"This Breath Concealment Technique must be cultivated!"
After reviewing his gains, Zhou Chen decided to temporarily focus on cultivating in Martial Dao and the Breath Concealment Technique.
He planned to cultivate the Chang Chun Skill after reaching a profound level in the Breath Concealment Technique.
Otherwise, if he cultivated the Chang Chun Skill first, his dual cultivation of immortality and martial arts would be exposed, easily attracting the attention of powerful individuals.
Especially with his Five Elements Wasted Spirit Roots, if someone discovered that he cultivated the Chang Chun Skill rapidly, wouldn't he be captured and interrogated for secrets?
Zhou Chen carefully read through the Breath Concealment Technique, and the spells section immediately showed changes.
[First-Layer Breath Concealment Technique (0/10)]
"Luckily, the Breath Concealment Technique requires few Wind and Moon Points!"
Zhou Chen let out a sigh of relief,
"Add points!"
Ten Wind and Moon Points vanished.
The first layer of the Breath Concealment Technique was mastered.
Zhou Chen seemed to have practiced countless times, gaining more powerful and skilled control over himself, with his aura remaining undetectable.
He was currently in the Body Refining Second Layer - Body Refining Realm, meaning those at the Body Refining Third Layer or the Qi Refining Third Layer couldn't see through him.
Continue.
Wind and Moon Points -20.
The Second Layer of the Breath Concealment Technique was mastered.
Wind and Moon Points -40.
The Third Layer of the Breath Concealment Technique was mastered.
Unfortunately, the Wind and Moon Points were insufficient.
Previously, he gathered more than eighty Wind and Moon Points from Fengxia, used ten points on the Ghost Control Technique, leaving over seventy points.
Now, seventy points were spent.
He looked at his personal panel:
[Wind and Moon Treasure Mirror]
[Owner: Zhou Chen]
[Cultivation Technique: Yi Arrow Skill]
[Realm: Body Refining Second Stage: Refining Flesh (123/2000)]
[Divine Techniques: Thunder Light Ruyi Hand]
[Spells: Fourth-Layer Breath Concealment Technique (0/80), First-Layer Ghost Control Technique (10/1000)]
[Skills: Archery (Skillful Beyond Compare), Tracking (Mastery 40/160), Throwing (Mastery 8/160)...]
[Recipe: Yang Dingtian]
[Wind and Moon Points: 5]
"Now, I need more places for Wind and Moon Points. Merely relying on Hongyu alone won't help no matter the struggles!"
Zhou Chen's gaze naturally fell on Fengxia, a super experience baby who had previously contributed more than eighty points in a short time.
Comparable to Qin Hongyu's two days of hard work.
"Let's try another function of the Wind and Moon Treasure Mirror!"
With a thought, Zhou Chen's soul appeared in the space of the Wind and Moon Treasure Mirror.
It was an ancient mansion here, Ji Fengxia sat gracefully and elegantly in a pavilion within a blooming garden, peaceful and poised like a chrysanthemum.
Fengxia's surname is Ji, her full name is Ji Fengxia.
"This must have been Fengxia's life while living..."
The space of the Wind and Moon Treasure Mirror was actually chaotic, with this mansion manifesting based on Ji Fengxia's thoughts.
If Zhou Chen wished, he could change it into whatever he desired with a mere thought.
Here.
He was the sovereign, the absolute master of control!
Zhou Chen walked forward.
With predecessors like Ning Caichen, Luo Shiyi, Dong Yong, Xu Xian, Xiao Yan setting examples, Zhou Chen held no prejudice against Ji Fengxia.
Moreover, Ji Fengxia fitted his aesthetic preferences perfectly.
"Greetings, Master!"
Upon seeing Zhou Chen, Ji Fengxia quickly rose, seemingly sensing Zhou Chen's intense gaze, her cheeks reddened, and her heart raced.
Though Ji Fengxia had previously wished to absorb Zhou Chen's yang energy, she was still a novice, for Qi You was aged and of no use, losing interest in beauty long ago.
Qi You's greatest obsession was becoming stronger and attaining longevity, but due to limited talent, lack of background, and resources, he fell into the wrongful path.
"No need for formalities!"
