Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue's golden hair swayed in the air, and she looked at the flames burning beneath the golden coffin, somewhat stunned. "Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue, you really lit a fire beneath the golden coffin... I was just teasing little friend Shuhang earlier!"

Although her cultivation realm had been restricted, she was still a Sixth Stage True Monarch. Even if her eyes couldn't see through objects, she needed but a glance to discern that there was no life aura coming from Lady Onion's bulging lower abdomen!

The jade white lion Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue stiffened. After a short moment, it turned its head around and forced a smile, saying, "Is that so, Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue? Anyway, I was also just joking, wasn't that obvious?"

Only an idiot would believe it! No matter how one looked at your serious expression while you were lighting the fire, it didn't seem that you were joking!

Right at this time, a 'ding, ding' sound was transmitted from Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue's pocket.

She grabbed her phone and unlocked it, discovering that someone had logged in inside her chat account from another phone.

"Eh? Who is using Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue's account?" Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue wondered... she usually used Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue's account to read the recent news and gossip posted in the Nine Provinces Number One Group.

From the looks of it, Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue's main body got online?

Did he finally have the free time to go online?

Thereupon, Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue fiddled with the phone in her hands for a while and logged in with a different account. The name of the account was 'Phoenix Saber Jasmine', and it was a well-hidden account in the Nine Provinces Number One Group that had almost never made its appearance.

Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue rarely used this account since she hadn't added any friends. Therefore, it wasn't as entertaining as Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue's account.

Just as Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue logged in to the 'Phoenix Saber Jasmine' account and got into the Nine Provinces Number One Group, she discovered that someone had posted a picture in the group.

The one that sent the picture was Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue.

The picture depicted a dark chamber tomb with a dazzling golden coffin in the center.

The scene was rather familiar, wasn't it?

A young man with a dumbfounded look on his face was lying inside the coffin, and above him was a cute girl with two lovable green ponytails. The duo was captured during a rather ambiguous scene.

Actually, the real focus of the picture was the lower abdomen of the cute girl with two ponytails...

No matter how one looked at it, that faintly bulging lower abdomen was rather eye-catching!

"What's happening? Who sent the picture in the group?" Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue called out.

She surely didn't send it since she was forced out of the account and had to log in with a different one!

"I didn't do anything. I don't even have a phone with me." The jade white lion Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue waved its paws in the air as a sign of its innocence.

"Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue wouldn't do something so stupid, either. He is a very serious person," Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue added.

Such being the case, who was the culprit?

It shouldn't be Fifth Cultivator of True Virtue, either... After he successfully transcended the tribulation and lost the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, the connection between him and the Fourth, Sixth Cultivator, and Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue had become very feeble.

Therefore, whose doing was it...?

❄️❄️❄️

For Song Shuhang, who was still inside the golden coffin, it didn't really matter who sent the picture!

As soon as Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue's account sent the picture in the Nine Provinces Number One Group, a lot of seniors that were lurking around immediately showed their faces.

Northern River's Loose Cultivator: "Holy 💩!"

Treasure Forging Heavenly Mansion's Yang Xian: "Wait a moment, isn't that young man our little friend Shuhang?"

Island Master Tian Tiankong: "You're not mistaken! That's indeed Fellow Daoist Seven Dao Names!"

Vice-Island Master Tian Tianwei: "Who is that little girl lying on him?"

None of the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group had seen Lady Onion's human form.

But there was one of them that was able to guess the identity of the girl correctly after seeing her green ponytails.

This senior was Young Master Phoenix Slayer. While he was madly beating up the stallion spirit back then, he obtained an important piece of information from him. Apparently, there was a female monster called Lady Onion that was currently staying together with Song Shuhang, and she must have been a very pretty monster if the stallion spirit traveled for thousands of miles just to get his hands on her.

Thereupon, Young Master Phoenix Slayer quickly wrote: "Is it possible that she is the onion spirit that little friend Shuhang has been raising?"

"Is she his monster pet? I didn't expect little friend Shuhang to be that kind of person. He even impregnated his monster pet." Fairy Lychee wrote. "But why did the onion spirit get pregnant so quickly?"

"It should be because it's an onion spirit. Its growth cycle should be very fast. Anyway, little friend Shuhang performed brilliantly. The child born from the relationship between a human and a monster onion is bound to be rather interesting, don't you think? Will it be a human with green onion shoots as hair?" The ID 'Hospitalized Copper Trigram' wrote at this time.

