Chapter 443: An Old Cow Eating Tender Grass, Marrying Fengxi Daoren, Truly
Before long, Zhou Sui put away the Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill, placed it into a pill bottle, and sealed it completely to prevent this eight-Danyun Treasure Pill from flying away or its medicinal power from dissipating.
He tidied up the alchemy room and walked out from within.
He saw that Bai Sujie, Hua Siqing, Shi Yuxi, Tao Qili, Fengxi Daoren, and the others had been waiting here for a long time, each of them staring at Zhou Sui with wide, beautiful eyes, appearing extremely excited.
"Husband, was that Eight-Rank Treasure Pill successfully refined?"
Bai Sujie asked impatiently.
"Mm, it was a success, it is right here in this jade bottle."
"And it is indeed a Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill."
"It can just happen to assist Fellow Daoist Fengxi in ascending to the Great Vehicle."
Zhou Sui smiled slightly and took out a jade bottle with his right hand, inside of which was the Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill.
He looked at Fengxi Daoren tenderly.
"This."
Seeing such a gaze, Fengxi Daoren's heart trembled, her pretty face flushed red, and she was simply unable to say a single word.
Because such a favor was truly too heavy; it was almost impossible to bear.
"Is this an Eight-Rank Treasure Pill? It is truly incomparably miraculous."
"It is simply a peerless treasure; even for a True Spirit Race, it would be incomparably difficult to obtain an Eight-Rank Treasure Pill, right?"
Hua Siqing exclaimed in wonder.
Her divine sense swept over it lightly, perceiving that the treasure pill within the jade bottle shone with a brilliant light, almost like a Mysterious Heaven Treasure, with eight mysterious Danyun appearing upon it.
More importantly, it seemed to contain wisps of Dao rhyme, which were simply unfathomable.
It was completely different from other medicinal pills.
Pills below the Seven-Tier were purely a superposition of medicinal power.
But an Eight-Rank Treasure Pill was completely different; it already contained a trace of Dao rhyme.
It could help a Great Vehicle Cultivator comprehend the Heavenly Law, which was simply not something other low-tier pills could compare to.
"Of course it is difficult."
"Not to mention how scarce the number of Eight-Rank Alchemists is."
"Just the Eighth-Rank Spiritual Medicine alone is not such a simple matter to collect in its entirety."
"If Eight-Rank Treasure Pills were really that easy to refine, Great Vehicle Cultivators would not be so scarce."
"Every time an Eight-Rank Treasure Pill is refined, it is a grand event for the various races, enough to make many Great Vehicle Cultivators go crazy."
"It is said that the value of one Eight-Rank Treasure Pill is in no way inferior to a Mysterious Heaven Treasure."
Tao Qili sighed with emotion.
She had also read some secret manuals from the Flying Crane Clan; these secret manuals were all brought back by Zhou Sui.
Ever since being devoured by the Book Gu, these secret manuals naturally became virtual books within the Book Gu's body.
Many Dao companions also frequently went to read the relevant books and learned quite a few hidden pieces of information about the Spirit World.
At the same time, they also learned some information regarding Great Vehicle Cultivators.
"Can Integration Stage cultivators and Refining Void cultivators eat this kind of Eight-Rank Treasure Pill?"
Shi Yuxi asked curiously.
She felt that if such a precious pill were eaten by a low-tier cultivator, wouldn't they be able to ascend to heaven in broad daylight and have their cultivation progress by leaps and bounds?! Because the medicinal power inside was too terrifying.
"Of course they cannot eat it."
"If one's cultivation is not strong enough and one's physique is not sufficiently formidable, taking an Eight-Rank Treasure Pill is purely seeking one's own death."
"Merely refining a portion of the medicinal power within is enough to cause a low-tier cultivator to explode and die."
"The medicinal power of high-tier pills is not so easy to digest."
Zhou Sui shook his head.
Thinking that one could take a high-tier treasure pill and have one's cultivation progress rapidly, ascending to heaven in broad daylight, is almost an impossible thing.
If one's cultivation is insufficient and one forces oneself to take a high-tier treasure pill, that is purely courting death.
Of course, the world is vast and full of wonders.
It does not exclude some special high-tier treasure pills that can be taken by low-tier cultivators, thereby allowing the low-tier cultivator's cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds.
