章 12: Chapter 12: Diligent Cultivation!

Li Xuanji looked at the beauty in his arms, and thought of the prompt 'feelings secretly growing', he couldn't help but laugh out loud... Then he seemed to think of something, and quickly inspected his body, and sure enough, he saw a strand of blue immortal qi. Ling Xue'er's cultivation was at the fourth level of Qi Refining, and the 'immortal qi' rewarded for building a romantic bond with her was colorless, or white. After refining the immortal qi, the most he could get was 3 points of water spiritual root aptitude, and for his physique and comprehension, he only got one or two points. But now that he had formed a romantic bond with Zhao Yuehua, who was at the Foundation Establishment stage, the rewarded immortal qi was blue, and what would he get after refining it? He was full of expectations as he refined the blue 'immortal qi'. [Refining the blue immortal qi, you get fire spiritual root aptitude +8; wood spiritual root aptitude +8; alchemy comprehension +14...] [Romantic bond degree bonus: fire spiritual root aptitude +2; wood spiritual root aptitude +2; alchemy comprehension +4...] [Fire spiritual root aptitude: low-grade (83/1000)] [Wood spiritual root aptitude: low-grade (77/1000)] [Alchemy comprehension: first stage of the first level (272/1000)] Li Xuanji gasped, even though he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by the benefits brought by the blue 'immortal qi'. After refining it, the least he got for his spiritual root aptitude was 8 points, and if he counted the bonus from the romantic bond degree, it was as much as 10 points! Not to mention whether his body could handle the daily pursuit of romantic bonds, refining a strand of blue 'immortal qi' would add 10 points of spiritual root aptitude, three times a day would be 30 points, ten days would be 300 points... With some effort, he only needed to diligently pursue romantic bonds for a month, and he could raise his spiritual root aptitude to the middle-grade!! It took 1000 points to raise his aptitude from low-grade to middle-grade, and with his middle-grade comprehension aptitude, it should take 10000 points to raise it from middle-grade to high-grade... That was... a year's matter? What was more precious was that after refining the blue 'immortal qi', he also gained alchemy comprehension! The cultivators' storage bags could be without magic weapons, without talismans, but they would definitely have pills, so alchemy could even be called the first of the auxiliary skills! 18 points per time... 180 points per ten times... 1800 points per hundred times... 18000 points per thousand times... 100000 points per ten thousand times... He imagined himself pursuing romantic bonds every day, and his five-element pseudo-spiritual root becoming a five-element top-grade heavenly spiritual root, surrounded by beauties, and casually refining nine-turn immortal pills... Hehe...hehehehehe~~ Just as he smiled foolishly with his lips curled up, he suddenly felt a pain in his arm, and his laughter instantly turned into a scream... "Ouch...ouch, Sister Zhao, spare me!" "Laugh, you laugh again..." Zhao Yuehua bit his arm hard, her delicate and lovely face had a bit of shyness and annoyance, and a bit of lingering blush... When she heard his plea, she let go of him with satisfaction. Then she seemed to think of something, and snorted, questioning him: "The more I think about it, the more I feel something is wrong, tell me honestly, did you deliberately set me up?" "Set you up? How could I~~" Li Xuanji hurriedly hugged her in his arms, and pecked her lips, then said solemnly: "I did it on purpose, but that was also because of my deep feelings, I had no intention of setting you up." "Really?" "Really..." He nodded, then sighed and said: "Sister Zhao, I always regarded you as a relative, and when I suddenly heard about your affairs, I was both angry and annoyed." Zhao Yuehua snuggled into his arms and asked cautiously: "What were you angry and annoyed about?" "I was angry that you treated me as an outsider, if I didn't ask, you wouldn't have any intention of telling me." "And what about annoyed?" Li Xuanji smiled bitterly and said: "I was annoyed that my cultivation was too low, and I couldn't help you with anything, that feeling of powerlessness deeply hurt me." "..." Zhao Yuehua reached out and touched his cheek, and whispered: "I didn't mean to hide it from you." "I know." Li Xuanji nodded slightly, he wanted to seize every opportunity to cultivate, but considering the warning of Ling Xue'er's low romantic bond degree, he immediately calmed down... Romantic bond degree was not easy to cultivate, not to mention the bonus. And Sister Zhao had been wearing a 'mask' for many years, and now that she took off the 'mask', she was also addicted, and didn't know what restraint was. The pair of infatuated men and women were like dry wood and raging fire, they ignited at one point, so they tacitly lingered in the bedroom for several days... So much so that when Ji someone came out of the door leaning on the wall, his figure was a bit thinner... In the following days. The two of them were like loving dao companions, always together, holding hands in the quiet room during the day to refine the parts of the puppet technique, and at night they pursued romantic bonds and cultivated. Li Xuanji never mentioned the Devouring Yuan Curse again, because he knew very well that this matter was already settled, and with his second level of Qi Refining cultivation, he had no qualification to interfere in this matter. And Zhao Yuehua also knew very well that telling him this matter would only make him worry, and there was no benefit. So the two of them didn't break this bubble, and acted as if they had forgotten this matter, and they never even mentioned it... They traveled and played, day by day... Li Xuanji's cultivation aptitude was still among the lowest, but he also had visible progress, and the one that improved the most was his 'alchemy comprehension', which had already broken through to the high stage of the first level. In his spare time, he would also ask Sister Zhao to teach him alchemy, using the excuse of 'the more skills, the better'. And Zhao Yuehua didn't hide anything, although she had sold her pill furnace, and couldn't demonstrate it personally, but her second-level alchemist's accumulated insights and fire control skills were not sold. She was a Foundation Establishment cultivator herself, and had a broad vision and experience, and was also a disciple of a major sect, and had learned other seniors' alchemy skills in the sect, so the alchemy insights she taught were invaluable!! During the day, they were 'teacher' and 'student', at night they were dao companions, and in their spare time they played the roles of 'teacher' and 'student' and adjusted each other... Li Xuanji was like a dry sponge, frantically absorbing the 'nutrition' to fill his own gaps. He himself would gain a lot of alchemy comprehension by refining the blue 'immortal qi', and he also got Sister Zhao's careful guidance, with both sides adding up, his alchemy skills naturally improved rapidly!
