Proving one's status starting with magical girls

The white-haired fairy, bathed in moonlight, with a cool and aloof expression, looked at her with a half-smile before the bed.

"What's wrong? You've finally seen the cultivation technique you've been dreaming of, and you're so excited you can't even speak?"

"!"

The blue-haired girl was so startled by these words that she felt a chill run down her spine. She instinctively grabbed the Seed of Hope by her pillow and tried to transform, but instead met a pair of eyes as cold as the moon.

She held the seed tightly in her palm; transformation was just a thought away, but she eventually let go.

The girl swallowed hard, huddled in the corner of the bed, and asked nervously.

"Who...who are you?"

The white-haired fairy chuckled softly, stood by the window with her hands behind her back, and the moonlight illuminated her exquisite face.

"I am Yue Lin, a cultivator and also the magical girl you speak of."

"You want to cultivate the Tao, don't you? Then I will guide you to the supreme path."

Jiang Qing opened her mouth, but the mysterious and profound cultivation technique in her mind was something she couldn't ignore.

So the girl asked the same question she had once asked her senior.

"Is cultivating the Tao really like in novels, capable of curing all ailments and transforming one's entire being?"

Upon hearing this, the fairy glanced at her, seemingly understanding her inner thoughts, and then said calmly.

"Mortal suffering is nothing more than physical pain. I bestow upon you a scroll of the Jade True Technique. Once you cultivate to the Qi Refining stage, you will naturally experience the mysteries of the interplay between reality and illusion, and the transformation of your bones and flesh."

"You are a magical girl, born with a mysterious power within you, making your cultivation of this path twice as effective. There is only one thing you must remember."

"I am not on the same path as Li Jiangqun of the Yuan family. If your wish is fulfilled, you will have to work under me from now on."

"Mortals know only magic and not the way of immortality, ha..."

Yue Lin chuckled softly, her figure vanishing before the girl like a phantom. The bedroom returned to silence, leaving only her excited heart unable to calm down for a long time.

"...Xiao Qing?"

A crisp sound rang in her ears, pulling Jiang Qing out of her memories.

"...Ah, senior, um...it's like this, I have a small question."

The blue-haired girl put down her cultivation manual, seemingly somewhat confused.

"Why did you copy the cultivation technique formula into your notebook, senior? Wouldn't it be more convenient to type it on your phone?"

Wanwu paused, holding her teacup. "Oh right, that seems to be the case."

However, faced with the two puzzled looks, the girl with the ponytail simply shook her head gently.

"No, that won't work."

"These cultivation techniques require magical power to write out; otherwise, they will look like this."

She took a pen out of her backpack and demonstrated it to the two of them.

The two girls curiously came out at the same time. Li Jiangqun held a black pen to her face and thought for a moment, then wrote a line on a blank page of her notebook.

Wanwu vaguely remembered that this seemed to be the very first sentence of the book she had just read, but after Li Jiangqun finished writing that sentence, what happened next left her completely stunned.

The moment the pen touched the paper, the line of text seemed to detach from the page and vanish into thin air.

Li Jiangqun shrugged, indicating that this was the reason.

"Only magic can fix these words on paper. You can't use magic to type on a phone. Even if you type them, the words will suddenly fly out of the phone."

That's why her master asked her to copy the cultivation technique when she broke through to the third level of the embryonic breathing stage.

After all, only after she had condensed the Circulating Wheel and her magical power was circulating throughout her body could she concentrate her magical power in her hand and then use the tip of her pen to write these mysterious words on paper.

"How about we try taking a picture?"

It seemed that the characters flying in the air shattered the worldview of the magical evening dance.

The magical girl stopped her usual tea-drinking posture and her eyes sparkled with curiosity.

"Tisca!"

She snapped her fingers, and a three-tailed golden bird appeared out of thin air on her shoulder, looking somewhat like a canary, with a stylish little bag in its beak.

"Evening Dance, what do you want?" the familiar asked quite bluntly.

Give me your phone.

The golden-haired magical girl gracefully extended her right hand, and her familiar readily took a phone out of its bag and handed it to her.

Watching the two interact, Li Jiangqun became somewhat curious.

"Wanwu, why don't you always keep your familiar with you? Isn't it said that familiars must be with magical girls?"

"Actually, that's not entirely true either," the magical girl replied, resting a finger on her chin.

"My contracted beast, Tisca, doesn't like to stay in the material world for long periods of time, so she mostly stays in the inner space."

"What about Su Su?"

"Here it is."

Yuan Su shook the blue ornament on her wrist, and immediately a small snake head peeked out from the ornament with a puzzled look.

"..."

Well, so that wasn't a decorative ribbon after all. It turns out your familiar was wrapped around it!

"Senior, my familiar is the same as Mai's."

Jiang Qing said with a smile, and the topic was easily dropped.

Meanwhile, Magical Evening Dancer, after failing to capture the words on the notebook with her phone more than ten times, was not disappointed but became even more excited.

She picked up the notebook with both hands, her eyes burning with intensity.

"Jiang skirt...no, senior! Can I take it back with me?"

"If neither SuSu nor XiaoQing have any objections..."

"I have no objection, senior."

"Huh? But isn't it you who wants it the most, Xiao Qing?"

"It won't make a difference if we wait a few more days. I'll be fine with it."

Seeing the faint smile on the blue-haired girl's face, Li Jiangqun decided to buy two more notebooks to copy the cultivation technique when she got back.

Oh! By the way, should we mention it to the countermeasures department as well?

Hmm, I'll ask Fanfan when I go to school tomorrow.

Having made up her mind, Li Jiangqun coughed lightly.

"Actually, I'm very happy that everyone can practice like me, but there's something I still need to say."

She said seriously.

"Master said that the technique should not be passed on lightly, so this technique can only be cultivated up to the peak of embryonic breathing, which is the first realm of immortal cultivation."

"If you want to continue your cultivation, you will need special spiritual energy from heaven and earth, but as far as I know, this kind of spiritual energy cannot be found in reality."

Because a corresponding gas collection method is required.

"So, if you want to achieve Qi Refining, Master said you need to join our Moonflower Yuan Mansion."

Li Jiangqun explained it this way.

However, the other three didn't seem to care.

Wanwu was completely ignorant about cultivation techniques because she hadn't yet understood them. In her eyes, cultivation was more of a novelty.

Even if someone cultivates immortality, so what? Can they be as powerful as her magic?

As for what to do when she grows up, she has already thought it through. She will make models and sell them online. Her dream is not very big, so it is not difficult to achieve.

Yuan Su, on the other hand, was completely uninterested in these things. In her opinion, there was not much difference between cultivating immortality and being a magical girl. She was only a faint-light level magical girl, so she was sure that she wouldn't be much stronger in cultivating immortality either.

The girls had limited perspectives; even though Li Jiangqun was a master cultivator of fetal breathing, they only saw her as being on par with combatants.

As for combatants? Aren't those speed bumps?

And Jiang Qing…

Unbeknownst to Li Jiangqun, this young lady had already secretly colluded with traitors from the Yuan family.
