My path to immortality was smooth sailing.

Chapter 22 A Year in the Blink of an Eye, Foundation Building in a Dream

In this hidden realm, time flies by.

Wei Jing lived in this magnificent Wei Mansion for ten years.

ten years.

Three thousand six hundred days and nights.

In the dreamlike world of mortals, Wei Jing didn't know if there were immortals; in any case, in the past ten years, he had never met any fellow cultivators.

For someone who is fully aware that they are in a dream, these ten years have been both an ordeal and a form of spiritual practice.

……

He broke through to the second level of Qi Refining in six months and attempted to stand up for the first time.

He knew perfectly well that, apart from himself and his spiritual practice, everything in this mortal dream was illusory.

The Wei family are members of the royal family. The father, Wei Lihuang, is the Marquis of Zhenbei, who guards the border and commands an army of 300,000.

Born into such a prestigious family, Wei Jing's life was incredibly smooth. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and could get whatever he wanted with just a word.

Extreme power and wealth are enough to corrupt and destroy everything.

Even Wei Jing sometimes had moments of dazedness.

But he persevered and remained steadfast in his principles.

Two years to reach level three in Qi cultivation, five years to reach level five in Qi cultivation, and seven years to reach level seven in Qi cultivation.

When Wei Jing turned ten, he had already reached the Great Perfection of the Ninth Level of Qi Refining, and was only one step away from the Foundation Establishment Realm.

For those outside the secret realm, their time inside was only a short ten days.

"Alas, time truly flies by, and ten years pass in the blink of an eye." Wei Jing climbed the high tower alone, looking down at the hustle and bustle of the city below.

"Young Prince, it's getting cold, please go back inside!" A maid slowly walked forward and draped a mink coat over Wei Jing's shoulders.

In November, the weather was chilly and cold. Snowflakes fell from the sky and landed on Wei Jing's rosy little face, melting instantly into water.

However, Wei Jing did not feel cold. With his Qi Refining Perfection cultivation, his body was brimming with spiritual power, so how could he possibly feel cold!

Wei Jing didn't offer any further explanation or pay any attention to anyone. He put on his coat, went back to his room, and began cultivating on his own.

Wei Jing was different from ordinary children. He did not act spoiled or play with his parents, he did not have a childlike heart, he did not cry or make a fuss.

He always isolates himself in his room, and doesn't get close to even his own parents.

There were no more spoiled brats like those from ordinary aristocratic families.

As a result, over the past ten years, rumors have circulated in the Wei family that the young prince is a strange and eccentric individual.

Of course, these rumors circulate privately, and no one dares to discuss them openly.

Wei Jing was aware of this, but he didn't care at all.

Lady Wei was furious about this and ordered a thorough investigation, which calmed the rumors down.

"But this isn't a good solution either!" Lady Wei was deeply troubled by this, wondering why she had given birth to such a strange child.

Lady Wei's worries lessened considerably when Wei Jing was eight years old.

Because in that year, Lady Wei gave birth to another son.

……

Another year passed, and Wei Jing turned eleven.

He decided to go into seclusion, and set up some minor spells in his room, and ordered that no one was allowed to approach his room.

"Eleven years have passed; it's time to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage." Wei Jing's gaze was deep and thoughtful.

After eleven years of cultivation, his understanding and knowledge of the Yi Wood Evergreen Technique have deepened, and he is very confident in achieving a breakthrough in his cultivation.

"I wonder if my destiny is still of any use in this dream world?" Wei Jing muttered to himself.

However, his cultivation went quite smoothly over the past ten years, without encountering any bottlenecks. Therefore, he speculated that his destiny of having no bottlenecks in cultivation must have played a role.

"In that case, everything is ready."

"Go into seclusion!"

After speaking, Wei Jing sat cross-legged, his body radiating invisible spiritual energy fluctuations, his aura terrifying.

Meanwhile, only eleven days had passed in the outside world.

Elder Honggu looked calmly at Wei Long and Wei Jing.

"Hong Gu, do you think any of the three of us from our two families can see through the illusions of the mortal world and find our own destiny?" Feng Yuting walked over slowly and stood side by side with Elder Hong Gu.

"Alas, it's difficult!" Hong Gu sighed.

"It's difficult, but there's still hope, isn't there?"

Feng Yuting's gaze swept over her niece, then looked at Wei Long. At this moment, one of them looked like he was struggling and had encountered some kind of calamity, while the other was very angry and furious.

"But Wei Jing remained calm throughout, showing no signs of sleep at all," Feng Yuting remarked, quite surprised.

You must understand that one day in the outside world is equivalent to one year in the secret realm. What they experience in the secret realm is an extremely realistic dream, feeling the greed, anger, love, hate and the seven emotions and six desires of mortal life. How could they not have emotional fluctuations!

Even the others experienced extremely frequent emotional fluctuations. For example, Lu Zhixuan from the Mozhu Lu family could display a range of emotions on his face in just a few minutes.

"I find that strange too!" Elder Hong Gu frowned, equally puzzled.

Why did Wei Jing's expression remain so calm?

"Hmph, who knows if he's a mentally challenged person in the dream world of mortals."

"Ha ha!"

Hong Gu and Feng Yuting turned to look, and as expected, the newcomer was Lin Muxue from the Lin family.

In his youth, he had a dispute with Elder Hong Gu over who he would become a Daoist partner.

"Lin Muxue, why should the grudges between us damage the relationship between our two families?" Elder Hong Gu frowned.

"I speak for myself."

"Fine!" Elder Honggu laughed in anger.

"Since that's the case, let's take this opportunity to settle all the grudges from back then. Let's find a place to have a duel, and the loser will kneel down and apologize."

"Just what I wanted." Lin Muxue said in a chilling tone.

Feng Yuting watched from the sidelines speechlessly. Although the Feng family had an excellent relationship with the Wei family, they also had a good relationship with the Lin family.

At this point, she could only stand by and watch, remaining neutral.

The two flew away to find a place to fight.

Feng Yuting said she would not get involved in their dispute and found a shady spot to continue watching the scene in the waterfall.

"This kid is really strange." Feng Yuting's gaze fell on Wei Jing. Through the past few days of getting to know him, she naturally recognized him.

"Hehe, Wei Long and Wei Jing just happen to be the two people I chose for my baby when I went to their house to select a husband. This shows that the Wei family did not deceive me and recommended their two most outstanding talents to me."

However, in the end, she chose Wei Long, who had better talent and a better background.

"I hope I didn't make the wrong choice!" Feng Yuting muttered to herself.

If both of them see through the illusions of the world and gain an opportunity, that would be fine. But if only Wei Jing gains an opportunity, then it would be a bit unpleasant.

Isn't this a slap in the face for her?

"Wei Long, I hope you can live up to expectations!" Feng Yuting sighed softly.

The midday sun was scorching hot, and they waited until evening without seeing Hong Gu and Lin Muxue return.

"Those two have been fighting for decades, they're still fighting to the death. How handsome must that scoundrel be!" Feng Yuting got up and stretched.

Suddenly, something strange came from the waterfall scene.

This immediately alarmed the surrounding families and Qingfu Sect cultivators. Even Elder Yang Qingxuan, the elder of the Qingfu Sect's Transmission Hall, was so shocked that he flew into the sky.

Suddenly, a dazzling golden light burst forth from Wei Jing's head in the secret realm, illuminating his entire body.

"An unusual phenomenon? Wei Jing triggered an unusual phenomenon?"

"How is this possible?" Feng Yuting muttered to herself in a daze.
