The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

While Xiao Han was in seclusion practicing and Ba Dou was trying to reach a new realm, Lu Xinyu also began to prepare to become a casual cultivator.

She was currently at the eighth level of Qi training, still a long way from reaching the Great Perfection of Qi training. While she still didn't have to pay rent, she wanted to increase her time for cultivation.

The second place is the family's martial arts hall, where she has to go to practice more.

After becoming more proficient in the use of magical instruments and the casting of spells, he joined the hunting teams in the family to conduct practical training.

Then, Zhen Miaomiao discovered that her playmate and good sister Lu Xinyu suddenly had no time to go shopping with her.

Every time I went to see her, she was either practicing or practicing fighting in the martial arts hall.

When Zhen Miaomiao came to see Lu Xinyu again that day, she found her in the martial arts hall again. She couldn't help but wonder, "Cousin, you seem like a different person lately. You're either practicing or learning fighting techniques. You don't even play with me anymore."

Lu Xinyu naturally wouldn't reveal her true thoughts to her. She just made up an excuse and said, "Next year, the younger generations in the family will have a big competition. My mother said that as long as I rank well in the competition, she will reward me handsomely, so I can't play anymore. Miaomiao, go play with your ninth sister and the others during this time. I may not be able to accompany you."

Zhen Miaomiao had no choice but to go find other sisters to play with. However, she was not careful with her words and soon spread the news that Lu Xinyu wanted to win a good place in the competition.

So when Lu Xinyu met her seventh cousin, he teased her, "I heard that Fifth Sister vowed to win a good place in next year's competition. Now she spends every day in the martial arts hall. How much use will practicing there be? Why not come with us to hunt monsters?"

Unexpectedly, Lu Xinyu said happily, "Okay, Brother Qi, you must keep your word. When is your next hunt?"

The seventh cousin was surprised, "Are you serious?"

He immediately shook his head. "No, you have no combat experience. You won't be able to help us at all. How can we share the prey with you?"

He said that before just to tease his cousin who only knew how to have fun, but he didn't want to add any more burdens to the team.

Lu Xinyu said, "I don't want any money, I just want to go along and have some fun and see for myself."

The seventh cousin was helpless, "Okay then."

Lu Xinyu didn't think that she could make money by hunting right from the start. She had to take it step by step, gain more practical experience, and then consider hunting to accumulate spirit stones.

No matter what, hanging out with the older brothers and sisters in the family at least means safety and you don’t have to worry about being stabbed in the back by your companions.

Then, she ran to her father and said, "Dad, I want to go hunting in the mountains with my seventh cousin and the others. Please give me some spirit stones so I can buy some talismans, pills, and self-defense medicine."

Lu Songyuan frowned, "With your mediocre fighting skills, you're going to feed the monsters in the mountains?"

Lu Xinyu: "It's precisely because my fighting skills are not good enough that I need to practice more. Don't worry, you won't be in danger of your life if you follow my seventh cousin and the others. Prepare some talismans, and the monsters won't be able to get close to me."

Lu Songyuan glared at her, "What kind of fighting skills can you achieve by hitting with talismans?"

Lu Xinyu: "Talismans are used at critical moments. It's better to have more on hand to feel more at ease."

After talking for a long time, he finally got five thousand spirit stones from Lu Songyuan.

Lu Xinyu happily put away the spirit stones, and her small treasury increased a little.

Besides, Xiao Han saw that Badou was asleep, so she didn't dare to disturb him or practice with him, for fear of robbing the spiritual energy in the room and affecting Badou's absorption of spiritual energy during his advancement.

After thinking about it, she decided to go for a walk on the street and try to find a way to sell the Qingmu Jue in her hand.

This technique was obtained thanks to the Golden-Winged Roc, who picked it up from the storage bag of that unlucky Foundation Establishment cultivator.

A yellow-grade martial arts book would sell for 300,000 to 400,000 spirit stones in the New Moon City Treasure Hunting Pavilion. I wonder how much it would sell for here. Of course, Xiao Han definitely couldn't sell it at the store's price, so if he could get a 20% discount, that would be great.

Xiao Han used to wonder why no one made a large number of copies of the martial arts books and sold them. It was not until she got this martial arts jade slip that she understood that the real martial arts books contained dynamic pictures of the routes of spiritual energy flow and the methods of operation and refining.

This kind of picture makes it easy to understand and learn without making mistakes. Remember, if you make a mistake in practicing the exercises, it is very likely to cause damage to the meridians.

Only a Jindan cultivator can print this kind of dynamic image in a jade slip.

Therefore, if a foundation-building cultivator wants to sell a technique by copying it out with a written explanation, basically no one will buy it.

Xiao Han wandered around the streets for a while and realized it would be difficult to get a good price for her goods since she was unfamiliar with the area. Finally, she thought of the local Lu Xinyu.

After the two of them broke up that time, Lu Xinyu sent her a sound transmission note, asking her out for tea.

However, Xiao Han didn't want to go out and waste time, so he refused on the grounds that he was in seclusion practicing.

So she took out the sound transmission note to make an appointment with Lu Xinyu.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xinyu sent her a message back, telling her that he was hunting in the Panlong Mountains and would contact her after returning to the city.

Xiao Han was bored, so he bought a lot of snacks and spiritual fruits on the street.

I was just about to go into the restaurant and order two signature dishes to enjoy myself, but then I felt that it would be boring to eat alone without Ba Dou's company.

I might as well go for a walk outside the city, catch some low-level monsters, collect some low-level spiritual herbs, bring them back and sell them in exchange for some spiritual stones for food and drink, so as to avoid always living off my old capital.

Then, Xiao Han thought about how he wasn't familiar with the terrain outside Canghai City and didn't know where high-level monsters would appear. It seemed like a meeting with Lu Xinyu was really necessary.

Finally, Xiao Han bought a map of the area around Canghai City and headed straight to the Panlong Mountains.

Since Lu Xinyu, a Qi-cultivating cultivator, dares to wander around here, it means that there will definitely not be any high-level monsters appearing in the outer areas of this mountain range.

After concealing his cultivation level to the ninth level of Qi training, Xiao Han controlled the flying sword and began to fly at a low altitude, shuttling through the mountains and forests.

Without the traitor Badou scouting from high altitude and tipping off people, Xiao Han could only rely on himself to slowly search for monsters that were worth some money.

The Lu family members who were also in the Panlong Mountains were being chased by a fourth-level demon pig.

Previously, they threw out several talismans that were comparable to the attack of a foundation-building cultivator, but they only caused minor damage to the demon pig.

Even with the help of high-level lightening talismans, how could a few people outrun a fourth-level demon pig?

Seeing that the demon pig was getting closer, the leader Lu Jia Qilang immediately called everyone to stop.

"Don't run away, hurry up and help defend with the Tianluo Umbrella, then immediately send a message to the family and ask them to send someone to rescue us."

After saying that, Lu Qilang took out a golden umbrella-shaped magic weapon.

This kind of defensive magic weapon can also be used by Qi-cultivating monks, but it consumes a lot of spiritual power to keep it running.
