After a while, Li Yingqiong opened her eyes and replied with joy, "Yes, Father."
"Read it again. If there's anything you don't understand, tell me. I'll answer it for you," Li Ning said seriously.
"Yes." Li Yingqiong didn't dare to delay. She quickly closed her eyes again and carefully browsed through the memories in her mind. Every time she encountered something difficult, she would ask Li Ning about it.
Li Ning, on the other hand, used his decades of knowledge and cultivation experience to answer the questions that appeared in his mind.
Just like that, the two of them asked and answered. In the blink of an eye, it was time for the night.
"Have you learned it?" Li Ning asked again.
"Yes," Li Yingqiong nodded and replied.
"Good, let's start cultivating."
As Li Ning spoke, he reached out and took the porcelain bottle on the stone table beside him. He poured out two longan-sized golden pills sealed with wax from the bottle. He kept one for himself and gave the other to Li Yingqiong.
"Take it, then start cultivating the Qi Cultivation chapter," Li Ning said.
Li Yingqiong didn't hesitate. She immediately used a little force with her fingers to break the wax seal and peel the pill out.
In an instant, a strange fragrance spread from the pill, making Li Yingqiong and Li Ning beside her feel refreshed.
"It's indeed an immortal pill," Li Ning praised.
Li Yingqiong's eyes were filled with joy. She opened her mouth and put the pill in.
As soon as it came into contact with the liquid in her mouth, the pill immediately turned into a clear stream. It flowed down the twelfth floor and slid down the esophagus into the stomach. It didn't reach the stomach wall and flowed around the body along the blood vessels. It stirred up the five elements with the changes of the four seasons. The spiritual Qi of life in the stomach.
Feeling the fullness in her body, Li Yingqiong quickly got up and sat cross-legged on the ground. She made a gesture with her hands and silently chanted the incantation to cultivate.
As Li Yingqiong's breathing gradually changed, waves of Primordial Spirit Qi of Heaven and Earth rushed in from the surrounding wind, wrapping around Li Yingqiong's body and entering her body through the holes of her body. Following the changes, the Primordial Spirit Qi began to wander around her body.
Seeing that Li Yingqiong had entered the state. Li Ning didn't delay any longer. He got up and walked to the side of the quiet room to sit cross-legged. He pinched the wax seal and threw the pill into his mouth. He closed his eyes. He chanted the incantation. He started cultivating.
After a while. Another spirit qi whirlwind appeared around him.
Four hours later …
Li Yingqiong's eyelids moved slightly, and she withdrew from the Fixed Space.
"Hmm, it stinks." Li Yingqiong frowned and exclaimed in a low voice.
As he spoke, he instinctively raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose.
"Uh …" An even stronger stench rushed into her nose.
"This is …" Li Yingqiong raised her hand and frowned as she looked at the black stain on the back of her palm.
Thinking of something, Li Yingqiong quickly lowered her head and checked the status of her body. Sure enough, it was as she'd expected. Everywhere she looked was covered in black filthy clothes that were sticky and emitted a foul stench.
"So disgusting." Li Yingqiong frowned.
"Hahahaha, as expected of an immortal technique. It actually has the ability to cleanse one's marrow." Just at this moment, Li Ning's delighted laughter sounded from the quiet room at the side.
"Father." Li Yingqiong got up and quickly walked into the quiet room at the side.
Immediately, another foul stench hit her face. It was so strong that Li Yingqiong almost fainted from the smell.
"Father, what are we …" Li Yingqiong endured the stench in the room and asked.
"This is the rumor of Jianghu. These black stains are the impurities in our bodies. After this change, our bodies have become clear and our physique has been greatly improved," Li Ninghuan said with amusement.
"Oh." Li Yingqiong finally understood the origin of the mud on her body.
"But you can't see others like this. Let's go wash up first." Li Ning got up and said.
Li Yingqiong naturally had no objection to this. She hurriedly went to the water room at the side with Li Ning and took out a large wooden bucket for bathing. She filled it with water from a small bucket, then took off her clothes and jumped into the bucket to wash up.
Naturally, Li Yingqiong was the first to wash up. As for Li Ning, he placed the bucket outside the cave and refilled it with water.
Since that day, Li Ning and his daughter diligently cultivated until a few days later when Sei Itō returned.
"Not bad." Sei Itō nodded and praised as he looked at the two people whose bodies were filled with dense Qi.
"Then senior brother, why are you teaching me the sword technique?" Li Yingqiong asked anxiously.
"Your foundation is not solid yet. You still need some time. Once your foundation is solid, I will teach you." Sei Itō smiled and then turned to look at Li Ning. He pointed at his forehead and said, "This is the sword technique of our sect. You can practice it in your spare time."
"I understand." Li Ning cupped his fists.
Seeing this, a trace of resentment flashed in Li Yingqiong's eyes.
After passing on the sword technique, Sei Itō asked the two some questions and guided them on some important points in their cultivation. Then, he sent them away and let them practice on their own.
After more than three months, Sei Itō finally passed on the sword technique to Li Yingqiong, who already had a solid foundation.
Then, half a year passed in the blink of an eye.
