Longevity Fairy: Sister, Please Wait A Little Longer

Chapter 6 006: One-Star Favorability and Your Dao Companion's Delight

Ning Wanqiu still wanted to comfort her sister.

They had grown up together, and later, Nangong Li accompanied her in joining the Azure Cloud Sect.

Ning Wanqiu knew that the reason Li was so diligent in her cultivation was primarily for her, and secondly, for revenge.

In the blink of an eye, three thousand years had passed. One of them ascended to the position of the Azure Cloud Sect's leader, while the other took charge of the outer sect. In the entire Da Zhou Empire, a mere stomp of their feet would cause a great commotion.

However, they were still far from being able to destroy Buddhism.

Sighing softly, Ning Wanqiu's delicate jade fingers flipped to the next page, where two sentences were written:

[Three million celestial sword immortals in the sky, they must lower their heads when they meet me; Sword Qi spans thirty thousand miles, a single sword's radiance chills the nineteen continents!]

In an instant, a sword cry soared into the sky!

Ning Wanqiu felt a flash of lightning in her mind, and a series of things surged crazily in her sea of consciousness, triggered by the things she saw at the entrance of the Azure Cloud Sect.

"Disciple, what do you want to learn?"

"Of course, I want to learn the most powerful techniques, Master."

"The strongest technique in our Azure Cloud Sect is naturally the Sword Dao. Our founding ancestor, Li Qingyun, created the Azure Cloud Sword Art, which once killed one hundred thousand sword cultivators who dared not draw their swords."

"Master, I want to learn!"

"Haha, that's too far away for you. Moreover, throughout the generations, only male cultivators have been able to cultivate the Azure Cloud Sword Art to its peak. It would be better for you, a girl, to learn some spells, or let me teach you the Alchemy Technique."

However, in the end, Ning Wanqiu still picked up the sword and went through all kinds of hardships to reach where she was today.

Under the pavilion, which had been scarred by countless Sword Intents, Ning Wanqiu's eyes shone brightly. "I understand now. I understand what I lack!"

At this moment, Nangong Li had already left the pavilion and was floating above the undulating lake.

Her Nascent Soul was already close to the Late Stage, but she still found it difficult to resist Miss Qiu, who was one realm higher.

"The Son of Heaven."

Nangong Li muttered these four words again.

Cultivators contend with the heavens, the earth, and other people, but whether they are Human Immortals, demons, birds, beasts, insects, or fish, they all operate under the laws of the heavens.

Therefore, nothing is more fortunate or miraculous than being favored by the heavens.

That Chu Changge, who was only at the third level of Qi Refining, was able to affect a Nascent Soul cultivator and a Soul Formation cultivator. It was simply unbelievable.

Thinking about how she had not only doubted him but also planned to expel the child from the Azure Cloud Sect, a blush of shame appeared on Nangong Li's face beneath her light veil.

"Dominance."

The white-robed fairy in the pavilion held the Rainbow Sword in her hand, and her skirt danced in the wind. "The Azure Cloud Sword Art is the most domineering sword art in the world. What I lack is that air of dominance that looks down upon the heavens and the earth!"

After saying these words, the white figure disappeared into thin air, leaving behind two beautiful and crisp sentences: "Li, I'm going into seclusion. I will definitely come out within three months. The day I come out will be the day I fight Lin Wushuang!"

"Oh, by the way, that Chu child has helped me so much. Take care of him for me during this time. As I said before, don't interfere with him. Let him develop freely. In the future, Chu Changge will definitely be the strongest genius of our Azure Cloud Sect!"

The wind stopped, and the water surface returned to calm.

Nangong Li bowed and said, "The day Miss comes out of seclusion will be the day she becomes a Soul Refining cultivator."

"Ding~"

Notification: Your Dao Companion, Ning Wanqiu, has increased her favorability towards you. The current favorability is one star.

"Ding~"

Notification: Your Dao Companion, Ning Wanqiu, is delighted. Reward: [Fragment of the Heavenly Origin Star Stone] *1.

[Fragment of the Heavenly Origin Star Stone]: An ancient fragment of a star stone that can enhance the level of techniques, spells, Law Weapons, etc.

...

Lying on the bed, Chu Bai was full of question marks as he tried to move his body.

What's going on with this sudden increase in favorability?

And Sect Master Ning is able to give rewards just because he's pleased?

"Wait a moment, didn't they say that being named as a Dao companion wouldn't be affected? It seems that's not entirely true, I have to be careful."

"What if the favorability inexplicably reaches four stars, and Sect Master Ning holds a sword to my neck and forces me to confess? As the wife of the sect master, I would be exposed as his Dao companion."

Chu Bai smiled and thought that reaching four stars and holding a sword were both possible, but by that time, it would be the sect master himself holding the sword and beheading him.

"No rush, it's only one star of favorability. Maybe Sect Master Ning was moved by the loyalty and righteousness of the Chu family, and that's why he has a tiny bit of favorability towards me, as the only descendant of the Chu family. It's the kind of favor elders have for juniors."

After consoling himself, Chu Bai took out a fragment of the Heavenly Transcendence Star Stone from the system space, which he didn't know where it was located.

It was a black irregularly shaped stone, hard in texture, and looked ordinary without any spiritual energy circulating inside or outside.

"This thing can actually upgrade Law Weapons?"

Chu Bai felt deeply incredulous.

"Ding~"

Prompt: Please select a target to use the Heavenly Transcendence Star Stone.

Chu Bai had nothing valuable except for the Innate Cave Mansion he was currently living in.

"Yes, upgrade the Innate Cave Mansion. Maybe it will consume fewer spiritual stones next time."

However--

"Ding~"

Prompt: Upgrade failed, the Innate Cave Mansion·Moon Shadow cannot be upgraded.

Chu Bai: ".Then upgrade the Bone Forging Technique!"

Prompt: Upgrade failed, your technique, Bone Forging Technique, cannot be upgraded.

"Light Body Technique!"

For the past few years, Chu Bai had devoted all his learning time outside of cultivation to the Light Body Technique.

The system showed that his Light Body Technique had reached perfection. The flying speed of the Light Body Technique, which could be learned at the first level of Qi Refining, was not much slower than the sword flying technique that could only be learned at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

"Ding~"

Prompt: Would you like to consume one Heavenly Transcendence Star Stone fragment to upgrade the Light Body Technique to Wind Control Technique?

Chu Bai put away the stone and regained his composure.

This time, he was truly testing the effectiveness of the system's reward items. Only a fool would use such a treasure to upgrade basic spells.

Chu Bai sat up from the bed and felt that his body was much better than this morning.

He got out of bed and tried walking. He didn't need to lean on the wall anymore. When he returned to practice, the pain in his meridians reminded him that his body was still useless. But the words "slow recovery" in the aptitude column were reassuring.

"I finally made some progress, although it's a bit late. It's not a bad thing to activate the system at the age of fifty or sixty."

For the next two days, Chu Bai focused on recovery.

The next day, he could work in the medicinal field, catching insects and weeding. At the same time, he would collect the leaves and petals that didn't grow well.

For the sect, these scraps were considered garbage and would be thrown away or burned.

But Chu Bai was different.

He was a poor guy at the fourth level of Qi Refining.

Since it was difficult to find a medicinal garden like the Qingyun Back Mountain at the foot of the mountain, these withered branches and rotten leaves found a market.

He was just pruning herbs, even if he was discovered, the punishment wouldn't be severe.

In the evening, an imperceptible aura descended on the medicinal field.
