“This medicinal bath will nourish your body. Young Master Shen has been having sex non-stop for the past few days. Although you look fine, you’ve already suffered a loss internally. Tonight, you’ll nourish your body first. I’ll serve you well tomorrow night.”

Xi Lengyan stood beside the bathtub and gave Shen Ping a clear view. Shen Ping smiled and said, “Miss Xi, do you want to bathe with me?”

Xi Lengyan blushed and said, “Master, don’t seduce me. If I go into the water, I don’t know what Master will do to me.” With that, she quickly left.

The next night, the energetic Shen Ping quickly stripped Xi Lengyan down to a pink undergarment. Under the light of the red candle, her skin was moist and shiny. Soon, a decadent sound sounded in the room.

Less than two hours later, Xi Lengyan could not take it anymore. She panted and said, “Master, why don’t you let Chunxiang come along? This girl is listening to the wall.”

Before Shen Ping could speak, the maidservant, Chunxiang, rushed into the bedroom and said with a face full of spring, “Miss, you finally remember me.” “You wretched girl, hurry up and help Young Master.”

“Sure.”

For the next six or seven days, the three of them stayed in the courtyard and enjoyed themselves. They recited poems during the day and played the flute every night.

“Chunxiang, my cultivation has already recovered by 60%. It’s time for us to leave Shanyang County.” On this day, Xi Lengyan said faintly.

Chunxiang could tell that her Miss was reluctant to part with Young Master Shen. After all, be it when she was alive or after she was bom, Young Master Shen was her first man. Although they were not married, they were husband and wife.

“Miss, although Young Master Shen is good, he’s a scholar. If we bring him along, we’ll only be a burden and harm him.”

Actually, Chunxiang was also a little reluctant. She had experienced Shen Ping’s power these few days. That feeling was simply happier than anything in the world.

“Chunxiang, how can I not know what you’re saying? It’s just that, it’s just that… Forget it. Let’s pack up and leave. I’ll leave this courtyard to him. I hope that we’ll meet again in the future.”

The two women left without saying goodbye. However, in her bedroom, Xi Lengyan left a letter. With Shen Ping’s powerful true spirit, he could naturally sense their departure. However, he did not force them to stay because in their eyes, they were from two different worlds.

He sat at the table and opened the letter. There were beautiful words on it. “Young Master Shen, to be honest, I’m a ghost. If the two of us are together I’m afraid we’ll be punished by the heavens. Moreover, I still have something to do, so I can only leave without saying goodbye. I know that Young Master Shen is devoted to Dao. There’s a Daoist temple on Mount Daliang near Shanyang County. Young Master, you can try it. If you don’t have talent, I hope you can change your mind and be obsessed with learning from now on to take the imperial examination. We’ll meet again if fate allows it. Young Master Shen, don’t miss me.”

His fingers flickered. The letter burned to ashes. Over the past few days, he had become more and more familiar with the use of his own magic power. Although it was still difficult to activate various methods, he had already understood that the Dao Bone was the foundation of all magic power.

“Miss Xi and Chunxiang are indeed quite kind. If it were any other ghost, they would have eaten me up long ago.”

He shook his head and suppressed his distracting thoughts. He rushed to Mount Daliang the next day. Mount Daliang was not a famous mountain or river in the twelve states of Great Zhao. The mountain peaks were not as steep and majestic as other mountain ranges. Instead, the terrain was relatively flat but the area was very vast, stretching for nearly a hundred miles. The mountains were filled with vegetation and few pedestrians.

Not long after Shen Ping arrived, he encountered a few snakes and insects. After walking along the winding and rugged mountain path for more than four hours, he saw the villagers who went up the mountain to pick herbs. After asking around, he learned that the Daoist temple was at the top of the third mountain.

He could vaguely see it when he looked up, but he could not see any buildings He hurried on his way and arrived at the entrance of the Daoist temple at dusk.

I m here to seek the Dao. I hope to enter the Dao Sect.”

The Daoist temple was not big, so it was easy to find the Daoist priest. He directly explained his purpose. One of the older Daoists sized up Shen Ping. This time, Shen Ping did not use his true spirit to hide the aura of magic powers in his body. “Eh, you actually have magic powers. It seems that you have talent in the Dao Bone. Come up.”

“Yes, Daoist Master.”

Shen Ping took a few steps forward. The Daoist priest checked and nodded slightly. “Have you entered other Daoist sects before?”

