Chapter 443: Chapter 443 Sister Lin Transcends Mortality

Feng Jun quietly decided that if there were still no progress by the fourth day, he would have to consider taking Lin Daiyu into the mountains and giving her a push with the Spirit Gathering Array.

It seemed that Mi Yunshan was also aware of his intentions; during the day of the fourth day, she actually consumed another Body Tempering Pill.

That night, she advanced to an intermediate-level martial artist.

She silently shed tears.

“Advancing to intermediate level in four days, master, I’m happy…”

“Happy, huh? That’s good,” Feng Jun lit a cigarette to smoke, and after finishing it, he then took out a stack of papers, “After your realm has stabilized, take a look at this.”

Mi Yunshan took the cigarette butt from him, twisted it out in the ashtray, and then took the stack of papers.

Then, she fell silent again; Feng Jun turned his head curiously and saw that she was shedding tears once more.

She really is a Lin Daiyu made of water, Feng Jun smiled silently to himself, “This is Immortal Cultivation Techniques.”

Mi Yunshan’s tears became even more tumultuous; she cried for at least ten minutes before quietly replying, “I know…”

Since she was young, she had been raised as a cultivation seedling, so she had a fair understanding of the characteristics of Immortal Cultivation Techniques.

In the subsequent period, she also diligently practiced her cultivation. @@novelbin@@

Yu Changzhu also noticed her changes.

Yu Changqing couldn’t afford to act petulantly with the Divine Doctor, but his face was still filled with displeasure, and his manner was sullen when he saw him.

Two days later, Yu Changqing activated the Spirit Gathering Array again; however, this time, Mi Yunshan did not go to leech spiritual energy because Feng Jun had said, “If you’re going to change from martial cultivation to the cultivation path, don’t go over there. It’ll prevent others from noticing anything unusual.”

Could not leeching spiritual energy really prevent her from being discovered? That was impossible; there were perceptive people everywhere, and Mi Yunshan couldn’t avoid being observed just by walking around in the courtyard.

However, by not leeching spiritual energy, she could ultimately avoid drawing attention from more people.

That evening, Feng Jun took her out, saying he wanted to observe the stars at night and forbade anyone from following.

He didn’t activate the Spirit Gathering Array that night.

He didn’t activate the Spirit Gathering Array that day to prevent arising suspicion.

The next night, he took out a pair of infrared night-vision goggles to search around before confidently activating the grand array. Nature’s spiritual energy surged tumultuously, quickly filling the space. If anyone was nearby, they could easily sense it.

Thinking of the touching speed of spiritual energy gathering in the Earth Realm, Feng Jun felt somewhat speechless; indeed, without comparison, there is no harm.

Even though there are a million things wrong with the Earth Realm, it has one advantage that this plane lacks—safety.

Although it was deep into the night in the mountains, Feng Jun still had to pay some attention to guard against anyone sneaking up.

Mi Yunshan clearly felt the Spirit Gathering Array but didn’t say a word.

Unfortunately, there was… no real gain.

However, this time, Feng Jun’s mindset was a lot more serene.

Transcending mortality is difficult, a universally acknowledged truth. He didn’t even set a time limit for her anymore; whenever she transcended, that would be the time.

For several consecutive days afterward, he took her to spend the nights in the mountains. Others had their suspicions but did not voice them out.

But those two young masters of the Yu family both seemed down and unhappy.

On the fifth night, Feng Jun finally noticed some subtle changes and gently infused a bit of spiritual energy into her.

Mere spiritual energy was not enough until he added spiritual liquid, and Sister Lin finally transformed from a chrysalis into a butterfly.

It took her almost half an hour to convert her inner Qi into spiritual energy.

Afterward, to his surprise, he discovered that his own cultivation level… had also improved slightly.

He was already at the peak of the early-stage Qi Refinement and had now taken a step forward, faintly sensing the threshold of the fourth level.

One must not underestimate such a slight progression; using Earth Realm’s Heaven-Swallowing Formation for cultivation would have required at least two days.

Most importantly, he was in the Stabilization Phase, where forcefully advancing one’s Cultivation Level was not advisable, not even the slightest bit.