However, this is also extremely rare.
"Fellow Daoist Fengxi, this Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill is handed over to you."
"I hope you can ascend to the Great Vehicle Realm as soon as possible."
At this moment, Zhou Sui handed the jade bottle containing the Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill to Fengxi Daoren.
"No, this Eight-Rank Treasure Pill is truly too precious; even if I sold myself, I could not afford it."
"You should keep such a precious pill for your own use."
Fengxi Daoren hurriedly declined, because such an Eight-Rank Treasure Pill was truly too precious.
I am afraid that even if I exhausted all my family wealth, I might not be able to afford it.
Although I have indeed obtained many treasures over these years, none of them can be mentioned in the same breath as the Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill.
After all, this is a pill that can help an Integration Great Power ascend to the Great Vehicle; one can imagine its degree of preciousness.
It is simply not something an ordinary cultivator can imagine.
"Fellow Daoist Fengxi, there is no need to be polite."
"For other cultivators, perhaps the Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill is very precious."
"But for me, it is actually not worth mentioning."
"Since I can refine one, then naturally I can refine a second one, and a third one."
"Within a short period of time, I am unable to become a Great Vehicle Cultivator."
"However, a great tribulation is approaching, and our Human Race needs a Great Vehicle Cultivator to back us up; Fellow Daoist Feng Xi should take on this responsibility without hesitation."
"After all, this is not just for Fellow Daoist Feng Xi herself, but also for the Human Race."
Zhou Sui looked at Fengxi Daoren very sincerely.
"This."
Hearing these words, Fengxi Daoren was speechless, not knowing what to say.
If it were for her own sake, she would still have a reason to refuse.
But for the sake of the Human Race, she had no reason to refuse this matter.
Yet, this was too absurd.
Such a precious Eight-Rank Treasure Pill—which Integration Great Power wouldn't scramble for it? This man, however, actually took the initiative to give it to her.
Should one call this man foolish, or selfless?
Deep in her heart, ripples could not help but emerge.
"That's right, Fengxi Sister, you should just accept this Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill."
"You know my husband's abilities; his skill in planting Spirit Medicine is at the Grandmaster level."
"Wanting to refine the next Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill is simply a matter of minutes."
"Fengxi Sister has helped us so much, please do not decline this time."
Bai Sujie immediately spoke up, persuading Fengxi Daoren.
If not for the power of Fengxi Daoren in the past, the humans of Fengxi City would likely have died in the Leiming Mountain Range long ago.
How could they have lived so safely in the Shattered Star Sea?
It could be said that Fengxi Daoren was simply the guardian deity of Fengxi City.
Since Fengxi Daoren protected her in the past, it was now her turn to help Fengxi Daoren.
This was the cycle of cause and effect.
"That's right, stop being so indecisive."
"Do we really need to say so much given our friendship?"
"You don't think that without this Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill, we would be unable to step into the Great Vehicle Realm, do you?"
"Don't underestimate people too much."
Tao Qili feigned an angry look.
"Alright, I understand; I will accept this Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill."
Hearing this, Fengxi Daoren smiled beautifully; she had indeed been too cautious. These people were all her good sisters, and after years of life-and-death experiences, was there any need for so many polite formalities?
If she truly wanted to repay the kindness, it would not be too late to do so after she became a Great Vehicle Cultivator.
She was truly being too narrow-minded.
Thinking of this, she immediately let go of her inner burden, her beautiful eyes flickering with a strange light as she looked at Zhou Sui.
Several days later.
The commotion caused by the Eight-Rank Pill Tribulation on Fengxi Island gradually subsided.
After all, there had been too many similar events, and the Human Cultivators in the Qianmiao Secret Realm had become numb to such things.
Although they felt it was incredible that Zhou Sui had advanced to an Eight-Rank Alchemist, they also felt it was only natural.
As the master of the Qianmiao Secret Realm and one of the most outstanding geniuses in the history of the Human Race, it was perfectly normal for him to accomplish such a thing.
Of course, to celebrate becoming an Eight-Rank Alchemist and successfully refining the Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill, Zhou Sui spent several days in pleasure with his Dao Companions like Bai Sujie, until they were exhausted.
"You all, you really must show some restraint in such matters."
"As Cultivators, you should focus your energy on cultivation; how can you indulge in momentary pleasure?"
