Chapter 10: Pain and Happiness
The Duxian Sect has five main peaks, of which the highest is the Yunluo Peak where the sect leader resides.
The Green?Yunluo Mountain, located in the northwest corner of the Duxian Sect, is often covered with clouds, obscuring it from sight.
Big rocks lay upon the mountain, shaped like numerous beasts and ghosts.
Cranes dance in the mountain and nestle in the clouds.
Currently, atop a big stone enveloped by the tinkling sound of a stream, a white-haired old man lays on his side under a green pine tree; he was leisurely watching Spirit Fishes swimming in the pool.
This person was Jue Yunzi, the sect leader of the Duxian Sect, whose real name was Lu Yuansi.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man in a loose white taoist robe appeared in front of Jue Yunzi. His tone was somewhat dignified, "Sect leader, big news!"
Jue Yunzi straightened up and asked leisurely, "Gaoyi, why are you so flustered?"
The cultivator named Gaoyi swung his wide sleeves.
Then, the mist in the pool formed a "screen" in front of Jue Yunzi.
"Sect leader, please take a look!"
The person who swayed in the center of the "screen" was Bai Lian, who had just come out of the Medical Pills Pavilion and was rushing back to the Qiongming Peak to repair the Obsolete Spiritual Root for Xiao Jinse.
The girl was a little less calm, and her energetic appearance was a bit like a running deer.
"This is…"
Jue Yunzi unconsciously stared.
As a sect leader of the Duxian Sect, he has cultivated a calm heart for more than 500 years.
However, since the late master's favorite Younger Martial Sister, An Lan, accepted a disciple named Bai Lian, Jue Yunzi found that his heart was becoming more and more unstable.
"Tao… Tao… Tao Halo!?"
Jue Yunzi looked away and stared at Gaoyi.
"I think so, too."
Gaoyi looked serious. With a flick of his fingers, the waves behind Bai Lian's heels filled the screen.
Jue Yunzi murmured, "Never before."
Gaoyi looked up slightly and was extremely solemn, "Maybe Bai Lian's Holy Body Talent has finally awakened!"
She's only a child!
She has already formed a Tao Halo after just awakening. What will it be like after she grows up?
Hiss—
Jue Yunzi took a breath.
It is so terrible.
Gaoyi was not surprised by Jue Yunzi's behavior.
Aware of the rumors in the sect, he had never taken them seriously before. A Natural Saint? Bai Lian's talent is great, but it didn’t reach that level.
But from today, he really believes it!
Take a look.

When Gaoyi just found Bai Lian's Tao Halo special effect while walking, Gaoyi's expression was like this.
乂(?Д?三?Д?)乂
What the hell!
I'm not dreaming, am I?
Gaoyi came up to Jue Yunzi and said, "Elder Martial Brother, can you decipher the Tao Halo?"
Jue Yunzi shook his head and said, "It is too complicated. It is as bright as a star river and as deep as an abyss. It is a mountain from a distance, yet water from…"
Keep it simple!
"Too strong!" Jue Yunzi lowered his eyes. "I can't understand it."
"……"
Jue Yunzi coughed softly, stroked his cheeks, and then stood with his clasped hands in front of him. "Tao Halos contain profound knowledge passed down from ancient times. How can I understand it at a glance?"
"……"
Jueyunzi reached out and patted Gaoyi on the shoulder, as if to comfort him. "Know this, there is no end to learning!"
"……"
Jue Yunzi turned around and spoke lightly, "Now is not the time. Although people outside are saying that Bai Lian is a Natural Saint, after all, there is no evidence. We must not divulge the news that she can produce the Tao Halo at this time, otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Gaoyi nodded repeatedly.
Jue Yunzi took out a thing. "Use this thing to hide it."
"OK, let me handle it."
When Gaoyi turned around and left, he still heard Jue Yunzi saying, "We are lucky, once in a million years, the future of the sect…"
……
– Meanwhile
In the game, Bai Lian, who was called "The Shame of the Sect", "The Scum of the World", and "The Lawless Madwoman", opened the gate.
"Bai Lian… elder martial sister!"
Xiao Jinse stood up and looked at the smiling Bai Lian with embarrassment.
Her clothes had long been changed into the uniform of the Qiongming Peak disciple——
A plain and elegant cultivator gown!
This was designed by Bai Lian and placed next to Xiao Jinse's pillow. It is embedded with a delicate lotus flower. After wearing this dress, she formally became her Second Martial Sister.
Bai Lian asked, "How did you sleep last night?"
Xiao Jinse replied, "Very well."
She hasn't been so relaxed in a long time.
In this fairy mountain, even if you open the door, you can feel carefree.
"That's good."
Bai Lian didn't think much.
The Qiongming Peak is really quiet. She used to have trouble sleeping because of the early morning bird chirping, so she created a scarecrow that can automatically chase and drive away birds and animals.
Unfortunately, this trick didn't work on the rabbit. Instead of scaring it away, the rabbit sometimes chased the scarecrow.
Bai Lian put the medicine box on the stone table.
"In that case, let me help you repair your Spiritual Root now."
This light heartedly spoken sentence fell on Xiao Jinse's ears like thunder. She unconsciously stepped back and still felt that this was all a dream.
