Purifying Qi & Getting Close (part 1)

All the voices of doubt and envy can be heard in the village. Some of them were sceptical while some of them were impressed. The people of Wenmin's previous family were mocking him. Saying that a ger can't even do business, his business must fall out at the end. While Xinyi was happy, yes with a little bit of jealousy. He also wanted to make his own money.

Wenmin and Heihei were enjoying their dinner, he was quite happy that he has money now without having to be frugal. He knows how to save money but to do what he wants in the future, he has to have money. Spending money to buy things and generate income from that is what Wenmin decided to do.

Truthfully, Wenmin was a bit lost on how to do business. He was a literature student, he didn't have any talent or knowledge when it comes to business. However, since this is ancient times, the only thing Wenmin has is his knowledge of books. If he can achieve his goal, then he can still do what he wants.

So much has been going on, and Wenmin was exhausted. He lay on his bed while closing his eyes. 'It's time for me to start my cultivation. Since I've managed to cover the first three stages, I might as well start levelling up.' Wenmin decided to start with the fourth stage, purifying qi.

Since he's a novice, he can't do much and just follow the instructions in the book. It says that sounds can help to focus when you are purifying qi. Breathing sounds can help too. Is this why some people, when cultivating, will enter seclusion to enhance their five senses?

'I don't have anything that can help me concentrate right now. Will my breathing sound helps?' Wenmin sits down, back straight and began to steady his breath. He began to concentrate on his qi circulation and detecting the toxins in his body.

Usually, there are toxins in our body that we excrete through sweat or excretion. But the number of leftover toxins will remain in our bodies. Purifying qi helps to push out those toxins for better qi circulation in our meridians.

Wenmin knew about this when he was reading those murim manhwas. Usually, when the toxins were pushed out, it will create a foul smell and dirty substances would also be visible. He focuses hard and found toxins in his body.

He circulated his qi while still maintaining his breathing, he could feel some parts of his body begin to feel less burdened. He couldn't tell it, but the sweat that came out from his body was smelly. Heihei can't stand it and distance himself from Wenmin.

It took a few hours before Wenmin felt like there were no more toxins in his body. He stopped his cultivation once he achieved stage 4. Though it may sound easy when you're purifying qi, but it took a lot of energy to circulate and push out the toxins.

Wenmin is a newbie, it is understandable as his body is still new to qi and so on. When he opened his eyes, he could see his skin got a lot whiter and it seems glossier. Like you're wearing a high-class moisturiser or body lotion. It took a few minutes before he could smell something awful and realise it was from the sweat that he let out.

He rushed to shower himself and put the dirty clothes inside a basket. He'll wash the clothes tomorrow. After he changed himself and his bedsheet, Wenmin decided to sleep and discussed with Xinyi about adding a few more workers tomorrow.

Unbeknownst to him, while he was purifying qi, Jiahao who was also cultivating inside his room could sense a qi flow from the direction of Wenmin's house. He opened his eyes, and look in that direction. With his palm rubbing his chin, he thought that Wenmin is becoming more and more interesting.