At this moment, seeing her sisters, Fengxi Daoren spoke with annoyance.
Generally speaking, even as Dao Companions, high-level Cultivators would spend most of their time on cultivation.
How could they be like these people, indulging in pleasure all day long?
It was simply too absurd.
That man was like a foolish monarch, playing with the beauties of his harem all day.
"Fengxi Sister, what we are doing is also a form of cultivation."
"And the speed of cultivation is faster than meditating alone; haven't you seen our cultivation progress rapidly?"
"It is not at all inferior to those peerless geniuses."
Bai Sujie blinked her beautiful eyes, her pretty face flushed and full of vitality, showing no signs of fatigue at all.
"This."
Hearing this, Fengxi Daoren was speechless, not knowing what to say.
Because the cultivation speed of her sisters was indeed very fast, even faster than her own in the past.
At this rate of cultivation, she feared that in less than a hundred years, her sisters would be able to advance to Integration.
If they were in the Human Imperial City of the past, they would likely already be considered local lords.
One could only say that perhaps her sisters and that man were proficient in a unique Dual Cultivation technique that could assist both parties in growing, which was why such an effect appeared.
"Fengxi Sister, why don't you marry my husband too?"
"You are single anyway."
"If you marry my husband, then we will truly be as close as sisters."
Hua Siqing giggled, offering her suggestion.
"How could such a thing be possible? It's too absurd; I am many years older than him."
"Isn't this just an old cow eating tender grass?"
Fengxi Daoren's pretty face flushed red, and she waved her hands repeatedly.
"What does it matter if one is older? We are all cultivators; age is simply not an issue."
"If one attains the Dao and becomes an immortal in the future, then Longevity is endless; what do a mere few thousand years count for?"
"Besides, we are also older than our husband, aren't we?"
Tao Qili immediately realized that Fengxi Daoren seemed a bit different than before, no longer so resistant to becoming their husband's Dao Companion; perhaps this matter could succeed.
To tell the truth, if Fengxi Daoren truly became their husband's Dao Companion, then their family would be the true masters of the Qianmiao Secret Realm, and there would no longer be any possibility of division.
Therefore, no matter what, they had to marry Fengxi Daoren into the family; this would be of immense benefit to everyone.
"I am willing, but I just don't know what Daoist Zhou thinks?"
Fengxi Daoren also immediately made a decision.
She felt that the kindness she had received was truly too great, and she could not repay Zhou Sui without offering herself.
Now, the only thing she had that was of any use was the Pure Yin Qi within her.
If they were to engage in Dual Cultivation, perhaps it could help Zhou Sui take a step further; at the very least, it could save a thousand years of bitter cultivation.
Especially in the current environment, the faster the cultivation speed, the better.
Only in this way would it be possible to resist the great catastrophe of the future.
To be honest, the Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill is a supreme opportunity for an Integration Stage cultivator to ascend to the Great Vehicle realm.
If many female Integration Stage cultivators in the Spirit World knew that they could exchange their bodies for such an opportunity, they would likely swarm over.
For a Cultivator, the body is merely a skin bag; it counts for nothing at all.
She herself had only obtained such an opportunity because she was lucky.
"Don't worry, we just need to force the issue, and our husband will certainly agree."
Bai Sujie said straightforwardly, offering her suggestion.
"Force the issue?"
Hearing this, Fengxi Daoren was completely stunned; she had not expected her sisters to give such a suggestion.
This was simply too exaggerated.
As a woman, this was truly too lacking in modesty.
"What does this count for? Several of our sisters also 'advanced' this way back then."
Bai Sujie giggled.
What?!
Fengxi Daoren's mouth twitched, and she looked at Shi Yuxi, Hua Siqing, and Tao Qili, the three women, feeling completely speechless.
Although she had heard similar rumors before, she did not know the specific details.
Now, hearing Bai Sujie describe it this way, she realized just how bold these three women were.
They were simply like wolves and tigers.
"Ahem, Fengxi Sister, what does this even count for?"
"Besides, we are pursuing our own lifelong happiness, so using a few methods is only right."
Hua Siqing was very thick-skinned; she felt that what she had done in the past was very correct.
If it weren't for that, she wouldn't have gained such great benefits, and her cultivation would not have advanced by leaps and bounds.
