Big Data Cultivation

Chapter 425: Chapter 425: Always have to be coy

“`

Indeed, the Immortal Cultivation Technique inscribed on the wooden box was none other than the “Supreme Dragon Phoenix Technique.”

This was a thoroughly comprehensive Immortal Cultivation Technique, covering three phases from the Transcendence of the Mortal Coil to the Detachment stage.

Of course, one could guess just from the name that it was yet another dual cultivation technique.

But for Royal Cultivation Techniques, this was normal; after all, as a member of the royal family, the least of one’s concerns was a lack of people.

As an emperor, to indulge on one hand while embarking on the path to immortality on the other—such desires seemed only natural.

What made Feng Jun laugh and cry was that the “Supreme Dragon Phoenix Technique” was meant to be paired with the “Dragon Phoenix Fusion Scripture.”

Well, that wasn’t wrong either—weren’t they both secret manuals within the royal archives, embracing such inclusivity?

In his heart, Feng Jun was actually quite sickened by the royal descendants, who seemed to have an obsession solely concerned with what lay between their legs.

My favorite technique to practice is the way of the saber, not the staff!

This technique also has a characteristic: it can be practiced by both men and women, because Donghua Country once had an Empress.

In fact, the first words inscribed on the wooden box weren’t about the technique itself, but rather about the origins of the technique.

Due to the existence of a female emperor in the past, the royal family kept this technique highly secret, allowing only men to practice it and denying women any contact.

But that wasn’t quite realistic; if one practiced this heart method without a partner of the opposite sex, over time, the Yin and Yang energies could become imbalanced. It would likely become necessary to engage in either Yang Harvesting and Yin Replenishing or Yin Harvesting and Yang Replenishing. Besides, which man doesn’t have a woman he fancies?

Eventually, the royal family switched to practicing the “Taichi Yin-Yang Technique,” which focused more on health preservation, and this technique was shelved.

The first Pavilion Master of the Hundred Flowers Tower was a palace maid expelled by the royal family, and she brought this technique with her.

As for how the Hundred Flowers Tower came to its end, the inscription on the wooden box did not say… This event must have taken place after the emergence of the box.

Feng Jun looked into Mi Yunshan’s peachy eyes, then at the “Supreme Dragon Phoenix Technique” in his hands, feeling incredibly conflicted.

He had always wanted to cultivate Mi Yunshan to the point of Transcendence, and once she started her cultivation, he could then borrow from her experience in the Earth Realm. Otherwise, he might not have stayed this long on this occasion.

Mi Yunshan, at twenty-one, wasn’t that old, was she? Sister Hong and the pleasant Feng Jing were both decidedly older than her.

As for his mother, Zhang Junyi, she was more than twice Mi Yunshan’s age!

Feng Jun already had experience instructing male disciples in the Earth Realm. He figured he would start with Martial Cultivation; after all, such strenuous training would be nothing to a man. By the time they reached the Innate stage, he might have already acquired other Qi Refinement techniques.

If all else failed, taking the path of Martial Enlightenment wasn’t impossible either, since he had experience that he could impart from his parody version of cultivation.

However, instructing women in cultivation was proving to be a headache. First, he had to consider whether to direct them towards Martial Cultivation or Immortal Cultivation?

Feng Jun had numerous Martial Cultivation Techniques at his disposal. After initiating them into the basics, he could pass these techniques on to them. Besides his mother, he could even supplement his female friends’ training with the “Dragon Phoenix Fusion Scripture” to speed up their progression.

Yet, most women were disinterested in Martial Cultivation, and overcoming the hurdle of body tempering was a challenge. Without Body Tempering Pills, the process was too slow, while using them caused intense pain.

If he were to guide them directly into Immortal Cultivation, that introduced another problem—how to initiate these women, who were evidently older, into the Transcendence phase—since Immortal Cultivation demands a high degree of natural aptitude.

The widely available Five Elements Transcendence Technique that Feng Jun possessed was quite generic; but precisely because it was so commonplace, the entry barrier was much stricter. According to Yu Changqing’s words—if employing the Five Elements Transcendence Technique, someone Mi Yunshan’s age could never step into the Transcendence phase.

After five days, Mi Yunshan had not achieved Transcendence. It wasn’t just her growing anxious, Feng Jun was also feeling the urgency—without her Transcendence, there were many techniques he couldn’t replicate, and he’d be unable to fulfill the expectations of the women back in the Earth Realm.

Frankly, the only one he didn’t need to worry about in the Earth Plane was Zhang Caixin, who could cultivate Immortality with ease even if she just casually picked up the Five Elements Transcendence Technique.

For Sister Hong and the delightful Feng Jing, who had a close physical connection to him, Feng Jun was unwilling to take any risks, so he needed some experimental data.

Mi Yunshan’s prospects looked bleak, which depressed him; but in an unlucky twist of fate, he had now stumbled upon a technique that was relatively easier to start with—the “Supreme Dragon Phoenix Technique.”

At this moment, he truly could help her. As long as he was willing to engage in dual cultivation with her, helping her enter Transcendence would not be difficult.

But that’s when Feng Jun hesitated. Was it really appropriate to accelerate her cultivation in such a simple and crude manner…?

He told himself he was simply pioneering a path for Sister Hong and Feng Jing on Mi Yunshan’s terms. After a successful experiment with her, it would be easier to manage when he returned, avoiding unnecessary detours.

But… he really found it hard to take action, mainly because he lacked any feeling for it, and watching her cry only weakened his resolve even further.

He asked himself: Why did he insist on experimenting in the Mobile Phone plane? Aren’t Earthlings human, and aren’t the natives here human too?

