Chapter 512: 512
Xue Wei was not too troubled about the female ghost's decision . While she would make things much simpler if she could be their guide, he had not saved her with the purpose of having her return the favor .
It was also because of this attitude that the female ghost was even more confident that following this man was the best decision she had ever made .
After she had finished sorting her clothes, she stood by Xue Wei's side . He nodded to her in approval of how she looked now, and then returned to the caravan .
The female ghost followed behind Xue Wei . Although she was staying close, she kept a polite distance, showing her respect .
The middle-aged ghost looked at the two of them and frowned . It seemed that he had misunderstood Xue Wei, there was a lack of interest in the woman, but he had still saved her .
In the end, he could only feel that Xue Wei was inexplicable . The living beings were too different from them, the ghosts . He could not understand his thoughts at all, so he quickly gave up thinking about it .
Xue Wei entered the carriage with Lan on his shoulder and the female ghost behind him . She hesitated slightly before entering the carriage . She was unsure if she was allowed inside, but Xue Wei gestured for her to follow him .
Once again, Xue Wei created a jade tablet with the cultivation technique called Death March and handed it over to her . After being told by Xue Wei, she placed it on her forehead, and the method imprinted itself in her mind .
She was dizzy at first, confused, and uncomfortable, but after digesting the information, she felt much better .
She was quite smart, and it only took some time for her to understand what this was . She did not know about cultivating techniques, nor did she know who Xue Wei truly was, so she felt puzzled .
Cultivating one's Qi? That was a legend in the Ghost Realm; in fact, everyone in the Ghost Realm had long since forgotten their memories of the time they were alive, and thus the cultivation system was also lost .
They had bodies that were made from spiritual energy, but they worked like real bodies . They were similar to the spiritual bodies that King and Emperor ranked experts gained, and thus they could contain Qi just like a mortal body could .
But the cultivation systems were different . The ghosts did not know about cultivation techniques . So, where did this Death March come from?
Xue Wei could see her confusion, but he did not answer the questions that emerged in her mind . Instead, he just casually asked her, "can you cultivate using this technique?"
The female ghost was somewhat confused, but she understood that he had no intention of clearing her confusion, so she quickly calmed down and sat down in accordance with the technique that had been carved into her memory .
She then began absorbing the heaven and earth essence in the surrounding air and began rotating it through her meridians, as stated in the memory . She refined it slowly, but surely, and then she began pouring it into her dantian .
She had never used her dantian since becoming a ghost, and the feeling of something entering it made her feel a mixture of comfort, but it also felt as if she had been eating too much, a strange sensation of being bloated could not be avoided .
She continued to absorb the energy and refining it until she could not store more within her dantian .
It was not that she couldn't advance; however, she had already reached a bottleneck . She was now close to reaching the first layer of the Ordinary Warrior rank . Still, she had to relax and allow her body to get used to the feeling of having Qi running through the meridians before she could actually step into the world of Qi cultivators .
Xue Wei raised an eyebrow in surprise as he saw the female ghost slowly awaken from her meditation .
Her black eyes flashed with surprise as she felt a strange strength in her body that had never been there before .
She could not get used to it right away, but it was not in any way colliding with her spiritual energy, and she felt strangely at ease .
It was as if this energy was made for her body . She instantly understood that this was the legendary Qi cultivation, and she was shocked . Such an important thing, and she was capable of learning it?
Who was this Xue Wei? How could he both free her and then give her a cultivation method as if it was nothing? It was truly puzzling her, but it was also making her even more devout in her decision of never letting him down .
Lan could see the determination in the ghost's eyes, and he could not help but snicker . He had thought that Xue Wei would force this ghost into becoming their slave, and in turn, their guide, but he had done things differently .
When one tried to force others to submit to them, they might end up with someone who would revolt later or harm them . However, what Xue Wei did, was to win over her heart . She would forever support him, never betray him, and even be happy to be a guinea pig for him, to test whether or not it was possible for ghosts to cultivate .
The middle-aged ghost entered the carriage, and when he saw the female ghost, he could sense the difference in the aura around her .
He was rather shrewd and knew that Xue Wei must have given her a cultivation technique . He could naturally not see if it was the same as the one he had gotten, but the fact that she could cultivate was excellent news to him .
