Five Years Later, Surrounded by Wives and Concubines
"Is this what you wanted to show me?"
Su Menghan took the book of techniques that Chen Anlin handed her.
"The Joyous Technique of the Ton Clan."
This was indeed a technique focused on joy. Su Menghan's face flushed instantly, filled with anticipation.
If Young Master Chen was giving her this, didn’t it mean he wanted to practice it together with her?
"Yes, take a look first."
As Su Menghan began to read, Chen Anlin turned his attention inward to the Fortune Vessel within him.
Through today’s efforts, he had accumulated nearly all of his fortune. With a thought, he transformed this fortune into primal energy.
Just as he was about to begin practicing the Joyous Technique, he felt as if he had entered the space of the Fortune Vessel, where prompts appeared before him.
【You have started practicing the Joyous Technique of the Ton Clan, thus you can:】
【1: This technique seems simple; you can practice directly and convert it into cultivation power. (Consumes fortune value.)】
【2: You feel this technique is not simple and has its intricacies; you decide to study it further. (Consumes fortune value.)】
【3: You choose to be indifferent; if you’re not convinced, just do it. You decide to practice while learning the technique. (Consumes fortune value.)】
It was clear that the choices were not made lightly.
Since he had fortune value at hand, Chen Anlin decided to choose!
【You feel this technique is not simple and has its intricacies. You begin an in-depth study; within just a year, you grasp some key points and realize the technique is more complex than it appears. Consumes fortune value. (Entry Level.)】
【Three years pass, and you discover that this technique allows both men and women to cultivate together, gaining immense benefits. Consumes fortune value. (Minor Achievement.)】
【Another three years pass; your strength surges forward, and you gain a deeper understanding of the Joyous Technique. Consumes fortune value. (Major Achievement.)】
【Five years have passed; surrounded by wives and concubines, you comprehend the true essence of the Joyous Technique: the exchange of souls! This time, both you and your wife gain immense benefits from your soul connection, resulting in a dramatic increase in cultivation power. Consumes fortune value. (Great Perfection.)】
Having spent a thousand fortune points, the technique finally reached Great Perfection.
This space felt like a simulated realm; it truly was remarkable.
He had spent over a decade in this space while only moments had passed outside.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Anlin opened his eyes and gently exhaled a breath of stale air.
So this was the true essence of the Joyous Technique!
This Joyous Skill was something he, as a villain, had obtained in the past. Initially, he intended to cultivate it in order to bully some virtuous women. However, he was killed by a horned creature, which found the Joyous Skill on him, serving as evidence of his wrongdoing.
Back then, while reading novels, he truly believed that this Joyous Skill must be some sort of sinister technique. But now, upon closer inspection, it was merely a facade. The Joyous Skill was actually a celestial technique that emphasized mutual achievement, sharing resources, and achieving a spiritual resonance and compatibility.
Ultimately, it led to a fusion of souls, creating a wondrous form of interaction. Not only did it provide immense benefits for cultivation, but it also significantly enhanced one's soul power in ways that were beyond comprehension. These details were vaguely recorded in books. However, the explanations were too esoteric, and since the technique was not actively cultivated, Su Menghan found it hard to believe.
Chen Anlin snatched the manual from Su Menghan's hands and asked, "What do you think?"
"Young Master Chen, do you know why I would rather abandon my long-time friend to help you?" To his surprise, Su Menghan gazed intently at Chen Anlin and countered with a question.
"Go ahead and tell me."
"I like you. Do you know when I started liking you? It was back then on the street when I was walking with my parents. I must have been seven or eight years old when some other kids bullied me. You appeared; you were a bit older than me—about nine years old. You saved me by fighting off those kids and even walked me home."
Memories from childhood began to surface slowly. Chen Anlin suddenly recalled a little girl with pigtails who had been sniffling back then.
"It’s you! You've become so much prettier! Back then, you were all dirty and still had a runny nose."
"Yes! I’ve always remembered you. But I didn’t know your identity until later when I encountered someone insulting me at the academy. It was you who stood up for me!"
In an instant, Chen Anlin understood; Su Menghan had fallen for him because of this past encounter.
