Chapter 151: The Art of Sage

Days passed.
Ever since he went to the Qin Trading Company to buy the “Wood Escape Technique” that day, Chen An had been holed up in the tunnel and had not gone out.
In the past few days, other than having daily pleasures with his wives, he had spent the rest of his time learning the Wood Escape Technique.
It took him a total of eight days to barely master the technique.
[Wood Escape Technique: Entry 1%]
“I’ve finally mastered it.”
In the hall of the tunnel, Chen An smiled bitterly.
At this moment, his eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian, ran over with a bright smile and said excitedly, “Father, I’ve finished practicing drawing Qi into my body. Hurry up and play with me!”
Her second daughter, Chen Yi Ke, followed behind her sister without a word, like a silly follower.
“Alright. Coincidentally, Daddy learned a new technique today. 1’11 demonstrate it to you later.” Chen An looked at his two daughters kindly.
“Yay!”
Chen Yuejian jumped up in excitement.
Chen Yi Ke still had a silly expression.
In the next hour or so, Chen An used the Wood Escape Technique to hide among some wooden furniture at home, making his two daughters laugh non-stop.
[You used the Wood Escape Technique to make your two daughters happy. Wood Escape Technique proficiency +3+2.] X33
[You used the Wood Escape Technique to make your two daughters happy. Father-daughter Relationship+1+1.] x2
“The proficiency of the Wood Escape Technique brought about by the same behavior is far from the increase in the Father-Daughter Relationship.”
“Indeed, Relationships are difficult to nurture. It takes a lot of time and effort.”
Chen An thought to himself. Then, with a thought, he pulled up his eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian’s attribute panel.
[Name: Chen Yuejian)
[Cultivation: Draw Qi into the body – 23%]
[Attribute: Smart and intelligent, with outstanding comprehension]
[Relationship: 3 stars ? 92%]
“The progress of drawing Qi into her body is only 23%. This cultivation efficiency is a little low. I have to refine more Qi Nourishing Pills for her to eat later.”
“I’m still 8% away from leveling up my Father-Daughter Relationship.”
If I work harder, I can level up in less than three months.”
Chen An silently made up his mind.
Two days later.
His Wood Escape Technique had broken through to a skilled level.
Ten days later.
The Wood Escape Technique had broken through to the proficient level.
Two months later.
The Wood Escape Technique had broken through to the master level.
At the same time, his Father-Daughter Relationship with his eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian, increased to 4 stars.
[The Relationship between you and your daughter, Chen Yuejian, has increased to 4 stars. You are rewarded with 50 years of cultivation.]
[Name: Chen An]
[Cultivation: Golden Core Level 1]
This was the Golden Core Realm.
It was boring.
Chen An sensed his spiritual power. It was very thick and rich, but his heart was extremely calm.
Ever since he gave birth to his two daughters, it had been too easy for him to break through in his cultivation realm. He was no longer as excited as before when he broke through to the Qi Refinement realm.
In terms of image, he was a little like a man who had entered middle age after marriage in his previous life. No matter how beautiful his wife was, he did not have many thoughts lingering in his heart. He was not as excited as the first time he was back then.
“Your cultivation has broken through to the Golden Core Realm?”
Shen Qingyi had just finished cultivating in her room. After sensing the powerful spiritual pressure on Chen An’s body that far exceeded that of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, her heroic, beautiful face could not help but be filled with doubt and surprise.
Among them, there were more surprises.
With a thought, Chen An pulled Shen Qingyi into his arms from afar. He carried her and walked towards the room in front. At the same time, he smiled and said,
“That’s right. I’ve just broken through to the Golden Core realm. I have to let you experience the power of the Golden Core.”
“As long as you don’t go overboard…”
Shen Qingyi’s face was alluring, and she was both nervous and expectant.
After about an incense stick of time.
Chen An walked out of Shen Qingyi’s room, while Shen Qingyi stayed inside to rest because of her mobility.
Creak
Chen An pushed open Wen Zhiyun’s door.
At this moment, Wen Zhiyun was sitting cross-legged on the bed.
Chen An stopped in front of her.
“What?”
Seeing her husband walk in without a word, Wen Zhiyun couldn’t help but ask curiously.
Chen An said anxiously, “I have something good for you to eat. Open your mouth quickly.”
Wen Zhiyun was puzzled, but she still obediently opened her red and tempting lips.
More than a quarter of an hour later.
Wen Zhiyun’s scolding sounded in the room.
“Bastard, get out!”
“Don’t even think about coming into my room tonight!”
“Alright, then I’ll accompany you in the second half of midnight (o to 1 o’clock).”
After saying this, Chen An quickly rolled out of the room to avoid being chewed out by Wen Zhiyun later.
After that, he walked into Gu Xinyue and Song Huaying’s rooms one after another and told them that he had reached the Golden Core realm.
Then, he focused on letting them experience the hard strength of the Golden Core.
It was true strength!

In the blink of an eye, it was time for dinner.
However, there were only four people in the hall.
Chen An, Wen Zhiyun, and his two young daughters.
“You’re really a bastard. You don’t know how to dote on us at all!”
Wen Zhiyun glared at Chen An unhappily.
Then, he picked up three rice bowls filled with vegetables and turned to walk to the three rooms at the back to deliver food to the three sisters who were lying in bed because it was inconvenient to move.
Chen An knew that he was in the wrong and lowered his head to eat silently.
“Cough! Cough, cough, cough!”
The second daughter, Chen Yi Ke, accidentally choked because she ate too quickly. She immediately coughed in discomfort.
Seeing this, Chen An had a thought and sent the food stuck in her throat into her stomach. Then, he picked up a handkerchief from her mother and wiped her mouth. As he wiped, he said,
“Little Yi Ke, eat slowly. No one at home will snatch the food from you.”
