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

Chapter 177 Hot Spring Water Smooths and Cleanses the Dust of Travel

Upon hearing the information about the minotaur, Chen Qian couldn't help but gasp.

With a body refinement level above the first tier and the ability to unleash explosive power, he is fearless of soul attacks. Apart from having a somewhat limited range of methods, he is practically a well-rounded warrior.

No wonder Lin Wanshuang said that whenever the two realms meet, the cultivators who participate in the exploration suffer heavy casualties.

Even the most elite Qi Refining Peak cultivators of the Beast Taming Sect would need to have a trump card to be confident in their ability to contend with such an opponent, right?

Moreover, as beastmen, they have been wearing armor in places like the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm, and the monsters in the realm will likely become their allies.

Thinking of this, Chen Qian frowned slightly and said, "To deal with an opponent like this, your sect should have some trump cards up its sleeve, right?"

“Not bad!” Lin Wanshuang nodded.

"In the past, the sect would provide valuable items such as powerful Dao weapons, second-tier talismans, and high-level array plates as assistance."

"The opening of this secret realm involves the foresight of Ancestor Di Ting. Our sect has invited Jade Sword True Monarch of Cangfeng Pavilion to fight against the powerful beastmen. The five major immortal sects have jointly selected personnel to enter, so you don't need to worry about the level of support."

"That's good. As long as the other side can't send in any second-tier orcs, there shouldn't be a big problem."

Even though the minotaurs were powerful, Chen Qian wasn't too worried because he was confident in his own abilities.

I'm just worried about some unexpected situations.

"That's impossible. Large-scale secret realms all have basic rules. The origin of the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm is unknown, but its most powerful rule is to exclude all creatures of the second rank or above from entering."

"Any creature that tries to enter will have its life level detected by the rules."

"When we humans advance to the second tier, we build a foundation for our Dao, while orcs are born with a life core. Even if we seal our cultivation, we cannot escape the detection of the rules."

"To conceal or modify the power of the rules, one must have a cultivation level of the fifth rank."

"If the Minotaur on the other side has a fifth-tier powerhouse, then nothing we do will be of any use."

As the two talked, Zhu Yanhe flew non-stop, the earth rushing past.

The journey is long, and even if one's speed barely reaches the threshold of a True Person in the early stage of Core Formation, it will still take three or four days to arrive.

In order to arrive as quickly as possible, Lin Wanshuang also needed to transfer a lot of her magical power and spiritual power to assist Zhu Yanhe during the flight.

Unless it's a special situation like escaping for your life or searching for the enemy, you still need to rest every day.

So after flying for seven or eight hours, Lin Wanshuang, who was already showing signs of fatigue, found a suitable hilltop to rest.

She fed Zhu Yanhe some food, then put it into her spirit beast pouch and let it rest for a while.

Then I found a quiet place to meditate and regulate my breathing to restore my energy.

Although Chen Qian was not tired, in order to enter the Realm of Destiny, he naturally found a secluded cave and set up an array for cover.

He then activated the Soul Observation and Breath-Searching Mirror to monitor all directions. Only after confirming that no one was spying on him did he leisurely enter the Wheel of Fate.

Xuanzhu Villa.

Instead of going into seclusion to cultivate, practice skills, or manage the spirit fields and medicinal gardens, the women gathered together to relax and enjoy themselves, waiting for Chen Qian's return.

This was quite unexpected for Chen Qian.

He thought that knowing so much about the dangers would put a lot of pressure on the women.

Contrary to expectations, the scene was one of worry and anxiety, but instead, it was a relaxed and pleasant one.

"Why are all the ladies here? Is there some great joy that I don't know about?"

Chen Qian walked over, took the little Lingxi from Momo's hand, and gave his little wife a kiss.

"Pfft~"

Feng Momo's happiness was evident. She playfully punched her brother Qian with her little fist and said, "Isn't it a wonderful thing that our whole family is together and doesn't have to be separated?"

“That’s not wrong,” Chen Qian said with a smile as he teased Xiao Lingxi.

“Husband, the sisters are so happy because, firstly, the spiritual veins of the Destiny Wheel Realm have been upgraded, making our living conditions even more comfortable,” Chen Yunxi said.

"Secondly, and most importantly, the Wheel of Fate is our root."

"As long as the family is safe, we don't want to run businesses or manage affairs outside. We prefer to cultivate ourselves here and build this place up well."

“We feel more at ease here, knowing that our husbands are right beside us.”

"Promise me, my brother Chen Qian, that you will take us with you wherever you go in the future."

Chen Qian never expected that his impromptu decision would make all the women so happy.

He took Chen Yunxi's hand and solemnly said, "Okay, I agree. I'll take you all with me from now on."

Indeed, he had the means to bring his wives, concubines, and children with him, and his family would not have needed to be separated.

The Chen family will get better and better as long as he provides more support in the future, without his women needing to intervene.

Of course, he put the women in charge of Qianlong Mountain for their own training and also to make their lives more colorful.

