Upon waking up, Lin Xiaoman found herself transmigrated, and to a fantastical, vibrant cultivation world at that! Fortunately, she possessed...
Chapter 58: Qi Refining Stage 3
Lin Xiaoman practiced obsessively. The next morning, Lin Xiaoman sensed his own cultivation level.
"Tuanzi, this is really a good product. The advanced spirit gathering array is different."
The spiritual power in her body was at least two strands more than yesterday, and she felt that she was closer to a breakthrough.
Lin Xiaoman happily put away the spirit gathering array and collected the five spirit stones. Seeing that one night had passed and one third of them had been gone, he felt a pang of pain.
That’s right, the advanced spirit gathering array requires five spirit stones each time it is activated, and they are used up very quickly. As expected, cultivation requires the accumulation of spirit stones.
However, anything is possible as long as it can improve her cultivation level, and she has a lot of spirit stones now. After changing to a high-level spirit gathering array, she still has more than two thousand spirit stones.
I don't know if all workplaces are particularly idle for a period of time after the New Year, but the talisman shop where Lin Xiaoman works is like this. After the New Year, she still has the task of making 500 basic talismans every month. In addition, she also makes the intermediate basic talismans assigned to them by Senior Yuan. The task is not heavy and there is no need to work overtime, so Lin Xiaoman has more time to practice.
Because he saw the hope of a breakthrough and bought an advanced spirit gathering array, Lin Xiaoman had great expectations for the breakthrough, so he spent most of his time on cultivation.
The days were fulfilling and time passed quickly. The cold winter retreated and the early spring became warm. When the first crop of rice planted by Lin Xiaoman in the field began to ear, Lin Xiaoman finally felt that a breakthrough was just around the corner. This made her excited and expectant. She even saved time for cooking to practice. At the same time, the spirit stones in her storage bag were also decreasing. In just a few months, her spirit stones had shrunk by nearly 500 spirit stones.
"Meow!"
Maybe because he hadn't cooked for Tuanzi recently, Lin Xiaoman always bought steamed buns or meat buns from the market and shared half with Tuanzi. Tuanzi was tired of them, and when he saw that Lin Xiaoman was eating meat buns again today, he meowed at her with a lack of interest.
"Hey, Tuanzi, wait for me a little longer. I'm sorry to have wronged you. When I break through, I'll go to Mo Qingshan to catch fish for you. I can catch a first-level monster in a matter of minutes, and you can eat fresh meat every day."
Lin Xiaoman reached out and stroked the cat, whispered to her, then set up the spirit gathering array and prepared to practice.
Seeing her familiar movements, Tuanzi knew that there would be no good food to eat today, so she could only lower her head and eat the buns. After finishing a bun and filling her stomach, Tuanzi meowed softly and turned to look at the moonlight outside the house. Suddenly, at some point, she turned back and looked at Lin Xiaoman.
"Meow~"
As if sensing something, Tuanzi's cat hair stood up and he stretched comfortably. If Lin Xiaoman opened his eyes at this time, he would see the smile on Tuanzi's face.
But obviously she had no time to look at it at this moment, because the spiritual power in her body was surging and washing over her tendons and veins. She waited and waited, and finally the last drop of water came, filling the entire bucket and overflowing.
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Xiaoman opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and a bright smile appeared on his face.
"Ahhh Tuanzi, I broke through, I broke through, hahahahahahaha."
Lin Xiaoman jumped up excitedly, hugged Tuanzi beside her, and danced and spun around in the room. She had finally made a breakthrough. "Hahaha Tuanzi, I'll buy you some fish today. Can we come back tonight for fish hotpot? Hahaha, he's at the third level of the Qi Refining Stage."
A year has passed since Lin Xiaoman officially entered the world of cultivating immortals by drawing Qi into her body. She has finally broken through to the third level of Qi Refining Stage. She still has two years left. If she can break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining Stage in these two years, she can join the Tianyan Sect, a big sect.
"Meow."
When Tuanzi heard that there was fish to eat, he meowed happily and stopped struggling, allowing Lin Xiaoman to stroke him.
"Come on, Tuanzi, let's have some spiritual rice porridge in the morning. We'll be able to eat new spiritual rice in a few days. Oh, I'm also going to buy some tofu today. It's so delicious with tofu in fish hot pot. I'm sure you'll like it."
After performing a few cleaning techniques on herself, Lin Xiaoman carried Tuanzi into the kitchen. She had eaten all the monster meat in her storage bag, even the dried meat. Now she could only eat spiritual rice porridge, some radish side dishes, and at most some egg custard as her meat dish.
After more than half a month, Tuanzi finally had a hot meal and happily meowed towards Lin Xiaoman. "Meow~"
Lin Xiaoman smiled, and felt guilty seeing her like this. She was not like this. After all, she went to work every day and could eat in the shop at noon. It was a pity that the shop did not allow people to take food out.
She patted Tuanzi's head and said, "Oh, you have suffered so much, Tuanzi. I will make you a delicious fish hot pot when I come back tonight."
She broke through, oh my god, I feel so happy just thinking about it.
On the way to the shop, Lin Xiaoman's steps were brisk and quick. He didn't even use a speed talisman. He only used spells and ran all the way to the market. His speed was not slower than that of a speed talisman.
When they arrived at the market town, the excitement in Lin Xiaoman's heart finally subsided a little. He then slowly stopped and walked towards the talisman shop.
As soon as I entered the shop, I ran into Zhang Shanshan who came over, "Lin Xiaoman, good morning, you you you..."
Ever since they met during that competition, Zhang Shanshan had often come to see Lin Xiaoman, and they had become quite familiar with each other. But when she saw Lin Xiaoman today, she immediately realized something was wrong. Lin Xiaoman had actually made a breakthrough!!!
"Really a breakthrough?"
Zhang Shanshan was still a little unconvinced, so she quickly walked forward and pulled Lin Xiaoman to ask.
"Well, it was a fluke."
Lin Xiaoman smiled and nodded in agreement. There was nothing to hide. She wanted to break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining Stage and join the Tianyan Sect. This could be said to be the goal of all the new cultivators who came to Andu City last year.
"Wow! Lin Xiaoman, you're amazing! It's only been a year, and you're only seven years old, but you've already reached the third level of the Qi Refining Stage. Oh, nice to meet you, Senior Sister Lin."
As Zhang Shanshan spoke, she suddenly smiled, took two steps back, and bowed to Lin Xiaoman.
In the world of cultivating immortals, age is not important. Seniority and titles are determined by strength. Lin Xiaoman deserves the title of senior sister.
"Just by luck, you're about to break through."
Lin Xiaoman smiled and bowed to her, then pulled her to the backyard.
In just one morning, everyone who should know the news in the shop knew it. Tang Chengchao couldn't even wait until noon and came to congratulate her. He also gave her a stack of talisman paper to congratulate her, and Li Ling also gave her a piece of talisman ink.
Lin Xiaoman felt a little embarrassed, but since he was planning to have fish hotpot in the evening, he invited them to join him.
"Okay, okay, I haven't eaten your cooking in a long time. It must taste great."
Seeing that Lin Xiaoman was still humble and the same as before despite breaking through to the third level of Qi Refining Stage, Tang Chengchao breathed a sigh of relief, his facial expression relaxed a lot, and he nodded repeatedly.
