The next morning,

"Senior brother, do you feel that Enlightenment Peak is a bit different today?"

Early morning, Luo Qingyao lay on Fan Wubing's bed, staring intently at him.

Fan Wubing lay still,

"Yes. I saw a crazy woman first thing in the morning; indeed, it's different. Also, junior sister, don't you know that a man's morning should be private?"

"I'm not a crazy woman." Luo Qingyao continued, "What do you mean by private?"

She was startled at first, then understood, and her face turned as red as a monkey's butt, a mist appeared in her eyes, and she shrieked before quickly running away.

Fan Wubing sat up and smirked.

After all, she's just an innocent young girl. Usually, she talks a lot, but faced with the real thing, she immediately surrenders.

Sigh, underage... sigh, moral bottom line...

He performed the Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill to calm the young and impulsive Fan Wubing, then began to get dressed.

After dressing, Fan Wubing looked towards the door.

Luo Qingyao squatted there, feeling wronged and sulking, murmuring softly,

"What about the date we talked about... it's been so long already..."

Fan Wubing tidied up his bed while saying,

"It's almost time for the big competition, aren't you going to fight for a spot in the blessed land? Among the first generation disciples, you have a good chance, you know. As for me, senior brother, I got in through a backdoor with the Sect Leader, securing a slot without any fighting."

"The Sect Leader's... backdoor?"

"...Luo Qingyao, what's going on in that little head of yours all day!"

"Huh?" Luo Qingyao looked at him in confusion.

Could it be that I'm the one being improper?

"Ahem, nothing."

Luo Qingyao said listlessly,

"I'm sick."

"What kind of sickness?"

"Lovesickness. The elder who examined me said that only spending a day on a date with senior brother will cure it."

Luo Qingyao is always so blunt. She can't hide her emotions at all, whether good or bad, they're all written on her face, visible in her eyes. When happy, her eyes curve like crescent moons; when sad, her mouth pouts like an arched bridge.

"Which quack elder? Tell me his name, and I'll immediately find him for an explanation."

"Oh, senior brother, stop pretending to not understand!"

Fan Wubing rolled his eyes,

"If I really understood everything, I'd be condemned by everyone. You little one even blame me; senior brother here is protecting you, got it?"

"Little one this, little one that, you're only two months older than me…"

"..."

That's true. Fan Wubing is fourteen, still five months away from turning fifteen.

"Young and green, thinking only of love."

Luo Qingyao replied discontentedly,

"Senior brother has the nerve to say that about me… Aren't you the same? Secretly drawing pictures of senior sister."

"That's admiration, how is it the same as what you're doing? Also, whatever you do, don't tell senior sister about this, got it!"

Luo Qingyao's mouth curled to her ears,

"Do you even believe what you're saying?"

"You… fine, fine! A date it is!"

Fan Wubing knows Luo Qingyao well. She's persistent, and won't let go until she's happy. But once she's happy, she'll behave for a while...

Fan Wubing calls it the "Luo Qingyao Energy Bar".

Once the energy bar is depleted, it quickly needs to be replenished, or she'll enter tantrum mode. Once full, it's enough to last her a long time.

"Yay! I'll go change into some nice clothes!"

Fan Wubing then went outside to get some fresh air.

As soon as he stepped out, he felt that today's Enlightenment Peak was indeed different. Sprouts grew on dead trees, flowers bloomed everywhere, Profound Birds perched on branches, lush mist vaporized, bamboo groves were lush and dripping, and there was a purplish aura at the Enlightenment Stele. Invisible 'Qi' flowed through the mountain forest paths, replacing the usual dilapidation and desolation with vibrant vitality, and everything was thriving.

Even though it was already late May, it felt like the beginning of spring.

["Tongue Desire": You inhale immortal energy, max life +0.01]

Hmm?

Is this possible?

Could it be that anything that enters the body can be digested and absorbed by "Tongue Desire"?

Wow! Breathing alone can make me stronger!

0.01 per time isn't much. But this gain was free, without any effort!

Fan Wubing felt a sense of delight. Checking the attribute panel,

[Fan Wubing]

[Age: 14 years]

[Life: 3017/3017 points]

[Cultivation: None]

[Techniques: "Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill", "Swallowing Stars, Chewing the Moon", "Blood Burning Skill"]

[Constitution: Heaven-deficient Body...]

[Talent: Fate Not to End. Life has no limit]

[Talent: Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill. Recovers 0.1% life per second]

[Talent: "Tongue Desire". All things can be consumed by you to replenish qi and blood]

"3017 life! Equivalent to the late stage Foundation Establishment!"

But the problem remains, lacking combat ability.

At this moment, the dragon energy that had been lurking in his body suddenly calms, motionless, like a tamed wild horse, obediently waiting to be ridden. At the same time, a prompt appeared before his eyes,

[Creation for a Thousand Autumns, Qi Circulation of the Major and Minor Circulation. You captured a rich 'Dynasty Dragon Qi', it's a pure innate creation qi, able to evolve "Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill", evolve now?]

Huh?

Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill can evolve? A cultivation technique that can evolve? Oh man, what a treasure sis gave me!

Without hesitation, evolve!

Instantly, he felt the energy surge within, dragon shadows vaguely seen circling accompanied by resounding dragon roars.

In a moment, a scene flashed in his eyes—

It was a massive capital city, walls stretching for miles, buildings and streets like stars in a grid, at the very center of the capital, above the grand palace, a giant black dragon with closed eyes. Suddenly, it opened its eyes to look.

Upon eye contact, the scene shattered instantly.

Fan Wubing was shocked, could that be... the capital of the Great Li Dynasty? And that black dragon, the dynasty's fate?

[Evolution Completed]

["Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill"]

[Martial Dao Technique]

[Grade: Profound Level Best Quality→Spirit Level Lower Quality]

[Effect: Recovers 0.1% max life per second]

[New Effect: You'll be more sensitive to "creation qi", and can absorb "creation qi" through specific means]

Creation qi is divided into two types. One is innate, the other acquired.

"Innate creation qi", also known as "luck", is ordained by heaven. It's said that the amount of worldly luck is fixed; if you gain a bit, I lose a bit. Hence, fighting for luck has always been an inevitable drama in the cultivation realm.

"Acquired creation qi" is man-made, relating to the qi tied to the Dao that cultivators attain themselves. Such as Dao Qi, literary energy, the breath of prosperous farming, incense qi, divine soul perception...

At this moment, Luo Qingyao, having changed her clothes, came over,

"Senior brother, I'm ready!"

Fan Wubing turned to look, immediately seeing her overflowing luck like a blazing sun. He dumbfoundedly said,

"Junior sister, did you grow up eating the sun?"

"Huh?"

Fan Wubing quickly suppressed the Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill.

The Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill, bolstered by that strand of dragon qi, had grown from a Profound Level Best Quality technique to a Spirit Level Lower Quality one.

A technique that can grow... how marvelous.

It seems senior sister has many treasures; when she returns, I'll ask if she has anything like "Blood Lock Skill", "Reflective Armor", or "Sunburst". Anything that can link to a blood bar will do!
