“This… this… how is this even possible…”
Upon witnessing the mountains and rivers, trees and flowers within Shui Miao’s realm, all brimming with vibrant vitality, Bufa was utterly stunned.
The manifestation of an entire world within a realm was something he had never heard of before.
Bufa had lived for over a thousand years, had friends across the Three Realms, and had witnessed countless miracles, but today’s revelation shook him more than anything else he had ever encountered.
“Reality within illusion, illusion within reality—the essence of the Dao of nature lies precisely in this interplay. How can a low-level cultivator create a world where reality and illusion are indistinguishable? What kind of Dao is this? Could the secret to immortality lie within this natural Dao?”
Bufa murmured to himself, his mind racing with countless thoughts.
Each person’s understanding of the Dao varies according to their cultivation level and perception.
Shui Miao couldn’t understand what Bufa meant and asked in confusion, “Senior, none of this is real. It’s just the natural result of manipulating Yin-Yang and the Five Elements’ energy. How can it be related to the Dao of nature or the secret of immortality?”
“Shui Miao, you’re thinking too simply,” Bufa replied, suppressing his excitement and patiently explaining, “You may think you’re just cultivating the energy of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements, and that these manifestations are nothing special. But do you realize that everything in the Three Realms is also formed from the energy of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements? How did this vast universe come into being? Why do only the energies of the Five Elements exist? All of this is part of an ongoing transformation, a mystery that demands exploration!”
“Senior, I don’t quite follow what you’re saying.”
Shui Miao was confused. The principles Bufa described were things he already knew, and he didn’t find them particularly profound.
Bufa blinked, gathering his thoughts before continuing, “Throughout history, countless powerful beings have sought the secret to eternal life, yet none have truly found it. Despite their immense power, they still succumbed to the Five Decays of Heavenly Beings and were scattered into oblivion.”
Shui Miao thought of the Wuxi Immortal Sovereign and nodded, “I know that, but what does it have to do with me?”
In Shui Miao’s heart, revenge was his only concern.
“Everything!” Bufa exclaimed, eager to pour out his thoughts but cautious not to overwhelm Shui Miao. He continued carefully, “All those beings were born within the universe, seeking immortality by deciphering its mysteries. But you are different—you can create your own world and understand its composition. If I supply you with vast amounts of energy to strengthen and accelerate the evolution of this world, perhaps we can uncover the ultimate secret of the Three Realms!”
“…”
The more he listened, the more bewildered Shui Miao became, thinking that Bufa was overreaching.
In Shui Miao’s view, even the most powerful beings could easily create realms like his. To expect to uncover cosmic secrets from such a realm seemed like wishful thinking.
Seeing Shui Miao’s doubt, Bufa continued patiently, “Shui Miao, you must understand—Yin-Yang and the Five Elements created the universe, so they must also hold the key to immortality. Don’t rush. Keep cultivating. Once we reach the ancient tomb and obtain the Nine Sacred Elemental Spirits of the Divine King Luotong, you will surely gain deeper insight.”
“…”
Shui Miao frowned, wondering why even the mightiest immortals feared death so much.
After death, didn’t the soul remain?
Couldn’t it be reborn?
Could it be that the legends were false? Or that after several reincarnations, the soul itself would vanish?
He scratched his head and voiced his confusion.
“Ah, you’re thinking too naively!” Bufa shook his head. “Yes, the soul can be reborn, but can you guarantee that you won’t be captured or destroyed by powerful beings? And once you die, all your hard-earned cultivation dissipates. You’d have to start over again. Worse still, if your soul is captured or destroyed, you will cease to exist—forever.”
“…”
The thought of eternal oblivion sent a chill through Shui Miao.
Indeed!
If the soul was destroyed, it would vanish forever.
Then what meaning would all his struggles, grudges, and efforts have?
It was a terrifying thought.
As he pondered, fear gripped his heart like a black hole threatening to consume him.
“Then… what should I do?”
After a pause, Shui Miao pulled himself from his fear.
