Chapter 238: Chapter 180: I Can’t Hold Back Any Longer

"Come, I have some new Breathing Techniques to share with you. I was thinking that maybe practicing just one type isn’t enough. Only by cultivating multiple techniques and incorporating their strengths can one achieve a truly Flawless Spirit Body."

Immediately, the two sat on the bed, and Li Xiang taught Luo Feifei over a dozen carefully selected Breathing Techniques, one by one.

Luo Feifei’s comprehension was extremely high; she could grasp the basics of almost every single one with ease. It was monstrously impressive.

Li Xiang felt a pang of embarrassment. ’So it’s not just that she’s amazing at cultivating the Ice Crystal Peach Blossom Spell,’ he thought. ’She has astonishing talent for other Breathing Techniques as well. I’ve been too narrow-minded.’

"Since you can practice all of them, you should train in them all from now on. However, I’d still personally recommend you focus on the Ice Crystal Peach Blossom Spell as your main technique. Use the others for reference, drawing on their strengths to cover any weaknesses and innovate. Do your best to solidify your foundation, but don’t get greedy for quick results or advance recklessly. If you ever feel like something is wrong, just stop, and we can discuss it together."

There were so many Breathing Techniques; there was no need to stubbornly stick to just one. If one didn’t work out, they could just switch. In this life, Li Xiang was very ’wealthy’.

"Mhm, I know. The stones of other mountains can be used to polish my own jade."

Right then, Li Xiang began to explain all the new insights he’d gained over the past few days, holding nothing back. Every word he spoke was profound.

Luo Feifei listened, completely mesmerized. Suddenly, her eyes reddened and welled up with tears. She lunged forward and hugged Li Xiang tightly once again.

Li Xiang: "..."

This time, Li Xiang didn’t just stand there foolishly; instead, he gently patted her back.

Luo Feifei sobbed softly, her delicate body trembling. Her emotions were in turmoil, and she found it hard to keep them in check.

Because she had stepped into the Extraordinary Realm, more and more of her past-life memories were returning to her, all in the form of dreams.

She grieved for her past self and the tragic fate she had suffered, and at the same time, she was moved by how much Li Xiang had given her in this life.

The ’opportunity’ Li Xiang had given her was simply immense; she felt as if her whole being was about to melt.

She naturally knew how precious Breathing Techniques were.

Even in her past life, she had only obtained a single profound but incomplete Cultivation Technique, and in the end, she was ’harvested’ by someone.

If she had possessed so many Breathing Techniques to choose from in her past life, with her Cultivation Talent, her achievements would have been far greater.

Even though the Ice Crystal Peach Blossom Spell was flawed, with a backdoor left in it by someone, she might have been able to use other Cultivation Techniques to patch the vulnerability and achieve a Flawless Spirit Body.

However, the Apocalypse had only descended a few years ago. Cultivation Techniques, especially Breathing Techniques related to the Fundamental Dao, were incredibly precious—definitely not a dime a dozen for anyone to access.

There were plenty of common, Low Tier ones, the kind only suitable for beginners, but they held little value.

And yet, every single technique Li Xiang was giving her now was no weaker than her previous Ice Crystal Peach Blossom Spell. Some were even more profound.

Over a dozen of them...

’This... What else could I possibly say? Brother Xiang has completely overwhelmed me... no, he’s practically made me melt.’

"It’s all in the past. It won’t happen again," Li Xiang said comfortingly, knowing she must have been thinking about those nightmares again.

"Mhm." Luo Feifei composed herself, wiped her tears, and pulled her spirits together. "Let’s continue," she said.

She shared some of her own insights as well, and the two exchanged ideas. Before they knew it, day had broken.

"I also have some Fist Techniques, Swordsmanship, Palm Techniques, Body Techniques, and Spear Techniques to share, but we’re out of time. You can look through them yourself when you’re free." With a flip of his hand, Li Xiang retrieved some materials from his storage and handed them to Luo Feifei.

Luo Feifei didn’t take them.

Li Xiang thought she was unimpressed, so he took out several Spirit Fruits and said, "Make do with these for now. I’ll give you a regular supply in the future."

The main issue was that Luo Feifei didn’t have a storage space, so giving her too many Spirit Fruits at once would be inconvenient.

Luo Feifei couldn’t help but flash a dazzling smile and joked, "Are you trying to be my sugar daddy?"

Li Xiang stammered, "...What? No, of course not! Don’t get the wrong idea... That’s not what I meant."

Luo Feifei took his hand and whispered, "Stay here and keep me company for a few more days. It’s not like you have anything important to do when you go back."

Li Xiang pondered for a moment but was ultimately unable to resist Luo Feifei’s pleading gaze. "Alright. To be honest, I do have some more ideas that I need to discuss and verify with you."

Just as they were speaking, the doorbell rang.

"Feifei, are you awake?" Her mother’s voice called from outside the door. She was actually staying in the adjacent room.

Luo Feifei whispered to Li Xiang, "How about you hide in the closet?"

Li Xiang lightly flicked her smooth forehead. "Hide? Yeah, right. I’m leaving. I’ll come back for you tonight." His figure flickered, and in an instant, he was out on the balcony and up on the rooftop.

He moved with practiced ease, avoiding all the nearby security cameras.

Climbing walls wasn’t as convenient in broad daylight, but getting down via the fire escape from the top floor was no problem at all.

’Hide in the closet? If he were caught red-handed, it would be impossible to explain. The crucial part was that nothing had actually happened between him and Luo Feifei. They had spent the entire night talking, purely for the sake of their Cultivation and to advance together.’

’Luo Feifei had been a cultivation genius in her past life, making her a bit stronger than Jiang Cai’Er in that respect. But whenever Li Xiang thought about Jiang Cai’Er’s monstrously complex Matrix Map, he felt that if the two of them were to fight, it was uncertain who would actually come out on top.’

’Even though Luo Feifei’s Realm was one level higher, she might not be able to brute-force her way through the Matrix Map. And if it came down to problem-solving, Luo Feifei had spent years shooting films and commercials, neglecting her academic studies. She probably couldn’t even solve ten percent of it.’

Back in the hotel room, a charming smile graced Luo Feifei’s lips as she went to open the door. "Mom, why are you here so early?"

...

Li Xiang found a hotel nearby, got a room, and slept. When night fell, he secretly slipped back into Luo Feifei’s room.

He couldn’t just walk in openly, as it might create a scandal. In a big city like this, there were far too many paparazzi.