"Or perhaps it will a green onion with hands and feet?" the ID 'Hospitalized Iron Trigram' added.

At this time, Thrice Reckless Mad Saber said excitedly, "Fellow Daoists, should we start discussing which name we should give to little friend Shuhang's child after its born?"

The Nine Provinces Number One Group immediately became very lively.

The one that had started all of this, Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue's account, had quietly disappeared without leaving any traces.

❄️❄️❄️

The corner of Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue's eyes twitched. It seemed she was having a lot of fun.

Inside the golden coffin, little friend Shuhang didn't react, didn't make a sound, and didn't punch the coffin, either.

Even while the fellow daoists in the Nine Provinces Number One Group were happily discussing the name of this future children, Song Shuhang didn't react.

Had he undergone a mental breakdown?

Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue cautiously pushed to one side the lid of the golden coffin... The coffin had become somewhat hot now that fire was burning beneath. However, such a temperature wasn't really a problem for Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue.

After the golden coffin was uncovered a bit, she saw that Song Shuhang was madly pressing on the phone.

"It's over, it's over... my life is over..." Song Shuhang muttered to himself. The screen of his phone was black—it was out of power.

At such a critical moment, the phone had switched off because it ran out of battery.

Such being the case, it should be time for the 'battery charging technique' to enter into action... but no matter how simple it was, it was still a magical technique.

Since it was a magical technique, he needed his mental energy to control the technique while using it.

The Sea of Qi Dantian inside his body wasn't the only thing on the verge of exploding. His mental energy had also increased until it was a little too much to handle, and the place between his eyebrows was hurting for this reason.

Given the condition he was in, he was unable to charge his phone.

This was the real reason Song Shuhang wasn't replying even though the seniors in the group were happily talking about his future children.

Right before his phone switched off, he saw the picture 'Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue' sent in the Nine Provinces Number One Group, as well as the excited comments sent by the seniors after seeing the picture...

Thereupon, Song Shuhang quickly activated the voice message feature of the instant messaging app, preparing to send a voice message in the chat to explain to the seniors what was going and clear up the misunderstanding.

But just as he activated the voice message feature and prepared to speak, the phone emitted a 'ding' sound and switched off while playing a pleasant background music.

Song Shuhang roared inwardly.

He could well imagine how wild the imagination of the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group would run during the period he was offline and couldn't reply!

Perhaps it wouldn't be long before he was labeled with the following nicknames: Song 'green onion f*cker' Shuhang, Song 'doesn't let off even monster pets' Shuhang, Song 'father of a half-monster' Shuhang, and so on.

"It's over, it's over..." Song Shuhang repeated over and over again.

In the tail section of the golden coffin, Lady Onion was absent-mindedly curling up into a ball. She was using her small hand to feel her abdomen, not daring to believe what was happening. Her world had lost its colors, becoming completely gray. It was unknown what she was thinking at this time.

❄️❄️❄️

Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue thought of covering the golden coffin again, but right at this time, Song Shuhang raised his head and looked her in the eyes.

It was a very aggrieved look!

"I didn't send the picture," Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue immediately said.

"..." Song Shuhang.

Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue immediately shifted the topic of conversation. "Anyway, little friend Shuhang, how about I use the battery charging technique for you? It's free of charge."

After saying this much, she stretched out her finger and gently poked Song Shuhang's phone.

"Crack~"

An electric spark flashed, and the phone automatically turned on since Song Shuhang had been holding the power button all along.

Song Shuhang's attention was successfully diverted towards the phone.

Now that the phone was working, he could explain to the seniors of the group the truth and clear up the misunderstanding!

Song Shuhang looked at Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue and asked, "Right, Senior Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue. Is it just my misconception or... it's getting rather hot?"

Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue bent her head over and looked at the blazing flames burning beneath the golden coffin.

Immediately after, the golden-haired Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue turned around and ruthlessly kicked away Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue...

"Aaaaah!" Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue called out pitifully. The kick sent it flying and mounted it on the nearby wall.

"You don't need to worry. It was just the masterpiece of that idiotic Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue. I'll immediately restore the temperature to what it was before," Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue said and secretly stretched out her hand, putting out the 'holy fire' that Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue had lit beneath the golden coffin.

"Ding, ding, ding~" The startup sound of the phone echoed.

Song Shuhang's mobile phone had restarted.

Song Shuhang swiftly moved his fingers and opened the Nine Provinces Number One Group. At this time, his actions were so quick that he had reached supersonic speed.

