Earthly Deity Chapter 55

He didn’t know how long had passed, but Mo Wuji suddenly opened his eyes. He seemed to feel that his cultivation had entered a bottleneck and there was no way to continue anymore. It was clearly written in that Qi Practising Foundation, “Spiritual Qi infuses the body, Spiritual Vessel penetrates, the first layer is complete.

He could easily feel the great aura infusing his body, only that what he had passed through was not a spirit complex but a vein.

This was the first layer of vein opening? Mo Wuji looked at his hands in amazement, then he smelled a faint rancid odour.

This was the impurities excreted by the body, Mo Wuji understood what was going on at the first moment.

Sure enough, it was the first layer of Vein Expansion, he had just met a bottleneck in his cultivation. However, Mo Wuji knew exactly what was going on, it wasn’t that he couldn’t cultivate, it was because he was progressing too fast and had only penetrated three veins himself, causing a bottleneck.

This bottleneck to other cultivators would mean that they had to penetrate a new spirit chakra in order to continue advancing. As for him, he would have to continue refining the Vein Opening Medicinal Liquid and then look for a place where a lightning source was located to help. In the future, he would be able to progress as much as his veins could penetrate.

“Haha ……” Mo Wuji laughed up to the sky, cultivation was nothing more than that, so simple. He felt a little hungry, but not so hungry that he couldn’t walk. Mo Wuji estimated that he had only been cultivating for a day or so at most, and in a day or so, he had stepped into the first level of Pulse Expansion, what else could make him more elated than this?

Mo Wuji hurriedly rushed into the washroom and cleaned his entire body. After he changed into clean clothes, his body was refreshed. At this time, he felt like he could swallow a cow, although his stomach was hungry, he was just as relaxed. Not only was his body relaxed, even his mind became extraordinarily relaxed.

With just one gentle step, he could step out a long way. Perhaps this was what Cold Ning was talking about when he said that it became extremely easy between walks, and his body became extremely flexible as well.

Whether his cultivation was the same as others or not, Mo Wuji decided to just continue cultivating like this.

The Immortal Mortal Technique really deserved the name, at this time, even if someone exchanged his Immortal Mortal Technique with a better technique, Mo Wuji would not agree.

No, he wasn’t the only one who cultivated this Qi Practising Foundation, so why was this technique rubbish in the eyes of others, but a truly immortal level in his case?

Could it be because he had opened up a meridian which was a chakra and not a spirit chakra, but what exactly was the difference between a chakra and a spirit chakra?

Mo Wuji couldn’t figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it. Existence means reason, if he couldn’t figure it out now, who could be sure that he wouldn’t be able to figure it out in the future?

Opening the door, Mo Wuji thought that Shen Ren would definitely ask him why he stayed inside the room for such a long time, what Mo Wuji didn’t expect was that Shen Ren wasn’t even outside.

Mo Wuji touched his nose, dare I say that he had made a fool of himself. There was still more than a month to go before the Leaping Immortal Sect Assembly opened, Mo Wuji decided to go out and purchase medicinal materials before continuing to refine the Vein Expansion Medicinal Liquid.

Although he was a Mortal Root, he thought that he could cultivate and his speed wasn’t slow. If he wanted to speed up his cultivation, he naturally had to continue to go and open up new veins. With only three veins, he was still far from being able to do so.

“You’re going out?” Mo Wuji had just opened the guest room door when the door to Shen Ren’s room on his right opened.

Mo Wuji thought to himself that he had been cultivating inside for a day or two, Shen Ren wouldn’t have cultivated for a day or two as well, right?

“Yes, I’m going out to purchase some medicinal herbs ……” Mo Wuji said here, and suddenly thought that if he was going to refine medicines, he would naturally need a medicine refining machine. Right now, the gold coins he had on him weren’t much, plus the prices in the Imperial Capital were definitely more expensive than the Cheng Yu Kingdom.

“Can you lend me some gold coins, if I can’t use them all I will definitely return them to you.” There was nothing Mo Wuji was embarrassed about when it came to his own cultivation endeavours.

