Cultivating Immortality in a Family: I Prove Immortality Through the Chaotic Dao Realm

Chapter 119 Yanran's Recent Situation, and the Daily Lives of the Women (Fifth Update)
On a winter morning, beside the Three Thousand Swords Waterfall, the morning light pierces through the misty spray, gilding the inner valley with a hazy golden veil.

This place is full of spiritual energy; even in the dead of winter, the water flows gently without freezing at all.

Having a rare moment of leisure today, Chen Qian decided to visit Yan Ran and Yan Fei, the brother and sister, in the outer valley.

Several months passed, and with a Taoist temple rich in spiritual energy and no shortage of resources, the brother and sister's magical power improved considerably, and they were only one step away from the peak of the fifth level of Qi Refining.

Yanran gets along well with Yunxi and Momo, and they have a deep friendship.

The family head, Chen Hongming, recognized the siblings' outstanding talent for taming beasts and specially hired them to serve as managers of the spirit beast garden.

Aside from regularly teaching Qingman and others beast-taming techniques, Yanran had relatively free time and readily agreed.

The Chen family's spirit beast garden is located near the Three Thousand Swords Waterfall in the inner valley.

So Chen Qian went around in circles before finally finding the two siblings here.

At this moment, Yan Fei was tossing the last piece of tempered meat into the air.

The slashing lark, which had been lying in wait on the cliff edge for a long time, suddenly flapped its wings, and its iron-hook-like claws cut through the morning mist, precisely seizing the piece of meat.

"Good!" Yan Ran clapped his hands in praise, and the beast ring on his wrist gleamed faintly.

In an instant, a dark shadow flashed through the forest, and three spotted leopard cubs came running across the grass.

Their golden eyes gleamed in the morning light, and the animal bells around their necks jingled with each step.

One of the leopard cubs suddenly pounced on Chen Qian, but just as it was about to touch the corner of his clothes, it hovered in mid-air.

Chen Qian reacted quickly, pinching the soft flesh behind its neck with two fingers.

"You naughty little devil!" Yan Ran gently pinched the leopard cub's nose, then turned to Chen Qian to explain, "These leopard cubs were only two months old when the mother died in childbirth..."

Before she could finish speaking, the leopard cub grabbed the hem of her skirt and kept pulling her into the woods.

This scene amused Yan Fei, who burst into laughter, his hearty laughter shaking the dew off the grass: "I suppose you've discovered something new and interesting, and you want to take me to see it."

The group walked through the dew-covered bushes, and a secluded pool came into view.

Beside the pool, a three-zhang-long red-scaled python coiled up, its scales shimmering with a blood-red glow in the sunlight.

As the crowd approached, it coiled itself into a circle and looked up at them.

“This python is very intelligent.” Yan Fei gently stroked the python’s scales with his fingertips. “It even helped transport the spiritual plants needed to refine the Spirit Feeding Pill a few days ago.”

Chen Qian accepted the beast meat that Yan Ran offered and fed it to him. The red-scaled python flicked its tongue and gently snatched the food away.

Suddenly, the Rending Wind Lark swooped down, its sharp claws precisely snatching the beast whistle from Yan Fei's waist. After circling three times in the air, it landed steadily back on the cliff edge.

"It wants to have a contest." Yan Ran smiled and took out the beast flute to play softly.

In an instant, the three spotted leopards leaped onto the rocks and formed a hunting formation.

Just as everyone was joking around, a communication talisman flew over.

After Chen Qian finished reading, a smile deepened in his eyes.

"Brother Chen, is there something urgent you need to attend to?" Yan Ran asked while directing the young leopard to retreat and defend.

Upon seeing this, the Rending Wind Cloud Sparrow immediately let out a clear and melodious cry.

Chen Qian shook his head and smiled, "It's a joyous occasion. One of my dear elders has broken through to a higher realm."

Yanran hugged the excited leopard cub and gently stroked it to comfort it: "Brother Chen, go and visit him! We'll get together another day."

Yan Fei also restrained the eager Sky Sparrow and said in a gruff voice, "That's right, Brother Chen, you can go ahead and do your work."

Chen Qian was teasing the leopard cub in Yan Ran's arms when, inadvertently, the back of his finger brushed against Yan Ran's slightly protruding area.

The girl's cheeks flushed crimson, like the sunset on the horizon.

"I'll accompany you to Qingye Mountain in a few days." Chen Qianqiang suppressed his impulse, smiled, and turned to leave.

Although the Yan siblings were temporarily protected by the Chen family and weathered the crisis in Liuyun Mountain Market, old scores would have to be settled sooner or later.

For long-term development, joining the Beast Taming Sect is the best choice, and it will not bury their talents.

The message Chen Qian received was that his seventh uncle, Chen Hongyuan, had finally broken through to the late stage of Qi Refining after more than four months of seclusion!

His family assigned him a new cave dwelling in the inner valley.

