People in the Xiuzhen world are not fools, they all know how to make the best of their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, so when practicing cultivation techniques, they generally choose to cultivate according to the attributes of their own spiritual roots.

  Lin Qingyao still didn't know her spiritual root until now, after obtaining these basic techniques, apart from wanting to cultivate them, she also wanted to use them to identify her own spiritual root.

  When she returned home, Lin Qingyao had already memorized the incantation and hand seal.

  So she decided to try out the first technique, Lin Qingyao chose the Water Guiding Technique. After all, even if the Water Guiding Technique failed or lost control, the damage wouldn't be too great, and at most it would just be the water she guided that splashed back on her.

  This needs to be changed to fireball technique, if it's out of control, the consequences will be severe, whether it's burning the house or hurting herself and Xu Ran, they are all things that Lin Qingyao doesn't want to see.

  Since Xuran already knew about her cultivation, Lin Qingyao also planned to introduce Xuran to the cultivation world, so she didn't avoid teaching him this insignificant technique.

  Xu Ran was happy to watch, but for Xu Ran's safety, Lin Qingyao still let Xu Ran keep a distance from herself.

  Lin Qingyao clasped her hands together in a lotus shape and then urged on the spiritual energy within her meridians.

  Xu Ran's eyes widened, and Lin Qingyao also looked at him expectantly.

  Before long, a fist-sized water sphere formed in Lin Qingyao's hand, which was already quite good for someone who had just started using the Water Guiding Technique.

  This means... she has a Water Attribute Spiritual Root?

  Xu Ran's face was filled with excitement, looking at the water ball that seemed to have formed out of thin air on Lin Qingyao's hand, this was simply a miracle! It turned out that cultivators really could summon the wind and rain!

  Although Lin Qingyao had mentioned the matter of cultivators to Xu Ran before, the stimulation she gave him was not as shocking as what he saw with his own eyes now.

  After trying out the water attribute technique, Lin Qingyao also tried the fire attribute, earth attribute, wood attribute and metal attribute techniques.

  In the end, Lin Qingyao had lost her initial excitement and turned into a lifelong sigh. She was a spiritual root of water, fire, and earth attributes. Such talent, if placed in the past, would be considered mediocre. In an ordinary sect, she could have become an outer disciple.

  But now the spiritual energy is thin, and the cultivation resources are scarce. The three-attribute spiritual roots can actually be considered as lower-grade qualifications.

  But soon, Lin Qingyao adjusted her mindset. What if she had a three-attribute spiritual root? How many people, even those with single-attribute spiritual roots, were unable to start cultivating and ended up living mediocre lives? Being able to start cultivating was already a great opportunity in itself.

  What about the three-attribute spiritual root? Compared to those with four or five spiritual roots, I'm still an enviable existence!

  It's just that compared to the top, it's not enough, but compared to the bottom, there's still some left! Besides, I still have room for improvement. If I find the spiritual grass in the future, I can produce my own cultivation resources and use them to cultivate myself. Who knows, maybe I won't be worse than those with a single spiritual root!

  After some thought, Lin Qingyao felt relieved.

  She picked up a few simple and practical small techniques, the most notable of which was the Thunder Summoning Technique. For dealing with that unknown existence in the backyard, the Thunder Summoning Technique was absolutely the strongest attacking technique she could learn at her current stage. She still remembered when she first used the Thunder Summoning Symbol, the kind of powerful attack it had!

  After Lin Qingyao learned all of these, she headed towards the backyard.

  To be honest, Lin Qingyao wasn't really afraid of the so-called "ghost" in her backyard. If he was really that formidable, he should have attacked her long ago when she hadn't even started practicing formally, why wait until she came to his doorstep?

  Lin Qingyao didn't think the "ghost" in the backyard was a good one. If it really didn't mean to hurt anyone, it wouldn't have attacked Xu Ran in the first place, almost taking his life. Gu Lao had said before that Xu Ran's life was not long-lived. Before, she thought Gu Lao was a swindler and didn't pay attention to this matter, but now it was different.

  She already knew that Gu Lao was a genuine cultivator, and what he said at the beginning must not be an empty rumor. In connection with Xu Ran's description of the situation, Lin Qingyao can confirm that the "ghost" in the backyard is not a benevolent being.

  It's just that for some reason, perhaps fearing his own strength, he didn't lay a hand on himself. The persimmon is still picked soft, and compared to Xu Ran, he is indeed a good person to bully, so he chose Xu Ran.

