Immortality System: Cultivating with Girls

"Another training session?"

Wen Zhixing was taken aback and immediately frowned.

He had just returned from training in the Devil Sealing Cave not long ago; how could he be expected to go on another training session so soon?

"Yes, this time it's an external training session. Although your cultivation level is a bit low, it's still good for you to go out and broaden your horizons," Bai Luqiu said with a smile, seemingly unaffected by everything that had just happened.

"Can I choose not to go?" Wen Zhixing asked after a moment of thought.

He just wanted to cultivate peacefully here.

With a bit more cultivation, he should be able to step into the Visualization Realm.

He didn't need training now; such things could wait until he was stronger.

Liu Qingdai snorted upon hearing his words, crossing her arms and puffing her cheeks indignantly. "Go if you like, don't go if you don't."

Then, "As if anyone was begging you to go," she muttered under her breath, feigning indifference even as her eyes stole glances at Wen Zhixing.

"Senior Sister, perhaps next time..." Wen Zhixing pretended he hadn't heard and was about to refuse when Liu Qingdai hurriedly interjected, "This time, we're going to Five Peak County."

"Five Peak County?"

Wen Zhixing felt the name sounded familiar.

Soon, it came to him. Isn't that Wang Shouzhen's hometown? I even promised to meet Wang Shouzhen there. In the end, I stood him up completely. Speaking of which, I feel a bit embarrassed using his name all this time.

"Yes, indeed, Five Peak County. Normally, our sect wouldn't interfere in these mortal affairs; such troubles are usually resolved by the local officials," Bai Luqiu explained further.

"Though the Da Zhou Dynasty has long since crumbled, the local government is still struggling to operate. Our Righteous Sun Sect also sends disciples to stay and train in the mortal world for a period. This time, it was our sect's disciples stationed there who requested aid. They reported that a great demon appeared in Five Peak County a few days ago and has devoured many mortals."

"A great demon?"

Wen Zhixing's expression changed abruptly.

He knew that Wang Shouzhen was not purely of the human race. Could this great demon have something to do with Wang Shouzhen?

"What is the strength of this great demon, that the combined forces of the local officials and the Righteous Sun Sect disciples cannot defeat it?" Wen Zhixing asked gravely.

He had a strong feeling that this great demon might indeed be related to Wang Shouzhen.

However, Bai Luqiu shook her head, saying, "The exact strength of this great demon is currently unknown. Neither the officials nor our Righteous Sun Sect disciples have even seen its true form. Presumably, it's not very powerful. However, the demon arrives unseen and leaves without a trace—it's incredibly fast. That's why they had no choice but to ask for help."

"I understand."

Wen Zhixing nodded.

If that's the case, then I indeed need to make this trip. Naturally, I don't want anything to happen to Wang Shouzhen; after all, I've invested quite a bit in him. If something did, my investment would be for nothing. I'm also eager to meet with him. After so long, he might have come across some more high-level Fortune Fragments. It's time for me to go and 'shear some wool.'

"Then tomorrow, remember to come to the sect gate to meet up," Bai Luqiu said, understanding the unspoken agreement in Wen Zhixing's words—he had decided to go.

"Okay."

Wen Zhixing nodded.

Upon hearing Wen Zhixing's agreement, Liu Qingdai—who had been pretending not to care—visibly relaxed, her expression softening.

"Senior Sisters, take care. I won't see you out," Wen Zhixing said, standing his ground and waving with a light laugh.

"Hmph. Senior Sister, let's go," Liu Qingdai snorted and took Bai Luqiu's hand.

Bai Luqiu blinked her charming eyes as she observed Liu Qingdai's currently proud and somewhat coy demeanor.

Oops. It seems I've hit the nail on the head. My junior sister is likely to have someone on her mind. That could be a bit of a problem. I don't care about others, but I do care deeply about my junior sister. No, I can't let Wen Zhixing spell trouble for Daier. Bai Luqiu secretly resolved. Liu Qingdai is an untouched sheet of paper, while Wen Zhixing has experienced far too much. I can't let him contaminate Liu Qingdai. But I'm fine. I'm not afraid of being tainted. I must protect my junior sister.

At once, a seven-colored auspicious cloud appeared beneath their feet. Just as they were about to depart, Wen Zhixing suddenly seemed to remember something and quickly asked, "By the way, Senior Sister Bai, will there be other people joining us for the training tomorrow?"

