In the next two weeks, Zhou Bai silently read the Daoist scriptures to improve his Daoism.
As for laziness, it was all accumulated and not used at all.
However, Daoist scripture 09 was indeed stranger and more difficult than he had expected. Every time he finished reading, he had to walk around in order to relieve the discomfort in his heart.
Zhou Bai found that after chatting with Qian Wangsun, Jing Xiu, and the others, and then going to the cafeteria to eat or walk the dog, the discomfort in his heart would be greatly reduced.
The only pity was that the 2,000 points awarded for the first place in the last assessment had been spent by Zhou Bai.
Now, he only had 200 basic points and 200 extra points every month, so he could not continue to eat and drink as much as before.
However, he could at least eat meat every day.
"Sigh, I still don't have enough points to spend. If I could eat Ba Snake Bone Soup, Red Fish Soup, and any other extraordinary food every day, my cultivation would definitely be faster.
"And those Dharma treasures, array diagrams, talismans, and the like, not to mention.
"Sigh."
At this moment, Zhou Bai was sitting in the cafeteria with a bowl of rice and a bowl of crystal demonic kernel in front of him.
She saw him eating the rice and the meat with relish.
The crystal demonic kernel had the taste of shrimp and could also subtly enhance the reaction speed of the person who ate it. It was a dish that Zhou Bai liked very much.
At this moment, the cafeteria aunties carried the food and sat at the table to the left of Zhou Bai and began to eat.
Zhou Bai looked at the time. It was three o 'clock in the afternoon, and the cafeteria aunties had eaten in advance.
However, when he saw the food they were eating, Zhou Bai's eyes moved slightly and found that they were all eating porridge and some pickled vegetables.
This was not the first time that Zhou Bai had seen such a scene. The cafeteria aunties seemed to have only eaten porridge and pickled vegetables. They had never eaten the food in the cafeteria.
This time, Zhou Bai finally couldn't help but ask, "Aunties, you eat porridge every day?"
Auntie Wang, who had "shakily" added meat to Zhou Bai's bowl, turned around and said with a smile, "It's good to have porridge to eat. This is human food porridge. Eating one bowl will make you energetic for the whole day. You can't even get it outside."
"Outside …" Zhou Bai asked curiously, "There isn't much food outside?"
Auntie Wang shook her head and said, "There are more than 300 million people in Dong Hua City. How can we afford to eat that much? In the Daoist school, we can still get some human food to make porridge with you, but outside, we can't eat such extraordinary food. We can only eat ordinary porridge, noodles, and eggs."
At the thought of adding eggs, Zhou Bai's gaze became slightly dazed. He seemed to recall the bowl of noodles he had eaten in the morning of the entrance examination.
He nodded thoughtfully and heard Aunt Wang say, "I've added an extra spoonful of Crystal Devil Kernel for you today. Keep it up and practice hard."
Zhou Bai smiled and nodded. "That's for sure. I'll definitely be number one in the school in the future."
After the meal, he took Ai Sha for a walk. Zhou Bai felt that he was in a good mood now. Later, he could try reading Daoist Canon 09 in the quiet room again.
Over the past two weeks, Zhou Bai had become more and more accustomed to reading Daoist Canon 09. His Enlightenment Degree had also increased to 9.6%.
"There are only two days left before the assessment.
"I'm in a good state today. I can try and see if I can increase my Enlightenment Degree to 9.9% in one go."
On the way back to the dormitory, Zhou Bai saw Kong Lian.
At this moment, Kong Lian's expression was bleak, and the bottom of her right sleeve was empty.
Zhou Bai still remembered that during the incident with the Sky Demon, Kong Lian's right hand had been dissolved by the devil energy and broken by Sun Yuzhen.
Thinking back to the first time they met, Kong Lian was in high spirits in the arena. Now, he was like a different person.
Zhou Bai scanned Kong Lian's back and sides. At this moment, Kong Lian was carrying large and small bags. Beside him, there were two men and women with sallow faces and white sideburns. They were helping him carry the bags.
Zhou Bai guessed inwardly, "I heard from Jing Xiu that Kong Lian's cultivation hasn't been able to keep up after losing his arm. Did he drop out?" Looking at Kong Lian's departing back, Zhou Bai shook his head. However, he sighed inwardly and didn't go up to greet him.
When he returned to the dormitory, Zhou Bai saw Jing Xiu using the power of her Essence Soul to sweep the floor, wash clothes, and wash the bedsheets. At the same time, she grabbed Ai Sha into the air and helped her clean up.
