Is this... the world of the strong? But just at that moment, the ground suddenly and fiercely trembled. Bai Qiuran clapped his hands and said, "I've already figured out a cultivation technique for you. Once you finish the tenth tier of the Fortune Body Forging Technique, I'll take you to the adjacent mountain and officially teach you your cultivation methods." The young woman's face was dark as she sat alone in a corner of the hot spring, and seeing her bad mood, the few nearby monkeys quietly slipped away from the hot spring, terrified of angering her. It crossed the mountain stream between Qingming's Main Peak and several secondary peaks, slowly arriving beside Seven Star Peak, then this mountain paused slightly before suddenly rising straight up from the ground as if someone had just thrown it, shooting directly across a distance of several li and landing with a boom beside Seven Star Peak, while at that moment, another huge seal of spells covered down from the sky, suppressing the violent vibrations caused by the mountain deep into the underground. The young woman glanced at it, and her expression darkened. There were no bathhouses on Seven Star Peak, and even if she soiled her body, Bai Qiuran only needed a minor spell to resolve it, but there was still a place to bathe on Seven Star Peak—a natural hot spring located halfway up the mountain that Bai Qiuran used as an occasional pastime and relaxation. Tang Ruowei smiled faintly, then began to undress. When she returned to the courtyard, Tang Ruowei happened to run into Bai Qiuran, who had just returned, at the entrance. Soaking in the hot spring, Tang Ruowei let out a very innocent and silly smile. Whether it was her imagination or not, she always felt that after practicing the Fortune Body Forging Technique, her chest seemed to have become a bit softer and taller. Just like that, another peak was added to the Azure Nether Sword Sect mountains, and beside Seven Star Peak, yet another neighbor had appeared. "Is this... the world of the strong?" "They'll have it, they'll all have it." Tang Ruowei opened her mouth, not knowing what to reply. This kind of small thoughtfulness made Tang Ruowei feel a slight warmth in her heart, and she picked up a meat bun to take a gentle bite, then noticed the note Bai Qiuran had placed and pressed down under the steamer. Taking her spare clothes and thinking about it for a moment, Tang Ruowei furtively opened the chest she had quietly brought under her bed, took out two strangely shaped and soft pads from inside, hid them in her clothes, and walked along the mountain path to the hot spring halfway up the mountain. It seemed Bai Qiuran had used a spell to seal the temperature of the food, keeping it in a constant state of warmth. Damn it, others will have them in the future too... "All right, it's getting late, you should go to sleep." Seeing his body covered in dust and his return from the outside late at night, Tang Ruowei had already guessed something, and asked with a complicated expression, "Master, that mountain next door..." Rip! After obtaining the Fortune Body Forging Technique, Tang Ruowei practiced it with rapt obsession deep into the night due to some unspeakable reason. Her former friend and current master currently looked as though he had rolled down a mountain; his white robes were covered in dust and he looked extremely disheveled. Carefully putting away the scroll of the Fortune Body Forging Technique, Tang Ruowei felt her sweat-soaked clothes sticking to her body and decided to go take a bath. "I'm going out to find a training ground for you. Go to sleep early yourself, don't practice too late or too aggressively, and be careful not to blast your board-flat chest into oblivion." But doing this was completely useless either, as Bai Qiuran wasn't here; after sulking alone for half a day, Tang Ruowei finished off the table full of food and only then realized how enormous the consumption from her recent practice had been. Afterward, Tang Ruowei saw the culprit who had caused this commotion. Seeing her, Bai Qiuran took the initiative to greet her, then asked with great surprise, "Eh, Ruowei, you've already finished practicing the first tier of the Fortune Body Forging Technique?" Returning to her room, Tang Ruowei saw a simple table of food placed on her table, reached out to touch it, and the spirit light of a spell emerged—the meat buns in the steamer were still warm. At this very moment, this towering mountain that pierced the clouds was moving toward Seven Star Peak step by step, as if its lower half had grown legs. Tang Ruowei expressionlessly tore the note in her hand to shreds; the warmth that had just risen in her heart vanished completely, replaced by a boiling, roiling dark emotion. She grabbed a meat bun, treated it as a certain someone, and took a ferocious, large bite as the soup inside splattered everywhere. Mm, ah... Amidst a burst of clothing friction sounds that made a man's blood surge, Tang Ruowei's naked, jade-like body was exposed to the air: skin as flawless and delicate as white porcelain, full and rounded buttocks, a slender and soft waist, long and graceful legs, and well, a chest as open and unencumbered as a man's. Staring blankly at the abruptly appeared black mountain, Tang Ruowei opened her mouth wide as the towel dropped into the water. Upon seeing her chest, a female monkey sitting by the spring water pointed at her and screeched weirdly, patted its own abdomen, and then raised both arms to display its own bosom to Tang Ruowei. Tang Ruowei covered her chest with a towel, stood up from the hot spring, and looked toward the Azure Nether Mountains; lights had already been lit on the mountains over there, sword lights occasionally flashed and shuttled across, and the bell of the Qingming mountain gate had rung three times. It seemed they did not know the cause of the drastic change either, but strangely, a moment later the bell stopped ringing, and those sword lights dwindled by more than half, apparently someone had stopped the panicked Qingming disciples. Bai Qiuran patted his body and replied, "I saw that the material structure of this mountain is very suitable for turning it into an earth-attribute training ground, but I don't know sword flight, otherwise I could have carried it back from the sky and wouldn't have had to make such a huge commotion late at night." "Squeak! Squeak!" C-Cursed thing, even a female monkey had curves! When she finally emerged drenched in sweat, she discovered that she had actually already finished practicing the realm of the first tier. It was fine to anger her, but behind her stood that old monster who had entrenched himself on Seven Star Peak for countless years. While letting her skin submerge as much as possible in the hot spring water, Tang Ruowei reached out to massage her chest. The water in the hot spring rippled in wide circles as if a bowl on a table had been accidentally knocked over, and the monkeys that had been soaking in the hot spring and comfortably enjoying the water all shrieked in shrill cries, fleeing in panic into the forest. "What happened?" "..." A few monkeys were already soaking in the hot spring halfway up the mountain. These little monkeys were native creatures born on Seven Star Peak and possessed innate spirituality; seeing Tang Ruowei arrive, they weren't afraid at all, and two of them even scratched their crimson buttocks, then squeaked to invite Tang Ruowei over, ceding the best spot to her. "Ah, that thing? I moved it back from the Western Lands." Immediately following that, rhythmic shaking arrived, causing the surrounding earth to quake and the hot spring water to sway unceasingly. The vibration grew more and more obvious, as if a giant were approaching in this direction. That was a towering peak, estimated to be about a thousand meters in height. There was no vegetation on the mountain, and it was composed of a pitch-black rock, looking completely barren, yet the very top of the mountain seemed to have been sliced off by a sword, turning it into a flat platform...
