The intoxication in Bai Qianqian’s eyes showed no trace of acting.
Her hands even began to crawl upward instinctively.
Lin Xinyi frowned slightly and, with a gentle push of her toe, kicked the girl away.
“You only get this reward if you cultivate properly~”
Bai Qianqian lay weakly to the side, slowly propping herself up.
She displayed the symptoms of a severe addict.
Seeing her in this state, Lin Xinyi became even more convinced that her worries had been unnecessary.
Luo Qingyao watched the interaction between the two from the side, her body transparent.
Inwardly, she could not help but admire Bai Qianqian’s acting skills more and more.
The hazy eyes, the restless hands and feet, and that intoxicated look did not seem like an act at all.
‘What a pity for such a beautiful face…’
Lin Xinyi gently lifted the girl’s chin with her toe.
Seeing Bai Qianqian’s intoxicated expression, it appeared the side effects had long since ravaged her.
Lin Xinyi studied the face, which still held a hint of youth.
Although the girl’s beauty was beginning to show its potential, she was not yet as stunning as Lin Xinyi remembered.
While Lin Xinyi hated Bai Qianqian to the bone, she did not particularly dislike her when viewed as a pretty pet.
‘If she learns this technique, she’ll become a fat pig, and then she won’t be cute anymore. Whatever, since I have to keep her anyway, she might as well stay pleasant to look at~’
Lin Xinyi looked at the [Devouring Heaven Manual (Fragmented)] she had selected.
After some thought, she put it away and slowly pulled out another manual.
She dazed out for a moment while looking at the title.
[Heart of Elixir Manual]
[The practitioner can nurture spiritual energy within their body, constantly accumulating and purifying it until a Heart of Elixir is formed. The purer the accumulated energy, the smoother the practitioner’s cultivation will be. Those who achieve success can become immortals through the Heart of Elixir.]
[Side Effect: After practicing, the practitioner’s body will become soft and delicate, and their physical sensitivity will increase several times over. The body will become a top-tier Human Cauldron.]
“Even though it’s not a fragmented technique, isn’t this effect exactly what I need right now~”
This manual had originally been prepared for Qin Huaiyin.
However, due to Qin Huaiyin’s constitution, the spiritual energy in her body was already pure.
She did not need such a tedious technique, so it had been kept aside.
‘Looking at it this way, if I let this girl cultivate this…’
A wicked thought surfaced in Lin Xinyi’s mind.
After all, she had seen what Bai Qianqian looked like grown up.
Setting aside her crazed personality, she was definitely a peerless beauty.
‘A crazed personality…’
Lin Xinyi felt a surge of bad memories.
She hesitated while looking at the manual.
Although the [Heart of Elixir Manual] indeed offered unique benefits, it was a genuine cultivation method and a valid cultivation path.
Lin Xinyi was not sure if giving this manual to her would backfire.
If Bai Qianqian turned out to be exceptionally gifted and broke through to the True Immortal Realm overnight, she would be finished.
“Master… my body is so hot, and Master’s body is so cool…”
Bai Qianqian extended the tip of her tongue and lightly touched the calf wrapped in white silk.
Her eyes were full of intoxication and daze.
Seeing her like this, Lin Xinyi could not help but laugh self-deprecatingly.
‘Geniuses are humans first, and then they are geniuses. Now that she has turned into this, what am I worried about?’
Lin Xinyi looked at the lust-filled Bai Qianqian and became convinced she was beyond saving.
Even if she gave her the manual, she would just be a hollow vase with some cultivation.
At that thought, Lin Xinyi’s heart settled.
She no longer hesitated and threw the manual directly at the girl’s face.
Despite the humiliation, Bai Qianqian did not seem to care.
She just held the manual with vacant, confused eyes.
“Once you cultivate this technique to great completion, I’ll give you a reward~”
After saying that, Lin Xinyi stood up and withdrew her long, slender leg.
Bai Qianqian had been holding it tightly, and when it was pulled away, her eyes showed a sense of loss.
“Alright, cultivate well. And if you really can’t endure it anymore, take this pill…”
Lin Xinyi placed a jade bottle containing a Soul-Bewildering Pill on the table.
She then turned and walked out of the Mini Grotto-heaven, leaving Bai Qianqian sitting blankly on the ground.
“She’s gone…”
As soon as Lin Xinyi completely vanished from the Mini Grotto-heaven, Bai Qianqian’s eyes turned calm.
She stood up as if nothing had happened and casually flipped through the manual.
Tens of thousands of pieces of information began to organize and align in her mind.
‘The Myriad Profound Extreme is a good thing…’
Bai Qianqian’s expression was indifferent.
The Seed of the 3,000 Great Daos within her body began to circulate.
Realms that ordinary people would spend their whole lives trying to reach were like thin paper to her, easily pierced.
‘Forming a Heart of Elixir in the body to allow others to pluck and supplement…’
Bai Qianqian’s cheeks flushed slightly.
She seemed to know Lin Xinyi’s purpose in teaching her this.
If the first two techniques were purely for torture, this one was out of greed for her cultivation.
‘Should I follow Master’s wishes? I could touch Master’s body…’
Bai Qianqian knew it should not work that way, but seeing Lin Xinyi give her this technique to use her as a Human Cauldron later, her first reaction was not disgust or fear.
Instead, there was a hint of anticipation.
If Luo Qingyao saw her like this, she would surely think Bai Qianqian had gone mad.
Who would feel anticipation at being used as a Human Cauldron?
‘This seems alright, but I don’t want to be discarded after being used just once…’
[When being plucked, the practitioner can provide feedback to the plunderer through the refined spiritual energy in their body. They will not lose the Heart of Elixir; instead, the process will further purify it.]
Bai Qianqian slowly exhaled.
Golden laws surged into the jade slip.
The original side effects were instantly modified until they were almost nonexistent.
Lin Xinyi could never have imagined that the way to use the Seed of the 3,000 Great Daos was not to comprehend techniques, but to command them.
All developed techniques could never escape the three thousand basic laws.
The Dao Seed could rearrange and improve them.
Bai Qianqian looked at the modified technique with a satisfied gaze.
‘This way, Master won’t throw me away after using me once…’
