Hubby, Your Fox Fairy Wants Everything
Chapter 8 Soul Cultivation (Part 1)
Chapter 8 Soul Cultivation (Part 1)
Qin Lengyue loved Xiao Qi, but she might be utterly destroyed by this love. Men like Xiao Qi look gentle and elegant who do not care for many. Wuyou, however, hoped that Xiao Qi could accomplish great things. Only when he did this would he become accomplished. She had once been naive and that had caused the people of Teal Hill to all die. It was only when her soul had scattered, did she know that she could only depend on herself if she wanted to survive. Even though her soul was staying in Qin Lengyue’s body, could this mortal constrain it well?
Wuyou passed through the yard and stretched out her fingers. The sunlight streamed down through between her fingers. In the bamboo forest, Xiao Qi sat on the ground. Wuyou stood by the side respectfully. Wuyou did not feel anything for a master like Xiao Qi. The woman’s calmness shocked Xiao Qi. When Wuyou saw Xiao Qi sizing her up, she stood even straighter. Time passed, and by the time Xiao Qi finished talking about sect rules, it was already noon.
“Mentor, Lengyue has understood the sect rules.”
“Have you remembered the foundation of souls?”
Was it possible for a weak girl like her to become a Soul Sage? He had cultivated in spirits for 500 years and was not yet a Soul Master. If one wanted to become a Soul Sage, they had to go through the pains of enduring hurdles. When Man and Spirit become one, the three realms and Heaven and Earth would be yours to manipulate. But before that, you had to experience the torture of the body and soul. If you wanted to become a Soul Sage, then one had to end all relationships, and not feel feelings or love.
When he was little, Xiao Qi’s aunt had once told him that he had to be devoid of any feelings and love to become a Soul Sage. When his aunt was 800 years old, she fell in love with a human. She left him the ‘Soul Sage manual’ before she left. Xiao Qi grew even more callous after she left.
“Mentor, Lengyue has decided to become a Soul Sage.”
Xiao Qi’s ruminations were interrupted by Wuyou. He looked at the girl’s determined gaze, and for a moment, he truly believed in her.
Wuyou sat on the ground. She closed her eyes tightly and spread out her spirit mind, allowing herself to enter the state of obliviousness. There seemed to be a light guiding her. Blood flowed throughout her body. Wuyou sensed an airflow surging from her Dantian which spread throughout her body. Xiao Qi saw the Spiritual Power on her head. The Spiritual Power was gathering bit by bit, condensing into a transparent, thin film. Xiao Qi touched it lightly and his finger was sucked in. The Spiritual Power stuck to his finger as if it were a suction plate.
Xiao Qi had never seen such a Spiritual Power before. It was a Spiritual Power that could stay in any spiritual object. It would take root and bud even if it had a little Spiritual Root. It did not care how high your cultivation levels were. It only cared about the fated person who could let it be reborn.
Xiao Qi looked at the girl in front of him in confusion, for she could have such fate.
Xiao Qi looked at Qin Lengyue silently. He seemed to be able to see another soul in her physical body. The Spiritual Power that he had seen earlier was released by this soul.
Wuyou could sense Jiefei’s Spiritual Power. This was a power that she could not experience before. So it was this girl from Penglai who could cause Jiefei’s Spiritual Power to regain power again. What would life be for this ordinary and cowardly girl in the future? What about me? Can I become a little fox again? And will Xiao Qi cause my soul to disperse?
When Wuyou opened her eyes, she felt relaxed. The Spiritual Power flowing in her Dantian cleansed her muscles and bones. Wuyou was truly integrated into the Spiritual Power and there was no pain as she was engulfed. This was a true integration. The Spiritual Power might be powerful, but it was also gentle. As long as Wuyou touched it, the strands of neverending Spiritual Power would rush towards her. This was Uncle Jiefei, giving her warmth like the sun.
“Mentor, Lengyue has already comprehended some things.”
Wuyou truly liked and was thankful to Xiao Qi. A trapped soul was born once again. Uncle Jiefei’s Spiritual Power was released in this body. The Spiritual Power was powerful. She had only regulated her breathing slightly earlier, and her entire body was filled with strength. The little fox of the past would not have been able to reach such heights.
Xiao Qi knew that the soul was doing something strange, but Lengyue who was standing in front of him was dazzling. It was something Qin Lengyue had been unable to be like in the past.
This body was still filled with energy after the day. When the moon rose above the tree, Wuyou left the courtyard again. The Spiritual Power in his body was boiling. Wuyou could sense the Spiritual Power roaring.
The courtyard was surrounded by mountains, and was very suitable for soul cultivation. Wuyou sat on a stone bench, her eyes tightly shut as she breathed in and out. When the breath condensed on her fingers, Wuyou slowly dispersed the Spiritual Power. In each practice, the Spiritual Power between her hands grew to have its own Divine Awareness. It started to seek for the target that Wuyou wanted to attack. This mysterious Spiritual Power could not be seen, but it protected the person who directed it at all times and at all places.
