Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny - Chapter 43

Chapter 43: The Twinkling Lights of the City

Bam!

A deep, muffled sound came from within Xue An.

It was a sound that came from deep within his muscles and bones. This also meant that Xue An had finally taken his first step on the path to cultivation.

Though this was still thousands of miles away from the path of an immortal lord, it was still a step forward.

The so-called Patriarch were people who cultivated all their strength in their entire body. As such, they were able to do everything that ordinary people could not.

The Unfettered, on the other hand, were people whose entire body had been compacted together to become one whole. Every single movement, no matter how small, would bring with it an extremely great power.

More importantly, the moment one stepped into the Realm of the Unfettered, one would be able to live to a hundred and fifty years.

This was a great temptation.

This was why the ordinary people called this the state of being an Unfettered.

But Xue An knew that this was far from enough.

He understood that the path of cultivation was divided into the following steps: the Realm of Patriarch, the Realm of the Unfettered, the Realm of the Celestial, the Realm of Scattered Immortals, the Realm of Longevity, the Realm of the Golden Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, Grand Luo Immortal, Immortal King, Immortal Emperor, Immortal Lord, and then finally, it was the legendary Realm of the Saints.

Now it was just a matter of taking the first step.

Meanwhile, Song Yi was slowly regaining his consciousness. There was envy and shock written all over his face.

This was the first time he was seeing someone breakthrough to the Realm of the Unfettered within such a short period of time.

This person, in particular, was at most in his twenties. If the news spread about his accomplishment, everyone who heard it would be incredibly shocked.

“Once one steps into the Realm of the Unfettered, one will become an immortal!” Song Yi was muttering to himself.

As soon as Xue An stood up, he could feel that his body was ten times stronger. He also felt completely energized, almost as if he had the world in his hands.

But Xue An’s state of mind was as solid as a rock. In an instant, he had completely dispelled these illusions.

Now, sitting on the banks of the lake, he had even gathered different kinds of medicinal herbs that he could use to refine the Core Reinforcement Pill.

Now that Xue An had broken through and stepped into the Realm of the Unfettered, the speed at which he could refine pills had also increased tremendously.

Almost within the blink of an eye, Xue An had already refined the piles of precious medicinal herbs into fluids. He then began to work on further refining the fluids and transforming them into the pills he wanted.

Xue Lan, who was standing on the sidelines, was so dazzled by what she was looking at. She felt that her worldview was greatly expanding by these amazing sights.

Song Yi was even more shocked.

Xue An’s breakthrough to the Realm of the Unfettered was an incredible thing to witness. And now, seeing him refine the pills left Song Yi feeling so faint that he felt like he wanted to fall to his knees.

Basically, the famous sects all knew how to refine pills. But the process of refining the pills included long and tedious preparations and activities like fasting and bathing. Only after going through the preparations can they finally ignite the fire and start to refine the pills.

And even after going through all that, there was still a very high probability of failure.

This was also the reason why, up till this present day, not many people could afford to eat these pills. They were mainly reserved for the disciples of a few major sects.

The pills were also much too expensive for everyday people.

The technique of refining pills was a secret that was not meant to be shared.

But Song Yi studied Mr. Xue. His movements looked like floating clouds and flowing water, and just like that, the pills were ready within the blink of an eye.

Poof.

A dozen or so pills fell into Xue An’s hands. They emanated a distinct fragrance.

The entire process took less than five minutes. It happened so quickly and the refining of the pills was successfully completed.

Song Yi was dumbstruck by the success rate and efficiency.

At this point in time, Xue Nian was salivating. “Papa, what is this? It smells so good,” she asked her father.

Xue An gave a small smile and then, he did something that almost caused Song Yi’s eyes to pop out of his head.

He gave Xue Xiang and Xue Nian a pill each.

“Try it to see how it tastes.”

“Yes, yes!”

The two little girls, each took a pill and popped them into their mouths, just like they were eating peanuts.

Song Yi was on the verge of tears.

If these pills were placed out in the open, the disciples of the major sects would fight tooth and nail to get their hands on them.

An yet, this Mr. Xue had simply given the pills to his two daughters to eat as snacks.

Meanwhile, Xue An had walked up to Xue Lan. He handed her a pill as well.

“Take one and have a try.”

Xue Lan felt a little embarrassed and was just about to decline the offer.