"Senior sister…"
"Relax." Bai Lian took out a jade bottle from the medicine box and led Xiao Jinse into the room. "Take this medical pill first, and I will help you refine the energy inside it."
Xiao Jinse was so dazed that she could only mindlessly follow Bai Lian's instructions.
When she swallowed the medical pill, she suddenly felt that there was a fire burning at her Dantian, which was a new experience for her.
Xiao Jinse opened her mouth slightly and exhaled slowly. Suddenly, a cold little hand pressed on her Dantian.
A hot wind stroked her ear, and a voice followed, "Younger martial sister, remember, this is your Dantian. The breath will be in the Dantian. The center of Dantian is the door of Yin and Yang!"
Xiao Jinse nodded hard.
Her head was dizzy, and it was a little painful.
Then Bai Lian said, "I will help you guide the medicine’s energy to reshape the Spiritual Root, and help you condense the cyclone. It will be a little painful at first, but as long as you bear it, you will be able to officially enter the world of cultivation!”
"Well."
Bai Lian smiled and was about to say a few more words when new task options jumped out.
[Task 1: Sit back and watch Xiao Jinse fail to refine the medicine energy. (Reward: Tianxiang Jade Dew)]
[Task 2: Take the initiative to alleviate Xiao Jinse's pain. (Reward: A top-grade magic tool - Red Dragon Armor)]
[Task 3: Help Xiao Jinse as promised. (Reward: Alchemy +2)]
Ho ho.
Sure enough, it came again.
Bai Lian, who was still proud of her insight at the Medical Pills Pavilion, glanced at the task panel with disdain.
You want to tempt me to commit a crime?
Superficial.
"My heart is clear and clean! It won't affect me!"
Choose Task 3.
Bai Lian started to guide the medicine energy. She carefully repaired the Spiritual Root for Xiao Jinse.
During this period, as she said, Xiao Jinse trembled violently because of the pain.
But the protagonist is worthy of being the protagonist. Even though she was sweating from the pain, Xiao Jinse didn't scream.
Yes.
Bai Lian deeply admired it.
But just then, Xiao Jinse's eyes parted, her teeth loosened slightly, and a "cry" came out of her mouth.
Hiss—
Bai Lian felt as if she had been electrocuted.
Crap. The sound is poisonous.
She was distracted by the sound, and her hands froze as new task options jumped out again.
Go away.
I will never give in to your shitty system!
Choose Task 3!
Bai Lian punched herself and continued to help her younger martial sister repair the Spiritual Root.
After a while, Xiao Jinse, who had lost most of her strength, fell slightly and leaned against Bai Lian.
[Task 1:…]
Choose Task 3!
–After a while, the sun settled down.
[Task 1:…]
Is it over?!
Bai Lian just got up angrily and sat down dejectedly.
Just choose Task 3!
But she also knew that she could not act recklessly. She had to be strategic. After looking around for a while, Bai Lian picked up her clothes and blocked the second martial sister's mouth.
"Humph, can you still yell in this situation?!"
She also pressed down on Xiao Jinse's restless legs. Although her posture was somewhat indecent, the effect was fairly good.
That's it.
–After a quarter of an hour.
In the steamy bedroom, Bai Lian fell down on the wooden floor with a plop. She was lying on her back without regard for her image. In the corner of her eyes was the second martial sister who was sleeping safely.
ε= (′ ο｀*))) alas
This little troublemaker.
When repairing the Spiritual Root for her second martial sister, she triggered the task option six times in total. The total reward was——
[Alchemy +2, Painting +1, Hard Skill +3, Soft Skill +2, Focus +2]
The reward is good, but the system is too vicious!
Bai Lian was in pain and happy.
She felt very tired. She wanted to have a good sleep.
……
Xiao Jinse didn’t know how long she slept.
When she woke up, she saw a wooden ceiling.
She felt very light, and the whole world was more vibrant.
Maybe…
Xiao Jinse gingerly explored her Dantian. For a moment, she was flabbergasted.
A cyclone!
She has officially entered the immortal road!
It was fixed, really fixed.
Xiao Jinse sat on the bed for a long time without saying anything. She didn't know how to describe her mood at this time.
It was too complicated.
Her eyes were full of confusion.
Pictures floated before her eyes, and the last image in front of her was Bai Lian's flushed cheeks.
"Yes, the elder martial sister!"
Xiao Jinse hurried to look around. When she found Bai Lian lying on the ground, she jumped out of bed in a panic.
"Elder martial sister, elder martial sister, are you all right?"
Xiao Jinse held Bai Lian's body and bit her lips as her eyes filled up with tears.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian was completely exhausted from helping her repair the Obsolete Spiritual Root. She, she…
Xiao Jinse choked; she was speechless.
Elder martial sister, you must not have an accident!
Otherwise, she could not live on by herself.
As they sat there, Xiao Jinse suddenly found that her arm was grasped. She saw Bai Lian slowly open her eyes.
"Well, my effort was rewarded.", then Bai Lian closed her eyes once more.
"Senior martial sister!", Xiao Jinse exclaimed.
She didn't expect that Bai Lian would still care about her under such circumstances.
Xiao Jinse tightly hugged Bai Lian and buried her head in Bai Lian's chest. It was soft and warm.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian has given her a new life. What should she do to repay her kindness?
They held this position for a long time.
