Crossing into Immortal Cultivation

  Another day passed, and Xu Ziqing returned to the Scattered Cultivators' Alliance.

  Qingfeng Miaoyue saw Gongzi return, extremely joyful, immediately prepared wine and food to welcome Xu Ziqing. After dinner, he let Chonghua practice outside, while he himself entered a secret room.

  Sitting cross-legged on **, Xu Ziqing spread out his left palm, and in the center of his palm was a packet of seeds.

  These seeds are divided into two colors, one is light yellow and the other is milky white, which are the seeds of golden thread grass and silver thread grass. They were obtained from the royal family.

  Yesterday, after leaving Shan Yan Ridge, Xu Zi Qing went to the Wang residence again. Unexpectedly, the ghost sisters Yin and Yang had not left yet, but instead were waiting for him at the Wang residence.

  After seeing Xuzi Qing return, the ghostly Yin and Yang sisters seemed to have let out a sigh of relief, chatting and laughing as they bid him farewell. As the two of them left, the Wang family also wiped away their cold sweat.

  After Wang Kangde paid the ransom, he also discussed the matter of Shan'ai Ridge with Xu Ziqing.

  He had already learned from Gui's sister that Yan Hongzhi and the others had secretly plotted against Xu Ziqing, so he apologized repeatedly. Wang Kangde was a cunning and calculating person, and after some thought, he realized that his own son had been used as a scapegoat by those three people. If it weren't for the first day's experience, this time's training would be wasted! He was furious in his heart. Therefore, he knew that Xu Ziqing was innocent, but he couldn't help feeling resentful. However, after Xu Ziqing returned, he found that his cultivation had become unpredictable, and he didn't know that he had made a breakthrough. Only then did he put down his resentment and speak these words of apology.

  Xu Ziqing and Wang Kangde 'talked', found that he didn't know about the demon vine, and secretly let out a breath of relief.

  Later, Wang Kangde used the excuse that he was implicated in this matter and still protected Wang Yingwu to send him a pair of twin-stemmed grass.

  Xu Ziqing naturally didn't want those striped grasses and instead 'desired' to ask for seeds.

  It's not difficult to get the seeds, and over the years, other woodworkers have also sought to obtain them. The royal family has always been generous in giving them away as a way of building good relationships, but once they fall into others' hands, they can't cultivate the same high-quality twin-striped grass that the royal family has. That's why the royal family has been able to maintain its position among the top families with this unique skill.

  Xu Ziqing opened his right palm again, where there were also several seeds of different colors, which Xu Ziqing had bought from the exchange hall on the road. Now that he looked at them, he didn't think they were any different.

  He thought for a moment, then lifted up two different gold-threaded grass seeds with both hands, and quietly operated his spiritual power to send them into the two seeds.

  The next moment, the seed suddenly underwent a transformation.

  Only the seeds on the left and right sides sprouted at the same time, and soon their roots were buried in Xu Ziqing's palm. The green stem grew rapidly, and in no time it had grown to a length of several inches.

  Later, the grass stem no longer grows, but instead produces leaves on both sides. The leaves are as thick and thin as fingers, initially bright green like the stem, but later gradually stained with a faint golden thread in the middle. When the color is dazzling like gold, it means that the Golden Thread Grass has matured.

  Xu Ziqing immediately stopped and no longer inputted spiritual energy.

  He looked carefully to the left and right, but had not yet seen any difference. The roots of the two golden thread grasses suddenly withered, and the whole spiritual grass also died.

  Xu Ziqing couldn't help but pause in thought.

  He suddenly remembered that the name of the twin-flowered grass came from the fact that two blades of grass grew together with a common root. Now, thinking about it, maybe one blade alone couldn't survive, which is why they grow this way.

  He then took a pair of seeds with pale yellow and milky white colors in his hands and processed them according to the method.

  This time, the golden thread grass and silver thread grass grew extremely fast, their speed not slower than just now. Xu Zi Qing also discovered that after the roots of the two spiritual grasses were born, they approached each other, entwining with each other, and soon became inseparable. Afterwards, when growing upwards, the stems and leaves of the two spiritual grasses were like their roots, mutually protecting and twining around each other, 'interlocking' and growing together...

  Wait until it matures, only to see the golden and silver two-color stripes intersecting and shining together, set against the green jade-like stems and leaves, truly ethereal and exquisitely beautiful.

  It is strange that the two strains of twin-flowered grass, gold-thread grass and silver-thread grass, which were induced by Xu Ziqing, are almost identical in shape and size, with hardly any difference.

  Xu Ziqing carefully considered and didn't realize that he had used any special techniques. If there was, it was only because he had brought out the "Wàn Mù Zhǒng Xīn" (Ten Thousand Trees Kindness Heart), sending out a 'pure' and refined Yi Wood energy, and the amount sent out was also ordinary and unremarkable. His original intention was to control the environment of the spiritual grass growing in his two hands, but unexpectedly it was an accidental hit.

  However, from this he also knew that there was no difference between the two batches of twin-flowered grass seeds.

  He let out a breath of relief, and with a slight movement of his palms, the two fully grown Double Lotus Grasses floated up, and with another thought, he stored them in his storage ring.

  He first put the seeds aside and quietly meditated.

  He had the cultivation of refining his Qi to the ninth level, but he could only force the growth of a few Double Lotus Grass seeds. Yet, it consumed nearly a third of his spiritual energy! This showed that although the "Heart of Wood" was good, its effectiveness increased with one's cultivation level. With Xu Zi Qing's current level...he still couldn't control it as he wished.

  But thinking about the future, Xu Ziqing couldn't help but feel some longing in her heart.

