Witch, please have some self-respect!
Chapter 2: Washing the Fairy's Feet, Blessing +?
The light screen resembled an unfolded illusory ancient scroll, which we might call the "Retirement Blessing Scroll".
Shen Yun then remembered that today was his sixty-third birthday.
Retirement at sixty-three is quite a blessing.
[Retirement Blessing Scroll: Level Zero]
[Enjoy Blessings: Enjoy life every day; you can earn 5 Blessing Points at Tier 0]
[Health and Wellness: Daily health and wellness activities; 5 wellness points can be earned at level 0]
[Skills and hobbies: Rolling Stone Boxing (100/100 proficiency), Health Preservation Boxing (100/100 proficiency), etc...]
[Blessing Points: 2]
The ancient scroll was very simple, and he intuitively understood how to use it.
Enjoying life and engaging in healthy activities every day will earn you a certain number of blessing points.
Its main focus is on caring for the physical and mental health of retired seniors.
Blessing points can be added to improve skills and hobbies.
Shen Yun only focused on hobbies and skills related to cultivation.
I'm too lazy to look at other things like accounting, cooking, driving, fishing, carving, makeup and disguise.
Can those achieve immortality?
As Shen Yun grew older over the years, his greatest wish was to achieve immortality.
Rolling Stone Fist (Mastery 100/100)
Shen Yun looked on and realized that it was no wonder that "Rolling Stones" hadn't improved over the years.
It turns out that it was stuck at 100 and had reached a bottleneck.
The head guard who taught Shen Yun back then once said: Everyone has a bottleneck, sooner or later.
Those with average natural talent will encounter bottlenecks at every turn.
Shen Yun was one of those with average talent, and he was also older when he started practicing martial arts, so he reached a bottleneck early on.
"Can Blessing Points help me break through the bottleneck in my cultivation technique!?"
Shen Yun was somewhat puzzled.
There's also a health-preserving boxing style, which is an ordinary boxing style practiced by old men and has nothing to do with spiritual cultivation.
I've picked up these exercises over the years to improve my physical health, supposedly to prolong life, but the effectiveness is uncertain.
"Huh!"
Shen Yun suddenly discovered that there was more content on the back of the ancient scroll.
【Part 1: Daily Friendly Communication with Your Retired Partner】
[Exclusive Reward: Based on your partner's intimacy level, you will receive exclusive partner blessing points (10% of intimacy level) through daily emotional interactions.]
[Bonus Reward: Daily Blessing Points are calculated based on partner satisfaction]
Shen Yun realized that binding a partner was very important, as it also brought extra exclusive rewards and bonuses.
Looking at Su Wan'er in front of him, the screen in front of him flickered.
Su Wan'er
【Intimacy Level: 71】
[Host satisfaction rate: 96%]
[Can be linked as a partner]
Without hesitation, Shen Yun bound himself to Su Wan'er.
[A fairy washes your feet, your blessings increase by 1]
Wan'er was still washing his feet, and thus received a little more good fortune.
"What are the uses of exclusive blessing points, and how do I obtain them?" Shen Yun asked, somewhat puzzled.
It was only about eight o'clock, there was still plenty of time. Since it was an exchange, it definitely had to be a back-and-forth exchange to be considered a proper exchange.
Shen Yun and Su Wan'er chatted for a while, but they never managed to complete the emotional exchange.
[...Blessing +1]
The water in the basin had grown a little cool by the time four points of good fortune had been earned.
"Wan'er, take a rest." Shen Yun simply let Su Wan'er sit on the bed to rest.
He carried the wooden basin to empty the water, and then brought in a new basin of hot water.
Su Wan'er thought her husband wanted to wash his feet, so she tried to get up.
But the next moment, Shen Yun sat in her previous seat and rolled up her sleeves.
He looked like he was about to wash her feet.
Su Wan'er froze, clutching the hem of her skirt, and shyly refused.
"Wan'er can do it herself."
My mother always said that a girl's feet should not be touched by just anyone.
However, her husband doesn't seem to be an outsider.
"If Wan'er washes her husband's feet, then of course her husband should wash her feet too."
Shen Yun chuckled and helped her sit down, then lifted her skirt and took her little feet.
Taking off Wan'er's snow-white silk stockings, her small feet came into contact with her hands; they were fair and soft, with five smooth and rounded toes.
She was nervously tucking her hands in, looking incredibly cute with her delicate features.
"Relax!"
Shen Yun gently stroked her feet and washed them, then steered the conversation towards life.
Seeing that her husband was indeed focused on washing his feet and did not do anything strange, Su Wan'er gradually relaxed.
Beauty was meaningless to Shen Yun; he was more interested in completing the ancient scroll mission and accumulating merit points.