“Mm.”
Chen Yi Ke responded honestly and slowed her breathing before continuing to wolf down the food.
Chen An was also impressed by his second daughter. She really only had eyes for food.
However, fortunately, his second daughter still knew how to respond with an “Mm” just now. It seemed that his second daughter’s comprehension was still not bad.
It was just that her learning ability was a little poor.
She could understand words, but she could not speak.
However, based on his second daughter’s comprehension ability, she would probably learn how to speak not at more than a year and a half of age.
Days passed just like that.
On this day.
The family of seven sat together for breakfast.
As soon as she put down the bowl, Chen Yuejian clamored for Chen An to play with her.
Seeing this, Wen Zhiyun couldn’t help but frown. “You haven’t even practiced drawing Qi into your body today, and you’re already thinking of playing. Chen Yuejian, I think you’ve been getting more and more impudent recently.”
Although she was not her biological daughter, Wen Zhiyun still did her best to discipline her. She could not bear to see children thinking about playing all day when they should be studying.
Because she had cultivated late back then, she had yet to build her foundation even though she was already 40 years old.
Now, her two daughters have had conditions made for cultivation since they were young. She could not bear to see her two daughters waste such a good cultivation environment.
“Mother Wen, I know I did wrong-”
Chen Yuejian lowered her head and admitted her mistake.
In this family, she was not afraid of her father or mother, but of Mother Wen.
This was because Mother Wen was very fierce in her eyes. She was not like the other three mothers who only knew how to act docile in front of her father and she dared to scold him.
“It’s useless to admit your mistake. You’re the classic example of ‘I was wrong, but I won’t change’. You’re too playful.”
Wen Zhiyun said in a domineering tone, “After Little Yi Ke eats her fill later, I’ll bring the two of you to learn the Tranquil Heart Technique. Before you master it, you’re not allowed to play with your father again.”
“Huh?”
Chen Yuejian felt terrible.
In this family, she loved to play with her father the most.
Her father always had endless stories and all kinds of novel games that made her smile every time.
And now, she was going to be captured by Mother Wen to learn some Tranquil Heart Technique. This was too tragic.
She wanted to play with her father every day and did not want to learn any Tranquil Heart Techniques.
Seeing his eldest daughter’s aggrieved expression, Chen An said to Wen Zhiyun, “Zhiyun, why don’t you teach me the Tranquil Heart Technique and 1’11 slowly teach the two of them?”
“You should spend more time cultivating and break through to the Foundation Establishment realm as soon as possible.”
Chen An had an ulterior motive. In fact, he could not bear not to spend a long time with his daughter. This way, the increase in the relationship between father and daughters and the increase in the proficiency of various techniques would be affected.
Wen Zhiyun thought about it and felt that it made sense, so she agreed to Chen An’s request.
When she first met him, Chen An was still at the mid-stage of Qi Refining back then.
But now, she was still stuck at the eighth level of Qi Refining, while Chen An had already become a high and mighty Golden Core realm Cultivator. The gap in cultivation was getting wider and wider.
This made her feel a sense of danger from the future.
She knew very well that Chen An would definitely take another concubine in the future.
Moreover, as his strength continued to increase, the cultivation of the concubines Chen An would take in in the future would overtake her.
If she was still a Qi Refinement Cultivator, she probably wouldn’t even have the right to speak at home in the future.
Just like that, out of their respective concerns, the matter of who would teach their two daughters the Tranquil Heart Technique fell on Chen An.
Chen An’s comprehension was extremely high.
In just one morning, he learned the Tranquil Heart Technique under Wen Zhiyun’s guidance.
Wen Zhiyun was very shocked. Her husband’s comprehension seemed to be getting better and better.
In the days that followed.
Chen An began to teach his two daughters the Tranquil Heart Technique.
His eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian, was very smart. She basically understood it upon teaching. He only coached her through the Tranquil Heart Technique once before she could practice alone.
Compared to her, his second daughter, Chen Yi Ke, was much more simple-minded. She still did not learn anything after demonstrating for the entire morning.
He taught her from morning to afternoon.
The result was the same.
She just couldn’t learn it at all.
Chen An gave up.
His second daughter was still young. It was normal that she could not learn. There was no need to encourage her.
Moreover, his second daughter looked very quiet. It didn’t matter if she learned the Tranquil Heart Technique or not.
With this thought in mind, Chen An decided to teach his second daughter boxing.
He had seen her second daughter’s strength before.
It was shockingly huge.
She was only half a year old now, but she could punch her three-year-old sister, Chen Yuejian, until she cried.
“Come, Little Yi Ke, follow Daddy’s rhythm.”
“Mm.”
Chen Yi Ke nodded innocently.
At the moment, she was only half a year old. Other than crying and giggling, she only knew how to grunt.
Such learning ability was considered poor among Cultivators.
However, compared to the children of mortals, it still blew them out of the water.
“Bang… Bang… Bang!”
Soon, Chen Yi Ke punched the cave wall in front of her under her father’s guidance.
With every punch, a fist pit two to three centimeters deep would be left on the cave wall.
She was so strong that Chen Yuejian, who was practicing the Tranquil Heart Technique at the side, looked like she was doubting her life.
Chen An was shocked. His second daughter’s physical fitness was almost comparable to a professional boxer!
Time passed quickly.
Seven days later.
Chen Yuejian had finally mastered the Tranquil Heart Technique.
At the same time.
A notification popped up in front of Chen An.
[Under your diligent guidance, your daughter, Chen Yuejian, has learned the Tranquil Heart Technique. You are rewarded with the ancient technique, the “Art of the Sage”.]
