Shen Yuan, fresh from retreat, didn’t feel like fussing over the kitten’s little tricks. He passively accepted Gong Buyu’s nickname for Bai Xue.

Settling down at the stone table under the jujube tree, Shen Yuan looked at Gong Buyu and said in low tones:

“You’ve been my disciple for more than a month, and during that time I haven’t taught you anything. On the contrary, you’ve made a standout performance at the Dao Conference, enhancing the reputation of the Falling Clouds Sect.

After coming back, you also diligently took care of Bai Xue, which indeed is commendable.

In our Falling Clouds Sect, we always reward according to efforts. If you need anything, feel free to voice it.”

Shen Yuan’s words didn’t hold an iota of falsehood.

Although at the beginning, Shen Yuan saw Gong Buyu as a burden, being a suspicious agent from Gong Buhuo, he paid attention to her performance over time.

Her exceptional talent exceeded her peers, her reverence for her master and the way she took any order from Shen Yuan seriously and followed through, her humility in taking care of Bai Xue and immersing herself in Wenn City’s mundane world. All of these actions were beyond perfect.

With a disciple like this, what else could Shen Yuan ask for?

However, Gong Buyu merely shook her head, again bowing slightly to Shen Yuan, her normally expressive eyes reflecting an unprecedented seriousness.

“Having just joined you as your disciple, you already dispelled any issues caused by millennia of ice seal on my talent. This is a huge favor from you. How could I dare to expect a reward from you?”

Gong Buyu’s serious demeanor stirred something in Shen Yuan’s heart, causing him to laugh lightly:

“That was just a welcoming gift I gave you when you became my disciple, unrelated to the reward I’m speaking of now.”

Saying this, Shen Yuan expected Gong Buyu to refuse again. Anticipating this, he quickly changed his approach:

“Well, you’ve been in my school for over a month, and aside from unlocking your talent, I haven’t taught you any special techniques. I must admit I’ve been a bit negligent as a master.

If you refuse to accept rewards, then let me teach you a secret technique as compensation.”

Gong Buyu slightly faltered and was about to speak when Shen Yuan, with a twinkle in his eye, said:

“If you even refuse me, your master, teaching you a technique—do you not want me as your master?”

Seeing Shen Yuan’s mock accusation, Gong Buyu dared not refuse.

“I will follow the master’s orders!”

Shen Yuan nodded in satisfaction, waved his sleeve, and the falling leaves under the jujube tree quickly gathered, shaping into a golden cushion in front of Gong Buyu.

Gong Buyu looked on and sat on the cushion, readying herself to listen.

“Since you’ve reached the Peak of Qi Refining, you should be focusing on forming your Yin God to reach the Spirit Transmutation Stage.

However, since the Spirit Energy in this world isn’t sufficient, the next Spirit Energy Tidal Surge is not due for some time. If you remain at the Qi Refining Peak, it will be a waste of cultivation time.

I’ll pave another cultivation path for you at the very Peak of Qi Refining!”

Shen Yuan’s voice was calm, but his words were like a thunderclap in Gong Buyu’s ears.

“Another cultivation path beyond the Peak of Qi Refining?”

Before Gong Buyu could digest what was happening, Shen Yuan continued:

“The world knows that Refining Qi to Spirit Transmutation is the second step of the Four Steps of Immortality Ascension. Once you’ve reached the Peak of Qi Refining, there’s nothing else to do but to gather Divine Sense for the formation of the Yin God.

This is an extremely flawed way of thinking.”

“The three realms of Essence Refining, Qi Transformation, and Qi training all originated from the ancient Path of Refinement. This points directly to the path of immortality in the Immortal Realm, and its potential might not fall short compared to the current Four Steps of Immortality Ascension.

The so-called Qi Training Stage is nothing more than a starting point in ancient cultivation.”

“The key reason why everyone uses the Peak of Qi Refining as the limit is because, to go beyond, one has to comprehend the laws of Heaven and Earth, and understand the Qi of Heaven and Earth. Ordinary cultivators simply cannot access the Qi of Heaven and Earth.

Since you now control the Central World Qi of Late Winter, you totally have the chance to venture further down the Path of Refinement.”

Gong Buyu listened attentively to Shen Yuan’s lecture, not showing a hint of doubt or confusion.

Seeing this, Shen Yuan paused, asking:

“The method of cultivation I explained is slightly different from the current way of cultivation. You don’t have any doubts?

Especially regarding whether understanding the Qi of Heaven and Earth will influence the formation of the Yin God—don’t you have any questions?”

Gong Buyu blinked and chuckled.

“How could something my master told me be wrong?”

Gong Buyu always had unconditional faith in Shen Yuan.

This somehow made Shen Yuan dumbfounded for a moment.

With a twitching corner of the mouth, Shen Yuan regained his composure and said:

“The reason I’m opening the Path of Refinement for you is because you and Late Winter are already inseparable. For you, it’s very easy to enter the True Monarch Stage.

If you want to improve further, you must understand the essence of Late Winter, thus seeking the right Dao for you. This is a necessary path for you to go through. I’m merely making you start early.”

The realization finally dawned in Gong Buyu’s eyes.

The next moment, Shen Yuan raised his right hand and his index finger lightly touched Gong Buyu’s brow.

“Coagulate your spirit… give method!”

Gong Buyu focused her mind and immediately sensed a deluge of information rushing into her consciousness.

The methods, usages, and demonstrations of the Base of the Path of Refinement, the Primordial Elemental Qi, and the understanding of the Qi of Heaven and Earth…all kinds of information flashed through Gong Buyu’s mind until, in the end, a method appeared before her.

“Moon’s Truth-condensing Breathing Method”

“The secret technique I’ve given you was tailored specifically for you during my retreat.”