Although this "retirement blessing scroll" may not seem impressive, it's still better than his current situation.
Practice, enter the level.
My heart is as hard as iron!
[You wash the fairy's feet, your blessings increase by 1]
???
Shen Yun paused, looking at the fair and tender foot in his hand.
When does washing someone's feet count as enjoying life?
There is a problem with the understanding of this ancient scroll.
Watching her husband carefully wash her feet, she felt a little clumsy and itchy.
But Su Wan'er was very happy.
Shen Yun didn't treat her like a maid; he truly pampered her like a wife.
In this world, there are very few men who would do this for their wives.
I remember my father washing my mother's feet when I was a child.
This interaction allowed her to experience a long-lost sense of relaxation.
Six years have passed, and it seems she's finally finding someone who loves and cherishes her.
[Su Wan'er's intimacy level: 71→82]
Shen Yun looked up and took a serious look at Su Wan'er. This little wife was easily satisfied.
Do you really want to spend your life with this old man?
[Gain 8 Blessing Points Exclusively for Su Wan'er]
Shen Yun's face lit up with joy. The exclusive blessing was given to him all at once, no wonder it was taking so long.
He almost considered trying another method.
However, he didn't stop until the water got a little cold, before reluctantly letting go.
"Wan'er, you rest first. Let me do a set of health-preserving boxing to help with your digestion."
Carrying the wooden basin, Shen Yun left the room with a normal expression.
You can also earn blessing points by engaging in health-preserving activities; failing to complete these daily tasks is a loss.
Once outside the courtyard, Shen Yun first opened the ancient scroll, intending to try using his Blessing Points to improve his Health Preservation Fist.
[Health Preservation Boxing (Mastery 100/100)] + [Health Preservation Boxing (Minor Success 1/1000)]
Immediately, Shen Yun's understanding of health-preserving boxing reached a new level.
Unable to resist, Shen Yun began practicing Xiao Cheng's health-preserving boxing.
After the breakthrough, the movements became even smoother and more fluid than before, and the body felt warm when moving around.
The health-preserving boxing is similar to the Five Animal Frolics and Tai Chi from the previous life. It is not magical and its qi and blood circulation is just average.
Practicing health-preserving boxing won't deplete your body, but of course, don't even think about advancing to a higher level.
[Fitness and health bring +1 blessings]
About five minutes later, after performing half of the health-preserving boxing routine, a notification appeared.
"You get ten minutes to enjoy the blessings, but this exercise adds a little bit every five minutes," Shen Yun laughed.
This is true blessing; I hope he spends more time enjoying himself.
I did the health-preserving boxing once, walked for five minutes, and then did it again.
I managed to break a sweat, and within twenty minutes I had earned five points of good fortune for health and wellness.
"Luckily, I tried the health-preserving boxing style first!"
Shen Yun stopped, feeling thoroughly satisfied.
The insights gained from breaking through bottlenecks are invaluable, leading to exceptional performance.
It was as if he had entered a state of sudden enlightenment.
The "Rolling Stone Fist" training method often involves using stone weights weighing dozens of kilograms for practice, which greatly stimulates blood and energy.
It's more than ten times the strength of health-preserving boxing.
It's fine for young people, but for older people, strenuous exercise can deplete their bodies and make them age faster.
Whether you can advance to the next level after breaking through in "Rolling Stone Fist" is uncertain.
Practicing this could stimulate the circulation of weakened blood and energy within the body, potentially draining an aging body dry.
Moreover, the first practice session after breaking through the bottleneck is very effective.
We can't waste this golden opportunity; I have to take the medication before I start training again.
As you get older, you become more composed.
Before buying the pills, he didn't plan to increase his proficiency in Rolling Stone Fist.
"Use the first round of rolling stone punches after breaking through the bottleneck to awaken the body's vitality."
Shen Yun made up his mind.
I just don't know if this will allow me to advance to the next level.
Cultivation is not about the progress of techniques, but about how techniques refine one's own qi and blood.
However, the deeper the cultivation level, the stronger the effect on tempering one's own qi and blood, and the easier it is to advance to the next level.
【Health Preservation Boxing (Minor Success 3/1000)】
After glancing at the ancient scroll again, Shen Yun noticed that his proficiency in the Health Preservation Fist had increased by two points.
It seems that improving proficiency doesn't solely depend on merit points.
You can also succeed through your own efforts.
The most valuable aspect of Blessing Points is undoubtedly their ability to rapidly improve one's abilities and help break through bottlenecks.
[Su Wan'er's Exclusive Blessing Points 8]
Turning to the back of the ancient scroll, Shen Yun remembered that there were also exclusive blessing points.
I don't know how to do it myself.