Wuyou was still shocked by the Spiritual Power when the power on her finger killed the poisonous snake in the grass. What kind of Spiritual Power was this, that it could actually identify the ability of the danger? This speed was beyond the reaction of the person directing it. So this was the secret Spiritual Power from the Teal Hill. It was the Spiritual Power passed down by the elder of every generation. It was a pity that the elder of each generation had never understood its mysteries. Even Uncle Jiefei had not discovered it.
This Spiritual Power could only be reborn with the help of a mortal’s body. How great would it be if Uncle Jiefei had understood this earlier! Wuyou adjusted the souls, hoping that the soul would be unleashed. However, the Spiritual Power suddenly escaped. Wuyou followed it closely, and when she saw its power, she sighed. Not far away from the cave, were two animals being harassed by the Spiritual Power. When Wuyou walked up to them, she realized that they were Xiao Qi’s pets, a python, and a money toad. The two animals were tightly surrounded by the Spiritual Power and the struggling demons opened their mouths wide. Wuyou knew that Xiao Qi was nearby. There was only one cave here, Xiao Qi seemed to be inside.
Why was Xiao Qi hiding in the cave in the middle of the night? Could it be that he had a great secret? Wuyou slowed down her steps and walked toward the cave entrance step by step. When she reached the entrance, she realized that the cave was not as large as she had imagined. A massive rock blocked up half the entrance. Wuyou crawled through the circular hole, her body pressed tightly against the palisades. Her clothing was quickly drenched. It was late autumn, and the cave was very cold. It was fortunate that Wuyou’s Spiritual Power protected her physical body, so she felt slightly more comfortable.
The path in the cave was rugged and it was difficult to walk on. Wuyou followed the steep path until she reached the end of the cave. Wuyou discovered strange floating images along her way that told a story. When Wuyou saw Xiao Qi’s image, she stopped. Those images seemed real. They were so real that Wuyou was a little frightened. When Wuyou touched them, they disappeared without a trace.
Occasionally, the water droplets would drip against the palisades. Wuyou did not know how far she walked. Just as she was about to give up, a ray of light shone past her. Wuyou knew that it was the light of the Spiritual Power. Could it be Xiao Qi?
The closer the footsteps, the weaker the spiritual power grew. Wuyou looked around her. Every sound could bring danger in such a deep cave. What worried Wuyou was the Spiritual Power between her hands. She flew towards the depths of the cave, and Wuyou saw a dark figure emerging from the darkness. The Spiritual Power floated in the black shadow. And in the light, Wuyou saw Xiao Qi. Wuyou was surprised at how Xiao Qi seemed. He was very weak and was not the imposing man he was in the day. Xiao Qi leaned against the palisades, panting. His face was pale. Wuyou reached out and used her fingers to disperse the Spiritual Power on Xiao Qi’s body.
Suddenly the floating light in the cave started swirling. Wuyou had seen those images before and hoped that she would be able to leave the cave quickly. However, her feet felt as if they were being pulled on and she could not move. Those images were changing. She thought they were just images. There was a lion that pursued a group of prey against the wind. Wuyou could sense the roaring as a pride of lions passed by Wuyou the reverberating roars of the beasts were deafening.
Xiao Qi’s head was lowered and his hair was messy. His face, which was pale before, started to change. His black hair was slowly lightening. His long sleeves slowly began to tighten and burst. When Xiao Qi looked up in pain, Wuyou saw a lion. The skin that was not covered was quickly covered in hair. Sharp claws caught on his face, blood flowed, and the wound healed right before her eyes.
This was Xiao Qi’s golden body. It turned out to be a lion. It was stronger than a fox. She did not understand why Xiao Qi would come to the cave. Was he afraid that people would discover his true body? Xiao Qi was weak, and this would be the best time to kill him. It would be extremely beneficial to her. Firstly, she could become a true, Jiang Wuyou, and secondly, she can absorb Xiao Qi’s Spiritual Power and turn him into a dried lion. Wuyou had not even completed her thought before the Spiritual Power acted. The two spiritual twined around the lion’s head as if they were ropes. Wuyou felt bad when she saw the king of the forest looking so pathetic. She would let him go for Qin Lengyue’s sake. He was still her mentor right now.
Wuyou did not abandon Xiao Qi that night. Perhaps Qin Lengyue wanted to stay. Wuyou sat on the cold and damp rocks and guarded Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi, who had become a sick lion curled up into a ball. Perhaps it was tired, it did not mutilate itself again.
Staying in a secluded cave together with a lion, Wuyou felt sleepy even when she kept vigilant. There were a few times when she hit her head and it hurt. Perhaps Qin Lengyue pitied Xiao Qi. Wuyou laid in Qin Lengyue’s body and guarded Xiao Qi for her.
