Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 8: Love-Breaking Pill Formula

After dealing with the body, Chen An immediately went back to his room to check on his wife's condition.

Hmm, just as expected, his young wife was lying on the bed sleeping soundly.

After all, she had been too tired during the day, so it was inevitable that she would sleep deeply at night and not be easily awakened.

Leaving the room, Chen An went to the bathroom and took a hot bath to wash away the smell of blood from his body.

Leaning against the tub wall, he looked at his golden fingers and still felt incredulous.

The destructive power of this Goldfinger was too high.

As long as he could get close, it was basically a death sentence for anyone he stabbed.

The premise was that the difference in cultivation level wasn't too great.

"Just at the entry level, it already has such power. I wonder how exaggerated the strength of this Goldfinger will be after breaking through to the proficient level."

Chen An was looking forward to it and planned to diligently improve the proficiency of his Goldfinger starting from tomorrow.

He aimed to break through to the proficient level as soon as possible to see how powerful it would be.

...

The next day.

Chen An woke up from the bed and found his young wife, who had been sleeping with him, clinging to him like an octopus, her little face looking peaceful in her sleep.

The sun was already shining, and she was still lying in bed sleeping. She didn't know when to get up and do some work.

This lazy young wife needed to be educated properly.

After burning an incense stick.

After getting out of bed, Chen An freshened up quickly, ate something to fill his stomach, and soon went to the yard to practice his Goldfinger.

Stabbing everywhere, stabbing whatever he saw.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed.

During this period, Chen An poked thousands of holes in the ground, turned tree trunks into hornet nests, and crushed stones into powder.

But when he checked the progress bar, he was extremely disappointed.

[Goldfinger: Entry Level (3/100)]

After practicing continuously for 13 days, with high-intensity training for 24 hours each day, he only managed to increase his proficiency by 2 points.

At this rate, it would take forever to break through to the proficient level.

Chen An was extremely worried.

Only now did he finally understand why the Goldfinger spell, which was so powerful, was sold so cheaply for 100 low-grade spirit stones.

If it was so difficult to train, it couldn't possibly be valuable.

"Forget it, I won't practice it anymore. Instead of wasting time on this damn Goldfinger, it's better to practice more alchemy and earn money to buy more elixirs that can improve my cultivation level."

Chen An shook his head.

After that, he went back to his room to find his young wife and relieve his frustration.

(Note: The translation provided is a literal translation and may not capture the full meaning or nuances of the original text.)

After an unknown amount of time, Chen An turned over and lay flat on the bamboo bed, his face filled with contentment.

No worries about food and drink, having a house and a wife.

Compared to his previous life, his current life was simply too happy to be expressed in words.

The only downside was that this world was full of crises, especially unfriendly to low-level cultivators, and it was difficult to guarantee their safety.

Hmm, set a small goal, break through to the first-level advanced stage of the alchemy realm as soon as possible.

In this way, the income from alchemy would increase significantly, and he should have the ability to move to the core area to live.

Thoughts are better put into action.

Chen An immediately got dressed and got out of bed, intending to go to the alchemy room for intense alchemy.

If tired from alchemy on the bed, then alchemy in the alchemy room. If tired from alchemy in the alchemy room, then alchemy on the bed.

Doing both at the same time, continuously in a cycle.

In this way, the alchemy realm could be improved faster.

"Husband, it's still early, can we lie down for a while longer?"

Seeing her husband about to get up and leave, Song Huaying immediately clung to his arm and coquettishly pleaded.

Chen An felt that everything should have a limit and planned to refuse his wife's excessive request.

But suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and remembered the spell he had just learned, "Goldfinger," which could be used to show his wife and divert her attention.

"Yinger, I recently learned a very powerful spell that can create a dazzling golden light."

"Husband, what spell is it?"

"I'll show you right now."

[You use the spell "Goldfinger" on your wife, Song Huaying. In an instant, the room is filled with a dazzling golden light, leaving her amazed. Goldfinger proficiency +1.]

What's going on?

Chen An looked at the sudden prompt in front of him and couldn't help but be stunned.

But soon, he became excited.

So this is the correct way to improve Goldfinger proficiency!

It's really a case of finding something when you least expect it!

"Husband, just now I felt like I saw a celestial being descending from the heavens. I want to see it again!"

Song Huaying's face blushed, both excited and eager.

Chen An looked at his wife, then at his own fingers, immediately mobilizing his spiritual power and once again creating a dazzling golden light, transforming into the celestial being in his wife's imagination.

[Goldfinger proficiency +1]

[Goldfinger proficiency +1]

[...]

Time flew by.

Several days later, Chen An sat on the bamboo bed, looking at the prompt messages that appeared in front of him.

