Chapter 384 Spring begins

Several days passed like this, and the heavy snow outside showed no signs of stopping; on the contrary, it fell even heavier.

Such weather is extremely difficult for ordinary orcs to endure.

But for Su Xiyue and her beastmen, it became an excellent opportunity to cultivate in peace.

Heavy snow blocked the mountain pass, and the orcs and females in the tribe stayed at home, not daring to even go out.

Only a few orcs were shoveling snow outside occasionally.

During this period, Su Xiyue gradually gained another 1235 faith points, all provided by the orcs and females of various tribes.

The old priest of the Deer Tribe provided nearly 300 faith points.

"How is this going?"

One day, while adding firewood, she couldn't help but ask the system.

The system popped up instantly: "The old priest of the Deer Tribe has been holed up in his stone house every day eating braised pork, while he eats and keeps thanking the Beast God's messenger for teaching him the cooking method. Now the entire Deer Tribe has learned to stew meat in stone pots, and those with better conditions use earthenware pots. Every household is eating delicious and hot food, making this snow season a little more comfortable, and naturally they are all grateful to you in their hearts."

Upon hearing this, Su Xiyue couldn't help but laugh out loud: "That wasn't taught by me, it was the females of the tribe who taught them."

The system chuckled, "Host, although you didn't personally teach them, all the female wolves in the wolf tribe are your apprentices. Now the whole lower realm is saying—'The female wolves in the wolf tribe are skillful and can cook all kinds of delicious food, all learned from the Beast God's messenger.' So this gratitude naturally belongs to you."

So, this is a case of "a great teacher produces a great student"?

Her lips twitched, and suddenly she remembered something, raising an eyebrow and saying, "Wait, what's with the old priest of the Deer Tribe having 300 faith points? Could that old man be treating me like a beast god?"

Suddenly, the image of the old priest of the deer tribe came to mind. His old face, with almost no teeth, made me wonder how he ate.

"That's not true."

The system couldn't help but laugh as it said this: "However, before eating every day, he would hold up the bowl of meat and shout, 'Thank you, Beast God Messenger, for bestowing this delicious food,' like chanting a spell, and he did it three times a day without fail."

Su Xiyue almost burst out laughing; she could imagine how hilarious the scene must have been.

When I first transmigrated here, I just felt that eating barbecue every day was too greasy, and I also had severe constipation, so I wanted to change my diet.

Then, based on his memories from his past life, he made the food he liked.

The tribe's females, drawn by the aroma, came over, found it delicious, and all wanted to learn how to make it from her.

Feeling bad about refusing, she taught him anyway.

Unexpectedly, it has now become one of the sources of faith points.

"Tongtong, how many faith points do I have now?"

She was too lazy to look it up and just asked the system directly.

The system replied almost instantly: "Current faith value: 1312 points. Would you like to spend it now?"

"Ah."

Su Xiyue nodded slightly, thinking that the seven beastmen were all in seclusion in their respective rooms cultivating.

Given their monstrous cultivation speed, they will all break through to the Foundation Establishment stage by the spring of next year at the latest.

She could copy down the "Amazing Sword Manual" she had originally bought for them to practice.

Since it has no inherent attributes, it can be cultivated by any spiritual root.

But it's definitely not possible without a suitable flying sword; at least one for each person.

Flying swords are also a symbol of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

"Tongtong, do you have any affordable flying sword packages?"

Too lazy to flip through the pages one by one, she simply asked the system.

The system, upon hearing that she wanted to go shopping, verbally accused the host of being extravagant, but quickly popped up a glittering promotional box.

"Ding! Although the host is extravagant, these are all necessities. This system is launching the 'Essential for Foundation Establishment Cultivators: Deluxe Flying Sword Family Pack'. Originally priced at 2100 Faith Points, it is now only 1100 points. Don't miss it!"

Su Xiyue felt a sudden flash before her eyes, and then an advertisement appeared in front of her, which was the promotional box that the dog system had mentioned.

The label reads: "Deluxe Family Bucket includes:"

7 Common Low-Grade Flying Swords (7 basic colors available, comes with a standard scabbard and sword pouch)
Basic version of the Sword Control Mantra (replica, not the original jade slip)

Flying Sword Maintenance Guide (Animal Hide Scroll Version)

Su Xiyue: “…”

Her lips twitched twice, and she thought to herself, speechless, "Tongtong, the flying swords in your 'deluxe family bucket' are just those 'ordinary low-grade' ones that you got for 300 faith points when you bought one and got three free, right? Seven basic colors? Do you think you're collecting rainbows? And this incantation, is it a replica? A maintenance guide or a hide scroll? Could you have been any more perfunctory?"

The original price was 2100, but now it's only 1100 points. This promotion is like a massive financial blow.

But she knew perfectly well that the flying swords in this "deluxe family bucket" were probably not much different in quality from those in the "buy one get three free" deal.

They're all low-grade flying swords anyway, just with a few more colors.

