Heart Gu: Fifth-tier Upper Grade, Object Seeking Gu: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade, Tribulation Thunder Gu: Tier 4 Upper Grade, Medicine Gu: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade.】

Suddenly, a series of magnificent data immediately appeared before him.

Of course, skills such as the hundred arts of immortal cultivation would naturally not receive much improvement.

After all, his cultivation level had increased, but that did not mean his techniques would also improve; they still required study and practice.

"As expected, my lifespan has increased; I didn't expect it to increase by this much."

"A longevity of twenty thousand years is truly too exaggerated."

Zhou Sui was very excited.

It was no wonder he felt that the life energy in his body had received a massive boost; it turned out his lifespan had increased to twenty thousand years, which was a quite exaggerated length of longevity.

Even those Monster Beasts known for their longevity might not compare to him now.

It could be said that he could now be considered a true old monster, practically having boundless longevity.

"The power of the Gu Insects has also increased."

Zhou Sui calmed down at this moment, sensing the power of each of the Gu Insects on his body.

As his cultivation advanced to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, the power of the major Gu Insects also received further improvement, all having advanced to the Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade realm.

Compared to before, they were naturally more than a notch stronger.

Of course, there were also Gu Insects that did not advance.

For example, the Dream Soul Gu was still Tier 4 Upper Grade, and the Array Heart Gu was still Fifth-tier Upper Grade.

However, it was only natural that they did not advance.

They had almost grown to a limit.

If they wanted to improve further, they would likely need to accumulate more energy.

"Hmm."

At this time, Xia Shuiyang also woke up faintly, her pretty face flushed red.

Thinking of what happened yesterday, she was extremely shy; she did not expect that she would fall into the hands of this man she had not known for long just like that—this was simply love at first sight.

But there was no helping it; who let this man be handsome to such a degree.

Compared to him, she even felt a sense of inferiority.

"No way, my cultivation has actually also received an advancement."

"Has it already advanced to the Nascent Soul Late Stage?"

At this very moment, Xia Shuiyang also discovered the cultivation within her body; compared to before, it had increased many times over, unexpectedly becoming a Great Cultivator of the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

One must know that even the Hehuan Sect, a sect with a Spirit Severing Venerable, did not have many Great Cultivators of this level.

Once one advances to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, one is the strongest person aside from a Spirit Severing Venerable.

Previously, she only had high hopes of becoming the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect.

But now, it was almost certain that she would become the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect; no one could compete with her.

After all, she had become a Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivator at only four hundred and fifty years old.

Even looking across the entire Eastern Wasteland Continent, there were not many such people.

She dared not say she would definitely become a Spirit Severing Venerable in the future.

But at the very least, the probability of success was unknown how many times higher than other Great Cultivators of the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

"Is the Pure Yang Qi on this man actually this dense?"

"It even broke through the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul Late Stage with such ease."

Xia Shuiyang was overjoyed.

Her initial plan was only to have this man become her Cauldron to help her advance to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, but the success probability was only half; it might not have succeeded.

But now, it was a one hundred percent breakthrough.

Compared to her previous conception, it was unknown how many times better it was.

At this moment, she sensed her body filled with vast Pure Yang Qi, merging with the Pure Yin Qi in her body, reaching a realm where water and fire blended and Yin and Yang became one.

At this time, she sensed the formidable nature of the Hehuan Sect's sect-protecting technique, the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra.

It seemed to contain the mysteries of the Yin-Yang Great Dao, unfathomable.

"Finally awake?"

"I heard that the Hehuan Sect's Jade Maiden Heart Sutra cannot be practiced with men, and now you have lost your primordial Yin."

"I wonder if it will have an impact on you?"

Zhou Sui sensed Xia Shuiyang's aura, looking at the peerless beauty in his arms.

To tell the truth, she was worthy of being the Saintess of the Hehuan Sect; not only did she possess the aptitude of a Heavenly Spirit Root, but she also possessed the special Water-Ze Body, her body soft to an incredible degree.

It could be said that she brought him a different feeling, infinitely profound.

But he was still a bit worried that this beauty before him might suffer bad effects on her body due to the technique.

"Husband."

"The Jade Maiden Heart Sutra has two cultivation directions."