After all, he was Chen Qian's closest elder, and would surely be a solid help in the future. Chen Qian followed the winding bluestone path in the valley to the outside of his seventh uncle Chen Hongyuan's new cave dwelling, and gently knocked on the protective barrier.

A deep male voice, imbued with spiritual energy, rang out: "Is that Xiao Qian?"

The stone door slowly opened, and Chen Hongyuan, dressed in a dark blue Taoist robe, stood in front of the stone chamber.

After breaking through his cultivation level, not only did his cultivation improve, but his lifespan also increased, and he looked much younger.

On the table in the stone chamber, the jade bottle had not yet been put away, and the fragrance of elixirs mixed with the residual warmth of the medicine furnace wafted over.

"Seventh Uncle, you're quick on your feet! You've just broken through and you're already refining pills?" Chen Qian smiled as he picked up the jade slip on the table and scanned it with his divine sense. Inside were his insights and experiences in refining pills after his breakthrough.

Chen Hongyuan stroked his beard and laughed, his robe sleeves scattering cinnabar: "The Breakthrough Pill you gave me had a hidden secret, so I've been figuring out how to adjust the proportions of the Qi Nourishing Pill."

Over the years, Chen Hongyuan has been stuck at the peak of the mid-stage of Qi Refining and has had a lot of time to study alchemy.

Unfortunately, his skills were limited, and he was never able to become a permanent alchemist in the family.

"After advancing to the next level, my alchemy skills have indeed improved considerably!"

Chen Qian pushed a decades-old Poria cocos from his storage bag over and joked, "But Seventh Uncle, you're over forty and still single. Now that you've broken through, shouldn't you start thinking about settling down?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Hongyuan's ears instantly turned red: "Don't be ridiculous! What are you talking about, romance, when you're a Qi Refining cultivator..."

Chen Qian's smile deepened. His seventh uncle was a complete straight man who felt extremely uncomfortable around women.

"Seventh Uncle, now that you've broken through to the mid-stage, the family will definitely allow you to leave behind your bloodline," Chen Qian joked. "I reckon the patriarch will be talking to you about this in a few days."

"Mind your own business, kid!" Chen Hongyuan couldn't handle it and simply opened the door to see the guest out.

Chen Qian didn't mind, and laughed as he took his leave.

Back at Lakeview Residence, the four maids were practicing sword formations in the courtyard.

Their figures were graceful, and their swords flashed, creating a scene as vivid as a painting.

Upon seeing Chen Qian's return, they all sheathed their swords and gathered around, eagerly requesting the young master's comments.

The martial arts techniques they learned were all derived with the help of Chen Qian. He had a thorough understanding of the techniques and could get straight to the point with just a few words, which made the maids suddenly understand.

In just a few days, they transformed the Changchun Gong into their own sword techniques, their magical power underwent a transformation, and their sharpness began to emerge.

Although his cultivation level is still only at the first level of Qi Refining, his combat power is now completely different from before.

Inside the waterside pavilion, Yun Xi played the jade flute, its ethereal melody resonating with Chen Qian's innate divine soul.

Chen Qian was secretly delighted. His beloved wife had an exceptional talent for illusion magic, and the Spirit Melody Score was a perfect match for her spirit body.

In the backyard, Momo was engrossed in practicing her swordplay, comprehending the Spirit Rhinoceros Sword Qi, which was suitable for early-stage Qi Refining cultivation within the Spirit Rhinoceros Sword Shadow Technique.

Her skill level is becoming increasingly formidable. With further refinement and tempering of her abilities, advancing to the second level of Qi Refining is just around the corner.

Inside the study, Su Jin was focused on studying the basic secrets of alchemy.

Chen Qian required that the women's cultivation be kept strictly secret, so that if they could refine the necessary pills themselves, they could save themselves a lot of trouble.

Among the women of Lakeview Residence, Su Jin is the strongest, having reached the fourth level of Qi Refining, and she also practices the most powerful fire magic.

Although the transformation of magical power has not yet been completed, the body has become increasingly stronger through the tempering of the cultivation method.

When serving Chen Qian at night, her stamina was noticeably enhanced, and the time they spent together became even more intimate.

Qingman and Ziyao cultivated in the Gray Pearl World.

There are many small animals there, which makes it convenient for them to practice the various secret techniques that come with their martial arts.

Soon after, Chen Qian planned to take the Yan siblings to Qingye Mountain Market.

He planned to have Qingman and Ziyao accompany him, and along the way, he intended to venture deep into Luoxia Mountain to capture a batch of spirit beasts for training.

After all, the Spirit Pet Resonance Contract contains methods for training Dao soldiers, and Chen Qian thought of training a Dao soldier for each of the two women to help them in their future cultivation.

This is an unparalleled method of defeating the strong with the weak, but training Dao soldiers is extremely costly. It seems that I will have to earn more spirit stones in the future.