Until now, in his mind, the Earth Plane had always taken precedence over this place because, after all, it was his home.

“`

And to be honest, there was so much killing in the mobile phone plane that he’d gradually become accustomed to it, and he no longer took the lives of people here seriously.

In a nutshell, he didn’t want to push Mi Yunshan away, so he found himself an excuse—after all, a life is a life, and he intended to treat them all equally.

Seeing that he remained silent, Mi Yunshan’s tears wouldn’t stop flowing, yet she didn’t dare to make a sound. In her swollen, red eyes, there was nothing but despair and a sense of death. At that moment, her expression and aura resembled Lin Daiyu, who had burnt her manuscripts and severed her love.

Feng Jun couldn’t help but soften his heart again and huffed lightly, “Fine, it’s just the Transcendence Realm, isn’t it? This little matter won’t stump me.”

Mi Yunshan had gotten used to crying, her tears simply wouldn’t stop, and her thoughts had also become sluggish. It took her a good ten breaths of time before she suddenly looked up at him with a glimmer of hope in her eyes, tremblingly asking, “Can you really help me?”

As she asked this question, her tears continued to pour down, and her voice was extremely faint.

Feng Jun’s face darkened, and he asked with a hint of dissatisfaction, “Are you doubting me?”

“I, I wouldn’t dare,” replied Mi Yunshan, her body trembling slightly, whether from fright or excitement she couldn’t tell. She stammered, “I hope, I hope… I hope the Divine Doctor will forgive me.”

“Alright, you can go now,” Feng Jun said impatiently, waving his hand dismissively. He really didn’t like to see women cry, “Remember to rest and recuperate for two days, adjust your emotions. If you keep being like this, I can’t help you.”

“I understand,” Mi Yunshan said, tears still streaming down, “I will adjust as soon as possible.”

“Then why are you still crying?” Feng Jun was getting annoyed, his voice growing stricter.

“I’ll stop, I’ll stop right away,” Mi Yunshan didn’t want to keep crying either, but she just couldn’t help it. Hearing him say this, she felt even more aggrieved inside, “I, I’m crying because I’m happy.”

“Go on, get out,” Feng Jun waved his hand and then emphasized again, “Don’t tell anyone else… If you do, I’m really done with you.”

Whether it’s Soaring Dragon Dominating Phoenix or Dragon Phoenix Supreme, both Cultivation Techniques were very rare in this plane and rumored to be quite effective. If she couldn’t keep her mouth shut, it would be easy for others to guess that she had obtained the Royal Family’s heritage.

He wasn’t afraid to talk about the origins of Soaring Dragon Dominating Phoenix, but the Supreme Dragon Phoenix Method was far too sensitive.

Although Mi Yunshan cried as if the world were ending, she still had some sense left, “Rest assured, I’ve already become the laughingstock of my clan, going from genius to trash. I don’t hate them, but I won’t reveal the secret of my newfound strength.”

Watching her turn to leave, Feng Jun frowned again, thinking that the Shadow Physique was specialized in assassination and excelled at hiding and being cold-hearted. Was he dealing with a fake Shadow Physique?

Yet violating such a weak woman… seemed somewhat appealing?

He felt something was wrong with him, was this a result of being pent up for too long?

The next moment, he exited the mobile phone realm.

Then he had to face the message from Feng Jing on WeChat, “Finished this afternoon’s work ahead of time [Happy].”

Before exiting, he was still worrying about how to navigate between her and Sister Hong, but after a trip to the mobile phone plane, he felt the Earth Realm was almost too peaceful by comparison.

So, he replied very straightforwardly to the WeChat message, “Do you need me to pick you up?”

Feng Jing replied quickly as well, “No need to pick me up, I can give little Shi Shi a lesson today… Not sure if it’s convenient for you?”

Little Shi Shi was the nickname they had for Li Shishi in private, a play on words that only worked in writing, and one of the joys shared behind closed doors, not something to be told to others.

Feng Jun responded directly, “Sister Hong is here, she’s currently sleeping.”

He didn’t want to keep up the charade any longer; life is short, his even more so since he spanned across two planes, making it even shorter. What was the point of being secretive? Or did he really think the other person was a fool?

There was no need to be stingy, they could either stay together if they were compatible or part ways if not. Anyway, he didn’t think he was a good person. He just needed to make sure his conscience was clear.

Feng Jing clearly sensed something unexpected, and after a while, she sent over a string of punctuation, “…..”

Then followed another message, “Then I’m off to play, 88.”

Feng Jun’s reply was ready in advance, “Don’t go, I haven’t practiced yoga in a long time, I feel all stiff and need some stretching exercise. I really miss you, there’s a new surprise this time [Grin].”

Feng Jing seemed reserved, but in reality, she had little resistance to such teasing, being a married woman and one who had tasted the pleasures. After a pause, she finally asked, “You didn’t ‘practice yoga’ with your Sister Hong?”

They had practiced, but Feng Jun was a smart man. He bluntly replied, “It’s been a long time… really.”

Feng Jing was silent again, and Feng Jun thought perhaps she was angry because he hadn’t denied the possibility of ‘practicing yoga’ with Sister Hong.

But the next moment, she messaged back, “I can’t believe a word you say. The new surprise you mentioned… It wouldn’t be asking me to join both you and your Sister Hong in ‘flying’ together again, would it?”

Damn, this married woman really is different! Feng Jun’s mouth twitched as he quickly replied, “No way, it’s really a new surprise. Of course, if you insist… I’ll discuss it with Sister Hong and see if she agrees.”
