Balance Between Work And Rest, A Scientific Cultivation!

It was simple reasoning.

If the fifty thousand was considered 'luck', Qi Zixiao would only have to sense 'luck', locate its whereabouts and search in that direction.

But if that wanted criminal was considered 'danger', she would head in that direction.

"The possibility of 'danger' might not be high, but it's not impossible."

From the wanted post, the criminal should prefer attacking girls. Although Qi Zixiao was now a 'man', there was no guarantee she could apprehend him unscathed.

Qi Zixiao's final decision was to get started on training the Fluid Body ability before going.

That way, it would be safer.

It was a murderer after all. Qi Zixiao could not be certain if he would be a threat to her. Since that was the case, she naturally had to develop herself to increase her chances.

Moreover, according to Qi Zixiao's understanding thus far, she realized that while this world had fascinating things like cars, phones, televisions, and such, no one was cultivating.

At least she had never sensed one.

In other words, at an amateur level, it would be enough for her to be invincible.

This was also the reason why she memorized Fluid Body, a physical cultivation technique.

Although physical cultivation was also considered cultivation, there was a huge difference compared to the traditional immortal cultivation. The biggest point was reliance on Spirit Qi.

For immortal cultivation, if there was no Spirit Qi, it was impossible to get started.

But physique cultivation was different!

Physique cultivation was to train one's body. Although in later stages, Spirit Qi was also required to nurture the physical body and such, no Spirit Qi was required at the amateur stage.

At least the Fluid Body technique required none!

Once the initial stage of Fluid Body was attained, it could increase the flexibility of an average body by several times, the cultivator's strength and endurance would also be elevated by countless folds so as to become a raging river, flowing continuously…

With this and her reaction speed, dealing with a criminal of this world should be enough.

Time to put thoughts into action!

Qi Zixiao never procrastinated. Through the map on the phone, once she found the nearest river, Qi Zixiao took off with the phone and keys.

***

We now return to the start of this round's transmigration at the Saintess Chamber in Bright Moon Peak.

The image Qi Zixiao left behind began to 'play'.

"If it's not necessary, don't go outside!"

When she said this, Lin Fan could see that Qi Zixiao was slightly gritting her teeth but he didn't know why…

What's wrong this time?

I didn't expose anything, did I?

This woman… So petty~

"To think I even made you dumplings. There won't be a next time!"

As he mumbled, Qi Zixiao's visage continued to speak.

"Besides this, let me ask you, exactly what have you done with my body these days?

For the past few months, there was no improvement in my cultivation but after you've controlled my body for a mere three days, why can I feel hints of improvement?"

She kept talking with a trace of pride. But in Lin Fan's perspective, it sounded more like she was being pretentious. "For my whole life, I, Qi Zixiao, have never been indebted to anyone. If you can solve my problems, I can promise you one thing. If it's within my abilities, I will complete it for you."

The visage ended here and the 'virtual projection' disappeared.

Lin Fan was toying with the tender spirit stone in his hand as he pondered…

"There's no problem in having me stay inside, to be honest. I never planned on running around anyway."

"As for what did I do to help her improve her cultivation?"

"o((⊙_⊙))o"

Even Lin Fan himself was confused!

What did he do?

Did eating, drinking, and peeing count?

He didn't poo…

Did this help her improve the cultivation that she had struggled a month to work on but showed no results and even became problematic?

As a person with zero knowledge of immortal cultivation, Lin Fan had no idea what happened in between.

But… as a modern man, Lin Fan decided to try explaining things from a different perspective.

For example… science!

"If we think of immortal cultivation as studies and ascension to immortality has university exams…"

"It's like she had been studying day and night relentlessly but saw no improvement."

"After I controlled her body and rested for a few days, she got a better result on the mock exams instead!"

"Perhaps this example is a little inappropriate, but it's not impossible…"

"That's why…"

"This could be an issue of work and rest balance!"

The balance of work and rest.

Blindly working hard to the point of exhaustion would perhaps make things worse.

After taking a break and resting for a few days, suddenly, there was an improvement.

This was definitely not just a random theory.

Be it the mind or body.

Having been in a constant state of tension, at some point in time, one would experience 'exhaustion'. If we continue to be in a tensed state after exhaustion… What advantages would that bring?

However, if one took a break after exhaustion to let the mind and body relax before straining them again to work hard, the improvement would no doubt be more obvious and the effectiveness would increase.

"It must be something like that!"

After pondering for a bit, Lin Fan was overjoyed.

"I really am a genius!"

And so, this chap took a pen and paper to write down a few words.

A balance between work and rest. Cultivate the scientific way!

After writing that, he was still dissatisfied…

"I'm controlling a body that's at the peak of ascension but I don't even know how to leave an afterimage and can only 'write letters'…"

"She's restricting me from going outside casually and I better now run around right now so, why don't we try immortality cultivation?"

"At least I have to learn how to control the innate qi inside this body and how to use spells."

"After all, who knows how long this transmigration will continue. There might be a time where I'm required to use innate qi anyway…"

"I should try to learn how to use the innate qi as fast as possible and how to cultivate immortality."

So, how should he learn to cultivate immortality as soon as possible?

Should he head to the scripture chamber once more?

Seems like there was no need for it…

It's not like Qi Zixiao knew no cultivation methods. One could figure out with their toes that her cultivation methods were, no doubt top-notched!

In other words, what Lin Fan needed now was not a cultivation method or spell manual, he needed to learn how to utilize the innate qi in his body and how to perform spells…

"Come to think of it, this is like asking for experience from someone. Who should I ask?"

Lin Fan's eyes darted around. Soon, he clapped his 'dainty hands'.

"I got it!"

"Don't I have guardian disciples?"

He laughed sneakily. "Let's go with that…"

After a brief moment, the Saintess 'Qi Zixiao's' voice rang from her room.

"Chen Cheng…"

"Your Highness."

Her two disciples immediately paid their respects.

"Both of you have been serving me for a long time now, right?"

"Even since Your Highness became the Saintess, it's been more than three years now…"

"Three years is quite a long time but I've never had the time to test your abilities. I just had this thought today so we shall do it now."

"As a guardian disciple, talent and hard work are indispensable. Inform the other guardian disciples that everyone has to submit an essay of their cultivation perceptions and experiences to me…"

"Besides this, they also need to write down the utilization of innate qi, control theory, and such. The more detailed, the better."

"Yes, Your Highness…" Chen Cheng replied, but her expression had become cold as ice.
