Chapter 1146: Chapter 1166: Eating Together, Living Together, and Openly Sharing First Impressions_1

"This thing releases a substantial amount every month, enough for so many ancient giant beasts to absorb for a long time. With just the two of us cultivating, there won’t be any problems."

Lin Chen smiled as he looked at Qiao Wei across from him: "Who are we? Why are you being polite and distant with me?"

Qiao Wei pursed her lips, a playful expression flickering on her face: "There are countless Senior Sisters and Junior Brothers in the world, but not many are willing to share opportunities like this."

Lin Chen said with a beaming smile: "That just means our relationship is better, right? When I was weak, Senior Sister never despised me. Now that I have the ability, it’s only natural for us to share our blessings."

Qiao Wei chuckled lightly: "From the beginning, it was you who helped me, in Bai Tao City, holding it down for me; you helped me earn the materials needed to refine the Sword Bone, and even protected me during the Sword Bone refining process, 24 hours a day..."

Lin Chen blinked his eyes: "If it wasn’t for you and Master protecting me, Murong Feng would probably have killed me long ago. Even if he couldn’t kill me, he would have asked his seniors to do it. In the Wildlands, killing a little nobody like me is all too easy."

Pausing for a moment, Lin Chen let out a sly grin: "Senior Sister, we’ve shared food and shelter and have been open with each other, so if we’re still calculating this and that, it’d be too much."

Open with each other?

Qiao Wei’s pretty face flushed red, as she recalled an embarrassing incident between her and Lin Chen.

She had been seen naked!

If it were someone else, that person would probably have been obliterated already. However, Qiao Wei only felt shy at the time, without a trace of anger.

Qiao Wei glared at Lin Chen: "If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll beat you up!"

Lin Chen laughed: "Who asked you to treat me like an outsider? You forced my hand."

Qiao Wei bit her lip, feeling both embarrassed and warm in her heart.

This guy really considered her his closest person.

"Fine, fine. I’ll take advantage of you then, and you’ll get what you deserve for taking a loss," Qiao Wei acquiesced.

Lin Chen smiled faintly: "You’re now in the Late Nascent Soul stage, so you should reach the Divinity Great Perfection as soon as possible. The enemies we’ll face in the future are only getting stronger, and some are even unfairly strong."

Pausing briefly, there was a hint of worry in Lin Chen’s voice: "We might even face immortals. Xuanji Fairy’s enemies aren’t just one, but a whole group of immortals..."

Qiao Wei’s smiled faded, as she spoke seriously: "Since ancient times, ascending to immortality has never been easy. Since you’ve encountered Xuanji Fairy and have tied your destiny to her, no matter what, we have to give it a shot."

Lin Chen nodded: "We need to consider a contingency plan, just in case information about Xuanji Fairy’s presence leaks out and attracts immortals to come to South Mountain for revenge. We need a backup plan."

Qiao Wei frowned: "Yes, I’ll discuss this with Master again to make sure we won’t have any worries."

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "Anyway, there are not many of us, so we can temporarily abandon South Mountain and live in an unknown place. Immortals are people too, so they shouldn’t be able to find us."

Qiao Wei nodded: "This is a solution. We’ll see what Master says."

As they spoke, the metal piece had completely absorbed the Immortal Spirit Qi. Lin Chen took it out of the room, and it began to frantically devour the surrounding dense Heavenly Earthly Spiritual Qi.

Although it made a bit of noise, it was no issue since this was the back of Fei Pu Peak, where Qiao Wei lived.

Once it finished devouring the Qi, Lin Chen threw the metal piece back into the Spatial Ring and returned to the room.

The enclosed room was filled with rich Immortal Spirit Qi, so Lin Chen took out the Water and Fire Mirror and released a wisp of Yin Yang Ghost Fire.

The Yin Yang Ghost Fire had originally been lazy and lifeless, but as soon as it was placed in the Immortal Spirit Qi, its faint flame began to tremble, and Lin Chen felt it start to absorb the Immortal Spirit Qi.

Heh, this Immortal Spirit Qi really works!

The Yin Yang Ghost Fire consumed a considerable amount of Immortal Spirit Qi in one go, and the small flame noticeably increased in size, with the dim white flames brightening up a notch.

With the Yin Yang Ghost Fire back in the Water and Fire Mirror, Lin Chen also sat down cross-legged and began his cultivation.

Immortal Spirit Qi is at least a hundred times more pure than ordinary Spiritual energy, representing a qualitative change. Even a single wisp of Immortal Spirit Qi can cause significant changes once it enters the body, similar to the Spiritual Essence that Lin Chen had previously obtained.

If Spiritual energy is plain vegetables, then Immortal Spirit Qi is a big chunk of juicy, fat meat. Taking a bite of it brings immense satisfaction and pleasure to both body and soul.

Lin Chen and Qiao Wei began their focused cultivation.

Time flew by, and four months had passed in the blink of an eye.

Lin Chen’s strength had increased again, reaching the Late Nascent Soul stage, while Qiao Wei had reached Divinity Great Perfection, where she was now bottlenecked.

The Yin Yang Ghost Fire would come out to devour Immortal Spirit Qi every ten days or so. As it absorbed more and more Immortal Spirit Qi, it regained much of its former strength, increasing its spirituality and wisdom.

Using the Divine Fire Pledge Contract Method, Lin Chen successfully signed a contract with the Yin Yang Ghost Fire, exploiting its innate craving for Immortal Spirit Qi. From then on, he no longer had to worry about it running away or being uncontrollable.

Lin Chen looked at the Yin Yang Ghost Fire hovering around him, full of anticipation.

Although it wasn’t strong enough yet, there was still hope for the future!
