Often, because the durations of these two stages are relatively long, many individuals with lesser talent give up on Body Refining before achieving success; but Chunyu was different. Her innate talent was exceptional, and she did not waste much ti in either the Innate or Body Refining stages.
Body Refining is essentially a process of cleansing the body. Only after the body is cleansed can it be filled with Northern Spiritual Energy in the Dantian. Now, Chunyu has reached the pinnacle of the Body Refining realm, and Ling Zhenfei felt it was ti to guide her, to help her avoid unnecessary detours.
"Chunyu, do you always get up this early?"
Chunyu playfully walked up to Ling Zhenfei, and whispered in his ear, "Brother, after practicing the 'Flower Picking Under the Moon' cultivation technique, I cultivated all night and still feel exceptionally spirited. I don't need to sleep at all, so I ca out when I heard your voice."
"Not bad, your cultivation speed is very fast. If you keep cultivating at this pace, you might even catch up to your brother's realm," Ling Zhenfei said sincerely, his words heartfelt. His own talent was not very high, and he had taken many detours during his cultivation due to the lack of guidance. Given Chunyu's talent, it was entirely possible she could reach his level.
"That would be great, then in the future, I can protect brother and sister-in-law," Chunyu said with a smile.
Chunyu's words, however, shocked Ling Zhenfei; he realized she was right. He was often away from the village, and he had made quite a few enemies. If anyone sought revenge on his family, what would happen then?
If Chunyu could truly protect his family, that would be perfect. It seed that to facilitate her rapid growth, he should lend her so assistance.
"Chunyu, it's still early. Would you like to join your brother for a walk in the mountains? Consider it a morning exercise," Ling Zhenfei invited after considering her opinion. To his surprise, Chunyu was very excited, "Sure, I love being with brother. Let's go. Are we heading to Xi Shan or Nanshan?"
After thinking it over, Ling Zhenfei replied, "Let's go to Xi Shan. It's been a long ti since I've been there; I should visit."
The two of them, one after the other, set off towards Xi Shan. Both had excellent physical condition—Ling Zhenfei with high Spiritual Power, but still injured—hence, their speeds were fairly matched.
On the way, Ling Zhenfei's Divine Sense multi-tasked, with one part delving into the Heaven-Dropping Essence Marrow, searching for treasures that might aid Chunyu.
The pair quickly arrived at Xi Shan. The mountain now boasted a newly repaired wooden path, and foundations were evident on the cleared land atop the hill, indicating that construction would soon begin. Due to the terrain, erecting buildings here would not be an easy task.
Standing at the summit and looking down, the entirety of Xishan Manor lay outstretched before them. At the site of the Xishan Leisure Club, a very deep pit had been dug—it was the core area of the club.
The reason for the deep excavation was due to Chen Qian's grand plan in his design: he intended to construct an underwater restaurant and guest rooms. Once completed, guests could dine and sleep among the lake's fishes; the concept was almost science fiction in its novelty.
But the cost was also extraordinarily high. If not for Ling Zhenfei's recent investnt of three hundred million, relying solely on Xishan Manor's revenue-generating ability to support such a massive project would have been quite the challenge.
Ling Zhenfei glanced at Chunyu and felt it might be ti to share a secret with her.
"Chunyu, do you really think of as your brother?" Ling Zhenfei asked seriously, looking at Chunyu.
Chunyu looked up at Ling Zhenfei, her eyes full of determination as she replied, "Of course, brother is my only relative in this world, and sister-in-law is the only family I have. I consider you my real brother."
Ling Zhenfei saw Chunyu's sincerity and nodded, "We siblings have no secrets from each other anymore. Now that you've cultivated Northern Spiritual Energy and beco a Spiritual Cultivator, you must have noticed that you are different from the world around you."
"This world is incredibly wondrous, filled with many things unknown to us. Do not try to comprehend this world with conventional wisdom. What we do not know is simply what we have not seen."
"In the ti to co, you'll et many, many bizarre people and countless Bizarre Techniques with strange capabilities. You must always be on guard. While it is not necessary to harbor intentions to harm others, it is essential to guard against those who do."
Ling Zhenfei caressed Chunyu's hair gently and said, "That's why you must continue to advance so that no one can defeat you. To help you improve rapidly, I will give you so things to aid you."
Chunyu had been listening to Ling Zhenfei very attentively, not knowing what he intended to give her. Then she saw a bracelet suddenly appear in his hands.
The bracelet was simple in design, entirely white, looking as if it were made of silver, with several small bells attached. It was clearly designed for a woman.
This item didn't look very remarkable, but when it first appeared, it shone with a light that was out of the ordinary. Soon after, the glow disappeared, and the bracelet looked very ordinary.
Ling Zhenfei lifted the bracelet and dangled it in front of Chunyu, saying, "This bracelet is a very precious treasure, but it's not very useful now. It's a Raw Treasure of Heaven Rank."
"Brother, what does Raw Treasure an?" Chunyu asked, puzzled.
Ling Zhenfei explained, "Raw Treasure ans that this item has reached the quality of Heaven Rank, but it is yet an unrefined treasure. Its uses are entirely up to your own Refining."
Chunyu held the bracelet in her hands, a look of great fondness in her eyes. She then carefully put it on her wrist, and it fit perfectly and looked beautiful.
"This bracelet originally belonged to a cultivator from Ancient Tis with great spiritual powers. After he fell, this owner-recognized item was completely forgotten after being sealed for thousands of years, and its abilities vanished, turning it into a Raw Treasure."
"Although it is a Raw Treasure, its quality remains, and it's easier for you to control. Once you've refined it properly, it can certainly beco your Life-bound Magical Treasure."
Under Ling Zhenfei's guidance, Chunyu slowly infused so Northern Spiritual Energy into the bracelet, and her face imdiately lit up with shock.
"How magical, Brother! I can feel that this small bracelet, particularly one of the bells, contains an incredibly large space. Can it really hold things inside?" she asked in amazent.
Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "Of course, this is a treasure with its own independent space, capable of storing plenty of items."
At that mont, Chunyu curiously asked, "If one bell is just for storing items, what are the functions of the other bells?"
Ling Zhenfei shook his head and said, "This is an unrefined treasure. To develop the functions of the other bells, you must put in the effort. Use a drop of your blood to claim ownership and then wear it every day."
"As your power grows, the bracelet will gradually unlock the spaces in the other bells. How you refine this treasure is up to you," he continued.
Overjoyed, Chunyu stroked the bells and, unable to wait, imdiately bit her finger and let a drop of blood fall onto the bracelet. After emitting a white light, the bracelet successfully recognized her as its owner.