Song Yi said gloomily, “Miss, just eat it. This is your great fortune!”

Xue Lan hesitated for a moment before willingly swallowing the pill.

Soon!

Xue Lan felt a bout of pain in her stomach. Then she went red in the face and ran away to a distant spot.

After a while, she returned somewhat shyly.

By now, all the toxins, from head to toe, had been expelled out of her body.

Just like a flawless piece of jade, she was clean and clear both inside and out.

Above all else, this one pill was enough to extend the young woman’s lifespan by fifty years, and her youth would last forever.

Song Yi was close to salivating with envy.

Xue An simply cast him an indifferent look.

Song Yi hurriedly lowered his head respectfully.

“Why aren’t you leaving with Chen Rushi?”

Song Yi smiled bitterly and said, “Now that Young Master Huo is dead, it will be hard for me to escape death if I return to Middle Capital. It’s better for me to stay here.”

In fact, there was one more thing that Song Yi did not say. When he had just regained his consciousness a while ago, Chen Rushi wanted to take him away.

But Song Yi had secretly attempted to read his future.

The trigram had told him that his misfortune and blessings were hard to predict, but there was a great opportunity awaiting him.

As for how big this opportunity was…

Song Yi was not too sure.

Xue An did not say anything.

He did not dislike Song Yi, but neither did he take a fancy to him.

To put it bluntly, this was just another cultivator who wandered from one rich family to the other by virtue of the skills he had.

“How long have I been meditating?”

“Papa, you have been sitting there for a long time,” Xue Xiang said.

“Oh. Weren’t the two of you bored?”

“Not at all! In the past, my sister and I often stayed at home for the entire day,” Xue Xiang said.

Xue An felt a pang of pain in his heart. When he had been away, these two little girls had been made to suffer so much.

Although Tang Xuan’er had raised them well, she still needed to go out to earn money. The children would have had no choice but to stay at home by themselves.

Thinking about this, Xue An bent down and picked up his daughters. With a smile, he said, “Then Papa will take the two of you down the mountain!”

With that, Xue An tapped his toe against the ground and his entire being charged up into the sky.

At the same time, he left Song Yi with instructions. “Take Lan’er down the mountain!”

Xue Lan looked up and watched dazedly as Xue An disappeared into the distance.

Song Yi turned to her and said with utmost reverence, “Miss Lan’er, let’s go down the mountain!”

“Brother An… Has he become an immortal?” Xue Lan murmured.

Song Yi shook his head and let out a soft sigh. Then he said, “Not exactly an immortal, but it’s somewhat similar. Mr. Xue has a kind of aura around him that always deter anyone from treating him contemptuously. His future achievements are simply unimaginable!”

Song Yi was so emotional that he simply had to share his thoughts.

Xue Lan, on the other hand, was filled with a mix of emotions.

At this point, the last trace of a young maiden’s fantasy had gradually diminished.

Because she knew that the gap between herself and Brother An, was as large as the distance between the clouds in the sky and the soil on the ground.

Meanwhile, Xue An and his two daughters were flying through the air.

Of course, such strength would not be found in the Realm of the Unfettered.

But with Xue An’s strength, all this was a piece of cake.

The two little girls were filled with excitement as they looked at the white moon and the countless stars that filled the sky.

“Papa, the moon is so big!”

“Yes, and it looks like a piece of half-eaten hotcake!” The thought of eating was always on Xue Nian’s mind.

Xue An smiled gently and said, “Close your eyes, Papa will perform another magic trick for the two of you.”

“Okay, okay!”

The two little girls closed their eyes obediently.

There was a flash of light in Xue An’s eyes. Suddenly, a huge curtain of light appeared beneath his feet.

The light curtain was like a piece of glass that was floating in mid-air.

Xue An released his hold and put his two daughters on the light curtain.

“Done!”

The two little girls opened their eyes and were greeted by an extremely beautiful scene.

The light curtain perfectly reflected everything in the sky. The moon and the stars looked like embellishments on its surface.

It was as though two skies had appeared.

Xue Xiang took a cautious step forward and realized that it was like walking on even ground. Then together with Xue Nian, the two began to run about excitedly.

Xue An smiled and looked at his two daughters.

Beneath their feet, were the twinkling lights of the city and the view of the mortal world!