“No, I met a wandering Daoist priest in the past. That Daoist priest taught me a few incantations and I practiced them for a few years.”

“I see.” The Abbey Dean is not here. You can stay in the temple first and the Abbey Dean makes a decision when he comes back.”

Just like that, Shen Ping stayed in the Changling Daoist Temple for three months. Although he had not officially entered the Dao Sect of Changling Temple in the past three months, the Daoist priest surnamed Chen had still given him a cultivation technique called the Changling Technique. Although it was only an entry-level cultivation technique, the transportation and absorption technique recorded in it made up for his understanding of the rules of this world.

Only now did he know that when absorbing cultivation, not only did he have to pass through the Dao Bone, but he also had to absorb a wisp of vitality in the world. This vitality was only a name. For example, the purple qi that rose from the east every day was vitality. There was also the Yin Yang Qi, the Five Elements Qi, and so on that were bom in other special environments. The Dao Sect also had a Vitality Pill that was refined from medicinal herbs.

Therefore, without an orthodox cultivation method, it was impossible to use spells and other methods.

“Bean Soldiers, Messenger Paper Cranes, Golden Armor Puppets, Substitution Technique… These are all Daoist techniques. Interesting. Looks like the trick lies in absorbing a wisp of vitality.”

Different cultivation systems indeed presented different methods. Previously Shen Ping had many methods to cultivate immortal spiritual roots, but he could not give life to dead things. For example, puppets could only be controlled by means like the Art of Controlling Things. Here, even puppets would have simple intelligence after being given magic power.

“This must be the influence of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. The Dao in this world must be extraordinary.”

His face lit up. The Heaven and Earth Great Dao in the green hall world was actually very ordinary. Even if he relied on it to break through to the Venerable Sovereign realm, he would still be the most ordinary Venerable Sovereign. Therefore, after choosing the Chaos Hole Great Dao, he did not impatiently use the Heaven and Earth Great Dao like Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth to construct the Chaos Hole Space. Instead, he entered the palace world of Realm Sea Peak.

Looking at it now, this was undoubtedly correct. The stronger the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, the more complete and stable the Chaos Hole Space constructed would be. The power of the small world he would use in the future would also be stronger.

“Shen Ping, your cultivation has improved very quickly in the past three months. Even the inner disciples of those Great Dao Sects are not inferior to you. Although the Abbey Dean hasn’t returned, I’ve sent a letter to explain the situation. Yesterday, the Abbey Dean replied and asked me to take in disciples on his behalf.

“Today, I’ll officially take you in as a disciple and give you a Daoist name, Ling Zhen. From now on, you’re Daoist Disciple Ling Zhen of my Changling Temple.” In the Dao Ancestral Hall, Daoist Chen, who was also Daoist Ling Wu, said solemnly in front of the ancestral statue of Changling lineage.

Shen Ping hurriedly bowed. “Thank you, Abbey Dean. Thank you, Daoist Ling Wu.”? 6

A moment later, after completing the entire disciple recruitment process, Daoist Ling Wu smiled. “Ling Zhen, stand up. From now on, you’re my Martial Nephew. Our Changling Temple is small, and there are only ten people in the sect. Currently, your fellow disciples are following your master. When they return, 111 introduce them to you one by one.

“In addition, you can enter and read the books in the temple if you want to. Remember not to take them out or mess them up.”

Shen Ping was just waiting for this and said, “Thank you, Martial Uncle Ling Wu.”???? B

There were not many books in Changling Temple. There were only 50 to 60 books, and most of them were useless. However, there were still a few books that recorded information about cultivation.

In the Daoist sect, all cultivation was based on cultivation. Whoever had a high cultivation could control the Dao meridians in the world. Every hundred years was a threshold of cultivation. Those below a hundred years were considered Daoist Disciples, and those above a hundred years could be considered Daoist Priests.

The foundation of cultivation was vitality. The vitality absorbed every day would condense patterns similar to growth rings on the Dao Bone The more patterns there were, the higher the cultivation. At a certain level, it could even turn something rotten into something magical and create something out of nothing.

Shen Ping had checked the growth rings of his Dao bone. Among them, there were less than a circle of patterns condensed by the Changling lineage’s cultivation of the five elements. Similarly, the Yin and Yang patterns he had obtained from Ghost Concubine Xi Lengyan were less than a circle
