Chapter 024 What is it like to practice
Lu Xun felt a little regretful that the Second Senior Sister didn't look like a cute girl.
On the contrary, this cold look gives people a feeling of a royal sister, but it seems a little inconsistent with the cute name Gu Xiaoman.
This senior sister might become a powerful figure in the later stage who can kill all the players and make them kneel down and cry for mercy.
Lu Xun took another look at the "Art of Eating Air" in his hand and was moved in his heart. After all, this greeting gift was indeed very suitable for people who had just entered the world of cultivation, but for him... it was really of little use.
He only needs to accumulate experience points and then upgrade along the way. This book "The Art of Eating Qi" which is full of annotations is more suitable for Ji Li.
But this was Second Senior Sister’s good intention after all, and Lu Xun didn’t have the nerve to ask her to change the gift… although he really wanted to.
——But he has the nerve to ask Maonanbei for it.
Second Senior Sister has given it to you, and you are also a senior sister, so shouldn’t you show some appreciation as well?
Mao Nanbei felt his hair stand on end when he was stared at. Finally, he gritted his teeth and threw him a storage ring.
"[Obtain a storage ring (yellow), do you want to wear it? After wearing it, the backpack space will be increased by 30.]"
This thing is really useful to Lu Xun, and it can save him from some trouble in daily life.
"Well, it's not that I'm stingy, senior sister, it's that your cultivation is still too low . Magical weapons are more suitable for you. Using spiritual weapons will be too much of a burden. Just use it this way for now." Mao Nanbei said.
What she said was indeed true. There is no level limit for the equipment in "Tianchen", but if the level is not high enough, it will not be able to exert its power even if you wear it, and it will be useless.
Ji Li stood aside and watched. It would be a lie to say that she was not envious, but she was mostly happy for Lu Xun.
Before, she was worried that Lu Xun’s aptitude was too poor and he would be bullied after coming to the Demon Sect. Now it seems that there is no need to worry about this at all.
The Second Senior Sister didn't seem to want to chat, so she waved her hand, signaling everyone to leave.
On the way back, Lu Xun was still thinking in his heart: "Second Senior Sister doesn't seem to like to talk much."
To be exact, he didn't say a single word, which was really strange.
Could it be a little mute?
However, he was still very happy to receive two gifts tonight, and a smile appeared on his face.
Lu Xun turned his head to look at Ji Li, and in the dim light of the fireflies, he found that she was smiling even happier than he was.
Seeing her silly look, Lu Xun flicked her head with his finger for no reason.
"Why are you hitting me?" Ji Li covered her forehead with her hands, her eyes wide open.
"Junior uncle-master, just play whenever you want. Why do you have so many questions?" Lu Xun said.
He would never say that you are a soft persimmon that feels good to the touch, and he is a bit addicted to pinching you and can't help but want to pinch you a few more times.
As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit on the forehead by Mao Nanbei.
"Then it's okay for senior sister to play with you, right?" Mao Nanbei smiled and helped Ji Li out, with an expression that said "I'm the big sister" on his face.
Lu Xun was speechless, imagining in his mind that his cultivation would greatly improve one day. He pressed Mao Nanbei on his knees, rubbed her head and cat ears with his left hand, and spanked her little butt hard with his right hand!
But I have to say that with this little episode, everyone became full of laughter on the way back.
The quiet back mountain suddenly became more lively, and even the fireflies flying around seemed to be flying more vigorously.
…
…
It was only after walking to the small study that Ji Li was stunned for a moment.
She only then realized: "Why should I follow back?"
Her mission was to take care of Lu Xun, and now that Lu Xun had woken up, her mission was completed.
The small study is where the master and several uncles live. Could it be that they also give her a guest room?
She did still have a little bit of evil intention towards Lu Xun, but she really didn't have the guts to do it. If she was asked to stay in Lu Xun's house for another night, she would be willing, but it depended on whether Lu Xun invited her.
Lu Xun glanced at her and couldn't help but smile. He was too lazy to tease her anymore and asked Mao Nanbei, "Fourth Senior Sister, can I borrow this copy of "Eating Qi Jue" that Second Senior Sister gave me to Ji Li to study?"
Mao Nanbei waved his hand indifferently and said, "Second Senior Sister gave it to you, so it's yours. You can arrange it yourself."
After saying that, she went into the house first. No one knew whether she was going to sleep in or to practice.
On the contrary, Ji Li was slightly stunned after hearing this.
If a normal person gets such a treasure, even if he is willing to lend it to others, shouldn't he learn it first? But Lu Xun thought of her first, which made her feel warm in her heart.
She naturally didn't know that this booklet was a bit useless to Lu Xun. If it wasn't a gift from the second senior sister, he might have taken it to the outer sect to auction it off...
But he had to pretend, otherwise he hadn't even read "The Art of Eating Qi" and couldn't explain how he learned it. So he had to bite the bullet and read it.
"Come in." Lu Xun said to Ji Li as he entered the room.
Ji Li followed in foolishly.
It was late at night and Ji Li couldn't fly yet, so it would be too much trouble for her to walk the mountain road again.
After entering the house, Lu Xun asked her to practice on her own first, while he pretended to read "The Art of Eating Qi".
To be honest, he was just playing games before, but now he has really traveled through time, and he is still curious about the cultivation methods.
Normally, the technique would seem obscure and difficult to understand at first glance, but he read it very smoothly, as if he had already memorized it by heart.
I have to say, apart from being a little thin, Second Sister’s handwriting is really beautiful.
After reading it all, he handed the booklet to Ji Li.
"Don't you want to read it a few more times? There's no need to rush to give it to me." Ji Li quickly refused.
In her opinion, Lu Xun’s aptitude was not good, and this booklet was a treasure to him, and he should take it out and refer to it from time to time.
"No need for that." After Lu Xun finished speaking, he did not forget to say: "You are so stupid, but I am different. I have a photographic memory."
Ji Li didn't believe it, so Lu Xun said, "Then just ask whatever you want to see if I really remember it."
As a result, she asked several questions and Lu Xun answered them all correctly.
Of course, she didn't know that the game system had already recorded all the contents of "The Art of Eating Qi" in the [Skills List], including the annotations of the second senior sister. She only needed to click on [Details] to see all the contents.
"Wow... so awesome!" Ji Li said in her heart.
Then, Lu Xun watched as a series of numbers appeared around Ji Li: [Favorability +1...+1...+1...]
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "This silly girl's favorability is too easy to capture."
There's nothing you can do about it. Handsome guys tend to be more dazzling when they act cool.
Now, he can upgrade legitimately. Just click [Upgrade] and he can reach the first level of the Eating Qi Jue.
But before that, he wanted to try what it felt like to practice on his own.
When I read online novels in the past, after the male protagonists officially embarked on the practice, they all cleansed their bones and marrow, and all the dirt on their bodies was eliminated. Then they became taller, more handsome, stronger, and smarter. Even the process of practice was described as being very exciting. After the practice was over, they would often feel relaxed all over and exhale a breath of foul air.
Looks like a pretty good guy.
So... let's have one?
