Go!
"You've only just begun your cultivation; you're already behind many others. Know that not everyone has the same aptitude as the Princess Consort!"
Granny Rui smiled gently, gesturing for Magpie to hurry up and cultivate. If talent is lacking, resources can compensate; if resources are insufficient, time can make up for it. Diligence can make up for shortcomings!
While spiritual practice certainly requires certain aptitudes, the resources available for practice and the time spent on it are equally important.
"Thank you, Granny Xiang and Granny Rui. However, Magpie's meridians are incomplete, and he cannot cultivate until this problem is resolved!"
Magpie did not hide anything from Granny Rui and Granny Xiang, nor did she feign loyalty.
When Granny Rui and Granny Xiang heard Magpie's words, they were both stunned.
Granny Xiang then directly placed her hand on Magpie's wrist to take her pulse. During this time, she channeled a small amount of spiritual energy into Magpie's meridians to examine their condition.
In just a moment, Granny Xiang let go of her hand.
"A body with severed meridians!"
Granny Xiang's expression was one of utter shock.
This body with severed meridians is even rarer than the Five Elements Spiritual Body Transformation.
"There's always a way out. Everything has a chance, so don't despair!"
This was all the old woman, Xiang, could say to comfort the magpie.
That's what they say, but in reality, it's even more difficult for someone with a severed meridian to cultivate than for someone with Rong Xi's five-star spiritual root.
...
"It's done!"
As darkness approached, Rong Xi stopped her cultivation.
At this moment, the second step of the five-colored altar had become fully solidified. Naturally, Rong Xi had also consumed more than a thousand mid-grade spirit stones.
"I'm so hungry!"
Cultivation really does increase one's appetite.
Rong Xi stood up, called Xi Que in, and asked her to prepare the meal.
"My lord, dinner is ready!"
With Granny Rui and Granny Xiang present, they had already considered these matters before Rong Xi. After all, both of them were at the Golden Core stage, and they were fully aware of the challenges of Foundation Establishment cultivation.
"Then bring it up!"
Eat, eat, eat!
Rong Xi had only one thought in mind: to eat her fill.
Although she had taken the Spirit Valley Honey Pill before, its efficacy was clearly much weaker. Rong Xi now felt like she could eat a whole cow.
Dinner was served quickly, and it mainly consisted of meat.
There's no way around it; cultivators have a really high demand for vital energy and blood. If there were spiritual food available, they wouldn't need to eat too much, since Rong Xi is only at the Foundation Establishment stage. However, spiritual food is expensive and rare, and it's not something you can just buy with money.
"That's insane!"
It took a full half hour, which translates to an hour in later times.
Rong Xi felt that compared to her, the so-called big eaters of later generations were nothing.
She couldn't even remember how much she had eaten before the hunger pangs finally subsided.
This isn't a solution!
Rong Xi sat in the chair. The mixed blood and qi from eating ordinary meat was really not a good thing for cultivation.
"Granny Rui, go and call Sun Heming here. I have something to tell him!"
It's ridiculous that someone with such a blessed land would still be worried about food.
Rong Xi decided to become self-sufficient.
Well, other time-travel stories set in the Qing Dynasty start with palace intrigue, but we're not going to do those pointless things. We'll go farming.
Plant ten acres of spirit grain first. Raise all the spirit beasts you can find, as long as they have cubs. And cultivate a variety of spirit herbs as well.
Spiritual food!
If others couldn't handle it, Rong Xi was confident she could. After all, she was a favored daughter of heaven, blessed by the great god of transmigration (shamelessly indulging in self-admiration)!
Sun Heming was taken by Su Peisheng to learn the rules, and he was so engrossed in them that he began to question the meaning of life. And this was only half a day! Thinking about those complicated rules, Sun Heming felt that his life had completely lost its light.
Just as he was wondering if he should find a chance to run away, Granny Rui arrived!
"Granny, does the Princess really have something she needs me to do?"
Sun Heming thought to himself, "Heaven has finally opened its eyes!" So, should he run away, or should he run away?
"Come with me!"
Granny Rui led Sun Heming onto the flying carriage and headed straight for Rong Xi's courtyard.
"This humble servant greets Your Highness!"
Upon seeing Rong Xi, Sun Heming instinctively wanted to bow.
Yes, the half-day of discipline training had a remarkable effect, which left Sun Heming momentarily stunned.
"Alright, I won't talk about these things anymore!"
Rong Xi waved her hand, "I have a task for you. If you do it well, you will be richly rewarded!"
"Please give your orders, Madam!"
Sun Heming immediately thought of Rong Xi's lavish spending.
"Take it!"
Rong Xi waved her hand, and one hundred mid-grade spirit stones flew to Sun Heming's front.
"Take these mid-grade spirit stones. I believe you have your own ways of acquiring spirit rice seeds, various spirit herb seeds, and even spirit beast cubs for me!"
"Hmm, get me a lot more of those fake 'medicines' you made before!"
"Remember, spirit stones are not important; what's important is what this princess wants!"
"Please rest assured, Madam, I have connections with all these things. They will be ready for you in two days at most!"
Sun Heming was thrilled!
One hundred mid-grade spirit stones... well, if he's lucky, he'll definitely make a good profit from this mission. As for not pocketing it? He's not that noble!
"Go ahead and do a good job; you'll be well rewarded!"
Rong Xi said calmly, "After fulfilling my request for this mission, all these spirit stones, however many are left, are yours as a reward!"
"So, don't even think about lining your own pockets!"
Rong Xi wasn't an idiot; she could naturally see through Sun Heming's little scheme.
If you want the horse to run, you have to feed it.
One hundred mid-grade spirit stones seem like a lot. Yes, for most independent cultivators, it is indeed a lot. But for Rong Xi, it's not much, not even a little bit.
With spirit rice seeds, spirit beast cubs, and spirit herb seeds, she could mass-produce them using her blessed cave dwelling. At that time, a hundred mid-grade spirit stones would transform into a continuous stream of spirit stones flowing towards her.
"Granny Rui, Granny Xiang, you can also try to find a way!"
Noticing the excited looks on Granny Rui and Granny Xiang's faces, Rong Xi took out another two hundred mid-grade spirit stones. It was important to treat her subordinates equally when necessary.
Of course, this is just the beginning.
After all, over time, the differences in abilities among subordinates will become apparent. At that point, it's essential to promote the more capable individuals. Otherwise, it would be unfair.
"This humble servant takes his leave!"
Sun Heming was a shrewd man. Seeing Rong Xi's actions, he immediately understood that Rong Xi was creating a competitive atmosphere. Therefore, if he wanted to prove himself, he had to show his abilities.
Rong Xi waved her hand, instructing Granny Rui to see Sun Heming off.
As for whether Sun Heming would abscond with the 100 mid-grade spirit stones, Rong Xi believed that as long as Sun Heming wasn't stupid, he would never do such a foolish thing.
