Chapter 2316 — Chapter 2316 Improving the Soul Cultivation Technique

"Uh… even if you tell me to explain… my understanding of the technique is nowhere near enough to explain it in detail," he said in a somewhat awkward tone.

Sun Rouxi frowned at his response and immediately responded, "Then how do you know the technique could be improved? You got my hopes up for nothing!" "As I said, I don't have enough experience to explain myself. I'll do it once I reach a deeper understanding of the technique.'

"Fine, I'll wait. But if it turns out that you were lying to me, I'll be very upset and angry at you."

Tian Yang nodded.

"Alright."

The two of them chatted for a little longer before they parted and returned to their own dwelling.

Upon returning home, Tian Yang immediately entered seclusion to cultivate the soul cultivation technique.

Time continued to pass.

Five thousand years… ten thousand years… twenty thousand years.

"How is your progress with the soul cultivation technique?" Sun Rouxi asked Tian Yang on their sixth meeting since she revealed herself to be the creator of the Heaven's Indomitable Soul technique.

Tian Yang smiled and said, "Not much compared to last time, but I have reached a level of understanding where I can explain to you about why I think the technique can be improved."

"I'm listening."

Tian Yang proceeded to explain his discovery and shared his thoughts on how he believes it can be improved.

Sun Rouxi didn't respond for a long time after Tian Yang was finished.

Eventually, she looked at him with a cold smile and said, "If you dare call yourself talentless after today, I'll feed you to the pigs."

Tian Yang could only offer a silent smile in response.

"Hey, where are you staying right now?" Sun Rouxi suddenly asked. "Are you still staying in your personal world?"

"Hm? I am. Why are you asking?"

"Make some space for two people. I'm going to stay with you for a while," she said.

"What?!" Tian Yang exclaimed. "Why so suddenly?"

"What do you think? I want to improve the soul cultivation technique."

"Can't you just do it with the information I've provided you?"

"I can, but it won't turn out the way you envisioned, and there is still room for your comprehension to grow. It'd be a hassle to meet like this every time I want to speak to you, so I'll just stay with you until the cultivation technique is refined. Don't worry, I won't intrude on your time with your wife."

Tian Yang shook his head and said, "That's not what I am worried about. And room for two? Who else is coming with you?"

"Who else but Ruye?"

"Ah, Senior Sister Jing. You really stick close to each other, huh?"

"She's the only close friend I have. And it wouldn't be wise to leave her alone with my family for too long. They don't really like her because of her original background, and she's currently there as my 'servant'."

"In any case, I don't mind, but I need to speak with Ren Xia first. We share the world, after all."

"Alright. Let's meet again in ten years, then."

After they parted, Tian Yang returned home to let Ren Xia know the situation. Meanwhile, Sun Rouxi prepared for her departure from the family.

"I was wondering when this day would come since you started meeting with her again," Ren Xia sighed after hearing the situation.

Tian Yang raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why would you be expecting this situation?"

"You really don't know?" "..." Tian Yang remained silent.

"...In any case, you don't need my approval for such trivial matters. It's not like we're the only two occupying this world, anyway."

Ten years later, Tian Yang met up with Sun Rouxi, who brought along Jing Ruye this time.

"What did your wife say?" Sun Rouxi asked.

"Does it even matter? You look like you're already prepared to move in…" Sun Rouxi sighed, "Do you have any idea how much effort it takes to sneak out every time I meet you? Because of that time I ran away from home to work as a sect elder in the Immortal Monastery, my family has been keeping a close eye on me since then."

Tian Yang raised an eyebrow at her words and asked, "What about this time?"

"I snuck out, of course. There's no way they'd let me leave for an extended period of time alone. Hell, I'll definitely be grounded once I return home."

"Grounded…? It's not like you're a child…" Tian Yang shook his head.

"No… since you created such a powerful soul cultivation technique, they have a good reason for wanting to keep you safe."

"Enough talking. Let's go to your world before they realize I am gone. It was less bothersome before because they barely left the Holy Continent. However, they're everywhere these days."

Thus, Tian Yang brought Sun Rouxi and Jing Ruye to his personal world.

"Wow… so this is your personal world…"

Sun Rouxi and Jing Ruye were left in awe after seeing it for the first time.

"This place is so vast—much larger than even the ones at my family!" Sun Rouxi said.

"It was much smaller before, but we had to make some adjustments after a certain incident."

Although Tian Yang trusted Sun Rouxi, he kept the situation with Kulas a secret from her to avoid unnecessary risk.

"Isn't it expensive to maintain such a large world?" Jing Ruye asked.

"Yes, it requires half a million spirit stones a month to maintain it."

"That much?! Where are you even getting that much money from?" she asked.

"Monster cores are very profitable these days, especially Immortal-level cores. A single one can easily sell for tens of millions of spirit stones."

"Where do you even find the time to hunt for monster cores? Don't you spend more of your time in seclusion?" Sun Rouxi asked.

"Yes, that's why we're getting help from others. We're not the only ones living here."

"Hm? Who else lives here?"

"That's… I'll tell you in the future." Tian Yang said.

"Well, I don't really care, so you don't need to tell me if you don't want to," said Sun Rouxi in a calm voice. "Anyways, let's get started with the soul cultivation technique."

"Alright."
