The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 99 Courtyard Cleaning
The front yard of Momeiyuan, in front of the room.

Chen Jinshu sat cross-legged under the black plum tree for a long time. The incense beside her was half burned, and her spiritual power had also recovered by half.

"The enlightenment tea is finally ready!"

She smelled the aroma of tea, opened her eyes and smiled slightly.

How could I comprehend the Sword Song without the aid of the Lotus Birthmark? The Moon Spirit Honey wasn't quite as effective, so the Enlightenment Tea given by my master was more powerful.

As she drank the enlightenment tea, she began to slowly play the Luqiqin with her hands, while she kept reciting the formula of "Nineteen Falling Tones".

When the golden aura of enlightenment emanated from her sea of ​​consciousness, she immediately absorbed it and quickly comprehended it.

After a moment, she felt something in her heart, and she rubbed the seven strings with her right index finger, while her left hand pressed the two notes of Gong and Shang.

In an instant, a frosty sword energy rose from the piano table and quickly swept forward, its trajectory like the feathers of a snow goose falling as it flew over an icy lake.

Several branches of the black plum tree were quickly cut off, leaving behind a layer of frost.

After a dozen breaths, the surrounding images transformed into cold plum blossoms and falling snow, with both rosy plum blossoms and frosty white snowflakes, and the air around became a little colder.

Some frost also crawled onto her fingers, and she felt the coldness of the sword blade.

"The first move, Brushing Snow and Shocking Swan!"

The moment she played the first move, the name of the move suddenly appeared in her mind.

What frightened her even more was the icy power brought by the first move. Although it only cut off a few branches of the black plum tree, the frost left behind was still chilling.

Even she, as the pianist, felt the coldness, and her hands playing the piano were affected by the image.

Moreover, when she played the first move, she felt extremely calm inside, without any distracting thoughts, as if it had a certain restraining effect on her inner demons.

"The first move might even have the effect of an ice talisman." Chen Jinshu couldn't help but think as he looked at the frost marks left on the black plum tree in front of him.

"Playing the first form consumes the spiritual energy of an entire song. It will probably take a year or two to study the nineteenth form."

She wanted to comprehend the first three moves before the competition and reach the entry level, so that she could win the outer sect competition.

Then she began to focus her mind and use the remaining energy of enlightenment to comprehend the second move.

However, even after her enlightenment energy was exhausted, she still had not comprehended the second move.

"It's still too difficult to comprehend the sword music from the sword technique. I've spent so much enlightenment energy and still haven't comprehended it."

At this moment, she felt a little discouraged.

However, she quickly regained her confidence. Considering the powerful force of the first move, she believed that the second move would be even stronger, so it was understandable that it would consume more energy for enlightenment.

In the blink of an eye, it was three quarters past three in the evening.

She finally used the remaining enlightenment tea to comprehend the second move.

The second move is called Qingluo Baoyue. The little finger hooks and picks the corner string, and the palm is suspended in the air to control the overtones of the frets. When the music is played, the sound waves condense into vine sword energy.

The image of a green forest and a full moon will appear around her. At this time, the green plants around her seem to be able to listen to her commands and transform into swords to attack.

For example, the black plum tree in front of her had branches that could be transformed into whips and sword blades. There were many of them and they were quite powerful.

However, this move consumes more spiritual energy.

After all, music is used as a means to communicate with spiritual plants.

……

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and Chen Jinshu used his free time practicing the piano to comprehend the third move.

The third type of illusion created an extremely large image scene, as if it could pull the opponent into another spatial image, and the surrounding scenes were all changed.

This move is called "Star Falling into the Dark Pool". The back of the fingernails quickly taps to scatter the sound, causing seven aftershocks. Every time the strings are plucked, it seems to pull the opponent into the deep black pool, giving a feeling of sinking out of control.

