Chapter 103 Everything Goes Smoothly, Surprises Abound
Chapter 103 Everything Goes Smoothly, Surprises Abound
"Ah, ah, ah, this..."
Wenwen was so excited that she was talking incoherently, which made Aying on the table suddenly stumble and almost fall over.
Fortunately, the oriole spread its wings in time and hopped a couple of steps to steady itself.
"Master, being neither elated by external gains nor saddened by personal losses is the proper state of mind for a cultivator."
Not satisfied, Aying tilted her head and added, "You're so unsteady and impulsive, it's not a good thing."
Uh!
Wenwen: "......"
She was being subtly criticized; don't assume she doesn't understand.
"Are you crazy or am I crazy to expect a ten-year-old to be mature?"
"Ugh!"
Ah Ying, being magnanimous, sighed and changed the subject.
"Master, what did you see? Why are you so excited?"
Wenwen calmed herself down, pulled the book over, and pointed to a line of small print at the bottom of the page, "Here, take a look for yourself."
[Note: Different reactions to taking the Mingling Fruit are detailed in the appendix of this book.]
This is exactly what she wanted to happen; how could she not be so excited that she was speechless!
"Spirit Fruit? Do you have any?"
"Remove the 'ma' part. I have one, and more than one."
Aying raised her eyebrows, ignored her, and began reading from the top of the book.
Of course, who could see a bird raising an eyebrow? Wenwen went over to look together.
The large title at the top center of the page—【Qi-Inducing Pill】
Below the main title is a dense text of small print.
First, the types and quantities of the main and auxiliary medicines are listed, followed by the methods for processing the medicinal materials, and finally the methods for making the elixir.
The processing methods for the medicinal herbs are detailed, down to the amount of spiritual energy required for each herb. There are even detailed examples of processing techniques for herbs based on the year they were harvested and the corresponding amount of spiritual energy.
Such detailed records are so enticing, making one eager to try them out.
The temptations don't stop there.
The methods for making elixirs are even more detailed.
It's like breaking it down into its entirety, from the infusion of spiritual energy to the completion of the elixir. Every crucial step and every detail is meticulously listed. Finally, various data comparisons, rigorous yet astonishing proportions, and a wealth of medicinal material and experimental data are included.
Upon seeing this, Wenwen's enthusiasm soared to unprecedented heights; her heart was burning, almost bursting into flames.
She knew that in the cultivation world, a skilled alchemist could be very wealthy, and that alone made her yearn for it.
Continuing on, smaller font indicates that pills refined at the fourth level of Qi Refining or above have better effects.
Wenwen: "My...fuck..."
It is highly aggressive and even more insulting.
Her anger was extinguished instantly, as if she had been struck by a thunderbolt. She blinked, cleared her mind, and calmly looked down.
The last sentence of the booklet reads, "Note: For details on the different reactions to taking the Mingling Fruit, please refer to the appendix of this book."
"Oh dear, this is the key point; none of the others apply to you."
Ah Ying flapped her wings, her slender legs tracing a tango step, her expression both comical and sarcastic.
Wenwen wouldn't agree so easily.
Sometimes, we cannot always believe everything we say. When it comes to anything, combining theory with practice makes it more convincing.
"That's definitely the key point. Who says the above isn't suitable for me? I can learn it once I reach the fourth level of cultivation, right?"
"That's true, but you think you can just say four floors and expect it to happen? Is it that easy?"
Wenwen: "......"
Ah Ying's words make a lot of sense!
She had no way to refute it. Reaching the fourth floor was no easy feat. She hadn't even stepped onto the first floor yet; the fourth floor was simply beyond her reach!
Wenwen shook off her distracting thoughts, turned to the appendix, and began to read it carefully.
The more you look at it, the more addictive it becomes. This collection contains over 500 records of reactions after directly consuming the Mingling Fruit, and it also provides a summary at the end, combining several broad categories and classifying them into four main categories: the elderly, the middle-aged, the young, and the children.
Just as Xianbao said before, children under 8 years old who eat it will experience a state of suspended animation, and after 3 days their bodies will expel impurities, which will help them absorb spiritual energy.
As for the elderly, middle-aged, and young people, consuming this will cause pain throughout their bodies. The intensity of the pain will vary depending on individual physical differences. Overcoming this pain will enhance their perception of spiritual energy, which is beneficial for cultivation.
The most crucial record was a treasure to Wenwen: "For those poisoned, taking the Mingling Fruit directly can accelerate the elimination of toxins from the body. The quantity of fruit used is unknown."
"La la la, la la la, it came so easily, I...I love Thor."
"Huh, so fickle. Who was just spewing profanities a moment ago?"
"No one will think you're mute if you don't speak. It seems you've grown quite a few feathers."
Wenwen was a little embarrassed and angry, and she grabbed Aying's wing and threatened her.
“Master, people should be ambitious and know their weaknesses. They should make up for what they lack as soon as possible. Learning is like rowing against the current. If you don’t move forward, you fall behind.”
Wenwen was speechless for a moment, then glanced at Aying.
As the saying goes, if you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer.
It is said that older people love to lecture, and this bird, whose age is unknown, gives a lecture every now and then, which is extremely annoying.
"understood."
Wenwen quickly flipped through the book, gaining a general understanding of it. She put the book down and gazed thoughtfully at the doorway of the inner room.
If the books in the outer room can be read freely, there's no reason why the ones in the inner room can't be as good.
Thinking of this, she turned around and went straight to the door.
"crunch..."
"Wow, that's great!"
The door opened completely, which was both expected and unexpected.
Everything went smoothly tonight, which is inseparable from my successful Qi cultivation.
Wenwen entered the inner room.
The interior space is not large; you can see the whole room at a glance.
On the left wall are several rows of bookshelves filled with books, and on the right are several large boxes.
What's frightening is that there's a staircase diagonally opposite the entrance.
stairs?!
Wenwen recalled that the small courtyard she saw from the outside only had two ordinary rooms. There was no second floor at all. Could she be seeing things?
She rubbed her eyes, then opened them wide again; the stairs were right in front of her.
She refused to believe it and moved step by step to the stairs, reaching out to touch them. The feel of the wood told her that it was a wooden staircase, and it felt quite nice.
Looking up, there were a dozen or so steps, followed by a platform, and after the turn, there were probably another dozen or so steps.
Wenwen kept wondering in her mind, would there be a third floor after the second floor? Since it was so illogical, she could be even bolder in her guessing, since guessing wouldn't hurt her.
As she guessed, she walked upwards. Just as she was about to step onto the platform, she placed her left foot firmly and lifted her right foot.
Suddenly, Wenwen felt herself bump into a wall, and a pain shot through her head.
"Oh, good..."
Before she could even utter the word "pain," the rebounding force from the wall instantly pushed Wenwen down.
"Splash, splash, bang..."
