Reborn as a girl, I will live forever in the world of immortality

Chapter 37 The reason for the abnormality, cultivating immortality also requires working

After all, He Ling has experienced a lot of people. Although she is not calm, it does not show on her face.

"Oh." She sighed. She didn't expect this to be the result.

But later He Ling cheered up again. Although she had separated from Xiaoqing, with He Ling's endless lifespan, she at least avoided the separation of life and death between her and Xiaoqing decades later.

By this calculation, the time she and Xiaoqing spent together actually increased.

When he returned to the inn and saw the empty room, He Ling couldn't help but sigh again.

After opening the package given by the female cultivator, he found that there were only a few gold bars, a small porcelain bottle, and a book inside.

There was nothing else besides this. He Ling couldn't help but curl her lips. This cultivator was too stingy. He didn't even have a spirit stone.

He threw a few pieces of gold aside, picked up the book and started reading.

There were three big words written on the cover of the book - The Sutra of Inducing the Spirit. He Ling read it once and his face lit up with joy. This turned out to be a book on cultivating immortals.

It talks about how to sense and absorb spiritual energy. Although it is very basic stuff at first glance, it is exactly what He Ling needs now.

He put the book down, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to sense the spiritual energy according to the instructions in the book.

At first, it was pitch black all around, but gradually, small dots of different colors appeared around, and He Ling was delighted.

According to the Spirit Induction Sutra, those who can sense spiritual energy in about an hour are at a normal level, those who can sense spiritual energy in half an hour are considered to be slightly talented, and those who can sense spiritual energy in a cup of tea can be considered geniuses. As for those who can sense spiritual energy immediately after closing their eyes like myself, the book does not mention it at all.

A thought popped up in her mind: Could I be a genius in cultivating immortality? She felt a surge of joy in her heart, but then she quickly calmed down and continued to sense the spiritual energy.

He Ling practiced the Soul Inducing Sutra, and a small bright spot not far from her was absorbed into her body. He Ling began to travel in the meridians according to the Soul Inducing Sutra, but disappeared when passing a certain position in her lower abdomen.

He Ling frowned. What was going on? This was different from what the Soul Inducing Sutra said. According to the Sutra, once spiritual energy entered the body, it would flow through the meridians. Once the spiritual energy accumulated to a certain level, one could become a cultivator at the first level of Qi Refining. However, her spiritual energy suddenly disappeared as it passed through her lower abdomen.

Afterwards, He Ling controlled himself and inhaled several more light spots, but it was the same every time.

Can't I cultivate immortality? He Ling's heart sank, and she inevitably thought of this question.

She flipped through the Soul-Inducing Sutra again, and sure enough, this question was not mentioned there. When He Ling was at a loss, she suddenly seemed to think of something.

She closed her eyes again, but this time she did not absorb spiritual energy, but came to a vibrant green meadow.

In the middle of the grass lay a lotus flower radiating a rainbow of divine light. This was He Ling's greatest secret—the Fountain of Eternal Life. She observed the lotus carefully and discovered that it was surrounded by two masses of almost transparent white gas. Within the colorful lotus, one of the originally pure white petals had a very slight golden tint at its base. He Ling had a bird's-eye view in this dimension, otherwise she wouldn't have noticed this. Fortunately, He Ling often came to this dimension to observe the lotus flowers, so this change was quickly noticed by her.

She already had some guesses in her mind.

She closed her eyes again, and spots of light appeared around her. He Ling practiced the Soul-Guiding Sutra, and the surrounding spots of light began to move towards her body and then dissolved into her body.

Her eyes were still closed, but her perspective switched to the Baoquan space. Sure enough, she saw a wisp of white mist around the colorful lotus, but the petals did not change.

He Ling was certain in her heart that something had happened to her.

Conventional cultivators accumulate spiritual energy within their bodies, and once it reaches a certain level, they enter the Qi Refining Stage. However, she possesses the Longevity Treasure Spring within her body. The spiritual energy that should have been accumulated within her body now flows into the Treasure Spring space as it passes through her lower abdomen. He Ling only confirmed the location of this Treasure Spring within her body today.

After figuring out this section, the previous questions were easily solved. It turned out that she was not without spiritual roots. It was just that the treasure spring covered it up during the previous test.

He Ling guessed that as long as she accumulated enough spiritual power and the petal turned completely golden, she would be able to become a Qi-refining cultivator.