"One is naturally the Jade Maiden, which requires maintaining a body of ice-clear and jade-pure, and absolutely cannot be practiced with men."

"But in this way, one needs to suffer the torment of Pure Yin Qi at all times, as if being burned by raging flames."

"If one does not have a firm Dao Heart, it is simply impossible to endure."

"In the entire Hehuan Sect, only the Sect Master can achieve this point and cultivate to the Spirit Severing realm."

"And it was precisely because I could cultivate to the Nascent Soul Realm that I was valued by the Sect Master and became the next Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect."

Xia Shuiyang said in a deep voice, explaining the special aspects of this cultivation technique.

"Then what about the second direction?"

Zhou Sui asked curiously.

"The second direction is to be a jade maiden, to be dissolute and unrestrained, doing whatever one pleases."

"Cultivating with different men, absorbing the essence Qi from their bodies to rapidly strengthen one's own cultivation."

"The problem is, if one does this, the essence Qi from different men mixes together, becoming incredibly impure, which also causes one's own Dharma Power to lose its purity, requiring a large amount of Spirit Medicine to help wash away the impurities in the Dharma Power."

"Moreover, the higher the cultivation, the more terrifying the impurities become; in the end, they simply cannot be expelled."

"Therefore, one can at most cultivate to the Nascent Soul Realm and then can never progress further."

"Once this direction is chosen, there is basically no hope for Spirit Severing."

Xia Shuiyang said in a deep voice.

"No way, if that's the case, wouldn't that ruin your path of the Dao?"

Zhou Sui frowned.

He hadn't expected the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra to have such side effects.

"Husband, there is no need to worry."

"Actually, the reason why the second path is so difficult and hinders the path of the Dao,"

"is simply because those female cultivators were dissolute and chose too many men."

"If one only chooses one man and cultivates with a fixed Dao Companion, this kind of thing will not happen."

"On the contrary, the speed of cultivation would be even faster than the first path."

"I suspect that the true way to cultivate the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra should be the second path."

Xia Shuiyang felt that after she advanced to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, she had a deeper understanding of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra.

It should be second only to her master, the Hehuan Sect Sect Master.

"If that's the case, why don't the female cultivators of the Hehuan Sect do that?"

Zhou Sui blinked.

He hadn't expected that the female cultivators of the Hehuan Sect were actually "pure love warriors" at heart.

He had thought they were born to be dissolute.

"Well, this is also something that can't be helped."

"Because every time one cultivates the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, the amount of essence Qi that needs to be absorbed is truly too much."

"How could an ordinary male cultivator withstand it?"

"Once or twice is fine, but after many times, the male cultivator becomes a dried-up husk."

"It's not that the female cultivators of my Hehuan Sect don't want to choose a fixed Dao Companion, it's just a pity that such men almost don't exist."

"And the higher the cultivation, the more essence Qi is needed; who could possibly support that?"

"Once they can't support it, added to the insatiable demands, one can only set their sights on other men."

"This cannot be blamed on the sisters of my Hehuan Sect."

Xia Shuiyang said with great helplessness.

At the beginning, the female cultivators of the Hehuan Sect naturally wanted to choose a fixed Dao Companion.

The problem was that as time passed and their cultivation grew higher, they became like wolves and tigers; the fixed Dao Companion couldn't withstand it, and without needing to say anything, they would be scared away.

No man dared to stay by the side of a Hehuan Sect female cultivator.

Yet due to the issues with the cultivation technique, the Hehuan Sect female cultivators could only choose other men.

As time went on, they had more and more partners.

After all, there has only ever been the ox that was worked to death, never the field that was plowed to ruin.

"However, Husband is different."

"The essence Qi in Husband's body is unimaginably vast, simply like the ocean, unfathomable."

"No matter how I absorb it, there is no way to drain the essence Qi from Husband's body."

"So Husband and I are simply a match made in heaven."

Xia Shuiyang looked at Zhou Sui with seductive eyes.

She had originally been worried that she would drain this man's essence Qi, but who could have imagined it was impossible to drain.

The Pure Yang Qi in this man's body was endless and unfathomable.

She had never seen such a man before; even a Pure Yang Body probably couldn't compare.

Therefore, she felt that she had finally found a Dao Companion suitable for herself.

With Husband's help, her becoming a Transformation God is probably just around the corner.