Although Qianlong Mountain is nice, if any crisis or turmoil occurs in the outside world, it is nothing more than an enclave that can be abandoned at any time.

We must not put the cart before the horse and invest too many resources and energy.

Thinking about it this way, the world suddenly seemed much wider.

Even if an irresistible crisis were to occur in the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm, and the Minotaur Orcs were to emerge and even occupy the entire Li Kingdom.

Then he only needs to gather the people he values ​​into the Wheel of Fate. The world is vast, and there is nowhere he cannot go.
Are we to return to Qianlong Mountain, hold out, and wait to die?
Now, his cultivation is improving every day, and he has also mastered a heaven-defying artifact like the Soul Observation and Breath Finding Mirror.

Unless faced with extreme danger or dire circumstances, it's not an exaggeration to say that one can protect oneself in the small territory of Lebanon.

"Young master, it's my turn and Jixue's turn to help you with your washing and grooming today. Shall we go now?"

At this moment, Fengyin and Jixue came to Chen Qian's side and asked him in a soft voice.

After Chen Qian returned from Bijia Mountain, he went to receive Lin Wanshuang.

Afterwards, he immediately gathered the women and set off for the Beast Taming Sect.

I have been traveling around for several days.

During this period, he traveled extensively, traversed mountains and underground, and subdued the Golden Armored Rock Spirit Beast.

His body was visibly covered in dust.

Even the two loyal maids couldn't stand it anymore.

Chen Qian looked at the stains on his body with a wry smile. He hadn't thought anything was wrong at first, but now he suddenly felt itchy all over.

She quickly handed the little Lingxi back to her mother, laughing, "She's so dirty! I wonder if she's bothered my girl."

The child is still young and can't speak. If he's really affected by his breath, he won't be able to express it.

Little Lingxi is no ordinary child. Although she is only a tiny little girl, she doesn't like to cry or fuss.

Xiao Yi'an already shows signs of precocity, while Xiao Lingxi is even more like a big child than her older brother.

But Chen Qian didn't feel particularly happy.

Being his child doesn't require being so precocious.

When you're little, you can run around and play freely, enjoying a happy childhood.

Of course, Xiao Yi'an is only a few months old now, and Xiao Lingxi still needs to be held in her arms at all times.

It's far too early to settle on a personality.

However, the two little ones are indeed relatively quiet and easy to take care of.

“My daughter wouldn’t be that spoiled.”

Feng Momo gently patted her daughter down and said softly, "Go on, Brother Qian, it's time to change your clothes."

Since Qingman and Ziyao became pregnant, the task of serving Chen Qian's washing and bathing has been taken over by his four personal maids.

The four women were divided into two shifts to serve Chen Qian, and he had long since overcome his initial discomfort.

Now, I feel uncomfortable if no one serves me.

If conditions didn't allow for it, he would simply use a few cleansing spells to finish the job.

……

……

Xuanzhu Villa is built in a very spacious and elegant manner, which is also a characteristic of the architecture in this world.

Apart from a few central locations of spiritual veins, where land is incredibly valuable, other places are not worth much.

Buildings are designed to be spacious and comfortable, because this is something that cultivators can easily do with a little effort.

Back on Earth, Chen Qian loved soaking in hot springs, so he specially built a large pool in his villa as a bathing place.

The bathing pool is hidden among bamboo and peach groves, with a winding path paved with bluestone passing through the courtyard, leading to a semi-open-air warm pool.

The pool walls are made of warm, white chalcedony, with a subtle shimmering light flowing between the stone patterns, and they feel warm to the touch.

Several naturally shaped, dark-colored rocks stand scattered around the pond, with a few purple-stemmed orchids sprouting from the cracks in the rocks, carrying a delicate fragrance in the breeze.

A faint white mist rose from the pool, caused by the fusion of the underground spiritual spring and the specially prepared spiritual liquid.

On the water's surface, a few fresh peach petals occasionally drift down, creating ripples in circles.

Beside the pond, there was a low ebony couch covered with a soft fox fur, and on a low table next to it, a celadon incense burner was burning, the wisps of smoke spreading a calming fragrance.

The fragrance mingled with the crisp scent of bamboo and peach, permeating the entire courtyard.

Chen Qian agreed to come and take a bath, and Fengyin and Jixue immediately prepared everything.

Seeing Chen Qian approach, Ji Xue stepped forward and gently helped him take off his clothes, her movements as soft as a breeze brushing against flower petals.

Fengyin activated the magic array at the bottom of the pool, causing the scalding hot spiritual spring water to flow into the pool more quickly—Chen Qian preferred the water temperature to be even higher.

Otherwise, with his second-tier physique, he wouldn't even be able to stimulate and mobilize his qi and blood.

A thicker white mist suddenly rose from the water, making the poolside appear ethereal, like a fairyland.

Chen Qian took off his clothes and immersed himself in the pool. The warm water enveloped his body, and he breathed out a comfortable sigh.

The pool was filled with steam, and the warmth seeped into Chen Qian's limbs and bones through his pores, making the flow of magical power in his meridians smoother.

