One Hundred And Fortieth Chapters Of The Female Cultivators
After Chu Shen obtained the general outline of the Qi Refining technique, he deduced a large number of Qi Refining stage cultivation methods. He gave them as gifts to many people in Nanping City, not to mention the concubines in his family.
Nowadays, all the concubines in the Chu family are practitioners who have entered the door of cultivation.
However, after entering the Langxuan Heavenly Palace, Chu Shen has been busy with cultivation and making connections. He has relaxed his supervision of the concubines' cultivation, and he doesn't know if these women have been slacking off.
This is not just a matter of cultivation, but also relates to how long they can accompany him.
In general, the lifespan of a Qi Refining stage cultivator can reach the limit of an ordinary person, which is about 120 years.
The limit lifespan of a Foundation Building stage cultivator can reach 200 years.
The lifespan of a Spirit Gathering stage cultivator is around 300 years.
A Gold Core stage cultivator, after condensing their Gold Core and successfully crossing the Heavenly Tribulation, will have a lifespan of at least 500 years. If the cultivation technique they practice is suitable for health preservation, they can even hope for 800 to 900 years, or even a thousand years.
But this is still far from immortality. Even when reaching the Nascent Soul stage, the lifespan of cultivators is generally only around a thousand years. Going against the laws of life and death, they will start periodically transcending tribulations based on individual circumstances. One careless mistake can lead to being completely annihilated.
The Spiritual Ascension stage is quite special. It seems to have a means of deceiving the laws of life and death, greatly increasing the cultivator's lifespan. It is not uncommon for them to live for two thousand years.
However, due to the backlash caused by deceiving the laws, from this stage onwards, transcending tribulations becomes extremely dangerous. It is impossible for cultivators to peacefully pass through two thousand years. Even if they manage to live for two thousand years, if they cannot advance to the Unity stage, they will mostly end up being completely annihilated. Even if they survive, they will have to hide like the old hermits, avoiding the induction of the Heavenly Dao.
During the Fusion Stage, cultivators step into the realm of the laws and gain insights into the laws of life and death, greatly increasing their lifespan. Five thousand years is a basic lifespan for this stage.
However, cultivators are ultimately not part of the natural order of heaven and earth. They are anomalies and will still suffer backlash from the heavenly dao. Only by comprehending the principles of heaven and earth and entering the Empty Void Realm can they continue to extend their lifespan to eight thousand years.
Cultivators in the Mahayana Stage have already reached the point of fully mastering the principles of heaven and earth. In theory, they have reached the stage of having the same lifespan as heaven and earth. However, in reality, they have gradually become incompatible with this world and must inevitably break through the void and ascend to the higher realm. The maximum lifespan that can be preserved in this realm is around ten thousand years; otherwise, they will be condemned by heaven.
In other words, the maximum lifespan of a cultivator in the Profound Heaven Stage is ten thousand years. After this period, they will either die or ascend to become immortals in another world called the "Immortal Realm," which complements the Profound Heaven Realm.
Chu Shen is a person who values emotions greatly, at least for now. He has not been worn down by the long cultivation process and ultimately hopes that Ji Ya and the others can accompany him directly.
The concubines also know that Chu Shen cares about them, and they all report their cultivation progress to him.
Chen Ying was the first to raise her hand and proudly said, "Husband, I have already reached the eighth level of Qi Refining, isn't that fast?"
Chu Shen gestured for her to come over and checked her pulse, investigating her cultivation progress. He immediately rolled his eyes and said, "Your progress is mainly due to the awakening of your cat demon bloodline, and it has little to do with your own cultivation. You've been slacking off during this period. Otherwise, according to my estimation, you should have reached the ninth level of Qi Refining by now!"
Chen Ying argued cunningly, "No, I've been working hard. It's just that I need to take care of Ying Yu and Xiu Yu, which has delayed some time. Besides, I'm pregnant with our second child, so I have to be careful. Cultivating Qi too frequently would harm the baby!"
