Longevity Gu Dao: Start From Refining Infatuation Gu

Chapter 8: Ji Bingyu's Origins, the Former Gold Core Family

One night passed, the clouds dispersed and the rain stopped.

"You dual-cultivated with your Dao companion eight times last night, and your hearts connected, deepening your love."

"You gained a certain level of swordsmanship experience, and your spiritual root aptitude has improved to a certain extent."

"You gained the true elemental power of the other person, and your cultivation has improved to a certain extent."

At this moment, a message came from the depths of Zhou Sui's sea of consciousness. After a night of dual cultivation, he sensed that the true elemental power within his body had greatly increased.

If he were to cultivate diligently, it would probably take several months to achieve even a slight increase in true elemental energy.

But now, after just one night of dual cultivation, his cultivation had improved.

If he continued like this, it wouldn't take long for him to advance to the third level of Qi Refining.

The reason for his rapid progress was undoubtedly Ji Bingyu.

As a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining, the true elemental power within her body was many times greater than his. Even if only a little was infused into him, it would greatly benefit him.

It was like taking a Qi-boosting pill every day, and it had no side effects.

There was no doubt that the power of the Infatuation Gu was simply unimaginable. After obtaining the Infatuation Gu, it was even more miraculous than any dual cultivation technique. Their powers could merge and complement each other.

What was even more important was that Zhou Sui sensed that there were many more knowledge about swordsmanship in the depths of his sea of consciousness. If he were to devour and digest all this knowledge about swordsmanship, he could also become a master of swordsmanship.

"Husband, you're really amazing."

Ji Bingyu looked at Zhou Sui affectionately, her eyes filled with love.

Although each dual cultivation session did not improve her cultivation, she sensed that the power of her spiritual consciousness was constantly growing. It seemed that if she continued like this, she could grow into a Foundation Building spiritual consciousness.

This was of great benefit to her future Foundation Building.

The reason for this benefit was naturally because of the immense soul power within Zhou Sui. Due to his status as a transmigrator, his soul power was exceptionally strong, far beyond what an ordinary cultivator could compare to.

Her love for him grew stronger and stronger, almost reaching an unwavering level.

"By the way, Yuer, now that we're married, can you tell me where you're really from?" Zhou Sui asked curiously. Until now, he still didn't know where Ji Bingyu was from.

As his Dao companion, he naturally had the obligation to understand everything about her.

"I am from the Ji family of the Jin Kingdom, and the Ji family used to be a Gold Core family," Ji Bingyu explained. "But unfortunately, our Ji family's patriarch died due to the depletion of his lifespan, and there hasn't been a new Gold Core cultivator born in a short period of time. This led to our Ji family being coveted by external enemies.

As a result, one dark and stormy night, our Ji family was attacked by another Gold Core family, the Ouyang family. Our entire family was completely annihilated.

Fortunately, the Ji family had known about this in advance, so we had already dispersed our members to various places. As a direct descendant, I followed my parents in fleeing.

Unfortunately, the Ouyang family did not let us go and continuously sent cultivators to hunt us down. As a result, one by one, my clan members died, including my parents. In the end, only I, Ji Bingyu, was left.

In order to avoid the pursuit of the Ouyang family, I traveled a long distance, leaving the Jin Kingdom. Along the way, I experienced hardships, encountered countless Rogue Cultivators, and finally went through many adventures before my cultivation reached the ninth level of Qi Refining."

She briefly explained her origins.

"This!"

Zhou Sui widened his eyes. Although he had long known that Ji Bingyu had an extraordinary background, he didn't expect her to come from the prestigious Gold Core family, only to be forced to come to Misty Cloud City due to a decline in her family's fortunes.

Compared to himself, Ji Bingyu's background was truly illustrious.

Of course, her enemies were also quite terrifying. They belonged to a family of Gold Core cultivators, and their strength was probably not inferior to the dominant Immortal Mist Sect, which ruled over a vast area. They were a formidable force.

If the people from the Ouyang Family were to notice Ji Bingyu, it would likely lead to a relentless pursuit.

"Don't worry, my lord. In the past, I was just a nobody from the Ji Family. The Ouyang Family never paid any attention to me. Besides, it has been twenty years since the Ji Family was destroyed. It's highly likely that they have forgotten about me," Ji Bingyu said.

She was only thirty-five years old now, which meant that when she was fifteen, her family was annihilated.

"Do you want revenge?" Zhou Sui asked.

"Of course I do, but I also have self-awareness. Blindly seeking revenge would only lead to a dead end. Unless I can become a Gold Core cultivator, this hatred can only be hidden away, even if it means hiding it for a lifetime," Ji Bingyu said with a broad-minded attitude.

After twenty years of a life on the run, she still harbored hatred towards the Ouyang Family, but she was no longer as impulsive as she was when she was young.

Unless she had absolute certainty, she would not return to Jin Kingdom.

So now her goal was to improve her cultivation.

"Why not join the Immortal Mist Sect? With your talent, it should be a simple matter to join those sects," Zhou Sui knew that Ji Bingyu's talent was extraordinary. She had a fifth-grade spiritual root, which belonged to the middle-grade level.

Such talent would make Ji Bingyu a genius disciple even within the Immortal Mist Sect.

"If I join the Immortal Mist Sect, I don't lack inheritance. The Ji Family itself has the Gold Core inheritance. If I were to join the Immortal Mist Sect, it might expose my techniques or even my identity," Ji Bingyu explained.

"After all, for the Immortal Mist Sect, Jin Kingdom, which is thousands of miles away, is practically within reach. There must be people who know about the existence of my Ji Family. It's better not to take the risk."

"Although it's a bit difficult to become an Independent Cultivator, it's also very liberating."

Ji Bingyu explained.

"I see. Then what about your two sisters? How did you meet them?" Zhou Sui curiously asked.

"Well, that's another story. Although I really want to tell you, my lord, it's their privacy. If there's a chance in the future, maybe they will tell you themselves. But for now, I can only keep it a secret," Ji Bingyu smiled faintly.

She considered it to be the privacy of her two sisters and didn't feel comfortable telling others.

"Alright," Zhou Sui nodded. Although he felt a bit regretful, he also understood.

After all, everyone has their own secrets, and there's no need to dig into everything.

Perhaps when the child gu of the Infatuation Gu on his body is born again, he will be able to learn the secrets of the other two women.
