Having pocketed the elixir into his spatial ring,
Ye Wangchuan turned to Li Luo and stopped a passing servant to ask,
"Excuse me, can you tell me which room Fang Que is in?"
"Ah, Young Master Ye Wangchuan, Miss Li Luo, Guest Fang Que has already retired to his guest room to rest."
The servant quickly explained.
Ye Wangchuan was not surprised at this revelation.
It was late at night already, and it seemed normal for Fang Que to be asleep.
"Then get me a guest room."
As soon as Ye Wangchuan made this request,
The servant's gears started turning rapidly.
She recalled what an elder had once told her.
Whenever you see Ye Wangchuan and Li Luo together, do whatever it takes to play matchmaker.
With this thought in mind, the servant responds,
"I'm afraid there are no guest rooms available, Young Master Ye Wangchuan."
"Hmm? Are there so few guest rooms in the Li residence?"
Ye Wangchuan was a bit puzzled.
He was thinking about whether to directly purchase a carriage and return to the Ye's residence for the night.
"Well, then you can sleep in my room."
Li Luo casually suggested.
Ye Wangchuan pondered for a moment and then nodded.
He had to return to the Ling Mountain by dawn, so it didn't matter where he slept.
So it was that Li Luo began leading the way, pulling Ye Wangchuan's hand.
From behind,
The servant gave a thumbs-up to Li Luo's back.
Well done, Miss.
We are absolutely rooting for you to be together with Ye Wangchuan.
It's said that the servants in the Ye family get a free revival once a year; we can't help but be envious.
...
...
Inside Li Luo's bedroom,
It was just a simple ancient bedroom.
There was a bed, a table, a cupboard, and some incense.
"Phew."
After lighting the candle and positioning it, Li Luo opened her closet and said to Ye Wangchuan,
"You'll be sleeping on the floor, is that okay?"
"No need."
Ye Wangchuan waved his hand, pulled up a chair, and said as he sat down,
"I'm breaking through to the second level tonight, so I won't be sleeping."
"Eh...all right then."
Li Luo's mouth twitched, and she left to bathe.
Meanwhile, Ye Wangchuan took out 27 cultivation pills and 9 Foundation Building Pills.
The second level is a major realm, and naturally breaking through it would require a lot more than a minor one.
Ye Wangchuan did the math in his head and figured that if he consumed all these pills, he would likely break through.
With this in mind, he started rapidly swallowing the pills like one would dates.
But reaching the second level wasn't as simple as just swallowing pills.
After reaching the peak of cultivation, the next step was body forging.
The difference between mortals and those at the first level is merely that the latter are a bit more robust.
The difference between the first and second levels is just that those at the second level are a bit sturdier and can start manipulating spiritual energy.
However, a mortal body cannot manipulate spiritual energy.
Therefore, one needs to forge the body to allow it to absorb and control spiritual energy.
Body forging can be difficult or simple depending on how you look at it.
If you do not eat, drink, or sleep, and maintain this for two months, then you would successfully forge your body!
Of course,
Ye Wangchuan certainly would not opt for this method.
If he held out for two months, he believed that the other Child of Destiny would have already reached the third level.
So, he didn't wait long before reaching into his spatial ring.
Soon, he found and retrieved a silver pill.
"Good thing Four Elder gave me a Body Forging Pill on my eighteenth birthday."
Ye Wangchuan murmured, consuming the Body Forging Pill.
This pill had a straightforward effect.
The process of body refining was shortened from two months to just six hours.
Ye Wangchuan just needs to fast, abstain from drinking, and stay awake for these six hours.
For him, it couldn't be simpler.
After breaking through to the first stage, Ye Wangchuan can stay awake for three days straight.
Although that would very exhausting.
While fanning himself with a fan, Ye Wangchuan fetched a marksmanship book from his spatial ring and began to read to pass the time.
…
…
About an hour later.
Dressed in thin pajamas, Li Luo walked into the bedroom while drying her hair.
Seeing Ye Wangchuan reading on a wooden chair, she voiced her confusion,
"Aren't you in the middle of cultivation?"
"I am cultivating right now. In six hours, I'll break through to the second stage."
Ye Wangchuan replied casually.
Upon hearing this, Li Luo's expression hardened.
Damn it!
She barely reached the initial stage of the first level and he was already going to reach the initial stage of the second level tomorrow?
Despite her contributing to it, wasn't it too exaggerated?!
Li Luo thought and looked at her own system space.
