Hide in The Immortal Cultivation World, Strike Hard in the Martial World - Chapter 244 - 138: Chen Yi's Background is Greater than Yours_3

Unknowingly, two quarter hours had passed.

A layer of delicate sweat was now covering Little Emei’s forehead. In the beginning, she only felt a sense of coolness and comfort within her body when Brother Chen’s mana and the healing pill took effect.

However, after only a few dozen breaths, she felt that the external injuries inflicted by her boss this time were almost completely healed. Even some of the hidden internal damages were rapidly cleared.

The little girl was amazed by this miracle and thought that the treatment was over already.

Unexpectedly, Brother Chen’s mana made its way directly into her meridians and Dantian, like gentle flowing water, caressing her meridians and Dantian,

Helping her to warm and dissolve the bone-chilling cold within her body,

Immediately, the little girl felt incredibly comfortable throughout her entire body. To her astonishment, her internal mana had significantly increased.

It felt as if she had taken some miraculous pill!

After about half a quarter hour, this sensation nearly ceased,

Only that Chen Yi was still slowly channeling his mana,

The little girl’s delicate meridians could barely accommodate Chen Yi’s robust mana, making her somewhat uncomfortable.

But she didn’t dare say a word, only silently enduring the violent impact,

Until two quarter hours later, she could no longer bear it. When she felt that Brother Chen’s palm was getting hotter and hotter, almost scalding her entire back red,

She finally asked in a low voice,

Only then did Chen Yi respond,

The little girl in front of him was only at the Qi Refining First Layer, she naturally couldn’t withstand the long duration of his mana impact from his Qi Refining Seventh Layer level,

Chen Yi retracted his hand, feeling a bit embarrassed about losing himself,

“Ahem, well, that’s it for today’s treatment. You should go back and keep practicing the Great Heavenly Cycle as much as possible, trying to dissolve today’s mana. Also, you should learn how to start the Turtle Breath Technique as soon as possible.”

“I understand.”

The little girl stood up with a deep tap-tap-tap noise and ran to the room that Chen Yi had arranged for her in the Cave Mansion as if she was escaping.

“Hmm, well, it’s not entirely my fault.

If anyone is to blame, it’s the fact that treating a female cultivator through a layer of clothing reduces sensitivity, so I unknowingly extended the treatment duration.”

…

Little Emei had stayed with Chen Yi as a little maid and gradually started practicing the Turtle Breath Calming Technique,

Under Chen Yi’s strict demands, she first learned the Restraint Skill,

And Chen Yi didn’t teach her any offensive skills, only the Spiritual Power Shield, Lightness Skill, underwater respiration and other defense and escape skills,

Meanwhile, every month or so, Chen Yi would help her comb through the ice essence within her body,

Thus, although the little girl was practicing the Turtle Breath Technique, her cultivation level was still rising rapidly.

Thıʂ 𝙘hⱯp𝖙𝗲r ıṡ p𝙤𝐬†𝓮ⅾ bƴ 𝖪𝐢τҽȠ𝟬ν𝗲𝘭

In just three months, her cultivation level had broken through from the Qi Refining First Layer to the Qi Refining Second Layer, and she was even close to the Qi refining third layer!

This rate was much faster than Zhao Chengyu’s in the past,

Chen Yi remembered that it took Zhao Chengyu more than a month to breakthrough from the Qi Refining First Layer to the Qi Refining Second Layer back then,

Yet, this girl was about to breakthrough to the Qi refining third layer.

“No, I have to keep her in check. I can’t let her grow too fast. That would be too dangerous.”

One day, after testing Liu Emei’s Restraint Skill, Chen Yi was finally satisfied. As long as there were no Foundation Establishment cultivators with Divine Senses around, her true cultivation level would be almost undetectable.

At the same time, Chen Yi assigned her a lot of tasks, such as recognizing spirit medicine, trying to process spirit medicine for the first time, and practicing various skills.

Moreover, with the rise of her cultivation level, Chen Yi planned to slightly reduce the frequency of helping her comb through the ice essence in her body.

Now that she had Turtle Breath Mana, albeit without the Turtle Breathing Daoistic rhymes, she could barely attempt to comb through her own ice essence.

In the end, she would eventually have to reach the stage where she could control the ice essence on her own. Otherwise, no matter how much Chen Yi helped her, she wouldn’t be able to survive the day when the ice essence within her body fully develops,

She would have to cross this hurdle on her own.

For the past few months, Emei had been taken aback by the speed of her own cultivation. Even if Chen Yi didn’t mention anything about her physical condition,

She wasn’t stupid. She knew the speed of cultivation for an average Four Spirit Root person,

According to the books, her current cultivation speed was almost catching up with that of a Single Spiritual Root top cultivation prodigy!

But Chen Yi asked her not to question and just be obedient, so she kept it to herself and didn’t ask.

Still, she felt it intuitively and now had some understanding of Brother Chen’s previous requirements for her.

Brother Chen often said, “A tree standing higher than the rest of the forest, will be the first to be destroyed by the wind. So you must always stay low-key, and never let others know your true cultivation level.”

“Don’t worry, Brother Chen. I won’t cause any problems for you. I’ll keep up with the progress of a Four Spirit Root cultivation dummy should make!”

During these two months, Pillar and Cui Hua also went to the Inner City once a month to complete the tasks assigned by Chen Yi. Chen Yi gave them two spirit stones as rewards each month,

For the two of them living in the shantytowns, this payment was just right. Having too many spirit stones would arouse jealousy, while having too few would not improve their livelihood. Maybe the two of them would even have to find work outside,

Which would potentially lead to new problems – something that Chen Yi did not want to see.

Meanwhile, every day the two elders came to the Inner City, Chen Yi would ask Little Emei to prepare a sumptuous Spiritual Feast for the four of them.

During the meal, Chen Yi secretly added some spirit medicines that nourish the body and replenished vitality and blood, subtly providing some nutritional help to the two.

All of this, Little Emei watched and stored in her heart.