The night spent in the cave was extremely long. Wuyou saw many strange images. She saw a little boy being carried in the floating light. The little boy in the image grew up day by day, and the person carrying the boy must be a woman. It was just the image of her back. Wuyou knew that the woman was deceased. The little boy held on to the woman tightly. She should be the boy’s mother.
Wuyou slowly digested the images. When she saw the final image, it also answered all the doubts she had. The little boy was Xiao Qi. Wuyou could see Xiao Qi’s childhood and youth. It was a silver-colored world and was enveloped in snow. Xiao Qi rode on a large giant eagle, chasing after demons. Xiao Qi’s face in the image was filled with light. Even though his cultivation was nothing to speak off, there was an image that touched Wuyou. The little boy searched the world for his mother, and when the old man wearing a royal crown told him that the woman did not want him, the boy cried bitterly.
This was perhaps the child’s memorial to the past, but Wuyou did not know that the woman in the image was Xiao Qi’s aunt. She had once seen the woman on a picture, but the memories of the soul had been sealed by Xiao Qi. She had forgotten Xu Linghe. In the large cave, there was only Xiao Qi and those strange images other than her. Did Xiao Qi seal them here? Even though it was an illusion, Wuyou had indeed seen the bloody scene of a pride of lions chasing after prey. What other secrets are there in the cave? Only Xiao Qi could answer the question.
Dawn broke, the cave was still dark. Wuyou glanced at Xiao Qi, who had regained his human form and left quietly. She could not let Xiao Qi discover her. In order to stop Xiao Qi from growing suspicious, she used her Spiritual Power to cleanse her aura. Wuyou waited for everything to return to its original state and then, turned into a wisp of green smoke and left. She was worried that if Xiao Qi discovered that she had entered the cave one day and found out about his fatal weakness, he would kill her to ensure her silence. Wuyou’s heart jumped when she thought of that. She was too kind to hurt him, otherwise, why would she be afraid now?
Xiao Qi felt dazed when he woke up. He looked around him and knew that this was a cave behind the mountains. He saw that he was being guarded by the python and the money toad.
They had always stayed by his side when he was weak. Even though they were low-level demons, they had loyalty that humans cannot match up to.
Xiao Qi stretched lazily when he left the cave. After a tiring night, his primordial spirit had suffered some damage. But Xiao Qi still felt relaxed.
Such torture can only make him stronger. Even though his physical body and spirit had been injured in the process, Xiao Qi knew that difficulties would strengthen his willpower.
He was closer to his goal. He would charge forth bravely so that he could succeed.
The mountain was desolate in late autumn. The hillside in the distance had already turned golden. There was the occasional red in it, making it look a little more enchanting.
Xiao Qi’s gaze stretched further. He knew that there was an extremely cold place deep in the mountains. That was where his hometown was. There, there were his subjects and his elderly grandfather.
Now that he thought about it, he wondered how Fairy City was doing now that he had left the Fairy Kingdom for a century.
Back then, his grandfather had sent him away to avoid the disaster. He wondered if the elderly man was well. It seemed that he should return.
Xiao Qi walked along the path, the python and money toad walked, one in front and one behind him. Xiao Qi stopped occasionally, waiting for the python. The python was cold-blooded and always strayed far from its master. Its long tail was coiled in circles and it laid on a tile that was on a high spot. When Xiao Qi and approached, the python had disappeared without a trace.
The two demons accompanied and he arrived at his home unwittingly. Xiao Qi only recalled then, that he had to teach Qin Lengyue today.
The sect entrance knowledge that he talked about yesterday was difficult for Qin Lengyue. However, it was too simple in practice for the soul.
Xiao Qi did not have time to think about the relationship between Lengyue and the soul in her. The soul was important to Qin Lengyue and even more important to him. Time was tight, and there were not too many days until the Soul Battle Meet at the Fairy City.
This year, Xiao Qi would appear with a mysterious identity, but he would not fight. Qin Lengyue’s current level was not qualified to fight. If he wanted to shine in the Fairy City, he had to have a trump card that could turn the tide.
Xiao Qi had witnessed a strange Spiritual Power yesterday. Such a small Spiritual Power was protecting the person directing it at all times. Xiao Qi had wanted to probe it then, but the Spiritual Power wanted to attack him. These Spiritual Powers have responded even when the power and divine awareness had not merged. This had surprised Xiao Qi very much. No one in the three realms has ever mentioned such a Spiritual Power. This type of Ancient Spirit had already been lost for tens and thousands of years. It must be God’s will for him to discover it yesterday. God blessed the Fairy Kingdom and let me encounter the strange and powerful ancient spirit. This must be the Jiangyu power of the four legendary ancient gods.
This elusive Spiritual Power could only be the Teal Hill Jiangyu.
The python and money toad that followed closely behind had disappeared. They must be tired after guarding him through the night.
