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

80: Chapter 8 Sisters United, Twin Lotus BlossomsTime flew by, and another month passed.

The cooperation between Yifei Peak and the Tianyun Dynasty was quickly finalized through the efforts of the two princesses, Ji Yunyue and Princess.

Li Yifei showed enough ”sincerity”: the Tianyun Dynasty only needed to provide ten sets of ordinary foundation establishment pill Materials to exchange for one perfect quality foundation establishment pill produced by Yifei Peak.

In this transaction, Li Yifei only earned a ninety percent profit.

His move was more to reward the Tianyun Dynasty’s ”sensibility” and to bind them more deeply to his war chariot.

When the news reached the Tianyun Dynasty, the imperial Family was ecstatic.

To them, although ordinary foundation establishment pill Materials were precious, they were ultimately inanimate objects that could be collected with financial power.

But a perfect foundation establishment pill that could forge a High Grade dao base was a supreme immortal Opportunity that was hard to come by and enough to change a Genius’s fate!

The Tianyun imperial Family almost emptied the Alchemy Materials accumulated in the national treasury; subsequently, the emperor even turned his attention to the civil and military officials of the entire court.

An imperial edict was issued to ”collect” Materials from those wealthy ministers under various names and resources.

Soon, the first batch of flying boats fully loaded with foundation establishment pill Materials arrived at Yifei Peak in a grand manner.

Accompanying the flying boats were ten young ladies from the households of various ministers, meticulously selected by the Tianyun Dynasty and fully meeting Li Yifei’s requirements for Concubines.

A grand Dual Cultivation once again took place at Yifei Peak.

Under the nourishment of the Grand Ultimate Yin-Yang Dual Cultivation Secret Canon, the ten newly arrived female Cultivators all made progress in their cultivation and were overjoyed.

However, for Li Yifei, who was now in the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, the Primordial Yin Power provided by these ten girls, who were generally only in the middle or low stages of Qi Refining, was already a drop in the bucket.

After a bout of clouds and rain, although his magic power became increasingly solid, there was still some distance from the Bottleneck of Foundation Establishment Perfection.

The night was as cool as water, and the moonlight was like frost.

Li Yifei sat alone in the Star-Gazing Pavilion of the main peak, sipping Spiritual Tea and thinking about his future plans.

Just then, a maid came to report that Sixth Senior Sister Mu Qingyu and Seventh Senior Sister Mu Qingxue had come to visit together.

Li Yifei raised his eyebrows slightly and then stood up to welcome them.

Soon, two beautiful figures arrived slowly under the moonlight, like Fairies of the Moon Palace stepping onto the moon.

They were the twin Senior Sisters famous throughout the Sect.

Both were wearing the same style of light purple gauze dresses, with slender figures and graceful curves.

The moonlight cast a hazy halo over them, making them look even more elegant and beautiful, as if they were not Mortals.

The elder sister, Mu Qingyu, was still as gentle and moving as ever. A perfect smile played on her lips, her beautiful eyes were as bright as stars, and her temperament was as warm as jade, but deep in her eyes, there seemed to be a hidden trace of imperceptible determination.

The younger sister, Mu Qingxue, still had a cold expression. She silently followed half a step behind her sister, her ethereal eyes downcast, her long eyelashes casting faint shadows on her face. No emotion could be seen on her fair face, as if nothing in the world could cause a ripple in the lake of her heart.

With the same peerless beauty, one gentle as water and the other cold as ice, standing side by side, they formed a strong yet harmonious visual impact, enough to make any man lose his mind.

The two of them had long heard various rumors about Yifei Peak.

At first, they only treated them as gossip within the Sect and didn’t care, given their status as True Disciples.

It wasn’t until the news that Fourth Senior Sister Mu Xiaoyu and Fifth Senior Sister Chen Guoguo had successfully forged a First-Grade Dao Foundation arrived that a heavy stone was cast into their hearts.

That night, in the Listening to the Rain Pavilion where they lived, the elder sister Mu Qingyu finally made a decision.

