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

Chapter 18: I won the grand prize!
Busy traveling and resting at noon, Qi Xuan didn't check how many popularity points he had accumulated.

To be honest, he's already used to earning four or five billion coins per live stream.

But four or five Bs only give you four or five chances to draw the lowest-level prize, and you won't get anything good.

So he plans to see if his daily income can exceed ten. If it does, he can use the higher-level bronze lottery.

If he can't break ten, that's fine too. It's fate, so he'll just draw them all.

He certainly wouldn't let the lottery chance be saved for the next day.

"Prizes are not available if not drawn overnight."

Qi Xuan opened the lottery page.

In the upper right corner, there is a bright and clear 9B.

"If that's fate, then we can only try nine times."

Qi Xuan clasped his hands together, faced the sea of ​​mist, and said with a devout expression:
"May the most beautiful Goddess Shiji bless me and let me draw something good."

After the ceremony ended, he pressed his right index finger against the illusory pointer and suddenly turned it to the right.

The pointer keeps spinning, but the speed is getting slower and slower.

"No [any kind of materials]."

"No [any kind of materials]."

Perhaps his muttering had the opposite effect, because the pointer eventually stopped steadily in the "Various Materials" section.

Qi Xuan clicked on the light orb with a helpless expression.

There was a "pop" sound.

Something strangely familiar fell into his hands.

This is something my parents often told me to buy when I was a child; it's something that older folks would always grab during disasters; and it's something I often used to cook.

That's right, it's a relative of sugar... salt!

Getting salt is a great start.

This stuff is considered a necessity for humans. In the wild, if you can't get meat, it's hard to get enough salt from plant tubers alone. In fact, even if you can get meat, you often need to supplement your salt intake because the salt in meat may not be enough for humans.

"Again!"

After putting the salt away, Qi Xuan turned the pointer again.

The second draw still landed on the [various materials] category.

What was revealed in the light this time was black pepper powder.

Looking at the black pepper powder in his hand, Qi Xuan's eyes were filled with suspicion.

Could it be... that today is a seasoning special?
He refused to believe it and tried a third time.

Well, this time it still comes down to [various materials].

Fortunately, this time the item drawn was a basin.

It's one of those small metal bowls used for holding rice or vegetables.

"Hmm! Okay, fine then."

"What if I want to have some wild vegetable soup someday? This bowl will come in handy then."

Qi Xuan comforted himself and put the small iron basin away.

When he saw what he drew on the fourth try, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

"White...white pepper powder??!"

"So it wasn't a seasoning special, but a kitchen special??"

He was completely bewildered.

"Come again!"

"I still don't believe it!"

Qi Xuan gritted his teeth and took the fifth time.

Good guy.

Really good guy.

This time, they actually found out he had a whole case of milk!
"It seems this trip is destined to be all about food."

Qi Xuan opened a box at random and, after experiencing the rich milky flavor, found it wasn't so unacceptable.

"Milk is a good thing; drinking it regularly can help you grow taller."

"Although I'm already 1.8 meters tall, I always give people the illusion that I'm only 1.79 meters tall. Maybe I'll be 1.81 meters tall after I finish this carton of milk, hehe, that's 1.81 meters tall!!"

Qi Xuan smiled and put the milk away, then proceeded to draw the next batch.

This time, he deliberately changed the direction, turning the pointer to the left and drawing the prize counter-clockwise.

"Underpants?"

"And they're all disposable underwear?"

"Put it on and take it off as you please? Take it off and throw it away as you please?"

"Great stuff, this is really great stuff!"

Holding the stack of disposable underwear, Qi Xuan was very excited. Although he had become a cultivator and his body was cleaner with less dirt, he still felt uncomfortable wearing the same underwear for a long time because of his old habits. Now that he had this stack, he could wear one every day for a long time.

Maybe by then he'll have pulled out a new pair of underwear.

perfect!

Qi Xuan excitedly started drawing the next card.

But this time, what I won was a bookmark.

"Are you trying to fool your father?!"

Qi Xuan immediately threw the bookmark on the ground.

They even wanted to jump up and stomp on it.

But after his initial anger subsided, he couldn't help but pick up the bookmark again.

"At least it's made of iron."

"What if it's useful later?"

Like a scavenger who would pick up anything and bring it home, he muttered to himself as he put the bookmark back into his personal space.

"Only two draws left."

"If you don't give me something good in these two pulls, then I really can't accept it."

"I'm warning you, my patience is limited!"

Qi Xuan gave a stern warning, then raised his middle finger and pressed the pointer, turning it sharply.

He hadn't even planned to look at the lottery page; he figured he'd just end up in the "various materials" section anyway, and he was used to it.

This time, after the pointer landed on [various materials], it continued to move to the next area.

As the speed decreased and the next area drew closer, Qi Xuan grew increasingly nervous.

"Damn it! Give it your all!"

"This is driving me crazy!!"

Seeing that it was still just a hair's breadth away, Qi Xuan blew on it with all his might.

Whether it was because he actually blew it or the pointer still had momentum, it actually ended up in the [single item] category.

"Holy crap! It exploded!"

Qi Xuan jumped up excitedly.

Luckily, he didn't jump off the cliff on the spot.

Afterwards, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Qi Xuan took a few steps back guiltily, but when he saw the burst of light on the lottery page, his expression immediately turned into a beaming smile.

Putting aside the divine cultivation technique that was guaranteed in the first draw, this was the first time he had drawn something other than [various materials].

If he were back on Earth, he would definitely burn incense and bathe, making thorough preparations before activating the light orb.

But now...

Qi Xuan snapped his hand into the ball of light.

The light vanished like flowing water, leaving only a greenish-blue pill in the palm of the hand.

"The Spirit Absorption Pill can accelerate the absorption of spiritual energy after consumption."

Qi Xuan immediately recalled the relevant information.

Considering the scarcity of spiritual energy in the outside world, he was very skeptical about the actual effectiveness of this Spirit Absorption Pill.

"But no matter what, it's the first spiritual item I've ever drawn."

"This at least proves that I am not incapable of drawing good items."

After playing with it for a while, Qi Xuan happily put the Spirit Gathering Pill into his personal space.

This joy continued even after the ninth draw where the telescope was drawn.

Even if there is a tenth draw, and the tenth draw results in a bookmark, he can forgive it very generously.

He's always been a very magnanimous person.

Qi Xuan praised himself for a while, then picked up his binoculars and began to look around at the distant sea of ​​fog.

It must be said that this telescope can see quite far, even those creatures active in the fog...

"Holy crap! What the hell is that?!"

He caught sight of a pterosaur-like monster moving through the mist, and his finger suddenly stopped.

Immediately, the pterosaur seemed to sense something and turned its head, its golden eyes seemingly able to see him even from a thousand meters away.

"What the hell! It can detect me from this far away?"

Qi Xuan suddenly squatted down, his heart pounding so hard it almost jumped out of his throat.

"There are no obstructions here, the view is unobstructed, it's not a good place to stay, I'm outta here."

With this thought in mind, he no longer hesitated and quickly ran back the way he came.
