Traveling through the Immortal Cultivation World: I Use Solar Energy to Cultivate
Chapter 24 Wang Zhaojun, Yang Yuhuan
In this solemn and dignified City Lord's Mansion, the atmosphere was a little heavy, and everyone's attention was focused on this special selection.
Wang Bin sat quietly in the main seat. Although there was a hint of disappointment in his heart about Qin Wenjun's choice, it did not overwhelm him.
After all, there are three women behind, just like the chess game is not over yet and there is still a turning point.
His gaze, as if drawn by an invisible thread, slowly fell on the second girl.
The girl was like a blooming flower in spring, fresh and natural, as pure and lovely as the girl next door, exuding a unique affinity.
She had a playful ponytail that swayed gently with her movements, and each movement seemed to be plucking the notes of youth. She looked like an elf walking out of a painting, exuding youthful vitality and making people love her.
The girl took a small step forward. Her steps were light and firm, with the boldness of a woman of the world.
After she stood still, she saluted Wang Bin with a fist clasp. Her movements were neat and crisp, and she introduced herself crisply:
“My name is Wang Zhaojun. I have been wandering the martial arts world since I was young. I heard from Master Huang that I have five spiritual roots.
I have been practicing martial arts for a long time, and I have been training in the coldest days of winter and the hottest days of summer. The hardships I have experienced are beyond the imagination of outsiders.
Now, he has reached the first level of the Xiantian Realm. I heard that this is probably equivalent to the first level of the Qi Refining Stage among you immortal cultivators.
I am twenty-two years old this year. Although time has passed, I have remained a virgin and a perfect woman.
My lifelong goal is to cultivate to the Grandmaster level like an eagle soaring in the sky.
I have searched far and wide in the martial arts world and have heard that an immortal may have a way to help me achieve this wish. I have come here today in the hope that the immortal may grant me this wish."
After hearing this, Wang Bin frowned slightly and felt a little surprised.
The three words "Wang Zhaojun" were like a stone thrown into the lake of his heart, causing ripples. He felt that the name was familiar, as if he had seen it in ancient legends or dusty books, but he could not remember where he had heard it.
His thoughts were like a horse that had broken free from its reins, and he pondered secretly that practicing martial arts to the Grandmaster level might seem awe-inspiring, but in fact, in the eyes of immortal cultivators, it was only at the Foundation Establishment level.
However, no matter how hard a martial artist tries, he cannot escape the shackles of life, as if he is bound by invisible ropes.
No matter how powerful a Grandmaster is, he can only dominate the world of mortals. But once he faces a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he is as small as an ant.
Moreover, after practicing martial arts to the master level, the road ahead is like being blocked by an insurmountable chasm. There is no way to move forward and one can only wander in the same place.
After a brief thought, Wang Bin slowly said:
"Your request still has hope of being fulfilled. Since you possess spiritual roots, even if you only have five spiritual roots, which is a somewhat mediocre qualification in the world of immortal cultivation, you still have the stepping stone to embark on the path of immortal cultivation.
As long as you practice a cultivation method that suits you, you can absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth from then on.
Moreover, in my City Lord's Mansion, the spiritual energy is as dense as substance, like a misty fairyland fog.
Practicing here can greatly help you speed up your practice, and it is not impossible to reach the realm of martial arts master.
But you shouldn’t underestimate the difficulties involved.”
He paused, looked at Wang Zhaojun with deep eyes, and continued:
"For us cultivators, the martial arts master is equivalent to the foundation-building stage. This is a watershed, and the difficulty of cultivation is extremely high.
Think about it, in your vast mortal world, the number of warriors who can cultivate to the Grandmaster level is as rare as shooting stars in the night sky, there are only a few.
All of these warriors who can reach the level of Grandmaster are gifted and have spiritual roots.
I have five basic skills here: gold, wood, water, fire and earth. These skills are like five keys to open the door to cultivating immortals, and all of them can be cultivated to the foundation-building stage.
Later I can give you these skills for free. This will be your chance to change your destiny.
