Since the body tempering was over, she was used to a lot of exercise. Today she only climbed a mountain. Li Yirou didn't even feel tired or hungry in the evening.
Duobao was fed some paste made from a mixture of insects, rice paste, fruits and, most importantly, the leaves of the spirit-boosting grass. Duobao finished it quickly and this time he was able to half open his eyes and whimpered a few times.
Rats do grow very fast. Li Yirou sighed and used the Dust Removal Technique to clean up their excrement.
These spiritual plants were raised in the space, and when they grew up, their quality was higher than those planted in the sect, so she didn't dare to take them out.
It was a bit of a pity at first, but now, besides using it myself, I can also use it on Duobao and Taxue, so it’s not a waste.
She didn't dare send anyone else off, even Aunt Xiuling, and was on guard. If someone accidentally saw her, it would harm Wang Xiuling and bring disaster upon herself. How could she escape so lucky every time?
.
A few days passed, and it was finally time to collect the monthly salary. Li Yiru went to the Deacon's Hall, where Chang Shuqing was on duty.
"Junior sister, are you here to collect your monthly salary?" He guessed what she was here for. Li Yiru responded with a smile and handed him the token.
"Here are spirit stones and pills, for you." Chang Shuqing said, took the token and gave her 5 points.
Li Yirou was anxious to buy the formation plate, so she asked Chang Shuqing, "Brother, I heard that outer and inner disciples can take on quests. Is there anything I can take on?"
"Junior sister, have you reached the first level of Qi Refining?" He asked tentatively, intending to let her back off, but unexpectedly she nodded.
But he thought about it and realized that after all, he had the guidance of a Foundation Establishment Elder, and Elder Han was the most advanced elder in the sect. He was only surprised for a moment, "It's just that the tasks for low-level cultivators aren't very good. The points aren't high, it's a waste of time, and it's difficult to do."
Chang Shuqing picked and chose, and found that she could only complete two of them. The rest were watering and caring for spiritual plants, and hunting specified types of monsters, which required at least the third level of Qi Refining.
There were also some errands for outer disciples to run, and they were all rewarded with spirit beads. Li Yiru wanted points, but that was not possible.
Chang Shuqing showed her: "First, clean the feces of twenty spirit pets in the Spirit Beast Garden. Requirements: Know how to use the Dust Removal Technique. Do this once a day, 1 point for every five times you do this. Cleaning must be continuous; points will not be accumulated for less than five days."
The second is patrol duty. This requires one to patrol the sect for a day, not staying in one place for more than a quarter of an hour, and not meditating or practicing. One point is awarded every three days.
Li Yiru prefers to clean up the spirit beast garden, as this task saves time. The other one, although it earns more points, is too tiring.
She thought that she cleaned for Duobao every day and didn't mind.
By taking on this extra job, she can earn 6 points a month, plus her original 5 points, she will have enough points to complete the formation in two months.
The requirement is a bit strange. You have to shovel for 5 consecutive days to get 1 point, otherwise it will be in vain.
Could it be that if she accepted the offer, they would give her something to do on the fifth day, preventing her from coming and thus not earning any points? Li Yirou couldn't help but speculate.
Chang Shuqing felt that both tasks were not suitable. Patrol missions were usually taken over by outer disciples whose cultivation could not be improved, and no one did the patrol mission in the Spirit Beast Garden on weekdays.
"Junior sister, I suggest you wait a little longer before buying the formation plate. There's no need to rush. You know that a cultivator's five senses are heightened. Although the Spirit Beast Garden only has a few flying spirit beasts, the stench is so stinking it can make you faint."
"Before the fifth level of Qi Refining, one cannot close the five senses, and cultivators after the fifth level look down on this little bit of points, so no one is willing to take it."
Li Yiru could not tell anyone else why she urgently needed the formation plate. She could only insist that she wanted to give it a try, and if it didn't work, she would stop after earning 1 point.
Chang Shuqing shook his head after hearing this, but still included the task in her token. It's really not easy for Junior Sister. Even though she became an inner disciple, she doesn't live as well as outer disciples with better spiritual roots.
Li Yiru checked the token and saw a small dot at the location of the Spirit Beast Garden. She followed the light and finally saw the Spirit Beast Garden far away from the sect's living area.
Just outside the door, she felt something was wrong and wrapped her nose with several layers of cloth before she dared to step in.
I finally understand why no one answered. There are not only twenty flying spirit beasts here, but also spirit beasts raised by the elders who have built their foundation. I don’t know if they are provoking each other or something, but they all left their breath and left after they finished.
A pungent smell rushed into Li Yiru's nose, and she couldn't help but dry heave twice. The cloth strips could not stop it at all. Even her eyes felt stinging and tears began to flow.
Moreover, the shit of these big guys was too big. Li Yiru had never seen a pile of shit as high as half her calf. She quickly used magic to clean it up.
After cleaning half of it, the spiritual energy in her dantian had been used up. It was already night, and if she meditated to recover, she didn't know how long it would take, and whether it would be recorded as incomplete cleaning for the day.
This job was so difficult that Li Yiru didn't even dare to sigh, for fear of taking one more breath.
But she had already done so much, she didn't want to give up, and thought of giving it a try with the spiritual energy in the space, but she didn't expect it really worked!
Perhaps it was because she had reached the first level of Qi Refining, the spiritual energy in the space could now be directly channeled and transformed into spells, which made her very grateful.
After cleaning the other half of the spirit beast garden and recording the completion of the day's task on the token, Li Yiru hurriedly ran home without looking back.
It was so stinky and spicy! The smell left an indelible mark on her. Fortunately, her clothes wouldn't be stained by the smell, but she still had hallucinations and felt like she was being marinated!
I took a few deep breaths of the fresh scent of grass and trees in the yard, and I felt much better.
Duobao was still sleeping soundly on the pillow, but the rice porridge in the plate next to him had been drunk up.
Taxue was lying on the Arhat chair waiting for her. When he saw her come in, he had a faint scent of another monster on her body. He stood up and smelled it carefully. It was very faint and dissipated as she took a few steps.
Li Yirou raised her eyebrows, saw Taxue's nose twitching constantly, and explained to it.
When I was cleaning Duobao's excrement, I felt touched when I saw the tiny pieces.
After cleaning up the big ones, she cleans up the small ones. She is a real poop shoveler.
"Taxue, you should also drink some rice porridge. I'll make more." Li Yiru touched Taxue's little head. When replenishing Duobao with spiritual herbs, Taxue must also be included.
Today was not easy, but there were also some gains. While cooking, Li Yiru observed the endless spiritual energy in the space. This is a golden finger!
Other cultivators have to replenish their spells after using them, and in order to make the spells work best, they need to cycle through them.
And since she has spatial aura, everything can be simplified!
From then on, she meditated solely to improve her cultivation, restore her spirit, and sense the five elements of spiritual energy.
During the battle, someone like my senior sister would be defeated due to insufficient spiritual power, but she has space and her spiritual energy can be replenished at any time, so there is no restriction on her use.
But continuous practice is still needed. Li Yiru thought that she had to go to the second peak to find monsters to practice with and control the rhythm.
She also needs to see how far people with similar cultivation levels can go in the competition arena. Otherwise, if she accidentally shows in front of others that the time limit for her to use her spiritual energy exceeds her cultivation level, it will attract more detection.
