Chapter 9: The Lingquan surges in the night; it is naturally the best time for cultivation!

Night falls, and the torrential rain recedes.

Pure white moonlight spills onto the earth, revealing a hint of Guiyi amidst the cold.

"Meow~"

The cat sleeping in its dream is the first to wake.

Under the gaze of countless viewers across the globe, it stretches like a human, letting out a comfortable purr.

Then.

The cat actually reaches out a paw toward Su Qiu in a lifelike manner.

【Look! Look!】

【I was right! Su Qiu has repeatedly violated the rules, causing the cat to lose its sanity; now, it is completely a horror possessed by an evil ghost!】

【The cat is about to make a move on its owner; is it going to kill Su Qiu?】

【The first day isn't even over yet, is our Great Yan Empire's Chosen One already going to fail the survival challenge?】

【It's over.】

【.】

Watching the cat reach its paw toward Su Qiu, all the viewers from the Great Yan Empire in the livestream room find their breathing tightening.

At this very moment, they have already imagined the scene of the Chosen One being disemboweled by the cat! Yet, the scene all the viewers expected did not occur.

This cat, which reached its paw toward its owner, did not launch an attack; it simply patted Su Qiu's shoulder affectionately with its cat paw.

It was as if... it wanted to wake its owner from his sleep.

【What is going on?】

【Didn't they say the cat was going to attack Su Qiu? This, this doesn't look like it's about to attack at all!】

【This looks like an action to wake its owner up.】

【That's not right!】

【Cats aren't this smart, nor are they this human-like! The cat here with Su Qiu must be different from the cats with the other Chosen Ones!】

【It is indeed different, but it didn't launch an attack on its owner!】

【.】

The cat's actions leave the countless viewers in the livestream room bewildered.

Everyone is confused about what is happening; what happened to the promise that a cat possessed by Guiyi would attack its owner?

Why is it affectionately waking its owner up now? The tone is all wrong! Just as countless viewers in the Xianshishijie are lost in confusion, the young man on the comfortable bed opens his eyes, smiling as he pulls the kitten into his arms: "Morning, Bai Ze."

Bai Ze rubs its head affectionately against its owner, letting out a cry: "Meow."

Clearly.

Judging by the way the cat and Su Qiu get along.

It likes this owner very much.

This leaves the countless viewers in the Xianshishijie dumbfounded, and they unanimously turn their focus toward the rules on the note.

Thinking: Could the hint about the cat on the note be wrong?

Unfortunately,

their questions are destined to remain unanswered until another Chosen One makes a mistake.

The night is hazy.

At this time of day, it should be when players sleep to replenish their energy and spirit.

Yet, as a survivor, Su Qiu does not play by the rules.

He fell asleep in the afternoon and woke up at night.

At this moment, he is even walking toward the living room holding the kitten, whispering to himself: "The most important time of the day has arrived; it's time to get up and cultivate."

Stunned.

Everyone is stunned! Nighttime,

is dangerous!

This point was a prominently featured hint on the note!

It constantly warned the Chosen Ones not to move about in the Guiyi Zhijia shrouded in night, otherwise, terrible things would happen!

All the Chosen Ones who took this to heart returned to their rooms to sleep.

But what about this one from the Great Yan Empire? Not only did Su Qiu not sleep in his room, but he also violated the rules by coming to the living room, preparing to engage in his so-called 'cultivation'! 【Is our Chosen One perhaps a cultivator?】

【Cultivate my foot, he's just a lunatic!】 【However, this cat seems to really like this lunatic; look, the cats with the other Chosen Ones are all cold and distant.】

【The cat on Su Qiu's side was long since invaded by Guiyi; it knows the character it has to deal with is a psycho. If it were you or me as the Guiyi, we would definitely like him too!】

【Being able to easily handle the Chosen One and break free from restraints—who wouldn't like that?】

【.】

Regarding Su Qiu's continued violation of the rules.

Everyone has already grown accustomed to it.

There is no surprise presented in the livestream room at this moment; instead, there is a calm discussion born of habit.

Although it has been less than a single day, Su Qiu has violated more rules than all the Chosen Ones across the globe combined!

In this Great Yan Empire livestream room.

It seems that it would be the abnormal thing if Su Qiu didn't violate the rules! Just like that.

Everyone continues to watch the progress of this survival livestream with a calm mindset.

"Is the place where the Lingquan is surging on the second floor?"

Su Qiu, who walked out of the bedroom holding the cat, naturally receives a hint from the system, and the location of the Lingquan he has been longing for is marked on the second floor.

That is a place of absolute darkness.

A place where neither the sunlight of the day nor the moonlight of the night can reach.

It is also,

the place where Mom once lived in this home.

Clearly, the second floor of the home is the most terrifying place in the entire area; it is highly likely that it exists there.

However, Su Qiu does not care about this.

After completing the system prompt and receiving the corresponding reward, he has designated this home as a place for immortal cultivation!

Are there ghosts on the second floor?

No! What the second floor clearly has is a Lingquan that can assist one in cultivation! Contact the Lingquan, absorb the Lingquan! Only in this way can he break through the realms between cultivation levels faster and step into the Innate Qi Refining Realm sooner! "Oh, wait!"

Just as Su Qiu arrived at the staircase leading to the second floor of the home, he suddenly stopped his footsteps.

His actions also made the audience in the Xianshishijie heave a sigh of relief.

Everyone knows about the Guiyi on the second floor.

Although Su Qiu has made many mistakes at this time, at least he has not been subjected to a direct attack by the Guiyi.

Once he goes to the second floor.

It is very likely that he will collide with the Guiyi of this area!

The evil ghost that wants to shake off the shackles of the rules and regain its freedom will not watch this opportunity leave Su Qiu's hands.

He will inevitably be killed by it! 【Don't go!】

【The second floor is an unknown area and also the most terrifying place in the entire home; if you go there, everything will be over.】

【Mentally ill people are more sensitive than normal people in some aspects; normal people know the second floor is not right, so a mentally ill person should be even clearer about it, right?】

【He stopped his footsteps; he shouldn't be going up anymore!】

【.】

But is the reality really as the audience thinks?

The answer is wrong.

The reason Su Qiu stopped his footsteps was not because he was afraid and canceled his trip to the second floor, but because he forgot to bring the Spirit Herb and Spirit Material!

The system had clearly prompted that consuming Spirit Herb amidst the surging Lingquan can achieve twice the result with half the effort!

He naturally would not let this opportunity slip by! Thinking of this,

Su Qiu brought the kitten to the kitchen.

Amidst the confusion of countless viewers around the world, he carried several portions of food for himself and the cat, and then returned to the second-floor corridor.

"Bai Ze, are you ready?"

"Next."

"We are going to cultivate in the place with the most abundant spiritual energy!"