She might even soon become an Integration Great Power.
"Exactly, exactly. If you see something you like, you must strive to obtain it. Isn't this what Fengxi Sister taught us?" Shi Yuxi said righteously.
"This."
Fengxi Daoren was speechless; was that what she had meant when she said those things back then?
Although the logic held, she hadn't meant for her sisters to go out and snatch a man like that.
However, perhaps her sisters were the ones who were right.
If they hadn't been so bold in the past, they wouldn't have obtained such an excellent man and benefited so much.
Judging from the results, they were quite happy.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be working so diligently here every day, never slacking off.
Perhaps she also needed to humbly ask her sisters for advice.
After all, she was indeed not skilled at such matters; previously, she had just been a cultivation fanatic.
She was often obsessed with cultivation; where would she have experienced such affairs between men and women?
"Alright, perhaps you are the ones who are correct."
"Then what should I do now?"
Fengxi Daoren asked sincerely; she wanted to know how she should proceed with her next step.
"Leave this matter to us; we guarantee we can make you satisfied and have you successfully marry into our Zhou Family."
Tao Qili giggled.
She was very happy inside; she had finally managed to lure her sister into the Zhou Family.
One must know that Fengxi Daoren was a cultivation genius; after taking the Zhou Tian Star Soul Pill, she would inevitably become a Great Vehicle Cultivator.
In the future, the Zhou Family would have a Great Vehicle Loose Immortal backing them.
No matter who it was for, Fengxi Daoren marrying into the Zhou Family was a great thing.
It was equivalent to preemptively smoothing over potential conflicts.
After all, one mountain cannot hold two tigers, unless one is male and one is female.
……
Late at night, City Lord Mansion, inside a Cave Abode.
Zhou Sui sat cross-legged on the ground, performing his daily routine cultivation, circulating the Gu God Scripture; he felt the Combined Body Dharma Power within his body increasing bit by bit.
However, it was clear that without the assistance of a Pill, his progress was very slow.
It was simply like a tortoise crawling.
But he had grown accustomed to such things.
Even if progress was slow, he persisted every day.
After all, cultivation meant progress, and this was also a very pleasant thing.
"Not bad, if it continues like this, I should be able to break through to the Combined Body Mid-Stage very soon."
Zhou Sui felt the surging Combined Body Dharma Power within his body and was immediately very satisfied.
Clearly, thanks to the assistance of the Seven-Tier Treasure Pill, his cultivation progress was rapid.
It was even more efficient and faster than when he was in the Refining Void Realm.
One could only say that Pills were truly too important; they were simply cultivation accelerators, better than any Spirit Root aptitude.
"But the Boundary Gate of the Prison Demon World is likely about to fully form."
"At that time, the Prison Demon World will likely launch a full-scale invasion."
"Fortunately, the Qianmiao Secret Realm has already formed, so it can be considered to have a certain degree of resistance."
Through the power of the Luck Gu, Zhou Sui immediately sensed that a massive amount of Tribulation Qi was surging from his body.
Such Tribulation Qi was not only shrouding him, but also shrouding every Human Cultivator in the Qianmiao Secret Realm.
It was even shrouding all Cultivators in the entire Spirit World.
Without a doubt, this was a great tribulation aimed at the entire Spirit World.
He sensed that the Boundary Gate would form very soon, perhaps within a few days, or perhaps within a few years.
In short, any timeframe was possible, and the speed was very fast.
However, as someone staying in the Qianmiao Secret Realm, there was still a possibility of avoiding such a great tribulation.
Even if those Prison Demon World Cultivators came to the Qianmiao Secret Realm, it would be almost impossible for them to find the entrance and exit of the Qianmiao Secret Realm.
Of course, there was nothing one hundred percent certain in this world; perhaps the enemy would truly find a way to invade the Qianmiao Secret Realm. But he had already done his best and left the rest to fate, having made the best preparations he could.
If he still encountered danger at this time, then there was nothing he could do.
One could only say that fate was like this.
Moreover, it was useless to worry about such things now; one could only meet force with force and water with earth.
Half an hour later.
Zhou Sui also ended this session of cultivation and walked out of the Cave Abode, and then he immediately saw a graceful, beautiful figure appear at the entrance of the Cave Abode; it was Fengxi Daoren.
