Realizing This Is A Wuxia World After Cultivating For 300 Years

Chapter 13: A Suitable Path

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Cui Heng felt a little melancholic as he returned to his solitary life.

After all, before Hong Fugui came here, he had only lived here for 10 years. But prior to Jiang Qiqi’s arrival, he had already lived here alone for 90 years.

Thus, the feeling they gave Cui Heng was very different.

In these 90 years of lonely life, he had not spoken a single word for 30 years.

He had almost forgotten the feeling of living as a human.

It was precisely Jiang Qiqi, this guest who accidentally entered this place, that allowed him to regain his experience as a human.

It allowed Cui Heng to clearly realize that he wasn’t an extraordinary Immortal, but someone with flesh and blood and emotional fluctuations.

In fact, this was what he hoped for.

Cultivators could obtain great strength and longevity, but he did not want to become a heartless, emotionless, and ignorant piece of rock.

Living a long life did not mean that one should become a piece of fossil. Life also required fun.

Because of this, Cui Heng changed his cultivation method.

In the past, he would only meditate and cultivate according to the routine. He would absorb spiritual energy to refine into Dharmic powers to nourish his soul. All the trivial matters would be handed over to the Yellow-scarved Strongman. At most, he would play games to relax. He would hardly notice any changes in the aspect of “human nature.”

In such a life, cultivation was the most important thing. It took up more than half of the day.

It was practically a self-imposed isolation.

Cui Heng did not intend to continue living like this.

He felt that besides cultivating hard, he should also work hard on another aspect—

Letting himself retain the feeling of being a human, and preserve the mental state of being a living person!

Hence, Cui Heng started to regulate his work and rest. He would work at sunrise and rest at sunset.

He cooked and cleaned every day. He even plowed a new patch of field in his farm and started to grow his own crops and vegetables.

It was a pity that the meat produced in the Beginner’s Farm were all finished products. Otherwise, he would have tried raising pigs.

Even though this sort of life caused his cultivation time to become shorter, Cui Heng felt happy and relaxed.

Furthermore, the progress of his cultivation did not slow down. In fact, it was even faster.

In just 30 years, he not only completed the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, but he also broke through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment smoothly.

It was as if there was no bottleneck.

This had completely exceeded Cui Heng’s expectations, and it allowed him to confirm from this that this path of cultivation was the most suitable path for him right now.

The facts proved that his judgment was correct.

After understanding this path, Cui Heng’s cultivation speed was like a thousand-li horse growing wings—he advanced by leaps and bounds!

It had only been 20 years since he broke through to late-stage Foundation Establishment, but he had already reached the peak of Foundation Establishment!

The Dao foundation in his dantian had already transformed into a golden ocean. His divine soul and Dharmic powers were no longer separated. All he needed to do was ignite true fire in this golden ocean and he would be able to calcine a round, shining golden core!

Right now, Cui Heng could mobilize the energy of the heavens and the earth within a radius of 10-li with a single thought, and the fluctuations of his emotions could directly interfere with the phenomena of the heavens and the earth. Calling the wind and summoning the rain was as easy as flipping one’s hand, and every move he made possessed the might of nature.

The power of the sword art had also become much stronger.

With a casual slash of his sword, he could create a 50-li-long ravine on the ground. If he used a flying sword, he could even flatten a mountain that was hundreds of meters tall!

If this was on Earth, it wouldn’t be too much for him to be considered as a god.

However, even though he’d grasped such strength, Cui Heng’s mental state was still very stable, and he didn’t feel carried away at all.

He did not forget that the world he had come to was actually a Xianxia world, and it was extremely dangerous.

He was merely at the peak of Foundation Establishment. He was not even an ant.

Of course, being able to maintain such a mentality was also because he had been trying his best to retain the feeling of being a human for the past few decades.

Otherwise, in an environment that was isolated from the rest of the world and he was constantly becoming stronger, it was inevitable that he would lose himself in this growing power.

In turn, he would develop wishful thinking and forget about caution.

Before Jiang Qiqi came, he already had this kind of mentality.

Fortunately, he managed to restrain himself in time.

No matter what, I must never forget my situation. Cui Heng warned himself in his heart.

At this moment, he had just finished his cultivation for the day and was currently reviewing the changes in his mental state. He was thinking about the recent changes in his mental state.

If he discovered any problems, he could correct them in time.

This was a warning, and also the wake-up call he gave himself every day.

“It’s getting late.” Cui Heng stood up and looked out the window. The sun was setting and night was about to fall. “Let’s go pick some tomatoes and stir-fry them.”

In the blink of an eye, he’d prepared dinner for himself, just like half a year ago.

Yes, he had been eating scrambled eggs with tomatoes for half a year.

It was an easy meal and it saves trouble!

After all, laziness was part of human nature.

However, when Cui Heng arrived at the vegetable garden he was cultivating, he suddenly felt that the weather had changed. Even the clouds in the sky were dyed with a strange purple-red color.

“Looks like it’s time to add another dish.” His lips curled into a smile.

It didn’t matter if he only ate one dish, but if it was used to treat guests, there had to be more variations.

Well, I’ll just add a plain omelet.

It’s not bad either.

...

“What’s going on? Wasn’t I just studying at home?”

Pei Qingshu frowned and looked around, his expression uncertain. “I was brought to this completely unfamiliar place in the blink of an eye. What kind of mystical ability is this? Unbelievable!”

Although he came from an extraordinary background and was experienced and knowledgeable, the current situation had already completely exceeded the scope of his knowledge, and he was unable to comprehend it.

Even the legendary Immortal Almighty could not do such a thing.

“The most important thing now is to figure out where this place is, who brought me here, and what their purpose is!”

Pei Qingshu calmed himself down very quickly. He turned the wheelchair around and tried to move.

His legs were disabled.

He could only sit in the wheelchair.

An unfortunate incident in the past had caused this 13 year old youth to lose the qualifications to stand on his own legs. However, it had also caused him to be much calmer than his peers when he encountered an emergency.

Pei Qingshu wheeled himself through the forest and followed a path that was obviously taken by someone. Soon, he found a vegetable garden.

He saw a youth dressed in coarse linen clothes, currently picking vegetables in the garden… a peasant youth?

But before he could ask, the young farmer seemed to have sensed his gaze and stopped what he was doing. He turned around and threw a red fruit over.

“What is this?” Pei Qing Shu held this red fruit with a stunned expression. With his status, he had actually never seen this fruit before.

“Something that will let you stand up,” the young farmer said with a smile.
