Chapter 73 - 73: I Cultivate Immortality in Order to Find a Taoist Couple_l
At the same time.
Liu Siqi strolled through the forest with great confidence.
At first, she was scared of being trapped in such a strange place, but after a few days without encountering any danger, she felt at ease.
It was obvious that the others must not be here, because she hadn’t met anyone.
As for getting out, she believed that her invincible husband would surely figure out a way.
Compared to other dangers, simply being trapped here was really lucky. Not to mention, Liu Siqi also found other delightful things in here.
“Wow! Another Blood Droplet!”
“This Millennium Vine must be at least one thousand five hundred years old. I’m going to be rich!”
“Wahaha! Snow Holy Fruit, snowy white with a bit of yellow, aged for a thousand years, hiss, hiss-
Oh my God, what kind of Holy Land was this!
She found treasures everywhere she went. She would gladly take a dozen such places, thank you very much.
*Sigh*
Feeling tired, Liu Siqi decided to take a break.
She cautiously surveyed her surroundings, then vigilantly set up a barrier before sitting down to rest.
Although it was unlikely to encounter any danger, being cautious was still necessary.
“I wonder how my husband and Senior Sister Lingshuang are doing, ” Liu Siqi sat on a pile of grass with her hands propping her chin, worrying about whether the others would be involved in any danger.
“Hmm.”
Something moved in the corner of her eye.
As a Foundation Building Cultivator, she was able to notice subtle changes happening nearby.
It was a red, coral-like object that was segmented and moved?
Liu Siqi’s expression froze for a moment.
Before she could react, the red coral-like object buried in the grass suddenly jumped out and quickly rushed outward—Bang! The weird coral crashed into the barrier and was bounced back.
It was fast, but apparently not very strong.
Liu Siqi hesitated for a long time, suddenly remembering a sentence Sect Leader once said: “All things in the world have spirits, humans have their way, demons also have their way, even heavenly treasures, given enough time, will give birth to spiritual intelligence. However, once such treasures appear, they will inevitably be fought over by countless people.”
“A true treasure!!
Liu Siqi exclaimed, but seeing the Blood Coral trying to escape, she quickly rushed after it.
Although her speed was slower than that of the Blood Coral, the latter couldn’t escape because of the barrier!
It’s like catching fish in a barrel. Understand?
After half an hour of chasing, Liu Siqi finally took advantage of an opportunity and firmly caught the Blood Coral in her hand.
The latter struggled like an animal in her hand.
Upon closer inspection, Liu Siqi discovered that its blood-red body was bright and had a very clear feeling. The aura it emitted was even refreshing to the soul.
Definitely a treasure!.
Although she couldn’t tell what it was, Liu Siqi knew it was a treasure for sure.
She took out several jade containers from her storage bag, removed the contents of the best one, and carefully placed the Blood Coral inside. She then opened the remaining boxes and rearranged the treasures, finally taking out a ‘useless’ item and casually tossing it into the storage bag.
She patted her storage bag with satisfaction.
“Hehe, my husband will definitely be happy when he sees this treasure.”
When Nangong Xue returned to the barrier, she found that Qin Changqing had already left.
She raised an eyebrow but seeing no signs of a fight around her and that the barrier hadn’t been damaged from the outside, she decided to wait for a while.
As expected, less than an hour later, Qin Changqing returned.
“Where did you go?” Nangong Xue frowned, “Although there’s no danger here, it would be troublesome to get lost and run into the Huntian Sect members.”
Qin Changqing smiled faintly: “I went to break the Array Formation.”Nangong Xue sighed, “Brother, I was just joking with you. There’s no need to take it so seriously.”
She had been searching for a solution for three years without success. What could Qin Changqing, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, possibly
Qin Changqing said, “Actually, I know a thing or two about Array Formations.”
Perhaps attracted by Qin Changqing’s unique temperament, Nangong Xue rarely showed a smile, “Well, Brother, I’m afraid your little knowledge might not even be enough to figure out the number of formation eyes in this Array Formation.” Qin Changqing smiled slightly, “Sister, how about we make a bet then?”
“What’s the bet?”
“If I win, when you want to find a Taoist Couple in the future, consider me!” Nangong Xue thought she had heard him wrong.
A Taoist Couple?
What’s going on?
The sudden topic change left her a little disoriented.
Although Taoist Couples were common in the cultivation world, she had never paid much attention to this term. It was as strange to her as trying to figure out whether two fighting dogs on the street were fighting over food or competing for mating rights.
She had never given it much thought!
Although she did find Qin Changqing to be a decent person among the Xuanyi Peak disciples.
Especially during this reunion, she felt a sense of reassurance from him.
However, as a cultivator, his talent was still too lacking.
Moreover, she had a special identity that made it difficult for her to decide on anything like this.
“Brother, are you… kidding me?”
Seeing her younger sister’s doubtful expression, Qin Changqing suddenly felt a bit sheepish – it was like being stared at by the class teacher! She was watching! She was watching you!
After a full minute of mental preparation, he faced Nangong Xue’s gaze and said solemnly, “Sister, do I look like I’m joking?”
Not joking?
Nangong Xue frowned, “Then why do you want to form a Taoist Couple with
“I want to dual cultivate with you!”
Nangong Xue was dumbstruck.
If it weren’t for the fact that this guy was her Senior Brother, she would have kicked him a long time ago.
What’s wrong with you, Senior Brother?!
It had only been a little over ten years since they last met, and Nangong Xue found that her once gentle and elegant Senior Brother had become so unfamiliar.
What on earth had happened to him in these years?
Nangong Xue was puzzled. Then she noticed that Qin Changqing’s expression was open and his eyes held no hint of lewdness, as if he were talking about something completely natural.
“Brother, you…” Nangong Xue was at a loss for words.
Even though she was usually strong-willed, this time she didn’t know what to say.
Qin Changqing suddenly said, “Sister Nangong, let me ask you, why do you cultivate?”
Nangong Xue averted her gaze, “I have my reasons.”
“To pursue longevity? To attain the immortal path? To become the first person in the North Region to ascend in ten thousand years?
Isn’t that what everyone thinks when they first start cultivating? To become immortal is everyone’s wish.”
“Wrong.”
“What’s wrong?”
Qin Changqing shook his head, “Becoming an immortal is just a desire of people. When you become an immortal, you can live as long as the heavens and earth, and be revered by all. People can’t do something for no reason, and cultivating is no exception. Everyone has an objective: some want to live forever, some want revenge, some want to be invincible in the world… They cultivate because they can gain what they want on this path.”
“As for me, I want to find a Taoist Couple. I cultivate for the sole purpose of finding a Taoist Couple!”
Qin Changqing: I’m an SP, and I’m laying my cards on the table!
Nangong Xue:
How…. shameless!