[Goldfinger: Beginner (39/100)]

[Alchemy: First-level Intermediate (256/500)]

[Wife: Song Huaying]

[Attributes: Gratitude, Reciprocation]

[Emotions: 1 star (95/100)]

[Provided alchemy experience: 247]

[Provided Goldfinger proficiency: 36]

"In just a few days, Goldfinger's proficiency has increased by 36 points."

Chen An looked at the prompt message about Goldfinger proficiency, looked at his shining golden fingers, and then looked at his satisfied wife on the bed. He couldn't help but feel a mix of laughter and tears in his heart.

Sometimes, luck is just lacking.

Days of hard practice were useless.

But when performing for his wife, it worked.

Soon, his gaze turned to other prompt messages.

The progress bar for alchemy realm is over halfway, and he can break through in at most one or two months.

The relationship level is also not far from 2 stars, just 5 more experience points to level up.

The future looks promising.

At this moment, a knocking sound came from outside the room.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

"Master Chen Dan, there's business!"

"Big business!"

Chen An quickly got dressed and went to the window to talk to the customer outside about the business.

Indeed, it was a big business.

The other party wanted to refine a lot of pills.

It would take at least a whole day.

Just the processing fee alone would be as high as 20 low-grade spirit stones.

"By the way, Master Chen Dan, have you heard? Recently, 6 Fellow Daoists in our area have gone missing, one of them being a Qi Refining fourth level cultivator. They have all disappeared without a trace, making everyone fearful."

The customer outside suddenly said.

Chen An remained calm and said, "Maybe they went out to hunt blood demons."

The customer waved his hand and said, "That's not possible. Although this is just the cheap area of Bamboo Leaf Forest, everyone who enters or exits has to register."

"According to the person in charge of registration, those 6 Fellow Daoists have been staying in Bamboo Leaf Forest and haven't left."

"Master Chen Dan, I suspect that someone in our area has bad intentions. It's possible that they couldn't pay the rent and targeted their own people, resorting to robbery and murder."

As the customer spoke, even he himself became a little scared.

Chen An just smiled and didn't say anything.

After finalizing the remaining details of the transaction with the customer, he turned and entered the alchemy room to start intense alchemy to make money.

...

The next day, early morning.

Chen An stood by the window, maintaining a distance, and exchanged money and goods with the customer from yesterday, earning 20 low-grade spirit stones.

Unknowingly, his savings increased again.

A total of 38 low-grade spirit stones.

On average, he could earn about 6 low-grade spirit stones a day.

The future looks promising once again.

Chen An put away the 20 low-grade spirit stones, turned around, and went into the room to enjoy intimate moments with his wife.

[You give your wife Song Huaying a massage, relationship +1.]

[You use Goldfinger on your wife Song Huaying, Goldfinger proficiency +1.]

[You...alchemy experience +1.]

[You...Goldfinger proficiency +1.]

[You...Goldfinger proficiency +1.]

[...]

[You praise your wife Song Huaying's cooking skills, eating three bowls of rice, relationship +1.]

[You...Goldfinger proficiency +1.]

[You...alchemy experience +1.]

[...]

As the relationship grew, it unintentionally continued to grow for several days.

That night, Chen An lay in bed with his wife in his arms, and had the idea to check his progress bar data.

[Goldfinger: Beginner (55/100)]

[Alchemy: First Tier Intermediate (286/500)]

[Wife: Song Huaying]

[Attribute: Dripping water of kindness, spring in return]

[Relationship: 2 stars (101/500)]

[Provided alchemy experience: 276]

[Provided Goldfinger proficiency: 52]

"The heavens reward those who work hard. After so many days of effort, I finally raised the relationship level to 2 stars."

Looking at the level behind the relationship bar, Chen An felt a sense of accomplishment.

To confirm that the relationship level was indeed related to the amount of alchemy experience gained after each time, he lowered his head and looked at his wife nestled in his arms, speaking gently, "Yinger, let's take a bath together later."

"Yes, I'll go boil the water."

Song Huaying lightly touched Chen An's face and then immediately got out of bed to go to the kitchen to boil water.

Before long, the water was ready.

Chen An brought the wooden tub with the water at the right temperature into the room, wanting to bathe together with his wife.

After both of them got into the tub, Chen An asked his wife to sit in front of him so he could give her a back rub, allowing her to also enjoy the wonderful feeling of being cared for by her lover.

After two sticks of incense worth of time.

[Alchemy experience +2.]

As expected, just like his speculation, when the relationship level reached 2 stars, the amount of alchemy experience gained after each time also increased.

Chen An was still immersed in the joy of successfully confirming his speculation when another prompt message suddenly appeared.

[Your wife Song Huaying is pregnant.]

[You receive a reward of a formula for the Broken Love Pill.]
