In the valley outside the Haotian Sect, Ling Yi was hunting Rabbit.
Ling Yi discovered that only by hunting Rabbit could he guarantee Cultivation Card.
The key issue is that there are an unusually large number of Rabbit here; the entire valley is practically overflowing with Rabbit.
This is a valley with a unique terrain. It is lush with vegetation but sparsely forested, making it difficult for large Beast to enter, and there are relatively few natural predators in the vicinity.
That's why Rabbit are so abundant.
This actually benefited Ling Yi.
"Why does this feel like Leveling Up by Killing Monsters? Is a boss about to suddenly appear?"
There was no boss. Ling Yi spent a whole day farming and collected over three thousand Cultivation Card, along with a whole bunch of other miscellaneous items, making it a considerable haul.
"I wonder if these three thousand Cultivation Card can condense ten thousand Golden Core. We've already used up more than half of the Rabbit here; we can't use them all at once, we need to nurture them a bit more."
In fact, Ling Yi could have used a large-scale attack to destroy the valley in one fell swoop, wiping out all the Rabbit.
But doing so would destroy the valley, which is not what Ling Yi wants to see.
"If it's this difficult to cultivate ten thousand Golden Core, imagine how much more Cultivation Card would be needed to transform them into ten thousand Nascent Souls! It feels like a bottomless pit!"
"Forget it, let's take it slow. Now that I'm in this world, and now that I'm the Protagonist, I might as well enjoy what it's like to be the Protagonist!"
Ling Yi found a Great Qing, sat cross-legged on it, and began using his 1-Day Cultivation Card.
After a while, all one hundred Cultivation Card were used up, and five more Golden Core were condensed.
Ling Yi frowned. "If that's the case, it would take about 20 Cultivation Card to condense one Golden Core."
"To condense ten thousand Golden Core, wouldn't that require 200,000 Cultivation Card?"
If calculated by the number of days of cultivation, 200,000 days would be Wu Bai years.
Of course, that's not how you cultivate.
It's impossible for a person to go through Wu Bai of asceticism without eating, drinking, moving, or speaking.
"It really is a huge pitfall!" Ling Yi sighed in despair.
"Forget it, let's take it slow!" Ling Yi shook his head; there was no point in thinking too much now.
Ling Yi took out a Cultivation Card, but stopped just as he was about to use it.
Look up at the sky.
"Ah!"
A woman's scream, growing louder as it Extreme Speed approached Ling Yi's direction, filled the air.
In the blink of an eye, it had already appeared above Ling Yi's head.
Ling Yi instinctively stretched out his arms and caught the other person in a tight embrace.
"Wow, this is amazing! Is this the treatment for the Protagonist? A beautiful woman sent down from the heavens?"
Ling Yi looked down and couldn't help but exclaim, "What a beautiful woman! She's stunningly beautiful, no, she's a beauty capable of bringing ruin to a nation!"
The beautiful woman glanced at Ling Yi, then closed her eyes and fainted.
Ling Yi has traveled through so many worlds and has seen countless beautiful women.
But this beautiful woman's looks are definitely in the top three.
Her appearance is somewhat like that of Jinli female celebrity in the real world, but her nose bridge is higher and her face shape is more refined.
With her fair, jade-like skin and ethereal Spiritual Essence, her aura was naturally beyond that of ordinary people.
The woman was originally wearing jade-white cesium armor.
However, after the woman lost consciousness, the jade-white armor transformed into a wisp of white smoke, which swirled and eventually flowed into the woman's left wrist, turning into a bracelet.
Without the armor, it's practically the same as being completely unarmored.
The only underwear she wore was practically just for decoration.
Most importantly, this woman has been poisoned—yes, poison you know what I mean.
"Goodness, no wonder he's getting Protagonist treatment, they're practically giving it away!"
If it were someone else, they might be helpless against this kind of poison, but Ling Yi has the memories of the original ancestor, so dealing with this kind of poison is not a problem at all.