This Cultivation Technique could disregard the constraints of the Devouring Primordial Heaven, smoothly helping him advance a bit. The process was completely effortless, as natural as water flowing into a channel. Just on this count alone, it was extremely precious.

This was an unexpected pleasant surprise.

While he was reflecting on the changes in his Cultivation Level, Mi Yunshan was silently performing her cultivation technique with a flow of tears.

Half an hour later, when she had finished her cultivation, she said, “Thank you, senior. Even if I were to be ground into dust, I could not repay your kindness.”

Only then did Feng Jun snap out of his contemplation, chuckling lightly, “If you were ground into dust, then you certainly couldn’t repay me… You must stay alive to repay me better.”

There had always been a subtle barrier between him and the natives of this plane; after all, he had entered this world by tapping on a mobile phone screen, which made everything seem less real to him.

He had no emotional foundation with Mi Yunshan; it was merely an exchange of interests with the Mi Family—there were even plans to use her to test a Cultivation Technique.

But after cultivating and living here for so many days, he was gradually beginning to accept this girl, so he could make light jokes now and then.

Mi Yunshan, unused to such banter, buried her face in his neck, her cheeks burning hot.

It took a long while for Mi Yunshan to respond softly, brushing off the heaviness, “What I am most suited for is to be your eyes and ears.”

That was true; the Cultivation Technique taught to those with the Shadow Physique was more suitable for assassins or scouts, and of course, it was also fitting for hidden protectors.

“Mm,” Feng Jun answered in a deep voice, now that things had come to this, there was no need to conceal, “What I am primarily cultivating is not this Technique; I just wanted to help you.”

His words… were accurate, although it seemed like he was taking advantage while acting coy, the reality was indeed so.

Mi Yunshan fell silent, and after a long while, she spoke, “I swear by my inner demons, I will not reveal this secret.”

Her action was to make Feng Jun trust her. The Royal Family’s Cultivation Techniques were strictly forbidden to be shared, or else the person would face the Royal Family’s wrath.

But Feng Jun did not care much; he was not afraid of the Royal Family’s investigation. What really mattered was if Lin Daiyu dared to share this Technique with her family, it could lead to the Mi Family’s doom.

So he smiled, “Being cautious and prudent is proper. You’d best not mention the Spirit Gathering Array either.”

The next day, Mi Yunshan stayed hidden in her room, not showing her face at all.

On the third day, Yu Changqing once again activated the Spirit Gathering Array, and Mi Yunshan came to leech Spiritual Energy.

Yu Changqing casually assessed her Cultivation Level, and his eyes widened in shock—had she advanced a stage in ‘Transcending Mortality’?

Chen Junsheng, who was also at the ‘Transcending Mortality’ stage, stared at her dumbfoundedly: It couldn’t be… that fast, could it?

Yu Changqing’s activation of the Spirit Gathering Array this time was to verify some conjectures in cultivation, which could have been completed in a little over a day. However, upon seeing Mi Yunshan, she changed her mind and kept it going for more than two days.

Sister Lin, despite appearing fragile, had endured throughout, but she did not advance to the next stage again.

To prevent others from getting suspicious, when Mi Yunshan was leeching the Spiritual Energy, Feng Jun did not return to the small courtyard at night but spent it in Mount Zhige instead.

It all turned out well in the end. After Mi Yunshan finished her cultivation, she ate something casually and then went out to look for Feng Jun.

As a woman, whether at the Intermediate Level of a Martial Artist or at the ‘Transcending Mortality’ stage, she was not particularly strong. She ventured out alone, though she did carry a short sword at her waist, she walked cautiously, constantly vigilant.

Upon reaching an area with scant foot traffic, she noticed a farm vehicle trailing her from a distance. After continuing a bit further and noting the vehicle was still following her, she couldn’t help but turn around and stare coldly at the pursuer.

The farm vehicle halted for a while, then suddenly accelerated with a roar of the engine, charging towards her.

Then, as the vehicle stopped in front of Mi Yunshan, Yu Changzhu leaned out, greeting with a half-smile, “So it’s you… Did you know, a lone woman wandering in the wild is very prone to accidents?”

A fleeting glimpse of murderous intent sparkled in her eyes.
