Having had an enlightenment, Lin Yi didn’t attempt any further experiments, needing time to properly process his new understanding. Besides, he had almost exhausted the remaining spiritual power in his body due to the intense concentration just now.

Drawing talismans consumes more spiritual power than casting spells, because the power of a talisman relies not only on the mystique of the talisman template itself, but also on the amount of spiritual power infused into it during the drawing process.

Lin Yi began practicing the Diamond Sutra. The martial way and the immortal way are different; the former builds on the body’s vital energy, while the latter builds on refining spiritual energy.

A powerful innate martial artist can indeed fight toe-to-toe with a low-level Qi refiner. However, once they reach the Foundation Establishment Stage, martial artists simply can’t compete.

Following the secret technique of the Diamond Sutra, he activated his vital energy and circulated it along a specific route. The secret body refinement technique had already been displayed on the Title System panel, signifying that he had mastered it.

After a few simple attempts, he successfully activated his vital energy, emitting a warmth throughout his body, like an individual who just finished exercising. Anyone standing nearby would feel a wave of heat.

At that moment, Xiao He, who was standing next to him, started to seduce him as Lin Yi had instructed. Sometimes she breathed warm breaths and uttered tempting words, other times she bit his ear lightly. The heat radiating from Lin Yi’s body also made her blush.

Biting his teeth, Lin Yi strived to suppress his inner desire, maintaining a clear spiritual platform, and constantly rotating the essence of the Diamond Sutra. Under such temptation, his title effect improved slightly. His cultivation speed had increased to 18%, whereas the enlightenment effect remained unchanged at 10%.

After considering the additional bonuses from his other titles, he now had a total bonus of 38%, nearly forty percent faster in terms of cultivation speed.

Through constant rotation, he obtained the enlightenment of the title “Color is Void”, which advanced his understanding of the Diamond Sutra. After cultivating for four hours, he felt a sense of emptiness within his body, struggling to maintain the circulation of his vital energy. He had to stop, and his stomach started growling.

Xiao He, who was rubbing her face against Lin Yi’s body, couldn’t help but chuckle when she heard his stomach grumble. It was the first time she had seen a cultivator with a growling stomach, “Immortal Master, you must be hungry.”

An embarrassed look appeared on Lin Yi’s face. As the saying goes, ‘the poor study while the rich practice martial arts’. The poor can only afford to study due to the low costs, while martial artists, who consume a lot, need to eat meat almost daily, a demand that ordinary families can’t afford.

Through his interactions with Old Huang, he also learned about the elevated prices of food in these brothels, which are much higher than outside and they lack spiritual rice and other similar foods.

Checking the time, he realized that he had been in the Xun Fang Pavilion for almost four hours. It should be almost dawn now.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi slowly stood up and said to Xiao He, “Miss Xiao He, we’ll end here for today. Please do not reveal to anyone that I’ve been cultivating here. I appreciate your assistance.”

“Immortan Master, you flatter me. I will keep today’s events a secret and will not mention it to anyone. Thank you for your mercy today.” Xiao He quickly responded, having never encountered someone who came to the Flower Moon Place just to cultivate, without pursuing pleasure.

Lin Yi nodded slightly and was about to walk towards the door, when he suddenly felt discomfort in a certain part of his body which even affected his gait.

“Immortal Master, now that you have finished cultivating, do you want me to…” Xiao He saw his condition and chuckled behind her hand, then made a proposal.

“No need, the Buddha’s cultivation technique I practice strictly prohibits violations.” Lin Yi was initially tempted, but he chose to refuse, not wanting to waste the title of “Color is Void”.

After his refusal, a pop-up suddenly appeared in front of him, “Experience +5 for ‘Color is Void’.”

A smile appeared on Lin Yi’s face. Indeed, perseverance paid off. He looked attentively at the title, noticing that the experience value of [Color is Void] had reached 7 points.

In addition to the reward just now, the experience value produced by today’s temptations was 2 points. Additionally, Level Grinding Novice actually gave an extra point. It seemed that practicing martial arts was also considered leveling up.

Waiting for the body’s discomfort to disappear, he walked slowly out of the room, and Miss Xiao He, with her arm around his, escorted him all the way to the entrance of Xun Fang Pavilion.

The sky was just starting to light up. Lin Yi planned to buy some Monster Beast meat, but the market hadn’t begun yet, and the shops were still closed. Hence, he had to take a carriage ride back home.

In the carriage, he saw many demoralized yet excited cultivators. He couldn’t help but smile, looking up at the slowly rising sun. He felt everything was moving towards a bright direction.

After Lin Yi left, Miss Xiao He prepared to return to her pavilion for rest. She bumped into Hong Yao. “Sister Xiao He, how was the skill of my Immortal Master friend yesterday? I don’t seem to have heard any noise,” Hong Yao greeted her and casually asked.

A hint of shyness appeared on Xiao He’s face, “The Immortal Master was very gentle, careful not to hurt Xiao He.”

“Pfft, this little girl seems to be in love. But he is an Immortal Master; he just wanted a taste. Next time, he definitely won’t choose you,” said a long-legged woman with assets to be proud of, who was dressed very revealingly, snickering.

An angry look appeared on Xiao He’s face. With that baby-like face though, it didn’t have the slightest bit of harm.

“Enough bickering. Miss Xiao He was chosen after all, and you losers dare to laugh at others. Get lost right now,” said a middle-aged woman named Yu Niang who scolded them and then told Xiao He to rest.

When Lin Yi got home, he first cooked some Spirit Rice Porridge and fried two eggs. After finishing his meal, he started cultivating. He digested the spiritual energy in the food, and his feeling of emptiness due to body refinement was relieved.

It seemed the nutrition provided by Spirit Rice could also replenish the body’s vitality. After all, in Huaxia, some monks or Taoists who practice martial arts only eat vegetarian food their entire lives. But their strength is no insignificant matter.

Although he had only cultivated Body Refining Techniques for four hours, he could already feel his body becoming stronger. Also, the proficiency of the Diamond Sutra had reached 15 points, which was much faster than the improvement speed of cultivation techniques.

If combined with Monster Beast meat, the cultivation speed should be faster. However, the price of Monster Beast meat was much more expensive than Spirit Rice.

After a short rest, Lin Yi started his daily routine, first cleaning the chicken coop. After shoveling out all the chicken droppings, he overturned a patch of ground near the yard wall to reveal a hole. He poured all the chicken dung into it.

When he first arrived here, he did not feel safe, so he had dug some traps around the yard wall. They were still being maintained.

After cleaning the chicken coop, he took some accumulated insects and threw them into the coop. The hens immediately fought over it, eating all the insects cleanly.

Lin Yi then used the Cloud Rain Technique to water the vegetables in the yard. Although there was not much spiritual energy in the yard’s soil, the rain induced by spiritual power could provide some nutrients.

While watering, a popup appeared in front of him, “As the host takes care of the poultry daily without complaints, shoveling droppings, he earned the title [Junior Dung Cleaner].”

Seeing this title, Lin Yi couldn’t help but laugh. This title was quite playful and Earth-like. Looking at the title, a row of small words appeared right away, “Animal Affinity +5, Favorability Increase +10%, Success Rate of Feeding Unknown Animals +10%…”