Sei Itō felt that the two of them had more or less mastered their swordsmanship, so he began to teach them Daoist techniques.
The father and daughter of the Li family, who had been looking forward to learning magic, were naturally overjoyed and began to diligently cultivate again.
Time passed and five years passed in the blink of an eye.
Under the guidance of Ito Sei and the occasional supplement of elixirs, Li Yingqiong, who was blessed by the Heavens, and Li Ning, who had a solid foundation, had both entered the Daoist Jindan Realm and officially became true Daoist cultivators.
On this day, Sei Itō, who had reappeared in the cave residence, called the father and daughter to him.
"Young master, senior brother." The two cupped their fists and bowed.
"I see that the two of you have a solid foundation. It's time to go down the mountain to gain experience and cultivate merit." Ito Cheng nodded and said with satisfaction.
"Can we really go down the mountain?" Li Yingqiong asked excitedly.
As a heroic girl, she had stayed in the mountain for five years with only her father and the beast as her companions. One could imagine how lonely she was. It was no wonder that she was so excited when she heard that they could go down the mountain.
"Of course. Aside from cultivation, you also have to walk the path and comprehend the Dao. The path of cultivation is needless to say. It is to enter the mortal world and train yourself. As for comprehending the Dao, although it is to comprehend nature, how can you comprehend it without accumulating experience? Thus, you also have to comprehend it as you go. "Sei Itō smiled.
Then, Sei Itō gave a few more instructions and left the mountain with the two of them, leaving them in the mortal world.
"Yingqiong, remember to be careful." Li Ning instructed.
"Don't worry, father. I know." Li Yingqiong smiled. However, from her words, it seemed that she didn't care too much.
Li Ning frowned when he saw this, but he couldn't be too harsh on her. He casually gave a few more instructions and flew away with his sword. As per Sei Itō's request, the two of them had to travel alone.
After bidding farewell to Li Ning, Li Yingqiong began to play in the mortal world like a wild horse.
She didn't know how long she had traveled and how many villages she had passed. Just as she entered another village, a commotion attracted her attention.
"Help! Someone's killing me!"
"You old woman, you're spouting nonsense!"
"I'm spouting nonsense? Then how did my husband fall! "
"He was the one who poured it."
"If you didn't push him, my husband wouldn't have become like this."
On the ground beside her, a man's entire body was twitching and foaming at the mouth.
"That's your husband's sick. What does it have to do with me?" The man shook off the woman's arm and turned to leave.
"Help! Murder! The murderer is running away!" The woman stepped forward and hugged the man's legs, crying.
"Hey, you man. Since you did it, why don't you dare to admit it?" At this moment, Li Yingqiong, who was dressed in red, jumped out from the crowd. She pointed at the man and shouted angrily.
"I didn't do it at all!" The man said angrily.
"If you didn't do it, then why didn't that woman let go of you?"
"How would I know?" The man said impatiently.
"Since you can't explain it clearly, then you did it."
"Heroine, you must uphold justice for my father!" The woman took the opportunity to shout.
"You evil woman, I don't want to bother with you." The man shouted and struggled to break free from the woman's grasp. He strode forward.
"Where do you think you're going?" Li Yingqiong shouted angrily. She jumped forward and pressed the man to the ground.
"Come with me to see the magistrate." Li Yingqiong shouted. Then, she forced the man into the magistrate's office with the woman and the crowd surrounding them.
The interrogation process was not described, only the result. In the end, the man was sentenced to five strokes with the rod and compensation for the woman's husband's medical expenses.
Li Yingqiong nodded slightly and flashed out of the crowd with a smug look. Just as she was about to take a look at the woman, a short whisper was heard.
"Husband, you're good at pretending. You swindled another two coins."
"That's right. It's all thanks to that foolish woman. If she didn't stop you, this business may not have been successful."
"I guess he's just a fledgling in Jianghu. His head is full of chivalry and he doesn't know the dangers of Jianghu."
"Hehehehe, that's right."
Hearing this, Li Yingqiong understood that she had been swindled. She immediately wanted to kill the two with her flying sword. Fortunately, the righteous heart in his heart was still strong, and he suppressed his killing intent. However, he was not prepared to let the two of them go. Thus, he immediately jumped out from the darkness and beat the swindler couple to the ground with his fists and feet.
A moment later, Li Yingqiong, who had vented her anger, did not stay in the town any longer. She jumped into the air and flew away.
However, not long after she flew, a sword light flew out from the side. Li Yingqiong, who knew it was a fellow swindler, was happy and chased after it.
"Who are you? Why are you chasing me?" The sword light in front of her stopped in midair and revealed the image of a handsome young man. He asked in a deep voice.
"Well, I'm sorry. I'm Li Yingqiong of the Profound Heaven Sect. I was happy to see a fellow swindler and wanted to make friends. That's why I chased after you with my sword. I hope you can forgive me." Li Yingqiong said with some embarrassment.
"So that's how it is. I thought it was some unorthodox sect that wanted to kill me." The young man smiled. He then cupped his hands and returned the greeting. "I'm Li Jinglin, a rogue cultivator."