Now, I will also give you two choices. The conditions are the same as Qin Wenjun's. Please choose carefully."
When Wang Zhaojun heard this, a glimmer of surprise suddenly flashed in her eyes.
She originally thought that to cultivate to the Grandmaster level, one would need some peerless and rare martial arts secret manuals, just like those treasured manuals in the martial arts world that were fought over to the point of bloodshed.
Unexpectedly, she could use the cultivation techniques of immortal cultivators to assist in her martial arts training. For her, this was like suddenly finding the direction to move forward in the fog.
But when you think about it carefully, it makes sense.
After all, the martial arts world is vast but limited. She has been wandering around for many years, and has only heard that there is a master martial artist still alive, standing like a solitary peak.
She hesitated for a moment, and the pride of a chivalrous woman in her heart burned like a flame.
How can I, a chivalrous woman in the martial arts world, who is free and unrestrained, marry easily?
She firmly believed that with her talent, like the bamboo shoots breaking through the ground, she would be able to grow rapidly on the path of cultivating immortals and soon reach the level of a martial arts master.
So, she chose the first option without hesitation - to be a maid in the City Lord's Mansion.
Wang Bin was speechless when he saw this, and sighed inwardly: "My neighbor's girl, I'm not destined to be with her anymore."
There was a subtle hint of disappointment in his eyes, like a child who had lost his favorite toy.
He shook his head in disappointment and said, "You still don't know the cruelty of the world of immortal cultivation. It is a world full of blood and fighting, opportunities and challenges, as dangerous as a dark forest.
Hey! Since you have chosen to be a maid, I respect your decision.
But if you change your mind, you can only do so before you turn thirty. Now, stand aside."
Wang Zhaojun playfully stuck out her tongue at Wang Bin, looking like a child who had succeeded in a little prank, and then she walked briskly to Qin Wenjun and stood beside her.
It was the third woman's turn. Before Wang Bin could even speak, the woman stepped forward like a gust of wind. She stood tall and straight, like a plum blossom blooming proudly in the snow, with an air of perseverance.
Her voice was as powerful as the beating of a war drum: "I am Yang Yuhuan, only twenty years old, in the prime of my youth, and a virgin.
Before today, I never thought that I would have any connection with cultivating immortals. It was not until today that I knew that I had five spiritual roots.
I am the daughter of General Yang of Qi. My father has been loyal and brave all his life. He has guarded the border for Qi and made great military achievements.
However, fate has been so unfair to my Yang family.
When my father led his army to fight against the State of Chu, it should have been a fair battle, but the opposing general was so despicable and shameless, with no martial ethics. He was a cultivator, and he used magic to attack my father in secret.
My poor father, he fought countless battles in his life, but met with such a cruel fate.
Unfortunately, I was only at the first level of the Innate Realm at that time, and my strength was low. Facing the powerful force of the immortal cultivators, I was powerless.
What is even more tragic is that the King of Qi turned a blind eye to what happened to my Yang family and was unwilling to help my Yang family get revenge.
Today, my Yang family has fallen into decline. The former glory is like a passing cloud, and now only endless desolation remains.
Everyone in my Yang family, young and old, is struggling in misery.
I want nothing more than to avenge my father and make that despicable man receive the punishment he deserves, and at the same time, I want to change the tragic fate of my family."
When Wang Bin heard the three words "Yang Yuhuan", his heart moved slightly, and he felt that the name was as familiar as an old friend.
After thinking for a moment, he said solemnly: “Your two choices are the same as theirs.
If you choose to be a maid, I will give you a cultivation method. Although this method is not a rare treasure, it is enough to allow you to embark on the path of cultivation. Your treatment will be the same as theirs, and I will not ask about other matters.
If you choose to be my Taoist partner, the situation of your Yang family will change immediately. As for helping you with your revenge..."
Wang Bin paused, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and continued:
“The person who killed your father was a cultivator after all, so I won’t act rashly.
I will first send someone to investigate his background, including his sect, background, strength, etc., and then decide based on the circumstances.