The image at this moment was a vast, deep, cold pool centered on her. The Big Dipper appeared on the surface, possessing a certain psychedelic power. Sword energy plummeted into the depths like a meteor. However, this move consumed twice as much energy as the previous two combined. Each use consumed half of her spiritual energy. If she combined it with the previous two moves, her spiritual energy would be completely depleted.

However, with these three moves, she is able to deal with cultivators in the late stage of Qi training.

Of course, if it were during the big competition, she would only strive to get the spiritual treasure and a place in the Moon Washing Pool, and she would not care about the ranking.

This way we can retain some means.

At this time, she was practicing the first three moves of the Nineteen Falling Music Moves in the yard. The music was melodious and sharp, and the sword wind kept blowing in the yard.

The disciple token on his waist also made a sound.

She quickly put away her zither and injected a stream of spiritual energy into the token.

Then the voice of Seventh Senior Sister Dai Yuzhu was heard.

"Junior sister! The competition is approaching. Don't get so obsessed with your practice that it harms your health. Come treasure hunt with me."

Upon hearing Senior Sister's invitation to treasure hunt, Chen Jinshu asked suspiciously, "Treasure hunt? But do we have to leave the sect?"

"No! If a disciple of Yaowang Peak leaves or moves to a new courtyard, they will be regularly assigned to clean it. The things inside can be taken away at will by the cleaning disciples, so the sect disciples call this treasure hunting."

"I see! Please wait for a moment, Senior Sister. I still need to prepare."

"I'll wait for you in front of Zhuying Garden."

As Dai Yuzhu finished her last sentence, the token dimmed its light.

"The cleaning of the disciples' courtyards is quite interesting. Maybe we can pick up some interesting objects." Chen Jinshu immediately became interested after learning that the treasure hunt was about finding things in the courtyards of the departed disciples.

Although the disciples living in these courtyards have low cultivation levels, the things inside are unpredictable, especially the courtyard of Peng Qi last time, there might be surprises inside.

She quickly put away the Luqiqin and the incense burner beside it, then returned to the courtyard and put a hairpin on her head.

"Yinshan Tit, come with me." After Chen Jinshu came to the yard, he stopped in front of the Yinshan Tit's nest.

Yinshan Que's luck aura is quite good, maybe it can bring her some luck bonus, allowing her to pick up good things when cleaning the disciples' courtyard.

"Okay, master!" When the Yinshan Que heard that the master was going to take it with him, it immediately turned around excitedly.

"Okay! But you need to change your appearance. Just like you changed last time."

Upon hearing this, the Yinshan Que immediately activated the lotus pattern on its feathers, and then the feathers began to transform into white, and finally turned into a completely white spiritual bird.

The crown feathers on the head also turned white.

She discovered this change in Yinshan Que by accident. She thought the lotus pattern was unusual, so she asked Yinshan Que to try to control it. Unexpectedly, it could change the color of its feathers.

The Yinshan Que at this time was completely different from its original dark appearance, and she might not be able to recognize it even at first glance.

A moment later, Chen Jinshu brought Yinshan Que to Zhuying Garden where he had agreed to meet with his senior sister, and saw Dai Yuzhu already waiting outside.

"Thank you for waiting, Senior Sister!"

"Nothing! But when did you buy a white bird? It's quite pretty."

"This white bird is destined to be with me. I picked it up. I raised it and it turned into this."

"It looks a bit like a Qingyin Que." Dai Yuzhu took a look and the appearance of the Qingyin Que emerged in her mind. The Yinshan Que on Chen Jinshu's shoulder was roughly the same, but there were some differences in appearance.

"Its call is very lively and pleasant, it must be a clear-voiced bird."

"Okay! There are quite a few courtyards to clean today, let's start quickly!" Dai Yuzhu said, and took Chen Jinshu towards the Zhuying Garden in front of them.

She glanced and saw that Dai Yuzhu had more than ten tokens in his hand. It seemed that the conveniences of becoming a disciple of the Jindan Elder were more than that.