Shen Ren blankly glanced at Mo Wuji, “When I said I would give you rent, you said no.”

Mo Wuji rubbed his hands together and said, “Naturally forget about the rent, I’m going to purchase medicinal herbs this time, if I can’t use up all the gold coins I’ll return it to you.”

Shen Ren’s face inexplicably reddened and she stammered a little as she spoke, “That, I don’t have any money right now, when the Leaping Immortal Sect Assembly opens, I’ll have it.”

Mo Wuji looked at Shen Ren with wide eyes, “You don’t have any money? Then you said you’d give me rent when you came in? Could it be that you swindled me?”

Shen Ren’s face was even more embarrassed, “I have taught you many of the most basic things in cultivation, and these are enough to mortgage the rent.”

Mo Wuji finally realised that this woman’s claim of giving him rent was a complete lie. If he really wanted rent, she would definitely have a different set of words.

As if she knew that Mo Wuji had understood that she was lying to him, Shen Ren lowered her head and said, “It was because I didn’t have any rent that I had no choice but to move out, I ……”

Shen Ren did move out because she didn’t have any rent, the reason why she came back again was because she knew that there were two rooms in this guest house, and she wanted to find the landlord to communicate with him, that is, to rent her one room first, so that when the Leaping Immortal Sect Assembly opened, she would be able to get the money and then pay double the rent.

Later on, when she saw that Mo Wuji was unable to cultivate, she simply did her best to teach Mo Wuji to cultivate. According to normal reasoning, at that time, Mo Wuji would definitely be too embarrassed to continue asking her for rent.

The truth was pretty much as she expected, Mo Wuji didn’t ask her for rent and even thanked her. How could she have known that Mo Wuji would ask her to borrow money today? If she knew that Mo Wuji would ask her to borrow money, she definitely wouldn’t have opened the door at this time.

However, there was nothing she could do about it, she was really hungry and couldn’t stand it anymore.

“Gu Gu ……” A rumbling sound came from Shen Ren’s stomach and Mo Wuji subconsciously looked down.

Shen Ren’s pretty face had completely risen into a big red colour, she hadn’t eaten since she had lived in. She had been keeping an eye on this Mo Wuji’s room, and after hearing Mo Wuji open the door, she knew that Mo Wuji must have gone to eat, so she wanted to follow behind to dabble in a meal.

“You don’t even have money for dinner, right?” Mo Wuji slapped her forehead speechlessly, this was the first time she had met a woman who used the money she had on her to the point where she had difficulty even eating. If this woman originally didn’t have any money, and was the same as Smokey with him back then, then it would be fine. The fact that this woman lived in Tian Luo Restaurant, it was definitely not a matter of not having any money, but having money being spent by her without any calculation at all.

Shen Ren was even more embarrassed, so she raised her head and said, ”That’s right, I do indeed have no money left, and I was about to ask you to borrow money to go out to eat. If you are willing to lend it to me, in the future, you can ask me anytime you have questions about your cultivation.”

Mo Wuji said feebly, “Let’s go, let’s go eat.”

He was originally going to ask Shen Ren to borrow money, but now he also had to lend money to Shen Ren, and even had to invite Shen Ren for dinner, what kind of thing was this. People really can’t just look at appearances, this is the famous saying.

……

“Don’t worry, I will definitely double it back to you.” The two of them left Tian Luo Restaurant to look for food, Shen Ren saw Mo Wuji fretting a bit and thought that Mo Wuji was worried about money, instead, she spoke out to comfort him.

Mo Wuji waved his hand, “No need, I can afford this amount of money.”

What he was worried about was that even if he could refine the Vein Opening Medicinal Liquid again, how would he find a place to quench his meridian veins? His veins were the ones that needed lightning strikes to penetrate.

“But you look as if you have something on your mind?” Shen Ren asked suspiciously.

Mo Wuji didn’t bother to answer Shen Ren and pointed at a restaurant in front of him, “Let’s go in and eat, I still have things to do after dinner.”
