Luo feng smiled when he saw Bai Yiyi so happy.
"Yi Yi, do you remember what happened before?"
"I don't remember. I only know that I went out to play with my parents, then we encountered bandits, and then I ended up in here," Bai Yiyi said, pointing to the Soul Gathering Banner in Luo feng's hand.
Luo feng felt a little strange. Generally speaking, only third-tier Ghosts possess intelligence like ordinary people. Could it be that Yi Yi is some special Ghost?
After some probing, Luo feng was basically certain that, apart from her intelligence, Bai Yiyi was just an ordinary Ghost and had no special abilities.
However, this was also related to Luo feng's limited knowledge.
He thought that if he had the chance, he would go to the Ghost Control Sect's Scripture Pavilion to look, and perhaps he could find records about this. As for now, he could only hide Bai Yiyi. If the cultivators of the Ghost Control Sect found out, he might even lose his own life.
"Yi Yi, you must never show any signs of intelligence in front of outsiders. You must pretend to be an ordinary Ghost, understand?"
"Master, what is an ordinary Ghost like? Yi Yi has never seen one, so I don't know how to pretend," Bai Yiyi asked, somewhat confused.
Luo feng suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to have seen one either.
But it would be too embarrassing to say so.
"Well, anyway, just don't talk, and have a blank stare."
After discussing with Bai Yiyi what an ordinary Ghost was like, he finally decided not to let Bai Yiyi out when other people were present.
"Alright, Yi Yi, you go in first. I'm going to Cultivate now," Luo feng said, intending to activate the Soul Gathering Banner with his spiritual energy.
"Master, can I stay outside for a while? It's too dark inside, and I don't want to go in."
"No," Luo feng said with a stern face.
After all, this was within the Ghost Control Sect. If a powerful cultivator were to glance over and discover Bai Yiyi, it would be troublesome. His small wooden house was not like Manager Li's, which had the protection of a Formation, making it difficult for outsiders to peek inside.
He surveyed his small wooden house; many places were still drafty, and in some spots, one could even see the interior through cracks.
"Alright," Bai Yiyi, seeing that Luo feng seemed to be angry, reluctantly returned to the Soul Gathering Banner.
After seeing Bai Yiyi return, Luo feng poured magical power into the Soul Gathering Banner, and instantly, all the black mist in the room was drawn back into the Soul Gathering Banner.
A Ghost with too much intelligence isn't entirely a good thing; she even knows how to act spoiled.
But it's quite interesting. He had always wanted a daughter, but he never expected to achieve it in another world, Luo feng sighed.
In his previous life, he was slightly envious when he saw others with their daughters.
Luo feng sensed the extent of his Spiritual energy consumption. Just simply activating the Soul Gathering Banner consumed about half of his Spiritual energy. He didn't know what the original owner was thinking, to actually buy such a Spiritual Artifact.
If it were any other Low Grade Spiritual Artifact, the spiritual energy consumption wouldn't be this severe. Fortunately, the material of this Soul Gathering Banner was decent enough to be used as a defensive Spiritual Artifact.
He closed his eyes and began to circulate the Profound Water Art to restore his spiritual energy.
Then, he continued to practice the Water Bullet Technique.
After several days of experimentation, Luo feng found that it was best to have an enlightenment for the same Spell or Cultivation Technique every few days, as the effect would be better.
Having enlightenment for three consecutive days actually had a similar effect to having two enlightenment over two days. He needed time to digest what he gained from the enlightenment, and at the same time, the digested knowledge would become nourishment for the next enlightenment.
An enlightenment is the process of organizing and gaining a deeper understanding of what one has learned or known before.
The more one knows or understands, the better the effect of the enlightenment.
Based on this discovery, Luo feng adjusted his Cultivation method. Previously, he would have enlightenment for the same Spell for several consecutive days, and then switch to another.
Now, he changed it to: on the first day, he had an enlightenment for the Water Bullet Technique; on the second day, he continued to practice the Water Bullet Technique and had an enlightenment for the Light Body Technique; on the third day, he practiced the Light Body Technique and had an enlightenment for the Water Bullet Technique. On the fifth day, he had an enlightenment for the Light Body Technique and practiced the Water Bullet Technique, and so on, in a cycle.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed quickly.
If only there could be a little more time, Luo feng opened his eyes in the early morning. At this moment, his Light Body Technique had reached the Major Achievement stage.
He mobilized the spiritual energy in his body, and instantly, the Light Body Technique was cast.
His body felt about half lighter, and the effect was at least three layers better than the Minor Achievement Light Body Technique. At the same time, the casting speed was faster. Now his life-saving ability was stronger, and he nodded with satisfaction.
After experiencing the effect of the Major Achievement Light Body Technique, Luo feng quickly formed a Spell seal in his hand, and a water ball instantly formed in his hand. He pointed it at the ground and activated it, leaving a deep hole in the spot.
The Water Bullet Technique had also reached the Minor Achievement stage, which meant he had a certain degree of self-preservation ability within the Early Qi Refinement Stage.
With his current magical power capacity, Luo feng could cast ten such Water Bullet Techniques.
But it should be enough to deal with enemies in the Early Qi Refinement Stage. The difference between the first three layers is not particularly great; there are many who can fight across ranks. The further one goes, the greater the difference between each layer becomes.
By the Late-Stage Qi Refinement, the total spiritual energy capacity in the body is greater. Even if each layer only differs by one or two tenths of it, that one or two tenths is more than Luo feng's current total spiritual energy in his body.
Luo feng looked out the window; the sky was already very bright. He felt that the time was almost up.
Luo feng hurried in the direction of Manager Li. Today was the last day of the month, and he had to get the leaving permit from Manager Li.
Otherwise, leaving without permission would result in being killed by the guard Disciples at the foot of the mountain.
Luo feng, using the Light Body Technique, moved much faster this time than last. In less than ten minutes, he arrived in front of Manager Li's courtyard.
He skillfully knocked on the door.
Dong. Dong.
He had originally thought it would be the same servant boy from before who would open the door, but to his surprise, the courtyard gate opened automatically this time.
"Come in,"
Manager Li's voice came from inside.
He walked in and found Manager Li sitting in the courtyard, drinking tea.
"Luo feng, greetings to Manager Li," Luo feng respectfully bowed to the old man in front of him.
Although he disliked him in his heart, Luo feng dared not reveal the slightest on the surface.
"Luo feng, you've come at just the right time; it saves me the trouble of looking for you. Here is your permit," Manager Li threw a wooden token to Luo feng.
"Oh, right. Since you're leaving, hand over your servant's identity token."
"Yes,"
Luo feng took off his servant token and respectfully handed it to Manager Li.
Seeing Luo feng so cooperative, Manager Li also showed a slight smile.
"There are 17 Spirit Stones here in total. 5 of them are your remuneration for this month, and the other 12 are the promised reward," Manager Li took out a pile of Spirit Stones from his gray Storage Pouch and placed them on the table.