1200 villain emotion points left.
"As long as I consume 15 cultivation pills and 5 Foundation Building Pills, I think I can advance to the middle-stage of the first level."
"I have to level up too!"
Li Luo muttered, immediately grabbing a handful of pills and started to snack on them.
To avoid having her pills snatched by Ye Wangchuan.
Li Luo purposely bought only one pill from the system at a time.
Seeing this, the corners of Ye Wangchuan's lips twitched slightly.
Did Li Luo actually have so many pills left?
She hadn't been completely stripped off by him yet.
When only 300 villain emotion points are left for Li Luo, she successfully breaks through to the middle stage of the initial level.
"Hehe, how about that."
Li Luo, hands on her hips, strutted over to Ye Wangchuan.
"Mhm, impressive."
Without looking at Li Luo, Ye Wangchuan gave her a thumbs up.
"......"
"I'm going to sleep now! I don't care about you anymore!"
Li Luo speechlessly announced before drying her hair and slipping under her covers for sleep.
Meanwhile, Ye Wangchuan went on reading about marksmanship.
…
The next day.
A strong aura emanated from Ye Wangchuan's body.
He closed his book and stretched lazily.
Feeling his body automatically absorbing the aura in the air, the corners of Ye Wangchuan's lips curled upward slightly.
He had successfully forged his body!
With his body being washed by aura from that point forward, Ye Wangchuan no longer had to consume food to replenish energy.
Instead, he directly converted aura into energy.
Moreover, his body would no longer produce any waste!
No more skin flakes, oil, dirt, etc., and no more trips to the restroom.
One can meditate closed-door for a thousand years and won’t get dirty.
More importantly, Ye Wangchuan can control aura to use divine powers now!
People on the first level cannot use divine powers, for they have no aura.
At this time, Ye Wangchuan noticed Li Luo was still asleep, his lips twitched a little.
She slept for eleven hours straight.
Thinking about it, Ye Wangchuan walked over and shook awake Li Luo.
"Uh, hmm?"
Li Luo sat up and gave Ye Wangchuan a somewhat speechless look.
After freshening up and organizing her appearance as usual, she went out with Ye Wangchuan.
Outside Li Luo’s residence.
Several maids were busily working, and Old Man Li just happened to pass by.
Suddenly, Old Man Li saw a rosy-cheeked Li Luo and a somewhat weary Ye Wangchuan walking out together.
Li Luo's rosy cheeks were due to sleeping for eleven hours, while Ye Wangchuan's weariness came from staying up all night.
But in Old Man Li's eyes, it was a different story.
"What the heck?!"
Old Man Li's eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at the two figures in the distance.
At that moment.
Fang Que approached Li Luo and Ye Wangchuan.
Noticing that Li Luo and Ye Wangchuan had advanced another level in their cultivation, Fang Que asked in confusion.
"Did you two cultivate together again? Why didn't you include me?"
In the distance.
"What the heck?!!!!"
Old Man Li, hearing Fang Que's words, almost popped his eyes out.
Dual cultivation? Again?
Good! Very good!
Li Luo, you're really making something of yourself!
But why does the master want to join in too?
Explosive Plot Song Gua crossed over into another world, bringing along a whole crew of his doppelgangers—all of them mischief-makers. This was a world where everyone could choose a class. Song Gua became a "Bondweaver," capable of borrowing power, while his doppelgangers took on a wide variety of classes, covering just about everything. The number of doppelgangers grew day by day, each one a talented individual with a charming way of speaking. Under Song Gua's brilliant leadership, they would "greet" each other daily and engage in friendly "sparring," pulling off one major scheme after another on Earth. Sometimes they were bandits—stealing bosses, plundering mines, snatching resources. Sometimes they were saviors—descending like divine warriors to face world bosses threatening to massacre cities. Sometimes they even went undercover, infiltrating various major factions to stir up trouble from within, keeping their enemies constantly on edge. To prevent their doppelganger abilities from being exposed, Song Gua made them wear masks with mahjong tile patterns and don Taoist robes in various colors. "Remember, in front of outsiders, call me 'The Dice.'" "Got it! Boss!" "Not 'Boss'—it's 'The Dice.' Think about the vibe, pay attention to the vibe." "Yes! Boss!" "For crying out loud..." From then on, whenever they appeared, they would have their own theme song playing: ~Hey~ paying respects at the mountain stronghold at night~ whose arm is draped over whose shoulder~ gather your courage and follow along...