Zhou Chen held Ji Fengxia's fair jade-white hand, feeling soft and cool to the touch. They were soul bodies at the moment, so the sensations were no different from their physical forms.
Even more sensitive.
Zhou Chen, being decisive, once he decided on something, he acted swiftly and without hesitation, lifting Ji Fengxia's legs, he embraced her.
"Master..."
Ji Fengxia lowered her head shyly, astonished by Zhou Chen's straightforwardness.
However, she had long prepared for this day.
She was even ready for the scenario of being bullied by Qi You.
But Qi You only wished to become strong, holding no interest in her.
More importantly, Qi You was old and frail, lacking yang energy, while she was a yin soul body. If Qi You played with her, it wouldn't take long for him to meet his end.
Thus Qi You usually wouldn't keep Ji Fengxia by his side, immediately storing her in the ghost-controlling bag, avoiding the erosion from the yin energy.
But Zhou Chen was different.
Zhou Chen, with vigorous vitality from martial arts and abundant yang energy.
Most importantly, what place was this?
This was the Wind and Moon Treasure Mirror!!
Engaging in the matters of wind and moon here not only won't harm the body but would provide immense benefits, greatly advantageous to both sides!
With a thought from Zhou Chen, the surroundings transformed into the boundless starry sky, embellished with sparkling stars, stunningly beautiful.
Holding Ji Fengxia, they lay on a crescent moon-like boat.
The moon rocked like a small boat crossing the starry river.
"So beautiful... humm..."
As Ji Fengxia marveled at the vastness and wonder of the starry sky, Zhou Chen embraced her, inseparable, they indulged and explored the star sea together.
[Wind and Moon Points +69]
[Wind and Moon Points +66]
...
Seeing the sharp increase in Wind and Moon Points, Zhou Chen was thrilled and delighted.
At this rate of increase, wouldn't he be soaring?
Of course.
Zhou Chen knew the first time had a boost, proven by Qin Hongyu.
However, even excluding the initial boost.
Points obtained from Ji Fengxia would undoubtedly exceed Qin Hongyu's.
"Ji Fengxia is considered a ghost cultivator, equivalent to Qi Refining Third Layer."
"The points gathered from her exceeded Qin Hongyu's. Was it because she's a ghost, or due to her extraordinary cultivation?"
"Or perhaps both?"
Zhou Chen couldn't pinpoint it, nor did he dwell much.
With so few targets for reference now, overthinking was pointless.
But after a trip to Snow Moon Square, Zhou Chen confirmed one thing: props had bonuses.
Thus.
Zhou Chen was not stingy with props bonuses.
Outside, obtaining props would be troublesome, but in this Wind and Moon Treasure Mirror, he was akin to a deity.
With a thought, various props he learned from teachers in his past life appeared in his mind, he was well versed in using them.
Like fluently reciting Tang poems, even without creating poetry, one could still sing.
When seen enough, naturally mastered.
"My soul stays here, it's dangerous for the physical body, can I split my consciousness to control the physical body?"
Although Zhou Chen was caught in Ji Fengxia's gentle trap, he did not lose himself, remaining coherent.
He multitasked, indeed splitting a trace of consciousness to control the body.
After all, his soul was in the Wind and Moon Treasure Mirror, still akin to being in the physical body, splitting his consciousness to control the body was not difficult.
"Able to control the body, can I truly multitask?"
Thinking of this, Zhou Chen subtly anticipated and was excited.
He returned all items into a storage bag properly.
"Brother Chen, it's time to bathe!"
Qin Hongyu's voice came from outside,
"The water is already boiled!"
"Coming!"
Zhou Chen exited the room, Qin Hongyu scooped the boiling water from the pot into a wooden barrel, then mixed it with cold water.
In the countryside with limited conditions, baths usually involved filling a wooden barrel with hot water, squatting beside it, and using a towel to scoop water to wash the body!
"Together!"
Zhou Chen filled both wooden barrels with hot water, carrying them to the bathroom, then led Qin Hongyu for a quick wash.
"Ah!"
With Qin Hongyu's exclamation, Zhou Chen directly picked her up and returned to the bedroom.
That night.
Zhou Chen finally understood the meaning of double happiness!
