Unsurpassed Spirits

Chapter 21 Stronger
After a day of ironing, even though there are physical exercises to relieve the pressure that the muscles and bones have to bear, now that I have relaxed, I still feel soreness.

But physical pain like this is a process that requires physical training. There is no other shortcut but to endure it day after day.

Luo Qingli sat cross-legged and circulated the spiritual power in his body according to the physical training method over and over again. After a few weeks, the soreness slowly disappeared and was replaced by a full sense of strength.

Then she continued to open up her meridians.

In the cellar before, Luo Qingli accidentally opened up the Chong meridians, but this was mainly because her Chong meridians had been slightly loose before. After the Qi was introduced, the spiritual energy accumulated in the meridians had nowhere to go, so she spontaneously penetrated. Entering the strange scriptures, and now even if she wants to use the same method to break through in one fell swoop, she must first loosen the soil of these two strange scriptures.

Luo Qingli took the trouble to use her spiritual power to attack the Du Vein. When it was almost dawn, she silently closed her hand, shook her head and sighed.

The Du Vein is many times stronger than the Chong Vein, and even after midnight, it didn't shake at all.

However, Luo Qingli was not discouraged and took his time.

There was still some time before Mao Shi, and Luo Qingli took out a jade slip. It was the illustrated guide to the spiritual mines given to her by Yan Chao.

All commonly used or well-known spiritual minerals are recorded in the illustrated book, from appearance, properties, extraction methods to origin, which is very suitable for reference samples for novices like her.

Luo Qingli jotted down a few things and then went to the kitchen to start preparing breakfast.

She washed some spiritual rice, cut some spiritual vegetables and spiritual meat, put it into a casserole, added water and simmered slowly. The painful lesson of cooking last night made her pay attention to the heat. Just waiting for the pot of porridge to boil, the spiritual rice was It was cooked just right, but the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual vegetables and spiritual meat was almost gone due to the long cooking time.

"Breakfast ready?"

Yan Chao's voice sounded from behind, and Luo Qingli suddenly had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, when Yan Chao saw the pot of porridge in the casserole, he clicked his tongue twice in disgust and took out the jade slip, "The wasted ingredients will be deducted from your salary!"

"..." To be honest, you just let me cook just to have a reason to deduct wages.

Luo Qingli could only order another pot of strange-tasting porridge by himself, and then went to the front hall to continue blacksmithing.

The days were spent in such repeated knocking. Luo Qingli's forging skills improved to a higher level, and even his cooking skills improved a lot. At least Yan Chao was finally willing to eat what she made, but in Before this, she wasted a lot of ingredients, and sometimes there was loss when Yan Chao asked her to extract the spirit minerals. These were all recorded in Yan Chao's notebook, so that when settling wages in the first month, Luo Qingli returned I owe him five spiritual stones.

"The spiritual stones you owe will be deducted from your salary next month. If you don't want to do it, just pay off the spiritual stones and leave." Yan Chao took the abacus to calculate and came to this conclusion.

Luo Qingli: "..."

Who can be like her, who comes to work and not only makes no money, but also pays back!

However, Luo Qingli had no intention of leaving. Although she came here for the purpose of making money, part of the reason was to practice physical training. Now her muscles are much stronger than when she first started.

Probably because she was in contact with forging every day, the look on her face gradually became firmer.She used charcoal to trace and thicken her eyebrows. She really looked like a young boy, and Yan Chao would rarely say that she was neither fish nor fowl.After getting along with each other for a month, Luo Qingli felt that although Yan Chao spoke very little, had a bad temper, and was very picky, he still took good care of her, and she could learn a lot from following him. Apart from anything else, at least now Luo Qingli is no longer a layman who can't even tell the types of spiritual minerals, and sometimes helps to refine the ores, which is also training her spiritual consciousness. Even the Ren and Du vessels are gradually loosening. She decided to try to clear these two strange meridians in a few days.

Luo Qingli chose to stay in Bailianju. Yan Chao raised his eyebrows and smiled, but said nothing and went to put the pair of mandarin duck swords he had just completed into the brocade box.

That afternoon, a woman dressed in red walked into the store.The woman is in the early stage of foundation building. She looks like she is only in her 20s. Her appearance is not gorgeous, but she has a heroic spirit that ordinary women do not have.

"Boss Yan, is my knife ready?" The woman half-leaned on the table, looked around, and noticed Luo Qingli who was hammering a piece of fine iron in front of the stove, and asked curiously: "This little brother is a shop owner." An apprentice here?"

"Just a guy who does odd jobs." Yan Chao took out the brocade box and spoke in a nonchalant tone.

The woman looked around a few times, raised her lips and smiled softly, "Looking at the thin and small size, I didn't expect it to be quite strong."

"If she didn't have any strength, I wouldn't have recruited her to the store." Yan Chao handed her the brocade box, "You can see if you're satisfied with it."

The woman turned her attention back to the pair of Yuanyang knives. After observing them for a long time, she smiled and said, "Boss Yan is well-deserved. I am very satisfied with this knife. This is the final payment. Thank you very much. I will come back to do business with you if I have the opportunity in the future."

The woman paid off the spirit stones and put the knife into her storage bag. When she went out, she made a special trip to Luo Qingli. She couldn't hold it back anymore and reached out to pinch her face, "It's so tender!"

"..."

Luo Qingli was stunned, while the woman laughed and walked out of the door.

Yan Chao's expression did not change, but there was a hint of teasing in his eyes. He looked at Luo Qingli, who had a confused look on his face, and coughed lightly, "I asked, have you gained weight?"

Luo Qingli looked down at himself.

She is growing taller with her age, and the long-term forging has caused her muscles to begin to expand. This process is common in physical training. Those pure physical training all have a tall and muscular body, mainly for this reason.

Of course, there is one more step to the Jade Bone Ice Muscle Technique she practiced. With the medicinal bath in the future, these over-expanded muscles will slowly dissolve and turn into spiritual power to further nourish the body. However, Luo Qingli is not there yet. It’s just this stage.

"...I'm just getting stronger." She said dullly.

Yan Chao crossed his arms and looked at her, "Are you planning to become a weapon refiner in the future? There should be no more than a hundred female weapon refiners in this world."

Luo Qingli thought for a while and shook his head, "I don't know either."

She started hammering the fine iron again, "I don't know what I want to do in the future. Now I just want to grow up quickly, but before that, I have to make money to support myself."
