The other party may have many cultivation methods, but they definitely can't be taken now.
She must be brought to judgment and become a maid before anything else.
But when Xiao Yu thought about the system's tricks and Bai Yue's personality, he couldn't help but smile. He could increase her Sin Value again.
He really went to catch a wild chicken.
In less than half an hour, half a roast chicken was stuffed into Bai Yue's hand.
Xiao Yu also brought some water in a cut bamboo joint.
Looking at the blind Bai Yue, he unreservedly took her hand and placed it on the bamboo joint: "This is water!"
Bai Yue instinctively tugged at her collar.
She didn't know if he was peeking at her, after all, she couldn't see.
Smelling the aroma of meat in front of her, she seemed to recall her time in the Jade Maiden Sect.
Xiao Yu sat beside her, eating while holding an Eagle-Claw Blade, and asked, "Let's put the cultivation methods aside for now. I want to ask some basics. I'm not very familiar with immortal cultivation because in the year I joined the Sect of Harmonious Union, I spent eight months as a menial disciple. I've been an outer disciple for less than four months and don't even have a master!
I want to ask, why can't I use magical artifacts? Those guys can control flying knives from a distance, why can't I?"
Bai Yue took a bite of the roast chicken, looking helpless: "Well... you're in the Body Tempering Stage. It's the first step in immortal cultivation. To put it simply, Body Tempering Stage is just a slightly more skilled mortal, without magical power, so you can't use the power of magical artifacts or spells!"
You can only use movement techniques, inner power, weapons, and tools!
The Body Tempering Stage is about enhancing your physique. Only after opening up your meridians can you attempt to draw in spiritual qi. Once you draw spiritual qi into your body, you enter the Qi Refining Stage, and that's when you can use spells..."
As Bai Yue spoke, she tried a bite of the roast meat in her hand.
The texture was very dry and tasteless.
When she was a sect master, she ate delicacies and drank celestial nectar.
After chewing a couple of times, she found it hard to swallow.
But thinking of her deceased disciples, she forced the meat down her throat.
Currently, her cultivation is at the second layer of the Body Tempering Stage, but to heal her injuries, she needs elixirs and resources.
She certainly couldn't get them herself, so she had to rely on him.
She had to keep him stable for now!
She didn't know why, but she remembered those eight hours from yesterday vividly.
Her hair was tied up.
It seemed she had somewhat resigned herself.
She was still a bit scared. Whenever she scolded him, Xiao Yu would retaliate.
She was truly afraid.
After taking another bite of meat, she spoke softly.
"Above the Qi Refining Stage are the Foundation Establishment Stage, the Golden Core Stage, and the Elemental Infant Stage!
But that's too far for you. If you want to cultivate, finding those methods now is useless. You need to start with Body Tempering, honing your body! You must find a low-level spell for body refinement!
You have to start from the beginning! Only by laying a solid foundation can you have better magical power in the later Foundation Establishment Stage!
I just thought about it, and giving you a cultivation method now is useless. You need to reach the Qi Refining Stage before you can start cultivating!"
[Detected that the Vicious Maiden Bai Yue received food but didn't give the host a cultivation method reward, and even deceived him. Sin Value increased to 72%!]
Xiao Yu's lips curled up. He knew how to increase her Sin Value.
That was to treat her a bit better. After all, she was a vicious maiden; when others treated her well, she would still harm them.
Xiao Yu continued eating roast meat while looking at her: "Then help me with Body Tempering!"
Bai Yue was momentarily stunned, then stammered: "Body Tempering can't be helped by others... you have to do it yourself..."
Xiao Yu smirked: "How did you do your Body Tempering before? Don't you want to restore your cultivation? How do you plan to do it?"
Bai Yue's voice was a bit panicked: "I... I was born with an Innate Dao Body, never tempered my body... To temper the body, you need to exercise it and also need alchemical ingredients and elixirs. For me, it might take one or two years slowly, or a few months quickly. For you... it might take longer!"
Xiao Yu squinted his eyes.
He had just seen the mention of Body Tempering in the Harmonious Union Technique.
The Body Tempering method in the Harmonious Union Technique was very quick, but it required two people working in harmony!
Xiao Yu picked up the Harmonious Union Technique again, looking at the description, and felt it was a bit challenging.
Bai Yue, across from him, was momentarily annoyed, exhaling: "What are you looking at?!"
Seeing her dare to speak loudly, Xiao Yu immediately slapped her.
"Slap—!"
Bai Yue glared angrily with her blind eyes.
Bai Yue was scared, instinctively clutching her clothes.
But despite what she said, she felt extremely unwilling in her heart.
How could she be treated like this by him?
Hadn't she already spoken nicely to him?
Why did he still hit her at the slightest disagreement...
Xiao Yu pondered beside her.
He directly pulled Bai Yue into his embrace.
Bai Yue, with a flushed face, wiped her mouth and whispered: "You said you wanted to leave here before. Actually, you should head west!
We're at the westernmost part of Hexi Prefecture. To the west and south are the sea, to the east is Donghua Prefecture, and to the north is Heluo Prefecture. If you escape east from here, you'll definitely be caught by the righteous cultivators!"
Xiao Yu's voice was low as he pulled Bai Yue closer: "Didn't you say the west is the sea?"
Bai Yue's eyebrows trembled: "Yes, you can take the water route south to Nanhua Prefecture in the south of Hexi Prefecture. There's no war there. If you go east by land, it's a dead end!"
Cangyue Continent's Nine Prefectures Map
Xiao Yu's expression was somber; he didn't trust the route she mentioned.
Yesterday, they were gathering herbs nearby and encountered the Profound Spirit Sect.
Had the battle reached their doorstep?
Did the Sect of Harmonious Union destroy the Jade Maiden Sect, only to be beaten down by the Profound Spirit Sect?
Xiao Yu stood up, feeling a bit helpless: "This is too troublesome."
Bai Yue exhaled slowly: "With the war so tense now, even great cultivation clans need to have their identities verified at checkpoints. Someone like you, with an unclear background, is very likely to have their soul extracted! Then your identity as someone from the Demon Province will be exposed!"
Xiao Yu leisurely drank from the bamboo bucket.
He raised his hand, intending to send Bai Yue to the Judgment Chamber.
Xiao Yu looked outside the forest, his expression thoughtful.
He didn't dare go up the mountain; who knew how far those guys had fought?
Looking at Riverflow City in the distance, Xiao Yu's eyes darkened: "Let's go take a look at Riverflow City!"
