Chapter 23:The Use of Qi and Essence

Chapter 23 – The Use of Qi and Essence

*POEK*

Miaomiao fell from the measurement scale and landed on the floor face first.

As if today was a bad day for Miaomiao, he lost count how many times he got hurt in real life and in Isolation Training Chamber.

"Ugh, my nose."

Blood running from his nostrils dripped on the floor. Miaomiao wiped it and rubbed his nose, checking if it was broken or not, but it was fine.

A throbbing headache made Miaomiao tumble. He had a hard time getting up on his feet as the world was spinning.

"Ai, Yai, Yai, you must have picked something amazing, young master. You got rocked hard."

Qi Hong placed Miaomiao's arm around her neck and helped him up. She carried him away from the statue and laid him next to Jiang Lan.

"Alright, you girls next! Go and stand in front of the statue, one at a time. Say that you're here to access the outer library, and you have my permission."

…

Ten minutes, everyone got their manuals. Unlike Miaomiao who required more time to make the decision, these girls were there for a specific skill, so they got their manual in an instant.

"Alright, I'll guide you out. You should return to your dorm and practice your skills. I'll see you guys next week."

Qi Hong concluded the trip. She opened a magic array portal to send everyone off.

Jiang Lan and other disciples exited first. When Miaomiao was about to follow them, Qi Hong whispered, "Don't forget. I want Zheng Liqin permanently brainwashed. Keep breaking her until she becomes your loyal meat slave, so I can convince your mother not to expel that slut from the sect."

Smiling widely, Miaomiao nodded, "Of course! Considered it done."

The elder and Miaomiao cackled. She slapped his butt and sent him off, "Now, go. But if you're bored of Zheng Liqin or you need more Yin Cauldron, don't hesitate to tell me. I have so many troublemakers that I need them rehabilitated. Oh, and don't drain all of Liqin's Yin Qi. Leave some for her or she will be useless."

"I know. See you next week, senior."

Miaomiao and Jiang Lan returned to room 14001, but the latter excused herself.

"Young master, I'm going to practice Succubi Sense technique. The manual said that I have to enter a closed-door training at least a week to master the first half of the technique. I'm afraid that I can't…"

Jiang Lan was afraid that Miaomiao might be mad since she wouldn't be able to serve him at night.

Miaomiao kissed her forehead and hugged her, "Just call me [Husband] or [Miaomiao] when we're alone. I'm your husband, remember?"

"But we haven't married yet."

"We have already married that night. Though it wasn't official, but for us, we're husband and wife."

Jiang Lan's face reddened. She buried her face on his chest, embarrassed and happy that she was loved.

"Okay, M-Miaomiao."

"Good. Now, don't worry about our time together. Go train and achieve your dream. We still have plenty of time to see each other, remember?"

Jiang Lan nodded.

The two hugged for a few minutes before they parted. Since Zheng Liqin's suite had many bedrooms, Jiang Lan picked one to be her private chamber and shut herself in.

Now that Miaomiao was left alone, he returned to his bedroom, where he had slept last night.

"Welcome back, master."

Sitting crossed-leg on the king-sized bed was the legal loli, Zheng Liqin, who was still under the influence of Yin Essence intoxication. Her blank eyes and her expressionless face were strangely attractive. Miaomiao had the urge to violate her more.

However, cold Yin Qi enveloped the room. From Miaomiao's perspective, this area was like a freezer storage room. Froze and glacial could be seen on the ceiling, the windows, and the corner of other furniture.

The source of this phenomenon was a blue refined Yin stone on the bed in front of Zheng Liqin. Different from the rough and uneven spirit stone that Miaomiao had, Zheng Liqin's stone was round and smooth like a crystal ball.

"What you're doing, Liqin?"

"Cultivating Yin Qi, master."

The refined stone produced Yin Qi, which was beneficial to female cultivators. However, it influenced the surrounding temperature and turned the bedroom into a freezer.

"Cool. How many strands of Yin Qi or Yin Essence do you have right now?"

"5 Essence and 1,352 Qi strands, master."

Miaomiao raised his eyebrows, confused why her Essence and Qi decreased. From his calculation, Zheng Liqin had obtained 11 Yin Essence. Combined with her previous strength before the dual-cultivation sessions, she should have more essence and qi.

"I thought you have more than that."

"I've used more than half of them to break through, master. I'm now 3rd stage level 5. I was level 3 yesterday."

"Huh?"

Miaomiao thought that a mind-broken girl would stop acting on her own and followed his instructions by every word. But somehow, Zheng Liqin acted on her own and spent her acquired power to get stronger without his order.

'What happened, system? I thought she was a mindless robot. How come she acts on her own?'

>

'Then, how can I stop her? Will my order be sufficient?'

>

'Okay. What's her current status and her limit? Can I see the value?'

*********************************************

[Basic Information]

Name: Zhen Liqin

Cultivation Rank: 3rd Stage Level 5

Status: Yin Cauldron (Temporary)

[Qi Absorption Limitation (Per Day)]

Yin Qi: 5,500

[Available Qi and Essence]

Yin Qi: 1,352 / 55,000

Yin Essence: 5 / 55

*********************************************

.

Miaomiao was astonished by Zheng Liqin's Qi absorption rate. He could only acquire 100 Yang Qi, but this girl could cultivate 5,500 Yin Qi per day. Without adding the Yin Cauldron's characteristic, this girl outperformed his system. But that wasn't his main concern.

Looking at Zheng Liqin's status, Miaomiao still didn't understand. If she spent her available essence and qi to break through, what benefit did she get other than the increase of her cultivation base? Also, where was his yang qi that the system shared with her?

>

"I know. But why her essence and Qi decrease?"

>

Miaomiao rubbed his temples, adjusting his mindset. He thought that Qi and Essence were like MP in RPG games, which could be produced by their bodies or be replenished over time. But the cultivation techniques in this world used them as an internal currency.

Since Qi and Essence were not the same as HP or MP in games, they could not be replenished by just resting. Everyone had to seek for an external resource to replenish their energy, such as spirit stones or spirit drinks.

"So, Qi is like gasoline for cars. Once used, they're lost, and they have to manually recollect them by cultivating?"

>

>

Zheng Liqin consumed the energy to expand her dantian, aka her energy warehouse, so that she could collect more reserved energy for future usage. Moreover, with a stronger cultivation base, losing a bit of essence and Qi was worth the exchange.

The system also explained that the limits were the threshold that Zheng Liqin's body could handle. If she possessed more Qi or Essence than her limitation, she would die because of Qi deviation or Qi poisoning.

Also, if Miaomiao could fill Zheng Liqin's Yin Essence to the maximum, the brainwashing and mind-breaking effect would become permanent.

Miaomiao nodded as he understood the gist of it. Now, he felt like he was playing a city-building game in the form of cultivating.

"I see. So, my future cultivation will be similar to them, right?"

>

Miaomiao rubbed his hands as he knew what he should do. He planned to store as many Essence and Qi for emergency usage. Then, the rest of the excess energy would be kept for upgrades.

But for now, Miaomiao needed to collect more essence and complete Qi Hong's tasks.

"Liqin, can you make this room soundproof and make it warmer?"

"Yes, master."

The loli didn't bother asking why Miaomiao wanted a soundproof room. She covered the entire bedroom with a transparent orange magic formation, and the room temperature rose.

"Is this enough, master?"

"Of course," Miaomiao grinned as he took off his clothes. It was time for intimate activities…