Right at this time... the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group were discussing how they should name Song Shuhang's grandsons.

F*ck, I have been offline for just a few minutes, and the conversation has already reached this point?

Then, just as Song Shuhang scrolled through the chat logs, he discovered that Fairy Lychee had sent some pictures in the group by using the 'drawing board feature'. The pictures portrayed a long-haired person with a green onion head and a green onion with feet and hands... It was how she imagined Song Shuhang's son or daughter.

No, I cannot allow the imagination of the seniors to keep running wild any further! I must clear the misunderstanding!

Song Shuhang clicked on the chatting window and looked for the voice message feature.

But right at this time, Medicine Master suddenly sent him a private message. "Ahahaha~ Little friend Shuhang, I didn't know that there was this kind of relationship between you and that onion spirit! Anyway, let's forget about that green onion shoot. You can just help me with something the next time we meet as a compensation for the formula of the medicinal bath. Anyway, it's worthy of being an onion spirit; even its pregnancy cycle is so fast. Congratulations, little friend Shuhang!"

As soon as he finished reading the message, Song Shuhang fell into depression and his head tilted to one side.

At this time, he felt that things would only get worse if he were to make his appearance and try to clear the misunderstanding.

It's over, my life is over...

"Little friend Shuhang?" Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue stretched out her hand and poked him.

Song Shuhang mumbled, "It's over, it's over, it's over..."

Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue felt that leaving Song Shuhang alone for the time being so that he could calm down was the best choice. Thereupon, she cautiously covered the golden coffin once again.

But right at this time, she got a glimpse of the conversation Song Shuhang was having with Medicine Master. They were talking about the formula of a medicinal bath that could allow Song Shuhang to strengthen his constitution.

"Is that one of the last formulas that Medicine Master came up with? It seems a rather economical and practical formula. Unfortunately, it's only suitable for low-level cultivators..."

Eh? Isn't that a pretty good topic to divert his attention?

Thereupon, Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue said, "Little friend Shuhang, do you want the raw materials needed for the formula of the medicinal bath?"

Song Shuhang raised his head and nodded, saying, "Yes."

Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue made some calculations and said, "I have all the raw materials needed for the formula of the medicinal bath stored in this place. I can sell them to you at the purchase price. According to my calculations, you need seven spirit stones of the Third Stage to buy enough raw materials to bathe in the medicinal liquid once. Are you interested?"

"Sure." Song Shuhang stretched out his hand and took out a spirit stone of the Fourth Stage from his pocket.

Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue received the spirit stone of the Fourth Stage and returned Song Shuhang three spirit stones of the Third Stage.

After taking the three spirit stones of the Third Stage, Song Shuhang opened his size-reducing purse and casually threw them inside.

Then, he kept looking at his phone in a daze.

❄️❄️❄️

Three minutes later, Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue returned and moved the lid of the golden coffin to one side.

Afterward, she threw a big basin full of raw materials into the golden coffin... from the looks of it, she wanted to directly use the coffin as a bathtub, allowing Song Shuhang to bathe in there?

After throwing all the raw materials into the coffin, Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue said to Song Shuhang, "Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Saber Song One, you should temporarily leave the superfluous things on your body to me."

Song Shuhang was still in deep thoughts and his body automatically moved, passing his size-reducing purse, mobile phone, and so on to Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue.

After taking the items, Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue shot a glance at Lady Onion who was curled up in one corner of the golden coffin.

At first, she thought of grabbing the monster onion to carry her out of the coffin. But after pondering for a moment, she changed her mind. After all, it was up to her master, Song Shuhang, whether or not he wanted to move her out. There was no need for her to concern herself with this matter. Perhaps the monster onion would also get lucky and strengthen her constitution a bit.

Moreover, she could take advantage of this opportunity to happily bathe together with her master. Who knew, perhaps she would obtain a favorable impression during this bathing session and make a comeback, becoming the favorite woman of her master?

Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue felt that Lady Onion had a pair of beautiful legs. Therefore, she had a very good impression of her.

After throwing all the raw materials into the coffin, Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue swiftly moved her finger and activated a magical technique.

"Whoosh~" A big ball of water suddenly materialized and fell inside the golden coffin, submerging both Song Shuhang and Lady Onion.

"It's time to take the medicinal bath... it might be somewhat painful at first, but try to endure!" Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue said.

Then, without waiting for Song Shuhang or Lady Onion to reply, she moved the lid of the golden coffin back, sealing it.

