Chapter 6
Innate Fitness Saint Body, Perfect Meal
That night
Li Xijun was quite satisfied with her accommodation when she returned home.
It has a kitchen, a bedroom, a bathroom, and a spacious balcony for practicing martial arts. Smart home appliances are also provided. The price of 1,500 yuan a month is reasonable, which is better than the rental house in my previous life.
What pleased him even more was the speed of logistics in this martial arts world.
Not long after he got home and rested, a biomimetic bird-shaped drone landed on his balcony.
When you pick up your package after iris recognition, you can even hear a cute little girl saying, "Colorful Bird Delivery, efficient delivery, please remember to give us a good review, little brother!"
Upon opening the box, there was a drone packaging box printed with various bird patterns, and a small black cube-sized box.
Because an electronic license is required for drone flights in the city, Li Xijun simply turned on the drone to check it, and put it back in the box without connecting it to the internet.
He solemnly opened another small black box, about the size of a magic doll, and carefully took out a mass of black, slime-like liquid metal.
He was completely relieved only after following the instructions to collect and bind the DNA and successfully put on the nano-integrated protective suit that covered his entire body.
He bought this using a 12-month installment plan on his credit card!
Fortunately, this nano-integrated protective clothing also has excellent defensive capabilities.
Although it doesn't have the same features as the nanosuits provided to elite students, which include heart rate monitoring, blood and qi fluctuation monitoring, and connection to private martial arts classrooms for recording training assistance.
However, its defensive capabilities are top-notch. In terms of hardness, even sniper bullets cannot penetrate it, and in terms of shock absorption and energy absorption, it can even allow ordinary people with a health level of one or two to survive close-range explosions.
The gas detection and warning mask, along with its self-cleaning function and short-term internal oxygen circulation, are also very practical features.
"I've almost recovered, so I'll practice the Azure Dragon Sky-Piercing Technique again and try out the self-cleaning function of the nano-clothing."
Li Xijun, very satisfied with her online purchase, jumped up onto the balcony and began her cultivation.
...............
after an hour
"Hungry, hungry, hungry..."
"I'm so hungry!"
Good news: Li Xijun was very satisfied with the self-cleaning function of the nano-clothing after the experiment. It did indeed prevent the situation where he sweated profusely during cultivation, his clothes became soaked through, and the whole room smelled of sweat.
Bad news: He felt that if he had persisted for another hour, his Qi and blood levels would have broken through, but his energy depletion forced him to give up temporarily.
"If I had had a Qi and Blood potion when I started cultivating, my Qi and Blood level would probably be 5.8 by now."
"As expected, we are still severely lacking in cultivation resources."
This feeling of having the ability but being unable to fully enjoy it due to limitations made Li Xijun feel somewhat uncomfortable.
He could only comfort himself by opening the app and ordering a meal of blood essence rice.
This is a kind of spirit rice from the mythical world.
It provides slightly more energy than the gel in the nutrition package.
However, due to its terrible, bloody taste, it's priced even lower than energy gels.
They usually rely on using strong seasonings to mask the fishy smell when selling fried rice.
Compared to the exquisitely delicious spirit rice from other mythological worlds, which brings immense comfort to the body after consumption,
The only advantage of blood essence rice is that it's cheap, even cheaper than energy gel.
For Li Xijun, who had spent most of her money preparing to explore the other world, this was a choice made out of necessity.
Fortunately, he inherited the original owner's "Innate Fitness Holy Body" talent for taste, and despite the hunger during cultivation, he quickly finished eating.
"It'll be soon, just wait until I open this great treasure."
"I swear I'll never eat at a shared restaurant again in my life!"
Before going to sleep, Li Xijun glanced at the message "[Convergence of the Heavens (29%)" on the attribute panel and then snuggled under the covers.
.................
next day
On his way to school, Zhou Yibai seemed to have forgotten yesterday's troubles and returned to his previous state, even chatting with Li Xijun with a bit of high spirits.
At first, Li Xijun thought this was due to the self-adjustment of mindset unique to high school students.
Later, after seeing many students along the way with bright and spirited expressions, Li Xijun's keen intuition honed in the stock market made him realize that something was amiss.
When the martial arts class began this morning, as usual, Zhang Haifeng had the students practice the basic stance training...
"Pop—!"
The crisp sound of the cork being pulled out of the bottle echoed in the classroom.
This sound was like a signal, and soon a series of "pop" "pop" "pop" sounds of bottle corks being pulled out echoed throughout the classroom.
