Chapter 86: Cultivating in the Dimensional Osmanthus World to Master the Tortoise Sovereign's Kata and Acquire the Six Foundational Steps of the Black Tortoise. Meeting New Master, Li Meixiu.
It was now evening.
Shadows had covered all the courtyards in the residential sector.
Yang Wei and Wu Fengtian were perched on weathered boulders, greedily slurping down noodles from wooden bowls.
There was even the savory aroma of the steaming broth in the air.
Yang Wei, finishing the last bundle of noodles, stretched his arms in satisfaction.
Wu Fengtian, glancing at Yang Wei, asked with a mouthful, "Senior Brother, is anything the matter? Are you alright?"
Yang Wei ignored the question and swished his wide sleeves dramatically and clasped his hands behind his back as he strolled back into his house.
His departing words for Yang Wei was straightforward.
"Feng, stand guard for me. I'm off to cultivate in the Dimensional Osmanthus World. I might be gone for a week, but that's probably just a day in this realm, if my calculations are correct, that is."
With noodles puffing up his cheeks, Wu Fengtian nodded vigorously and managed to muffle out a mumbled, "Yes, sir."
...
In Yang Wei's study room, he retrieved the Dimensional Osmanthus Seed from his storage pouch.
"Alright then..."
He placed it forward.
A burst of golden light shot forth, opening a swirling golden portal.
Without hesitation, Yang Wei stepped through, and the portal sealed behind him.
...
Now, he was in the Dimensional Osmanthus World.
It is a pocket dimension teeming with natural beauty and rich in spiritual energy.
He gently and slowly moved his arms outward on a circular path upwards before bringing them in, pressing his palms against each other.
Right after, the Protective Emanating Wave Stance.
He shot his hands forward, unleashing a small burst of energy, and finished it off with the double-handed mudra, that was the last step—Sage Unity Seal.
Yang Wei scrutinized his own body, muttering, "Hm? Did it not work? Instead of feeling stronger, I swear I've lost a huge amount of spiritual energy." Just then, a leaf in the lush forest straightened and lunged at him, breaking free from its tree.
With lightning reflexes, Yang Wei dodged it by rotating swiftly to the side.
About fifteen other leaves, sharper than blades, zoomed toward him. Skillfully, he danced between them, leaped high into the air, and executed a flawless backward rotation before landing on a boulder with only one foot. Observing the sentient leaves, he wondered aloud, "What are these things? Is this place testing me or something?"
The leaves attacked again, this time like bullets with increased murderous intent. Yang Wei performed a front flip, effortlessly evading them. The sharp leaves crashed into the boulder, reducing it to pieces. Yang Wei landed and exclaimed, "Wow, what kind of physical amplification did those leaves get?"
Suddenly, a woman's voice sounded, "I'm that physical amplification!!" Her voice was sharp and ruthless.
Yang Wei turned to identify her but found her unfamiliar. Puzzled, he asked, "Eh, who are you?"
She had a stern expression, with short hair neatly tied in a bun and attractive green eyes. Her skin tone fell between fair and dark, giving her a unique She had a slim, toned, and muscular yet distinctly feminine physique. Her clothing was provocatively revealing, with a top barely concealing her perky, strong breasts, showcasing even the shape of her nipples.
A short skirt-like attire revealed a bit of her crotch, emphasizing her alluring figure and sexy, bulging V-cut abs that made her slender waist even more of an attractive sight.
The woman, with a violent expression told him, "I'm Li Meixiu, and I've..."
Eager to interject, Yang Wei couldn't resist a cheeky remark, "With a muscular body like that, you should learn to smile more or you'll scare away a lot of suitors..."
The woman, veins throbbing on her forehead, gritted her teeth angrily, squeezing her fists tightly in response. "You arrogant... bastard!"
"Eh?"
"Don't you know who I am?!" she asked him furiously.
Yang Wei stretched his arms as he told her, "No, of course not."
"IDIOT! I was sent here by Elder Tortoise's followers to help you train!" She glared at him.
"Eh?"
