The bright sun shimmered on the grass, and the river’s colors glazed across the curtains.

The hustle and bustle of the market remained as lively as ever beneath the blue canopy of Jinzhou City’s sky.

Business was uneventful at Huai’s pawnshop today.

It was rare for the shopkeeper to be absent on this day. Instead, a young girl in a rosy dress took his place, dozing off with her head on the counter.

This sight attracted many glances and whispers from passing pedestrians.

In the past, a powerful-looking woman would take over the shop when the shopkeeper was away. But now, even she was gone, leaving a young girl in charge.

How strange indeed.

In the backyard of the pawnshop.

A stunning beauty wearing a blue palace gown sat under a tree with her phoenix eyes closed.

Her willow-like eyebrows, fair and snow white skin, and a translucent blue shawl floating in the breeze all added to her faintly ethereal aura.

She tied her long and flowing hair into a simple bun and adorned it with an elegant plum blossom hairpin.

Yu Qinghan was quietly cultivating in the courtyard.

Her cultivation speed was extremely fast.

In just half a year, she had advanced from the ninth stage of refining qi to the threshold of breakthrough.

This speed was undoubtedly rapid, outpacing a vast number of cultivators at the same level.

Since her childhood, Yu Qinghan had been extraordinary.

She never needed pills to aid her breakthroughs, nor did she rely on external items. She had never faced any bottlenecks.

Despite starting her cultivation practice late, if Yu Qinghan desired and had enough time, she could achieve consecutive breakthroughs without interruption.

However, later on, she devoted all her energy to establishing a unified Xia Country – including her time and every single thought.

Her cultivation progress naturally slowed down because she had exhausted her energy and wisdom.

Still, even under these circumstances, Yu Qinghan was approaching the Initiation Realm at the tender age of twenty.

Her husband’s immense strength put immense pressure on her.

If she didn’t catch up quickly, she would be the only one to pass away as they grew old together.

Determined to catch up with her husband, Yu Qinghan cultivated day and night during Zhao Huai’s absence.

With her existing foundation, breakthroughs in the Initiation Realm would not be too difficult as long as she put in the diligence.

Under the haze of Faint Blue True Qi, Yu Qinghan’s beauty was incomparable to anything in the world.

Following a resounding boom, her aura stirred as the surrounding spiritual qi seemed to be guided towards her.

The True Qi within her delicate body gradually contracted and rapidly transformed, hardening and solidifying into True Vigor of the Initiation Stage.

However, Yu Qinghan’s True Qi was incredibly powerful and domineering, with an astonishing capacity, unlike any Qi-Refining Realm cultivator.

Only with such an advantage could she face her initiation.

Now, as she was about to break through the Initiation Realm, her True Qi would be transformed into True Vigor, making her power rise by a significant level!

That is to say, once she broke through to the Initiation Realm, Yu Qinghan’s strength would not merely increase by several times but would soar exponentially, multiplying tens of times over.

The condensed True Vigor glimmered like a green gem, shining brilliantly.

Ordinarily, True Vigor would be in a gaseous form like fog; but her pure True Vigor took the shape of a crystal – its quality was nothing less than outstanding.

The destructive force this unleashed was unimaginable.

A glimmer flickered through Yu Qinghan’s phoenix eyes.

She had now reached the Initiation Realm.

She could distinctly feel that her lifespan had doubled.

Her previously lustrous black hair became even more spiritual, her facial features more refined, without a single flaw. Her temperament became more elusive, imbued with a touch of immortality.

There were no ugly cultivators.

There was indeed some truth to this saying.

Typically, during their Initiation, cultivators would have to undergo several cycles of marrow-cleansing and transformation. Any defects on their faces would be purged, and their physiques and facial features would gradually change to reach an optimal state.

For Yu Oinghan. this was like adding flowers to a beautiful fanestry-

Her strong physique meant she had little impurities, and she barely went through the process of marrow-cleansing and transformation, instead only perspiring a sweet fragrance.

One should know that ordinary cultivators had to go through one to three cycles of marrow-cleansing and transformation to break through successfully.

When Zhao Huai had initiated, he had undergone three days and nights of marrow-cleansing, his True Qi taking an incredibly long time to transform into True Vigor. He had to endure excruciating pain before he finally broke through.

However, Yu Qinghan was different. Her marrow-cleansing and transformation took only one hour, and her True Qi transformed into True Vigor within the time it took to burn one joss stick.

Spiritual qi from the universe spontaneously converged towards her, making her breakthrough progress incredibly fast.

In the backyard garden, the spiritual qi gathered by the spirit-gathering grass was entirely consumed by her.

After her Initiation, Yu Qinghan began to meditate again.

Solidifying her spiritual power.

“Whoosh!”

A significant wave of qi radiated from her center, rustling the plants and trees in the garden.

In the depths of her mind, a grand phantom of a phoenix-skirted robe appeared behind Yu Qinghan.

Majestic and imperious, the phantom’s phoenix eyes stared intently. However, in the blink of an eye, it vanished without a trace.

“This strange feeling… It’s come again.”

Yu Qinghan furrowed her eyebrows and murmured.

This unique sensation emerged when she joined the Limitless Immortal Sect and participated in the spiritual root detection.

Each time she made a breakthrough, this sense of connection became stronger.

Once, the Sect’s Elder had introduced her to the Sect Hierarch, the Limitless Taoist priest.

At that time, the Elder had an expression of utter amazement when faced with the Limitless Taoist priest; Yu Qinghan didn’t know what surprise had been discovered.

Back then, she was still young and hadn’t quite understood, and she couldn’t remember the specifics.

She only recalled the Limitless Taoist priest personally checking her bones, then smiling at her with his white beard and wrinkled face, saying:
