Family Cultivation: I Farm and Raise Fish under the Sea-Chapter 54 - Teaching the Disciple

Chapter 54: Chapter 54 Teaching the Disciple

Lu Li brought Yan Miaowei to the attic at the mountain summit.

He settled her in the neighboring room.

He took out a beginner’s book on family cultivation knowledge and handed it to her, it contained information on various meridians and acupoints.

“Memorize the cultivation knowledge in this book first.”

Yan Miaowei received the book and nodded seriously.

Seeing this, Lu Li also let out a sigh of relief, thankful that she could read, which spared him a lot of trouble.

…

Ten days later.

In the great hall of the mountain summit attic.

Lu Li formally began to teach her how to cultivate.

Yan Miaowei was seen sitting cross-legged on a cushion, with her eyes slightly closed, looking very solemn.

Lu Li gently placed his right hand on her forehead, channeling a strand of his mana into her body to explore.

“Hold your breath and focus, rotate according to the first layer of the Qi Cultivation Technique…”

Hearing the encouraging voice next to her ear, Yan Miaowei did not dare to neglect and began to slowly rotate the cultivation technique.

After some time, she suddenly felt a bit of mana emerging inside her, slowly flowing in the depths of her meridians, which felt very comfortable.

“I’ve done it!”

Yan Miaowei was instantly overjoyed.

Lu Li withdrew his mana and nodded, “Cultivate well in the future, do not slack off.”

“Disciple will heed Master’s teaching.”

Yan Miaowei looked obedient.

Lu Li, seeing that his disciple had gotten started, did not attend to her any further.

He went deep into the secret chamber and took out the two round eggs.

His divine sense gently swept over them and he could clearly sense a trace of life force, as if a small life was beating inside them, which was quite magical.

For now, not knowing what type of Demon Beast Eggs they were, he decided to try incubating them.

Lu Li took out some dried grass and made a small nest with it, and placed some spirit stones around it.

Finally, he gently placed the two round eggs in the center and wrapped them with dried grass.

This dried grass, which was dried spirit grass from the bottom of the sea and contained traces of spiritual energy, was specially used for the incubation of beast eggs.

After doing all this, he took out a demon refinement pot, and slowly poured a few drops of spiritual liquid around the two round eggs.

The spiritual liquid slowly penetrated into the eggs, starting to emit a luminous glow.

After observing for a while and seeing no changes, he left the secret chamber.

The following days passed very plainly.

Every day, besides playing with his little disciple, he would come to water the round eggs.

During their prolonged time together, Yan Miaowei gradually opened up, becoming much livelier and no longer as silent as before.

Moreover, under his unremitting efforts, the life force of the two round eggs also greatly increased.

However, he found it strange that the beast eggs showed no sign of hatching.

Such days quickly passed into half a year.

One day, as the sunrise began, golden light spread across the entire mountain summit.

Lu Li lay in a rocking chair basking in the sun, the warm sunlight shining on his chest, making him feel a pleasant warmth, his demeanor extremely leisurely.

“Master, Master… your disciple has finally learned the Fireball Technique…”

Yan Miaowei ran over from the west side of the summit, calling out continuously with a joyful expression.

Lu Li slowly opened his eyes, looking at his lively and lovely disciple, and smiled faintly. He seemed to see in her the same excitement he had felt when he learned his first spell, almost making it hard for him to sleep.

“A girl over ten years old, still so impatient and unpresentable.”

He half-laughingly scolded her.

Hearing this, Yan Miaowei was not frightened and ran straight over: “Your disciple was just too excited, the spell is quite powerful.”

The half-year together had made her understand her master’s personality. As long as she did not do anything rebellious, her master was very easygoing. Now she had also become quite “bold,” occasionally clinging to him and acting spoiled.

Lu Li smiled, “Then show your master the spell, but remember, if you fail, there is a ‘punishment’.”

Yan Miaowei was not afraid and her eyes lit up: “If your disciple succeeds, could you reward Miao Wei with a Flying Sword?”

Ever since she knew that her master was an Artifact Refining Master, she had been pestering him, wishing for a Flying Sword of her own.

Riding a sword and controlling the wind, eliminating demons between heaven and earth is the ultimate dream of every cultivator, and it was her motivation to practice hard.

Now, seeing that her master was testing her, she was not at all panicked and had confidence in her heart.

“Alright, I agree to that.”

Lu Li fondly touched the top of her head.

This little disciple was quite to his liking; she had taken over some chores during this time and they had grown quite close.

Yan Miaowei’s mouth curved into a slight smile. She let go of Lu Li’s arm and walked to a flat area six or seven meters away.

Her hands quickly moved to form magic spells, creating afterimages, and suddenly a trace of spiritual energy fluctuation transmitted through the air. Then, a large orange fireball appeared in the void.

“Fireball Technique, go!”

Yan Miaowei shouted, controlling the huge fireball to smash onto a large rock ahead to her left.

“Bang…”

Following a huge roar, the rock instantly shattered into pieces and scattered on the ground.

“I succeeded!”

Yan Miaowei jumped up excitedly, her face slightly flushed.

She then ran to Lu Li’s side and hugged his arm, looking like she was seeking praise.

Lu Li was somewhat helpless, laughing and chiding, “In the future, when fighting others, you cannot shout out the name of the spell.”

“Your disciple understands.”

Yan Miaowei nodded firmly.

“Master must be tired, let me massage your shoulders for you.”

Saying this, she moved to Lu Li’s back, ready to start the massage.

“That’s enough, your master isn’t tired, here’s the magic artifact for you.”

Lu Li smiled and decided not to tease her further.

He took out a fiery-red flying sword from his storage bag directly.

The flying sword was about a few feet long, radiating fiery-red flowing light around it, with a chilling gleam at the tip, an extraordinary aura emanating from it.

This sword was a mid-grade flying sword and also one of his proud creations.

The reason he hadn’t bestowed an upper-grade flying sword upon her was for fear that she would become overambitious, and also because it might attract the attention of those with ulterior motives. With her current level of cultivation, this flying sword would be sufficient for many years.

Yan Miaowei fell in love with the magic artifact at first sight.

She shamelessly approached Lu Li’s side and took the flying sword with a face full of joy.

“Disciple thanks Master, I will definitely cultivate diligently from now on and won’t tarnish Master’s reputation.”

“Your master doesn’t have much of a reputation, just don’t let me down,” Lu Li said with a smile.

Yan Miaowei smiled, holding the flying sword, and couldn’t wait to run towards the flat peak behind, remembering to call back before leaving, “Disciple understands, I am going to refine the flying sword now…”

Lu Li watched her figure fade into the distance, feeling quite sentimental.

When he first met her at the foot of the mountain, she was timid and obedient; now, in the blink of an eye, she had become much more restless.

And because she had had an ample supply of food over this period, Yan Miaowei’s figure had filled out, and she was starting to look quite the beauty.

After basking in the sun for a while, seeing that the day had heated up as it advanced, he went back inside the loft.

…

In the following few days, Yan Miaowei refined the flying sword a bit, then couldn’t wait to emerge from seclusion.

It was about time for her to settle some matters, as she had never forgotten the humiliation she once endured, grateful that meeting her master had changed everything…

The next morning was sunny and bright.

Yan Miaowei used the Wind Control Skill to fly down the mountain.

Like the Fireball Technique, this spell was also a basic one and not difficult to learn; she had gotten the hang of it in just over ten days.

She rose into the air, fluttering between the mountains and forests, flying swiftly toward the pavilion at the foot of the mountain, like a sprite in the sky.

Chasing the blue skies and white clouds, she flew unrestrainedly through the landscape, feeling incredibly liberated.

Before long, she reached the end of the mountain path.

Yan Miaowei slowed down and saw that not far ahead, her father was leisurely lying on a rocking chair, basking in the coolness, looking very comfortable.

Since he hadn’t overexerted himself recently, his complexion had grown ruddier.

Several hundred meters away, a group of miners was strenuously moving rocks, presenting a stark contrast.

At that moment, a group of miners noticed Yan Miaowei approaching, looking at her with reverent sidelong glances.

Among the miners, there was a familiar figure, Yu Ergou, who now looked at Yan Miaowei with terror.

He now understood that they were worlds apart, that she could squash him as easily as an ant.

The thought filled him with fear, and his legs trembled, leaving him collapsed on the ground, while the surrounding miners looked on at Yu Ergou with schadenfreude.

Yan Miaowei ignored everyone and quietly made her way to the pavilion ahead, planning to surprise her father.

But before she could approach, Yan Ziming sniffed the air, as if he detected a very familiar scent.

He turned his head to look, and a huge surprise filled his entire being.

He saw his daughter standing nearby in a white dress, tall and graceful, smiling at him with an air of ethereal grace.

“Miao Wei, weren’t you studying spells with the Immortal Master? Did you get into trouble and get sent down?”

His expression turned worried, as if concerned about the well-being they owed to Lu Li, the Immortal Master.

“How could that be… Master has been very kind to me and even gave me a flying sword.”

Yan Miaowei approached, took out the flying sword, and played with it in her hands, not wanting to let it go.

Relieved, Yan Ziming marveled at the fiery-red flying sword in his daughter’s hands, “This flying sword looks very precious, remember to always listen to your master…”

“Daughter will never forget Master’s kindness in giving me a new lease of life…”

Yan Miaowei nodded firmly.

Seeing that his daughter was sensible, Yan Ziming felt proud.

“Today, my daughter has come to kill that dog thief, Yu Ergou!”

Yan Miaowei’s face was frosty.

“You may deal with that matter yourself, now that you’re an esteemed Immortal Master. I have been ‘taking care of’ him for you during this time.”

Yan Ziming said with a smile.

Yan Miaowei nodded at his words and then proceeded towards the nearby distance.

Before long, she stood before the miners.

The miners, seeing her, knelt to the ground, but in their hearts, they were extremely envious. The father and daughter were indeed blessed by fate, transforming from commoners to the privileged, something others could not even dream of.

Yu Ergou, not far away, was utterly despondent, having made a mess on the ground.

“Lady, spare my life, I was blind and didn’t see your greatness…”

He cried miserably, begging loudly for mercy.

The miners looked contemptuously at Yu Ergou, distancing themselves a few steps, as if avoiding a plague.

“Hmph!”

Yan Miaowei snorted coldly, channeled her mana, and instantly, a large, orange-yellow fireball appeared in the air, then swiftly hurtled towards Yu Ergou.

“Aah…”

A scream echoed, and Yu Ergou was reduced to ashes in an instant.

The surrounding people watched in fear, the power of an Immortal Master truly extraordinary.

After finishing this, Yan Miaowei flew back to the mountaintop.
