5: Lingxiaofeng Xiaoyou Sect

“Rice!”

But after the door was pushed open, Wei Xun immediately heard Xiao Li’s voice.

Confirming it was indeed Xiao Li, Wei Xun then crawled out of the bag.

“Jiji!” Wei Xun lay by the edge of the bag and chirped a few times at Xiao Li.

Upon seeing Wei Xun, Xiao Li ran over with a playful smile, her two dimples making her look incredibly cute.

“My morning lessons are over, and I specially asked Grandmaster for two more Small Spirit Fruits!” Xiao Li finished speaking and took out two more of the red fruits they had eaten yesterday from her bosom.

Seeing these fruits, Wei Xun’s eyes immediately lit up.

These were the treasures that could directly add five to six thousand progress points per fruit!

Seeing Wei Xun's excited appearance, Xiao Li chuckled, lifted Wei Xun out of the bag, and placed him on the table.

“Eat quickly, you must be starving!” After Xiao Li placed the fruits on the table, she also put Wei Xun next to them, then reached out a finger and stroked Wei Xun’s head.

Looking at the two fresh Spirit Fruits in front of him, Wei Xun couldn't help but swallow.

Having eaten too many dates earlier, Wei Xun genuinely felt a bit full now.

However, these Spirit Fruits were good things; he had to eat them even if he burst.

So Wei Xun leaned in and started gnawing, finally finishing one fruit after a long effort.

Sure enough, after eating the fruit, he closed his eyes and found that the progress bar in his mind had increased by over five thousand points.

He had now reached [Spirit Beast Realm Second Layer 8910 / 20000].

After eating one, when Wei Xun still wanted to eat the other fruit, he felt a bit nauseous.

His stomach was truly too full; he just couldn't eat anymore.

But if he didn't eat it now, if Xiao Li thought he didn't like this fruit and stopped bringing it to him in the future, that would be a huge loss.

So Wei Xun had a flash of inspiration and could only use another function of the Big Gulp Cultivation Technique.

He opened his mouth and directly bit the fruit into several pieces, swallowing them, but not into his stomach; instead, he put them into that storage space.

This space was quite large; Wei Xun closed his eyes and estimated it was about the size of a suitcase, capable of holding at least tens of pounds of cherry-sized fruits like these.

Watching Wei Xun finish the fruit, Xiao Li's eyes curved in a smile, appearing very happy.

“Rice, I have good news for you!” At this moment, Xiao Li lovingly stroked Wei Xun's head again and said, “This afternoon, Master and the others are going out, so I’ll be the only one left on the mountain.”

“Then I can secretly take you out to play and show you the scenery of our Sect, it’s very beautiful!”

Hearing what Xiao Li said, Wei Xun immediately became interested.

He had only seen such Immortal Mountain Sects in TV dramas and movies; he truly didn't know what they looked like in reality.

If he could go out and see, that would be wonderful.

And most importantly, there must be many treasures in this Immortal Mountain Sect; if he could get them, that would be fantastic.

After Xiao Li played with Wei Xun in the room for a while, she looked at the time outside the window, then turned to Wei Xun and said, “Rice, you stay in the room obediently. I need to go out and cultivate again. After lunch, when Master and the others have left, I’ll come back to take you out to play.”

After Xiao Li finished speaking, she gently patted Wei Xun’s head, then skipped out of the room, making sure to tightly close the door behind her, afraid that Wei Xun in the room would be discovered.

So Wei Xun had to jump off the table, then climb onto that comfortable wooden bed, finding a suitable position to lie down and digest his food.

It wasn't until nearly noon that Wei Xun felt the food in his stomach had mostly digested, and only then did he spit out the small Spirit Fruit that had been stored in the Da Kou Space and eat it again.

This fruit was a bit larger than the previous ones, so it added a lot more progress after being eaten.

[Spirit Beast Realm Second Layer 15680 / 20000]

Which meant he was only a little over four thousand points away from another Breakthrough.

According to the current situation, wouldn't that just be a matter of today or tomorrow?

Thinking of this, Wei Xun happily crossed his legs, lay down, and hummed a tune.

“Jiji Jiji, Jiji Jiji…”

After a little while longer, Xiao Li pushed the door open and returned to the room, holding a small rice ball, about the size of a walnut.

Upon entering the room, Xiao Li immediately found Wei Xun and picked him up onto the table.

“Rice, I made you a rice ball, eat it quickly!” Xiao Li said, placing the rice ball in front of Wei Xun, then muttered to herself, “This Rice was grown by Master and the others using Spiritual Qi; it’s especially delicious, you should try it.”

Hearing Xiao Li's words, Wei Xun leaned over and sniffed; it indeed smelled much more fragrant than ordinary Rice.

Although what she brought back this time wasn't the wonderful Spirit Fruit, he couldn't disappoint this little girl's good intentions.

So Wei Xun opened his mouth and ate; he was hungry anyway.

After eating all the Rice, Wei Xun closed his eyes to check the progress bar, unexpectedly finding that it had increased by nearly one hundred points.

This was indeed not ordinary Rice!

Although it couldn't compare to the previous Spirit Fruit, it was still very good.

After eating his fill, Xiao Li looked at Wei Xun and said with a smile, “Master and the others have already left. I’ll take you out to play now.”

“Jiji!” Hearing this, Wei Xun immediately nodded.

Then Xiao Li placed Wei Xun on her shoulder, pushed open the door, and walked out.

But after walking out the main door, Wei Xun was a bit stunned.

There was no luxurious Sect as he had imagined; instead, it looked somewhat like the dilapidated thatched wooden houses in the countryside.

Xiao Li's room was very clean and tidy inside, so Wei Xun hadn't noticed this point earlier.

Across the entire mountaintop, there were about ten scattered houses like these, looking like a small mountain village.

However, although the houses were somewhat old and dilapidated, the scenery on the mountaintop was very beautiful.

This mountain soared into the clouds; looking down, there was an endless sea of clouds, making it impossible to tell how high it truly was.

The mountain scenery was also beautiful, lush and green, with grass everywhere and flowers in full bloom.

Beneath his feet was verdant grassland, with only a small stone path connecting the various thatched huts.

Although there was some discrepancy from what he had imagined, Wei Xun could still barely accept the situation.

It was a bit rudimentary, but at least it was an Immortal Mountain, much better than where he was before.

Perched on Xiao Li’s shoulder, Xiao Li took Wei Xun for a walk along the stone path, explaining the situation on the mountain to him along the way.

It was then that Wei Xun understood the basic situation of the entire Immortal Mountain.

This mountain was named Lingxiao Peak, and it was very high.

There was no road leading from the base of the mountain to the summit; one could only reach the top by flying.

The Sect was named Xiaoyou Sect, and currently, there were only about ten members in the Sect.

The Sect Master was Xiao Li’s Grandmaster, known to outsiders as Xiaoyou Zhenren, a person of high virtue and prestige.

Xiaoyou Zhenren had ten Disciples, eight of whom had already descended the mountain long ago.

Only the eighth Disciple and Xiao Li’s Master remained.
