"Father, Mother, we're leaving now."

After finishing breakfast, Sui Xin waved goodbye to Ye Hao and Lu Yeling with Xi Yun and headed towards Xiaoyao Peak.

Along the way, Suixin told Xiyun about the demands his master had made of him the previous morning.

Sui Xin asked Xi Yun, "How about we finish our tasks early this afternoon and go out to play together?"

"Hmm," Xiyun replied. Her past experiences had made her more mature than other children, unlike Suixin who was playful, but she didn't refuse either.

In the cultivation room of Xiaoyao Peak

"True Qi is about drawing Qi into the body, circulating it throughout the body, filling the Qi Sea, and breaking through the shackles," Lin Miao explained to Sui Xin and the other person.

The True Qi Realm, also known as the Foundation Realm, is divided into nine minor stages and largely determines the future achievements of a cultivator.

Just like building a house, the better the foundation, the taller and more sturdy the house will be.

"What you need to do today is to guide the Qi into your body, circulate it throughout your body, and let the spiritual energy flow into your Qi Sea,"

"Let's see how many cycles we can complete in one morning," Lin Miao said, looking at the two of them, her usual playful demeanor gone.

"So how exactly do we do it?" I asked casually.

"Don't rush, I will draw the spiritual energy in the air into your bodies. All you have to do is feel and accept the spiritual energy and gather it in your dantian." After saying that, Lin Ling reached out and guided a beam of light into the two of them.

Sui Xin felt the white energy flowing through his body; the gentle spiritual energy nourished his internal organs, bringing him a sense of comfort. "Ah, so this is spiritual energy?"

Try to channel the spiritual energy into your dantian, and then, as you wish, slowly guide it towards your dantian.

"When spiritual energy circulates around the dantian once, it is called one cycle. Remember the number of cycles. The more cycles you have, the faster you will advance," Lin Ling's voice rang in my ears.

Two hours later.

Gradually, Lin Miao stopped guiding the spiritual energy, wanting them to try it themselves to see if they could control the spiritual energy in the air on their own.

As soon as he stopped, a vortex appeared beneath Sui Xin, and spiritual energy surged into it.

"This is... such a fast absorption speed," Lin Ling was somewhat surprised, feeling the immense attraction emanating from Sui Xin.

Just now, Lin Ling concentrated all the spiritual energy scattered in the air into a single line and injected it into the two of them. No change in the surrounding spiritual energy could be seen. Now that she has stopped, the change is immediately obvious.

Lin Miao then looked at Xi Yun on the other side, "Little Yun'er is not slow either."

Time passed second by second...

"Why haven't we completed a full circle yet? I don't even know how long it's been running." After spinning around for most of the day, I still haven't returned to the starting point of my Qi Sea.

The Qi Sea is so vast, it seems to stretch to the horizon. Sui Xin felt somewhat helpless.

Xi Yun was also diligently circulating her spiritual energy, and before she knew it, she had completed a full circle.

There were only the three of them in the room. Sui Xin and Xi Yun sat on the ground absorbing spiritual energy, while Lin Miao rested on a stool to the side.

Outside, the sun hung high in the sky, and a gentle breeze caressed the eaves, rustling the leaves.

"Time's up, let's stop," Lin Ling said slowly, looking at the two of them.

"How do you feel? How many cycles have you completed?" he asked, looking at the two who opened their eyes one after the other.

Xi Yun said, "About ten laps."

Sui Xin was a little disappointed. "Wow? That's amazing. I've only completed one lap."

"What? What kind of weirdos are you guys?"

Take Xi Yun for example, it can rotate ten times in half a day. What a terrifying speed! Even the most talented disciples in the sect can only rotate five times a day at most, which is about four times faster than Xi Yun.

As for Sui Xin, I thought his circulation speed would be fast, after all, he absorbed so much spiritual energy, but who knew it only completed one cycle.

"Don't be discouraged, Suixin. It's okay to go slower. It's probably because your Qi Sea is too big and you need too much spiritual energy. Going slower is good and helps you build a solid foundation," Lin Miao comforted Suixin.

"Hmm," Sui Xin nodded, knowing that Xi Yun possessed excellent aptitude as a Chaos Body.

So although I was a little disappointed, I wasn't frustrated.

"From now on, cultivate like this every morning. Let me know when your Qi Sea is filled with spiritual energy," Lin Ling continued.

"Mm," the two nodded in response.

"Let's go, it's lunchtime, let's eat first."

When Lin Ling came out with the medicine, the two of them had dark faces.

It tasted just as bad as yesterday, only slightly sweeter. But neither of them said anything; they just frowned and slowly ate it.

After resting for half an hour, we began our afternoon tasks.

Lin Miao handed each of them a book: "This is the 'Pharmacopoeia.' You can leave after you've memorized the first half of the first chapter this afternoon."

The Pharmacopoeia contains nearly 10,000 chapters, each of which records about 100 kinds of medicinal materials.

The first three thousand chapters are about common medicinal herbs, four to six thousand are about famous herbs, seven to nine thousand are about divine herbs, and the last thousand are about sacred herbs. Lin Miao plans to have the two of them spend three or four years memorizing the famous herbs chapter.

"You need to memorize the appearance, effects, growing environment, and compatibility with other herbs for the first half of this book. I'll quiz you tomorrow morning, understand?"

"clear"

"Alright, you can memorize it yourselves. Once you're done, you can leave. I'll be sleeping in the main seat in the hall. Call me if you need anything," he said, yawning as he walked out of the cultivation room.

"Little Yun'er, hurry up, finish reciting so we can go out and play," Sui Xin said, looking at Xi Yun.

The latter nodded slightly and then began to recite silently.

Unbeknownst to anyone, a golden light flashed in Sui Xin's eyes.

"Sanqi grows in the deep mountains of various prefectures and remote areas. The roots are harvested and dried in the sun; they are yellowish-black. The clustered ones are somewhat similar in appearance to Bletilla striata; the long ones resemble old dried Rehmannia glutinosa, with nodes. The taste is slightly sweet and bitter, quite similar to ginseng..."
