"This isn't just a little more resource than a typical top-grade spiritual root; it's a hundred million times more!"
Rong Zi sat by the spiritual spring, soaking wet, his face expressionless and unreadable.
Natural springs and other rare and precious materials are renewable resources in the cultivation world.
Given the level of this spiritual spring, it is perfectly capable of continuously providing spiritual energy for an ordinary cultivator to cultivate.
Because the spiritual energy regeneration rate of a spiritual spring is generally greater than the absorption rate of an ordinary cultivator.
But now...
Rong Zi drained the spiritual spring in just half an hour.
According to the little turtle, it would take at least three years for the spiritual spring in front of them to regain its previous level of spiritual energy concentration.
Rong Zi covered her face helplessly.
This chaotic spiritual root is a bottomless pit!
The little turtle climbed onto Rong Zi's head and grabbed her hair to comfort her.
“Master, although you absorbed the spiritual energy of the entire spring in one go, you have not only solidified your foundation, but your cultivation, which has not improved for ten years, has finally shown some signs of improvement. I believe that with a little more effort, you will soon be able to break through to the second level of the Qi Refining stage.”
Rong Zi gave a forced smile and said, "Thank you."
He absorbed the spiritual energy of the entire spring, yet he still couldn't break through to the second level of Qi Refining.
She's truly a talented person...
...
That evening, because the pig's rear end that was almost in her mouth ran away, Rong Zi could only eat the small fish that the little turtle caught for her in the stream.
After waiting for tens of thousands of years, the little turtle finally found its owner and was extremely enthusiastic.
He even personally breathed fire to help Rong Zi grill fish.
They even thoughtfully added some minced garlic, which they didn't know where they got it from.
Then, with his mouth watering, he told her that garlic-flavored small fish tastes even better.
It was at this moment that Rong Zi learned that the little turtle she had contracted was actually an extremely rare spirit beast in the cultivation world.
Its name is Xuanhuo Turtle.
However, Rong Zi was in no mood to care about these things at the moment.
Looking at the garlic-flavored small fish in front of her, the image that came to her mind was the puddle of stuff that the little turtle had vomited not long ago.
Rong Zi: "Ugh..."
She swore.
She will never eat garlic-flavored small fish again in her life!
Rong Zi was still feeling nauseous the next day.
Her wish to find a sect to live in has been completely dashed. If she wants to survive in the cultivation world in the future, she will have to support herself.
The first problem to be solved is the issue of food and clothing.
The first step to solving the problem of food and clothing is to make money.
Rong Zi remembered that in the cultivation world, pills and talismans could be used to earn spirit stones.
As for alchemy, she had no spiritual herbs, let alone an alchemy furnace.
As for drawing talismans, she had neither talisman paper, spirit ink, nor talisman brush.
After careful consideration, Rong Zi still felt that the cost of drawing talismans was relatively low.
So, before going to bed that night, she took out a few books on talismans from her Primordial Ring and read them.
Let's start with the basics.
For Rong Zi, a genius professor who had earned his doctorate before the age of twenty, learning was as easy as eating and drinking.
In just one night, she thoroughly studied several books on talismans, progressing from the basics to the advanced levels.
The next morning.
Rong Zi planned to first go to a market to see if he could find a way to get a set of tools needed for drawing talismans.
A novice in the Qi Refining stage cannot control a sword.
Rong Zi could only walk there step by step.
On the way, Rong Zi dangled her thin legs and glanced at the turtle lazily perched on her shoulder.
"Cai Niu, besides breathing fire, do you have any other special abilities? Like being able to fly or something?"
The little turtle said it didn't have a name, but Rong Zi saw how bright its colors were and gave it a nice name.
Her name is Cai Niu.
Cai Niu thought for a moment, "Does being exceptionally resilient count?"
Rong Zi: "..."
Shuangyuan City is located in the heart of the five major regions, boasting an excellent geographical location comparable to the capital city of a modern country.
Not only is it crowded with people, but prices are also outrageously high.
Rong Zi, clutching her rumbling stomach and resisting the temptations of delicious food along the way, went straight to inquire about the price of a set of ordinary talisman paper and talisman pen, as well as how many spirit stones various talismans could sell for.
“Master, don’t forget, you also have the responsibility to take on disciples. Violating the contract will result in being wiped out by the Heavenly Dao,” Cai Niu reminded her, leaning close to her collar.
Rong Zi couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Our sect is so poor right now that we don't even have a mountain gate. Besides, given my current age and cultivation level, do you think any idiot would want to become my disciple?"
The seal of the contract in her mind's eye was revealed.
She not only had to inherit the position of sect leader of Rongling Sect, but also had to recruit seven personal disciples according to the jade's guidance.
As for the jade, Rong Zi had already looked at it last night, and it was all casually placed together with the pile of books in the Hongmeng Ring.
They look like just seven ordinary little stones.
There was no fluctuation of spiritual energy.
However, each piece of jade has a different color.
According to Cai Niu, the founder of their Rongling Sect only accepted seven direct disciples.
These seven jade stones were personally crafted by the founding patriarch for his disciples.
Once Rong Zi finds a suitable disciple, the jade will begin to react and choose its own master.
All she needed to do was figure out a way to get that person to willingly become her disciple.
Cai Niu tilted her head back and chuckled, "That depends on how good you are at persuading people, Master."
Rong Zi: "..."
She made it sound like she was running a pyramid scheme.
Rong Zi looked at the fresh meat pies on the roadside stall and couldn't help but swallow hard. He casually said, "Even if I had that ability, where would I find someone? Do you think my future apprentice, who meets the requirements, would fall from the sky and land at my feet?"
She had barely finished speaking.
"We've already given you the things. If you dare to cause trouble again, we won't be so polite!"
Accompanied by an impatient shout, a small humanoid object suddenly slammed heavily in front of Rong Zi.
Rong Zi was startled.
Upon closer inspection, she discovered that the person curled up in front of her, with tears streaming down their face, was actually a little boy who looked only five or six years old.
The little boy was clutching a pale yellow purse tightly in his arms, and his soft, cute face was stained with dirt.
The moment the little boy appeared, the black jade stone in the Hongmeng Ring began to stir without warning, and a faint light flickered around the jade stone.
Cai Niu grabbed Rong Zi's hair with her front paws and excitedly shouted, "Master, Master, your first qualified disciple has appeared! Master, you are so amazing! He really fell from the sky and landed at your feet!"
Rong Zi frowned at Cai Niu's noise and shoved her turtle head back into its shell.
Meanwhile, the little boy on the ground had already shakily gotten up on his own.