  Admiration is just admiration after all, if he wants to make his admiration a reality, he still needs to work harder. So, without getting tired, he continued to operate continuously until the spiritual energy in his dantian was abundant again, and only then did he stop.

  Xu Ziqing stood upright with a dignified expression, first selecting two grains of plump and round double-ridge grass seeds, then removing his clothes to reveal his already somewhat youthful and robust physique.

  Then, he picked up the two seeds and placed them in his palm, clasped his hands together, and quickly circulated the "Seed Heart Secret". Instantly, his whole body felt hot, and the place where the vine was located also showed some signs of movement.

  Only to see that the palms of their hands were connected, a faint green light quickly emerged from the point where they met. The green light gradually increased and soon became very bright, enveloping both of their hands entirely!

  Xu Ziqing suddenly opened his eyes, and a burst of green light shot out from them. His entire being seemed to take on an air of mystery!

  If someone is with him in the same room, they can see that he is now like a piece of jade sculpture, naturally perfect, but also warning people not to approach.

  After a long time, Xu Ziqing finally separated his palms.

  At this time, the two seeds in his palm did not fall out, but floated quietly in front of him.

  Xu Ziqing's expression was solemn, his right arm raised, and in front of him, he drew a mysterious trajectory. Then he opened his mouth lightly: "Double-patterned grass, for me from wood." Again, he shouted clearly, "Come to my dantian!"

  A green light suddenly shot out from Xu Zi Qing's Dan Tian and hit the two Double Lotus Seeds.

  The seeds of the twin lotus grass were pulled by Qing Guang, initially not very willing, but this resistance only lasted for less than a breath, and immediately became obedient... Qing Guang wrapped around the two seeds, quickly shrinking back into Xu Zi's dantian.

  Xu Ziqing slowly let out a breath, and the green light around his body dissipated by more than half, with only his abdomen still shrouded in this glow.

  He closed his eyes and entered a meditative state, quickly re-circulating the "Kindling Secret", sensing the new seeds that had just entered his lower Dantian. Sure enough, from the previously harmonious and warm lower Dantian, there were two places that felt prickly, which turned out to be the Double Striped Grass.

  In the world inside the human body, it is the home ground of the demon vines.

  Xu Ziqing called out: "Rong Jin."

  Yao Teng hurriedly poked his head out: "Mother?"

  Xu Ziqing was taken aback, and immediately ordered: "I've found two helpers for you, go talk to them."

  "You've already discovered it, Mother," said Ling Feng naturally.

  Xu Ziqing smiled slightly and said softly: "Rong Jin is very clever."

  After hearing the praise, the demon vine was even more delighted and its consciousness immediately pounced on that pair of intertwined grasses.

  After all, it was Xu Ziqing's lifebound wood, and also a strange and evil bloodthirsty wood. Its vast consciousness and fierce aura were not something that the Double Pattern Grass could compare to. It had only just pounced over when the Double Pattern Grass's consciousness transformed into one of the countless fragments of shattered consciousness, being firmly stabilized by the Bloodthirsty Vine in the dantian, floating there.

  Surrounding the location of the You Teng seed - which is also the core of the Dan Tian.

  Finally subdued the twin lotus seed, Xuzi Qing also relaxed a bit. Soon again immersed in cultivation.

  From then on, cultivation was timeless, and in the blink of an eye, another year had passed.

  This year, Xu Ziqing didn't exactly go into seclusion, but he did stay at home most of the time and rarely went out. Except for occasionally going out to eat, he only went to the "Jiao Yi Tang" a few times to buy some necessities and get rid of some useless things. With no one bothering him and no petty people plotting against him, it was actually quite comfortable.

  However, after another half month had passed, someone came to visit.

  Qingfeng had always known that the master's temperament was warm and gentle, but he didn't know why since the master returned this time, he had added a few points of reverence. He originally didn't dare to be slow in the slightest, now he became even more obedient, serving him even more thoroughly.

  If someone came to visit in the past, no matter how lowly their position was, they would be turned away and asked to wait until the master had gone out before coming back to pay their respects. But this person was different, and it was necessary to report their arrival.

  Su Xun, the leader of the scattered repair alliance, could not be refused because of his high status and close friendship with the master.

  So Qingfeng had no choice but to stand in front of the quiet room, touch the banister a few times, and ask Xu Ziqing in a low and rapid voice: "Xu Xianchang, the Young Alliance Master has arrived."

  Xu Ziqing was in a quiet room, meditating, when he sensed that the restrictions on his body had been touched by someone in a familiar way. Upon listening carefully, he understood the difficulties that Qingfeng was facing.

  He didn't blame Qingfeng, after all, he was not in control of himself. Moreover, with Xu Ziqing's understanding of Su Xuan, he also knew that if there wasn't something important, he wouldn't come to disturb his cultivation.

  Thinking of this, Xu Ziqing immediately got up and walked out.

  Just as he reached the entrance, a wave of heat suddenly came, and he was taken aback. Could it be that Su Xun had made a move to test him? But on second thought, it didn't seem quite right.

  That heat has a 'fire' nature but no intense meaning, it seems that only because Xu Ziqing is too sensitive, he can perceive something.

  Then Xu Ziqing raised his head to look, and when he looked, he was stunned again.

  Only a handsome young man wearing fiery red robes, surrounded by flames, not only greatly increased his cultivation, but also the temperament of the whole person was extremely different from before.

  He stood there like that, as if standing in a sea of flames, his body was like a fierce fire wave, shocking people at first sight!

  Su Xun smiled at Xu Zi Qing and said proudly: "Brother Zi Qing, can you see any difference in me?"
