Chapter 6: Master... I am about to break through, help me
"Supreme Realm-Breaking Pill?"
Jiang Xun was puzzled; he had truly never heard of this medicinal pill before.
【Ding, Supreme Mirror-Breaking Pill: Functions to break through from the Integration Stage Late Stage Great Perfection to the Great Vehicle Realm. After consuming the pill, one can avoid the Heavenly Tribulation and reach the Great Vehicle Realm directly.】
"My goodness, this Supreme Realm-Breaking Pill, so it's such a powerful thing."
Jiang Xun was inevitably surprised upon seeing this.
The cultivation realms of a cultivator are divided into: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, Void Refinement, Integration, Great Vehicle, and Tribulation Transcendence.
If one can survive the final Tribulation Transcendence stage, it is said one can ascend to the Immortal World.
And the former Sect Master Ruo Lan went into seclusion in order to break through from the Void Refinement Realm to the Integration Realm.
Although the Supreme Mirror-Breaking Pill is used for the Integration Realm to the Great Vehicle Realm, if consumed at this time, Jiang Xun could presumably recover directly from Golden Core to Nascent Soul, but that would be too much of a waste of a heavenly treasure.
One must know that the time it takes to go from Integration to Great Vehicle is not a matter of a single day or night.
"Thank you, Master!" Gu Qing was overjoyed upon hearing this; she was indeed stuck at the Nascent Soul Mid-Stage Peak at this moment, unable to break through for a long time.
This Barrier-Breaking Pill was truly a timely gift for her!
"Hey!" Seeing that Gu Qing was about to swallow it directly, Jiang Xun hurriedly stopped her.
Breaking through in mid-air now, would that be acceptable?
"Go back, eat it after you go back," Jiang Xun said, grabbing Gu Qing's wrist.
"Hehe, this disciple was too impatient," Gu Qing gave a silly smile and sped up, flying toward the small cabin.
Returning to the front of the cabin, Gu Qing couldn't wait to sit cross-legged at the entrance, swallowed the Barrier-Breaking Pill in one gulp, and began to circulate her cultivation technique.
Jiang Xun smiled helplessly at the sight, sat on a rocking chair, and plunged the Liu Hong Sword into the ground to form a barrier, surrounding the entire cabin, which could be considered guarding Gu Qing.
Five hours passed.
Gu Qing was soaked in sweat, her clothes nearly transparent, beads of sweat the size of beans rolling down her forehead, and she let out bursts of moans.
That delicate, soft sound drilled straight into one's bones, making one tremble all over and have wild fantasies.
"Master, Master... I am about to break through, help me..."
Gu Qing's cherry lips parted slightly as she called out in that seductive voice.
"Alright." Jiang Xun nodded, stood up, and carried Gu Qing into the house.
How to help?
Naturally, by Dual Cultivation!
To fully absorb all the Spirit Energy from the breakthrough and the energy of the Barrier-Breaking Pill!
"I broke through! Master, I broke through!"
After the Dual Cultivation ended, ignoring her trembling legs and her stark-naked body, Gu Qing jumped up excitedly and shouted.
"Fifteen years! I am finally at the Nascent Soul Late Stage!"
Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage are few and far between in this world, all of them being top-tier geniuses within their sects, let alone a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Late Stage.
If Jiang Xun had succeeded in his Tribulation Transcendence that day and entered the Spirit Transformation Stage, he would surely have become world-renowned.
It is not that there are no cultivators above the Spirit Transformation Stage in this world, it is just that those old monsters are mostly the final trump cards of their sects, rarely leaving the mountains, and often in seclusion.
Just like Ruo Lan's situation.
"Congratulations," Jiang Xun nodded with a smile and sat up from the bed: "Go take a bath."
"Master, let's go together, I'll go boil some water!"
Gu Qing nodded without the slightest hesitation, and after putting on her clothes, she ran off to boil water.
After retrieving the Liu Hong Sword, Jiang Xun lay on the bed contentedly, smelling the lingering fragrance of Gu Qing while waiting.
Before long, the two took a mandarin duck bath together; after coming out of the bath, Gu Qing served Jiang Xun by helping him change into new clothes before putting on her own.
"Master, it's getting late, I'm heading back to Qingyu Peak now," Gu Qing said after cleaning up the bathtub and coming before Jiang Xun.
