Step by Step Ascend to Immortality

Chapter 108: Chapter 98 Passing a letter

Shen Yaqin scanned Liu Suiyun several times before asking after roughly confirming, "Suiyun, besides this borrowed talisman seed, you should also be cultivating both martial arts and Daoism. What cultivation technique are you practicing?"

Liu Suiyun honestly confessed, "Disciple is practicing the 'Extreme Yuan Thunder Forging Divine Record'."

Chen Xingrui couldn't help blurting out, "Junior Brother Liu, isn't this the famous cultivation technique of True Lord Yunpeng?"

Shen Yaqin, however, smiled at the corner of her mouth. "That's good. It seems that Master's wife didn't misjudge people. Did you have any extraordinary encounters? Although this 'Extreme Yuan Thunder Forging Divine Record' can achieve quick progress, the residues after refining qi, blood, and soul often settle in the body. It will be extremely difficult to progress in the future. Looking at you, disciple, your body is extremely pure and doesn't seem to have left any hidden troubles."

"Disciple had an extraordinary encounter in Luoxing Mountain. I encountered a pair of extremely powerful little female immortals flying in the air. At that time, wisps of spiritual rain fell on disciple. Disciple only felt extremely comfortable all over. All old injuries disappeared. At that time, I could even eat a whole table of food and wine."

Shen Yaqin asked for some details. Liu Suiyun also told the truth, only omitting the most crucial part. In the end, Shen Yaqin still didn't find out anything. "That's very good. Let me ask you. Although there are countless cultivation techniques in our Shenxiao Sect, and there are even many cultivation techniques for the Golden Elixir stage. But if you want to switch to other cultivation techniques, you have to start all over again. Are you still willing to practice this 'Extreme Yuan Thunder Forging Divine Record'?"

She added another sentence, "Although I have never practiced the 'Extreme Yuan Thunder Forging Divine Record', it is enough to give you some guidance. With this extraordinary encounter, you must be able to go further than ordinary people. This cultivation technique might even lead directly to the Golden Elixir stage."

Liu Suiyun replied, "Disciple is willing. Disciple can't wait that long!"

"Good!" Shen Yaqin immediately made a decision. She saw a piece of rice paper on the table that someone had left there and walked over to start folding it. While doing so, she said to several disciples, "This time, I will take on this feud for Suiyun. True Lord Yunpeng, right?"

"Yes!" Liu Suiyun replied. "Master's wife has a true immortal body. There is no need to worry about disciple's trivial matters. Everything will be handled by disciple."

Shen Yaqin's slender hands moved quickly, making Liu Suiyun's eyes dazzled. She said, "I said that I won't let disciples suffer losses. Then I won't let disciples suffer losses. Alright!"

Liu Suiyun had already seen an ordinary piece of white paper folded into a paper crane in Shen Yaqin's hands. He didn't know what it was for.

Liu Suiyun vaguely remembered that among the opponents he encountered in Luoxing Mountain, it seemed that someone had also scattered such paper cranes. As they grew longer, they were extremely similar to the thousand paper cranes folded by Shen Yaqin. "Master's wife, what is this?"

"Don't be impatient!" Shen Yaqin told Liu Suiyun. "I'll add a few strokes."

Shen Yaqin didn't know where she took out a purple-haired brush and casually added a few strokes on this small and exquisite thousand paper crane. The paper crane became even more vivid. Then Shen Yaqin said with a smile to the paper crane, "Shen Yaqin of Shenxiao Mountain respectfully invites True Lord Yunpeng of Guihu Cave to gather at Chonghua Peak!"

Liu Suiyun still didn't understand what this paper crane of Master's wife was for. This piece of paper was originally just a piece of rice paper casually left on the table. The folded paper crane was no different from an ordinary thousand paper crane in the secular world. Even if Master's wife said a few words to the paper crane, could there be any earth-shaking changes?

But in the next moment, Liu Suiyun was completely stunned by Shen Yaqin. As soon as Shen Yaqin picked up the brush, the paper crane flew in the wind. As it met the wind, it grew. In an instant, it became vivid. Flapping its wings with a "puttering" sound, the cold wind from the flapping wings blew in his face. Soon, it completely turned into a crane flying among the sea of clouds, no different from the cranes that Liu Suiyun had seen that could carry cultivators.

