Chapter 4 System, come out and let's talk



As soon as the system voice fell, the fertile fields and springs in front of her disappeared, and she was still sitting on the bed.

What should I use to identify it?

This cooking system should be used to identify ingredients, but she doesn’t have any ingredients on hand right now!

I wonder if you can identify something else?

Lu Xianyun saw the spirit stone he was about to use for cultivation, this was it!

He stared at the spirit stone and communicated with the system in his mind: "Identify!"

"A low-grade spirit stone, containing numerous impurities and low spiritual energy content. In short: garbage."

Lu Xianyun: “…”

She suddenly had the urge to beat up this system.

It's bad enough that he spoke rudely when issuing the task, but now he acts so condescending and looks down on everything when identifying something.

It's true that hers is a low-grade spirit stone, but it shouldn't be described as "trash"? If their sect had a lot of high-grade spirit stones, why would they need to cling to other sects?

Even in those big sects, low-level disciples can only get one low-grade spirit stone a month!

But the next second, Lu Xianyun was no longer angry.

"Mission completed, reward issued - host's cultivation level increased to the middle stage of foundation building."

Just by using the identification technique, my cultivation level has improved significantly. Is there anything more exciting than this?

Unable to wait, Lu Xianyun quickly asked the system, "What's the next task?"

The system's voice sounded again: "Now issuing the third task: If you can't even light a fire, how can you be a cook?

"Host, please learn how to make fire as soon as possible, master the power of fire perfectly, and reach the level of being able to control the size of the fire at will.

"Reward: Issued upon completion of the mission."

The scene in front of me changed again. This time, I was not in a field, but in a room that looked like a kitchen.

At this moment she was standing in front of the stove.

Whether she was standing in the dirt just now or in the kitchen now, Lu Xianyun could feel that she was merely entering the system through her consciousness. But when she touched the kitchen stove, it felt icy cold; the feeling couldn't be more real.

"This is a virtual kitchen created by this system to train the host. The touch feels real, and the flow of time is different from that of the outside world. Please work hard, host."

Lu Xianyun nodded.

Understand.

In the world of consciousness, time definitely passes faster than in the real world.

Learning to make fire, right?

Lu Xianyun glanced at the empty stomach under the stove and curled his lips in silence. He muttered as he looked around the kitchen, "System, this is not good. You can't keep up with the times. You know I'm a modern person, right? Don't you know that we modern people have been using induction cookers and gas stoves for a long time?"

After looking around but not finding any firewood, Lu Xianyun had no choice but to ask the system, "System, there's no firewood in this kitchen? Why isn't there even a door? Please at least let me go out and find some firewood!"

"How can someone who strives to become a cooking god use ordinary firewood? Are you still a cultivator?" the system retorted mercilessly.

have to!

Lu Xianyun understood.

What I mean is to use magic!

When I looked up again, I found that there was a pot full of water on the empty stove.

"Host, please practice boiling water and bring it to a boil."

This pot wasn't the small pot she'd used in her previous life. This large iron pot on the stovetop was big enough to be used as a bathtub.

Lu Xianyun used his strength from the Foundation Establishment Stage to condense a small fireball in his palm.

Then she reached under the stove.

Using such a small fireball to boil water is actually only slightly better than using a candle to burn a pot.

A cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage hasn't completely transcended the mortal realm, and is only slightly stronger than an ordinary person. After all, if your meridians aren't even open, how can you possibly possess great supernatural powers?

Relying on the incomplete spiritual energy circulation in the body, being able to cast spells is already very good!

Without entering the Qi Refining Stage, no cyclone would form in the Dantian to store spiritual energy, so the small fireball in Lu Xianyun's hand soon went out.

At this time, there was not even a bubble in the water in the pot.

When the spiritual power was fully restored and used to light a fire again, the water in the pot had already cooled down.

If he reheated it like this, Lu Xianyun estimated that he would never be able to boil the water in his lifetime.

"System, come out and let's talk." Lu Xianyun was annoyed.

"Host, please cheer up and keep working hard."

After the system made this sound, it started to play dead.

Next, Lu Xianyun fell into dire straits.

She felt that she was not a cultivator, but a scientist.

She wanted to study serious scientific questions such as whether it is easier to heat up when the heat is concentrated, or faster to heat up when it is evenly distributed; how to produce more heat with limited spiritual power and how to avoid wasting heat; and whether sufficient oxygen can still help combustion in the absence of combustible materials.

In the end, Lu Xianyun tortured himself like a person who had not slept for several days and nights, and even had dark circles under his eyes.

The loss of spiritual power is too serious!

Fortunately, the system didn't lock her in that virtual kitchen, forbidding her from leaving until the water boiled. Lu Xianyun withdrew from consciousness, realizing that her hard work was pointless and she needed to seek help.

Lu Xianyun knocked on his brother's door.

The door opened. Lu Muyun glanced at Lu Xianyun and frowned. "Sister, what's wrong with you? Why has your cultivation level dropped? And you look so haggard. Are you injured?"

Lu Xianyun waved his hand, signaling him not to mention it.

"Let me ask you, if you don't have enough spiritual energy and nothing to burn, how can you continuously cast fire spells, and make the flames fierce?"

"Take the elixir!" Lu Muyun immediately gave a solution.

"What if there is no Huiling Pill?"

"Then you can cast spells while recovering your spiritual power! However, our usual method is to meditate and practice, and if you want to cast spells at the same time, meditation is impossible. It depends on whether you have the ability to do two things at once.

"Putting a few spirit stones nearby to increase the concentration of spiritual energy might make things easier. However..."

Lu Muyun glanced at Lu Xianyun and raised an eyebrow. "You? I guess there's no hope!"

After saying that, he quickly closed the door with a bang.

If I was a step late, my sister would either slap my head or twist my ears.

Lu Xianyun took a deep breath and endured it.

"You haven't told me whether there is any way to increase the fire!" Lu Xianyun shouted outside the door.

"The wind fuels the fire, and you can cast wind spells at the same time! But that's like trying three things at once. You have to absorb spiritual energy and cast two spells at the same time, and you have to allocate the spiritual energy between the two spells in the right ratio. Forget it, you can't do it! Instead of wasting time, you'd better continue practicing to increase your level and gain more spiritual energy!"

I would like to, but the system won't let me!

Lu Xianyun said depressedly in his heart.

Lu Xianyun was skeptical about whether her brother's method would work. After all, if the system didn't allow her to practice, could she still absorb spiritual energy from the outside world?
