With a slight tremor, a surge of pure spiritual energy arose, even influencing the mist of the Concentration Incense.
Even though her spiritual energy wasn't full, she felt stronger than when she was at full strength, without the slightest weakness.
"A cultivation technique that costs a hundred spirit stones... How difficult!" She activated the dust-removing function on her robe to wipe away the sweat from her body due to nervousness.
The next step is to restore spiritual power to the level required for the sixth level of Qi Refining, and then cultivate the "Clear Breeze and Water Observation" technique for detection.
"Let's take a break." Shenxian'er finally felt at ease picking up the storybook and rewarding herself!
On the other side.
Little Moon Cave.
"boom!"
A trickle of blood escaped from the corner of Jiang Xiaoyue's mouth.
This injury was caused by the pressure of the furnace exploding.
She remained unfazed, as if it were commonplace, and lifted the lid of the alchemy furnace, pouring out the dark, murky dregs of medicine.
"Baa~~" The spirit sheep smiled from the side.
"There's nothing to eat today." Jiang Xiaoyue wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
The spirit sheep was furious and directly confronted it.
"Are you crazy?!" Jiang Xiaoyue lifted her butt and ran away. The spirit horn of a third-level Qi Refining cultivator was no joke.
A capable person pierced through the top.
After escaping the cave, she was depressed. Seven days had passed, and she had burned eleven batches of food, but she still hadn't mastered the basics.
"What's wrong?"
She looked up and saw the fairy walking towards her from the stone tablet.
Jiang Xiaoyue shook her head: "It's nothing, just came out for some fresh air. How's your cultivation going? How do you feel about your 182 meridians?" As she spoke, she laughed.
Shenxian'er shook her head and sighed: "By the way, Xiaoyue, could you lend me a bottle of Qi-Nourishing Pills? I'll return them to you after the next fishing trip."
“Okay.” Jiang Xiaoyue took out a Qi-Nourishing Pill from her storage bag. “I haven’t been cultivating much lately, and I happen to have some left over…”
Suddenly, she stopped handing over the medicine bottle.
“Xian’er,” she stared at Shen Xian’er’s face, “your smile is so lewd, just like Ni Zi’s.”
"What do you mean by smiling in a lewd way like me?!" The fairy in front of me transformed into Xu Ni in a ripple of water.
Jiang Xiaoyue put away the Qi-Nourishing Pill while curiously observing her.
"Have you mastered 'Water Moon Mirror Flower'?"
"After seven days of arduous seclusion and cultivation, I, Xu Ni, have finally entered the first level today. With a little more effort, I've directly achieved minor success." Xu Ni said with an air of pride.
She couldn't maintain her profound expression for even a second before eagerly saying:
"Points are truly amazing! My current mastery of 'Water Moon Mirror Flower' has reached the highest level recorded on the jade slip, and no one can see through my disguise!"
"As long as you don't laugh." Jiang Xiaoyue brought up the old topic again.
"That's because I wasn't taking it seriously," Xu Ni said irritably.
That's the truth.
Even if she were to take it seriously, given Jiang Xiaoyue's familiarity with Xu Ni and Shen Xian'er, coupled with her knowledge of "Water Moon Mirror Flower," she could easily see through who was in front of her.
In this way, Xu Ni might be able to fool passersby, but it's probably not realistic to say she's actually going undercover.
A person is not only composed of appearance, but also temperament, experience, behavior, and so on, including how others perceive them.
If it doesn't conform, it will arouse suspicion.
Jiang Xiaoyue then thought of her alchemy.
"Nizi, do I really have no talent?" she asked hesitantly.
Xu Ni said, "Which alchemist doesn't take months to learn the basics, years to become proficient, and decades to reach perfection? You've only burned a few batches already!"
"The problem is that I've fried eleven batches and haven't gained any insights whatsoever."
"I don't know anything about alchemy either, so I don't know if you have any talent for this. Even if you don't have any talent, it's okay. You only need half a year to get started, and once you add up your points, you'll be a minor master. What's there to be afraid of?"
Jiang Xiaoyue nodded slowly.
"Would you like me to teach you my secret cultivation method?" Xu Ni suddenly asked.
"Secret cultivation method?"
Xu Ni glanced around, then whispered in Jiang Xiaoyue's ear:
“You’re just too hot-tempered and can’t calm down. I’ll teach you a trick—take out the photo stone, lie flat, and keep it moist... use your fingertips... or gently pat... or rub... like this... like this.”
"Go away!" Jiang Xiaoyue pushed her away, her face burning hot.
Xu Ni said calmly, "Trust me."
She turned and went back to the nun's cave: "Hurry up and enter the gate. I hope to sell the Qi Gathering Pills you refine on the next trade trip."
Jiang Xiaoyue found the words "Nun's Cave" particularly ironic.
Xu Ni needs to apologize to all nuns in the world!
After clearing her head for a while, she returned to Little Moon Cave, where the spirit sheep immediately confronted her!
She dodged aside, her hands forming a magic seal.
call!
A tiny spark ignited, quickly expanding into a red fireball the size of a bird's egg.
Extreme heat swept through the cave, distorting the air.
The ram used its four legs to stop its charge, and its wool began to curl, about to be ignited.
Jiang Xiaoyue sneered: "Come here again?"
"Mwah~~" The spirit sheep's eyes were brimming with tears, giving off a pitiful look as if it thought, "You've bullied me."
Jiang Xiaoyue launched a fireball, and the stone wall instantly turned into lava.
She opened another cave and drove the spirit sheep inside.
The spirit sheep has already developed sentience and will not interfere with her cultivation. It can even protect her. She didn't live separately from it before, but after what happened today, she has decided... to separate!
The fireball quickly carved out a cave.
Before her parents' accident, they decided to train Jiang Xiaoyue to become an alchemist—otherwise, she wouldn't have dared to dream of making pills by farming, so her fireball technique was quite good.
The data panel displays (Beginner: 81/100).
Points directly increase the level. That is to say, if she improves Fireball now, she can only increase it by 19 points, reaching (Minor Success: 1/100).