Once the thought was ignited, Su Wan'er's skills and hobbies were on full display.
[Purple Thunder Breathing Technique, Cooking, Guqin (a traditional Chinese stringed instrument), Calligraphy, Painting, Needlework, Makeup, Gardening...]
The exclusive blessing points can only increase the skills and hobbies your partner possesses. If your partner has skills that Shen Yun doesn't, you can gradually improve them.
Similar copy!
There were a whole bunch of them, but Shen Yun was immediately drawn to the first one: breathing techniques.
"It's a breathing technique! Wan'er actually knows breathing techniques!"
Shen Yun's breath hitched; he knew all too well the preciousness of breathing techniques.
Breathing techniques are the foundation of this tradition.
In the Feng family, only direct descendants of the Feng family have the opportunity to be taught.
He had been craving it for many years.
Wan'er actually knows breathing techniques, could she have some special background?
Shen Yun recalled Wan'er's background.
Several years ago, one day, the clouds over the entire city of Seeking Immortals were dyed gold—a treasure ship, like a floating giant island, broke through the sky.
The ship has nine stories, like stacked clouds, with each story adorned with a dazzling pavilion.
It was a merchant ship that sold treasures for spiritual practice.
Rumor has it that the goods on it are scattered everywhere and encompass everything. The city lord of the Immortal City and the Blood Sea Ancestor of several major families can only ascend to the second floor.
The treasure ship stayed for only half a day before disappearing into the sky.
At the time, Shen Yun could only watch from afar, and later learned that the treasure ship was named Cangming.
The Azure Netherworld Treasure Ship did not arrive here for trade. How many cultivators are there in a small city like Seeking Immortals? It's not worth the trip.
The main purpose was to free tens of thousands of slaves.
Ten thousand miles away, a great city was breached by savage beasts, and the human race was reduced to food; of the survivors, not one in five remained.
The Azure Sky Treasure Ship happened to pass by, and the savage beasts were intimidated and retreated.
The owner of the treasure ship was kind-hearted and agreed to take the survivors from the city to other places to make a living.
The price was that those people became commodities, sold along the way.
Su Wan'er was one of those tens of thousands of servants. Shen Yun looked towards the bedroom, his eyes flashing.
They have a lineage of breathing techniques, so they are at least on par with the Feng family.
A former young lady from a wealthy family?
They might even be stronger than the Feng family.
If even a large city like that could be destroyed, one can imagine how dangerous this wilderness is.
Humanity is not yet in a position to rule the world.
Su Wan'er's talent was even worse than Shen Yun's; she had a breathing technique but failed to enter the path of cultivation.
Or perhaps she simply didn't dare to practice this technique within the Feng family.
Thinking too much was pointless, so Shen Yun poured all of Su Wan'er's exclusive blessing points into the breathing technique.
[Purple Thunder Breathing Method (Beginner 8/10)]
His mind was jolted, and the obscure incantation was like a thunderous incantation, far surpassing the simple breathing technique of the Rolling Stone Fist.
He turned and went into the woodshed in the courtyard. He sat down cross-legged and took his first long breath. A tingling sensation, as if being licked by electric current, came from the old dragon in his spine.
The blood and qi changed course like a long river, creating waves in the decaying flesh, and every acupoint shimmered with a fine blue light.
His robes suddenly billowed up, and fine blue electricity crackled across his skin like popping beans.
It made quite a commotion, but the power of the lightning was actually weak, much like the silver threads that burst open when someone tears at their clothes on a winter night.
In the past, it was called static electricity.
In fact, static electricity can nourish a withered body with each breath.
After repeating the breathing exercise three times, Shen Yun stopped and touched her empty stomach.
"No matter what method you use, it all depends on the driving force of energy."
I went to the side room, ate some snacks and dried meat, and then drank a big gulp of water.
happy!
As I got older, I had trouble digesting at night, and I often belched and bloated. After practicing breathing techniques, I no longer had those problems.
"The suitable cultivation method is ready, and the elixir is even more urgent."
Under the cover of night, Shen Yun's eyes shone even brighter.
His talent has finally awakened...
Stepping out of the room and gazing at the endless sky, Shen Yun saw the reflection of three moons and countless stars in his eyes.
His withered back suddenly straightened, as if an old pine tree was shaking off its accumulated snow.
Beneath the skin of a sixty-three-year-old, a heat rose—not the heat of ordinary life, but more like the clear, cool flame that rises from the trunk of an old tree struck by lightning.
In his sixties, if an ordinary person called him "old man" or "Old Deng," Shen Yun wouldn't mind.
But if one enters the world of cultivation, it is the prime of life.
This is the Venerable Ancestor Shen Yun!
