Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1149: The Celestial Lake

In the Lunar Garden, Zhang Fei [5] saw so many kinds of herbs and plants that have many benefits for dual cultivation, and all of them are not yet available in the Sealed World Pearl. He crouched in front of one and plucked it down to its roots. ”Where did you get all this? This Yang Flame Orchid is difficult to find, and they usually grow in scorching hot areas.”

”Hehe.” Qing Qiu’er giggled. ”This sect is a dual cultivation sect, remember? We often travel to all domains, except for demon domains, to look for herbs or plants suitable for dual cultivation. You are not wrong about this Yang Flame Orchid, but the soil of this garden is different from the usual ones. I don’t know how or where it came from, but it was already here long before the Sun Moon Sect founded their sect. This garden is one of the reasons they keep trying to seize this floating plateau from us, especially since we can grow all kinds of herbs or plants here, including those that should only grow in places with extreme hot or extreme cold weather.”

Zhang Fei [5] stored the Yang Flame Orchid in the system’s inventory before plucking another herb not far away. ”This Yin Fragrance Lily has a high concentration of Yin Qi, and it can be used to concoct pills that can enhance women’s Yin Qi, increasing the amount of Yin Qi they produce when dual cultivating. That Vermilion Ginseng has effects like sex drugs for men, but they can’t consume it directly, or their dick will be crippled. The Winter Essence Lily also has a similar effect, but it can only be consumed by women. However, its effects are too strong, and their nerves will become overly sensitive, which results in endless orgasms.”

”You’re right.” Qing Qiu’er squatted beside Zhang Fei [5]. ”Feiling once ingested an excessive amount of this Winter Lily, and she immediately experienced an orgasm, even though I only touched her lightly. Moreover, each of her orgasms lasted quite a long time, and she almost died due to Qi depletion at that time. Can you concoct pills using it? Many of our female disciples are physically weak, and their partners are dissatisfied with them.”

”I have several prescription pills based on this Winter Lily.” Zhang Fei [5] replied with a nod. ”However, such pills are not the ultimate solution, and they will become dependent on their effects if they are used long-term. The best solution is for them to learn the body cultivation path, and their physiques will become stronger as their body cultivation improves.”

Qing Qiu’er tilted her head to him. ”Do you have a short-term solution for them? Not all cultivators have talent in the body cultivation path, and increasing our body cultivation level is more difficult than increasing our normal cultivation. I don’t want them to have partner issues, but I also don’t want them to rely on this herb forever. If you have one, you can tell me.”

”Hmm?” Zhang Fei [5] considered and calculated several things for quite a while before asking her. ”How many are our disciples in total?”

”The number of our disciples is still not as large as the Sun Moon Sect, which reaches almost ten thousand, but there are still quite a lot of them.” Zhang Fei [5] was a bit surprised to hear the number of disciples in that sect from Qing Qiu’er. ”The total number of our disciples is only three thousand, and we deliberately accept more female disciples to avoid undesirable things, with 1600 female disciples and 1400 male disciples. Like sects in general, we divide them into outer, inner, and core disciples.”

Zhang Fei [5] then activated the natural awareness ability, checking the Qi strength of the female disciples. ”Does our sect use sect points to buy items in the Treasure Hall?”

”Yes.” Qing Qiu’er nodded slightly. ”Sect points are the primary currency, but they can also use equal exchange to purchase rare items.”

”So, they can’t use jewels to buy items?”

”If we allow our disciples to buy items using jewels, their strength will become unbalanced.” Zhang Fei [5] raised an eyebrow at Qing Qiu’er. ”In fact, we have one group of ten disciples whose statuses are slightly above those of the core disciples because they come from exceptional backgrounds, and their talents surpass the rest.”

”Ten disciples in a special group?” Qing Qiu’er touched Zhang Fei’s forehead and shared with him the identities of those disciples, who were divided into five male and five female disciples. ”Are they partnered with each other?”

