After two years of traveling and enduring hardships, has the golden finger finally appeared?
There was a sound of rain outside the window. In the simple but warm little house, Qin Gengyun was excited but also nervous.
He wiped his eyes and looked carefully. The silver-white words were still floating in front of his eyes.
I'm not dreaming!
Although Fellow Daoist Qiu and I have not been able to work out a way to practice dual cultivation, now that I have the golden finger, I see hope of improving my cultivation and becoming an alchemist.
As long as you practice diligently in the future, why would you be afraid of running out of time?
Qin Gengyun suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, forced himself to calm down, and studied the illusory text in front of him.
[Couple Intimacy] is only 5, which is not surprising. After all, he and Qiu Zhihe met for the first time today and had no time to cultivate feelings.
Looking at the [Training Points] again, according to the prompts in the illusory text, you should be able to get training points every time after working with your wife, and then you can add the training points to your cultivation or skills.
How many practice points you can get each time should be related to the [Intimacy between Couples].
If I could slowly develop feelings with Qiu Zhihe in the future, I should be able to gain more practice points.
But how do I add some?
Just as I was thinking about it, a few lines of illusory text appeared in front of me.
【Name: Qin Gengyun】
【Lifespan: 35/40】
[Cultivation: Qi training level 2, 92/100]
[Skills: Alchemist Apprentice, 93/100]
[Spiritual roots: Fire-type lower-grade spiritual roots (11/100), Ice-type lower-grade spiritual roots (15/100)]
Qin Gengyun was overjoyed. After checking carefully, he tried to add 1 practice point to his realm in his mind, and then a prompt "Confirm to add points" appeared.
He chose "No" and tried to add practice points to his ice spiritual roots again, but this time there was no response.
It seems that it is indeed as mentioned in the previous prompt, that training points can only be added to [Cultivation] and [Skills].
As for how to improve these two mediocre and low-grade spiritual roots, he had no idea.
Qin Gengyun didn't hesitate any longer and added both cultivation points to his cultivation.
The level of cultivation determines the strength of spiritual awareness, and spiritual awareness determines the strength of the alchemist.
Alchemists attach great importance to spiritual awareness. When refining the elixir, they will probe their spiritual awareness into the alchemy furnace. The alchemist can then see the progress of the refining of the elixir in the furnace.
Then he used his spiritual sense to detect and classify the components of the liquid medicine made from the melted medicinal materials, and discharged the impurities and poison into an isolation room on one side of the furnace, leaving only the essence of the medicinal materials in the main furnace.
This step is called refining, which is the most important step in alchemy and requires extremely high spiritual awareness from the alchemist.
To reach the level of being able to extract medicinal liquid, one must at least practice Qi to the third level.
Qin Gengyun’s top priority is to improve his cultivation to the third level of Qi training as soon as possible, so he needs to be more diligent in the future.
Qin Gengyun gently turned over and saw Qiu Zhihe still with her back to him, as if she had fallen asleep.
She had just escaped from the devil's lair and had just become a wife, so she must be extremely tired.
If we force her now, the "intimacy between the couple" will probably decrease.
Moreover, looking at Qiu Zhihe's disheartened look, she must have suffered a tragedy in the devil's cave, and perhaps her parents and relatives also died in the devil's cave. Forcing her to do that kind of thing is really too much.
The road ahead is long and arduous; if you act too hastily, you will only get half the result with twice the effort.
Qin Gengyun closed his eyes and prepared to rest.
Suddenly, there was a sound beside him. Qin Gengyun opened his eyes and saw a pair of beautiful almond-shaped eyes staring at him coldly in the darkness.
"Fellow Daoist Qiu, you...ah?!"
…
After thirty breaths.
Qiu Zhihe turned his back and returned to his indifference.
Qin Gengyun breathed slightly, feeling ashamed and angry.
[Intimacy between husband and wife: 5/100. Intimacy is too low, no bonus. ]
[Obtain training points: 2]
Qin Gengyun suppressed his anger and said silently: "Add some more!"
Two cultivation points were once again added to "cultivation".
At this time, the values in Qin Gengyun's attribute panel changed again:
[Cultivation: Qi training level 2, 96/100]
Qin Gengyun's breath gradually calmed down. He turned his head to look at Qiu Zhihe who was facing away from him, and couldn't help asking:
"Fellow Daoist Qiu, why did I feel a bone-chilling cold when you and I were just...?"
Qiu Zhihe's pretty and delicate figure moved slightly, and her voice was cold:
"I was born with an ice spirit body."
"Ice Spirit Body?" Qin Gengyun frowned slightly and asked:
"Then why do I feel a burning heat after the icy cold?"
Qiu Zhihe had her back to him and spoke in a vague voice:
"I was tortured in the Qinglian Sect, and the fire poison entered my body, so my body was filled with ice and fire."
"Oh, no wonder!" Qin Gengyun let out a long sigh and felt greatly relieved.
It’s not my problem after all!
Then he said softly, "Fellow Daoist Qiu, don't worry. Since you and I are already husband and wife, I will definitely treat you well in the future. You are tired today, so go and rest early."
Qiu Zhihe suddenly turned around, and there seemed to be a slight ripple of love in her eyes that were like a pool of stagnant water.
"Fellow Daoist Qiu, you...ah?!"
…
After thirty breaths.
Qiu Zhihe turned his back and stopped moving.
Qin Gengyun was panting and his eyes were blank.
[Intimacy between husband and wife: 5/100. Intimacy is too low, no bonus]
[Obtain training points: 2]
Qin Gengyun was in mixed feelings, not knowing whether he should be happy or depressed.
By the way, Qin Gengyun turned his head and looked at the delicate and beautiful back.
Just now, she seemed to be crying?
At this time, Qiu Zhihe, with her back to Qin Gengyun, had red eyes and a sad expression.
Feeling the miraculous rise of moisture in her spiritual field where all her cultivation had been wasted, a hint of joy appeared on her pale face.
It was then replaced by contempt and disdain, and this contempt and disdain was not directed at others, but at herself.
She closed her eyes and two lines of tears rolled down.
"Master's words before his death were correct. It turns out that Xuanbing Lihuo Gong can really be used as a dual cultivation method."
"Xia Qinglian, today your body has been tainted, so put aside all your pride, practice diligently with this man, and recover your cultivation as soon as possible to avenge your master and fellow disciples!"
"No, Xia Qinglian, the Saintess of Qinglian Sect, is already dead. From today on, you are Qiu Zhihe, a shameless and lowly female cultivator who only cares about dual cultivation!"
only……
Qiu Zhihe turned slightly and glanced at Qin Gengyun behind her.
"The method of dual cultivation requires the synchronicity of body and mind between the Taoist partners in order to achieve the greatest improvement. Qin Gengyun is too weak. We must think of a way."
