Socially awkward female cultivator survives in the cultivation world through online games

She once again devoted herself to cultivation, and perhaps it was the opening of another meridian that made the flow of spiritual energy within her body even smoother.

Like a bolt of lightning ripped across the sky, she broke through to the seventh level of Qi Refining at an astonishing speed. The speed of her advancement was so fast that it was like a rocket soaring into the sky.

However, despite being filled with joy after the breakthrough, she did not develop any pride whatsoever. Instead, she focused her attention on stabilizing her spiritual power, which had become slightly chaotic due to the breakthrough.

Like a skilled craftsman, she meticulously combed through each strand of spiritual energy, gradually restoring them to peace and order, working tirelessly through the entire night.

Day after day, she maintained this restrained yet steadfast state of cultivation, immersing herself wholeheartedly in the world of cultivation during the day and entering the game world at night to acquire those precious cultivation resources.

Time flies like an arrow, and more than ten days and nights have passed quietly. With her persistent efforts, her cultivation level has finally climbed to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

She was only one step away from reaching the Foundation Establishment realm she had always dreamed of, but this time, she didn't rush to continue cultivating; instead, she stopped.

Because at that very moment, her spiritual field welcomed someone she had never expected.

She stared in surprise at Ouyang Qiao standing in front of her, a deep sense of doubt welling up inside her.

Why would this person come looking for her? What does he want with her?

Ouyang Qiao stared at her silently for a full quarter of an hour, without uttering a single word.

This unusual behavior made Chu Yunyi unable to suppress her curiosity any longer, and she couldn't help but ask.

"Senior Brother Ouyang, is there something you need from me?"

She looked at Ouyang Qiao with a puzzled expression, wondering to herself, what's going on with this guy? He clearly came to see her, but he's been keeping silent. What is he trying to do?

Ouyang Qiao simply watched her quietly, his eyes seemingly containing endless profound meaning, making him unfathomable.

"You've reached the ninth level of Qi Refining?"

A look of shock flashed in Ouyang Qiao's already deep eyes, as if he had seen an unbelievable spectacle.

He usually prided himself on his rapid cultivation speed, after all, he had found an extremely ingenious way to unblock his meridians, which made his cultivation level improve rapidly.

But now, this Junior Sister Chu's cultivation speed is even faster than his, which makes him feel a complex emotion that is hard to describe. There is a bit of envy, and a hint of resentment.

"Yes, that's right. By the way, is there something you need from me?"

Chu Yunyi looked at Ouyang Qiao in this state and felt somewhat helpless. She had indeed cultivated too fast, but could he please tell her what he wanted to see her about? She was in a hurry to cultivate.

"Um... it's like this, we formed a small team, and each of us took on two herb-gathering quests. These quests are relatively simple, but they are all individual quests, not the kind that require teamwork to complete."

But we can choose to do this mission together. After all, it's going to the outer edge of the Jade Stream Forest, and it's a bit dangerous to go alone. That's why I thought of you. I wonder if you would be willing to come with us?

Ouyang Qiao looked at her, a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Ouyang Qiao finally revealed the real matter: it turned out to be a sect mission.

Chu Yunyi checked the system time and noticed that there were only five days left in the month, and she did indeed have two tasks to complete.
