We Agreed On Experiencing Life, So Why Did You Immortals Become Real?

Hearing Liu Shui’s words, Xiao Mo could not help frowning slightly. His voice carried both gravity and concern. “Sister Liu Shui, attempting to break through into the Nascent Soul Realm is no small matter... Have you truly decided?”

Xiao Mo did not advise her against it directly. He only hoped Sister Liu Shui could think it through properly.

Although Sister Liu Shui now had only a hundred years of lifespan left, if assisted by some superior rare cultivation treasures, perhaps she could still extend her life by another hundred years.

In two hundred years, what kind of opportunity she might encounter was impossible to say.

“I have decided.”

Liu Shui nodded seriously, her gaze firm, without the slightest wavering.

“What use is there in continuing to drag this out? Naturally, I know breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm is incomparably dangerous, but I want to try.”

She paused, her voice gentle yet stubborn.

“Actually, before I was injured, I had already planned to return to Seeking Immortality Temple after completing that raid mission and attempt to break through into the Nascent Soul Realm.”

“Although an accident happened, perhaps it was not a bad thing. At the very least, it made my resolve to break through into the Nascent Soul Realm even stronger.”

“Only, Young Master...”

Liu Shui turned around and looked deeply at Xiao Mo. In those faintly trembling eyes hid a careful, cautious hope.

“There is one thing I have always wanted to say to Young Master, but I never dared to say it aloud...”

“Sister Liu Shui, there is no harm in saying it,” Xiao Mo replied softly.

“If... I mean, if...” Liu Shui lightly bit her thin lip, her voice unconsciously lowering, as though she were afraid of startling something. “If this time, I can successfully emerge from seclusion... may I become Young Master’s concubine?”

“Sister Liu Shui...” Xiao Mo was just about to speak when Liu Shui gently stepped forward, raised a finger, and pressed it against his lips.

“Young Master does not need to tell me the answer now...”

Liu Shui’s eyes trembled slightly as she looked deeply into his. In that gaze were hope, unease, and a few traces of almost humble pleading.

“After I emerge from seclusion... Young Master can tell me the answer then, all right?”

Seeing how careful she looked, as though terrified of being refused, Xiao Mo’s heart sank slightly.

A short while later, Xiao Mo nodded and said in a low voice, “Sister Liu Shui... I understand...”

“Thank you, Young Master...”

Liu Shui smiled and dipped in a deep bow.

“I have no other important matters. I want to walk here a little longer and sort out my thoughts. Young Master should go back and rest well.”

“During this period of preparation before seclusion, if Sister Liu Shui needs anything, just tell me and Junmeng. We will certainly do everything we can to help,” Xiao Mo said sincerely.

“All right...” Liu Shui curved her eyes and nodded gently, her voice soft as a wisp of spring breeze.

“Then I will head back first.” Xiao Mo cupped his hands in farewell, turned, and walked back the way they had come.

Liu Shui stood where she was, staring blankly at Xiao Mo’s figure. Her gaze followed him as he walked farther away step by step, as though she wanted to engrave his back into her heart.

When Xiao Mo had completely disappeared into the moonlight, Liu Shui gathered the strands of hair drifting in the wind, curved her eyes in a faint smile, and spoke in a voice so soft it almost scattered with the breeze.

“Young Master... being able to meet you was truly wonderful...”

...

The next day.

Liu Shui began making all kinds of preparations to enter seclusion and attempt to break through into the Nascent Soul Realm.

As for so-called Nascent Soul formation, to put it in simpler terms, it meant making one’s soul fully condense into an independent Nascent Soul.

Even if the physical body were destroyed in the future, the Nascent Soul could still survive, whether by seizing another person’s body or by relying on rare cultivation treasures to reshape a physical body. Both were possible paths.

So before entering seclusion, Liu Shui had to expel the impurities from the spiritual power in her body and condense that spiritual power.

After all, a Nascent Soul could only be nurtured inside the body of a cultivator whose spiritual power was pure enough.

In addition, Liu Shui also needed to take some pills that could nourish the soul and strengthen the power of the soul, thereby increasing her chances of forming a Nascent Soul.
