In the following days, Mo Tian Ge continued to cultivate on one hand and curiously tried to find out the secret of the crystal beads in his hand.
The string of beads didnt look particularly valuable, so she wore it on her hand without anyone asking her anything. Those who knew understood that this was a keepsake from her mother, and those who didnt know didnt think it was strange either. In other words, to others, the string of beads was just an ordinary glass bead.
Mochen thought back to that days experience, thinking it was the reason for her tears. She rubbed her eyes and got some tears on her beads, but there was no reaction. But other than that, nothing special happened that day.
She sat there in a daze, staring at the still transparent glass bead in her hand.
These beads feel cool to the touch and have a somewhat spiritual feeling. Apart from that, they are very hard, no matter what she uses to hit them, there isnt even a single crack.
She couldnt think of a reason, so she sat cross-legged again, closed her eyes and started practicing.
The spiritual energy has already appeared in her body, and she slowly follows the method described in the manual to learn how to control the spiritual energy.
For the first time, she tried to control her spiritual energy, but it was very difficult. The spiritual energy ran through her meridians and dantian, and she couldnt control it at all. She could only guide it to run the Small Heavenly Cycle first, and then continue to try to control it after getting used to it slowly.
Now, because she has spiritual energy in her body, she can also feel the spiritual energy outside her body. However, the spiritual energy around her is extremely thin and almost imperceptible. Therefore, her cultivation from now on will still be useless effort, and the spiritual energy she absorbs wont even amount to a single thread.
Realizing this, Mochen Ge stopped his cultivation.
Since cultivation is useless, lets first uncover the secret of this string of pearls.
She firmly believed that this was a treasure left by her father, and it must be an extraordinary object, only she didnt know how to use it.
Suddenly an idea struck her, since it was a treasure, she might as well use her spiritual energy to probe it.
She thought so and continued to cultivate, only this time she mobilized the spiritual energy and slowly released it. This required a great deal of effort to control the spiritual energy within her body.
Until she barely managed to control the spiritual energy, Mo Tian Ge was already drenched in sweat. However, she didnt plan on resting first but instead began gathering her spiritual energy and channeling it out of her body through her meridians.
At the moment when the spiritual energy touched the crystal bead, a look of horror suddenly appeared on her face.
Because she found that her spiritual energy was out of control.
As soon as the spiritual energy touched the crystal bead string, it rushed into the beads like crazy, and she completely lost control. Suddenly, her dantian was in severe pain. It turned out that the spiritual energy she had gathered with great difficulty was all sucked away by the beads!
She was shocked and lost color, didnt have time to think much, too painful, lost consciousness.
This time, the coma was very brief.
When Mo Tian woke up, he found that it was still dark outside, with only a faint moonlight shining through the window.
She sat up and thought of her spiritual energy, so she quickly sat in meditation. This time, however, she found that the spiritual energy inside her dantian was not only intact but had also increased by a small amount.
Her mind was slightly calmed, and the more she thought about it, the happier she became. Was this pearl something that required spiritual energy to activate? But then why did spiritual energy emerge that night when she hadnt done anything?
She became more and more confused, until unintentionally discovered the beads on her hand under the moonlight emitting a soft glow, her heart moved, and she moved the beads back and forth in the moonlight. Indeed, when the moonlight shone on the beads, they would be slightly brighter, without the moonlight, they were very dull.
Was it because of the moonlight that night that the spiritual energy came out?
With a goal, its easier to verify.
The Tian Ge separated for several days to experiment and found that the pearl would be covered with a layer of hazy luster under the moonlight. Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be a layer of white gas. After a period of time, the pearl would slowly dim down, at which point if she held this string of pearls, spiritual energy would be generated inside her body. It seemed that the pearl had absorbed the moonlight and converted it into spiritual energy, which was then transmitted to her.
She tried not to absorb the moonlight, carefully releasing a very small amount of spiritual energy. As expected, after a while, that spiritual energy slowly returned to her body, and there was more of it.
She was overjoyed when her idea was verified.
This string of pearls seems to collect spiritual energy, so she can use these pearls for cultivation and doesnt have to worry about lacking spiritual energy anymore!
Having understood the use of Luliu Pearl, Mo Tian Ges cultivation became faster and faster. With an excellent technique, having a source of spiritual energy, plus daily diligent practice, the spiritual energy in her body grew more and more abundant.
The three people who understood her changes were: Lin Shu, whom she helped with chores every day and became more agile and efficient; Tian Qiao, who was originally taller and stronger than her but eventually caught up in height; and Old Master, who would explain the intricacies of their craft to her when she asked, but never questioned where her newfound understanding came from. Sometimes, he would look at her with a complex gaze that seemed both relieved and nostalgic.
She gradually stopped thinking about her mother and her current situation, and day after day she read books, worked, and cultivated herself.
Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
In these three years, Mo Tian Ge has grown a lot. She is now even taller than Tian Qiao, her figure is no longer weak and frail, her complexion is fair and smooth, and her features are more defined.
She was originally a delicate child, only because she had been eating without oil and water for many years, which made her face yellow and thin, looking dull and dirty. Now her complexion is fair and her skin is smooth, especially her whole body has an elegant demeanor, as if she has a spirit, at first glance, it makes people feel not ordinary.
In these three years, she has read all the books in the study room and no longer needs to attend school. Tianqiao also stopped going to school at the request of her aunt and instead learned domestic skills every day. Although her aunt did not teach her directly, she became very skilled through practice and observation, learning even faster than Tianqiao. Gradually, her aunt asked her to stop helping Lin Daiyu with chores and instead accompany Tianqiao in learning domestic skills, often giving guidance to Tianqiao.
But these were just embellishments in her life; every nights cultivation was what truly mattered.
Over the past three years, she had become increasingly familiar with the string of pearls, and her cultivation had also become easier. After a year of cultivation, more and more spiritual energy had gathered in her dantian, and suddenly an unusual change occurred. All the meridians in her body seemed to have been opened up, and those spiritual energies wandered around her body before settling down in her dantian, no longer floating aimlessly.
According to her cultivation method, she knew that she had finally entered the threshold of cultivating immortality and reached the first level of Qi Refining.
In the following two years, she continued to practice without stopping. Just in these few days, she felt that she had reached another limit and was about to break through again.
