OBS Chapter 46: Xiao Qiu, thank you for your trouble—
Chapter 46: Xiao Qiu, thank you for your trouble—
"Director, this is Jiang Qiu."
"Xiao Qiu, Xiao Qiao has been taking care of you this past month, hasn't she? She's only awakened half of her ordinary metal physique after taking the [Awakening Pill]. You happen to have the rare metal physique [Daily Accumulation of Metal]. Could you help her replenish her entire physique? I'll reward you handsomely after the assessment."
On the other end of the phone, Director Jiang's tone was sincere and friendly. Jiang Qiu was flattered, but didn't immediately agree. "How can you help?"
"Rare physiques are often superior to ordinary physiques. You can consume a certain amount of metallic spiritual energy to nourish Xiao Qiao. After she digests this part of the spiritual energy, the awakening process will continue until she succeeds. This method will not cause any physical harm to you. It will just create a strange connection between you. You can ignore it."
It only requires consuming some spiritual energy, which is nothing.
They also received a generous reward from Director Jiang.
This is a considerable favor.
But......
Jiang Qiu said regretfully, "I'm sorry, Director, I haven't absorbed any metal spiritual energy yet, so I'm afraid I can't help Jiang Qiao awaken her spiritual power."
"No, the five elements generate each other. As long as there is enough spiritual energy, it can be transformed into metal spiritual energy, regardless of the element. However, ordinary cultivators need to rely on external objects and specific materials to achieve this, but you are [Accumulating Metal Daily], so you can transform it as long as you have the relevant cultivation method."
Although I had heard of this theory before.
But I only heard it secondhand.
Where can I find any methods of spiritual practice?
Each Dharma gate represents a lineage.
There is no reason to pass on information lightly.
Even after becoming an intern.
They can only learn the most common and basic methods of spiritual practice.
Just like martial arts practitioners need to practice standing meditation.
The truly good teachings require a master.
Thinking of this, Jiang Qiu sighed, but her eyes brightened the next second as she heard the person on the other end of the phone continue—
"I know you don't have a cultivation method yet. You can sense me from a distance by holding the bracelet on Xiao Qiao's wrist. I will now teach you a basic cultivation method. This is something I obtained by chance in my early years. Only the [Daily Accumulation of Gold] can use it. I'm giving it all to you. Please help Xiao Qiao improve her constitution."
Jiang Qiu's heart skipped a beat as she suddenly looked at Jiang Qiao's right wrist, where a bracelet woven from emerald green vines emitted a jade-like halo.
The basic cultivation methods after becoming an apprentice are all designed for ordinary practitioners. Although geniuses of various physiques can also use them, they cannot unleash their full potential, and their effects are ultimately inferior to those of the specially adapted basic methods.
The basic techniques, especially those for those with rare physiques, are even rarer and are often passed down through direct bloodlines. It is said that even if no one in their descendants is born with the same rare physique, they may not be willing to pass them on to disciples from other families.
Director Jiang's teachings are passed down from his master!
With a surge of excitement, Jiang Qiu grasped Jiang Qiao's wrist. A thought flashed through his mind, and he leaped across time and space to the other side.
Similar to making a phone call, Director Jiang's voice soon rang out, echoing and penetrating the soul, "Xiao Qiu, thank you for your trouble—"
[Includes basic spiritual practice methods]
【Compatible with "Daily Accumulation Gold (Rare)"】
[1. It can "concentrate" spiritual energy of the same level, condensing 100 strands of level 1 spiritual energy into 1 strand of level 2 spiritual energy, significantly enhancing its properties and making it suitable for more scenarios, exceeding the level 1 of the highest spiritual plant in the body.]
[2. It can "constrain" the five elements' cycle, allowing various spiritual energies to transform according to the five elements: wood generates fire, fire generates earth, earth generates metal, metal generates water, and water generates wood, thus enabling free transformation between different spiritual energies.]
[3. It can "gather" spiritual energy in different proportions and synthesize spiritual energy beyond the five elements according to the needs of cultivation methods. Currently, the "Yang Wood" spiritual energy cultivation method has been included, which can be used to cultivate specific spiritual plants.]
【...】
With a whoosh, a continuous stream of the essential teachings flowed in, instantly clearing Jiang Qiu's ears and eyes. In just a few breaths, he gained more knowledge than he had read ten years' worth of books. Among the teachings was a method to replenish an ordinary metal physique. "Having or not having a physique makes a world of difference. I only have one daughter, Xiao Qiao. I hope you can help her replenish her physique before she begins her cultivation. If she doesn't have enough spiritual energy, I'll ask Zhao Nan to help transfer it to you."