The two women blushed slightly, smiled at each other, removed their plain-colored dresses, and quietly stepped into the pool.

"Young master, you've been traveling hard these past few days. Today, I've added calming herbs and warming elixir to this pool. Do you feel any more comfortable?"

Ji Xue's voice was as gentle as a spring as she came up behind Chen Qian and gently helped him wash his back.

The soft breath brushed against the back of his ear, making Chen Qian feel a tingling sensation.

"Yes, there are indeed some differences."

"Young master, is the water temperature alright?"

Fengyin also came to Chen Qian's side, her jade fingers tracing across his arm, lifting his large hand and placing it on her left shoulder, and began to busy herself.

Chen Qian squinted his eyes, listening to the soft rustling sounds in the courtyard. His mood seemed to be transported to another time and space, and he felt extremely relaxed and carefree.

The slight fatigue from days of travel was instantly carried away by the mist.

"The temperature is just right, thank you for your hard work, Xiaoyin."

Feng Yin was usually a man of few words, but upon hearing her young master's praise, her ears secretly flushed slightly.

“It’s my duty as a maid, it’s not hard work,” she murmured.

After soaking for a few quarters of an hour, Chen Qian got up and left the pool. Ji Xue had already brought a soft towel and was waiting by his side, and she quickly helped him carefully wipe away the water droplets.

After wiping himself dry, Chen Qian lay prone on the ebony low couch.

"Master, wait a moment."

Fengyin took a jade box containing freshly ground perfume. She rubbed a little into her palm, sat on the edge of the low couch, and gently massaged Chen Qian's back.

"This is made by simmering moonflower and snow ginseng. It can invigorate blood circulation and promote physical fitness."

Her fingertips were slightly cool, and when they touched the warm skin, they brought a tingling, itchy sensation.

After spreading the balm, I channeled my magical power and began to press and push with increasing force.

"How does the force feel to you, young master?"

Now, all four maids have reached the mid-stage of Qi Refining and have also practiced the Ice Skin Jade Bone Technique.

Even among mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators, her strength was considerable, but she still lacked the strength to completely loosen Chen Qian's muscles and tendons.

"Hehe, not bad. My body is too stiff, so you can just treat it as a chance to practice body-refining techniques."

After a short while, Fengyin became breathless, and Jixue quickly stepped forward to replace her friend.

And so, the two women took turns, maintaining a continuous and intense kneading motion, until Chen Qian finally felt something.

The courtyard was quiet and peaceful, with only the soft breathing of the two women.

Chen Qian relaxed and felt so comfortable that he was almost drowsy.

The incense smoke from the nearby incense burner swirled upwards, mingling with the white mist in the pool, making it impossible to distinguish between the smoke and the mist.

After the massage, Chen Qian got up and had Ji Xue comb his long hair with a jade comb, while Feng Yin brought him some dry and clean clothes to help him put them on.

The light fell on Chen Qian's majestic body, which looked as if it had been carved by a knife and axe, outlining its deep contours, making both girls unable to look away.

The mist in the pool gradually thinned, and the incense sticks in the burner were about to burn out.

Looking at the two attentive and considerate maids in front of him, Chen Qian felt completely relaxed and chuckled softly, "It's so good to have you two here."

Upon hearing this, Fengyin and Jixue felt their fatigue vanish and their mood brighten considerably.

They all returned a sweet smile to their young master.

……

……

……

Several hours of rest passed in a flash, and Chen Qian had to leave early.

We can't just wait for Lin Wanshuang to come looking for us.

However, before leaving the boundary, Chen Qian took a trip to the small valley where the Golden Armor Rock Soul Beast lived and petted the little beast, which had already adapted to the new environment.

The golden-armored beast was also very affectionate towards him.

Chen Qian also discovered that as long as a demon beast entered the Wheel of Fate, it would automatically become his pet beast.

Although there was no contract and he couldn't control the creature with his soul, he could still command it as easily as if it were his own arm through actions, glances, and words.

After playing around with it for a while, Chen Qian arranged a fate-altering package for it—integrating a wisp of Xuanhuang Qi.

Chen Qian had gone through the integration process many times and was extremely proficient at it.

The process was uneventful and completed smoothly.

Seeing the little beast, which already possessed a Heavenly-level bloodline, begin to fall into a deep sleep and evolve, Chen Qian nodded in satisfaction.

As the master of the Wheel of Fate, Chen Qian was pleasantly surprised to discover that the golden-armored beast actually contained a trace of the bloodline of the True Spirit Zouwu beast.

Now, it has been activated by the primordial energy.

Although it is scarce, as long as it exists, it can be cultivated and grown step by step in the future.

He also left behind some blood and flesh from a top-tier second-order demon beast, as well as a few pieces of second-order metal and earth elemental materials, waiting for the little beast to awaken so it would naturally know how to use them.

Although this little beast is only at the early stage of the second tier, it is still a strange beast with sufficient spirituality, comparable to a five or six-year-old child.

Training and commanding them in the future shouldn't be too difficult.

After everything was settled, he finally left the Wheel of Fate.