After it was confirmed, He Ling was not in a hurry. According to the progress of the petal on the colorful lotus, she estimated that it would take some time to become a cultivator. She had plenty of time, so there was no rush.

He Lingna picked up the small porcelain bottle and took a look. There were three small words written on it - Qi-Nourishing Pill. This was mentioned in the Spirit Induction Sutra. It was a kind of pill commonly used in the early stages of Qi training to increase spiritual energy.

He Ling thought about it and decided to open it and pour out one. It was brown all over and looked ordinary, but it was very round, in stark contrast to the flat shape of a mortal's after being rubbed with hands.

As soon as she entered, He Ling felt a stream of spiritual energy flowing along her lower abdomen, and then after reaching a certain place, it disappeared completely.

He Ling's eyes lit up. This was much more efficient than her meditation. She estimated that the pill she had just taken would be equivalent to at least half a day of meditation.

She looked inside the porcelain bottle again and saw only four Qi-nourishing Pills. After thinking about it, He Ling decided not to eat them all. Although she had an almost bottomless treasure spring space and was not afraid of bursting herself, keeping them might have other uses.

He Ling paid five days' room fee for this inn in advance. Today is the fifth day, so He Ling can't stay here any longer tonight, but she doesn't plan to extend her stay either.

In the evening, I bought a lot of food and went to the woods outside the town to find the two dogs. I stayed with them for one night.

The next day, he went to the white-robed Taoist priest in charge of registration and paid the registration fee for the Five Spirit Pearls. The white-robed Taoist priest then handed He Ling a brass token.

From then on, He Ling could enter and leave the town freely.

After that, He Ling planned to find a job in the small town. The spirit stones she had in her hand were still the ones she used to buy the thousand-year-old ginseng last time. This place was full of immortal cultivators, and she was too weak to sell the thousand-year-old ginseng. She had to work honestly.

The first choice is the major alchemy rooms. She has a treasure spring that can quickly cultivate plants. The position of an alchemy room clerk not only allows her to see various spiritual medicines, but also allows her to be familiar with various elixirs. It is simply tailor-made for her.

However, everyone obviously knew that the alchemy room was a good job. He Ling went for several rounds of interviews but was rejected every time. The competition was so fierce these days that even cultivators in the Qi Refining stage wanted to find a job in the alchemy room. As a mortal, He Ling had no advantages except that she was good-looking, so people naturally would not choose her.

He had no choice but to go to other places in the town to ask, and happened to come across a weapon refining pavilion that was recruiting people, and specifically wanted to recruit mortals.

He Ling also went to take a look and found out the reason. It turned out that weapon refiners had a high status in the world of immortal cultivation, but there was a shortcoming in the weapon refining industry. That was that most weapon embryos needed to be made by manpower, and then magic arrays had to be engraved on the weapon embryos before they could become spiritual weapons.

Although a weapon refiner could have done this, but if I forged iron when I was a mortal, and I still have to forge iron as a cultivator, then wouldn't I have become a cultivator in vain? Therefore, cultivators naturally don't do this. When the weapon refinement pavilion couldn't find anyone, they naturally thought of mortals.

Over time, the task of making weapon embryos has been defaulted to mortals. This time, the Weapon Refining Pavilion is recruiting people because there is a big order this time, and the number of people to make the embryos is really not enough, so they can only recruit new people.

He Ling also went to find out about it. This embryo did not require any skills. It was just a matter of beating the iron block into the shape of a weapon. The subsequent work would be done by the weapon refiner.

He Ling also signed up. Her current physical condition was many times better than that of an ordinary person, and her strength was ridiculously great, so it didn't take much effort for her to work as a blacksmith.

Originally, the person in charge was not optimistic about He Ling, but he never expected that this woman could do the work of two strong men when it came to ironwork, and only needed to be paid the price of one person. The person in charge officially hired He Ling during the probation period.

In view of He Ling's outstanding performance, her salary was set at three spirit beads per month, while the other blacksmiths were paid two spirit beads per month.

The Refining Pavilion provided meals, so He Ling would still camp in the woods with her two dogs at night. It wasn't that she didn't want a better place, it was just too expensive! Her current monthly salary only allowed her to stay in an inn for three days. As for a small courtyard with a private entrance, the price started at spirit stones. There were also the legendary immortal caves, which were said to cost dozens or even hundreds of spirit stones a year. In comparison, sleeping in the woods with her two dogs was quite nice. At least it didn't cost spirit beads.
