Chapter 1917
"Do you know that among the great tribulations of the immortal path, the 'tribulation of love' is the most difficult to overcome?" Chen Xuan sighed, but his tone was firm. "But you don't need to be afraid. I will accompany you and we will overcome this tribulation together."
"So what if we can't make it?" Qiu Zixian snuggled closer to him, her voice carrying a hint of determination. "I have no regrets about being with you for this long. At least I've lived for myself once."
"Silly girl, don't say such discouraging things." Chen Xuan gently pinched her nose, his tone slightly reproachful. "We still have to see all the stars together, and become immortals together. How can we give up so soon?"
Qiu Zixian smiled and nodded, the tear stains at the corners of her eyes still wet, but she looked relieved.
After a brief moment of tenderness, Chen Xuan got up and left—there were still many things to take care of in the outside world: although Bai Li was in charge of cultivating the spirit fields, he needed to compile a list of medicinal herbs needed for alchemy; and he should also fulfill his promise to give Tianxing the protective divine power.
Before leaving, he specially took the Nine Sons Fire Cauldron from his immortal abode and placed it in the center of the eight thousand li medicine garden.
"Master! We're rich now!" The little cauldron's excited voice came from inside the cauldron as soon as it landed. "With such a large spirit field, I can decipher the ancient immortal pill formula in the core restriction within a hundred years. Then we can refine pills of the True Immortal level!"
"I placed you here to help with alchemy, but you must not reveal your aura casually," Chen Xuan instructed. "This second cave is full of hidden talents; it would be troublesome if the other elders took notice of you."
"Don't worry, Master! Right now, all I see are the medicinal herbs and the pill formulas. I can't see anything else!" The little cauldron patted its chest to assure him, and the flame runes on its body even brightened a bit.
Chen Xuan smiled and shook his head, then turned into a streak of light and flew towards Tianxing's residence.
After becoming disciples of their respective masters, Yu'er, Piaoxue, and the others returned one after another a month ago and are currently in seclusion in the Ninefold Tower of Absolute Sorrow. The Daoist scriptures and resources of the Holy Land offer limited improvement for Chen Xuan and Qiu Zixian, but they represent an immense opportunity for them.
Ignoring the protective array outside the mansion, Chen Xuan teleported directly to Tianxing's cultivation chamber.
"Xing'er." After landing, Chen Xuan gently awakened Tianxing, who was meditating, with his divine sense.
Tianxing suddenly opened her eyes and saw Chen Xuan. Her eyes instantly welled up with tears, and her beautiful body became slightly hot: "Husband... you've finally come to see me?"
Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Chen Xuan had come to impart supernatural powers, but seeing the undisguised longing in Tianxing's eyes and her increasingly proud figure due to her cultivation of the Great Dao of Gods and Demons, the flame in his heart was ignited.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the inner room became scorching, and the thought of imparting knowledge and teaching was long gone.
The debate, which lasted for nearly two hours, finally came to an end as the sky began to lighten.
Cultivators are naturally full of energy, especially Tianxing, who mainly cultivates the path of gods and demons. Even after experiencing many intense battles, he is still as tight as this time. At this moment, his face is still rosy, and he is lying in Chen Xuan's arms, humming, wanting to go again.
"Little glutton, I didn't come here just for this." Chen Xuan pinched her cheek and smiled helplessly.
"Hmph, my husband is the worst." Tianxing felt Chen Xuan's large hands roaming over her body, but she pouted in dissatisfaction, "He clearly enjoys it too, yet he says such high-sounding things."
Chen Xuan leaned close to her ear, his warm breath brushing against her earlobe: "Stop fooling around. I'll teach you a protective divine power, the Six Revolutions Golden Form—this is a top-tier protective technique that can withstand even a true immortal. You'd better remember it."
Upon hearing that it was a top-tier protective divine power, Tianxing immediately perked up and quickly wrapped her arms around Chen Xuan's hand, saying sweetly, "Husband, I can't concentrate on memorizing the incantation like this!"
"If you can't even handle this little bit of interference, how will you become a powerful Celestial Ancestor in the future?" Chen Xuan shook off her hand and continued to roam over her body. "Look at Zi Mo, even when he was beaten half to death in the Trial Tower, his Dao heart remained clear."
"Who says I can't!" Tianxing puffed out her chest defiantly, her eyes hardening. "Husband, please continue. I'm sure I'll remember it!"
And so, under Chen Xuan's special teaching that "single-handedly tempered her Dao heart," it took Tianxing three whole sessions to memorize the key techniques of the Six Revolutions Golden Form. Chen Xuan flipped his hand and took out a storage ring, handing it to her: "Inside are the Geng gold ore and body-tempering liquid needed for the first three revolutions of cultivation. Refine them slowly, don't rush."
Tianxing accepted the ring, her arm still trembling slightly, her voice weak but full of joy: "Thank you, my husband... I will definitely cultivate diligently and never let you down again. I will protect you!"
Chen Xuan couldn't help but smile at her appearance—this girl, even though she was so tired she could barely keep her eyes open, was still thinking about protecting him. He leaned down and placed a light kiss on her forehead: "Rest well, I'll go check on Yu'er and the others."
