Cultivating Immortality, One Wish a Day - Chapter 9 - A Wish For You

“Such Rapid Absorption!”

Chen Fan’s eyes showed amazement. With a Three-Yuan Pill in his stomach, in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he felt that all the energy he had expended today had been fully restored.

Not only his energy but also his mental focus and the inner strength in his dantian, which hadn’t fully recovered, swiftly returned to their original state. Moreover, at this moment, there was still a lot of medicinal power from the Three-Yuan Pill stored in his body, not completely depleted.

“Too powerful!”

A bright light shone in Chen Fan’s eyes. With such medicinal assistance, his cultivation speed could undoubtedly be greatly enhanced.

Chen Fan immediately activated the Violet Polar True Cloud Technique. As for sleep…

He was full of energy at the moment, who needs sleep?

“This is impossible… How could someone silently take away the Three-Yuan Yang Furnace from me?”

At the same time, in Blackwater City, Sikong Kai, who had been in seclusion for a day and a night, suddenly let out an angry roar. He had previously suffered significant injuries in the struggle for the Three-Yuan Yang Furnace.

This time, having obtained the Three-Yuan Pill, he precisely used its medicinal power to recover from his injuries during his seclusion. However, he never thought that when he finished his seclusion, the Three-Yuan Yang Furnace, which he had placed in his room, would unexpectedly be missing.

He searched frantically in the room, but the Three-Yuan Yang Furnace seemed to be non-existent from beginning to end.

“Too powerful!”

A day later, Chen Fan exclaimed again. Previously, he needed to drink five pots of Ten Complete Health Soup every day, and he always drank his fill.

However, after obtaining the Three-Yuan Yang Furnace, just one Three-Yuan Pill sustained his cultivation for a whole day. In addition to practicing the Violet Polar True Cloud Technique, he also cultivated the Light Shadow Soaring Sky Step.

In this world, martial arts are also graded. The Purple Extreme Sword Technique he previously learned was just an ordinary sword technique without even a visualization.

Therefore, it was just a basic sword technique that didn’t enhance his strength at all. But the Light Shadow Soaring Sky Step was different.

Once he mastered it, it would definitely significantly boost his strength.

Cultivate!

Chen Fan focused his mind and devoted himself entirely to cultivation.

“I wish to permanently improve a bit of my martial aptitude.”

At the same time, he returned to his previous state. He started using his wishes every day to enhance his martial aptitude, aiming to cultivate to the Innate Realm at the fastest speed.

“Master, Miss He Yun is looking for you outside.”

This day, just as Chen Fan finished practicing the Light Shadow Soaring Sky Step in the gap between the main room and the rear-cloak room, Zhang Yi called out to him.

“I know.”

Chen Fan wiped his hands and walked out.

“Sister Xiao Yun, it’s been a while. Why did you come to find me?”

Upon reaching the door, Chen Fan immediately saw He Yun standing there.

“I’m leaving Whitestone City.”

He Yun spoke softly.

“Leaving Whitestone City?”

Chen Fan raised an eyebrow. “Because of the Blood Blade Martial Club?”

Although he hadn’t gone out these days, he instructed Zhang Yi and Zhang De to keep an eye on the situation outside. Therefore, he knew that not long ago, after Iron Body Martial Club closed its doors, the martial clubs in Whitestone City, including the Purple Extreme Martial Club, shut down, too.

At this point, the Blood Blade Martial Club had become a force on the same level as the Black Tiger Gang and the Crimson Blood Gang in Whitestone City.

“What else can we do? they are too ruthless,” He Yun said with a low tone. “In these days, several martial artists who closed themselves early in the martial clubs were ambushed.”

“Is that so?” Chen Fan exclaimed. “Where are you planning to go?”

“To Qingyang County first. If it doesn’t work out there, we’ll look for another place.”

After saying this, she looked at Chen Fan expectantly. “I came here this time to ask if you want to join us?”

