Chapter 3: The Nine Heavens Immortal Transformation Method
“Xiao… Xiao Yao.”
Lin Feng stared blankly at the closed door, his heart aching with every beat.
The warm family reunion he had imagined did not materialize; instead, he was met with such desolation.
Perhaps, from the moment he was taken back to the mountains by the old man ten years ago, it was destined to end in tragedy.
Lin Feng stood in front of the door, breathing heavily for a long time before his emotions slowly settled.
It must be said that the old man’s harsh training had really impacted him; he felt as though his blood had turned cold, and no matter what happened, he could quickly adjust his emotions.
Lin Feng exhaled a breath of turbid air and explained slowly:
“Xiao Yao, I really did go to practice immortality back then. I was locked away for ten years! I only just got out today…”
But there was no response from inside the house.
“Xiao Yao, no matter what, since I’m back, I won’t leave again! I don’t care about the demolition compensation; you’re my sister, and I have the duty to protect you!”
“From now on, we’re all each other has, and I won’t let anyone bully you again.”
Creak~
The door opened.
Lin Yun Yao looked at Lin Feng with a complicated expression.
She naturally did not believe the story about being locked away for ten years.
“Is what you’re saying even meaningful?”
“Xiao Yao, our parents passed away. You must have had a hard time these years, right?” Lin Feng said with a pained heart.
“It’s none of your business.”
Lin Yun Yao slammed the door shut again.
Then, leaning against the door, she covered her mouth with both hands, tears streaming down her delicate face.
She really wanted to, more than anything, rush into her brother’s arms like she did when she was little, cry her heart out, and seek comfort.
But every time she thought about how her brother had left for ten years after graduating from university for a woman, leading to their parents’ deaths, she couldn’t bring herself to forgive him.
Especially with her brother appearing during such a sensitive time as the demolition, it was hard not to suspect his true intentions for coming back.
“Xiao Yao, just get a good night’s sleep. I’ll stay outside. Call me if you need anything.”
Lin Feng said quietly.
Then he found a flat spot in front of the door and sat down cross-legged.
His mind was very chaotic; he needed to sort out his thoughts.
Their parents had died in an accident while searching for him, and his sister had lived alone for so many years.
One could only imagine the grievances and hardships she had suffered.
“Now that I’m back, no one is allowed to bully Xiao Yao…”
Lin Feng exhaled another breath of turbid air.
Since their parents were gone, taking care of his sister and seeking the way to immortality were now his only tasks.
“As for Yinuo…”
Lin Feng sighed again.
Chen Yinuo was his ex-girlfriend.
They had been together for seven years—three years in high school and four years in college.
Although they were deeply in love, they were ultimately not meant to be together.
After ten years, Chen Yinuo would be thirty-two now, and probably has children of her own.
“Never mind, what’s the point of thinking about this now? I’ve let her down.”
Lin Feng stopped thinking about it.
He began to meditate and breathe.
The breathing technique he practiced was called the “Nine Heavens Immortal Transformation Method.”
According to the old man, it was an unparalleled immortal method that he had risked his life to obtain from an ancient relic!
Unfortunately, this method could only be practiced by those with innate spiritual bodies. That’s why the old man was so excited when he saw Lin Feng…
And now, Lin Feng could also guess why the old man had been so harsh and merciless with him.
The old man was exceptionally talented and reached the Tribulation Stage in this end-of-law era. Unfortunately, he was ultimately unable to overcome the barrenness of this world and failed to reach the Immortal Realm before his life ran out.
Reaching the Immortal Realm had been the old man’s lifelong obsession.
So, in the last ten years of his life, he found Lin Feng and taught him all he knew, hoping Lin Feng could break the shackles of heaven and earth and shatter the curse of not being able to become an immortal in the future.
Under the old man’s devilish training, Lin Feng also lived up to expectations.
In just ten years, he had become a peak Golden Core Stage cultivator.
Cultivation is divided into ten realms:
Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Out-of-Body, Spirit Transformation, Void Refining, Integration, Great Ascension, and Tribulation.
Each realm is further divided into several sub-stages.
For example, the Golden Core Stage has three sub-stages: Core Gathering, Core Formation, and Core Transformation, while the Nascent Soul Stage has three sub-stages: Nascent Soul Gathering, Nascent Soul Formation, and Nascent Soul Transformation.
Each breakthrough in a sub-stage is a significant advancement for a cultivator, with strength increasing exponentially.
In this end-of-law era, Lin Feng’s peak Golden Core Stage cultivation could almost sweep the world!
Of course, that’s only what the old man had told him.
As for the specifics, Lin Feng wasn’t entirely sure because he had yet to encounter other cultivators.
……
The night passed quickly.
Lin Feng opened his eyes from his meditation and exhaled a breath of turbid air.
After breaking through to the Golden Core Stage, it wasn’t easy to advance further.
Due to the thin spiritual energy in this world, condensing the Nascent Soul through meditation alone would take a very long time. To breakthrough quickly, he would have to find another method.
At that moment.
The door to the house opened.
Lin Yun Yao came out carrying a basin of clothes, ready to wash them in the small pond in front of the house.
Lin Feng immediately approached his sister.
“Xiao Yao, washing clothes? Let me help you.”
“No need.”
Lin Yun Yao replied coldly.
She had seen Lin Feng meditating outside all night.
Even so, it couldn’t erase the resentment in her heart.
She couldn’t help but feel that her brother’s return was probably all about the demolition issue.
“Don’t be polite.”
Lin Feng directly grabbed the basin and walked towards the pond.
But as soon as he squatted down, he noticed something odd because the basin was full of women’s underwear….
To wash… or not to wash?
Lin Feng was truly at a loss.
Though she was his sister, there was still the issue of gender.
Besides, these intimate garments…
It felt awkward to handle them with his hands.
However, on the other hand, seeing the worn-out underwear made Lin Feng feel a pang of discomfort.
For a girl, underwear should be replaced regularly, but his sister’s seemed to have been worn for years.
“What’s wrong? Are you embarrassed?”
Lin Yun Yao stood on the riverbank, speaking coldly.
“These clothes are too old. I’ll buy you new ones later.”
Lin Feng said gently while washing the clothes.
“Stop pretending!”
Lin Yun Yao turned and walked back into the house.
Lin Feng could only give a wry smile at her reaction.
