Cultivation: Starting with a Dual Cultivation Technique at the Immortal Rank

28: Chapter 28 The plan to win the heart of a beautiful woman is initially successful.For the next month, Yifei Peak truly lived up to the phrase ”nightly songs and revelry.”

Li Yifei also personally experienced the formidable power of the Grand Ultimate Yin-Yang Dual Cultivation Secret Canon.

This Cultivation Technique was both extremely gentle and overbearingly powerful when guiding and refining primordial yin energy. Not only did it avoid damaging the Foundation of the young women experiencing intimacy for the first time, but it also helped them consolidate their cultivation and cleanse their spiritual power. Li Yifei himself, however, became the greatest beneficiary.

In just one short month, nourished by the primordial yin of over a dozen newly entered Concubines, the magical power in his body surged forward. He broke through the shackles of the Qi Refining seventh layer in one fell swoop, steadily stepping into the Qi Refining eighth layer, and was not far from the Qi Refining ninth layer.

At the same time, his Body Refining cultivation did not lag behind. Relying on the generous monthly resource allocation of a True Disciple and the Medicinal Pills he refined himself, he nurtured his blood and Qi while secretly accumulating strength, steadily advancing toward the threshold of Body Refining Foundation Establishment.

Of course, to the outside world, he still maintained the appearance of the Qi Refining Fifth Layer, remaining low-key and restrained.

However, the tree craves stillness, but the wind will not subside.

The sudden appearance of the only male Disciple in the Profound Ice Palace, who was also an Alchemy Genius, was in itself a major event capable of causing waves within the Sect.

Moreover, this newly promoted Senior Brother Li had expanded his number of Concubines to a staggering figure within a single month, making his reputation soar throughout the entire Sect.

Whenever male Disciples mentioned him, it was always with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

“Have you heard? That Li Yifei’s Yifei Peak is almost running out of room! It’s full of young and beautiful Junior Sisters!”

“Sigh, comparing oneself to others is just infuriating! While I’m still running around for a single Qi Condensation Pill, he’s already got beauties in his arms, enjoying the blessing of many wives.”

“Who told him to be the True Disciple handpicked by the Ice Sword Fairy? He just has good luck!”

As for the female Disciples, especially those Outer Sect Disciples with decent looks, they felt more envy, jealousy, and regret.

“I really didn’t expect that the once-obscure Senior Brother Li would suddenly soar to the heavens!”

“Yeah, if I had known he had this kind of potential, I should have gone when he said he was looking for a Dao Companion! Now, even the threshold to become a Concubine has become high.”

“Exactly! Back then, who could have imagined an Outer Sect Disciple would be favored by an Elder? We truly missed a heavenly Opportunity!”

The speakers were careless, but the listener was attentive.

The discussions among the Sect Disciples quickly reached the ears of the small families and minor powers that survived by depending on the Qingyun Sect.

The heads of these powers were all shrewd individuals. What did a newly promoted True Disciple, highly valued by his master and clearly ”fond of beauty,” signify?

He was simply a golden thigh to cling to!

Thus, a ”beauty-offering” operation centered around Li Yifei quietly unfolded in every corner.

They scoured their respective spheres of influence for young, beautiful women who met Li Yifei’s aesthetic, had clean Family backgrounds, and possessed Spiritual Roots, hoping to climb the social ladder through them.

During this month, visitors to Yifei Peak were constant. They were managers sent by these small families who, under the guise of ”congratulating Senior Brother on his promotion,” delivered various special ”congratulatory gifts.”

At this moment, inside the main hall of Yifei Peak, Li Yifei looked at the several beauties newly delivered before him, the smile at the corner of his mouth deepening.

Luo Lingxi, acting as the current ”Grand Housekeeper” of Yifei Peak, was introducing the backgrounds of these newcomers to him.

“Husband, these three were sent by the Wang Family of Qingyang City. The Wang Family is a cultivation Family subordinate to our Sect, primarily focused on commerce.”

The leader was a woman named Wang Yuyan, a daughter of the Wang Family’s branch line. She was nineteen years old, with a Pseudo Spirit Root and at the Qi Refining second layer.

She wore a moon-white formal robe, with a graceful figure and a gentle, quiet temperament, possessing the demeanor of a daughter from a prestigious Family. Her features were as exquisite as a painting, with a hint of scholarly air between her brows, though deep in her eyes, there was a trace of anxiety and unease about the future.

Beside her were two personal maids, also Cultivators trained by the Wang Family since childhood. One was named Chun Lan and the other Qiu Ju, both seventeen or eighteen years old, with Pseudo Spirit Roots and at the Qi Refining first layer. They had delicate features and slender figures, standing obediently behind Wang Yuyan with lowered eyes.

“This is the youngest daughter of the Zhang Family Head from Linhai Town, Zhang Qiaoqian,” Luo Lingxi pointed to another young girl.

Although Zhang Qiaoqian was eighteen, she looked only fifteen. She wore her hair in twin buns and had a cute baby face with large, round eyes that radiated the innocence of someone who hadn’t seen the world.

She wore a pink short skirt, revealing her fair and slender calves. Her petite and exquisite frame made her look like a delicate porcelain doll. She had truly been pampered by her Family while growing up, and now she was looking around curiously, full of fresh interest in everything.

“And this one,” Luo Lingxi introduced last, “is Zhou Zhiqing from the Hundred Herbs Hall. The Hundred Herbs Hall is the largest supplier of medicinal herbs at the foot of our Sect’s mountain. Miss Zhou has been proficient in pharmacology since childhood and has considerable insight into the cultivation of spiritual plants.”

Zhou Zhiqing was about eighteen, wearing an emerald-green silk dress that complemented her snow-white skin. Her features were elegant; though not stunningly beautiful, she had a unique, refined temperament, like an orchid in a secluded valley. Her figure wasn’t voluptuous, but it was well-proportioned and graceful, giving off a very comfortable feeling. Her gaze toward Li Yifei was calm, carrying the characteristic serenity and observation of an alchemist.

In addition to these new ”gifts,” Li Yifei took the Opportunity to officially introduce the Concubines he had previously taken into his chambers to the new sisters.

Among those who had entered with Tang Linger and the Su Sisters were several other women of outstanding beauty.

One was named Zhao Feiyan, with a light and graceful posture. She was especially skilled in dance, with a water-snake waist that seemed to have no bones; her dancing was incredibly seductive and soul-stirring.

One was named Qin Yue, who was introverted and taciturn, yet possessed a delicate face that evoked pity and a pair of straight, long, beautiful legs. She always cultivated quietly by herself, like a lone orchid in a valley.

There was also one named Zhu Xi, who was lively and had a bit of a heroic spirit. She enjoyed practicing with weapons, had a hot figure, and was full of youthful vitality.

Looking at the assembly of women before him, each with their own unique charms, a grander plan began to take shape in Li Yifei’s mind.

Individually, these small families and powers had negligible strength. But what if they could be united using marriage ties as a link to form a community of interests with himself at the core?

He would provide Medicinal Pills, Cultivation Techniques, and protection within the Sect; they, in turn, would provide him with a continuous stream of talent (beauties), resources, and external intelligence.

This would not only greatly accelerate his progress in ”many children, many blessings,” but would also build a vast network of relationships spanning inside and outside the Sect before his own wings were fully grown.

By then, he, Li Yifei, would not just be the master of Yifei Peak, but the uncrowned king of a massive Alliance behind the scenes.

At this thought, Li Yifei’s gaze toward the women became deeper and more burning.

All of this was only the beginning.
