"Six" is just a participation prize; "One" cannot possibly be another participation prize, right?
If that Heaven-defying Book dares to give her another "participation prize", Xin Lin is ready to eat the dice.
Xin Lin looks eagerly, watching over the Human-level Future Book.
"Congratulations to the life master, you’ve won an encouragent prize, a Mortal dicinal recipe."
On the Future Book, a line of text appeared belatedly, followed by a flash of golden light.
Xin Lin’s hand now held a thin piece of paper, inscribed with the words "Ultimate Marrow Cleansing Powder".
Xin Lin sighed.
"A dicinal recipe cost 20 Heaven-defying Value, how many Ah Piao must I seal, how many Bai You from the Sikong family must I kick and punch to make up for it."
Xin Lin glanced at the recipe, discovering that to make this Bone Marrow Cleansing Powder, one would need to refine seven or eight dicinal ingredients. After using the Ultimate Marrow Cleansing Powder, one could clear the ridians, which would greatly benefit a Martial Artist’s cultivation.
Clearing the ridians sparked a light in Xin Lin’s eyes; her Five ridians were all destroyed. Although she had True Qi in her body due to the Fu Tian Pill, that True Qi was very capricious. After the Heaven-defying Book absorbed the Fu Tian Pill, it simply played a ga of hide-and-seek.
In Xin Lin’s Dantian, it was still empty to date, likely due to the destruction of her Five ridians.
After becoming "Longteng Xin Lin", she ca to understand so common knowledge about Longteng Country.
The so-called Five ridians of a Martial Artist consist of the Heart ridian, Liver ridian, Spleen ridian, Lung ridian, and Kidney ridian. These Five ridians connect to the Dantian, allowing True Qi to run through the entire body, giving rise to the Xuanwu Practitioner Body.
Xin Lin opened her eyes, and it was already evening, the sun setting in the west.
She looked at the dicinal recipe in her hand. She had studied dical Skill with an old practitioner, mastering the Four Diagnostic thods, and she recognized all the nas of traditional Chinese dicines.
"Coix Seed, reed root, and six other herbs are easy to find, just purchase from the city or pick them up along the way. But what on earth is Red Toad Shell?"
Xin Lin held the recipe in deep thought, it seems that the dical system of Longteng had so differences from traditional Eastern dicine.
"I know where you can find Red Toad Shell. Just take to Purple Cloud City, and I’ll show you where."
Headless Ah Piao erged from the grass nearby.
It wore a large lotus leaf on its head and had dust all over its nose and face, looking rather comical.
"How did you know I wanted to go to Purple Cloud City?"
Xin Lin said casually, the little ghost certainly had so determination.
"That Sikong Ran bullied you, and you want revenge; you must cultivate. To beco a Cultivator, besides being recruited by various powers, the only thod is to participate in the Zixiao Palace Exam in Purple Cloud City. There’s an examination on every August 15th. Passing the Imperial Examination can make you a primary cultivation target of the Royal family, bringing many benefits."
Headless Ah Piao spoke earnestly, looking quite confident for a small ghost.
For the children of Sect Families, the little Dragon Ascension Hall examination is trivial.
But for countless poor family children in Longteng Country, it is a different story.
As long as one is over eight years old, they can take part in the examination, testing for Xuan Root and Spirit Root. As long as one excels, they will rise rapidly in status, a truly great opportunity.
"In her lifeti, my mother said, ’A gentleman’s revenge is not too late even after ten years. Xin Lin is not a commoner; once the storm arrives, she transforms into a dragon.’"
The voice of headless Ah Piao was immature, but as the saying goes, "A thousand complints may go unnoticed, but flattery never does"—who doesn’t like to hear nice words. Xin Lin, frustrated by the Heaven-defying Book, found Ah Piao’s sweet flattery quite to her taste.
Xin Lin curled her lips.
"Since you told about the Zixiao Palace Exam, I’ll take you with on the journey. But before that, first tell where I can find the Red Toad Shell."