Qing Qiu’er explained it to him. ”They met in this sect, and they decided to become dual cultivation partners because of their similar backgrounds. Yao Shiyan and Fei Yinglin were the best male and female disciples among them, and they had the longest-lasting relationship. They came from the renowned Yao and Fei Clans in the Sky Pillar Domain, but their parents banished them from their clans because of their choice to become dual cultivators.”

”I see.” Zhang Fei [5] was not surprised by that, especially since the reputation of dual cultivators in the Paradise Realm was terrible. He then took out several storage rings and handed them to Qing Qiu’er. ”I don’t need sect points, so you can ask the disciples to exchange them for equivalent items. After they swallow them, their foundation and physique will become stronger. Even so, they still have to become body cultivators to achieve true physical strength, and they will no longer be dependent on these herbs.”

”Alright, I will arrange it according to your wishes.”

After Zhang Fei [5] picked enough herbs and plants, Qing Qiu’er took him to see the other areas, starting with the Blossoming Hall, where they found many disciples practicing charm techniques, and some of them performing small ceremonies as dual cultivation partners.

They didn’t linger there, and Qing Qiu’er led Zhang Fei [5] to the Silent Pavilion. There weren’t many disciples there, and those who were there were doing nothing but meditating silently. Then, she led him to the last area, the Celestial Lake.

The Celestial Lake is the most sacred place in the Moonlit Passion Temple. It stretches vast and tranquil, its surface smooth as glass, reflecting the twin moons. The water is no ordinary water; it is said to be condensed from the pure yin and yang essence of the twin moons and suns of the Twin Flames Main Domain, balancing yin and yang in perfect harmony. The mist that rose from the lake carried a faint, sweet yet intoxicating fragrance, said to awaken hidden and dormant desires.

At the center of the lake lies a small island with four solid wooden bridges spanning four different sides, where many lotuses bloom in endless cycles. However, there is only one lotus that stands out as the most precious among all of them. The Moon Lotus, the same color as the moon, blooms once every hundred years, emitting the finest fragrance. It will help cultivators achieve breakthroughs, especially female dual cultivators.

At night, the lake becomes even more wondrous with the reflections of the two moons overlapping, turning the water into a sea of shimmering silver light.

Zhang Fei [5] squatted by the lakeside as he sensed something peculiar about it. He dipped his hand into the water to feel the difference. ”The ones who benefit most from this lake are the women.”

”Yes.” Qing Qiu’er squatted next to him. ”Actually, there are two celestial lakes in this domain, and the other one is in the Blazing Union Sect, which is the second strongest dual cultivation sect after the Sun-Moon Sect. If the lake in our sect produces more Yin Qi, the one in that sect produces more Yang Qi. Therefore, we often exchange disciples with them, but each of us only sends our best disciples.”

”Do the elders of both sects do this too often?”

Qing Qiu’er shook her head. ”Our sect has more female elders, and their sect has more male elders. In contrast to our sect, the male elders of that sect hold more important roles, while their female elders merely serve as assistants; therefore, we never exchange elders.”

”I see.” Zhang Fei [5] then summoned Yan Jinwu and Sima Huiqing out of the training space. ”Try both of you to enter this lake and absorb the Yin Qi in it.”

”There are no male elders or disciples coming here, and a concealment formation covers this area, so you don’t need to worry about them.” After Qing Qiu’er said that, Yan Jinwu and Sima Huiqing swiftly took off their dresses and jumped directly into the lake. She was quite jealous of their beauty and sexiness. ”Try absorbing the Yin Qi now.”

Yan Jinwu and Sima Huiqing closed their eyes and absorbed the Yin Qi within. Their expressions changed as the Yin Qi began to flow through their bodies, and they absorbed it even faster.

Zhang Fei [5] seriously observed the flow of Yin Qi within their bodies, discovering that the Yin Qi from the lake not only strengthened theirs but also increased the quality and quantity. ”If female cultivators cultivate in this lake, their cultivation will skyrocket.”

”That’s right,” Qing Qiu’er replied with a nod. ”The Yin Qi in this lake is one of the reasons my cultivation reached this stage so quickly, and its effects are even more significant when combined with the Forbidden Lotus Codex. Otherwise, I would still need thousands of years to reach this level, especially my soul cultivation level.”