“Don’t rush. First, I’ll give you some spirit stones. Keep cultivating. Also, the outside world is distracting. Enter my treasure ring. Inside, you’ll find spirit stones, treasures, pills, and herbs. Take whatever you need. I hardly use them anyway. I’ll call you out when we reach the tomb.” Seeing Shui Miao’s realm, Bufa was even more determined to nurture him. If it meant uncovering the secret of immortality, giving Shui Miao all the treasures of the dwarves would be worth it.
The two withdrew from the realm.
Then, Shui Miao entered Bufa’s treasure ring.
The moment he stepped inside, he was awestruck.
“This… this is… how could this be…”
Witnessing the mountains, rivers, trees, and flowers within Shui Miao’s spiritual realm, all pulsating with vibrant life force, Bufa was utterly stunned!
The manifestation of a world within a spiritual realm was something unheard of.
Having lived for over a millennium, with friends across the three realms and having witnessed countless unimaginable phenomena, today was undoubtedly the most astonishing experience Bufa had ever encountered.
“Reality and illusion, illusion and reality—the essence of the natural Dao lies between these two. For a low-level cultivator to manifest a world where reality and illusion are indistinguishable—what kind of Dao art is this? Could it be… could it be that the secret to the immortals’ longevity lies within this natural Dao art?!”
Bufa muttered to himself, his mind racing with countless thoughts.
Each person, depending on their level of cultivation, perceives the Dao differently.
Shui Miao, unable to grasp Bufa’s meaning, was puzzled. “Senior, these aren’t real. They’re just the natural result of the evolution of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements spiritual energy. How could they be related to the natural Dao or the secret of immortal longevity?”
“Shui Miao, you’re thinking too simply.” Bufa suppressed his excitement and patiently explained, “You might think you’ve merely cultivated Yin-Yang and the Five Elements spiritual energy, and that these manifestations are nothing special. But do you realize that everything in the three realms is born from the evolution of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements spiritual energy? How did this vast universe come into being? Why is there only the spiritual energy of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements? All of this is part of an ongoing evolution, compelling us to seek answers!”
“Senior, I don’t quite understand what you’re saying.”
Shui Miao was confused. The principles Bufa spoke of were things he already knew, and he didn’t find them particularly remarkable.
Bufa blinked, organizing his thoughts before continuing, “Throughout history, how many divine kings and powerful beings have sought the secret of immortality? Yet, have any of them succeeded? Clearly not. Despite their immense power, they still faced the calamity of the Five Decays and the dissipation of their souls.”
Shui Miao thought of the Supreme Immortal Venerable and nodded. “I know about that, but what does it have to do with me?”
In Shui Miao’s heart, only revenge mattered.
“Of course, it has everything to do with you!”
Bufa grew impatient, eager to pour out everything in his mind. Yet, fearing Shui Miao might not understand, he carefully elaborated, “Those powerful beings were born within the universe, seeking the secrets of longevity by comprehending its mysteries. But you are different. You can manifest a world and understand its composition. If I supply you with vast amounts of various spiritual energies to strengthen and even reverse this world, accelerating its evolution, you might uncover the ultimate secrets of the three realms!”
“…”
Shui Miao found Bufa’s words increasingly fantastical and thought he was overcomplicating things.
Shui Miao believed that if such a task were given to those divine kings and powerful beings, they could easily transform their spiritual realms like his. To search for the secrets of the creation of the three realms and the universe within such a realm seemed illusory and impractical.
Seeing Shui Miao’s skepticism, Bufa patiently continued, “Shui Miao, you must understand that if Yin-Yang and the Five Elements can create all things in the universe, they can also grant immortality. Don’t rush. Cultivate steadily. Once we enter the ancient tomb and obtain the Nine Great Sacred Source Spirits forged by Sage King Luo Tong, I believe you will gain profound insights.”
“…”
Shui Miao curled his lips, wondering why powerful immortals were so afraid of death.
Wasn’t there still the soul after death?
Couldn’t one reincarnate and start over?
Were those legends false? Or did the soul eventually dissipate after several reincarnations?
