Thump!
A muffled sound emanated from Xue An’s body.
It was a sound coming deep from his tendons and bones, signifying that Xue An had finally taken the first step on the path of Daoist cultivation.
Although he was still miles away from the former Immortal Venerable, he had, after all, taken that step.
The so-called true man is one who cultivates his strength throughout his body, thereby achieving feats beyond the ability of ordinary people.
And in the Xiaoyao realm, one’s body is refined into an integrated whole, possessing tremendous power in every movement.
More importantly, upon entering the Xiaoyao realm, one’s lifespan can reach one hundred and fifty years.
This is a tremendous temptation.
That’s why people in the secular world call it Xiaoyao.
But Xue An knew this was far from enough.
Because the realms of cultivation were divided into: True Person, Xiaoyao
Realm, Heavenly Human Realm, Loose Immortal Realm, Longevity Realm, Golden Immortal, True Immortal, Great Luo, Immortal King, Immortal Emperor, Immortal Venerable, and finally, the legendary Saint Realm.
He had only taken the first step for now.
However, the now sober Song Yi was full of envy and shock.
This was the first time he had seen someone break through to the Xiaoyao Realm so quickly.
Especially considering this person was only in his early twenties, the news, if it got out, would shock countless people.
“To enter Xiaoyao is to become an Immortal!” Song Yi murmured to himself.
As Xue An stood up, he felt his strength not just ten times greater but also his spirit fully replenished, as if the world was at his fingertips.
But Xue An’s heart was as stable as a boulder, and in a blink, he had dispelled these illusions.
By the side of this pond, he had also gathered many herbs, which were perfect for refining the Primordial Essence Elixir.
Now that Xue An had broken through to the Xiaoyao Realm, his elixir refining speed had greatly increased.
In the blink of an eye, the piles of precious herbs were refined into liquids by Xue An, who then began the actual process of refining.
Xue Lan watched from the side, her eyes dizzy with amazement, feeling as if her entire worldview had been turned upside down.
Song Yi was even more profoundly impacted.
If Xue An’s breakthrough to Xiaoyao was the first shock he experienced, then this elixir refinement made Song Yi feel an urge to kneel.
The famous and large sects all knew how to refine elixirs, but which one didn’t require fasting, bathing, and lengthy, complicated preparations before finally starting the fire to refine elixirs?
Even so, there was still a high probability of failure.
This was why nowadays, other than disciples from a few large sects, hardly anyone could afford elixirs—they were too expensive.
Moreover, the techniques of elixir refinement were closely guarded secrets.
But observing Mr. Xue, his movements were like clouds flowing in the water, almost instantly successful.
Plop.
A dozen elixirs, emitting a rich fragrance, fell into Xue An’s hands.
It took less than five minutes for the elixirs to be successfully refined.
This success rate and efficiency left Song Yi dumbstruck.
At this moment, Xue Xiang was drooling and said, “Papa, what is this? It smells so good!”
Xue An gave a faint smile and then did something that nearly made Song Yi’s eyeballs pop out.
He directly gave one elixir to each of his daughters, Xue Xiang and Xue Nian.
“Try them and see how they taste!”
“Mhm mhm!”
The two little girls each took one and swallowed the elixirs as if they were eating peanuts.
Song Yi was close to tears.
Any one of these elixirs, if released, could cause the disciples of famous large sects to go crazy.
Yet Mr. Xue was letting his two daughters eat them as snacks?
At this time, Xue An gave another one to Xue Lan.
“Have a taste!”
Xue Lan felt somewhat embarrassed, about to decline.
Song Yi spoke up quietly, “Have it, young lady, this is your great fortune!”
After hesitating a moment, Xue Lan swallowed the elixir.
Very quickly!
Xue Lan felt a sudden pain in her abdomen, then her face flushed red, and she ran off to a distance.
Not long after, she returned somewhat shyly.
By this time, all the grime from her body had been expelled.
It looked like a flawless piece of beautiful jade, clear inside and out.
Not to mention anything else, just this one Elixir alone was enough to extend the girl’s life by fifty years, and maintain her youth forever. Song Yi’s envy was so strong that he almost drooled.
Xue An glanced at him indifferently. Song Yi quickly bowed his head respectfully.
“Why didn’t you follow her?”
Song Yi gave a bitter smile, “Now that Huo Shao is dead, returning to Zhongdu would mean certain death for me, so I might as well stay.”
What Song Yi didn’t mention was that when he had first woken up, Chen Rushi wanted to take him with her.
But Song Yi had stealthily divined his fortune.
The divination told him that his fate was uncertain, but a great opportunity awaited him.
As for how great this opportunity was,
Song Yi was also unclear.
Xue An remained noncommittal.
He neither disliked nor particularly liked this Song Yi.
Plainly put, this was just a cultivator who, relying on some skills, wandered among the secular noble houses.
“How long have I been meditating?”
“Papa, you’ve been sitting there for a quite a while,” Xue Xiang said.
“Oh, didn’t you girls feel bored?”
“Not at all! In the past, my sister and I often stayed at home all day long!” Xue Xiang said.
Xue An felt a pang in his heart, thinking that in his absence, these two little girls must have suffered a lot.
After all, Tang Xuan’er had to take care of them and also go out to earn money, leaving the girls alone at home.
With that thought, Xue An bent down to lift his two daughters into his arms, smiling, “Then Papa will take you girls down the mountain!”
With those words, Xue An lightly tapped the ground with his toes, and his body soared to the skies.
At the same time, he left a message for Song Yi, saying, “Take Xue Lan down the mountain!”
Xue Lan looked up, staring blankly as Xue An disappeared into the sky.
By that time, Song Yi said respectfully, “Miss Xue Lan, let’s descend the mountain!”
“Did Brother An… become an immortal?” Xue Lan murmured.
Song Yi shook his head with a light sigh, “Not exactly an immortal, but close enough. Moreover, Mr. Xue possesses a dignity that commands respect. His future accomplishments are simply unimaginable!”
Song Yi spoke with genuine feeling.
Xue Lan, however, had mixed emotions.
At this point, the little girl’s fantasy in her heart gradually extinguished.
Because she knew, the gap between herself and Brother An was as vast as the difference between the clouds and the mud.
At that moment, Xue An, carrying his two daughters, flew directly into the midair.
Of course, someone from the Xiaoyao Realm wouldn’t have such strength.
But it was effortless for Xue An.
The two little girls excitedly looked at the bright moon and the stars scattered across the sky.
“Papa, the moon is so big!”
“Yes, and it looks like a half-eaten baked bun too!” Xue Xiang was always thinking about food.
Xue An smiled lightly, “Close your eyes, Papa will show you another magic trick.”
“Mm-hmm!”
The two little girls obediently closed their eyes.
A flash of light appeared in Xue An’s eyes, and then a vast screen of light emerged beneath his feet.
This screen of light, like a piece of glass, floated in midair. Xue An let go, placing his two daughters atop the screen of light.
“It’s done!”
When the little girls opened their eyes, they saw an extremely beautiful scene.
The screen perfectly reflected everything in the sky, the moon, the stars, all adorning it.
It was as if there were two skies.
Xue Xiang cautiously took a step and found it to be as steady as solid ground. Then she excitedly began to run around with Xue Nian.
Xue An watched his two daughters with a smile.
Below his feet were the lights of a thousand families, the fireworks of the human world!
