A Debt Owed, the Inner World!
Tang Yan is still pondering and has gone into seclusion to cultivate her skills.
Meanwhile, Haiyue, the principal wife, had a long-awaited conversation with Qin Lu, saying that although they hadn't had much love between them over the years...
But after spending so much time together, they've come to regard each other as family.
Given Haiyue's lazy nature, the fact that she actually sought out Qin Lu during this time suggests she's encountered a bottleneck in her Immortal Cultivation journey...
The Great Qin Nebula - Heaven Beyond Pavilion
Qin Lu made Haiyue a cup of tea, but she glanced at him, took a sip, and asked in a provocative tone:
"How?"
"We've been married for over three thousand years, why are you being so polite?"
"You had Qiao Mei before, and then Yueji later, I won't say much about those, but why do you still want to find a True Immortal concubine after becoming an immortal?"
Haiyue's smile was enigmatic, leaving the usually cold-blooded Qin Lu momentarily speechless, yet he still managed to soften his tone towards this young lady...
Things like "everything is for spiritual practice" or "a steadfast heart toward the Tao."
Even though Haiyue was only at the Nascent Soul Perfection stage, it made this Soul Dao Golden Immortal feel somewhat restrained and unconsciously guilty...
"Alright, I didn't come to you for your petty troubles. Tone down your celestial aura; it's making me uncomfortable."
Upon hearing this, Qin Lu tried his best to conceal his aura; otherwise, if Hai Yue stayed with him for too long, she would be influenced by his Golden Immortal Daoist aura...
If the soul undergoes a mutation, the result could be a state of being half-dead.
"Okay, okay, I'll do whatever you say."
"Seeing how smoothly your cultivation has progressed over the years, and how well the Wood Demon clan has developed, with Fusheng advancing to the Nascent Spirit Transformation, and Zhu Xiao and Bai Lian, those two younger ones, also advancing to the Spirit Transformation a few years ago..."
"Your Wood Demon lineage has three Nascent Spirit Transformation; that's truly impressive."
"You've come to see me today, is there some problem?"
Haiyue, unusually composed, abandoned her languid expression and appeared preoccupied, finally recounting her own problems in a slow and deliberate manner:
You probably already know what happened to me back then.
"A friend from years ago left me a spatial treasure, which I later used to open up my inner space, but as I continued to cultivate..."
"This space is getting bigger and bigger, and it has even advanced to the level of the Spirit Ascension Secret Realm. My cultivation speed is being held back by this small world..."
"All told, I've lived for seven thousand years. The lifespan of Nascent Soul Wood Demon, though extremely long, varies from person to person."
"My true form is the Bright Moon Begonia, and my lifespan is estimated to be only 12,000 years. Now, more than half of that time has already passed..."
"But now that I'm stuck in this small world, even if I eventually break through to the Spirit Transformation, I'm afraid my progress will be stagnant for the rest of my life..."
"Therefore, I hope you can help me..."
As she finished speaking, Haiyue's voice trailed off. She knew that the Qin Humans Race's current situation was complex, and they needed to supply resources to cultivators who truly had the potential to break through to True Immortal...
But she naturally didn't want to die either. Qin Zheng was, after all, her child. If nothing unexpected happened, Qin Zheng could continue to exist in the universe, while she would only have a lifespan of a few tens of thousands of years.
In the vast universe, tens of thousands of years is but a fleeting moment...
So, she was afraid.
For the first time, she felt the fear of death and couldn't bear not being able to stay with her child. True Immortal could easily go into seclusion for hundreds or thousands of years, while she only had a lifespan of tens of thousands of years.
How long can I accompany Qin Zheng in the future?
Upon seeing this, Qin Lu realized his mistake. He knew he had failed his dao companion, after all, the Qin Humans Race possessed the vast majority of resources...
All of it was supplied to him, and a few promising True Immortal...
Although the Wood Demon clan lived a decent life, they actually favored and reserved the most valuable core resources for their own clan members and descendants.
Qin Lu naturally felt a little guilty. After all, she was his dao companion. As the saying goes, "When one attains the Dao, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven," so he couldn't really mistreat her...
I've been busy with other things and have really neglected the matter of the Wood Demon lineage.
"Don't worry, I understand your situation."
"The Spirit Ascension Secret Realm within the body' you mentioned should be the path to the Creation method of the Inner World. I will ask Long Yuntian for some cultivation insights on this later..."
"Furthermore, the resources for that child in Zhenyu no longer need to be supplied."
"He's not far from becoming an immortal. His resources will be used to nourish you, and your physical body will grow tremendously in the future. You should be prepared."
"Furthermore, I will have the clan increase the resources for the Wood Demon lineage fivefold."
"Oh, and the Soul Wood Dao subsidiary plane star that I condensed back then. That subsidiary plane is already a superior plane, so I'll bestow it upon your Wood Demon lineage, along with four first-generation subsidiary planes."
"A total of one large and four small, five subsidiary planes, five times the resources, and your own exclusive support—I'll arrange everything for you."
"I will also get you a replacement cultivation method for later."
