Chapter 13: Like the Flesh
Chapter 13
Yu Qing comforted, "Although the spiritual energy is scarce, it is better than nothing."
"Senior sister, let me pass some spiritual energy to you to take a look," Song Jixing said.
Song Jixing made a hand seal and lightly touched Yu Qing's forehead with her index finger, intending to pass the spiritual energy over like this.
Unexpectedly, the spiritual energy spread out from between Yu Qing's eyebrows instead of being retained.
Song Jixing's eyes widened slightly: "How could this be?"
Feng Juechen curiously looked towards the two senior sisters: "What's wrong with senior sister?"
"The spiritual energy was not retained. I seem to have a mortal body, simply unable to hold the spiritual energy," Yu Qing described her experience from earlier.
Yu Qing believed her control over spiritual energy was extremely skilled.
However, just now, she clearly sensed the existence of spiritual energy, yet was unable to absorb it.
Upon hearing this, Shen Feixian's gaze inevitably turned to Song Jixing, "Then how does junior sister store spiritual energy?"
Song Jixing blinked her eyes innocently. How would she know?
Could it be because she just transmigrated her soul while the other sect members transmigrated their bodies?
"I also don't know where the spiritual energy comes from. Why don't you guys try it too? I still have a wisp of spiritual energy, everyone can have a drop to see?" Song Jixing tentatively asked.
The two nodded.
Song Jixing made the same hand seal for transferring spiritual energy. But without exception, all the spiritual energy dissipated from senior brother and senior sister's bodies, like a drop of ink blending into the ocean.
They felt its existence, yet couldn't find a trace of it afterwards.
What was going on?
-
The four sect members sat around the sofa and held a brief meeting, reaching a conclusion.
Song Jixing was really different!
The difference lied in her body harboring their sect's divine cauldron.
The divine cauldron had the function of moving heaven and earth. Moreover, it was forged by ancient masters using all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and would definitely not easily fuse with a physical body.
Yet Song Jixing had not only fused with it, but also tore open the void above the divine cauldron, bringing several people to this unfamiliar world.
Also, before their arrival, Song Jixing's palm would become hot.
This showed that Song Jixing and the divine cauldron had an unusual connection. The cauldron's powers were still present, so it could help Song Jixing store spiritual energy.
As for why there was such a connection, Shen Feixian fell silent in thought for a moment: "The Great Dao has fifty, forty-nine are of heaven, and one remains with humans. The opportunity for us to return likely lies with junior sister."
It lies with her?
How could she send them back?
Song Jixing glanced at the ticking clock on the wall, it was already 2 am.
She then reminded everyone: "Senior brother, why don't we sleep first? We can talk again tomorrow after getting up?"
"Good!"
The sect members unanimously nodded.
Yu Qing could no longer stay awake. Upon hearing this, she threw aside the pillow in her hands, "Junior sister, I'm going to bed first!" After saying so, she dragged Song Jixing into the bedroom.
The two lay on the bed, each adjusting into a comfortable position.
Yu Qing forcefully resisted her sleepiness. Right before closing her eyes, she patted Song Jixing next to her: "Junior sister, don't take senior brother Shen's words to heart. There are still so many disciples in our sect, how could we rely on just us few at the Gold Core stage?"
"Master and the sect leader are so powerful, they will definitely think of something." Yu Qing yawned, with tears squeezing out of the corners of her eyes. She patted Song Jixing's arm, "Junior sister, I'm sleeping first. This mortal body can't endure, you should sleep too, junior sister."
"Alright, senior sister," Song Jixing said with a smile.
Actually, it was quite nice that senior brother and senior sister followed her to this world. She was no longer alone, and would not age alone.
The corners of Song Jixing's mouth curved up as she closed her eyes and fell soundly asleep.
Early next morning, Song Jixing still got up early and went out to work.
Unlike usual, there were now people at home to cook!
After watching cooking videos and reading some books for two days, Feng Juechen took it upon himself to cook meals. His reason was that Feng Juechen majored in alchemy, and was gifted in that path, with much better mastery over fire intensity compared to his fellow sect members.
Since Feng Juechen volunteered, how could Song Jixing discourage her sect companion?
"Senior sister, today I learned to make egg pancakes following a recipe. Please try them and see if the flavor is right," Feng Juechen said seriously.
He wore a khaki sweater and white harem pants, with a Hello Kitty patterned apron tied around his chest. As if he wasn't holding a plate of greasy egg pancakes, but a platter of perfectly brewed spiritual pills.
The egg pancakes were cut into diamond shapes, yellow with white, mixed with green onion flowers and slightly charred ham cubes. A thin layer of soybean paste was spread on top, sprinkled with some white sesame seeds, looking extremely tempting.
Song Jixing would occasionally make her own breakfast on weekends after transmigrating back from the cultivation world.
Upon finding her appetite grew bigger, she cared less about breakfast, hurrying off to film sets to freeload food.
Having someone specially cook for her made her happy!
Song Jixing picked up a pancake with her chopsticks. As she ate, the delicious flavors of the egg pancakes and the ham's fragrance filled her mouth! While chewing the egg pancake in her mouth, Song Jixing decisively gave Feng Juechen a big thumbs up!
The pancakes were truly amazing!
Standing opposite Song Jixing, Feng Juechen copied her gesture and gave a thumbs up, with some confusion and novelty in his eyes, "Is senior sister praising me?"
Song Jixing nodded while chewing the pancake.
"Yes, very delicious! Junior brother, you have talent for cooking! The fire intensity is great and the ingredients are also very good!"
As expected, alchemy helps with cooking!
A trace of faint smile emerged on Feng Juechen's face, "As long as senior sister likes it!"
Song Jixing swiftly finished a plateful of pancakes and rushed out, pressed for time.
The security door slammed shut behind her as Shen Feixian pushed the door open and walked out.
"Junior brother, have you seen my laptop?" Shen Feixian looked at the desktop. He remembered placing it there before going to bed last night.
"Senior brother, I put it next to the TV cabinet to charge," Feng Juechen replied.
"Oh, found it. Thank you, junior brother." Shen Feixian picked up his notebook.
His fingers flew swiftly across the keyboard as he browsed the gains of last night.
He packaged the scammer's address and scam records, categorizing them into different folders based on the directory he found online before sending them to the law enforcement agency's mailbox in this world, which was the public security bureau.
After finishing this, Shen Feixian did not forget to thank the person who gave him the info on the forum.
Although books in this world were not as inaccessible as the cultivation manuals in their world, he knew every book cost money. Since someone gave them to him for free, he naturally had to properly thank them.
Shen Feixian thanked each person who passed him books, appreciating the kindness of every benefactor. He also mentioned the books were very useful and taught him a lot.
Not long after this message was sent, Shen Feixian received a reply from one of them.
[Bro, have you read through everything? How much did you learn?]
Looking at the reply from someone called Astronomical Observatory, Shen Feixian knew this person gave him over 2GB worth of PDFs. He alone exceeded all the others combined.
Shen Feixian engraved this kindness deeply in his heart. He immediately responded to the post:
[The books you gave this junior were all read through. After reading, this junior benefited tremendously, even helping this junior through a calamity. Such great kindness and virtue, this junior enshrines deeply in his heart!]
