The Steel Plate Has Flown Off with the Yellow Crane; All That Remains Here Is an Empty Virtual Foundation

One month later, in the Small Courtyard of the Hehuan Sect.

"Father."

Bai Xuxiang hugged her father's leg and rested her head on his body.

"They've broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage! Is there any reward?"

"Xuxiang is so good..."

The White Hair man reached out and touched her head, his expression looking somewhat haggard for some reason.

"A reward? Oh right, I should give you a reward..."

He reached into his Storage Bag Consciousness and rummaged around, but found nothing. He just remained in that position, staring blankly at a flower in the yard, lost in thought.

"Father."

Seeing that her father was being perfunctory, Bai Xuxiang pouted unhappily.

Just as she was about to continue arguing, a pair of hands suddenly reached out from behind, grabbed her armpits, and lifted her up.

"Alright, Xuxiang, don't disturb your father."

Tang Ruowei hugged her.

"After all, he failed again."

She glanced at Bai Qiuran with a smug look, her face full of the arrogance of a victor.

And on her chest, a pair of C+ size breasts already stood tall and proud.

Bai Xuxiang rested her head against Tang Ruowei's chest, no longer resisting. This time, for some reason, Tang Ruowei's chest no longer felt rough; instead, there was a soft cushion, just like her Mother Xiangxue's. Therefore, Bai Xuxiang no longer resisted.

Tang Ruowei had always liked her, and had bought her all sorts of things and fulfilled her every request.

Perhaps sensing Tang Ruowei's smug gaze, Bai Qiuran snapped out of her dejection, glanced at her apprentice, and said disdainfully, "Hmph, what right does someone who won by being worse than me have to put on such an act in front of me?"

"Yes, I'm much less skilled than you."

Tang Ruowei picked at her thumbnail with her index finger and said casually, "But our bet wasn't about who's worse... Master, I'm very grateful for your hard work in helping me achieve my dream, but I did my best too."

A month ago, Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei, who were hiding in the Material World deep within the Consciousness Domain and were carrying out the "Self-Deliverance Great Vow," did indeed use their full strength when they exchanged abilities for the second time.

Under the influence of the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable's Enlightening Finger, Bai Qiuran's mind temporarily took control of Tang Ruowei's body. For him, the creator of the Fortune Body Forging Technique, breaking through the mere forty-nine levels was not difficult. Moreover, Tang Ruowei had been diligently practicing every day and was already on the verge of a breakthrough. She just needed an opportunity to break through.

Therefore, Bai Qiuran became the catalyst. Stimulated by the power of the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable, Tang Ruowei successfully broke through the Absolute Wall, defied fate, and gained the ability to freely change her physical form.

Not only did her wish come true, but she also gained a particularly terrifying ability.

Originally, Tang Ruowei's bloodline ability was limited to her Breastbone. Her Breastbone could grow bone plates that covered her internal organs, protecting them and her Purple Mansion. However, under the influence of the Fortune Body Forging Technique, this Breastbone underwent a super evolution. Under the constant hammering of powerful experts such as Bai Qiuran and Jiang Lan, the defensive capabilities of this Breastbone are now outrageously high, and it also comes with immunity to various spells, Divine Ability, and Superpower.

However, a side effect of doing this is that Tang Ruowei may never develop breasts.

After reaching the fiftieth level of the Fortune Body Forging Technique, Tang Ruowei was able to gradually extend the effects of the Breastbone to her entire body without experiencing the previous side effects.

She now possessed the beautiful figure she had always dreamed of. Upon returning, she immediately went to Shangxuan, nearly causing her elderly niece, the emperor, to die of anger.

Bai Qiuran was not so lucky. Even compared to Tang Ruowei's Consciousness Demon Clone, which was stronger than an Immortal Emperor, his Purple Mansion was far too powerful. Tang Ruowei's Consciousness Demon Clone's abilities did not bring the desired effect when applied to him.

Tang Ruowei's Breast Enhancement Bodhisattva ability is extremely powerful, as it directly affects concepts. Therefore, Bai Qiuran suggested that she release her ability directly onto the concept of "the ratio of True Essence to True Qi".

Initially, when Tang Ruowei's ability to Gigantification was applied to the True Essence within Bai Qiuran's body, it did indeed cause a rapid increase in his True Essence. Under the effect of the ability, the ratio of True Essence to True Qi within Bai Qiuran's body began to increase, the speed of True Qi condensation accelerated, and the proportion of True Essence gradually increased from 70% to 80% and then 90%.

However, perhaps due to overdoing it, just as the True Qi in his body was about to be completely transformed into True Essence, all the acupoints in his body suddenly opened up, frantically absorbing the endless energy in that Material World and the Void. The True Qi and True Essence in his body also doubled in just a few tens of minutes.

Just as Tang Ruowei's ability to Gigantification was exempted by her own Breastbone, Bai Qiuran, as the creator of the Fortune Body Forging Technique, who also cultivated it and whose level was much higher, also viewed Tang Ruowei's ability as a threat.

In those few short seconds, his body changed, automatically exempting him from Tang Ruowei's abilities, and because his Purple Mansion was stimulated, he suddenly broke through to a higher realm that he hadn't been able to break through for a long time.

His internal True Qi suddenly surged, and although his True Essence also increased, the rate was much slower than that of his True Qi. After the breakthrough, the ratio of his internal True Qi to his True Essence returned to about 70%.

"But speaking of which, Master, when you broke through, why did your True Qi increase so much faster than your True Essence?"

Tang Ruowei held Bai Xuxiang in her arms and sat on the Bamboo Chair next to Bai Qiuran.

"Is it that some unseen force still considers your cultivation level to be at the Qi Refining Stage?"

"Bullshit!"

Bai Qiuran slammed her hand on the table beside her, furious.

"I am only at the Virtual Foundation Stage! If I were to break through, it would be from the first level of Virtual Foundation Stage to the second level!"

"Why are you calculating from one to four, instead of the early, middle, and late stages...? Perhaps you're not even sure yourself."

Tang Ruowei muttered under her breath.

"Um?"

Bai Qiuran's eyes widened, while Tang Ruowei immediately turned her head away with an embarrassed smile.

"Father."

Bai Xuxiang bit her finger and asked, "What is a penis?"

"Cough cough!"

Bai Qiuran an affected manner, realizing to herself that things were going badly.

He was so excited that he forgot his daughter was still there, and now he's in an awkward situation.

Your dad was talking about chicken neck.

Tang Ruowei explained.

"Oh, chicken necks are delicious! I love my great-grandmother's braised chicken necks."

Bai Xuxiang asked happily, "But do chicken necks also have eggs?"

That's a dish.

Tang Ruowei is talking nonsense.

"It's simply braising chicken necks and peeled eggs together."

Bai Xuxiang's mouth watered at the sound of her voice, so she jumped off Tang Ruowei and teleported into the room. Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei heard her pestering Li Jinyao to make her braised eggs and chicken necks.

"Master, consider this a debt you owe me."

Tang Ruowei said to Bai Qiuran, "Don't forget about our bet."