Scratching his head, Shui Miao voiced his doubts.
“Ah! You’re being naive!” Bufa waved his hands dismissively. “While it’s true that one can reincarnate after death, can you guarantee that you won’t have your soul driven out or seized by powerful beings? Moreover, once you die, all the cultivation you’ve painstakingly accumulated will vanish, and you’ll have to start over. Remember, if your soul is driven out or seized, you will disappear forever.”
“This…”
The thought of one day vanishing forever sent a chill of desolation through Shui Miao’s heart.
Indeed!
Once a person’s soul is dispersed, it is gone forever.
Then, what meaning did past struggles, hatred, and efforts hold?
This was a terrifying thought!
As he pondered, Shui Miao felt an increasing fear, as if being swallowed by a black hole.
“So, what should I do?”
After a pause, Shui Miao pulled himself out of his fearful state.
“Don’t worry. I’ll give you some spirit stones first. Just focus on cultivating. Oh, and it’s easy to get distracted outside. Why don’t you go into my treasure vault ring? There are spirit stones, treasures, elixirs, and herbs inside. Take whatever you need—everything if you want. I hardly use them anyway. I’ll call you out when we reach the ancient tomb.” Having seen Shui Miao’s spiritual realm, Bufa was even more willing to nurture him. If they could uncover the secret of immortality, giving Shui Miao all the treasures of the dwarf race would be insignificant.
The two withdrew from the spiritual realm.
Shortly after, Shui Miao entered Bufa’s treasure vault ring.
The moment he stepped inside, Shui Miao was astounded!
The ring contained vast quantities of crystals, all top-grade ones found only in the immortal realm, piled into towering mountains stretching as far as the eye could see!
A master was indeed a master—even the space inside his ring was unimaginably vast.
Besides the crystals, there were numerous herbs growing on the crystal mountains, emitting rich fragrances.
There were also low-grade immortal tools and protective artifacts scattered everywhere like garbage!
But what intrigued Shui Miao the most was a massive alchemy room.
Inside, ten winged female elves were refining elixirs.
“Your servants greet the new master!”
“New master, Master Bufa said we are to serve you from now on.”
“New master, everything here belongs to you.”
Seeing Shui Miao, the female elves flew over to welcome him.
These elves were slightly smaller than ordinary people, each with delicate skin and stunning, holy beauty. What captivated Shui Miao the most was that they wore only transparent gauze dresses, revealing their extremely seductive and voluptuous bodies. Shui Miao blushed and couldn’t help but let his imagination run wild.
Just then, Bufa’s voice echoed inside the ring.
“Shui Miao, these elf maidens were purchased at great cost from the Elf Queen. They are pure-hearted and loyal, all trained in superior essence cultivation techniques. You can dual cultivate with them to enhance your power or bring them into your spiritual realm. With them there, I believe the wood-element life in your spiritual realm will undergo miraculous changes. Well, I won’t disturb your cultivation. Everything here is yours. Take it all and focus on your training.”
“…”
Shui Miao never expected Bufa to gift him ten elf beauties for dual cultivation. This was an unexpected surprise.
However, with his current level of self-control, Shui Miao wasn’t about to lose his composure over a few beauties.
Glancing at the shy elf maidens, Shui Miao quickly sat down cross-legged and used his intent to bring them all into his spiritual realm.
Since Bufa had said everything here was his, Shui Miao didn’t hold back. He also moved large quantities of crystals into his spiritual realm. The ten elf maidens were overjoyed with their new home. They each circled around a large tree, and to their amazement, the trees slowly transformed into tree ents!
A surprise—this was absolutely a surprise!
After the trees became tree ents, their power soared. They all regarded Shui Miao as their deity, generating faith power for him.
Seeing this, Shui Miao moved even more wood-element crystals into his spiritual realm.
He also transferred many herbs and even the alchemy room into his spiritual realm.
These ten elf maidens were naturally skilled alchemists. With them around, elixirs would no longer be a concern.