Now, in the Purple Extreme Martial Club, there were only a few disciples left. Among all the disciples, Chen Fan, the oldest in age, had the best relationship with her.

Although Chen Fan was older in age, he looked young, appearing to be in his twenties. Plus, Chen Fan always bought her various snacks. Unknowingly, she had developed some ambiguous feelings toward Chen Fan.

Chen Fan was momentarily surprised. However, he shook his head and said, “I’ll pass. It’s good for me to stay in Whitestone City. The Blood Blade Martial Club is powerful, and I’ll just avoid conflicts with them.”

“I’m a cultivator in my thirties. I don’t think they will target me, right?”

He truly didn’t want to leave Whitestone City. Traveling to other cities would take too much time, and he had to carry the Three-Yuan Yang Furnace. If something unexpected happened on the way, it would be troublesome.

He Yun’s expression darkened. Her grandfather had already packed up everything and was ready to leave soon. She came suddenly before leaving.

However, she didn’t expect that Chen Fan would refuse without any hesitation.

“Sorry, it was abrupt. I hope we’ll have a chance to meet again.”

He Yun tugged at her clothes, turned around, and was about to leave.

“Wait.”

Chen Fan stopped He Yun.

“What is it?”

“Wish you a safe journey!”

Chen Fan paused, waved to her, and made his wish for the day.

“He can only do this.”

He could sense a hint of affection from He Yun, but in this life, he had already decided to focus on the path of cultivation. Unless there was a woman who could make him live off her, he didn’t want romantic affairs to distract his energy.

“Thank you!” He Yun smiled.

Afterward, she turned and left.

“In this life, I’ve committed to the path of cultivation and don’t want romantic entanglements. Farewell, we may never meet again, each finding our own paths in the martial world.”

After He Yun left, Chen Fan looked at her departing figure for a while, whispered to himself, and closed the door.

“Several martial artists from a few martial clubs have left Whitestone City. Inform Tianyun Stronghold.”

In the Blood Blade Martial Club, a bald martial artist, upon receiving news of several martial clubs leaving, smiled coldly.

They didn’t aim to be the only martial club in Whitestone City. However, Chen Fan was oblivious to all this.

After He Yun left, he immersed himself in cultivation again.

Besides cultivation, he used the Three-Yuan Yang Furnace to refine Three-Yuan Pills.

Previously, due to the influx of many external martial artists, it was challenging to find various spirit herbs in Whitestone City. However, with those martial artists leaving, the herb market had recovered.

“Did they say they found the Three-Yuan Yang Furnace?”

One day, just after Chen Fan finished cultivation, he received surprising news.

“Yes.”

Zhang Yi excitedly spoke, “It’s rumored that when Sikong Kai escaped last time, he threw the Three-Yuan Yang Furnace on the way and it was picked up by a beggar. A few days ago, a martial artist recognized the Three-Yuan Yang Furnace in the hands of that beggar. During a struggle, it was taken by Zhang An, the White Dragon of Qingyang County!”

Chen Fan, seeing Zhang Yi’s sincere expression, couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

He didn’t know if there were two identical Three-Yuan Yang Furnaces or if someone was plotting something in the shadows.

But all of this was irrelevant to him.

At the moment, he just wanted to quietly cultivate.

“The cultivation of the Moving Qi Realm mainly focuses on two aspects: strengthening one’s internal qi and opening up the meridians with the internal qi. Then, after all eight extraordinary meridians are connected, compressing the internal qi can advance to the Condensing Qi Realm.”

“Because I have been continuously enhancing my martial aptitude, I don’t need to infuse internal qi. The eight extraordinary meridians are naturally in a connected state.”

“So now, I just need to wait for my internal qi to reach a certain level, and I can start advancing to the Condensing Qi Realm.”

“With the assistance of Three-Yuan Pills and my surpassing martial aptitude, this process might only take two or three months.”

Chen Fan’s mood surged with excitement.
