Chapter 6

{I'll be going out later, so I'm sending this in advance. Also, I wish everyone a happy double festival.}

"Little sister, do you have paper and a pen at home?" Lingfeng, who had recognized Xiaoying as his sister, was in a good mood and suddenly remembered that his little sister didn't have a proper cultivation method. He immediately decided to write one out for her to practice.

"Yes, I'll go get them." Xiaoying didn't ask much, put down the meat, and was about to fetch them.

"No need to rush. Finish your meat first, and then you can get them." Lingfeng stopped her and asked, "By the way, is this meat tasty?"

"Yes, it's very tasty." This was Xiaoying's sincere thought. The meat was better than any she had ever tasted, of course, partly because she hadn't eaten much meat before.

"If it's tasty, eat more." Recognizing Xiaoying as his sister, Lingfeng felt much better and quoted a line from a commercial he remembered, then took a piece for himself.

This leg of beast was quite large, and it took the two of them a long time to eat just a tenth of it, with most of it going into his stomach. The remaining meat was cut into small pieces by Xiaoying, wrapped in lotus leaves, and stored.

After doing this, she ran into the house, took out the paper and pen, and handed them to Lingfeng.

"Let's go inside." Saying this, Lingfeng led Xiaoying into the house.

He moved a table and an oil lamp, while Xiaoying picked up the inkstone and started grinding the ink.

Lingfeng cut the paper into 32-page sizes, stacked them together, and tied them with a few hemp ropes. He then placed them on the table, picked up the brush, dipped it in the ink, and began to write swiftly and elegantly.

Lingfeng wrote very quickly, one page after another, without any pause.

Xiaoying, on the side, ground the ink while watching Lingfeng write.

Although Xiaoying had only been exposed to some basic cultivation methods, she could tell that what Lingfeng was writing was a very good cultivation method. The subtlety and depth in the words far exceeded what she had previously learned.

However, this made Xiaoying even more curious about Lingfeng's identity, wondering how he could know such a high-level cultivation method.

Lingfeng didn't notice these thoughts. He was fully focused on writing the cultivation method. After a full hour, he had used up a thick stack of paper and stopped.

"Phew, finally done." Lingfeng sighed in relief, closed the book, and wrote "Xuantian True Qi" in large characters on the blank first page.

"Brother, what level of cultivation method is this? I feel it's much more advanced than what I've practiced before?" Xiaoying asked instinctively.

"I won't tell you the level for now. Just know that this is what you will practice for the next period." Lingfeng didn't reveal the level of the cultivation method and added, "Tonight, don't do anything else. Memorize the entire book. Once you're familiar with it, burn the first half, which contains the true qi cultivation method."

This "Xuantian True Qi" was a mid-grade Earth-level cultivation method, a very rare and valuable method, especially effective for cultivating true qi and strengthening the body.

Lingfeng didn't tell Xiaoying this, not because he didn't trust her, but because the value of this cultivation method was extremely high. If it were to leak, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Burn it? Why?" Xiaoying was taken aback, not understanding why Lingfeng would do this.

"Some things are not for people of our cultivation level to possess. Keeping it will only bring unnecessary trouble. Also, you must not tell anyone about this." Lingfeng warned.

"Can't I even tell my brother?" Xiaoying couldn't help but ask.

"No." Lingfeng understood Xiaoying's thoughts and added, "I mean, don't tell him for now. Besides, this cultivation method may not be suitable for him. When I see him, I'll choose a suitable one for him."

"Brother, do you have other cultivation methods?" Although Lingfeng didn't tell her the level of "Xuantian True Qi," seeing how careful he was, Xiaoying felt that this method might be very valuable, possibly even a high-level Human-grade method.

As for Earth-level, she didn't dare to think about it, as that was something only super families could possess.

But from Lingfeng's words, it seemed he had more such methods, which surprised her.

"Only two or three, not many." Lingfeng smiled and didn't dwell on the question. "Alright, do as I said. I need to go practice now."

"Okay!" Xiaoying nodded and didn't think about anything else. She immediately opened the book and began to memorize it.

After Lingfeng returned to his room and sat down, he took out a light green crystal nucleus from his pocket, about the size of a thumbnail.

"I've heard that the demon crystals in the brains of demon beasts contain the essence of the five elements. I didn't expect it to be true. It seems that this time, heaven is on my side." Lingfeng's face showed a delighted smile.

He then focused his mind, and the Azure Dragon emerged from his chest, approaching the demon crystal and swallowing the wood attribute crystal in one bite.

Subsequently, a light green glow flashed over the Azure Dragon, and the demon crystal was completely digested.

"Hmm?" Lingfeng's eyebrows raised as he saw this, thinking, "The wood essence in this demon nucleus is too little!"

Lingfeng was a bit disappointed. In such a large demon crystal, there was only a tiny bit of wood essence, not even enough to fill the Azure Dragon's teeth. The Azure Dragon needed a large amount of wood essence to level up.

"It seems relying solely on demon crystals to level up the Azure Dragon won't work. I still need to find the essence of the five elements. I wonder how many of them exist in this era." Lingfeng was a bit disappointed, but he knew it would be a long process, and there was no point in rushing.

Shaking his head, he put aside his杂念 and entered his cultivation.

The night passed quickly, and Lingfeng stopped his cultivation. This night's practice increased the true qi in his body, but he was still far from breaking through.

Shaking his head, he stopped thinking about the troubling matters and got up to leave the room.

"Brother, you're awake. Come and eat." It was Xiaoying's voice. Looking in her direction, he saw Xiaoying carrying two bowls of meat out of the kitchen.

At first glance, Lingfeng noticed a change in Xiaoying.

Although she was still wearing the same set of clothes that had been washed until they were somewhat faded, her appearance was completely different.

The most noticeable change was her complexion. Although it was still pale, it now had a hint of redness, which made her already beautiful face even more attractive.

The only downside was her frail body, which showed no improvement.

Lingfeng knew that this was due to long-term malnutrition, and it couldn't be remedied in a short time. It would take some time.

"Brother, is there something wrong with me?" Xiaoying, seeing Lingfeng examining her, thought there might be something dirty on her and asked.

"No, let's eat." Lingfeng shook his head and walked to the table.

"Why haven't you left yet?" At this moment, the old village chief's voice came from behind Lingfeng.

"Grandpa Village Chief, have you eaten yet? Why don't you join us?" Xiaoying, seeing the old village chief, immediately smiled and invited him.

"Still eating? Do you know that Cao Ning has brought people and is already at the village entrance? You need to leave quickly, or it will be too late." The old village chief urged.

"So soon?" Xiaoying's hand trembled, and the bowl in her hand fell to the ground.

She had expected Cao Ning to come for revenge, but she didn't expect him to come so quickly. She looked at Lingfeng and asked, "Brother, what should we do?"

"Just a few minor characters, no need to worry." Saying this, Lingfeng looked at the old village chief and said, "Grandpa Village Chief, since you're here, why don't you stay and eat?"

"Ah, young man, why are you so stubborn? Cao Ning has brought many helpers. You're no match for them. Listen to me and leave quickly..."

"Leave? Can we even leave?" At this moment, Cao Ning and his group were already at the door.
