Chapter 35 : Will Brother Ye Xuan Disdain Me?
On Mount Taihua, at Qingyan Peak, Ye Xuan was quietly soaking in the spiritual spring. At this moment, everything before his eyes seemed so different. Previously without spiritual roots, the world appeared to him not much different from Earth, with only cultural distinctions.
Now, possessing immortal spiritual roots, though hidden and invisible to others, the power of these roots was beyond ordinary imagination. To Ye Xuan, the world around him was filled with spiritual energy. The endless Qingling Qi didn’t even require active absorption; it naturally approached and lingered around him.
“…” Unfortunately, Ye Xuan had not yet learned the true Taihua Heart Method. Otherwise, he could have started cultivating right then. It was a pity that due to his fear of pain, he chose to forego sensation in the script world, focusing solely on acting without feeling any hurt.
Any injuries felt like merely losing a bit of health in a game, without real impact. Conversely, the benefits he gained in the script world, like life experiences, became fleeting. Such was the nature of gain and loss.
While Ye Xuan was soaking in the spring, Yu Ling’er suddenly called out from outside, “Brother Ye Xuan, practicing the Taihua Heart Method while soaking in the spiritual spring is beneficial… Although you haven’t learned it yet, I will recite the Taihua Heart Method for you. It will be good for you, so listen carefully.”
“…” Hearing Yu Ling’er being so sensible, Ye Xuan didn’t say much, but his ears perked up. The chance to finally come into contact with a cultivation technique excited him.
As Yu Ling’er began reciting, “Close your eyes and focus, hold firm and calm the spirit, embrace Kunlun in the thirty-six chapters, the four directions resonate with the sound of the heavenly drum…”
This Taihua Heart Method was completely foreign to Ye Xuan, a transmigrator. He shouldn’t have understood any of it. However, as Yu Ling’er recited, the unfamiliar phrases transformed into visible actions in his mind.
His immortal spiritual root began to operate automatically, absorbing spiritual Qi at an increasing rate. Soon, his body seemed to turn into a vortex of spiritual Qi, rapidly drawing in surrounding spiritual Qi, creating a visible storm of around him.
“… Diligently and continuously, all returns to dust… Qi fills the spirit rainbow, the flying star never falls… Huh—” After reciting the entire Taihua Heart Method, which consists of 3,000 words, Yu Ling’er took a deep breath.
She then said to Ye Xuan, “Brother Ye Xuan, it’s not easy to grasp cultivation initially. Understanding the Dao can take months, let alone mastering it. So it’s okay if you don’t understand right now. I’ll keep reciting it for you, and over time, you’ll naturally get it… Eh?… This is… spiritual power wind…”
Suddenly, Yu Ling’er sensed something amiss. She felt the powerful spiritual power wind, a sensation only present when someone was rapidly absorbing the Qi of heaven and earth.
Could Ye Xuan be absorbing spiritual Qi? That seemed impossible. Even someone like her, with better spiritual roots, couldn’t absorb Qi this fast. How could Ye Xuan, who lacked spiritual roots, do so? It defied belief.
“Brother Ye Xuan, what’s happening to you—?!!” Alarmed and unsure of the situation, Yu Ling’er hurriedly turned towards the spring. Upon seeing the scene, she was astounded. There sat Ye Xuan, meditating in the spring, with dense Qi swirling rapidly into him, emitting a visible spiritual light.
“Drawing Qi into the body, entering the Qi Gathering Realm—!!!” At this moment, Yu Ling’er was completely stunned. It was utterly impossible – even those with the best spiritual roots couldn’t just listen to the Taihua Heart Method and instantly achieve Qi Gathering. Yet, the reality unfolding before her eyes was undeniable.
Ye Xuan had actually entered Qi Gathering, and the speed at which he did so was astoundingly fast. Even with her Heavenly Spirit Root, Yu Ling’er found that her speed of Qi gathering paled in comparison to Ye Xuan. This was inconceivable.
“Ye Xuan brother… you don’t have a spiritual root, do you?!!” Yu Ling’er stared at the scene before her, unable to believe what she was seeing.
She knew the future events, and even when Ye Xuan died at her hands, he never truly succeeded in cultivation. His power was always derived from the inner demon. But now, Ye Xuan exhibited such a terrifying speed of cultivation…
At this moment, however, Yu Ling’er couldn’t ponder why Ye Xuan had such an alarming rate of cultivation. The fact that he had entered a state of cultivation and successfully initiated Qi Gathering after she recited the Taihua Heart Method was not the main point. The main issue was…
Ye Xuan had removed his Taoist robe and was soaking in the spiritual spring.
“Ah—!!!!” Yu Ling’er let out a scream, quickly covering her mouth, her face flushing as she gazed ahead. Ye Xuan brother looked unexpectedly handsome after entering Qi Gathering. No, it was his astonishingly rapid progression to the Qi Gathering Realm that seemed like a miracle.
As Yu Ling’er was dazedly observing Ye Xuan, he slowly opened his eyes. Feeling his body had reached its limit from the rapid absorption of Qi, he knew he couldn’t continue without harming himself. Then he saw Yu Ling’er staring at him, her cheeks crimson.
Realizing the situation, Ye Xuan looked down at himself and then back at Yu Ling’er, understanding dawning on him.
“Uh…” Seeing Ye Xuan’s expression, Yu Ling’er suddenly realized what she was doing. She had been staring at Ye Xuan in the spiritual spring – how shameful! She feared Ye Xuan might misunderstand.
But then she thought, as a girl, it shouldn’t be a problem that she saw Ye Xuan, right? He shouldn’t be angry, right?!! After all, she was just concerned about him. And his look didn’t seem angry at all.
But then, Ye Xuan’s expression turned into one of disdain, “He~tui——!!!” Ye Xuan mimicked spitting.
Yu Ling’er: …
