The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

What Lu Xinyu was worried about was just a safe route and having enough helpers to deal with emergencies.

After all, it is not easy to deal with a flying monster bird when you are driving a flying boat alone.

If you have a flying boat to travel, and find a cultivator who is familiar with the route to partner with, you can reach Crescent City safely and quickly.

However, low-level flying boats seem to be only available at auctions, and you can’t get them just by wanting them.

Then, Lu Xinyu deliberately raised his voice to the two Qigong cultivators who were discussing the low-level flying boats, saying, "Excuse me, fellow Daoists, but I'd like to ask, where can I buy the low-level flying boats that even Qigong cultivators can control in Xingyao City?"

When the two of them took one look, they realized that this handsome male cultivator was clearly a girl in disguise.

Well, there's really no need to speak in such a hoarse voice.

But this was none of their business, so one of the two tea drinkers said, "I heard that Wanbaolou has it for sale now."

Another person also said: "In the past, it was only available at auctions. Now, more of it has been refined, so there is no need to rush to the auction to grab it."

Lu Xinyu thanked the two men, asked for the address of Wanbaolou, and then went straight there.

Since Wanbaolou had the audacity to use such a grand name, it must have a lot of good stuff inside. But Lu Xinyu had no interest in looking for anything else. As soon as she entered, she asked the waiter, "Do you have any low-level flying instruments for Qigong cultivators?"

The waiter nodded immediately and said, "Yes, please follow me."

He took Lu Xinyu to the second floor.

Wanbao Tower has a wide variety of low-level flying magic tools. This is due to the fact that Xingyao City is close to Juxian Sect. After Juxian Sect has refined a large number of low-level flying magic tools, they naturally have the advantage of being close to the city.

Lu Xinyu asked about the price.

The price of a single-person flying boat is 40,000, and the price of a double-person flying boat is 60,000.

According to the plan, she finally chose a low-level flying boat for two people.

The waiter at Wanbaolou carefully taught her how to fly the flying boat and even took her to the backyard to practice it.

Lu Xinyu found that this flying boat was really easy to control, and immediately paid the spirit stones happily.

She had ridden on her father's flying sword and the family's large spaceship many times before, but the feeling was completely different from driving it herself.

Then, she went to the bulletin board for posting tasks in Xingyao City and posted a passenger information.

The general content was that she had a two-person flying boat and wanted to find a cultivator to accompany her to Crescent Moon City. The travel expenses could be discussed in person.

Then, less than half an hour after the mission was issued, a monk came to the inn to look for her.

The visitor was a female cultivator at the seventh level of Qi training. Upon seeing Lu Xinyu, dressed as a man, she was taken aback for a moment, then feigned ignorance and said, "Fellow Daoist, I'd like to ask, how much does it cost to ride your flying boat?"

Lu Xinyu asked, "Have you ever been to Crescent City?"

The female cultivator rolled her eyes and said, "Of course I have been there."

Lu Xinyu suddenly said, "Go away, you are not suitable."

The female cultivator asked curiously, "What do you mean? Why am I not suitable?"

In fact, Lu Xinyu just relied on her innate feeling to feel that this person was not suitable to deal with.

But she couldn't tell the truth, so she made up a lie, "I need a companion with higher cultivation."

The female cultivator argued a few times, but seeing that she was determined, she had no choice but to leave.

As soon as she left the inn and turned into an alley, she said to the people waiting there, "Send someone else. The other party thinks my cultivation level is too low."

Then Lu Xinyu met with several more people, but still couldn't find anyone she felt was suitable. She could only find various excuses and rejected them all.

It was not until the beginning of the You period, when Lu Xinyu thought that she would not be able to find a suitable person today, that a male cultivator in the late ninth level of Qi training came.

This was a burly young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. When he saw that the person who posted the message was a young woman disguised as a man, he immediately frowned, thinking that there was no hope for him.

Lu Xinyu still asked: "Fellow Daoist, have you ever been to Xinyue City?"

The burly male cultivator shook his head, "No."

Lu Xinyu was immediately disappointed. She felt that this person was good and could be a possible companion, but the other party had never been there and was not familiar with the route, so it would definitely not work.

Before she could say anything, the male cultivator seemed to understand something and said, "I have a map to New Moon City."

Lu Xinyu's eyes suddenly lit up. With her innate intuition, she knew that this person was probably not lying.

"Okay, but you have to pay 5,000 spirit stones for the journey."

The price of five thousand spirit stones was set by her after careful consideration. It was within the affordable range of Qi training cultivators and would not make her flying boat seem cheap.

The burly male cultivator agreed to the price without much thought.

Since they were about to become companions, the burly man bowed and introduced himself: "My name is Ye Guchen."

Lu Xinyu returned the greeting and said with a smile, "I'll tell Fellow Daoist Ye my name tomorrow when we're on the road."

She stayed in the inn under a pseudonym and didn't want anyone to know her real name before leaving Xingyao City.

The two agreed to meet at the city gate at the beginning of the next morning.

The next morning, Lu Xinyu met Ye Guchen at the city gate as promised.

He simply took out five jade tokens with a face value of one thousand spirit stones, and Lu Xinyu put them in his pocket without hesitation.

Then, she took out a palm-sized stone-blue flying boat, injected spiritual power into it, and threw it upwards.

The flying boat then turned into a flat boat about seven feet long and a little over two feet wide.

Lu Xinyu jumped onto the front of the flying boat and said to Ye Guchen who was standing beside him, "Fellow Daoist Ye, come up."

Ye Guchen also jumped up.

The flying boat slowly rose into the air and then flew towards Crescent City.

This speed is not much different from that of a cultivator running at full speed with a light body talisman, but one is running in a mountain covered with weeds, bushes, dense forests and rocks, while the other is flying straight in the vast sky. After a long time, the distance between the two is more than just a little bit.

Lu Xinyu just didn't have a specific safe route map, but she knew where Crescent City was.

She then said to Ye Guchen, "My name is Lu Xinyu. I'd like to ask Daoist Ye to direct the rest of the route. However, I will arrange when to stop and rest. Is Daoist Ye willing?"

The two men's cultivation levels were similar. One directed the route, while the other decided the time for the flying boat to land and rest. This prevented the possibility of the other party setting an ambush along the way.

Ye Guchen would naturally not refuse and told the correct route.

The flying boat was flying steadily, and Lu Xinyu stuffed three spirit stones into a recess.

These three spirit stones can only allow the flying boat to fly for half an hour. Once the time is up, the spiritual energy of the spirit stones in the depression will be completely extracted, and new spirit stones must be replaced.

After the installation was completed, Lu Xinyu saw Ye Guchen sitting cross-legged at the stern of the flying boat, staring at her. Thinking that a single man and a single woman would have to live together day and night for five or six days, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
