Dual Transmigration: American Prison, Surviving to a Fantasy Development Stage

Lu Xian didn't argue, but laughed and said, "When we get to Xiling County, I'll treat my husband to a good drink."

Seeing her confident expression, Lin Feng couldn't resist reaching out and gently flicking the tip of her nose.

"If the Western Spirit Jade Liquid isn't as good as you said, you'll be punished."

"How will you be punished?" Lu Xian'er asked, blinking her eyes.

"Hehehe," Lin Feng laughed.

Lu Xian'er laughed too: "What kind of punishment is this? We couldn't be happier!"

The two burst into laughter, filling the cave with a joyful atmosphere.

After the laughter subsided, Lin Feng couldn't help but ask, "How long is it from here to your Qingyu Palace?"

Lu Xian'er shook her head: "Flying is too slow."

Nanhua County and Xiling County are separated by an endless mountain range.

Using a teleportation array would be much faster.

I remember that there was a teleportation platform in Yucheng of Nanhua County that could take you directly to Xiling County.

However, the cost would be too high.

At this point, her expression became somewhat conflicted.

As a disciple of Qingyu Palace, she naturally knew about the existence of inter-county teleportation arrays, but the journey was long, and she also knew that such teleportation arrays were not something ordinary people could afford to use.

Lin Feng asked in surprise, "How many spirit stones?"

"Because of the long distance, the cost for each person is 30,000 spirit stones each time."

Lu Xian'er held up three fingers and gestured.

Thirty thousand spirit stones is an astronomical figure that is unattainable for the vast majority of cultivators.

Many cultivators work hard their whole lives and still can't accumulate this many spirit stones.

Lin Feng: "Wow, this is so expensive?"

It seems like building a teleportation array is a very promising project.

It's truly a highly profitable business.

Lu Xian'er smiled and said, "It's not expensive, after all, it only takes one activation of the formation."

It would take tens of thousands of spirit stones just to maintain the formation, not even counting the cost of maintaining it.

At the same time, you need both counties to agree to set up the teleportation array, which most forces don't have the capability to do.

Furthermore, unless it's a direct descendant of a powerful faction or a large merchant guild willing to use a teleportation array,

"What ordinary cultivator would be willing to spend so many spirit stones?"

That's how it is in the cultivation world: resources are limited, and the strong are respected.

Lin Feng nodded: "That's true, you get what you pay for."

Thirty thousand spirit stones can save a lot of time.

Lu Xian'er said somewhat shyly, "Husband, I don't have many spirit stones right now."

"Once we return to Qingyu Palace, I will replenish your spirit stones and also give you some rare and precious herbs."

She lowered her head, twisting the hem of her clothes with her fingers, looking somewhat embarrassed.

In her previous life, she was a holy maiden of Qingyu Palace, but she never cared about spirit stones. However, in this life, she is living a somewhat frugal life.

Lin Feng waved his hand: "This amount of spirit stones is nothing, we can still afford to raise them."

Since you've made that decision, let's leave from here and head straight to Yu City.

His tone was indifferent, as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

Sixty thousand spirit stones were really nothing to him.

"Yes, my husband."

Lu Xian'er raised her head, her eyes filled with emotion.

Little did they know, Lin Feng's thinking had already gone astray.

Yucheng?

So, does that mean Yu Lan and Liang Bing are both in Yu City?

Lin Feng remembered that Liang Bing had mentioned that once he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, she would agree to cultivate with him and help him heal her injuries.

Thinking about this, Lin Feng felt a sense of anticipation.

He was also very curious to see how Liang Bing would react if he saw her again.

I wonder if that aloof and arrogant woman would show a surprised expression if she saw my current strength.

He knew Liang Bing's personality well; she was definitely cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

When she made that request, her face was calm, but the shyness and unease deep in her eyes did not escape his notice.

I am now completely different from before. I have made great progress in both my physical body and my spiritual cultivation.

When I see her again, I must tease her properly.

Just then, the shop assistant brought over some spirit wine and a plate of spirit fruit.

The spirit wine was served in a white jade pot, the body of which was carved with exquisite cloud patterns.

"Please enjoy your meal, esteemed gentlemen." The waiter put down the food and respectfully withdrew.

After the waiter left, Lin Feng poured two cups of spirit wine and handed one to Lu Xian'er. "Try it."

The wine poured out of the spout, and a rich aroma instantly filled the air, which was indeed tempting.

Lu Xian'er nodded, picked up her wine glass, and drank it all in one gulp.

She pondered it carefully before saying:

"It's not bad, but the taste and effects are still not as good as Xiling Jade Liquid."

Lin Feng also took a sip, and felt a warm liquid flow down his throat. After entering his stomach, it transformed into a powerful spiritual force that instantly swept through his entire body.

The spiritual energy was gentle and pure: "Although I have never drunk any Western Spirit Jade Liquid, I must say that this spiritual wine is the best I have ever drunk."

One bite and your spiritual energy explodes.

"There are so many good things in this land!"

"My husband is absolutely right. When we get to Qingyu Palace, I will make sure you drink your fill of Xiling Jade Liquid," Lu Xian'er said with a smile.

"Then it's settled." Lin Feng poured himself another cup and slowly savored it.

The two drank and chatted.

Lu Xian'er recounted various interesting stories from Qingyu Palace, such as the competitions among fellow disciples, the strictness of her master, and the local customs and traditions of Xiling County.

When she talked about these past events, her eyes sparkled and a smile played on her lips.

Previously, Lu Xian'er rarely spoke so much.

Upon arriving in Nanhua County, Lu Xian'er seemed to have opened a floodgate of words, unable to stop talking.

Lin Feng listened quietly from the side, occasionally asking a few questions.

After several rounds of drinks, most of the wine in the pot had been gone.

Lu Xian'er's cheeks were slightly flushed, whether from the alcohol or from being shy after saying too many truthful things, it was hard to tell.

Her eyes were veiled with mist, and she looked at Lin Feng with a somewhat dreamy expression.

"My husband..." she called softly.

"Hmm?" Lin Feng put down his wine glass.

"Meeting you is the greatest luck of my life," she suddenly blurted out.

Lin Feng paused for a moment, then laughed: "Why are you suddenly bringing this up?"

"What I'm trying to say is that without you, I wouldn't be who I am today."

She kept her head down, her fingers unconsciously tracing the rim of her wine glass.

"Alright, alright, it's all in the past."

"Um."

Night deepened.

That evening, after taking a bath, the two changed into clean undergarments.

The spirit-gathering array in the cave was operating at full capacity, and the spiritual energy was so dense that it almost condensed into water mist.

However, his cultivation method is somewhat special; he doesn't like meditation and still needs Lu Xian'er's assistance.

Its beauty will not be described here.

The next day, they strolled around Ningcheng and bought a few trinkets that Lu Xian'er had her eye on.

One was eager to return to Qingyu Palace, while the other longed to go to Yucheng; each harbored their own thoughts.

The two did not linger and prepared to head directly to Yucheng.

However, just as they stepped out of the gate of Yunlai Residence and onto the street, a tremendous pressure suddenly descended from the sky.

The oppressive force was like a mountain pressing down or a giant wave crashing onto the shore, making it hard to breathe.

The cultivators on the street all changed their expressions drastically. Some of the lower-level cultivators turned pale, and several Foundation Establishment cultivators even collapsed to the ground.
