Chapter 467: Bai Sha
After dinner, Lin Xuan Qi didn’t rest and he went to the lab to cultivate.
When he was done with absorbing the Five-Element Qi from the Five-Element Stone he had in his hand, he felt a surge of energy filling his body from his dantian.
Every sense he had became much better than it was.
Then, he felt his spirit mind getting clearer.
A barrier was formed to protect his spirit mind against spiritual attacks.
His dantian also expanded to what it was but this time, the Five-Element Qi circulated in a much more stable manner.
He could also sense the Five-Element Qi that was in the surroundings much more clearly than before.
It had taken a while and he was finally at Foundation Establishment Level.
Lee He Song and Zhi Yong, who were also in the lab cultivating, also sensed what happened and they were looking in his direction.
Lin Xuan Qi opened his eyes and stood up from the lotus position that he was in.
He felt lighter with every step he took and the amount of Five-Element Qi he had was twice as much.
Whoosh.
Lin Xuan Qi leaped into the air and he was able to remain in the air for a few moments.
"Master flying!" Zhi Yong got excited when he saw what Lin Xuan Qi was able to do.
But Lin Xuan Qi could only sustain being in the air for so long before he got back onto the ground again.
Lee He Song went up to Lin Xuan Qi and chuckled, "Congratulations, Master Lin.
"Seems like we would need to buckle up and chase after you before you get too far ahead of us."
Zhi Yong nodded his head in agreement and they continued on their cultivation with the Five-Element Stones they had immediately.
Lin Xuan Qi felt happy to be able to finally ascend to the next level, and he took stock of how many Five-Element Stones he had left.
Thankfully, it took him around seventy Five-Element Stones in total to get to Foundation Establishment Level.
And he estimated that it might take the same or more for Lee He Song and the others to do the same.
He still had a thousand or so of the Five-Element Stones from the system and he wasn’t too worried that he would run out of them for now.
When the wedding with Yue Xin and Liu Shi Shi was over, he would be able to get another thousand of the Five-Element Stones.
Unless more of the Clan members started practicing the Daoist Five-Element Cultivation Techniques in the near future, he wasn’t too worried for now.
In the worst scenario, he could also buy more properties and businesses to get more of the Five-Element Stones from the system. Which was something he had been doing so far.
Lin Xuan Qi continued with his cultivation in the lab until it was late at night and he didn’t stop with his dual cultivation with Xue Cong and Yue Jie when he got back to his bedroom.
...
Next day.
Lin Xuan Qi got another pleasant surprise when he finished breakfast.
The documents for the rice noodle shop were completed and sent by Old Ren.
And when he got the documents into his hands, the familiar sound from the system erupted in his mind again.
[Congratulations to host for procuring new property.]
[Host is unbeatable within its compound.]
[Bonus of 50 Five-Element Stones delivered.]
[Keep up the good work!]
[Congratulations to host for recruiting thirty more workers to the Lin Clan.]
[Additional 300KG of rice will be delivered to the mansion daily.]
[Keep up the good work and recruit more personnel.]
He felt great when he saw the kilograms of rice that he could use as the ingredients for the rice noodles, rice cakes and rice paper rolls.
They could then be supplied to the inn and it would be sort of like another free income for him from the system.
Lin Xuan Qi was happy with his decision and hoped to see the money coming in for him soon.
As of now, he was spending more than he was earning from the rice and soap business which was still going on.
For the Lin Clan Taste Transcendent Essence, he would have to check with the fishermen on their progress later.
Lin Xuan Qi wasted no time for it.
He kept the documents, got onto the horse carriage and headed for Bai Sha village soon after.
The journey towards Bai Sha village was also a welcoming breather for him.
The sun and the open space made him feel better after what he had done for the past few days.
And it was also a break away from the tense atmosphere in the city.
All those that were in the city were still reeling from what had happened between the Sima Family and the Six Pulse Sword Sect.
When he arrived at Bai Sha village and alighted from his horse carriage, the familiar smell of the sea and the fishermen with whatever catch they had was oddly comforting to him.
"Master Lin? Long time no see." One of the fishmongers in the market greeted him when he saw Lin Xuan Qi arrive.
"It has been a while." Lin Xuan Qi said and glanced around at the fish market.
There weren’t as many stalls open and for those that were still open, they only had a few varieties of fish on sale.
The fishermen must have stopped going out to the sea for their catch as often.
And most of the fishermen were most likely not as active in the region anymore.
"How can I help you today?" The fishmonger asked, hoping for more business from him.
Lin Xuan Qi glanced back at the fishmonger and replied, "I heard that there were some fishermen who had started to farm the kelp.
"I’m here to see how they were doing so far."
The fishmonger nodded his head and pointed out in the distance at the sea and said, "They were trying it out over there and got some results.
"But they’ve stopped for now due to the cold."
