Adorably Cute Baby: Mommy's Going Against the Heavens

Shen Yunxi paused, her tone becoming more firm and unwavering, "If you think it's not worth it, then forget it."

The shopkeeper's smile froze for a moment. He coughed, rubbed his hands together, and tentatively asked, "Miss, do you think ten taels is too little? This is top-quality mutton-fat jade, plus the exquisite carving and the spiritual energy it contains..." He paused, carefully observing Shen Yunxi's expression, and added, "Do you think we could add a little more?"

"No." Shen Yunxi's tone was firm and unwavering: "Shopkeeper, if this jade pendant is really as good as you say, why is it sitting in such a corner untouched?"

She tilted her head slightly, her gaze sweeping over the spot where the jade pendant had originally been placed. It was indeed dimly lit and easily overlooked. "Besides..." she paused, then extended a finger and gently brushed it across the surface of the jade pendant, her fingertip picking up a layer of fine dust. "There's so much dust on it, it's obviously been neglected for a long time, so it's not something precious."

Shen Yunxi withdrew her finger and looked at the shopkeeper with a half-smile: "Ten taels is already the price given because it still has some spiritual energy. If the shopkeeper thinks it's not worth it, then forget it."

"Deal!" The shopkeeper gritted his teeth, forcing a smile, but his heart was bleeding. Ten taels of silver was far from the price he had expected. He thought he had found a big customer, but it turned out to be a penny-pincher. Nevertheless, he still made a small profit today!

Shen Yunxi selected a few more items, paid the money, and returned to the inn.

After returning to the inn, seeing that the two children had not yet returned, I went back to my room.

"Master, this jade pendant contains pure spiritual energy, which can assist in cultivation." Xue Rong's voice rang in Shen Yunxi's mind: "You can try holding the jade pendant in your hand, feel the fluctuations of spiritual energy within it, and then guide this spiritual energy into your meridians for cultivation. In addition, the spiritual energy in the jade pendant is gentle and pure, which is compatible with your spiritual power attribute and should be able to accelerate your cultivation speed."

Finally, Xue Rong reminded her, "During cultivation, remember to keep your mind free of distractions and concentrate to absorb the spiritual energy from the jade pendant to the greatest extent." "Okay!" Shen Yunxi took out the mutton-fat jade pendant from her bosom. The jade pendant felt warm and smooth to the touch and emitted a faint spiritual energy.

She then sat cross-legged on the bed, formed hand seals, slowly closed her eyes, and began to circulate her spiritual energy for cultivation. As the spiritual energy circulated, the jade pendant emitted a soft light. At first, the light was faint, like a firefly, but gradually, the light became brighter and brighter, eventually filling the entire room.

At the same time, an ancient and mysterious message flooded into Shen Yunxi's mind. This message was as vast as the sea and as deep as an abyss, as if it contained the infinite mysteries of the world.

Shen Yunxi was extremely surprised. This was actually an ancient cultivation technique called "Phoenix Nirvana Technique". Cultivating this technique allowed one to be reborn from the ashes, ascend to Nirvana, and achieve the supreme Dao!

However, cultivating this technique is no easy task; it requires the assistance of several special spiritual herbs, none of which can be omitted. Shen Yunxi pondered to herself, the names of these spiritual herbs appearing one by one in her mind. Coincidentally, according to the records, these spiritual herbs can be found in the Sunset Mountains near Qingshui Town.

The perils of the Sunset Mountains made her hesitate slightly; the area was teeming with monsters and fraught with danger, where a single misstep could cost her her life. However, in order to improve her strength as quickly as possible and to protect her two precious children, Shen Yunxi finally made up her mind and decided to risk venturing into the Sunset Mountains to find the spiritual herbs she needed.