”Xiaoxue, we can’t wait any longer,” Mu Qingyu said, looking at the moonlight outside the window, her tone more solemn than ever before.

Mu Qingxue sat to one side and didn’t speak, just listening quietly.

”Fourth Senior Sister and Fifth Senior Sister have both successfully established their foundations, and they are First-Grade Dao Foundations! This proves that Junior Brother indeed has Heaven-Defying means to change one’s fate.”

Mu Qingyu slowly analyzed, ”Look at Yifei Peak now. Originally, an ordinary Outer Sect Disciple could become his Dao Companion as long as her appearance was acceptable. But now, even the legitimate daughters sent by those small families have to go through layers of screening to become Concubines, and it’s as difficult as climbing to heaven.”

She turned her head to look at her sister, who looked exactly like her, a trace of struggle and determination flashing in her eyes:

”We both understand that as time goes on, Junior Brother’s requirements for Dao Companions will only get higher and higher. Our current cultivation at the Ninth Level of Qi Refining might still be considered an advantage, but if we delay any longer, once there are more and more Dao Companions at the Foundation Establishment Stage around him, our little advantage will vanish.”

Hearing this, a ripple finally appeared in Mu Qingxue’s cold eyes.

Although she was cold by nature, she was not ignorant of the ways of the world. What her sister said was exactly the faint worry in her heart. Who wouldn’t want the great dao of longevity?

A First-Grade Dao Foundation was the ultimate goal that all Qi Refining Cultivators dreamed of.

”But, Sister... we...” Her words carried a trace of hesitation, the last bit of reserve belonging to a young girl.

”There are no buts,” Mu Qingyu held her sister’s cool hand and said seriously.

”This is our only chance. Instead of being arranged by the Sect or Family to have some nonsensical Dao Companion in the future and having our path to the Dao cut off, it’s better to fight for it ourselves! Junior Brother, whether in talent, appearance, or character, is far beyond others. Moreover, we are sisters and can support each other in the future.”

Seeing the unquestionable determination in her sister’s eyes, Mu Qingxue was silent for a moment and finally nodded gently.

”Sister’s decision is my decision.”

...

Bringing his thoughts back to reality, Li Yifei looked at the pair of peerless twins with different charms before him and smiled gently, ”Two Senior Sisters visiting late at night, I wonder what important matter you have?”

The elder sister, Mu Qingyu, took a step forward, gave Li Yifei a graceful bow, and her voice was soft but clear: ”Junior Brother, we sisters have come to ask you for an Opportunity for a First-Grade Foundation Establishment.”

Her words were direct and frank, without any beating around the bush.

Li Yifei’s gaze drifted between the two sisters, finally landing on Mu Qingyu’s face, a playful curve appearing at the corner of his mouth: ”Oh? Does Senior Sister know that the Opportunities here are never given for free?”

”We naturally know.” Mu Qingyu raised her head to meet Li Yifei’s gaze, took a deep breath, and her fair face was tinged with a moving blush.

”Both my sister and I are at the Ninth Level of Qi Refining with Earthly Spiritual Roots. We are willing to become your Dao Companions like the other Senior Sisters, from now on being of one heart and one mind, exploring the great Dao together. We only ask that Junior Brother helps us forge a First-Grade Dao Foundation.”

Hearing this, Li Yifei was very satisfied.

What he wanted was this initiative and awareness.

He slowly stepped forward, reached out his hand, gently lifted Mu Qingyu’s chin, looked into her shy but determined eyes, and then looked at Mu Qingxue, who, although her head was lowered, had ears that were already completely red, and laughed loudly: ”Good! Since the two Senior Sisters have such determination, how could I, Li Yifei, not fulfill your wish?”

His tone changed, carrying an unquestionable confidence and dominance: ”As long as you become mine, a mere First-Grade Dao Foundation, I guarantee it will be within your reach!”

Getting his affirmative answer, Mu Qingyu and Mu Qingxue breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, feeling as if a heavy stone in their hearts had crashed to the ground.

The two sisters looked at each other and then bowed to Li Yifei together again. Their voices were soft but extremely solemn.

”Husband.”
