“Under the bridge in front of the gate, a group of ducks swam past…” Early in the morning, the rough voice that sounded like the howling of beasts sounded from Wang You Peak. Its voice spread throughout the entire mountain after being amplified.

After the song, the low-level disciples of the Sect got up one after another and went to their morning class with a green face.

Everyone in Qing Yun Mountain also started their day because of the song. However, if one were to observe carefully, one would find that no matter how far away the morning class was, people would rather take a flying sword and make a big circle than to fly past Wang You Peak.

This was already the fourth month since Qi Huan came to Qing Yun Mountain. Every time she recalled the days before time traveling, Qi Huan would feel like everything was just a dream.

Her days of practicing cultivation were very relaxed. All she needed to do every day was to get up before dawn, mobilize the ling qi in her body, and completely even out the ling qi she had absorbed overnight.

With the improvement of the ling qi in her body, Qi Huan could also feel it flowing slowly in her body during the day, but what surprised her was that her dantian seemed a little different from what Xu Kong Zi described.

Xu Kong Zi said that in the early stages, the ling qi was distributed in the form of gas throughout the dantian area, as well as in the bones, flesh and veins. But when Qi Huan viewed her inner self, she discovered that although the ling qi in her dantian was in gaseous form, it was not simply just that, but it had formed a faint Taiji pattern.

After several days of observation, Qi Huan also discovered that this Taiji pattern could absorb the ling qi of heaven and earth on its own. Although it was absorbed at a slower speed, it was still very efficient. The only downside was that the ling qi absorbed by the Taiji pattern was not allocated to Qi Huan at all.

Even the ling qi she absorbed from sleeping every night had to be divided into half for the Taiji pattern.

If it weren’t for this, Qi Huan felt that she could easily reach the middle stage of cultivation by now. But now, in order to improve her cultivation level as soon as possible, she had to go to bed several hours in advance.

Before time traveling, Qi Huan was a famous stay-at-home girl. She never went to bed before midnight. Now, for the sake of cultivation, she had played several games of chess with the Duke of Zhou even before the day turned dark. Sighs, this is all for cultivation!

TN: Duke Zhao is the son of King Wen of Zhou.

Even though Qi Huan had worked so hard, every time she wandered around in the Sect during the day, she could still feel countless resentful eyes towards her, scanning her like X-rays. After all, other people didn’t have night spirits abilities in their bodies. Most of them practiced for twenty hours a day, totally unable to sleep as much as Qi Huan who slept for three hours daily. Whoever could accept this? If it weren’t for Qi Huan’s overwhelming status, she would have been beaten by those people long ago.

In the beginning, Qi Huan was extremely unable to adapt to such ferocious gazes, but Xu Kong Zi said that a cultivator who was not envied by others, was not a successful cultivator. From then on, Qi Huan walked around in Qing Yun Mountain with her waist straightened and confident steps. In any case, she was also a successful cultivator. Everyone had their own pathway, she would just let them be jealous of her!

On this day, Qi Huan absorbed her ling qi as before. However, she faintly felt that the Taiji pattern in the dantian was a bit unstable, but it was clearer than before. According to her analysis, this should be a sign of a breakthrough.

Xu Kong Zi once said to Qi Huan that what set the difference between a real cultivator and a mortal was the middle stages of cultivation. A cultivator at the early stage of zhuji was the so-called congenital masters in the mortal world. These congenital masters were superior in terms of physical strength and meridian development, but they were still much worse in the eyes of celestials.

Once achieving the middle stage of zhuji, the cultivator could learn the most basic five-element spells, and he or she could also use some low-level magic tools. But in order to fly, one must reach the initial stage of ning qi. Therefore, Qi Huan was still very motivated to practice. Mankind had struggled for hundreds of years to dream of flying. Wasn’t she also following in the footsteps of her predecessors!

“Senior Uncle, Great Senior Uncle, please come to the Tai Qing Palace.” Qi Huan saw his other Junior Nephew when she walked out of the house. Ling Yun Zi stood respectfully outside the door. His long hair was meticulously combed into a bun, and his sturdy figure couldn’t be concealed even under a big robe.

Ling Yun Zi was a great person. Before five hundred years old, he had already achieved the yuan ying stage, and his strength was a little bit stronger than his senior brother Ling Feng Zi. The two of them were more than two hundred years apart. However, he was a little boring. Every time Qi Huan would be the one to speak a lot, and he would only reply to her with a single syllable.

However, Qi Huan still admired the level of that man whom she had no fate with. Both Ling Feng Zi and Ling Yun Zi were handsome. Except for the fact that they were a little older than her, they were still very attractive.

“Senior Uncle?” Seeing Qi Huan staring at himself for such a long time, Ling Yun Zi couldn’t help speaking out.

“Oh, go, go right away.” Qi Huan touched the corners of her mouth embarrassedly, thanking herself for not drooling.

Before reaching the Tai Qing Palace, Qi Huan noticed that something was wrong in the mountain gate today. The disciples of the inner sect who were rarely seen normally, could be spotted almost everywhere. It was rumoured that even the old folks who usually stay hidden, came out today.

“Senior Nephew, did another ancient monster accidentally come into our place?” Qi Huan asked very curiously.

“…Great Senior Uncle is transitioning today.” Ling Yun Zi pursed his lips and replied very reluctantly.

“…The Great Senior Uncle you mean is my shifu?” Qi Huan was shocked. Why didn’t anyone notify her of such an important matter?!

Ling Yun Zi rolled his eyes at Qi Huan, and said nothing. She didn’t even know that her shifu was going to transition today. Fortunately, he didn’t have such an apprentice, otherwise he would have slapped the person to death.

“But…why is the entire mountain strictly guarded just because my shifu is going to transition?”

“Mount Shu, Kunlun, Taihang, more than ten sect leaders will lead their disciples to observe the ceremony.”

“Junior Nephew, my stomach hurts, I’ll have to go first.” Qi Huan’s expression changed suddenly. She turned and ran.

Only

“Hold it.” It seemed that Qi Huan’s behavior had been expected long ago. Ling Yun Zi didn’t even turn his head. He just stretched out his right arm and did some gesture, then a red light flew out and enveloped Qi Huan into a rice dumpling.

“Hey! Let me go! You will be condemned by heaven!” Qi Huan cursed him in grief.

“I’m at least a thousand years before transition. There’s no need to rush.” Ling Yun Zi briskly pulled Qi Huan forward.

Qi Huan cried and howled, “Junior Nephew, let me go, my fragile body can’t bear being tossed around like this!”

“Life is more than that.” Ling Yun Zi paused. When he thought of the upcoming ceremony, his face couldn’t help darkened partially. If he could, he also didn’t want to go.

In fact, there was a reason Qi Huan was triggered. Two months ago, she followed Ling Feng Zi to Mount Shu to see an elder who was transitioning. She thought it would take up to two hours for the ceremony to take place, but after entering the observatory, Qi Huan stood there for four days without eating, drinking or sleeping.

In the end, that man finally succeeded. Qi Huan was already mummified due to the lack of water, and finally she was taken back by Ling Feng Zi. She had no idea who proposed that stupid rule that said no one was allowed to leave the observatory during the transitioning process. Everything was forbidden: no talking, no eating, no sleeping, no…In short, it was as if one had to act dead.
