I've already become an immortal lord, and only now is the spiritual energy reviving?

Chapter 101 Birthday Banquet, Stepping into the Immortal Realm!

It's 6 PM.

The rooftop terrace of No. 3 Bund.

A gentle breeze blows across the river, and the lights of the Oriental Pearl Tower are reflected in the Huangpu River, creating a dazzling spectacle.

The entire terrace was booked out and decorated in a stylish yet festive and warm manner.

Aunt Shen Yumei, wearing a newly bought silk cheongsam, was holding Uncle's hand and pointing to the tall buildings across the street: "Old man, look! This is Shanghai! These lights, these buildings... Our Xiaoyuan works in a place like this, he's made something of himself!"

My uncle chuckled and nodded repeatedly.

Lu Zhaoheng acted like a dutiful lobby manager, running around adjusting the sound system and instructing the waiters on how quickly to serve the food.

Upon seeing Qingyuan, his eyes lit up, and he rushed over, exclaiming, "Brother! You're here! Are you satisfied with the land?"

"Great job, thank you for your hard work."

Qingyuan patted him on the shoulder, his eyes searching through the crowd.

When my colleagues arrived, they gathered together and marveled at the environment.

Aunt Liang was also there, chatting enthusiastically with Second Aunt.

Suddenly, the elevator doors opened.

"Da, da."

The sound of high heels clicking on the marble floor was crisp and pleasant.

Lu Zhaolin walked in.

She changed her clothes.

A dark green velvet dress made her skin look even whiter than snow.

A piece of warm, ancient jade hung around her neck, simple yet elegant.

In his hand, he was carrying the gift box that Qingyuan had already seen.

She walked straight towards Qingyuan without looking to the side.

At the same time.

Gu Wanyin came running up the stairs on the other side, panting.

His hair was slightly disheveled, and fine beads of sweat appeared on the tip of his nose.

But when she saw Qingyuan, her eyes instantly lit up.

"Brother Qingyuan!"

She walked briskly towards us, carrying a carefully wrapped bag in her arms.

Two figures.

A cold and elegant beauty, like a blooming black rose.

A pure and lovely girl, like a small white flower glistening with dew.

They stood in front of Qingyuan almost simultaneously, one on the left and one on the right.

Lu Zhaolin glanced at Gu Wanyin's slightly disheveled hair and the bag that clearly showed signs of being handmade.

His eyes flickered slightly.

"Secretary Gu, why are you in such a hurry?"

"Business is important, but we also need to pay attention to our image."

Gu Wanyin was taken aback by what she said, and subconsciously wanted to fix her hair, feeling a little nervous.

But when she saw Qingyuan's encouraging smile...

My back straightened up a bit for no apparent reason.

"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Lu."

Gu Wanyin raised her head, her face still a little red, but her voice was clear: "I've finished all my work, it's time to get off work now."

"I'm here to celebrate Qingyuan's birthday as a friend, not as his company secretary."

As she spoke, she handed over the bag with both hands, looking directly at Qingyuan: "Happy birthday, Qingyuan!"

"This is something I made myself. It's not expensive, but I spent a long time choosing the style."

Qingyuan smiled and accepted it, opening it in front of everyone.

A gray cashmere scarf with fine stitches, soft and warm to the touch.

At the end of the scarf, there was also a crooked but cute little dog pattern embroidered.

That's Qingyuan's zodiac sign.

"Thank you, I like it very much, it will be perfect for winter."

Qingyuan casually gestured with his hand across his neck.

Gu Wanyin's face turned even redder, but she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.

next to.

Lu Zhaolin was not angry because he was "talked back to".

She simply raised an eyebrow and handed over the box.

"Happy birthday."

"A small token of my appreciation; jade is good for health and can also ward off misfortune."

I hope you will always be safe and sound.

She didn't say much, but every word she spoke was like a drumbeat.

The phrase "to ward off disaster" carries a deeper meaning.

Qingyuan accepted the gift with equal solemnity: "Thank you, President Lu. This gift is too precious; I will cherish it."

Around them, Lu Zhaoheng and Liu Cheng held their breath, their eyes darting back and forth between the three, their faces showing the excitement of onlookers.

Brother Qing, you're awesome!

Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly delicate.

Shen Yumei squeezed in at some point, pulling Lu Zhaolin with her left hand and Gu Wanyin with her right: "Oh! Everyone's here! It's good that everyone's here!"

"Don't just stand there! All the dishes are served! Hurry up and take a seat!"

"Let's not hold back tonight, let's give Xiao Yuan a good time!"

With the intrusion of an elder, the tense atmosphere dissipated.

