Chapter 98 Finally broke through

Lin Xiaoman works hard every day to take good care of the spiritual grains in the spiritual fields. He draws talismans during the day and practices hard at night.

In this way, I finally collected the second wave of spiritual rice in advance at the end of the month and handed it over, completing the fifth task of the year and getting 10 points.

After returning to Fufeng, he handed the newly drawn 200 advanced basic talismans to Qin Shuyu, "Senior Sister Qin, these are what I drew recently."

She had already handed in the previous fireball talisman, completing this month's Fufeng mission. Now, for this new reward task, she planned to draw more and leave a good impression on Senior Sister Qin first.

"good."

For the next period of time, Lin Xiaoman stayed in Fufeng and did not go out. He drew talismans, practiced, occasionally petted cats, and sat in the yard in a daze, feeling very relaxed and comfortable.

More than half a year passed like this. During this period, Lin Xiaoman took on three more tasks from Fu Feng and completed eight of the ten main tasks.

At the same time, the points accumulated reached 300.

And now, she felt that she was just one step away from reaching the fifth level of Qi Refining Stage, as if she could break through at any moment.

At this point, Lin Xiaoman decided to go into seclusion for a while and focus on this matter.

To this end, she went to the sect specifically to exchange for a bottle of Purple Spirit Pill and two bottles of Yuan Spirit Pill, plus the Qiangwu Grass in her storage bag. This grass was precious and would be used when she needed a critical breakthrough. Lin Xiaoman wanted to try the pill first, and if that didn't work, she would use the Qiangwu Grass.

Lin Xiaoman didn't have many concerns in Tianyan Sect, so not much attention was paid to her going into seclusion.

After saying something to Wang Musen, Zhang Xiaoxiao and others, Lin Xiaoman began to prepare for his retreat.

Everything was ready. He stroked Tuanzi's head and said, "Tuanzi, I'm going to retreat for a breakthrough. You better take care of your own meals during this time."

"Meow."

Lin Xiaoman knew that she was clear about it, so he sat down cross-legged and practiced, preparing for a breakthrough.

He stuffed a Yuanling Pill into his mouth, set up the advanced spirit gathering array, put in spirit stones to activate it, and at the same time took out most of the spirit stones in his storage bag and placed them around. He casually held two in his hand and prepared to break through with all his heart.

Now the spiritual power in her body is like a bucket that is already full, but only one drop is missing, and the bucket will be completely filled and overflow.

I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly at a certain moment, Lin Xiaoman seemed to hear a popping sound, as if the drop of water broke something, and the water finally overflowed.

The barrier was broken, Lin Xiaoman's whole body trembled, and a familiar feeling of breakthrough came over her. She couldn't help but feel happy.

After a long time, feeling the surge of spiritual power in his body, Lin Xiaoman finally confirmed that he had broken through to the fifth level of Qi Refining Stage.

After opening his eyes, Lin Xiaoman held his breath and quickly performed several cleansing spells on himself. His body instantly felt refreshed and the room smelled fresh.

Lin Xiaoman jumped out of bed suddenly, stretched out his hands and jumped up and down, "Oh, I seem to have grown a little taller."

She gestured to herself and found that it was a little higher, but not much, it was five floors.

This time the breakthrough was much faster than the previous one in Andu City. It turned out that the spiritual energy was richer and the cultivation speed was faster.

"Meow~"

Lin Xiaoman turned to look at Tuanzi who was congratulating him, and picked her up with a smile, "Hahaha Tuanzi, you are happy for me too, right? I made a breakthrough."

Once I break through to the seventh level of Qi Refining and draw the Rejuvenation Talisman, I will be a high-level Talisman Master and earn more spirit stones. From then on, we will eat the meat of third-level monsters every day, and we won’t even look down on second-level monsters.

"Meow."

Carrying Tuanzi out of the house, Lin Xiaoman first cleaned up the dust accumulated in the house during the days of seclusion, and then ran to the kitchen to cook a sumptuous meal. The monster meat in the storage bag was almost gone, so it seemed that he had to ask Wang Musen to buy some more.

While eating, Lin Xiaoman calculated the time and found that more than half a month had passed since his retreat.

It is autumn now, and the yard is filled with the fragrance of osmanthus. Lin Xiaoman lies comfortably in a rocking chair, basking in the sun, and almost falls asleep.

"Well, get us some nice meat."

Rubbing the dumpling in his arms, Lin Xiaoman took out the Immortal Friend Circle and said, "Brother Wang, I want to buy some third-level monster meat. Do you have any?"

"Junior Sister Lin has come out of seclusion. There is some third-level monster meat, but it's only the meat of a third-level antelope."

"I want it. When is it convenient for me to pick it up?"

"I'll send it to you. I just need your help with something."

"good."

Lin Xiaoman stood up, stretched, and practiced the wind-stepping steps in the yard. Soon Wang Musen came.

"Congratulations, Junior Sister Lin, you've made a breakthrough."

As soon as he entered the yard, Wang Musen saw that Lin Xiaoman had made a breakthrough and congratulated her with a smile.

"Hahaha, what a lucky chance."

Lin Xiaoman happily bowed to him, and while talking, they skillfully traded the monster meat. Wang Musen couldn't wait to talk about other things.

"I came here to tell you about the trip to the secret realm in a month. How about we team up together?"

"ah?"

Lin Xiaoman was confused. A trip to a secret place? What?

Wang Musen: ...He was no longer surprised by Lin Xiaoman's lack of information, so he explained. "A secret realm has appeared near the edge of the Misty Forest. The seniors have already explored it and found that only Qi Refining cultivators can enter. It happens to be the border between our Tianyan Sect and the Myriad Beasts Sect. So after discussion, the two sides decided to send 100 Qi Refining disciples each to enter the secret realm for training."

Lin Xiaoman blinked. When had such a big thing happened? She probably didn't go out enough and didn't use her Immortal Friends Circle enough.

"You, you, if you don't go out, you should check your circle of friends occasionally. Don't just practice and draw talismans all day long."

Wang Musen shook his head helplessly and said this, but when he saw Lin Xiaoman break through to the fifth level of Qi Refining Stage so quickly, he couldn't help but pause. Well, concentrating on cultivation also has its benefits.

"Okay, okay, I will pay attention next time. However, we are only at the fifth level of the Qi Refining Stage. In this case, shouldn't the sect send disciples with advanced Qi Refining Stage cultivation?" They are weak, so if they go there, they will just be cannon fodder.

"Of course, those at the eighth and ninth levels of the Qi Refining Stage will go, but we'll also arrange for some disciples at the fifth to seventh levels to go there, mainly for training. It's said that the danger there isn't that great, and our relationship with the Myriad Beast Sect is pretty good, so there won't be any fatal conflicts between the two sides. Therefore, both sects have decided not to send all of their disciples at the advanced levels of the Qi Refining Stage."

Lin Xiaoman suddenly realized, that's how it is.

"Secret realms usually contain a lot of natural treasures. If you go in and collect a lot, you can exchange them for a lot of points when you hand them over to the sect."

Wang Musen was thrilled. He was certain he'd be able to go this time; his brother had already arranged everything for him. This position wasn't easy to compete for. "If I go in, I'm sure I'll get rich."

Get rich?

Lin Xiaoman's eyes lit up, and she had to admit, she was tempted. "Can I? I think a lot of people would like to go."

"Don't worry, leave it to me. As long as you want to go, I'll find a way." Wang Musen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard her agree, and patted his chest to make the promise.