The spiritual realm was now full of vitality and energy, bringing joy to both Shui Miao and the elf maidens.
With an abundance of crystals, Shui Miao also moved large quantities into the Soul Pearl, along with the numerous low-grade immortal tools and protective artifacts. Bai Feng and the others were thrilled beyond words.
With such a massive supply of crystals, Shui Miao focused on breathing exercises, circulating his energy, and enhancing his cultivation while continuously moving crystals into his spiritual realm and the Soul Pearl.
Before Bufa called him out, Shui Miao planned to fill his spiritual realm, the Soul Pearl, and the Sacred Source Ring to the brim.
For the sake of everyone, Shui Miao was unwavering.
That said, it was undeniable that as everyone grew stronger, the power of the Soul Pearl would also increase significantly.
In no time, two mountains of crystals were emptied by Shui Miao.
Just as Shui Miao was engrossed in moving crystals, Bufa suddenly transported him out of the ring.
Shui Miao was taken aback, feeling somewhat embarrassed, thinking he had been too greedy and taken too much.
To his surprise, Bufa simply smiled faintly and handed the ring to him. “There’s no need to waste time moving crystals. I’ll just give you this Tianyuan Ring.” Lowering his voice mysteriously, Bufa added, “Shui Miao, why aren’t you in a hurry to dual cultivate with those elf maidens?”
“Uh… well… about that…”
Shui Miao scratched his head and shrugged. What kind of question was that? Should he have stripped naked and engaged in passionate dual cultivation with the ten elf maidens for Bufa to watch? Senior Bufa, do you have a voyeuristic interest in such scenes?
Shui Miao suddenly thought—dwarves are indeed perverted!
“Don’t misunderstand! Absolutely don’t misunderstand!” Bufa seemed to sense Shui Miao’s thoughts, his old face flushing slightly as he chuckled. “Shui Miao, I suggested that because I want those elf maidens to bear your children. They can help you create a special large family within your spiritual realm. Then, using spirit stones to rapidly nurture them, they will provide you with a continuous stream of faith power. You must understand, the faith power from your own children is incomparable to that from others—a single child is worth millions of tree ents. Oh, and let me share a secret with you: I once bought ten thousand elf maidens, and in one of my magical artifacts, they’ve borne me hundreds of thousands of children!”
“Uh…”
Shui Miao’s mind struggled to process this, and he couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Senior, why did you specifically choose elf maidens? Is there something special about them?!”
Truly a master among masters—his ring alone was vast beyond imagination.
Besides the spirit stones, there were countless medicinal herbs growing on the crystal mountains, exuding rich fragrance.
There were also low-grade immortal artifacts and protective talismans scattered everywhere like trash.
But what intrigued Shui Miao most was a massive alchemy hall.
Inside the hall, ten winged female elves were refining pills.
“Servants greet our new master!”
“New master, Master Bufa has said that we are now your servants.”
“All of this here belongs to you now.”
Seeing Shui Miao arrive, the elves quickly flew over to greet him.
These elves were slightly smaller than humans, with delicate skin and radiant beauty. What made Shui Miao’s heart race was that they wore only translucent gauze, revealing their alluring, shapely figures. He blushed, his mind wandering with thoughts.
Suddenly, Bufa’s voice echoed from within the ring.
“Shui Miao, these elves were purchased at great cost from the Elven Queen. They are pure-hearted and loyal, trained in the Supreme Essence Cultivation Technique. You can cultivate with them to enhance your power, or bring them into your realm. With them there, I believe the plant life in your realm will undergo miraculous transformations. Well, I won’t disturb your cultivation anymore. I give you everything here—make good use of it and keep cultivating.”
“…”
Shui Miao never expected Bufa to give him ten elven beauties for cultivation. It was a surprise beyond surprises.
However, with his current level of discipline, he wasn’t about to lose his composure over a few beautiful elves.
After glancing at the shy elves, he sat down, focused his mind, and pulled them all into his realm.
