The Poisonous Concubine is alive

Liu Yunrou wants to practice Taoism.

Liu Yunrou sat alone under the wisteria in the courtyard, flipping through a thread-bound ancient tome, her eyes drifting off into the distance, as if lost in thought. She had recently discovered a deep curiosity about everything ancient, especially after reading so much modern fiction. Stories of immortality and time travel captivated her. In the quiet of the night, she would imagine herself in ancient times, whether she would embark on the path of cultivation and pursue the legendary immortality.

"Oh, I've read too many novels," Liu Yunrou sighed softly, setting down the scroll in her hand and looking up at the sky. The bright moon seemed to be telling an ancient legend, stirring up an inexplicable urge in her heart. She imagined herself cultivating to become an immortal, ascending to the Moon Palace and dancing with the fairy Chang'e. How carefree and free that would be.

However, there's always an insurmountable chasm between reality and fantasy. Liu Yunrou shook her head, trying to dispel those unrealistic thoughts. She knew she was just an ordinary modern person, and those stories of immortal cultivation were ultimately just fictions created by novelists. But even so, she still retained a lingering yearning for the ancient immortal life, as if it were a deep, inseparable part of her soul.

Although Liu Yunrou lives an ordinary life in modern society, deep down she harbors a dream of cultivating immortality. She has a small study at home, her shelves filled with books on Taoism, immortality, and ancient cultivation techniques. Every night, she immerses herself in this small world, practicing the cultivation methods described in the books.

One day, Liu Yunrou discovered a chapter in an ancient tome titled "Spiritual Qi Refining Body Technique." It was said to have been written by an ancient immortal cultivator, describing how to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and refine oneself. An idea struck her, and she decided to give it a try. Late at night, she followed the book's instructions, sitting cross-legged on the lawn in the courtyard, closing her eyes, forming hand seals, and attempting to sense the spiritual energy around her.

At first, she felt a little foolish. After all, this was modern times, where was there any spiritual energy to speak of? But miraculously, as her breathing gradually steadied, she actually felt a faint stream of air flowing through her fingertips. Although it was very faint, it made her heart beat faster, as if she had touched the threshold of another world.

Liu Yunrou held her breath and focused even more intently on following the instructions in the Spiritual Qi Body Refining Technique, directing the air currents to circulate within her body. She could almost feel the air currents cleansing her meridians. Although the process was slow, she could sense subtle changes taking place within her body.

With Liu Yunrou's unremitting practice, her cultivation level improved significantly. One day, she accidentally discovered a piece of silk with mysterious patterns in a yellowed ancient book. It recorded a cultivation method called "Spiritual Light Condensation Method", which was said to be a secret method used by ancient immortal cultivators to cultivate and practice immortal artifacts.

Driven by curiosity, Liu Yunrou decided to try to cultivate this skill. Following the instructions on the silk, she prepared a piece of pure green jade as the material for cultivating the immortal weapon. Green jade is described in ancient texts as one of the best vehicles for absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

As night fell, Liu Yunrou set up a simple altar in the courtyard and placed the jade on it. She lit three sticks of specially prepared sandalwood incense. The smoke curled up, seemingly opening a passage to a mysterious world in the night sky. Liu Yunrou took a deep breath and began to chant the ancient incantation according to the steps of the "Spiritual Light Condensation Method."

As the incantation resonated, Liu Yunrou felt the air around her begin to ripple. Streams of spiritual energy, imperceptible to the naked eye, were drawn in and gathered on the jade. She formed seals with her hands, constantly shifting her gestures, guiding the spiritual energy into the jade and beginning to refine it.

Time ticked by, beads of sweat forming on Liu Yunrou's forehead, but her gaze grew ever more resolute. Finally, at dawn in the east, the jadeite emitted a gentle glow, a pure and sacred light that seemed to hold endless power.

Liu Yunrou knew this was a sign of the success of her "Spiritual Light Condensation Method," that the jade had begun its transformation into a true immortal artifact. Carefully, she held the jade in her hands, sensing a strange connection between it and her soul. From then on, she not only cultivated her own spiritual energy but also regularly nurtured the jade with it, gradually nurturing it into a true immortal artifact.

During this process, Liu Yunrou's cultivation and the power of the jade complemented each other, and her path to immortality entered a new stage. And the jade became her most precious companion in her cultivation career.

Day after day, Liu Yunrou found her own personal world of cultivation amidst the hustle and bustle of modern life. While she knew this kind of practice seemed somewhat out of place in modern society, she relished it, as if through it, she could establish a mysterious connection with a distant, ancient world. And her life, thanks to her perseverance in cultivating the immortal, became more fulfilling and meaningful.

Liu Yunrou, this name is well-known in the world of cultivation, but she is not just a symbol of heroic sacrifice, but a three-dimensional character with rich emotions and complex personality.

In everyone's eyes, Yun Rou is a heroine who steps forward in crucial moments, her bravery and selflessness commanding admiration. But beneath this aura, she's also an ordinary person with her own dreams and fears. She harbors an endless yearning for cultivation and a thirst to explore the mysteries of the world, but at the same time, she fears loss, loneliness, and her own inability to protect the ones she loves.

Yunrou's character is rife with contradictions and conflicts. She is gentle and considerate, always empathetic to others' suffering, yet capable of unwavering resolve and decisiveness in crucial moments. Deep within her heart lies a deep attachment to her family, especially her stern yet wise great-grandfather. His story inspires her, yet it also often leaves her feeling the weight of her responsibility.

Yun Rou's journey to spiritual enlightenment hasn't been smooth sailing. She's faced setbacks, cried silently in the dead of night, and doubted her choices. But each time, she's managed to rise from the depths of failure, proving her worth with her tenacity and perseverance.

Her friendships and love lives are equally complex. She has a group of like-minded friends whose support is a source of strength in difficult times. Yet, deep down, she harbors a secret crush on a fellow practitioner she dares not express. This feeling is both sweet and painful, as she knows the path of a cultivator is fraught with uncertainty, and she may never have the opportunity to express her feelings.

Ultimately, Yunrou's sacrifice not only redeemed the world of cultivation but also served as a final affirmation of her life choices. Her sacrifice was a testament to her convictions and a gesture of gratitude to all who loved her. Thus, the name Liu Yunrou became more multifaceted and vivid, a real figure who lives forever in the hearts of every cultivator.
