Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character

Chapter 217: Trapped in the Dragon's Barrier at the Start

Ordinary spiritual food from the lower realms couldn't provide the energy Mo Lin needed, but sea creatures from the deep sea could. Since settling down by the sea, he often went hunting in the deep sea.

Sometimes they would bring some back; today they brought back a piece of fish, which they grilled and then handed to Li Mingyue.

"This fish has pure energy; you can eat a little, but not too much."

"Okay." Li Mingyue used a knife to cut off a piece of fish and put it in her mouth.

The first thing you notice is the very sweet and fresh taste, and only after swallowing it do you feel the pure spiritual energy.

She took only one bite, then began to meditate and refine the energy.

Looking at the palm-sized piece of fish, Mo Lin realized that Mingyue's physical condition was worse than he had anticipated, and he needed to find more gentle foods to help nourish her body.

The piece in his hand was the tenderest part of the fish he had sliced ​​off. It was already cooked and couldn't be left any longer, so he opened his mouth and prepared to eat it himself.

"Shut up, leave that piece of meat behind." An old man with completely white hair and beard suddenly jumped out.

Mo Lin raised his hand and set up an isolation array for Li Mingyue.

"Quiet down, what are you yelling about?" Mo Lin looked at the old man with disdain.

Li Mingyue wasn't interested in his "neighbors," but he couldn't be completely ignorant, so when he decided to stay here to recuperate, he did some basic research on who was around.

This old man is a human cultivator, a very peculiar one. He lives to their right, with a big yellow dog by his side. He cultivates using the skills of a demon cultivator, but his cultivation level is very high. He could ascend at any time, but for some reason, he keeps suppressing his cultivation level and refuses to ascend.

To their left was a python demon, a powerful demon who was supposed to be close to ascension. However, ascension is more difficult for demons than for humans, and she had always been just a little short of the right opportunity.

Only someone like Mo Lin, from the upper realm, would dare to settle down between these two tough guys.

"Hehe, fellow Daoist, could you spare some of the fish you have?"

"You do know your stuff. Since you do, you should know how rare it is. What price are you willing to pay to take it?" Mo Lin put the fish into his storage space.

"Fellow Daoist, you've already eaten such a large fish, why would you care about such a small piece?"

"Of course I care. This was specially saved for my Mingyue. Her cultivation level is low, and her body needs to be nourished. This is perfect for her."

"Your young lady simply can't absorb that much."

"We can keep it for her to eat slowly. It's not like I don't have a jade box to lock in the energy." Mo Lin had nothing to do at the moment, and Mingyue was cultivating, so he decided to chat with the old man.

"You were just about to eat it all by yourself."

"I've changed my mind now." Mo Lin was planning to eat it himself, but his Mingyue should eat the best. The jade box could lock in the energy, but the fish would taste bad if it was left out for too long. Mingyue loved to eat delicious food, and her eyes would widen every time she ate something delicious, which was especially cute.

He planned to catch fresh food for Mingyue next time.

The old man, named Han Junsheng, swallowed hard, then reluctantly pulled out a jade bottle: "Hey, this is royal jelly from Xuanming Jade Peak, a sacred substance for nourishing a woman's body. Shouldn't that be enough to exchange for the fish and meat you have?"

Mo Lin nodded and took out the fish meat directly.

He considered this a profitable deal. Those eyeless fish were rare for others, but for him it was just a matter of spending some time. The royal jelly from the Xuanming Jade Bees was different. First, the Xuanming Jade Bees' talent was to hide, making it difficult for ordinary people to find their hives. Second, even if a hive was found, not every hive contained royal jelly, and ordinary honey was far less effective than royal jelly.

So even though the jade bottle the old man took out was very small, containing less than ten drops, he still readily exchanged the fish for the meat.

Old Han finished the fish in two bites, muttering, "What a waste! Why grill such good fish? This kind of glass fish should be eaten fresh. All the energy is lost, and it doesn't taste as good as raw."

"Mingyue cannot eat raw food." Although the spiritual energy contained in fish is pure, the energy of raw meat is still somewhat tyrannical.

"Is it really necessary to be so lenient? Eating it raw will only cause your meridians to hurt for a short while."

"What do you know, you single old man?" Mo Lin sneered at him. What do you mean by "it will hurt for a while"? Why would you let your meridians hurt for a while when you're perfectly fine?

"You know what I mean, okay? I really don't know what's so great about getting married?"

"Hmph! You should leave!" Mo Lin shooed him away, not wanting to argue with a stupid old man who only knew how to raise dogs.

"If you have any more of this kind of fish, save some for me raw, and I'll trade it for royal jelly."

"Let's see if my Mingyue likes it." If Mingyue doesn't like royal jelly, we won't change it next time, unless the old man can come up with something Mingyue likes.

"You're just spoiling me!" Han Junsheng glared at him, puffing out his beard, and then vanished in a flash.

So what if he spoils her? It's not like he can't spoil her. If he could spoil her enough to make Mingyue agree to be with him, he would be more than happy to do so.

A bite of fish helped Li Mingyue advance a small level; she is now at the second level of Qi Refining.

"Isn't this considered forcibly raising the bar?" Li Mingyue asked with some concern.

Han Junsheng: "It's nothing. It's just a small step, what's the big deal about forcibly raising your level? Your man has spoiled you too much."

When Li Mingyue woke up, Mo Lin wanted to be alone with her and was very unfriendly to outsiders.

"It's alright, Mingyue. You've accumulated enough over this period of time. The fish just helped to break through that bottleneck."

Old Man Han couldn't help but say, "What kind of bottleneck is there for a Qi Refining Stage 2? It's not like it's a Golden Core Refining Void stage."

"What does it have to do with you? We're not trading fish anymore." Li Mingyue already knew about last night's deal. She hadn't drunk the royal jelly yet, although she quite liked the taste, it wasn't a must-have.

"Hey, you're being stingy, girl. Your man needs to eat too, so what's wrong with leaving just one piece each time?"

"What should we do? I'm the boss in this family! I won't let him stay, he won't bring back even a single fishbone." Old man Limingyue said.

Mo Lin's lips curled up wildly, and Ming Yue said, "It's our family!"

"You, you, you!" Han Junsheng jumped up and down, realizing he couldn't win.

"goodbye!"

"Wait, I have something that might interest you." Old Man Han was both flexible and adaptable.

"No!" Li Mingyue refused outright.

"I possess a cultivation technique specifically designed for those with water and wood spiritual roots!"

Li Mingyue looked at Mo Lin: "Can you snatch it away?"

"I'll give it a try!" How could I say I couldn't do it? The old man's cultivation method was somewhat unorthodox, but he was still a cultivator from the lower realm, so I could always manage to put in the effort.

Han Junsheng dodged away, and spoke again from a large tree far away: "Young man, don't be so hot-tempered."

Li Mingyue hadn't intended to make a big deal out of it. Given their circumstances, it wasn't easy to find such a quiet place to recuperate. She held onto Mo Lin's arm, preventing him from chasing after them.

"Here's what we'll do: you copy that cultivation technique onto a piece of animal hide and give it to me along with the jade slip. If Mo Lin catches that kind of fish again, I'll save a piece for you." Li Mingyue wanted to have a backup plan, in case the jade slip wouldn't be able to be opened in other mission worlds.