However, detoxifying in such a completely disarmed state is rather unorthodox.
Ling Yi channeled a burst of Spiritual Power into the woman's left bracelet.
In an instant, the bracelet transformed into mist again, enveloping the woman's entire body and reverting to its jade-white armor form.
"Phew!" Ling Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
With his hands forming a hand seal, several green runes condensed at his fingertips, then transformed into a beam of green light that landed on the woman.
Easily detoxify.
Ling Yi then placed the woman aside and, while waiting for her to wake up, began to review her cannon fodder role in the story.
The cannon fodder storyline is quite long, probably around 100,000 words.
Ling Yi quickly glanced through it, and couldn't help but twitch his lips.
"As expected, the Protagonist of this scenario world is going for a sacrifice-based playstyle."
This woman's name is Ji Yanran, and her identity is the Holy Maiden of the Demon Realm!
The Demon Realm of this world belongs to the same dimension as the Immortal Realm, and the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm are mortal enemies.
The Demon Realm cultivates Demonic Qi and Demonic Yuan!
Immortal Yuan Immortal Qi Immortal Qi useless against demons, but the Immortal Yuan within an immortal's body is a great tonic for demons.
This is also the main reason why the realms of immortals and demons are mortal enemies.
As for Ji Yanran, she escaped from the Demon Realm after being ambushed in an accident.
She arrived directly in the Cultivation Realm and landed precisely in Ling Yi's arms.
Yeah, it's ridiculous, but it's a short drama.
In the cannon fodder plot, Ji Yanran and Ling Yi were Masai. After the Masai, Ji Yanran was revealed to be Demon Spirit Dual Constitution.
It means that there is both Demonic Yuan and Spiritual Power within the body.
The Demonic Yuan Pool is located at the heart, while the Spiritual Power Pool is located at the Dantian; they do not conflict.
This is why Ji Yanran is able to move freely in the Cultivation Realm without being recognized as a great Demon Saint from the Demon Realm.
Ji Yanran's Demonic Yuan was damaged, greatly diminishing her strength. To recover her Demonic Yuan, she needed to devour Immortal Yuan, but in the Cultivation Realm, only rogue cultivators possessed Immortal Yuan.
However, Ji Yanran was injured and unable to defeat these rogue cultivators, so she had to settle for devouring the Spirit Yuan of cultivators.
Oh dear, this swallowing has caused trouble.
Ji Yanran became a heretical cultivator, hated by everyone in the cultivation world.
She faced death multiple times, and each time she was saved by Ling Yi, who was just a cannon fodder character in the story. As she was being saved, feelings developed between them.
Not only did they save their relationship, they also saved a child.
A Devil Clan, half -Human Clan.
This is where the problem arises: Ji Yanran or the child, only one can live.
If Ji Yanran wants the child, she must die; if Ji Yanran lives, she must give up the child.
Given the Ling Yi plot, the natural choice is to select Ji Yanran, but Ji Yanran wants to keep the child.
In order to keep the child, Ji Yanran chose to leave.
A child needs a lot of energy to grow, so in order to have the child born smoothly, Ji Yanran had no choice but to devour cultivators and obtain their Spirit Yuan.
Just before giving birth, her Devil Clan identity was recognized by a rogue cultivator.
Although Ling Yi arrived at the crucial moment and together with Ji Yanran killed the rogue cultivator.
With the help of the immortal Immortal Yuan of the rogue cultivator, the child was successfully delivered.
However, Ji Yanran also passed away shortly after giving birth.
"A tragic version of the sacrifice strategy? That's utterly awful!" Ling Yi closed the cannon fodder story panel.
Just then, Ji Yanran also woke up.
The first thing he did after waking up was to kick Ling Yi.
Caught off guard, Ling Yi was kicked off the Great Qing.
"No, is this how you Devil Clan treat your saviors?" Ling Yi stood up, looking annoyed.
Being kicked over by a half-dead person made Ling Yi feel somewhat embarrassed.
"Where is this place?" Ji Yanran asked.