Li Xijun glanced around and discovered that nearly half of the students in the martial arts class had taken out qi and blood potions to assist their cultivation.
This made his heart sink.
"This truly lives up to its reputation as a 'ten-year talent cultivation program.'"
"Driven by this 'catfish effect,' the skill level of this year's senior high school martial arts students will likely be the best in over a decade."
"Of course, the required entrance scores, health levels, and martial arts skills are expected to be the highest in recent years."
At this moment, Li Xijun really wanted to give a bitter smile.
Among these drug users, Zhou Yibai also took out a black cylindrical metal box from his backpack, revealing 30 bottles of Qi and Blood potion arranged in a dense array.
Many of his fellow cultivators couldn't help but cast their gazes at him, which satisfied Zhou Yibai's sense of superiority and arrogance.
"I didn't expect this morning that the resources prepared at home would be so plentiful."
"But my mom said this might be the only chance I'll ever have, and told me not to worry about money. She said I should take one a day and train hard so I can get into a martial arts university."
This crude, high school-student-style pretentiousness made many of the students around him roll their eyes.
Li Xijun also silently withdrew his gaze and planned to continue cultivating the "Azure Dragon Heaven-Reaching Technique".
No wonder Zhou Yibai, who was in a bad mood yesterday, is so smug today. I originally thought it was because he had a good attitude and a strong will, but it turns out he has found his sense of superiority again.
Of course, Li Xijun would never admit that she saw so much blood and qi potion acid.
"Indeed, whether it's a Brahmin lady who married the wrong person or someone from an ordinary family, they are far more helpful than orphans at this time..."
"Damn it, why isn't there a Chinese stock market like the A-shares market in this world..."
Just as Li Xijun was internally complaining, Zhang Haifeng had already arrived beside him.
The teacher took out a white plastic box containing six vials of Qi and Blood Elixir, and, under the watchful eyes of many, slapped it into Li Xijun's hand, loudly announcing:
"This is a reward I'm personally paying for, given to the student who mastered the true martial arts killing move the fastest in yesterday's martial arts class!"
"The 'Ten-Year Talent Cultivation Program' has begun; you must be competitive."
"As long as you progress quickly enough and have enough talent, even if you don't get school awards, I'm still very willing to help talented students."
Zhang Haifeng's words inspired many students to work even harder, as if they had been injected with adrenaline.
Li Xijun remarked that the talent he had deliberately displayed yesterday had earned him his first investment.
"Thank you for your guidance, teacher. I will definitely work hard to improve myself and bring honor to you, Teacher Zhang."
Li Xijun expressed her gratitude very sensibly in response to the teacher's help, which made Zhang Haifeng very satisfied.
He deliberately took out the Qi and Blood Medicine and gave it to Li Xijun in public for this very reason.
Having received a satisfactory reply, Zhang Haifeng continued to patrol the classroom, while Li Xijun unhesitatingly opened the stopper and swallowed the vermilion-colored liquid.
A surge of scalding warmth first flows through the stomach, bringing a sense of satisfaction completely different from that of a well-prepared meal or nutritional paste.
Immediately afterwards, streams of warmth began to spread throughout his body, to his limbs, bones, and flesh. The tingling, numb feeling, like soaking in a hot spring, allowed Li Xijun to enter the state of standing meditation faster than usual, and his blood and qi circulation became more active and powerful.
This is why Qi and Blood Elixir is almost an essential item for apprentices at level 9 of cultivation.
Nutritional meals and dietary supplements are all ways to replenish the body's nutrients after cultivation.
Qi and blood potions, however, can directly extend the cultivation time of basic cultivation methods, assist in cultivation effects, and improve physical fitness.
This is indeed an indispensable resource for those who want to quickly increase their cultivation speed.
Soon, with the help of the Qi and Blood Elixir, Li Xijun entered a state of selfless cultivation.
In less than an hour,
Li Xijun suddenly stopped, and her previously lowered eyelids snapped open, her bright eyes revealing undisguised joy.
Your Qi and Blood level has increased from 5.7 to 5.8.
"Not bad, not bad... My talent is already top-notch, and I'm at 59% proficient in the Azure Dragon Heaven-Reaching Technique."
"As long as the resources are sufficient, breaking through to this level of Qi and Blood is not difficult at all."
"At this rate, I'm confident I can reach 5.9 within two days and advance to level 6 within five days."
Li Xijun silently rejoiced at his own progress.
At the same time, I am increasingly looking forward to what the various worlds I can go to will be like, and whether they will have relevant martial arts resources.