"I thought it was because of my handsome looks," Chen Anlin admitted candidly.
"Pfft!" Su Menghan suddenly laughed but quickly turned serious again. "Now that we’re together, I must remind you: if you betray me or ignore me like before, I will kill you! I’ll carve you into pieces and feed your heads to the dogs!"
After saying this, Su Menghan hugged Chen Anlin tightly and bit down hard on his shoulder.
"Hiss!"
She really bit him! Soon enough, a tooth mark appeared on his shoulder.
"It seems that I need to teach you a lesson," Chen Anlin scoffed.
"The way you act is something I really like; however, the way you bite is something I absolutely dislike!"
It was essential to provide a lesson.
After a stick of incense had burned down, Chen Anlin looked at Su Menghan, who was drenched in sweat and had just woken up. He shook his head. Sometimes, being too powerful made it difficult to relate to others.
He then sat cross-legged, feeling a pure force circulating within him. This force was not his own but rather the refined energy produced from practicing the Joyous Technique together with Su Menghan. This energy boosted his vital energy without enhancing his foundation, further strengthening his internal organs and bones.
The sensation of this amplification astonished him; he could hardly believe such an effect was possible. The rapid growth of his vital energy also led to improvements in his martial arts skills. He had been practicing the Chen family's martial arts: the Fire Yang Fist. This was a fire-based fist technique that emphasized powerful and aggressive strikes.
Until now, he had only achieved minor success in his training. The levels of mastery were: Entry, Minor Success, Major Success, and Perfection. Just moments ago, he had successfully reached Perfection in the Fire Yang Fist. His realm began to elevate as well, jumping from the mid-level of the Eighth Rank to the mid-level of the Seventh Rank.
This enhancement not only improved his cultivation but also elevated his innate talent and foundation, allowing the flow of vital energy within him to become smoother. At that moment, another message appeared in the Fortune Vessel.
[First successful use of fortune; the exchange space of the Fortune Vessel is now open.]
Within the vessel, halos of light emerged, each sealing various treasures. Chen Anlin's consciousness entered the Fortune Vessel as if he were soaring through a vast universe, selecting treasures before him.
The number of treasures was staggering. Some offensive items were surprisingly priced at ten thousand fortune points. In addition to treasures, there were also pills and clothing—this was practically a department store.
The levels of treasures were categorized as: Heaven, Earth, Mysterious, and Yellow.
However, it is said that above the Heavenly Grade, there are even more treasures, such as the aura of immortals, which belong to the Spiritual Grade treasures. He glanced at the expensive treasures behind him. He really did find a Spiritual Grade treasure. It actually required over a million luck points. It would probably be difficult to gather that much luck by killing hundreds of Xiao Chens, right? Not to mention, he still needed his luck points for cultivation.
At that moment, a particular treasure caught his attention.
【Eye of Insight.】
This treasure was not expensive; it simply allowed one to see through others' disguises and detect the presence of people within a hundred meters. Chen Anlin thought to himself that such characters often wore masks, and having this item would make things much easier. Moreover, it could provide long-distance alerts.
With this in mind, he absorbed the light orb of the Eye of Insight and immediately purchased it. After withdrawing his consciousness from the Luck Immortal Bottle, Chen Anlin took out the Eye of Insight.
The Eye of Insight was only the size of a glass bead, containing a yellowed eye inside. When placed on his body, it could sense the presence of others within a hundred meters. Two maids were sweeping the floor, two guards were practicing martial arts, and beside them, Su Menghan was staring at him.
"You’re awake?"
Su Menghan looked surprised as she sat up. "Something's not right; I feel an unusual power within me."
Seeing the panic on Su Menghan's face, Chen Anlin gently patted her head. "You finally noticed?"
Could it be that this was due to the Joyous Technique?
"Otherwise, what do you think it came from?"
Su Menghan murmured, "There really is something."
Her eyes suddenly brightened as if she had discovered a new continent, her gaze fixed intensely on Chen Anlin.
Feeling her intense stare, Chen Anlin's heart skipped a beat. "What do you want to do?"