Since Bufa had said everything here belonged to him, Shui Miao didn’t hesitate. He transferred large quantities of spirit stones into his realm. The elves, delighted with their new home, gathered around ten great trees. To everyone’s amazement, the trees gradually transformed into treants!
A wonderful, unexpected surprise!
As the treants gained sentience, they regarded Shui Miao as their divine ruler, generating faith energy.
Seeing this, Shui Miao transferred even more wood-element spirit stones into his realm.
He also moved in many medicinal herbs and the alchemy hall.
These ten elves were naturally gifted alchemists—having them meant he would have no shortage of pills.
With vitality and energy, both Shui Miao and the elves were filled with joy.
With so many spirit stones available, Shui Miao also transferred a large quantity into the Soul Crystal, along with numerous low-grade immortal artifacts and talismans, which thrilled Bai Feng and the others to no end.
With such an abundance of spirit stones, Shui Miao cultivated while continuously transferring stones into his realm, Soul Crystal, and the Holy Elemental Ring.
Before Bufa called him out, Shui Miao planned to fill them all to the brim.
He was generous—for everyone’s sake.
Of course, the stronger they all became, the more powerful the Soul Crystal would grow. That was beyond doubt.
Before long, two entire mountains of spirit stones were emptied.
Just as Shui Miao was happily transferring more, Bufa suddenly pulled him out of the ring.
Shui Miao’s heart sank, embarrassed, thinking he must have taken too much.
To his surprise, Bufa simply smiled and handed him the ring.
“You know what? Don’t waste time transferring spirit stones anymore. I’ll just give you the Tianyuan Ring directly.” Then, lowering his voice, he added mysteriously, “Shui Miao, why haven’t you started cultivating with the elven beauties yet?”
“Uh… well… this…”
Shui Miao scratched his head and shrugged. What kind of question was that? Was he supposed to strip naked and perform for Bufa with the ten elves?
He suddenly thought—maybe the dwarf was a pervert.
“This… this… how is this possible…”
Witnessing the mountains, rivers, trees, and flowers within Shui Miao’s spiritual realm, all brimming with vibrant life force, Bufa was utterly stunned!
The manifestation of a world within a spiritual realm was something unheard of.
Having lived for over a thousand years, with friends across the Three Realms and having witnessed countless unimaginable phenomena, today was by far the most astonishing experience for Bufa.
“Reality and illusion, illusion and reality—the essence of the natural Dao lies between these two. For a low-level cultivator to manifest a world where reality and illusion are indistinguishable—what kind of Dao art is this? Could it be… could it be that the secret to the immortals’ longevity lies within this natural Dao art?!”
Bufa muttered to himself, his mind racing with countless thoughts.
Each person, depending on their level of cultivation, would perceive the Dao differently.
Shui Miao, unable to comprehend Bufa’s meaning, was puzzled. “Senior, these aren’t real. They’re just the natural result of the evolution of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements spiritual energy. How could they be related to the natural Dao or the secret of immortal longevity?”
“Shui Miao, you’re thinking too simply.” Bufa suppressed his excitement and patiently explained, “You might think you’ve merely cultivated Yin-Yang and the Five Elements spiritual energy, and that these manifestations are nothing special. But do you know? Everything in the Three Realms is born from the evolution of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements spiritual energy. How did this vast universe come into being? Why is there only Yin-Yang and the Five Elements spiritual energy? All of this is part of the ongoing evolution, and it’s something we must explore!”
“Senior, I don’t quite understand what you’re saying.”
Shui Miao was confused. The principles Bufa spoke of were things he already knew, and he didn’t find them particularly remarkable.
Bufa blinked, organizing his thoughts before continuing, “Throughout history, how many divine kings and powerful beings have there been? They’ve always sought the secret of immortality, but have any of them found it? Clearly not. Even with their immense power, didn’t they still face the fate of the Five Decays and the dissipation of their souls?”
Shui Miao suddenly thought of the Supreme Immortal Venerable and nodded. “I know about that, but what does it have to do with me?”
In Shui Miao’s heart, there was only revenge.
“Of course it has to do with you!”
Bufa grew impatient, eager to pour out everything in his mind. But fearing Shui Miao wouldn’t understand, he had to explain slowly, “They were all born within the universe, seeking the secrets of longevity by comprehending its mysteries. But you are different. You can manifest a world yourself and understand its composition. If I supply you with vast amounts of spiritual energy—all kinds of spiritual energy—to help you catalyze, strengthen, and even reverse this world, accelerating its evolution, you might just uncover the ultimate secret of the Three Realms!”
“…”
Shui Miao found this increasingly abstract and felt Bufa was overthinking it.
In Shui Miao’s view, if such a task were given to those divine kings and powerful beings, they could easily transform their spiritual realms into something like his. Trying to find the secrets of the creation of the Three Realms and the universe within such a realm seemed too illusory, like wild fantasies with no basis in reality.
Seeing Shui Miao’s skepticism, Bufa patiently continued, “Shui Miao, you must understand that if Yin-Yang and the Five Elements can create all things in the universe, they can certainly grant immortality. Don’t rush. Cultivate slowly. Once we enter the ancient tomb and you obtain the Nine Great Sacred Source Spirits forged by Sage King Luo Tong, I believe you will gain some insights.”
“…”
Shui Miao curled his lips, wondering why powerful immortals were so afraid of death.
Wasn’t there still the soul after death?
Couldn’t one reincarnate and start over?
Were those legends false? Or did the soul eventually dissipate after several reincarnations?
Scratching his head, Shui Miao voiced his doubts.
“Ah! You’re being naive!” Bufa waved his hands dismissively. “It’s true that after death, one can reincarnate and start anew. But can you guarantee that you won’t have your soul driven out or seized by powerful beings? Moreover, once you die, all the cultivation you’ve painstakingly achieved will vanish, and you’ll have to start all over again. You must understand that if your soul is driven out or seized, you will disappear forever.”
“This…”
The thought of one day disappearing forever sent a chill of desolation through Shui Miao’s heart.
Yes!
Once a person’s soul is dispersed, it’s gone forever.
Then, what was the meaning of all the struggles, hatred, and efforts from before?
It was a terrifying thought!
As he pondered, Shui Miao felt an increasing fear, as if he were about to be swallowed by a black hole.
“So, what should I do?”
After a pause, Shui Miao pulled himself out of his fearful state.
“Don’t worry. I’ll give you some spirit stones first. Just keep cultivating. Oh, and it’s easy to get distracted outside. Why don’t you go into my treasure vault ring? There are spirit stones, treasures, pills, and herbs inside. Take whatever you need—even if you take everything, it’s fine. I don’t have much use for them anyway. When we reach the ancient tomb, I’ll call you out.” Having seen Shui Miao’s spiritual realm, Bufa was even more willing to nurture him. If they could uncover the secret of immortality, even giving away all the dwarf clan’s treasures to Shui Miao would be worth it.
The two exited the spiritual realm.
Shortly after, Shui Miao entered Bufa’s treasure vault ring.
The moment he stepped inside, Shui Miao was astounded!
The ring contained vast quantities of crystals, all top-grade ones found only in the immortal realm, piled into towering mountains stretching endlessly for miles.
True experts even had ridiculously spacious rings!
Besides the crystals, there were numerous medicinal herbs growing on the crystal mountains, emitting rich fragrances.
There were also low-grade immortal tools and protective artifacts scattered everywhere like garbage!
But what intrigued Shui Miao the most was a massive alchemy room.
Inside, ten winged female elves were refining pills.
“Your servants greet the new master!”
“New master, Master Bufa said we are to serve you from now on.”
“New master, everything here belongs to you.”
Seeing Shui Miao, the female elves flew over to welcome him respectfully.
These elves were slightly smaller than ordinary humans, each with delicate skin and stunning, holy beauty. What made Shui Miao unable to look away was that they were all wearing only transparent gauze dresses, their extremely sexy and voluptuous bodies fully visible, making Shui Miao blush and his thoughts wander.
Just then, Bufa’s voice suddenly echoed in the ring.
