My Daily Cultivation Life with a Clumsy Female Disciple

Chapter 232

Chapter 232

Approaching the Door-Knocking Before the Way was very near.

The enthusiasm of Dao Sword Sect's disciples for cultivation had increased by several orders of magnitude. The frequency of martial arts duels within the sect had multiplied.

...Everyone was striving to enhance their strength a bit more before the Door-Knocking Before the Way.

And in this environment, Li Shiyin could almost fight someone every day, which made her extremely happy.

For example, today...

"Master, I beat up another arrogant idiot from Qi Peak today!" Li Shiyin was very happy to share with Qin Ran, "That one, the sixth on the Geniuses Ranking, what's her name... Ye Qingxuan..."

"Master, do you know?!" She thought of something again and was overjoyed, "That Ye Qingxuan! Her martial arts are illusionary, using clouds and mists to scare people. But I saw through it with my Divine Sight! Haha... Master, you didn't see her dumbfounded expression then. It was so funny."

Ye Qingxuan? Qin Ran thought for a while and remembered this woman. He recalled that her cultivation method seemed to be called Illusory Cloud Deadly Fog, which was indeed illusionary in nature and really restrained by Li Shiyin.

However...

"It was just a casual sparring, right? You didn't call Dong Zhongyuan over." Qin Ran asked Li Shiyin.

"Yeah!" Li Shiyin nodded. If Dong Zhongyuan was called over, their fight would involve rankings on the Geniuses Ranking. She replied, "I guess Dong Zhongyuan is in closed-door training recently. Haven't seen him around."

"That's good then..." Qin Ran nodded. "Illusory Cloud Deadly Fog is not just illusionary. It has combat ability and can injure one's Divine Soul. I guess Ye Qingxuan didn't fight you seriously. You still need to be cautious of her in the future."

As he spoke, he suddenly realized something and asked Li Shiyin, "Why are you always against Qi Peak's disciples?"

"Humph!" Li Shiyin was reminded of He Daoguang's refusal to save them and angrily said, "No one from Qi Peak is a good person."

"How did you come to that conclusion?"

"I just know it!"

After casually chatting with Li Shiyin by the lake and distracting her, Qin Ran then took her to the little wooden house.

So the question is, was Qin Ran really practicing his Earth Escape Art?

Of course not. He had long mastered non-flying escape arts like Earth Escape Art.

What he was doing underground was something more important for him and Dan Peak.

Firstly, would people like Jian Yuanjie who wanted to deal with Dao Sword Sect tamper with the pills given to disciples? Would they make trouble at the Door-Knocking Before the Way where disciples of this generation would all gather?

Secondly, the "Karma" organization was getting closer and closer. Qin Ran's intuition gave him some inexplicable fear of this organization. He always felt that this organization was more frightening than he imagined...

Moreover, Dao Sword Sect had recently organized campaigns to eradicate this organization.

Due to the above two matters, Qin Ran had no choice but to start preparing the next means of escape — setting up the teleportation formations that he had been researching over the years!

So where in Dan Peak was suitable to set up teleportation formations now?

After thinking it over, Qin Ran concluded it should be underground.

So in recent times, he had opened up an underground space deep beneath the Extreme Demon Weeping Willow by Sword Washing Lake. He planned to use this secret underground space to set up his large-scale teleportation formations.

The reason Long Qiqi felt something off in the greenhouse was because when Qin Ran excavated the underground space, most of the dug out soil was dumped into the greenhouse... The increased soil in the greenhouse made her feel something was off.

Chasing the Wind was taking a nap under the old spiritual elm tree. The huge white cat lay there like a snow mountain.

If Chasing the Wind was standing on all fours now, he would be around adult height... And he was still a youth, still growing.

Qin Ran walked over, disliked seeing him like this, and went over to kick him awake.

"Dad, why did you do that!" Chasing the Wind covered his eyes with his big paws, preparing to flip over and continue napping.

"Have you finished today's homework?" Qin Ran glared at him and asked, "Sleeping all day long, look at who's as lazy as you!"

Chasing the Wind's paws covering his eyes unconsciously shifted up to cover his ears.

"What, you don't want to listen to me anymore now, right?!" Qin Ran was so angry he went over to kick him again, "I'll see when you can set up a proper formation! Learned it for three years and can't even distinguish basic directions. If I were you, I'd bash my head in with a block of tofu and be done with it!"

Chasing the Wind reluctantly sat up leaning against the old spiritual elm. He yawned continuously for seven to eight times, still feeling not awake enough. He lazily tilted his head over and saw Li Shiyin covering her mouth, giggling.

He suddenly felt wronged, gestured with his mouth at Li Shiyin, and said, "Shiyin can't concoct pills either!"

Both he and Li Shiyin were learning one pill concocting and one formation, but now neither had learned them. Why was Dad only scolding him and not Shiyin?!

"Shiyin has learned to see flaws, find weaknesses. How about you?" At this point Qin Ran had sat down, drinking wake-up tea, and studying the large-scale teleportation formations to set up later.

What had Chasing the Wind learned? He had learned which direction to face when eating to make the food tastier...

"I should take back your pass item!" Qin Ran glanced at the kitty pass hanging around Chasing the Wind's neck and said, "Come back out when you've thoroughly researched the Guardian Mountain Formation yourself!"

"Oh yes, great idea!" Li Shiyin gleefully agreed.

"Ah, Dad!!" To research the Guardian Mountain Formation, he'd have to die. He wouldn't even necessarily figure it out in his lifetime! Chasing the Wind hurriedly crawled in front of Qin Ran and pitifully pleaded, "Dad! Don't... I won't be able to get out and will die."

Was this the ferocious demon king?

Seeing him made Qin Ran even angrier. He stretched out his leg and kicked him in the face, scolding, "Hurry up and do your homework! Don't show up before me if you can't do it well! The more I see you the more annoyed I get!"

How could he be so cute when young but so smackable now?

"Sigh!" Life was hard, the cat sighed.

Chasing the Wind slowly crawled up again and wandered off towards the back mountain.

Chasing the Wind's current place of learning was essentially in the cave manor on the back mountain. And often the one teaching him was not Qin Ran, but Tushan Youyou.

As fellow high-level demonic beasts, Tushan Youyou could teach better.

More often Qin Ran played the role of the parent of a problem child... Fortunately just the parent. If he had to be both teacher and parent, his brain would definitely explode from anger.

After scolding Chasing the Wind, Qin Ran looked towards Li Shiyin. Li Shiyin immediately sat properly.

"Have you integrated all your sword arts?" He asked.

"Mm-hmm!" Li Shiyin nodded. "Battle Spirit Art has reached the fifth level. My Divine Sight has new insights too."

"Good then..." Qin Ran nodded and said, "Go read."

In fact, he was conflicted about whether to teach his newly revised Evil Vanquishing Divine Soul Devouring Skill to Li Shiyin.

He had obtained the complete version of this devil art from Liu Xiaoji and then deconstructed it. Considering Dan Peak's nameless Soul Tempering Verse, he had rearranged it into a new cultivation method.

But he decided to practice it himself first to confirm there were no issues before teaching Li Shiyin.

Master and disciple sat in front of the little wooden house under the old spiritual elm reading. One was reading, the other watching the reading one.