"If that's the case, how exactly did the Hehuan Sect Sect Master manage it?"

"How on earth did she advance to the Spirit Severing realm?"

Zhou Sui asked curiously, because according to what Xia Shuiyang said, there shouldn't be any female cultivator who could cultivate the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra to the Spirit Severing realm, yet the Hehuan Sect Sect Master had done exactly that, which was truly inconceivable.

He felt that there must be some unknown secrets involved.

"Well, that is because Master is a natural stone woman."

"So no matter what she does, she is unable to cultivate with men."

"It is precisely because of this that she is perfectly compatible with this technique, allowing her to cultivate it to the Spirit Severing realm."

"Of course, just having the constitution of a natural stone woman is not enough; more importantly, Master is also a Heavenly Spirit Root cultivator. Only with the two combined could she achieve what she has today."

Xia Shuiyang explained.

To be honest, if it is a naturally born stone woman, even among mortals, there are some women with similar constitutions.

The problem is that when combined with a Heavenly Spirit Root, the probability of this is pitifully low.

Among hundreds of millions of female cultivators, one cannot even be found.

The Hehuan Sect also wants to find female cultivators with similar constitutions, but it is a pity that they cannot be found.

Such female cultivators are simply impossible to find even if one seeks them.

"In that case, are you going back to the Hehuan Sect or not?"

Zhou Sui asked, looking at Xia Shuiyang.

"Husband, I naturally follow my husband wherever he goes."

"Besides, this is the Canglan Sea, not the Eastern Wasteland Continent."

"Even the Hehuan Sect cannot find me."

"More importantly, I have already obtained the full inheritance of the Hehuan Sect, so it doesn't matter even if I don't go back."

"Staying with my husband now is what matters most."

Xia Shuiyang felt that she would most likely be unable to leave the man before her; after all, her own cultivation also required her to stay with this man, and returning to the Hehuan Sect would instead hinder her cultivation.

As for the position of Hehuan Sect Sect Master, it was actually not that important.

What was more important was cultivation level.

If she were a Transformation God, who would dare to compete with her for the position of Hehuan Sect Sect Master?

"Alright, since that is the case, then stay."

Zhou Sui nodded.

He did not need Xia Shuiyang to do anything; as long as she stayed obediently by his side and acted as a pretty ornament, that would suffice.

Moreover, Xia Shuiyang's Water-Ze Body was indeed of great use to him.

Every time they cultivated, he could benefit greatly.

"Husband."

Xia Shuiyang looked at Zhou Sui with her large, watery eyes, her pretty face flushed red, wanting to speak but hesitating, yet she had completely expressed her meaning.

This Hehuan Sect enchantress!

Hearing this, how could Zhou Sui hold back? Fortunately, he possessed a Dragon Elephant Body and had infinite stamina.

If it were an ordinary man, he would have likely collapsed long ago.

It could be said that a Hehuan Sect enchantress is not something an ordinary person can endure.

…………

Several days later.

Zhou Sui had also cultivated with Xia Shuiyang for several days, thoroughly helping Xia Shuiyang consolidate her Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivation, and only stopped this session of cultivation when he was exhausted.

It was also fortunate that his stamina was comparable to a true dragon, otherwise he might not have been able to hold on.

At this time, Xia Shuiyang also entered the Cave Abode to cultivate in seclusion.

After all, she had just advanced to the Nascent Soul Late Stage realm, and with her cultivation level improved, she naturally needed to perceive the power within her body.

Only in this way could she consolidate her Dao foundation and facilitate her next breakthrough.

"Right, let me first take a look at the Treasure left behind by the four Li brothers."

Zhou Sui rubbed his chin, thinking of the Storage Bags of the four Nascent Soul Cultivators he had obtained on the Eastern Wasteland Continent.

These four Li brothers were not simple.

In their youth, they had obtained an inheritance left by a Transformation God Relic; they seemed to be descendants of the Refining Treasure Sect, a Transformation God sect from the Ancient Era, and those four Nascent Soul Puppets were passed down from the Refining Treasure Sect.

Even after tens of thousands of years, they could still be used now.

One could imagine that there must be a large amount of Treasure left inside the Storage Bags of these four Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Thinking of this, he immediately took out these four Storage Bags, swept them with his divine sense, and perceived the many Treasures inside the Storage Bags.