Chu Shen gave her a pat on the butt and said, "Don't argue, cultivation doesn't affect the fetus at all. In fact, if you practice well, it can even help the fetus improve blood circulation and strengthen its muscles. It can even enhance the innate aptitude of the fetus!"
"Ah, is that so?" Chen Ying was stunned, her tail standing up.
The other women looked at Chu Shen curiously.
Of course, Chu Shen wouldn't tell them that it was the system's doing, but his women did have this advantage. "Of course it's true. However, there is a condition. It must be the cultivation method that I obtained through opportunities, which is most suitable for all of you. Other cultivation methods are the wisdom of the predecessors and may not necessarily have the same effect."
The women had long been accustomed to the frequent opportunities that appeared on Chu Shen, so they believed it quite a bit. Chen Ying even cursed and vowed to practice diligently in the future, not only for herself but also for the child in her belly.
Chen Ying was full of fighting spirit, but Chen Xiu felt a bit depressed. She said, "Husband, my current cultivation is only at the sixth level of Qi Refining, far inferior to Ying'er. But I have really worked hard..."
Chu Shen felt sorry for her and said, "Why are you comparing yourself to Chen Ying? She was lucky and unexpectedly awakened her cat demon bloodline, which gave her the help of her bloodline and allowed her to achieve her current cultivation. You, on the other hand, have cultivated step by step on your own and also take care of the household affairs. You are already doing very well..."
In fact, Chu Shen was quite surprised by Chen Xiu's progress in cultivation. After all, her initial aptitude was not good, and it was only through the rewards of the "More Children, More Blessings" package that her aptitude improved significantly after giving birth. Now that she has reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, it shows that she has done her best in cultivation.
Compared to Chen Xiu, Ning Xiangyue had better aptitude to begin with, and she also received good rewards after giving birth. She didn't have as many household chores as Chen Xiu, and her cultivation was only at the seventh level of Qi Refining. It can be seen how diligent Chen Xiu is.
Compared to the three women who entered the Jinxing family earlier, Zhao Chulu and Hu Chuanshan, who entered the family later, felt ashamed. Although they also received rewards when giving birth and had the support of their natal family resources, their cultivation was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining. It was because they were too lazy and indulgent in their daily lives.
On the contrary, their qualifications are average, and they don't have the extra resources like the four maidservants, Lian Chun, Lian Qiu, Qing Ping, and Wei Lan. Surprisingly, their cultivation level is not inferior to their own young miss, indicating that their cultivation is quite diligent, much more serious than their young miss.
What surprised the other women the most is Tong Zhou and Tong Ye, the two sisters. Their cultivation level has actually reached the seventh level of Qi Refining!
On one hand, their qualifications belong to the better category among the women.
On the other hand, their early years as dancers were filled with blood and tears, and they deeply understand how important it is to seize opportunities and change their fate. They have the opportunity to cultivate [their diligence even surpasses Chen Xiu's.
It's not surprising that they have achieved this.
As for Shangguan Shu Rong, her progress in cultivation is not ideal. She is currently at the ninth level of Qi Refining, still far from Foundation Building.
However, her main problem is emotional deficiency. She cannot conceive in this situation and has not received the blessings of the system's big gift package. Although she is wholeheartedly cultivating, compared to other concubines, she is competing on the same level as players who cheat, so she is not to blame.
As for Fang Wenjuan, Li Lingyu, and other women, they entered the door a bit late and are currently giving birth one after another. They are mostly at the first, second, and third levels of Qi Refining. It is not appropriate to blame them.
What truly surprised Chu Shen is Wei Liangnu. When she entered the door, she was only at the sixth level of Qi Refining, but now she has reached the ninth level of Qi Refining. In terms of growth speed, she is actually the fastest.
On one hand, her talent is truly good, and on the other hand... When he opened her system panel, he couldn't help but exclaim, "What the hell, it's been activated."