But what surprised Liu Suiyun was not limited to this. As he watched, this crane grew bigger and bigger. Although it flew farther and higher, its size in Liu Suiyun's eyes remained almost the same. Only then did Liu Suiyun realize that this paper crane that was originally in Shen Yaqin's palm had now turned into a giant crane even larger than the entire room.

This is truly the means of a true immortal!

Liu Suiyun was extremely impressed and immediately knelt down in front of Shen Yaqin when he saw the giant crane fly into the sea of clouds. "Making Master's wife worry and expend effort. Disciple is truly uneasy. Disciple doesn't know how to thank Master's wife for her great kindness of giving disciple a new life."

"It's just a small matter!" Shen Yaqin was very relaxed. "Let's find a place to sit. If True Lord Yunpeng is in Guihu Cave, Crane should come back soon!"

Liu Suiyun was truly extremely impressed. Thinking of the slender paper crane in Shen Yaqin's palm that could turn into such a giant crane in the clouds in an instant, this was truly the means of a true immortal.

Liu Suiyun had no idea how this paper crane had changed. He only knew that there was still a huge gap between him and such true immortal means.

The distance at which Qi Condensation stage cultivators can cast Daoist techniques is very limited. In the early stage of Qi Condensation, it is only ten zhang. In the middle stage of Qi Condensation, it reaches twenty zhang. Only in the later stage of Qi Condensation can it increase to thirty zhang.

But according to Liu Suiyun's feeling, this thirty zhang is purely a theoretical maximum distance. The real distance that can be controlled freely is still between ten and fifteen zhang. After fifteen zhang, one starts to feel somewhat powerless. Beyond twenty zhang, he feels that he is just showing off. Not only is there no accuracy at all, but after expending great effort, the power is less than one-tenth of what it should be.

Even if there are later stages such as great accomplishment in Qi Condensation and quasi-Foundation Establishment, they only increase the limit of Daoist techniques by a few zhang. Only by breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage can the killing distance of Daoist techniques reach a hundred zhang, which is what is commonly said in the secular world as "devastating half a li."

Liu Suiyun is not clear about the power limit of Foundation Establishment stage Daoist techniques. Presumably, at most, it is only two or three hundred zhang. And ordinary Golden Elixir cultivators can only make further progress on the control distance of the Foundation Establishment stage. Reaching five hundred zhang or a thousand zhang is already the limit, right?

But this move by his own master's wife is too astonishing. After the slender paper crane turned into a giant crane, its speed was astonishing. In no time, it had already flown several hundred zhang. Moreover, it flew higher and faster. In an hour, it could surely fly several hundred miles or even thousands of miles, right?

Although Liu Suiyun didn't know where the Guihu Cave where True Lord Yunpeng lived was exactly, just Shenxiao Mountain alone had a radius of ten thousand li. Thinking of Shen Yaqin sending a letter with a paper crane to a place ten thousand li away, Liu Suiyun couldn't suppress his admiration. Master's wife is indeed not an ordinary Golden Elixir cultivator!

Shen Yaqin, however, led a group of disciples to find a stone table under the starlight and sat down. "Sit down, all of you. Sit down. Crane won't come back so soon. Master's wife will make a pot of tea for you later. Also, Mingyue, when there are guests coming later, clean yourself up!"

"Understood, Master's wife!" Guan Mingyue was at least at the great accomplishment stage of Foundation Establishment. Liu Suiyun didn't know how he would clean up. In an instant, Guan Mingyue's drunkenness had disappeared. He was full of heroic spirit, and there was no longer any smell of alcohol. He was already a resolute and tough man. "Master's wife, should I go get the tea set?"

"Go!" Shen Yaqin reminded. "Suiyun, sit down!"

"Um!" Liu Suiyun quickly and obediently sat on the stone bench. Looking around, he saw small bridges and flowing water, the tinkling of streams, lush flowers and leaves, and connected pavilions, all complementing each other and being a feast for the eyes. Most likely, this was the work of his own master's wife.

