In this world, whether it's wealth, power, or beauty, if your strength is strong enough, everything is within your grasp!

During his years of training at the White Crescent, Xu Fan's cultivation level had reached a bottleneck, and even the golden glint in his eyes could not materially aid him in further improving his cultivation level.

This time, when Xu Fan returned to Banan Village, he shared his plight with Old Immortal, whose response was that his talent was extraordinarily demonic; at his age, to have achieved such a cultivation level was already defying heaven.

If he still wanted to climb higher, there was only one thing that could help him.

Jiuyang Warm Jade.

Jiuyang Warm Jade was something one could only encounter and not seek, and even Old Immortal had merely heard of it.

But at this moment, through his Perspective Eye, Xu Fan could clearly see a clump of purple essence contained within the jade pendant in his hand.

This swirl of purple essence within the pendant gave Xu Fan a strong sensation! It could help him enhance his cultivation level!

Breath Condensing Sword! Swift as the wind over thousands of miles! Firearms obsolete! Old Immortal often talked to him about the wonders of the Innate Realm, and Xu Fan, who was only half a step into the Innate Realm, always felt depressed whenever he mentioned it.

However, as Old Immortal said, he had never seen anyone in his life achieve that realm, so Xu Fan had never taken it seriously.

But now, he had incidentally acquired the Jiuyang Warm Jade, a treasure that could advance him to the Innate Realm! How could he not be excited?

"It seems that good people really do get rewarded!"

Xu Fan chuckled inwardly, thinking that if he had been indifferent about Mu Qingyan's matter, perhaps he would have never crossed paths with this Jiuyang Warm Jade.

Although he was excited, Xu Fan wasn't going to start cultivating right there; he put away the Jiuyang Warm Jade and began to eat with the two women.

"Xu Fan, Mengyue, I apologize for the modest hospitality today. Next time Xiaoduo is better, I'll treat you both properly!"

Soon, they had finished the meal. Mu Qingyan needed to rush back to the hospital to take care of Mu Xiaoduo, so Xu Fan and Qin Mengyue left her place early.

"Hehe, Yueyue, with this great afternoon ahead of us, why don't we go on a date?"

Having descended the building, Xu Fan saw Qin Mengyue's dejected face and couldn't resist teasing her.

Qin Mengyue gave him a cold look without any mercy.

"Pff, babe, I'm not interested in dating a little guy."

"... "

Seeing Qin Mengyue's disdainful expression, Xu Fan shook his head and said, "Yueyue, you're just not being honest with yourself."

"After all, we've shared a bed before. How can you call me a little guy?"

"What, did you sneak a touch while I was still half asleep?"

"Get lost!"

As Xu Fan started to tease her shamelessly, Qin Mengyue instantly lost her temper and lunged at Xu Fan!

But Xu Fan was prepared, he dodged with a cheeky laugh.

"Hmph, I can't be bothered with you."

Qin Mengyue didn't pursue the matter any further; she just snorted and silently walked towards the exit of the complex.

For some reason, watching her walk away made Xu Fan feel a bit forlorn.

Logically speaking, her temporary reassignment to the traffic police team was just that—temporary. She'd be back with the criminal police soon enough, so it shouldn't be this depressing, right?

Shaking his head, Xu Fan couldn't figure it out and thought about probing her later in the evening using a burner number.

"Hey, do you want a ride home on the way?"

At that moment, Qin Mengyue flagged down a taxi and, with a stern face, turned to ask Xu Fan.

Xu Fan almost burst out laughing when he saw her.

That woman, as always, was hard-mouthed but soft-hearted.

"No need, we're not going the same way," Xu Fan replied. "Yueyue, you don't need to miss me this much. We'll have plenty of time to spend together tonight when no one else is around."

"..."

"Shameless, let's go!"

Perhaps the police still had matters to attend to, so Qin Mengyue didn't entangle much with Xu Fan, she glared at him, slammed the car door, and drove away.

Xu Fan saw this, helplessly shrugged his shoulders, and thought, We're living together after all, there's plenty of time to interact tonight.

He hailed a taxi and after returning home, Xu Fan locked himself in his room.

He took out the Jiuyang Warm Jade and prepared to cultivate.

Now sitting in a cross-legged position, he held the Jiuyang Warm Jade with both hands, protected his Dantian, eyes on the nose, nose on the mouth, mouth on the heart, until his mind was calm and peaceful, then he started to circulate the Hanging Pot Scripture.

According to the old immortal's mention, to absorb the power within the Jiuyang Warm Jade, one simply needed to sit quietly and practice.

Now as Inner Strength circulated through the cycle, he felt no different from his usual practice, and Xu Fan furrowed his brows.

This old immortal, he wouldn't be making this up, right?

Feeling astonished, pondering whether the old man's method was mistaken, suddenly, in his abdomen, there was an unprecedented warm flow bursting forth!

"What immense power!"

Xu Fan could distinctly feel a surging warm flow from the jade entering his body!

It was as if every cell in his body was being awakened! Driven by this force, the Inner Strength in his meridians surged like a fierce torrent, ceaselessly flowing through the meridians!

Faintly, there were even sounds of dragons chanting in his ears!

It took around two quarters of an hour for Xu Fan to slowly open his eyes!

The sharpness in his eyes was like two streaks of lightning flashing across—extremely sharp!

Even the golden light in his eyes became more intense!

"This Jiuyang Warm Jade truly is a treasure!"

Xu Fan looked at the piece of jade in his hand and couldn't help but smile radiantly.

The power contained within this Jiuyang Warm Jade was too domineering, even the gentle Inner Strength of the Hanging Pot Scripture was not enough to dissolve its fierceness.

It took about two full hours for Xu Fan to absorb less than one-third of the power within it.

Moreover, if he wanted to completely digest this warm surge in his body, it would take at least ten days to half a month.

But the progress was obvious!

At this moment, Xu Fan could clearly feel that his Inner Strength had increased by at least thirty percent, every movement was incredibly powerful!

"I wonder if this piece of Jiuyang Warm Jade could help me break through to the Innate Realm..."

Xu Fan muttered to himself, then with a breath, he released a white crescent from his mouth, like a sharp sword, thrusting outward!

The breath reached four feet before it dissipated!

The old immortal once said, an expert of the Innate Realm can kill within several dozen feet with just their breath!

In the past, when Xu Fan tried at half a step into the Innate Realm, his Breath Condensing Sword would only reach about two feet before dissipating.

Now, by absorbing the power of the Jiuyang Warm Jade, the distance of his Breath Condensing Sword had doubled!

This improvement was very satisfying for Xu Fan.

"Hmm?"

As he pondered cultivating a bit more to digest the warm flow in his body, suddenly, Xu Fan caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye that the screen of the mobile phone placed aside lit up.

It seemed someone had sent him a QQ message.

Xu Fan picked up the phone curiously, and upon seeing who it was, he couldn't help but laugh.

He didn't expect that without him reaching out to her first, she couldn't stand the solitude and came looking for him.
