Chapter 1763 - 1760: The Moment Is Ripe

Chapter 1763: Chapter 1760: The Moment Is Ripe

Although there was already a feeling of Nascent Soul Formation, rekindling his confidence, this feeling had yet to reach its peak and continued to grow.

Yang Fei felt he was at the stage of accumulating momentum for Nascent Soul Formation. Once the momentum was fully gathered, it would naturally succeed, which made his heart increasingly calm, without any anxiety.

Half a month later, Helian Rong stabilized her Early-stage Core Formation Realm and successfully exited seclusion.

Just emerging from the chamber and seeing Yang Fei, whom she had missed for years, Helian Rong instantly felt immensely joyful and threw herself into his arms.

Monarch Luo Yu took Yang Cheng out while Helian Rong was coming out of seclusion.

The other people in the Medicine Garden were busy with their own tasks, and no one disturbed them.

Clearly, everyone knew that Yang Fei and Helian Rong, as lovers separated for years, need not be disturbed by outsiders upon their reunion.

"How have they been doing?" After holding each other for a long time, they went into Helian Rong’s private house. After an intimate moment, Helian Rong asked casually.

Yang Fei recounted the events that happened after they separated, and during the conversation, Helian Rong shared some tales about cultivating with her children, father, and two mentors at the Shang Qing Sect after Yang Fei left.

Although they were separated for many years, the years in the Cultivation World flew by quickly, and both were cultivators pursuing higher realms. Helian Rong often went into long periods of intense cultivation, sometimes lasting months or even years. Thus, although they missed each other, their longing was not too intense. They were more worried about each other’s safety due to internal chaos at the Shang Qing Sect and major changes in the situation in the Southern Domain.

"One year in the Southern Domain is equivalent to three years on Earth. For those who engage in seclusion, it is better to go to Earth to cultivate instead,"

Helian Rong suddenly said, "Yang Fei, now that I have successfully reached Core Formation, to achieve the conditions for Nascent Soul Formation, I will need massive amounts of strenuous cultivation time. Returning to Earth to cultivate is actually better for rapid growth. For instance, if I need a hundred years to reach Middle Stage Core Formation here, but if I cultivate on Earth for a hundred years, only thirty-three years would have passed here. According to the Southern Domain’s time calculation, a hundred years is enough for me to cultivate on Earth for three hundred years, even achieving Nascent Soul Formation."

Yang Fei looked at her in surprise, asking, "You want to return to Earth to cultivate?"

Helian Rong nodded, "According to what you said, the concentration of Spiritual Energy on Earth is not much worse than at the Shang Qing Sect now, and the time discrepancy with the Southern Domain Cultivation World is threefold. Staying on Earth to cultivate is more advantageous. Moreover, there is a matter I have not yet understood. If I can figure it out, it could significantly extend the lifespan of many Earth people."

"What haven’t you understood?" Yang Fei asked curiously.

Helian Rong said, "It’s related to the time discrepancy. I’ve been considering, if an Earth person’s lifespan is a hundred years, and he comes to live in the Southern Domain, living here for thirty-three years would be equivalent to living his entire life on Earth. If he stays in the Southern Domain, will he die at thirty-three years, or could he live for sixty more years?"

Yang Fei was taken aback.

He hadn’t actually thought about this issue.

After pondering for a long time, he asked, "How many years have you been in the Southern Domain?"

Helian Rong said, "Almost eleven years."

Yang Fei’s heart stirred, "So, thirty-three years have passed on Earth?"

Helian Rong nodded, "That should be the case."

"In other words, if you continue staying on Earth, you would age by thirty-three years," Yang Fei said.

Helian Rong said, "Yes, but during my eleven years in the Southern Domain, I feel my age has only increased by eleven years. Due to cultivation, I can’t sense changes in my bodily functions. To clarify this matter, we need to bring an ordinary Earth person who is not knowledgeable in cultivation to live in the Southern Domain to get the answer."

Yang Fei thought this made sense.

Suddenly, he remembered Aunt Li Guiju.

According to regular lifespan, Aunt should have roughly ten years left. But if I bring Aunt to live in the Southern Domain, how many years could she live here?

Could it be that Aunt’s ten years of lifespan on Earth would be exchanged for much longer survival time in the Southern Domain?

"What are you thinking?" Helian Rong saw Yang Fei in deep thought, prompting him.

Yang Fei spoke about his idea.

Helian Rong pondered for a moment and said, "Yang Fei, you can try bringing Aunt over. Since you have fed her the Longevity Pill, you know that her actual lifespan could reach a hundred years, allowing you to precisely know she can live for ten more years. If she comes to the Southern Domain and can only live for three years, then my previous assumption is invalidated, but if she can live in the Southern Domain for ten years, then according to Earth time calculation, she would actually have lived past a hundred years."

Yang Fei thought about it and decided to give it a try.

After all, Yang Hao, Yang Dong, Yang Wen, and Yang Qingchan all came to the Southern Domain World, so bringing Aunt over would allow her to frequently see her grandchildren and other relatives.

Moreover, I should bring Huang Qiaoqiao along.

He found Yang Hao and jointly deliberated this matter with him. Yang Hao also expressed approval.

Thus, Yang Fei used the Extreme Fire Demon Pearl to return to Earth.

Aunt Li Guiju and Huang Qiaoqiao felt longing to reside in the Southern Domain upon hearing Yang Fei’s intention to take them there, as who wouldn’t want to be with their family. But they verbally refused, saying they didn’t wish to hinder Yang Hao, Yang Dong, and Yang Qingchan’s cultivation.

Yang Fei then explained Helian Rong’s idea, and upon learning that it could help Yang Fei ascertain the time-flow issue between the two worlds, as a trial, they agreed to the proposal.

So, Yang Fei brought them to the Shang Qing Sect, settling them at the Piaomiao Inn.

Yang Hao and Yang Dong came over immediately, but Aunt and Huang Qiaoqiao insistently refused to meet them, saying that although they had now moved to the Shang Qing Sect, they would not disturb the two’s cultivation. They encouraged them to forget mundane worldly ties, focus on cultivating, and when accomplishments are achieved in the future, it would not be too late for a reunion.

As for Yang Fei, his days ahead instead seemed unusually leisurely.

As Helian Rong insisted on returning to Earth for cultivation, he sent her back, along with Yang Cheng.

Yang Fei himself did not stay on Earth; he needed to attempt Nascent Soul Formation in the Southern Domain.

Condensing Nascent Soul is far more challenging than Foundation Establishment or Core Formation, whether in terms of time or the mental strain involved. Yang Fei didn’t dare to risk being disturbed while on Earth.

In comparison, attempting Nascent Soul Formation at Tian Nan Peak in the Southern Domain, with Wan Daorong serving as protector, was much more peaceful and worry-free for him.

Time passed quickly; after returning to the Southern Domain this time, half a year went by in the blink of an eye.

Yang Fei spent little time daily on cultivation and mostly wandered around the sect’s surroundings, appearing most idle. Yet, he was gradually accumulating the momentum for Nascent Soul Formation intensely.

This feeling grew stronger and stronger.

Until one midnight, after circulating a cycle while meditating in his room, he suddenly realized something and immediately sought out Wan Daorong: "Master, I think I want to try."

Wan Daorong carefully observed him for a few moments and nodded, "Indeed, it’s time."