Of course, if you can give birth to children for me, as long as the other party's background is not at the foundation-building stage, I can help you take revenge and make the murderer pay with blood.
Also, I have to remind you not to take yourselves too seriously.
Although you are quite pretty, in the vast universe of the world of immortal cultivation, with your five spiritual roots, you are like a grain of sand on the beach, ordinary and unremarkable.
Even if I sell you, you are not worth fifty low-grade spirit stones. This is the cruel reality.
If you don’t believe it, wait until you become familiar with the world of immortal cultivation and ask any passerby and you will find out.
Your status can be seen from the fact that the various sects do not accept even those with five spiritual roots as outer disciples when recruiting menial servants.
As for your proud family background and status among mortals... humph, in the eyes of us immortal cultivators, they are nothing but passing clouds.
Even the emperor of your country would have to kneel down and kowtow when he sees me, just like an ant facing a dragon.
I also have some understanding that any cultivator who reaches the foundation-building stage will no longer remain among mortals.
Because after entering the foundation-building stage, the first-level spiritual veins in mortal countries are like dried-up streams, which are simply unable to meet the needs of their cultivation. Staying there is tantamount to waiting for death.
Therefore, you'd better make a wise choice. You should know that there are many people in your Yang family who are suffering and cannot wait."
Yang Yuhuan's expression was like the ever-changing sky, sometimes angry, sometimes sad, sometimes hesitant, constantly changing.
Especially when he heard Wang Bin's domineering words, "The emperor of your country would kneel before me when he saw me," his heart was shocked like a storm.
She thought that if she was just a maid and wanted to cultivate to the level where she could take revenge, the road would be long and difficult. She didn't know how long it would take, and perhaps she would never be able to achieve it in her entire life.
Besides, the family is in a precarious situation now. It is like a broken ship drifting in a storm and may sink at any time. There is no time for her to practice slowly.
Furthermore, she was already twenty years old, which was the age for mortals to get married. But the man in front of her was an immortal, whose status and position were far beyond that of ordinary people.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that being able to become his Taoist partner is still beyond my reach.
After figuring this out, a hint of shyness appeared on her face, and that shyness was like the sunset in the sky, dyeing her cheeks red.
She lowered her head and whispered, "I choose the second one and become your Taoist partner."
"Haha, yes, this is a wise choice."
Wang Bin was overjoyed, like a treasure hunter who had found a rare treasure.
Finally, there was a sensible woman, and his mood was as bright as sunshine through the clouds.
He glanced at Qin Wenjun and Wang Zhaojun with pride, and snorted in his heart: "Hmph, you little brats, you will regret it sooner or later, and then you can come and beg me obediently."
Thinking of this, he instructed Huang Youcai: "Youcai, send someone to investigate the cause of death of Yang Yuhuan's father. If the other party has a weak background and is not powerful, send someone to solve the problem.
You must investigate thoroughly, without any negligence. At the same time, inform the Emperor of Qi that Yang Yuhuan has become my Taoist partner.
I am the mayor of Baiyun City of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance, and I am in the middle stage of foundation building.
I believe that after hearing this news, the Emperor of Qi will try to please me by improving the situation of the Yang family. He wouldn't be so foolish as to offend a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building."
"Yes, Lord City Lord, just leave this little matter to me."
Huang Youcai immediately promised to complete the task, and was also shocked that the city lord had already reached the middle stage of foundation building. It was like discovering a hidden treasure.
But on second thought, the stronger the city lord is, the better it will be for him, and he will also benefit from it.
Wang Bin smiled and waved to Yang Yuhuan, his gesture full of kindness and doting.
He gestured for Yang Yuhuan to stand on his left, and that position was like a special symbol of honor.
Yang Yuhuan walked up the stairs carefully, with a hint of nervousness and anticipation in every step. She stood on the left side of Wang Bin, and the feeling of being high above made her feel emotional.
She looked at the people below and sighed in her heart: As expected, choice is more important than hard work. This step may change the fate of herself and her family.
