Chapter 58

Thank you very much to Fan Qiu Zhi Ji 999 and Xue Lan You 99 for your generous donations!

With her cultivation at the fourth level of the Qi Refinement stage, Xu Ziyun naturally could easily sense the direction of the true qi flowing within Xu Qinxue’s body through her own qi.

After a quarter of an hour, Xu Ziyun discovered that the true qi in Xu Qinxue’s body was deviating slightly during its circulation. This deviation would not cause significant harm to Xu Qinxue’s body or cultivation, but it would disperse the true qi within her body. When she tried to break through the barrier, the originally pure and thick true essence would gradually disperse as it circulated through her meridians, leading to a lack of strength.

Actually, these pieces of knowledge were recorded in the books in the library, especially in the cultivation notes left by the predecessors in the library, which provided more detailed descriptions. However, the library was too large, and just the first floor alone had countless books. These outer hall disciples, fearing that reading them would consume their cultivation time, did not read them carefully. Even if they went to the library, they probably went to look for powerful combat techniques, and no one studied the most basic knowledge, which was the foundation of cultivation.

After figuring out the reason for the deviation in Xu Qinxue’s body, Xu Ziyun softly said to Xu Qinxue, "Qinxue, when you circulate your true essence, there is a slight deviation in your meridians. Pay attention now; I will use my true qi to guide the flow of your true qi. Remember this path."

After saying this, Xu Ziyun released a thread of true essence from her body into Xu Qinxue’s body, guiding the flow of Xu Qinxue’s true essence.

After one complete cycle, Xu Ziyun softly asked, "Do you remember it?"

Xu Qinxue nodded slightly with excitement. Xu Ziyun softly said, "Good, now follow the path I guided and circulate your true essence for one complete cycle, and I will observe."

Xu Qinxue nodded slightly, calmed her excited mind, and when her mind was as still as an ancient well, she began to slowly circulate the true essence within her body.

The surrounding new disciples held their breath and watched Xu Qinxue, wanting to see what would happen to her under Xu Ziyun’s guidance.

Xu Ziyun’s hand never left Xu Qinxue’s back. Soon, Xu Qinxue completed one cycle. Xu Ziyun felt the vigorous movement of Xu Qinxue’s true essence, full of vitality. Xu Ziyun immediately knew that this was a sign of a breakthrough and quickly said softly:

"Do not listen, circulate your true essence to break through the barrier!"

Xu Qinxue’s body trembled slightly, and a look of surprise flashed across her face. But she immediately controlled her mind and continued to circulate the true essence within her body, aiming to break through the barrier of the seventh level of the Later Heaven stage.

After half an hour, Xu Qinxue’s body burst forth with a vigorous aura from the inside out. Xu Ziyun smiled and withdrew her hand from Xu Qinxue’s back, watching her quietly.

The spiritual energy in the air gathered towards Xu Qinxue, and her clothes fluttered without any wind. The surrounding new disciples watched Xu Qinxue, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, in shock, then they all looked at Xu Ziyun with respect, the kind of respect usually reserved for elders.

After two quarters of an hour, the fluctuating aura around Xu Qinxue gradually calmed down. Xu Qinxue slowly opened her eyes, her face filled with excitement. She was now filled with gratitude and respect for Xu Ziyun, a respect for a strong elder.

Turning around, she knelt on the bed and bowed to Xu Ziyun, saying softly, "Thank you!"

Xu Ziyun reached out to help Xu Qinxue up, satisfied with her attitude. A person who knows gratitude is trustworthy, and Xu Ziyun thought about whether to take Xu Qinxue as her confidant and give her some of the pills she had refined.

However, Xu Ziyun temporarily abandoned this idea because her current cultivation speed was already considered that of a genius in others' eyes, and some of the higher-ups in the family knew she was a genius in talisman making. If people found out she was also a genius in alchemy, it would cause a great stir. A commoner has no crime, but possessing a precious gem is a sin. Xu Ziyun understood this principle and decided to be low-key until she had the strength to protect herself.

After letting Xu Qinxue go, Xu Ziyun checked the cultivation methods of each new disciple one by one and provided guidance. After everything was done, Xu Ziyun gave a detailed explanation of the basic knowledge of cultivation and her cultivation experience. She also told them not to focus solely on cultivation but to frequently visit the library. When they entered the library, they should not just pick books on martial techniques but also read books on the basics of cultivation, especially the cultivation notes left by the predecessors.

By this time, it was already close to midnight. Xu Ziyun was a bit dry in the mouth from talking, so she gently waved her hand and said:

"Alright, that’s it for today!"

The twenty-four new disciples sitting opposite Xu Ziyun were now completely convinced of her abilities. Under Xu Ziyun’s guidance, they all clearly felt their progress. Later, when Xu Ziyun further explained things to them, they suddenly understood things they had long been unable to grasp, and their mental state improved.

Each person solemnly stood up from their chair, bowed to Xu Ziyun as if to a teacher, then orderly picked up their chairs and quietly left Xu Ziyun’s room. Even Xu Li, who was usually very close to Xu Ziyun, had no playful smile on her face and left Xu Ziyun’s room with the same respect.

Watching the departing figures of the new disciples, Xu Ziyun couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Their excessive respect made her feel uncomfortable. The relationship that was originally like friends seemed to have changed. However, Xu Ziyun knew that this situation was not something she could change. Once they had respect in their hearts, it would be difficult to return to the previous friendly relationship.

The candlelight flickered, and a figure flashed in the room. Xu Haobo appeared in front of Xu Ziyun. Xu Ziyun got off the bed, bowed deeply, and said softly:

"Second Uncle, you’re here!"

"I’ve been here for a while, hehe!"

Xu Haobo looked at Xu Ziyun with admiration. When he and the clan leader heard Xu Qi and others’ reports and learned that Xu Ziyun had stopped their conflict with Li Nu, they were already very impressed with her. He came this time to praise Xu Ziyun and to remind her again not to have any conflicts with the City Lord’s residence, the Xiao family, and the Wu family. Everything had to wait for the family to make a decision.

However, when he saw what Xu Ziyun was doing outside, his admiration grew even more. Such a talent, not only a genius in cultivation and talisman making but also an excellent mentor, was not just a matter of the family having a genius. It would benefit the family even more. As a result, Xu Haobo’s gaze towards Xu Ziyun was filled with nothing but admiration!