❄️❄️❄️

At this time, the nearby Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue was already ready to get into action.

Just as Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue sealed the coffin, it threw a small golden flask toward the golden coffin.

Flames shot out of the small flask, igniting once again the firewood and gasoline that Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue had placed there earlier.

Flames endlessly poured out of the small flask, strengthening the power of the fire.

Burn~ Burn~ Burn, baby! Burn! Blazing flames were burning inside Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue's eyes.

"Hmm, it should be enough. According to Medicine Master's formula, Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Saber Song One should be able to thoroughly absorb the strength of the raw materials after soaking in the medicinal water for two hours." Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue nodded satisfied.

❄️❄️❄️

Inside the golden coffin.

As the temperature increased, the medicinal power of the raw materials started to mix with the water.

At this time, Song Shuhang's whole body was submerged in the water. However, the Turtle Breathing Technique Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue applied to his body was still active. Therefore, he didn't need to breathe.

Just as he was looking at the hot bath slowly becoming turbid, Song Shuhang was reminded of the time he prepared the body tempering liquid.

Anyway, Shuhang had started to enjoy the medicinal bath wholeheartedly at this time.

It was better to temporarily forget about the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group discussing the fact that he had seemingly f*cked a green onion. He was an innocent man and had nothing to fear. After the seniors had discussed the matter to their heart's content, he would appear and explain what was going on. The results should be much better that way.

Therefore, he had no reason to be anxious.

After completely relaxing, Song Shuhang finally noticed the effects of the medicinal bath on his body.

As the water was boiling, the power of the raw materials started to automatically enter his body. Their power directly strengthened Song Shuhang's constitution and bones. He felt that each muscle in his body was getting stronger, and the strength they could produce was continuously increasing.

Moreover, the medicinal bath and Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue's golden coffin were perfectly complementing each other, exponentially increasing the efficacy of the raw materials.

If we were to use numbers to explain the situation, we would have the following setting: if the constitution of a cultivator of the First Stage that had just completed its Foundation Establishment was 100 points and the constitution of a cultivator of the Second Stage was 200 points, the level of Song Shuhang's current constitution was around 230 points.

By lying inside the golden coffin and soaking in the medicinal bath, he could increase the strength of his constitution by 0.1 points every three minutes.

After soaking inside the medicinal bath for two hours, the strength of his constitution would increase by around 4 points. This effect was comparable to him painstakingly practicing on Earth for two or three months if he didn't have any medicine pills at his disposal!

According to the estimations, he wouldn't have to worry about the true qi inside his Sea of Qi Dantian causing him problems once he had increased the strength of his constitution until reaching 240 points.

"This medicinal bath is really incredible! It's all thanks to Senior Medicine Master that I can enjoy it," Song Shuhang muttered to himself.

One would obtain the best results the first time they were soaking in this medicinal bath. After each usage, the strengthening effects of the medicine on the constitution would weaken.

But even if that was the case, Song Shuhang could easily increase the strength of his constitution and reach 250 points by soaking in the medicinal bath six times during the course of these three days.

At the time, his constitution would reach the same strength as that of a cultivator of the Second Stage Fourth Dantian Realm!

❄️❄️❄️

Just as Song Shuhang was happily enjoying the strengthening effects of the medicinal bath, Lady Onion, who was shrinking in the tail section of the golden coffin, suddenly screamed in fear, "Aaaaaaah~ What's happening! I'm melting, I'm melting, I'm melting!"

"What?" Song Shuhang raised his head in puzzlement.

Then, he saw a very unscientific scene. Lady Onion... was literally melting.

It started from the legs and spread to the rest of her body... she started to melt just as though she was some kind of slime. But saying that she 'melted like a snow beauty under the sun' was perhaps more fitting in Lady Onion's case.

"I'm dying, I'm dying, I'm dying for real!" Lady Onion's had tears streaming down her face. The fact that she was crazily moving around and struggling only sped up the melting process!

In a very short amount of time, she had already melted until the abdomen... the enlightenment stone was faintly glistening there. If we consider the enlightenment stone as the dividing line, Lady Onion's upper part started to melt and likewise changed into liquid immediately after.

Song Shuhang quickly got up and pounced toward Lady Onion, grabbing the enlightenment stone and trying to move it away from the water of the medicinal bath. "Hey, how come you suddenly melted?"

"I don't know, either! I really don't know! Why did I suddenly melt... Uwaaah! Am I really going to die?!" Lady Onion's wept copiously, looking extremely aggrieved.

