Chapter 45: It's really painful to teach a wife how to fix things

  The next morning, I woke up from my cultivation and decided to teach Xue'er how to cultivate her true energy.

  A figure quietly moved into Xue Er's room, where she was still fast asleep. Looking at Xue Er's snow-white skin exposed outside her quilt, my heart couldn't help but tremble. I quickly employed the Wu Wei Heart Method to calm myself down. Walking over to the bedside, I pushed Xue Er who was still fast asleep.

  "Xue'er, wake up, your husband is going to teach you how to cultivate your true self today." I said gently.

  "Ugh... I hate it... I'm still sleeping... Talk to you later." After finishing speaking, she turned over and continued sleeping. Suddenly, Xue Er sat up with a start.

  "Practicing the truth? Practicing the truth? Brother Long is willing to teach me how to practice the truth?" Suddenly becoming clear-headed, Baby didn't realize that she wasn't wearing any clothes. Only two jade rabbits were visible outside the quilt, floating up and down with Snow's voice. It gave people a lot of imagination. Seeing me staring at her with a silly smile, Snow seemed to have realized her situation. She quickly dove back under the quilt.

  "Ugh, you've seen everything. Get out, get out... I'll talk to you after I put on some clothes." Xue'er said shyly from under the covers. I smiled and walked out without saying a word.

  "Hmm... how can Big Brother Long look at me like that?" Xue Er was still thinking in her blanket, her face bright red.

  After a while, I saw that there was still no movement in the house. I thought Snowy had fallen asleep again. Just as I was about to go in, Snowy came out from inside.

  "Brother Long, I've finished collecting them. Teach me how to cultivate the truth now." Today's treasure wore a pink casual outfit, lovely and full of youthful energy.

  "En!" Then I started explaining relevant knowledge about Xiuzhen to baby.

  "Xu'er, the cultivation realm of a cultivator is divided into ten types, from low to high: Xuanzhao, Kaiguang, Ronghe, Xindong, Lingji, Yuanying, Chukong, Fenshen, Douzhuan, and Duojie. Each type has its own early, middle, and late stages."

  "When a cultivator enters the sixth layer of the Yuan Ying period and cultivates their own 'Zi Fu Yuan Ying', they can achieve what is called immortality of the soul. If one successfully cultivates to the tenth layer, they can ascend to become an immortal." I told Xue Er what my grandfather used to tell me when he taught me how to cultivate.

  "What realm has that old man reached?" Xue Er said, looking at me with a serious expression. Looking at him, I taught him to cultivate his true self, and even the way he addresses me has changed.

  "To be precise, I am not a cultivator, but if I were to be classified according to the levels of cultivation, I should currently be at the late stage of crossing the calamity." I said slowly.

  "Wow...my husband is so powerful! Now that I have a great backer like my husband, I won't be afraid of bad people anymore!" Why does this sound familiar to me?

  "Xue Er, cultivating is going against the heavens, and one must not have such thoughts. Otherwise, it's likely that you'll never obtain the Way of Heaven in your lifetime." I said seriously to Xue Er. But at this time, Xue Er was thinking...

  "...Dead old man, bad old man. I thought I had a reliable backing, but now it seems that's not the case. Originally, I wanted to praise you, but now I strongly despise you." At this moment, I knew what Xue Er was thinking in her heart. When Grandfather taught me how to cultivate my true self back then, didn't I have the same thoughts? Thinking of when Grandfather taught me how to cultivate my true self, my mind was a bit dazed and my face was uncertain. Baby saw that I was like this and thought she had said something wrong, so she hastily asked...

  "Brother Long, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

  "No, I just remembered something. Alright, Xue Er, let's start cultivating. Are you ready?"

  "En." Hearing Xue Er's affirmative answer, I had her sit cross-legged and used the same method as when I transmitted my powers to Wu Qing to open up her meridians. However, Wu Qing had practiced martial arts before, whereas Xue Er hadn't, so opening up her meridians was an extremely difficult task. If anything went wrong, the precious gem would lose its life at my hands.

  I activated the Wu Wei Heart Method, and with a gentle palm, I covered the Tian Ling acupoint on Xue Er's head, slowly pouring my original yuan qi into her body. I guided my original yuan qi to flow through her meridians, knowing that this process would be extremely painful for her. As expected, Xue Er let out a pained cry and fainted.

  I didn't dare to underestimate Xue Er's condition, as my original yuan qi was currently clearing her meridians. One misstep would render all my efforts useless. However, from the expression on her face after she fainted, I could tell that she was in extreme pain. I steeled myself and mobilized the Jing Bao within my Zifu, transferring it into Xue Er's body.

  The Jing Bao emerged from my Zifu, radiating a brilliant blue light as it slowly merged with Xue Er's body. Once it had fully integrated, I controlled its movement along the pathways of my Wu Wei Heart Method. After careful consideration, I decided to have Xue Er cultivate the Wu Wei Heart Method as well.

  As soon as the Jing Bao entered her body, Xue Er lost consciousness, which was for the better, sparing her from the pain. Thus, I guided my original yuan qi to clear her meridians while controlling the Jing Bao within her, following the pathways of my Wu Wei Heart Method.

  After about half a day, I had cleared approximately 99% of Xue Er's meridians. Her clothes were drenched in sweat, and the two jade rabbits on her chest seemed to be straining to break free, sparking endless imagination. However, I didn't have time to appreciate these details, as I needed to focus on controlling my original yuan qi for the final push.

  I adjusted my pace, increasing the intensity to make a final sprint for Xue Er. The Jing Bao had already been retracted into my body. However, during the process of retracting the Jing Bao, something unexpected happened - it seemed like the Jing Bao was not very pleased. Hehe, can't worry about that now. After resolving Xue Er's situation, I should also focus on cultivating myself properly.

  I adjusted my state, gathered all my primordial energy and made a final dash towards the last critical point. All I heard was Snow's faint cry of "ah" before she fainted again. The situation afterwards was just like with Wu Qing. The only difference was that the gas circulating within Snow's body was a light blue color. This was the precursor to entering the first layer of the True Realm.

  Watching Xue Er's meridians being unblocked, I helped Xue Er onto the bed and laid her down flat, then sat beside her to recover myself.

  In this way, I can be considered to have successfully introduced Xue Er into the cultivation method of Jing Xiu, although during this time Xue Er's fragrant and delicate body was constantly stimulating me, making my blood boil. However, in the end, I still managed to endure it. As for what differences there are between Xue Er's Jing Xiu and mine, that is unknown. After all, Xue Er has only just begun to scratch the surface, while I have already entered the intermediate stage of Wu Jing.