"Of course," Bai Luqiu paused, then added, "Your Senior Brother Mu and a few newly promoted inner sect disciples will also be there. This will serve as training for them as well."

"Senior Brother Mu too, huh?" Wen Zhixing's eyes narrowed almost imperceptibly. He smiled and said, "Then this training mission should be foolproof."

"And your Senior Sister Hua will be there too! You must be pleased!" Liu Qingdai popped her head out again and interjected with a cold sneer.

"Hua Yourong?"

Wen Zhixing was taken aback. Hua Yourong is going too?

"Hua Yourong didn't handle her last assignment well. This outing is also considered a chance for her to make amends." Whenever Bai Luqiu spoke of Hua Yourong, her expression turned somewhat peculiar.

She has always felt that Hua Yourong is strange, completely different from how she used to be, yet no issues can be found with her.

Hua Yourong is going too... A sense of unease flashed through Wen Zhixing's mind. He then asked, "Senior Sister, is Master around? I have something I wish to ask him."

"Master?"

Both women were somewhat surprised. Why would he be looking for Master so late at night?

Bai Luqiu shook her head. "Master often appears and disappears unpredictably. He vanished a few days ago; we don't know where he went."

"He's not here?"

Wen Zhixing frowned. What a coincidence.

"Junior Brother, if you have any questions, you can ask me first," Bai Luqiu said, also furrowing her brow. She sensed that Wen Zhixing seemed to have something more he wasn't saying.

"It's nothing. I just had a realization on my own a moment ago," Wen Zhixing said, waving his hand and shaking his head.

"You had a realization?"

They were taken aback once more. What exactly does Wen Zhixing mean?

"Then that's good." In the end, Bai Luqiu gave Wen Zhixing a deep look. His words are too unconvincing. But since Wen Zhixing wasn't elaborating, she couldn't press further.

As soon as Liu Qingdai and Bai Luqiu left, Wen Zhixing's expression gradually darkened.

Hua Yourong... training in Five Peak County... This really is a bit troublesome... I'm not worried about some great demon. It's what Hua Yourong said before that suddenly came to mind. She's going back to the Wonderous Palace. That means, on this external training, Hua Yourong and those four devil generals will also be going out. This is simply a ticking time bomb. Will Hua Yourong make a move against others? Wen Zhixing's brow furrowed. Dammit, it's hard to say. That nutcase Hua Yourong is even mingling with the devil race. Anything is possible from her. I might be fine, since I'm her 'darling', but the others are a different story.

I'll focus on cultivation first. Wen Zhixing took a deep breath. With Liu Qingxuan absent, he didn't have a better plan. All he could do was continue his cultivation.

Once I reach the Visualization Realm, I should be able to resolve the matter of the devil seed once and for all. If Hua Yourong really makes a move, she probably wouldn't kill anyone; she's more likely to use methods like implanting devil seeds. As long as my own mind remains clear, I should be able to find a way to resolve it.

Thinking this, Wen Zhixing returned to his room.

He began to meditate and cultivate.

At this moment, the devil seed within his Sea of Sense was still blustering proudly, as a dark devil shadow began to coalesce from it.

If it weren't for the Nine Heavens Thunder Seed and the Clear Heart Incantation, Wen Zhixing would have been overwhelmed a long time ago.

"Suppress!" Wen Zhixing's eyes narrowed, a hint of delight appearing as his Sea of Sense had once again expanded slightly. This new devil seed is truly excellent.

In the next moment, the Nine Heavens Thunder Seed, which had been solely on the defensive, suddenly quivered its tiny form.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

The entire Sea of Sense grew even more tumultuous as countless bolts of thunder erupted within it, striking the devil seed and producing muffled rumbles.

The devil seed, which had been so arrogant, was suddenly stunned. The slowly forming consciousness shadow immediately retracted back into the devil seed, daring not to emerge again.

However, Wen Zhixing didn't go too far with the suppression, reining it in when it was just enough. This time, I'll shear the wool slowly.

Wen Zhixing was immersed in cultivation.

But the others, this night, each had their own thoughts.

Inside the cave dwelling where Mu Yunqing resided.

"Zhang Tiancheng, for this training session, how about I get you a new body?" Mu Yunqing said with a smile to Zhang Tiancheng, who stood before him with utmost respect.