"Ah, Big Brother Zhou?" Jing Xiu turned her head and said with a smile, "You're back. I'm almost done. Let's study together."
"Okay." Zhou Bai nodded and sat on a chair. He was really happy to see someone cleaning the room for him while increasing his laziness.
Meow! Meow!
Hearing the cat's meow, Jing Xiu turned around. "I'm coming, Tina." The invisible power of her Essence Soul moved slightly and gently touched Tina's body. She began to massage her back.
White Cat's body rose and fell under the massage. Only then did a look of enjoyment appear on her face. Her eyes slowly closed.
"Hmph, this woman is quite useful." Cristina used the power of her Essence Soul to communicate with Zhou Bai. "I've already trained her to be my slave. It's really easy to train her."
As she spoke, Cristina stretched out her paws and lay down on the ground. She raised her butt and stretched her paws.
Jing Xiu looked at the little cat lying back down after stretching. She couldn't help but stroke it again. "Cristina's fur is like cotton. It's so comfortable to touch.
Big Brother Zhou, I kind of understand why you want to keep a cat. Even if you feel terrible after reading the Daoist Canon, your mood will probably improve when you touch a little cat. "
"Hehe." Zhou Bai smiled on the surface, but he thought to himself, 'If you know what this silly cat is really thinking, you'll probably want to beat her to death.'
These days, Jing Xiu came to Zhou Bai's house every day to help clean and study together. Naturally, she had already become familiar with the cat and dog in Zhou Bai's house.
Zhou Bai picked up a scripture on the table and started reading. However, he was just casually flipping through it. He wanted to break through to the Dao Transformation Realm again tonight to relax.
As he read, Zhou Bai asked casually, "Jing Xiu, your home is in Dong Hua City, right? Why don't you go back and visit? "
"I don't have anything to do if I go back." Jing Xiu did the housework and said, "My father is a doctor, and my mother is a teacher. They are usually very busy. I won't be able to see them when I go back, so I might as well focus on my cultivation."
Zhou Bai nodded. Other than Dong Hua Dao School, which specialized in cultivation, the huge Dong Hua City, with a population of more than 300 million, still needed all kinds of hospitals, schools, factories, food, and other industries.
However, there were almost no private enterprises now. Everything was controlled by the government and the Celestial Court. After satisfying the basic living conditions of the commoners, everything was tilted towards cultivators and war.
After a while, Jing Xiu finished cleaning the room and sat next to Zhou Bai. She took out her notebook and said, "Brother Zhou, I have some questions that I didn't understand yesterday. I want to ask you again."
"It's this. Recently, when I breathe, I always feel that the position from the Twelve Floors to the Lower Dantian is not smooth. Is it because the number of Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches that I have rotated when I breathe? Look, this is the number of Heavenly Cycles that I calculated. "
Zhou Bai frowned and fell into silence. His eyes emitted the light of wisdom as if he was thinking about Jing Xiu's question.
Pa! Cristina jumped onto Zhou Bai's shoulder and glanced at Jing Xiu's notebook.
Then, she saw Zhou Bai say, "Oh, this is very simple. Listen to me …"
After a while, Jing Xiu said with a face full of joy, "I see. Is it because my learning of the Book of Changes is wrong? Brother Zhou, you're amazing. "
Zhou Bai said, "Sigh, these are the basics. It's not a big deal. The learning of the Book of Changes is the foundation of cultivation. You must learn it well and ask me if there's anything you don't understand. "
After four months of learning, Zhou Bai also knew that the current human civilization still had theories about the Book of Changes.
When he thought about the learning of the Book of Changes, he couldn't help but think of the first hexagram of the Book of Changes absorbed by Cristina's gem.
"Speaking of which, the current textbooks don't have the original text of the Book of Changes. Instead, there are all kinds of secondary notes, and it's one of the basic theories of cultivation. Sigh, it's a pity that I can't recite the Book of Changes at all.
"Speaking of which, what is the use of this gem and the sixty-four hexagram?"
After the incident with the Sky Demon, Zhou Bai also tried to use the gem and the first hexagram.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't use its power, so he had to give up for now.
"I'm afraid it's not something that I can use right now. I'd better increase my cultivation."
That night, after sending Jing Xiu off, Zhou Bai came to the quiet room again, ready to increase his Enlightenment Degree to 9.9%.
Cristina listened to Zhou Bai's thoughts and looked at the gem on her neck.
Since absorbing the first hexagram, as Zhou Bai's Enlightenment Degree increased, the cracks on the gem seemed to be getting smaller and smaller. It was getting closer and closer to its original appearance.
"Is the gem recovering?"