At this very moment, Fengxi Daoren was wearing a red spaghetti-strap ice silk nightgown, outlining perfect and proud curves, and paired with that stunningly beautiful face, she was simply a peerless beauty, incredibly sexy, and mouth-watering.
"Daoist Zhou, why are you here?"
Zhou Sui blinked his eyes, looking at Fengxi Daoren.
"Daoist Zhou, what do you think of me?"
Fengxi Daoren's beautiful eyes flashed with an unusual light, her pretty face slightly flushed, just like a ripe apple; she did not answer Zhou Sui's question, but instead asked one in return.
"This, Daoist Feng Xi is naturally excellent."
Zhou Sui said as a matter of course.
"How excellent is 'excellent'?"
"Does it reach the level of your Dao Companion? If it were you, would you like a woman like me?"
Fengxi Daoren approached Zhou Sui, forcing him directly into a corner, giving him no chance to escape at all.
"This."
Zhou Sui was stunned for a moment; he sensed that for some reason, Fengxi Daoren's favorability toward him had actually reached one hundred percent, but he clearly hadn't done anything, so why had the favorability risen so much?
And she was suddenly so overbearing.
He felt as if he were a delicate wife being cornered by an overbearing CEO.
There was simply no way to avoid it, no way to escape.
"Of course, Daoist Feng Xi is extremely beautiful, possessing a face that puts flowers to shame and a temperament that could topple cities; who wouldn't like a woman like you, Daoist?"
Zhou Sui said very honestly.
"Since that is the case, then would you like to take me as your wife?"
Fengxi Daoren said straightforwardly, not intending to beat around the bush at all.
"Ah?"
"Fengxi Daoren is naturally excellent, but I already have Dao Companions, four of them."
Zhou Sui was a bit dumbfounded for a moment; he hadn't expected Fengxi Daoren to throw such a direct pitch.
"What does it matter if you have four Dao Companions? Wouldn't it be fine to add me as one more?"
"Or is it that you don't like me?"
Fengxi Daoren breathed like an orchid, seeming to become even more charming.
At the same time, she also released bursts of mysterious aura from her body, containing profound power, which instantly enveloped both herself and Zhou Sui, as if they were merging into one.
"Of course that is not the case."
"Wait, what have you done to me?"
Zhou Sui felt his body being pulled by some force, and he felt incomparably hot inside, as if his body temperature were constantly rising, and it was impossible to stop.
It seemed that the Dragon Elephant Cells within his body were boiling at this moment, rolling like molten lava.
This is very unusual.
Normally, his Dragon Elephant Bloodline would not experience such a situation; Fengxi Daoren must have done something to him.
"I didn't do much."
"Just now, I released the True Phoenix Qi from my body."
"This is the courtship aura belonging to the Phoenix Bloodline, which is more potent than any aphrodisiac in the world."
"As long as one smells it, they will uncontrollably practice the Yin-Yang Dao."
"I feel that words cannot express affection; only actions can prove everything."
Fengxi Daoren smiled slightly.
She felt herself becoming increasingly excited now.
The Heart Demon that had appeared previously in the Phoenix Immortal Mansion had not actually disappeared; if she wanted to successfully overcome the Great Vehicle Heart Demon Tribulation, she had to resolve this flaw before the tribulation, otherwise, she would definitely fail.
To be honest, she had been avoiding it, evading her own feelings, and simply dared not face herself.
Therefore, the Heart Demon had become increasingly terrifying.
Only by facing her Heart Demon could she overcome the Heart Demon.
That was why she finally made up her mind to face her own feelings directly.
She had taken a fancy to this man and wanted to possess him, even if this man had a Dao Companion, it did not matter.
Her feelings were now so intense, like a moth flying into a flame.
It was also like a phoenix being reborn from the fire.
Even if it meant death, she would not regret it.
"This, this."
Zhou Sui was stunned; what was going on with these Dao Companions of his? Each one of them took an unconventional path.
If they weren't trying to get him drunk, they were trying to drug him.
He felt as if he had become a pampered wife, being toyed with by these Dao Companions as they pleased.
Boom!
Before he could think too much, he was dragged back into the Cave Abode by Fengxi Daoren.
At the same time, the door of the Cave Abode closed quickly.
Bursts of amorous aura were released from within.