“Shui Miao, these elf girls were bought at great cost from the Elf Queen. They are pure-hearted, loyal, and have all cultivated superior essence heart sutras. You can dual cultivate with them to enhance your cultivation or bring them into your spiritual realm. With them there, I believe the wood-element life in your spiritual realm will undergo miraculous changes. Well, I won’t disturb your cultivation. Everything here is yours. Take it all and focus on your training.”
“…”
Shui Miao never expected Bufa to gift him ten elf beauties for dual cultivation. This was an unexpected surprise.
However, with Shui Miao’s current level of self-control, he wasn’t about to lose his composure over a few beauties.
Glancing at the shy elf beauties, Shui Miao quickly sat down cross-legged and used his intent to bring them all into his spiritual realm.
Since Bufa had said everything here was his, Shui Miao didn’t hold back. He also moved large quantities of crystals into his spiritual realm. The ten elf beauties were overjoyed with their new home. They separated and circled ten large trees several times, and surprisingly, those trees slowly transformed into treants!
A pleasant surprise—absolutely a pleasant surprise!
After the trees transformed into treants, their power surged dramatically. They all revered Shui Miao as their sacred deity, generating immense faith power for him.
Seeing this, Shui Miao moved even more wood-element crystals into his spiritual realm.
He also moved many medicinal herbs into the spiritual realm, along with the alchemy room.
These ten elf beauties were natural alchemy experts. With them around, there was no need to worry about pills.
The spiritual realm was now full of vitality and energy, bringing joy to both Shui Miao and the elf beauties.
With an abundance of crystals, Shui Miao also moved large quantities into the Soul Pearl, along with the many low-grade immortal tools and protective artifacts. This excited Bai Feng and the others so much they jumped for joy.
With such a massive supply of crystals, Shui Miao focused on breathing exercises, circulating his energy, and improving his cultivation while tirelessly moving crystals into his spiritual realm and the Soul Pearl.
Before Bufa called him out, Shui Miao planned to fill his spiritual realm, the Soul Pearl, and the Sacred Source Ring to the brim.
For everyone’s sake, Shui Miao was unwavering.
That said, as everyone grew stronger, the power of the Soul Pearl would undoubtedly increase.
In no time, two mountains of crystals were emptied by Shui Miao.
Just as Shui Miao was happily moving crystals, Bufa suddenly transported him out of the ring.
Shui Miao was taken aback, feeling somewhat embarrassed, thinking he had been too greedy and taken too much.
To his surprise, Bufa simply smiled faintly and handed the ring to him. “There’s no need to waste time moving crystals. I’ll just give you this Tianyuan Ring directly.” Lowering his voice mysteriously, Bufa added, “Shui Miao, why aren’t you in a hurry to dual cultivate with those elf beauties?”
“Uh… well… about that…”
Shui Miao scratched his head and shrugged. What kind of question was that? Should I have stripped naked and engaged in passionate dual cultivation with the ten elf beautions for your entertainment? Senior Bufa, do you have a voyeuristic streak?
Shui Miao suddenly thought—dwarves are indeed quite perverted!
“Don’t misunderstand! Absolutely don’t misunderstand!” Bufa seemed to sense Shui Miao’s thoughts, his old face blushing slightly as he chuckled. “Shui Miao, I suggested this because I wanted those elf beauties to bear your children, helping you create a special large family within your spiritual realm. Then, using spirit stones to rapidly nurture them, they would provide you with a continuous stream of faith power. You must understand, the faith power from others and the faith power from your own children are incomparable. One of your own children is worth thousands of treants. Oh, and let me tell you a secret—I once bought ten thousand elf beauties, and in one of my magical tools, they’ve given birth to hundreds of thousands of children for me!”
“Uh…”
Shui Miao’s mind struggled to process this, and he curiously asked, “Senior, why did you specifically choose elf beauties? Is there something special about them?!”
“Uh…”
Shui Miao’s mind couldn’t keep up, so he asked curiously, “Senior, why specifically elves? Is there something particularly special about them?!”
