I've already reached the Nascent Soul stage, and you're saying I didn't time travel?

Chapter 13: Five Consecutive Draws!
Five times is normal.

After all, he streamed live for a full hour that afternoon.

It was half an hour longer than in the morning.

However, there were three more chances to win prizes in the afternoon, which clearly indicates that the average popularity of the afternoon live stream was higher.

Given the immense impact of the giant octopus, this boost is entirely understandable.

So, will we be doing a live stream of the giant octopus again tomorrow?

Qi Xuan hesitated for a moment.

But it was only for a moment.

The most important thing in life is to know yourself; he has no chance against the giant octopus.

Even if getting close to it wouldn't necessarily result in an attack from the giant octopus, he would never gamble on that probability.

Once you sit at the gambling table, you've already lost.

Besides, there's no need for that at all. With the system in place, you can focus on developing your character without having to take on excessive risks in pursuit of short-term gains.

What, are you in such a hurry to see Meng Po?
Withdrawing his fantasies about Meng Po, Qi Xuan focused his attention on the lottery disc.

"Whose card will we choose today?"

"Since we just thought of Meng Po, let's go with Ksitigarbha."

"Thank God, I drew something good!"

Qi Xuan suddenly turned the pointer.

a circle.

Two laps.

Three laps.

The pointer spun slowly and steadily.

Finally, it stopped at the "Various Materials" section.

Looking at the small ball of light that burst out from the disc, Qi Xuan lazily tapped it.

The ball of light dissipated, and a round, fluffy thing landed in his arms.

"WTF?"

He picked up the bundle with a puzzled look on his face.

With a grab and a shake, what appeared before my eyes was a bright orange sleeping bag.

Weighing 1030 grams, with a 10D nylon plain weave lining that is skin-friendly, a 7D nylon grid pattern on the outside that is breathable, and filled with 97% water-repellent white goose down... a series of parameters that dazzled Qi Xuan.

To be honest, he doesn't know much about sleeping bags, but this thing feels pretty comfortable, and he guesses it must be expensive, probably costing several thousand.

"Let's try it first."

He unzipped his sleeping bag, took off his shoes, wrapped them around himself, and pulled the zipper up.

Goodness, except for the face, the whole body was covered up inside.

Surprisingly, it's quite warm; I don't feel cramped or stuffy at all.

Even though he has now become a cultivator, his tolerance to the environment has greatly increased.

But if you can be more comfortable, why force yourself to suffer?
Is it better to be wrapped in a sleeping bag than to have mosquitoes crawling all over your body?

The only drawback of this thing is that it's not very suitable for cultivation.

After all, you can't meditate even if you're wrapped up like a silkworm cocoon.

However, considering the terrible cultivation environment and extremely poor cultivation efficiency last night, it would be better to get some sleep and rest well before getting up to cultivate earlier.

Since I have the Chaos Limitless Spiritual Root, I can absorb spiritual energy and cultivate passively even when I'm sleeping, although the cultivation speed will be a little slower than when I'm actively meditating.

But there's no need to push yourself too hard.

"is acceptable."

"It's quite practical."

Qi Xuan put away the sleeping bag and then started drawing again for the second time.

As the clock ticked, his mood fluctuated accordingly.

Finally, the pointer slowly fell into the [various materials] section.

"Sigh, it seems I didn't spin the pointer hard enough. If I had spun it a little more, it would have ended up in the [One-Time Item] section."

Qi Xuan sighed and clicked on the glowing orb that popped up on the lottery disc. A spool of white fishing line.

Seeing the fallen object, Qi Xuan was speechless.

Under normal circumstances, fishing lines are quite useful in the wild. Even when used only with bait, they can yield a large amount of protein. However, looking at the terrifying octopus monster he had seen in the distance, Qi Xuan was very doubtful. If they really started fishing, it was hard to say who would be the prey.

"But even putting fishing aside, fishing line is still a very useful tool and can be used in many places, so this draw wasn't a bad deal."

After consoling himself, Qi Xuan started drawing again.

He roughly gestured in front of the lottery wheel, pressed his finger on the pointer, and spun it sharply to the right.

Circle after circle.

Circle after circle.

Finally, after leaving the [various materials] area, it slowly passed through other areas and then damn well turned back in.

"Looks like I used a bit too much force this time."

Qi Xuan clapped his fingers, then tapped the ball of light.

What was exposed was a long, block-shaped object.

"chocolate?!"

"Good stuff!"

"What a good thing!"

After not eating normal food for two days in a row, he really missed chocolate, potato chips, spicy strips and the like.

Qi Xuan happily unwrapped the chocolate and took a bite.

Ah, this richness, this smoothness, this slight bitterness—this is the taste of civilization!

In an instant, he felt as if he had returned to a modern city, as if he had returned to that afternoon when he was enjoying air conditioning, drinking milk tea, and playing games.

But as the chocolate slowly disappeared from his mouth, the sweet bubble of fantasy finally burst, turning into cold reality—fast forward to the little boy selling nuclear bombs.

Qi Xuan sighed softly and casually turned the hands.

Unsurprisingly, the pointer eventually landed on the [various materials] category.

Clicking on the light, what appeared this time was a tube of toothpaste.

"It's not impossible."

"I already took out my toothbrush, so now that I've got a tube of toothpaste, it'll be a complete set."

"When will you give me the towels and bath towels? It would be best to also get a bathtub, a photovoltaic power generation system, and a solar water heater... That way, we can live a modern life in the forest."

After storing the toothpaste in his personal space, Qi Xuan calmly began the final puff.

He didn't even look at where the pointer finally landed; he just randomly clicked on the ball of light.

What I picked up was a surprisingly heavy object.

Qi Xuan glanced at it and his eyes lit up.

Good guy.

Really good guy.

This is actually a tactical folding knife.

Although it is only the length of a regular dagger, the blade is made of a significantly stronger and more durable material, making it less prone to breakage. Combined with its wavy blade and dragon tooth serrations, it is suitable for a wide range of situations. Moreover, when not in use, it can be folded into the handle to reduce damage.

Qi Xuan held it up and down several times, clearly quite fond of it.

Overall, although he didn't win any special rewards like spirit plants or spirit ore in today's lottery, the prizes were still quite practical and very suitable for his current environment.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Qi Xuan decided not to waste any more time and began to look for branches and thick sticks around him to build a hut in a relatively dry place.

There was no other way; the tree hollow was too cramped. He could meditate, but he couldn't sleep standing up, so he had to build a shed.

Setting up the shelter was originally quite troublesome, but now that he has fishing line and a tactical folding knife, it has saved him a lot of time.

After setting up the hut, he took out the mosquito-repelling and insect-repelling ox-tooth grass and placed it at the entrance. He also placed several insect-trapping bottles woven from Luo Huan grass and sprinkled some poison from the secret pomegranate nearby.

After finishing his preparations, he washed up and curled up in his sleeping bag.

"Finally, I can get a good night's sleep tonight."

Qi Xuan closed his eyes, his consciousness gradually fading:
"Tomorrow, let's explore the east in a different direction and hopefully find something worthwhile."
