Chapter 672 - 205: [Ordinary Mortal?]

It seemed that in the past few days, Lu Sisi, who no longer focused her attention on cultivation, had completely reverted to the state of an ordinary mortal girl.

She even paused her folding of paper puppets for the past few days.

At night, after Chen Yan coaxed Lu Sisi to bed, he pretended to head to the training room to practice, but after entering the training room downstairs, he jumped into the Mirror World.

·

In the evening, outside in the community within the Mirror World, it was silent——though it was summertime, there were no creatures in the Mirror World, and thus, no sound of summer insects could be heard.

Chen Yan walked on the inner roads of the community under the streetlights, slowly arriving at the entrance of the Yunqiao Great Demon’s place, where he saw a little girl squatting on the steps of the house, blinking her eyes at him.

"Why aren’t you waiting for me inside?" Chen Yan smiled and said.

The little girl glanced at Chen Yan, her eyes moving around: "Accompany me on a stroll around."

Chen Yan didn’t mind either way, so he simply accompanied the little girl out of the community.

After leaving the gate of this villa area, they turned left along the road, and after a few hundred meters, they arrived at a plaza.

At this time, the plaza should have been bustling, with nearby residents coming out to cool off, and families with kids playing.

Of course, there would be no shortage of elderly folks doing plaza dancing.

However, all that bustle was in the real world, whereas the plaza in the Mirror World was silent and empty.

Chen Yan and the little girl sat down by a concrete flower bed on the side of the plaza.

"You came looking for me a few days ago?" the little girl asked.

"Yes, you weren’t home at the time."

"I went out on a stroll." The little girl pouted: "When I got back, I saw you left a mark outside my house... knowing you were looking for me, I left a piece of paper on your door."

"What was up with the drawing of the bird on that paper?"

"That wasn’t a bird, it was a skylark!" the little girl said earnestly, looking at Chen Yan.

"..."

Chen Yan’s heart was stirred, but suddenly he recalled something: "So... you didn’t just return today, right? Where did you wander off to for so many days?"

"Wandered a bit too far." The little girl chuckled: "Staying at home is really boring."

Chen Yan nodded and casually handed over two Ink Spirit Crystals to the little girl: "Filled with Primordial Qi."

"Thank you." The little girl accepted them unceremoniously.

However, as she looked into Chen Yan’s eyes, she furrowed her brows and said: "You seem to have something on your mind?"

Chen Yan thought for a moment, then said: "Not exactly, but I did encounter some troublesome matters that I don’t quite understand and wish to seek your guidance."

"Go on." The little girl seemed in good spirits, sitting on the flower bed, her short legs dangling and swinging: "Whatever is unclear, I shall guide you well!"

"If... a person wants to cultivate and also has a set of decent Cultivation Technique——though it’s not the best, it’s moderate, not very refined but stable and proper, following the righteous path of consolidating Primordial Qi.

Yet this person, no matter how they practice, cannot get started, nor can they sense the presence of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

Why is that?"

The little girl responded without hesitation, her tone straightforward: "What’s there not to get? Naturally, it’s lacking talent in cultivation."

Saying this, she glanced at Chen Yan but found him quietly gazing at her.

The little girl’s heart was stirred, and she smiled: "What’s the matter?"

"Lack of talent in cultivation——that answer is too simple; I’m seeking more comprehensive guidance." Chen Yan said slowly: "Different grains raise different people, this principle I understand. There’s the immensely talented, and also those with terrible talent.

But the Cultivation Technique I provided is stable and proper, even if it’s not the most profound, it’s neutral and harmonious, such that even those with weak talent should find it reliable.

This type of technique, while its cultivation achievements won’t have a high ceiling,

the threshold for talent is correspondingly low.

Yet the person I taught, after cultivating for months, has gained virtually nothing, unable to even sense a trace of Primordial Qi.

Their body doesn’t show signs of awakening, and their yuanqi affinity remains virtually zero."

The little girl then pondered earnestly, thinking as she talked: "This... is the talent really that poor?"

She lowered her head in thought, then looked up, a serious expression: "If the talent is so poor that a neutral and harmonious Cultivation Technique yields no sensation of Primordial Qi after months of practice... hmm, that is peculiar!

Your place has a Spirit Gathering Array, where Primordial Qi is naturally abundant! Can’t sense Primordial Qi even with that?"

Chen Yan remained silent, quietly observing the little girl.

The little girl took a deep breath: "Then she must have terribly poor talent——so poor to be described as incorrigible."

Though Chen Yan didn’t appreciate someone speaking so of his girlfriend, however...

The person was a half-step Venerable——undoubtedly, her talent was among the very finest, a prodigy among prodigies.

Fine, swallow it——furthermore, he couldn’t beat her.

"If the talent is so poor, wanting to start on one’s own through hard effort is insufficient, external intervention must occur!" The little girl said seriously: "Use external force to forcibly enlighten this person! Use external means to make this person feel the presence of Primordial Qi and guide it!

If she can’t see Primordial Qi, then let her see it, then gradually familiarize her with it, creating a forcibly sustained awakening, during which she can introduce Primordial Qi into her body. Primordial Qi entering the body can change and enhance her yuanqi affinity, essentially improving her talent.
