improvement

(Really, is it normal? And which one is my spiritual root? Maybe i can try to make my spiritual root absorb more spiritual qi?)

He didn't wait and immediately control his spiritual root to absorb more spiritual qi.

Suddenly the light rain become a heavy rain, water is flowing down from between the petal of green lotus, and the golden dragon open its mouth and what appear it a drop of water, it grows bigger until eventually the golden dragon drop it to the pond and repeat it again.

Mu xin immediately stop his control and everything back to before.

(All three of them are my spiritual root? Does that mean i can gather spiritual qi three time faster compare to other people? But it seems like the thundercloud gather more that both dragon and lotus)

He looks up at the cloud confusingly.

(Yeah i don't understand so be it)

He starts to walk toward the lotus fully expecting to get wet but he step firmly on top of the water.

(No it's not water, it's my qi, this big pond represents my capacity to store my qi)

He crouches down and scoop up some of his qi.

(Its transparent, no different compare to usual water)

He stands up and walk to the green lotus, It's almost as tall as him, its light green petal seems translucent, the pod in the middle have three holes on it.

(A green lotus, golden dragon, and lightning cloud, i still don't understand what make them special)

He looks confusedly at his own spiritual root.

(Just leave it be, maybe i understand more in the future)

He immediately leaves and open his eye, looking at shu hua already fallen asleep while cuddling him.

He looks down and decide to just close his eye and sleep.

(I didn't want to mind it but she is huge huh, i wonder what her size, alright lets stop there more than that is bad just sleep)

He's struggling to sleep because of distraction, but eventually, he falls asleep.

.

"Mu xin wake up its morning"

Mu xin eye tremble as he opens his eye only to see a crack between two white mounds, he slowly back away and sit up.

(What a trial early in the morning)

"Im going to wash my face"

Mu xin leave the cottage going to the river.

(Now that i think about it, i haven't taken a bath for few days, let's take a dip then)

He took of his only cloth which his short and jump into the river, only to stand back up with a blank expression.

(Sh*t how do i dry myself up now? I shouldn't have jumped in, just quickly clean up first)

He scrub himself with his hand to at least rid himself of dirt, after that, he gets out of the water and put on his shorts while still wet.

(Lets just resume my body refinement and let it dry on its own)

"Mu xin you haven't eat anything yet, and you need to dry up first"

Shu hua is coming with a basket of fruit from the cottage while said so.

"But there's nothing to wipe myself"

Shu hua put down the basket and sit down beside him.

"Just eat first before refine your body, sister help you dry up"

Mu xin can only listen and start eating the fruit, while suddenly the water on his body slowly evaporate into mist.

"Can you teach me how to do this sister hua?"

"Finish refining your body first"

She pat mu xin head as she said so.

Mu xin stay quiet and just keep eating, after he's done he starts to refine his body again.

He starts to control his qi and warp his internal organs, the qi wrap around his internal organs, slowly penetrating it.

Mu xin body is trembling greatly from pain, even breathing is somewhat painful.

(It feels like I'm being squeeze from inside, i don't think i can endure it if i try to force it, i just take it slow)

With this he no longer dare to forcibly push the qi to accelerate the process, he's starting to refine his body slowly from then on.

Four day pass and mu xin done with his internal organ refinement, his internal organ has no visual change, but its firmness of cant be underestimated, those who don't know might think it was made of thick rubber.

The next day he starts to refine his skin, as his qi is slowly seeped into his skin, he feels hot all over his body like someone just pour a bucket of hot water, when he tried to force it he feels like being burned alive so he immediately decides to do it slowly.

Another four day pass by and his skin refinement is complete, now his skin is smooth and tender, but it is tougher than rock.

(I see now, i was curious why my physical strength didn't increase much, turn out just because having qi doesn't instantly making you can lift a hundred of kilogram weigh, one still have used it to make the body stronger to handle the flow of qi, my bone marrow is producing a better quality blood which in turn being further nurtured by my organ after passing by, and the blood will nurture the muscle, basically a chain reaction, this way my body will become stronger following my increasement in cultivation realm, i can feel that my qi is moving so much easier and faster, i can use my palm technique better)

He walks to the tree and give it a normal punch, the tree breaks apart and feel down, while his hand is fine not even a scratch.

"Mu xin, now that your body refinement is done, you want to go to city? Or you want to do something else?"

Mu xin ponder this question with a hard look.

"No, can't go to the city yet, we stay here for a while more, i would like to practice and fight with wild beast to gain more battle experience"

Mu xin said so resolutely.

(All i have is brute strength, i need experience and practice)

"Then we can stay here, if mu xin want to fight with wild beast sister can help find it"

Shu hua give a supportive smile at mu xin, she follows and agree at all his decision.

(Really, I'm starting to like her more, even though she might be using me, maybe I'm easy?)

With that the day of practice start for mu xin.