She only asks for a maximum of 700 faith points; anything higher would be too expensive for her.

The system chuckled awkwardly: "Host, you have sharp eyes indeed. Here's what we'll do: 888 Faith Points, for good luck, plus seven sword tassels."

Su Xiyue rolled her eyes: "700, take it or leave it." "Deal."

The system replied instantly, as if afraid she would change her mind: "Ding, 700 faith points have been deducted, 612 points remaining."

Seven flying swords of different colors appeared in front of her instantly, neatly inserted into the animal skin sword pouch.

"Damn system, you were just waiting for me to haggle, weren't you?"

She realized what was happening instantly and was so angry she wanted to bite her teeth.

The system is playing dead and remaining silent.

Su Xiyue was even angrier and cursed under her breath: "Damn system."

He then examined each flying sword and found that its quality was much worse than the superior-grade Azure Frost Sword he was using.

But I also know that you get what you pay for.

Although its quality is average, it is still a magical flying sword, which is worlds apart from weapons made of iron.

There are seven colors in total, and they do not contain any attributes.

She prepared silver for Ye Ling, black for Mo Lin, white for Bai Qi, cyan for Qing Zhu, purple for Xuan Ming, red for Feng Su, and gold for Xuan Yuan Ming.

She imagined the scene of seven beastmen flying on swords, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up.

Once the snow season ends, they should all have broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage. At that time, we'll let them cultivate the Amazing Sword Technique.

However, Bai Qi is a bit mysterious.

He has the lowest strength, currently only at the eleventh level of Qi Refining. It would be difficult for him to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage in just one snow season.

Su Xiyue remembered that she still had 612 faith points and wanted to buy Bai Qi a Qi-Nourishing Pill.

One piece costs 100 faith points, so the price isn't too expensive.

But if we buy it only for Bai Qi, what about Ye Ling, Mo Lin, Qing Zhu, Xuan Ming, Feng Su, and Xuan Yuan Ming?
They were all her beastly husbands; she couldn't show favoritism to one over the other, lest people think she was biased.

If this causes any conflict, it could escalate into a major argument, which would be disastrous.

I can't deliberately favor Bai Qi just because he's a little weaker.

This is unfair to the other beastmen.

After some careful consideration.

Su Xiyue ultimately decided not to buy the Peiyuan Pill for the time being.

She comforted herself, thinking that once she had more faith points, she would buy one for everyone, so no one would say she was being biased.

Moreover, Bai Qi is a ten-tailed celestial fox, and his aptitude is not bad. As long as he works hard to cultivate, he will catch up sooner or later.

Thinking this way made her feel much better.

The snow season lasted for four whole months. As the ice and snow melted, everything came back to life, and everywhere became vibrant with life.

Su Xiyue stood in the courtyard, stretched, and felt the freshness and vitality in the air, looking extremely content.

The snow season is over, and spring is coming.

The beastmen in the tribe came out of their homes and began to get busy.

Some went to work, some went hunting, and some stretched their muscles. After months of silence, the tribe became lively again.

Ye Ling, Mo Lin, Qing Zhu, Xuan Ming, Feng Su, Xuan Yuan Ming, and others also broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage one after another.

Although Bai Qi had not broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, his cultivation had reached the peak of the twelfth level of Qi Refining, and he was only half a step away from Foundation Establishment.

It's not that his qualifications are worse than the others, but rather that he started from a lower point.

When he first obtained the Demon Codex and converted all the orc power within him into cultivation, he was only at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Bai Qi's ability to cultivate to the half-step Foundation Establishment stage in such a short time is already considered exceptionally talented.

However, he himself seemed dissatisfied with this, and even became somewhat depressed because he failed to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Su Xiyue saw this and felt that Bai Qi was too impatient and his mentality was a bit off.

Seeing him standing in the yard lost in thought, I walked over and deliberately bumped his shoulder: "What are you thinking about? You seem so engrossed?"

Bai Qi snapped out of his daze, glanced at her sideways, and forced a smile: "Why did Yue'er come out?"

"I'm bringing you something nice."

She magically produced a snow-white flying sword and a scroll made of animal hide. "Here you go, the flying sword and the Swift Swallow Sword Technique. You can use them once you've reached Foundation Establishment."

Bai Qi took the flying sword and the animal hide scroll, and said with a self-deprecating expression, "I haven't even reached the Foundation Establishment stage yet, so I don't need these."

"What's the rush? A breakthrough is only a matter of time. Your cultivation speed is already very fast. Going any faster might lead to an unstable foundation, which might not be a good thing for you."

She spoke patiently.

Then she pulled him away from the courtyard, saying as they walked, "Come on, come with me to the kiln. The delivery is due in the spring. I don't know if the bricks and tiles needed by the various tribes are ready yet. Father has been keeping an eye on it, and I haven't asked."

Bai Qi was pulled along by her and had no choice but to follow.