Everyone took their seats.

During the meal, people toasted and exchanged drinks.

Lu Zhaoheng somehow managed to get a band to perform live.

When cutting the cake.

Qingyuan was surrounded by the crowd in the middle.

He closed his eyes and clasped his hands together.

Make a wish.

In my mind, I didn't think about promotions and raises, nor about being invincible.

Instead, all around me are genuine, vibrant smiling faces.

Aunt's loud voice, the colleagues' commotion, Lu Zhaoheng's antics, and... two gentle gazes from beside him.

The stone egg inside its body let out a final, satisfied sigh.

"Perfect."

It is a kind of fulfillment that is truly integrated into the world, recognized by the world, and accepted by oneself.

The candle was blown out.

Cheers erupted.

The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves immensely that night.

The banquet ended.

Qingyuan politely declined Lu Zhaoheng's offer to drive him home and drove slowly back by himself.

The carriage was very quiet.

There was a gray scarf and a dark green jade pendant on the passenger seat.

Outside the car window, the city streetlights receded one by one, like the passing of time.

Back home, Qingyuan sat on the bed and murmured softly.

"That's about it."

in vivo.

The stone pebbles completely completed the last trace called "fireworks".

"bring it on."

Close your eyes and let your mind sink into your dantian.

The thought transforms into a hammer, gently tapping the eggshell.

"Click"

A crisp, cracking sound not only resounded through his dantian but also exploded deep within his soul.

Golden light burst forth.

Streams of spiritual energy, so vast they were unimaginable, appeared out of thin air!

It is not something that is forcibly plundered from the depleted spiritual energy of the outside world.

Instead... it's self-produced and self-sold!

This stone egg itself is a source of spiritual energy!

The Qi Sea surged, opening up the heavens and the earth.

Qingyuan "saw" a scene he would never forget.

The scene he had once witnessed in "Observing the Mysterious Female and Directly Proving the Primordial Nature" was now being replayed within his body.

This time, however, there was no tragic collapse, nor any bleak chaos.

The wisps of incense smoke accumulated over the years transformed into warm, thick golden-red clouds, stabilizing this newly born world.

The sky is clear, but the earth is murky.

The sun, moon, and stars evolved, and mountains and rivers took shape.

And right in the center of this little world.

A purest and most dazzling aroma of incense slowly condensed.

It is shaping, along a predetermined trajectory.

Start from the feet, and gradually build and sculpt upwards.

Legs, torso, arms...

Finally, there's a face.

A face identical to Qingyuan's, yet exuding a sacred and solemn aura!

That's his idol.

It was the "true form" he established for himself within this world inside his body!

"boom!"

The moment the statue opened its eyes.

The major forces of destiny in the outside world seem to have finally found their home.

Shu Yan's "Plain Lapel Reflecting the River" disappeared into the easternmost part of the world, transforming into a towering pillar.

At the top of the pillar, a white ape wearing a golden headband sits cross-legged with its eyes closed, with the mighty river flowing behind it and the cold moon shining down.

Chai Wu's "Bearing the Mountain and Guarding the Pass" sank into the northern frontier, creating the majestic Mount Sumeru Mountains that stretch for thousands of miles, with the towering Heavenly Pass guarding the nation's gate.

Ou Yeheng's "Embrace Simplicity and Forge Truth" fell into the Southern Region, forming a huge furnace spewing endless earth fire.

Every breath forges the weapons and rules of the world.

Xu Sixing's "Cut Thunder and Wash Edge" ascended to the Western Heaven and condensed into a vast thunder pool.

Purple lightning and azure frost transformed into a forest of swords, hanging in the sky, dominating slaughter and judgment!

With the four elements in their proper places, heaven and earth are complete.

The central statue sits high in the clouds, overlooking this world that belongs only to him.

in reality.

The computer screen automatically turned on.

A line of gold text popped up, standing out starkly in the dark room:

Congratulations! The two bridges to heaven and earth are now open, and the inner world has been opened to the world!

[It has already embodied the full power of its destiny!]

When I opened my eyes, it seemed as if a river of stars was flowing, and a flash of golden light disappeared in an instant.

He looked down at his hands.

"Qi cultivation?"

"Foundation Building?"

"According to the terminology of the cultivation world, I now have a self-generated source of energy within my body, which can be considered as Qi cultivation."

"But I also have the inner world of the Foundation Establishment stage, which is gradually being perfected."

"What's this?"

Qingyuan stood up, clenched his fist in the void, and felt the endless spiritual power flowing within his body.

"But who cares about any level?"

Anyway...

""

"I, your ancestor, have a clear conscience!"
