Rong Jiaojiao's soul was mistakenly taken by a soul-reaper. After negotiating with him and receiving a series of compensations, she was ready to be reborn after drinking Meng Po's soup. How...
Qing Xuanzi, unaware of how much meat Rong Jiaojiao had eaten, teased her, "We caught two roe deer today. Jiaojiao, don't you want to eat roe deer meat?"
Rong Jiaojiao shook her head: "Chicken legs are delicious."
"Alright, Master will stew chicken legs for you!"
Take out two pheasants, clean their skin and internal organs, set up a simple stove, put in the large pot that is usually used for stewing chicken, and put the two chickens in the pot to stew.
While adding water to the pot, Qing Xuanzi took out some seasonings from his Qiankun Bracelet and sprinkled them into the pot.
He covered the pot with the lid and used magic to control the fire, causing the water in the pot to slowly boil.
"Master, when can we eat?" Rong Jiaojiao sat on a small stool, her eyes fixed on the pot, her mouth watering.
"Don't rush, it'll be ready in a moment," Qing Xuanzi said with a smile. "Once the water in the pot boils, simmer it for a while longer, and the chicken legs will be cooked."
Rong Jiaojiao nodded and sat there obediently waiting.
Qing Xuanzi looked at her, feeling a warmth in his heart.
He took out some dry food and fruit from his Qiankun Bracelet and placed them aside, intending to eat them together after the chicken legs were stewed.
Before long, the pot began to simmer and bubble, and the aroma filled the entire cave.
Rong Jiaojiao's eyes were sparkling, and she was practically drooling.
"Master, it seems to be better!"
Qing Xuanzi opened the pot lid and looked at the chicken legs inside. They were already stewed until tender and flavorful.
He used magic to scoop the chicken leg out of the water, lowered the temperature, placed it on a plate, and then handed it to Rong Jiaojiao.
“Here, be careful, it’s hot. Eat slowly,” he said.
Rong Jiaojiao took the chicken leg, took a bite without waiting, and immediately praised, "Master's stewed chicken leg is the best!"
Seeing her happy expression, Qing Xuanzi felt joyful as well. He took out some spirit wine from his Qiankun Bracelet, poured himself a cup, and slowly drank it.
Although this spirit wine cannot replenish much spiritual power, it can relieve fatigue and relax the mind and body.
After they finished eating, Qing Xuanzi put the food away, then helped Rong Jiaojiao sit down, took out some spiritual liquid, and said to her, "Jiaojiao, sit down quickly and circulate your cultivation technique."
Upon hearing Qing Xuanzi's words, Rong Jiaojiao immediately sat up straight, placed her hands on her knees, closed her eyes, and began to circulate her internal energy.
He gently brought the small sip of wood spirit liquid to Rong Jiaojiao's lips and said softly, "Jiaojiao, open your mouth, take the spirit liquid in, let it dissolve in your mouth, and then slowly swallow it down your throat."
Rong Jiaojiao slightly opened her eyes and saw the Vitality Essence in Qing Xuanzi's hand; her eyes sparkled.
She obediently opened her mouth, allowing Qing Xuanzi to send the spiritual liquid inside.
The moment the elixir entered her mouth, it emitted a faint fragrance, giving her a refreshing sensation.
Rong Jiaojiao immediately followed Qing Xuanzi's instructions, letting the spiritual liquid dissolve in her mouth before slowly swallowing it.
"Delicious!" Rong Jiaojiao said softly, smacking her lips, looking like she wanted more.
"Quickly circulate your energy to refine and absorb it." Qing Xuanzi looked at her and said softly, "After the spiritual liquid enters your body, it will automatically guide your Yuan energy to circulate. You need to cooperate with the cultivation technique to allow the power of the spiritual liquid to integrate into your body, understand?"
Rong Jiaojiao nodded, closed her eyes, and continued to circulate her energy.
She could feel a cool spiritual energy flowing through her body, as if a warm force was nourishing her.
Following the techniques taught by Qing Xuanzi, she guided her spiritual energy to circulate within her body. Gradually, she felt her body become light and airy, as if she were about to fly.
Qing Xuanzi sat to the side, observing Rong Jiaojiao's cultivation progress with his divine sense.
He discovered that after the spiritual liquid entered Rong Jiaojiao's body, her Yuan energy circulated more smoothly, and impurities in her body were gradually expelled.
Gradually, the little girl's face became oily and had a sour smell, so Qing Xuanzi quickly used a cleansing spell on her.
After a long while, Rong Jiaojiao slowly opened her eyes and revealed a big smile.
She looked at Qing Xuanzi and whispered, "Master, I feel so comfortable, I want to sleep."
Qing Xuanzi smiled and patted her head: "Of course, this Wood Spirit Liquid is a good thing. It can help you improve your cultivation and purify your body. We will find more treasures like this in the future to make you even stronger."
Rong Jiaojiao's eyes sparkled with anticipation. She whispered, "Then Master, please drink quickly. When I find something good in the future, I'll give it to you too."
Hearing this, Qing Xuanzi felt a warmth in his heart and praised her, "Jiaojiao is such a good girl. Master knows you are a good child. However, although this Vitality Essence is a good thing, it is not very effective for high-level cultivators, but it is very beneficial for someone like you who has just started cultivating."
Rong Jiaojiao didn't know anything else, she only knew it was a good thing, so she really wanted to share it with her master.
Her eyes were watery as she looked at Qing Xuanzi expectantly and said, "Master, please have a sip too!"
Looking into Rong Jiaojiao's watery eyes, Qing Xuanzi couldn't help but laugh.
He gently ruffled her hair and said, "Alright, Master, have a sip too."
He took out a small jade bottle from the Qiankun Bracelet, took out a small sip of the wood essence and put it into his mouth.
The elixir melted instantly upon entering his mouth, and a cool sensation spread throughout his body, making him feel refreshed.
"Hmm, this wood essence is indeed quite good. Although it doesn't have much effect on high-level cultivators, it's still quite good for conditioning the body and stabilizing cultivation." Qing Xuanzi said softly, a hint of satisfaction on his face.
Rong Jiaojiao saw Qing Xuanzi take a sip, her eyes full of anticipation, and asked, "Master, is it delicious?"
Qing Xuanzi nodded: "It tastes good. This wood essence has a faint fragrance. After drinking it, I feel much more refreshed."
Rong Jiaojiao smiled happily upon hearing this, her little face flushed, making her look exceptionally adorable.
Qing Xuanzi pinched her cheek and said, "Alright, you look so energetic, you're not sleepy yet. Take another sip of the Wood Essence Liquid and continue your cultivation."
Qing Xuanzi drew out a small sip of the wood essence from the jade bottle and brought it to Rong Jiaojiao's lips.
Rong Jiaojiao eagerly opened her mouth. As soon as the spiritual liquid entered her mouth, she closed her eyes and began to circulate her cultivation technique to refine it according to the method taught by Qing Xuanzi.
Qing Xuanzi sat to the side, continuing to observe Rong Jiaojiao's cultivation with his divine sense.
He discovered that as the wood essence was continuously refined, the Yuan energy within Rong Jiaojiao's body became purer and its circulation speed increased.
Her body was also gradually adapting to the changes brought about by this spiritual liquid, becoming more agile.
"Master, I feel a power growing inside my body," Rong Jiaojiao said excitedly as she opened her eyes, her little face full of surprise.
Qing Xuanzi smiled slightly: "That means your cultivation level is improving. The Wood Essence Liquid can help you better absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, allowing your cultivation level to progress faster."