"Don't worry, Director, I still have plenty of spiritual energy left."
"Alright, but you've only just received such a large amount of basic cultivation techniques, and you might not be able to digest them all in a short time. Don't rush things and make mistakes. Give the phone to Zhao Nan, and I'll ask her to look after you..."
Director Jiang sounded urgent, so Jiang Qiu handed the phone to Zhao Nan while continuing her internal communication with him. "I've already spoken to Zhao Nan. You can focus on improving Xiao Qiao's overall health and make sure there are no accidents."
"Okay, I'll give it a try."
I will do my utmost to help you spread the word.
Jiang Qiu gathered her thoughts, her right palm, which held Jiang Qiao's wrist, radiated heat. Conversely, she felt the other's skin was cool and refreshing, like jade. Between these alternating sensations, the thousands of strands of spiritual energy gathered in her dantian swirled and contracted—
【Converge】Level 1 Fire Aura
[Transformation of Fire-attribute Spiritual Energy into Earth-attribute Spiritual Energy]
[Transformation of Earth-based spiritual energy into Metal-based spiritual energy]
[Choose an optimization direction:]
[1. The Five Elements cycle: The spiritual energy of the Five Elements is transformed once according to the celestial cycle, taking a whole day, with a transformation efficiency of 100%.]
[2. Progressive conversion: Selected spiritual energy is converted to the next type of spiritual energy according to the order of the Heavenly Cycle. No time consumption, conversion efficiency 50%]
[3. Reverse Conversion: Selected spiritual energy is converted to the next higher type of spiritual energy according to the reverse cycle. No time consumption, conversion efficiency 20%]
One option, however, has far-reaching consequences. It directly converts all wood-attribute spiritual energy into fire-attribute spiritual energy, and the original fire-attribute spiritual energy into earth-attribute spiritual energy. It will also take two days to obtain metal-attribute spiritual energy.
It took far too long.
It will also disrupt the cultivation plan for spiritual plants.
The second option is to convert fire-attribute spiritual energy into earth-attribute spiritual energy, and then into metal-attribute spiritual energy. Fire generates earth, and earth generates metal. Although this involves two 50% losses, resulting in significant losses, it is the most immediate and useful option.
As for the three options, they are completely contradictory.
After a moment's thought, Jiang Qiu calmed down and chose two options!
[Consumes 600 strands of level 1 fire elemental energy, converted into 300 strands of level 1 earth elemental energy]
[Consumes 300 strands of level 1 earth elemental energy, converted into 150 strands of level 1 metal elemental energy]
Following the basic principles of the method, 150 strands of level 1 metallic spiritual energy are injected into the target's body to encourage the continued awakening of their metallic physique. Furthermore, given that both physiques originate from the same source, the "Golden Spirit Cage Body (Normal)" is formed.
This "Golden Spirit Cage (Common)" is a common physique associated with "Daily Accumulation of Gold (Rare)". When the other party uses the characteristics of this physique, the spiritual energy consumed will be fed back to "Daily Accumulation of Gold (Rare)".
With a whoosh, hundreds of strands of red spiritual energy condensed within the "Golden Spirit Cage" in the dantian, then burned up like firewood, turning into ashes and dissipating, leaving behind a wisp of deep brown spiritual energy.
Bang bang bang! This tuft of brown spiritual energy seemed to have been refined through countless trials, impurities removed, and twisted into a tuft of even more refined and fine yellow spiritual energy.
Whoosh! Yellow spiritual energy entered Jiang Qiao's wrist.
Following the meridians to the dantian, it condensed into a "Golden Spirit Cage" fruit, faint and still immature, from which a phantom line was drawn, connecting to Jiang Qiu's own dantian, like mother and child.
【Daily Accumulation of Gold (Rare)】is the mother.
【Golden Spirit Cage (Ordinary)】is the child.
It could be sensed that the disordered five elements within Jiang Qiao's body were rearranging themselves and operating in an orderly manner, becoming increasingly smooth and efficient.
At the same time, the ends of her hair curled again, her soft wrists were held more tightly in her palms, her eyelashes were slightly curled, her cheeks were rosy, and she looked very healthy.
Even his breathing became much more steady, and he was breathing out warm air.
My lips are inexplicably pressed tightly together...
