Golden Core is a Star, and You Call This Cultivation?

Jiang Lingsu stood still, unable to believe her ears.

She... a dignified young lady...

Build her own house?

A straw house at that??

Use her spells for this?

She wanted to say something to Qi Yuan.

Unfortunately, Qi Yuan didn't seem to notice her expression.

He looked up at the clouds and said, "You'd better hurry; it might rain tonight."

Jiang Lingsu blinked, feeling a bit confused. "Senior Brother, what if I can't finish it?"

"There’s a bench in my room," Qi Yuan said. "If you're worried about getting wet, you can borrow it to sleep on."

After speaking, Qi Yuan walked into his straw house.

Jiang Lingsu clenched her fists and watched her senior brother's back.

She resigned herself to her fate.

After all, she wasn't the type to force others to take pity on her.

She would handle her own affairs.

She followed Qi Yuan into the courtyard and began to gather straw and some wood to build her... nest?

Despite her frustration, Jiang Lingsu remembered her purpose for coming here.

Her primary goal was to find that high person.

Although the Seven Color Peak Master, Ruan Yixi, was the most likely candidate, there could be others.

Who knows, there might be a seal beneath the Shen Guang Sect, where a supreme power slumbers.

As for Qi Yuan, she decided to treat him as an ordinary senior brother, neither getting too close nor deliberately distancing herself.

Clouds gathered and dispersed as Jiang Lingsu diligently worked on her straw house.

In the previously empty space, a straw house appeared.

Although she had never built a house or lived in a straw house, she had practiced spells.

She also had many treasures with her.

When the house was unstable, she simply used a "Binding Talisman" to keep it from collapsing.

After finishing the house, it was still early.

Jiang Lingsu clapped her hands and looked at her house, feeling extremely satisfied.

"Senior Brother."

She went to Qi Yuan's house and called out.

No matter what, she had joined Seven Color Peak, so she needed to keep up appearances.

She needed to learn Seven Color Peak's spells.

"Come in," Qi Yuan's voice came.

Jiang Lingsu quickly entered.

Upon entering, she saw Qi Yuan holding a square jade slip.

She had seen this type of jade slip before.

"Senior Brother, are you playing a game?" Jiang Lingsu asked.

The current cultivation world was no longer the dull, lifeless place it once was.

Entertainment was plentiful.

Betting on alchemy.

Listening to songs in brothels.

Sword dances.

And even games were abundant.

The square jade slip in Qi Yuan's hand was clearly a game jade slip.

These jade slips generally stored various types of games.

Fighting, dungeon crawling, farming... all sorts.

However, these game jade slips were not cheap.

Especially the complex, large-scale games that even had formations engraved on them, making the characters and backgrounds lifelike.

Because of this, jade slip games were particularly popular.

Of course, some were overly explicit and circulated secretly.

Those who could afford jade slip games were usually not short on money.

Qi Yuan continued playing his game without looking up. "Yes."

"Senior Brother, have you been playing games all afternoon?" Jiang Lingsu asked.

Thinking about how she had been working hard while her senior brother was playing games, she felt a bit unbalanced.

"Don't you cultivate? If I'm not mistaken, Senior Brother, you should already be at the peak of Qi Refining, just a step away from Foundation Establishment," Jiang Lingsu, who was also at the peak of Qi Refining, said.

"I am cultivating," Qi Yuan replied.

Playing games is cultivating?

Although some game jade slips could indeed benefit cultivation, those were rare and very precious.

"Playing games? Cultivating?" Jiang Lingsu was momentarily confused, then realized something. "Senior Brother, you are from the Obsessive lineage. What is your obsession?"

The Obsessive lineage's cultivation differed significantly from other lineages.

Others found a suitable technique for their spiritual roots and cultivated on their own.

The Obsessive lineage needed to find something to obsess over.

Obsessed with something.

For example, jade, flowers, or even swords.

According to the elders in Jiang Lingsu's family, cultivation in the Obsessive lineage focused on mental strength.

Being deeply devoted to the object of their obsession.

Extreme obsession could lead to madness.

This made them somewhat out of touch with the outside world.

Thus, cultivators of the Obsessive lineage were extremely difficult to communicate with.

Jiang Lingsu had seen cultivators of the Obsessive lineage before but had never encountered one obsessed with games.

Usually, those obsessed with games would be sent for treatment, with electrotherapy being the most popular.

After all, traditional cultivators did not highly regard game obsession as part of the Obsessive lineage.

"Does this count as an obsession?" Qi Yuan didn't look up. "If it does, then yes, I'm obsessed with it."

Jiang Lingsu didn't know what to say.

Should she suggest electrotherapy for her senior brother?

Does an obsession with games have a future?

"Senior Brother, isn't this a bit unreliable? I've never heard of a great cultivator obsessed with games."

In the Obsessive lineage, the potential of the object of obsession varied.

For example, being obsessed with trees: a thousand-year dragon blood tree was better than an ordinary tree, and a heaven-favored wood was better than a thousand-year dragon blood tree.

Games... what potential do they have?

"A new era calls for new things," Qi Yuan said casually, glancing at Jiang Lingsu.

He had obtained this game jade slip a year ago, before transmigrating to this world.

In Qi Yuan's view, it was like a gaming console.

But this console was special; it seemed to connect to a network.

His transmigration had a lot to do with this game jade slip.

Even his ability to see hidden information was likely related to this jade slip.

In this world, he had seen many game jade slips, similar in appearance but fundamentally different.

Jiang Lingsu was at a loss for words.

But she remembered her purpose.

She continued, "Senior Brother, can I get the cultivation techniques of Seven Color Peak?"

Qi Yuan looked at Jiang Lingsu seriously and said, "Seven Color Peak's techniques can't be cultivated."

"Why?" Jiang Lingsu asked.

Could Senior Brother know some secret?

Does it have something to do with the peak master?

"The techniques are poisonous."

"Pfft..." If Jiang Lingsu had water in her mouth, she would have spit it out.

Now, Qi Yuan seemed like a raving lunatic to her.

But recalling the information she had gathered before coming, this senior brother of Seven Color Peak indeed had a reputation for being eccentric.

So it wasn't surprising.

"Senior Brother, I don't mind. Please give me the techniques," Jiang Lingsu said.

Qi Yuan slowly took out a jade slip and handed it to Jiang Lingsu. "This is the cultivation method of Seven Color Peak. But it's only half."

"The first part is the original technique. The latter part is my modification, but it's incomplete."

He handed the technique jade slip to Jiang Lingsu.