Song Shuhang shot a glance at the boiling medicinal liquid below... was it possible that Lady Onion melting was related to the medicinal bath?

He recalled to mind the scene of him preparing the body tempering liquid the first time... if several raw materials were placed together and heated up, they would give rise to a chemical reaction and melt if they were thrown into a liquid!

Is it possible that the liquid of the medicinal bath also gave rise to a chemical reaction, causing Lady Onion to melt?

Just how big of a coincidence was needed to reach such a result!

Anyway, is Lady Onion really going to die this way?

Just as Song Shuhang was in deep thoughts, most of Lady Onion's body had melted...

Shuhang didn't have much time to think. Therefore, he started to beat against the lid of the coffin and quickly asked, "Is your root still there? Hey, is your green onion root still there?"

It was a very important matter.

Even if Lady Onion's green onion shoot was cut off, she could resurrect as long as her root was still intact, continuing to live on happily.

But if even her green onion root had melted, it was truly over for her.

"It's still there, it's still there. But I feel as if even the green onion root is about to melt!" Lady Onion said anxiously.

Actually, it was just her misconception that the root was also about to melt...

Although it was unknown how she had taken root on the enlightenment stone, something like the boiling liquid of a medicinal bath had no chances of melting her root thanks to the protection of the stone.

Song Shuhang used all his strength to beat against the lid of the golden coffin.

Soon after, the lid of the golden coffin was moved to one side.

Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue moved a bit closer and asked, "What's up? Is the water too hot? Eeeeh?! What's happening!"

Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue also saw the melting Lady Onion.

Just as she pushed to one side the lid of the golden coffin, the remaining part of Lady Onion's body melted and fell into the boiling water of the medicinal bath.

"..." Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue.

Did that monster onion die just like that?

"Senior Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue, help me take a look at the enlightenment stone! Lady Onion's root is still above it!" Song Shuhang said anxiously.

"Her root is still intact? It's fine then. Just pour some water on it, and it should quickly grow back." Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue heaved a sigh of relief.

After taking the enlightenment stone, she said, "Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Saber Song One, keep bathing in the medicinal bath, don't waste it."

Song Shuhang nodded and returned inside the golden coffin.

Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue used the lid and covered the coffin once more.

Then, she stretched out her hand and caressed the enlightenment stone. "I can still sense the aura of life coming from it... I'm not sure if I should consider this monster onion lucky or unlucky..."

After saying this much, she used a healing-type magical technique that turned into a rain of light that fell upon the enlightenment stone, allowing Lady Onion's life aura to stabilize even further.

Afterward, she got up and left the chamber tomb.

When she returned, she was carrying a flower pot in her hands which she then used to accommodate the enlightenment stone.

"Maybe I should add some fertilizer as well. It should allow her to grow a little faster..." Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue muttered to herself.

❄️❄️❄️

Outside the grave of Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue, next to the meteoroid.

Inside Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue's immortal boat.

Li Yinzhu was soundly sleeping. The only problem was that the cold inside her body was getting stronger and stronger. At this pace, it wouldn't take long before her cold disease flared up again.

After she was shot out of the grave, Yu Jiaojiao also returned to the immortal boat.

Her mood was pretty good. Although she was unable to obtain Venerable Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue's inheritance, she still obtained a water-type turtle pearl that could keep her body moist, as well as a precious moonstone. She had benefited quite a lot from this trip.

Soon after, Chu Chu also got out of the grave. After getting into the immortal boat, she couldn't help but shoot a glance at Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue. While signing the contract to become the 'Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue', she obviously came to know the secret behind the various 'Cultivators of True Virtue'.

Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue also looked at her and faintly smiled.

"Now, we only need to wait for Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Saber Song One's return."

"Tyrannical Saber Song One, pfff~" Yu Jiaojiao started to laugh. She was already aware of the origin of this dao name, but no matter how many times she heard it, she would always start laughing when she associated it with Song Shuhang.

"Fellow Daoist Song One might take a little longer to come out. He's taking a bath," the clone of the jade white lion Fourth Cultivator of True Virtue said.

He is taking a bath? But why the hell is he taking a bath while exploring an ancient grave? What's the connection between the two things?

Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue smiled and said, "Is it a medicinal bath? As long as the formula of the medicinal bath doesn't have mistakes in it, it's one of the safest methods to strengthen one's constitution."

Whether it was food or a medicinal bath, the recipe was very important.
