Little Junior Sister, We Can’t Handle This Grind Anymore - Chapter 87
Feng Qingran felt that she must have lost too much blood and started hallucinating.
She picked up the Fasting Pill again.
A layer of patterns on the pill’s surface caught her attention.
Holding the pill, Feng Qingran wondered, “The patterns on a supreme-grade pill are purple, so why are there golden patterns on this one?”
Since ancient times, purple had been the color of nobility, and top-quality pills usually had purple patterns.
A thoughtful look flashed in Feng Qingran’s eyes, and her almond-shaped eyes widened. “Gold? Golden patterns? Could all of these be supreme-grade pills?!”
Feng Qingran narrowed her eyes. Supreme-grade pills contained no pill toxins and were beloved by all cultivators.
Unfortunately, the purification techniques for supreme-grade pills had long been lost.
Yet, Mo Jinghong actually possessed the method to refine supreme-grade pills!
If this were to spread, it might not bode well for Lingyun Sect…
But with so many supreme-grade pills, her Seventh Senior Brother was truly generous to her!
Feng Qingran swallowed the Fasting Pill, sat up, and quietly sensed the energy flowing within the formation.
There was indeed no spiritual energy within the Ten Realms Domain.
But the power of the fierce beasts hadn’t weakened in the slightest, proving that there must be another way to enhance one’s strength.
Cultivating spiritual energy was the method for those with spiritual roots.
But magical beasts and monstrous beasts usually cultivated Qi.
This Qi was hidden between heaven and earth, omnipresent.
However, the method of extracting Qi was a hundred times more difficult than extracting spiritual energy.
Once Qi entered the body, it was extremely prone to dissipation and hard to store.
To seal Qi, one had to transform it into True Essence after it entered the body. The True Essence would then enter the Sea of Consciousness, expanding it.
Expanding the Sea of Consciousness meant strengthening one’s divine sense.
The stronger the divine sense, the more powerful the Domain one could create in the future.
Feng Qingran calmed her mind and focused, attempting to sense the flow of Qi around her.
Seventh Senior Brother had said that no matter how long she stayed inside, time outside wouldn’t change.
So, she decided to stay here a little longer, waiting until her divine sense had grown strong enough before leaving.
Feng Qingran entered a meditative state, capturing the clusters of Qi around her.
Multicolored clusters of Qi danced around Feng Qingran, jumping about mischievously.
As soon as Feng Qingran captured one cluster and prepared to pull it into her Sea of Consciousness…
Pop!
The cluster shattered and dispersed.
Then it reformed and began bouncing around Feng Qingran again.
A slight smile touched Feng Qingran’s lips. She no longer rushed to pull the clusters into her Sea of Consciousness, instead using her divine sense to probe them.
————————
High in the sky.
“Why did she sit down? If she doesn’t keep moving, what will happen when the ice below melts?” a black Wyvern asked in confusion.
Gou Chen responded, “She might be tired, taking a rest. Perhaps she’s waiting for the ice to cover the entire Mountain of Knives and Sea of Fire before moving.”
Qiong Qi glared fiercely. “How can she stop to rest? We’re all waiting for her to leave the Primordial Lands!”
Hun Dun rolled its eyes at Qiong Qi. “She doesn’t know you’re waiting for her. Why don’t you go down and tell her to hurry up?”
“Get lost! If I dared to go down, would I be waiting here?” Qiong Qi was vicious, but it wasn’t stupid. The territory below belonged to Ying Long. Going down would be suicide, wouldn’t it?
“Wait, it seems like she’s cultivating!” Ying Zhao said coldly.
“Cultivating? Her? There’s no spiritual energy here. What could she possibly be cultivating?” Taotie almost laughed out loud.
Tao Wu’s eyes flashed with a hint of wisdom. “There are countless paths of cultivation in this world. It doesn’t necessarily have to be spiritual energy. Perhaps she’s cultivating…”
Taotie’s tone was full of disdain. “She’s a cultivator. If she’s not cultivating spiritual energy, what else could she be cultivating?”
Tao Wu shook its head, uncertain. “Perhaps… she’s cultivating Qi…”
“How is that possible? How could a mere cultivator know our method of cultivation?” Ant Emperor disagreed.
The Ten Realms Domain was a place for imprisoning fierce beasts, and the Qi here was naturally suited for their cultivation.
Cultivators who entered usually had only one fate: death.
They had been imprisoned here for far too long, bored out of their minds.
Eventually, the fierce beasts proposed a rule: any cultivator who fell into the Ten Realms Domain couldn’t be eaten immediately.
They had to give the cultivator some time to escape.
If the cultivator managed to flee to another territory, the other beasts weren’t allowed to pursue.
Only when the cultivator had no means of escape left could they be eaten.
As for who got to eat the cultivator, it was all a matter of luck!
“How is it impossible? Our method of cultivation as fierce beasts was bestowed by heaven and earth. If one’s comprehension reaches a certain level, it’s entirely possible to realize the method of cultivating Qi…” You Jiao spoke up.
You Jiao wasn’t a fierce beast born of heaven and earth but had chosen to fall into the ranks of fierce beasts.
When it was still a Ba Snake, no matter how hard it cultivated, it never made any progress.
Within its clan, it was often bullied by other Ba Snakes.
But without any strength, it couldn’t fight back and could only endure silently.
Until its parents died protecting it!
Finally, it learned to resist, but as a result, it was still beaten half to death by other Ba Snakes.
Fortunately, at the brink of death, it realized another method of cultivation. After that, its strength soared, and it miraculously transformed into a Jiao.
Later, You Jiao lured the Red Ants to exterminate the Ba Snake clan, committing a heinous crime.
It was imprisoned in the Ten Realms Domain along with the Red Ants.
The Red Ants only later realized they had been manipulated by You Jiao.
In the Ten Realms Domain, all the fierce beasts knew of the irreconcilable enmity between the Red Ants and You Jiao.
It was only after Qi intervened that You Jiao’s swamp territory was preserved.
“You Jiao, your words make sense. This girl seems quite clever. She might indeed be sensing the presence of Qi,” Ant Emperor agreed.
Hearing You Jiao and Ant Emperor’s words, Qiong Qi grew unhappy. “If she truly comprehends the cultivation method of fierce beasts, we should eat her now.”
“Otherwise, if she spreads this method, wouldn’t the status of fierce beasts be in jeopardy?”
“I’ll go kill her now. I’m sure Ying Long won’t blame me!” Qiong Qi flapped its wings, preparing to descend.
