Immortal Cultivation and Life-Saving Guide

Speaking of Kui'er and Kui Xun, it's quite remarkable that Wei Xi was able to dig out the two merfolk from the depths of his memory.

After all, back in Zhenhai Sect, Wei Xi and Qin Feng almost became the Devouring Beast's meal; after escaping death from the trial grounds, Wei Xi got caught up in the conflict between King Wuyang and King Yuzhang, unfortunately becoming the scapegoat and receiving two years of imprisonment at Yinyang Slope.

At that time, Wei Xi was preoccupied with his own problems, so how could he have the energy to search for the whereabouts of two unfamiliar fish?
But when you're out in the game, you need not only to be tough, but also to be good at social maneuvering.

Especially for cultivators like Wei Xi, whose wings are not yet fully grown (whose fists are not strong enough), it is even more important to make many friends and pave the way for others.

Given that power and life are intertwined in the cultivation world, some young cultivators will inevitably rise to become leaders of various factions.
After entering the world of cultivation, Wei Xi generally did a good job of maintaining appearances. At least in Wei Xi's memory, she had not offended Kui Xi or Kuo Xun.

Even in the training grounds, Wei Xi helped two merfolk, and the so-called Dead Water City in the Bone Reef Sea was revealed to Wei Xi by Pisces.

According to the slugs' description, the environment of Bone Reef Sea was far more dangerous than the intelligence reports suggested. Having been paid to do his bidding, and valuing his life, Wei Xi decided to first find the two merfolk to learn the truth.

The premise is that the two mermaids are still alive.

"The situation was too chaotic at the time..." Qin Feng's memory of that period was obviously a bit hazy. "Um, I remember the Devouring Beast... after it ate that array core... there should have been fourteen people who survived!"

"No," Qin Feng immediately corrected, "Including those with connections brought by King Wuyang, a total of twenty-one people made it out of the training ground alive!"

“Yun Qing and Lei Zhe eloped,” Lian Gouyan began counting on his fingers. “Fourteen cultivators from various sects survived. I remember two of them were seriously injured and died before they could leave Zhenhai Sect.”

"Among the remaining people, there are quite a few seriously injured. Chi Pei from Linchuan Pavilion is one of them. He was unconscious for several days before he barely woke up."

Unlike Lian Gouhan, who was involved in intelligence gathering, Wei Xi had actually been through the trials. It could even be said that Xiao Qingqing's current miserable situation was largely due to Wei Xi.

"If you're talking about merfolk, I remember that all the disciples of the Devouring Sea Sect survived..."

After receiving a positive response, Wei Xi felt even more confident about his plan.

"In that case, let's first visit the Devouring Sea Sect to see our old friends and inquire about the situation in the Bone Reef Sea."

After finalizing their action plan, Wei Xi and his two companions embarked on a frantic journey.

Feeling a growing sense of urgency that this mission was far from simple, Wei Xi placed even greater emphasis on his cultivation.

He rode horses by day and meditated at night. Wei Xi, who was barely considered talented, eventually followed in Qin Feng's footsteps and showed early symptoms of a cultivation fanatic.

Unfortunately, the gap between people cannot always be bridged by diligent cultivation. Half a month passed, and Wei Xi's Qi Palace showed no signs of movement; his strength remained a pitiful Foundation Establishment level.

Of course, in today's cultivation world where talent is scarce, a fifteen-year-old Foundation Establishment cultivator is also a key target for cultivation by most sects, receiving slightly better treatment than ordinary disciples but slightly less than core disciples.

Yes, despite being constantly plagued by bad luck and surviving countless near-death experiences, Wei Xi only reached the average level among his peers.

Considering Wei Xi's talent for moving people to tears, this was beyond everyone's expectations.

Fortunately, Wei Xi was a pragmatist. Qi and physical constitution were just the basics; what mattered was being able to translate them into combat power.

Wei Xi was confident that his combat power far surpassed that of cultivators of the same level, and that he could even kill a Core Formation cultivator in a desperate situation.

Regardless of whether Xia Xin was reduced to low health by Qin Feng, just tell me if that arrow was shot by Wei Xi.

Having prepared herself mentally, Wei Xi gave up the idea of ​​arduous training to improve her strength early on—it wasn't that this path was impassable, but that it was impassable for her, Wei Xi, due to her physical limitations.

While others face a long and arduous road to cultivation, if Wei Xi were to truly retreat into seclusion for arduous training, she would likely perish along the way. Fortunately, Wei Xi is quite optimistic—given her level of misfortune, she has likely experienced numerous near-death experiences, and her opportunities for breakthroughs in cultivation are plentiful.

If not, take the initiative to do something; the opportunities will only increase.

That's right, Wei Xi is that confident.

Of course, daily practice is still necessary, mainly to solidify one's cultivation.

Wei Xi devoted a great deal of time and energy to weapon forging research, and his notes filled a thick stack.

In addition to recording the characteristics, distribution, uses, and processing methods of the materials he had come into contact with, Wei Xi also tried to summarize the weapon-making methods he had mastered (including materials, blueprints, and directions for improvement) by category.

Currently, there is only one major category: puppets, with about ten different types of puppets each with unique functions. As for more advanced magical artifacts with higher combat power, those will have to be added later.

Although Wei Xi was not a studious person, she understood that this necessary sorting and recording would be very helpful for her future path as a weapon refiner.

Furthermore, Wei Xi, who was serious about cultivating immortality, decided to carry forward the fine traditions of his sect and prepare a notebook for his little apprentice in the future.

Another thing that troubled Wei Xi was the piece of wood called "[Ego]": whether in Nanjiang or Heiyuan, this magical piece of wood showed remarkable ability to resist Yin and Yang energies.

The problem was that the legendary material he had painstakingly acquired could only exert less than half of its power, which Wei Xi, who had witnessed the strange abilities of the Longevity Wood, simply could not tolerate.

Moreover, the lazy state of the "id" reminded Wei Xi of the "thread" – this person also only took action in times of crisis, clearly looking down on him.

As for why she became so obedient later, Wei Xi knew it was because the [Pulling Silk] had inexplicably grown together with his own bones, practically becoming one with him. She really couldn't do it without putting in some effort.

Touching the piece of wood in his arms, Wei Xi seriously considered whether it was feasible to put this piece of wood into his body.

Anyway, the purpose of finding these materials is to create an extra Qi Palace, and there seems to be no difference between placing it outside the body and inside the body.

With her mind opened up, Wei Xi felt a sudden sense of clarity, and her gaze towards her "true self" became more loving.

Along the way, besides Wei Xi working hard, Qin Feng, who was already a master of scrolls, put all his effort into studying the newly acquired "Regretful Summer".

“This thing is worth thirty million high-grade spirit stones,” Qin Feng said, wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief. “It’s definitely not easy to control.”

"This thing is like a bottomless pit; you can't even fill an entire palace with air to feed it!"

【Hate Summer】is a flowing stone that changes shape depending on the density of spiritual energy in its surroundings. Compared to other types of spiritual energy, it prefers ice-attribute spiritual power.

I've been traveling a lot lately, and the spiritual energy along the way is thin and mixed, so I can't get used to the taste of [Hanxia].

Therefore, Qin Feng has recently been feeding all his vast spiritual power to [Hanxia].

This is a good thing. Wei Xi has already imagined the scene in the battle where [Hanxia] sweeps away all the spiritual energy around her.

Just thinking about it makes me happy for Qin Feng's opponent.

Finally, in late August, Wei Xi and his two companions arrived at the vast sea of ​​Dongyi. (End of Chapter)