"By the way!" Shen Yaqin asked Liu Suiyun. "I forgot to ask just now. Where did you borrow this borrowed talisman seed?"

Liu Suiyun told the truth. "This Five Peaks Talisman belongs to my wife. It has the power of three mountains and five peaks. So she lent it to me to use in the sect competition."

"Your wife?" Shen Yaqin seemed to remember something. "I called you over just now but forgot to inform her. Why didn't you remind me?"

"Disciple also forgot!" Liu Suiyun also remembered. "Presumably Senior Brother Shan will arrange everything properly."

"Let me do it!" Shen Yaqin looked around and finally found a piece of yellow hemp paper, which was only half a foot long. She picked up the purple-haired brush and wrote a few words on this yellow hemp paper: "Liu Suiyun has entered under the tutelage of Chu Nan Hua of Chonghua Peak. Everything is fine. Don't worry..."

This was the first time Liu Suiyun had seen Shen Yaqin write. Although Liu Suiyun didn't know much about calligraphy, he also felt that these characters were flowing like clouds and water, each character was rich and beautiful, almost reaching the extreme of beauty. "Master's wife is truly a true immortal. Even writing is so beautiful..."

As Shen Yaqin was writing, she asked, "Where does your wife live? I'll let her know."

"That's too thank you, Master's wife!" Liu Suiyun replied. "She lives at Red Maple Inn. When I left, she also said to tell me to drink less and come back early. I didn't expect that when I saw Master's wife's true immortal body, I forgot about this. Thank you so much, Master's wife!"

The yellow hemp paper was not large, and Shen Yaqin's writing was even smaller. Soon, she had written more than a hundred characters. Before the ink on the yellow hemp paper dried, Shen Yaqin patted it with her slender hand. This piece of yellow hemp paper had already seemed to be covered with a layer of gold. Then Shen Yaqin waved her hand, and the golden paper had turned into a golden talisman and flew out of Shenxiao Mountain.

"Don't worry!" Shen Yaqin replied. "Don't worry. As soon as my divine talisman arrives, naturally someone will settle your wife down overnight. But let me make it clear to you. Our Chonghua Peak has rules, and Master's wife will not make an exception for you."

"Don't worry, Master's wife." Liu Suiyun replied. "Originally, she was waiting for me to enter the Shenxiao Sect and then prepare to return to her parents' home."

"That's your fault!" Shen Yaqin smiled. "Rules are dead, but people are alive. Although your entry into our Chonghua Peak is not something worthy of a grand celebration, it is still a happy event. No matter what, you should keep the bride on Chonghua Peak for a month or half a day. Master's wife always shows this kind of kindness."

Just as she was speaking, Guan Mingyue had already brought over the entire tea set. "Master's wife, the tea leaves are here! Today is a great day for Junior Brother Liu to enter. What kind of tea should we use?"

Shen Yaqin had already gotten up to arrange the tea set. She didn't use any firewood. After bringing the water from the stream, she waved her hand, and fire had already risen on the teapot. With a wave of her long sleeve, fragrant tea leaves had fallen like colorful fallen petals. "Today, your Junior Brother Liu's entry is a happy event. Master's wife will let you taste Mengding Ganlu!"

"Thank you, Master's wife!" Chen Xingrui quickly said. "It is said that the tea on Mengding Mountain and the water in the Yangtze River. Today, thanks to Junior Brother Liu's blessing, we can taste this real Mengding Ganlu!"

Before the water had boiled, the fragrance of tea had already filled the air. Guan Mingyue was chatting with Liu Suiyun on the side. "Junior Brother Liu, don't be impatient. Our Master's wife's tea art is top-notch among the top-notch in our entire firmament. We have to savor it slowly! Besides, the night is getting deep. This tea can just refresh us."

Liu Suiyun replied, "Thank you, Senior Brother. Disciple can go without sleep for three to five days without any problem."

"But who knows when Crane will come back!" Fang Mingyue replied. "True Lord Yunpeng is known for being overbearing."

Just as they were speaking, Shen Yaqin had already lifted the teapot. "Taste the Mengding Ganlu brewed by Master's wife and see how it tastes!"