"Alright, go back then." Jiang Xun nodded.
"Master... shall I, bring the disciples over tomorrow?" Gu Qing walked to the door with small steps, then turned back to look at Jiang Xun.
"Alright."
"Thank you, Master!"
Gu Qing was very happy upon hearing this and ran off at full speed.
Having obtained the Barrier-Breaking Pill, she had actually forgotten about the matter of the Top-grade Spirit Stones.
If it were just to supervise the disciples' cultivation, there would naturally be no need to beg Jiang Xun, but the cultivation Gu Qing spoke of was not that simple.
What she meant was Dual Cultivation.
The so-called bringing the disciples to cultivate meant engaging in Dual Cultivation with the disciples while letting the others watch from the sidelines.
The reason Gu Qing did not know how to go about it was because she was unwilling to engage in Dual Cultivation with the Outer Sect Disciples of the Lingerie-Sect—that is, those male cultivators—and even less willing to be watched by others.
The Lingerie-Sect occupies Lingxiao Mountain and has a total of six peaks.
Qingyu Peak is where the sect's main headquarters is located, and the three Great Elders and the Sect Master all live here.
The Great Elders' and the Sect Master's Personal Disciples are also all on Qingyu Peak.
Of the remaining five peaks, the outermost one is called Yangyuan Peak, where all the male Outer Sect Disciples are located.
The so-called Yangyuan Peak, this "Yang" naturally refers to Yang energy, which is to say, men.
These male disciples are all "items" used by the Inner Sect Disciples for harvesting and Dual Cultivation.
However, male disciples who are harvested too much naturally die; in order not to let such news scare the male disciples away, and to prevent a future lack of men joining the Lingerie-Sect, it is always announced that any male disciple who has been drained has entered the Inner Sect.
Once one enters the Inner Sect, all ties with the Outer Sect are completely severed, and from then on, one reaches the pinnacle of life.
Therefore, entering the Inner Sect is what all male disciples yearn for most.
They could never imagine that it is actually the gates of hell.
The remaining four peaks are: Dongshan Peak, West Mountain Peak, Nanshan Peak, and Beishan Peak.
The four mountain peaks surround Qingyu Peak from the four cardinal directions of east, south, west, and north, also serving as a barrier to protect Qingyu Peak.
Gu Qing's subordinates are all Inner Sect Disciples, and also her Personal Disciples, totaling twenty people, whose strength is mostly around the Foundation Establishment Mid-stage, with a few Golden Core early-stage cultivators as well.
"Elder Jiang, Elder Jiang, are you there?" Just as Jiang Xun was preparing to see if there was anything useful among those pills, a man's voice came from outside.
"Who is it?" Jiang Xun asked with a frown.
"This disciple is an Outer Sect Disciple from Yangyuan Peak, Zhang Yuan! I have come specifically to pay a visit to Elder Jiang!"
One could hear that Zhang Yuan outside had already knelt down with a thud.
"What is the matter?" Jiang Xun did not go out, but sat cross-legged on the bed and asked.
"El, Elder Jiang... this disciple has come hoping that Elder Jiang can save my life!" Zhang Yuan shouted from outside with a trembling voice.
"Save you?" Hearing this, Jiang Xun became interested; he stood up, picked up his cane, walked outside, and slowly opened the door.
"Greetings, Elder!"
Seeing this, Zhang Yuan hurriedly kowtowed on the ground, lying prone and not daring to look up.
"Why seek me to save you?"
Jiang Xun nodded and said indifferently.
"El... Elder! I beg you to show mercy and save me! Senior Sister Liu, Senior Sister Liu has summoned me to Dongshan Peak tomorrow evening!" Zhang Yuan hurriedly crawled to Jiang Xun's feet and shouted: "I know, I know! No disciple who has gone up to Dongshan Peak has ever returned! They must be dead!"
"I am no longer the Great Elder now, not even an Elder," Jiang Xun laughed, not expecting that there was actually a smart person among this bunch of piglets.
Not only did he know that those who went up were dead men, but he also knew that he could save him at a time like this.
【Ding, S-Rank Child of Luck detected: Zhang Yuan.】
【Return multiplier: 100 times.】
【Favorability: 0.】
"A Child of Luck can also be detected?"