  Lin Qingyao thought to herself, she must get rid of him, even if not getting rid of him, she had to figure out the cause and effect! Otherwise, with him around, her own home would be restless!

  Suddenly recalling, there was once when I seemed to feel something peeping at me, Lin Qingyao even broke out in a cold sweat! I'm at home, but occasionally enter the space, if this is known to others, then I must not let him stay!

  Xu Ran heard that Lin Qingyao was finally going to clean up the things in the backyard that had made him seriously ill, and he felt a little nervous, but amidst his nervousness, there was also a subtle excitement.

  He was nervous that Lin Qingyao wasn't a match for the thing, he was excited... That's even better explained, at this age, most young people are in the age of playing online games, and most of them are hot-blooded! Such a thing, he certainly didn't want to miss it, so he asked Lin Qingyao to go take a look.

  Lin Qingyao couldn't persuade Xu Ran, and since this thing had harmed Xu Ran before, she didn't stop him either. She only reminded Xu Ran that if things went wrong, he should escape first and not worry about her.

  She was barely able to hold on, exposing herself in a desperate bid for survival, but Xu Ran's situation was entirely different.

  Although Lin Qingyao didn't think this thing was that formidable, she also wouldn't underestimate it or be arrogant, making thorough preparations and being prepared for anything, was her way of doing things.

  Lin Qingyao and Xu Ran arrived together at the ancient well behind the courtyard, looking at the huge bluestone pressed on top, Lin Qingyao slightly furrowed her brow.

  It seems that someone had noticed something was amiss here at first, but unfortunately, this piece of bluestone can't seal him in! If she wasn't mistaken, the thing inside should be a spiritual cultivator.

  What is referred to as a spiritual cultivator is someone with an exceptionally strong spirit, who after dying and obtaining the opportunity, begins to cultivate. There are also some cultivators who have lost their physical bodies and directly transform into one. The most common ones are those cultivators who did not pass the heavenly tribulation of ascension, they transform into what is known as a wandering immortal!

  Xu Ran wanted Lin Qingyao to move that stone, but Lin Qingyao just waved her hand and told Xu Ran to keep a distance.

  Then he stretched out his hand and with a great effort pushed away the massive boulder that weighed over 100 kilograms.

  Suddenly, a gloomy and ominous aura emanated from inside the well.

  Lin Qingyao was hit by a surge of yin energy and her body felt slightly cold. She quickly circulated her spiritual power to drive out the invading chill.

  A vertical circular well mouth, deep and bottomless, with cold air constantly emerging from inside.

  Lin Qingyao casually picked up a stone and threw it into the well. After a long time, the sound of the stone hitting the water was heard, showing how deep the well was!

  Before Lin Qingyao could react, a black air burst out of the well and shot towards her.

  A low, hoarse voice that didn't sound quite human slowly rose up: "Why have you come to disturb me? Don't you know this is the old man's cave?" He had no choice but to come out; the female cultivator was clearly after him. Even if he could hide for a while, he couldn't hide forever!

  Lin Qingyao sneered, this person was not a good kind even if he was a spiritual cultivator. Just by looking at the ominous aura surrounding him, it was clear that many people had lost their lives to his hands!

  How can one allow others to snore under his own bed!

  He had intended to harm Xu Ran in the first place, so today he must get rid of him!

  Lin Qingyao coldly snorted: "I only know that this is the backyard of my family's house, when did it become a Daoist friend's cave?"

  "A low, hoarse voice slowly came: 'Girl, if you quickly leave, I will spare your life!'"

  Lin Qingyao heard this and suddenly burst out laughing. In the cultivation world, there has never been a case of showing mercy, so when this cultivator said he wanted to spare her life, it was certainly not because he had suddenly become benevolent, but rather because he feared her!

  Lin Qingyao was right, the people in the well were indeed afraid of her.

  When Lin Qingyao first moved into Liu Hutong, this person had indeed thought of making a move on Lin Qingyao. Unfortunately, he was repelled by Lin Qingyao's protective jade pendant and suffered serious injuries as a result! So today, when he saw Lin Qingyao again, there was still some fear in his heart.

  Someone who has such a powerful defensive treasure is definitely not someone who can be easily bullied, and even if you can afford to provoke her, you can't afford to provoke the people behind her.

  He has died once, so naturally he values his life more than others!

  Living in this deep well today is already enough torture, but it's much better than completely disappearing from this world.

  The black air in front of him slowly condensed into a human figure, vague and unreal, looking quite frightening. However, Lin Qingyao's heart was filled with joy, for this person was not a spiritual cultivator at all, but rather a wisp of divine consciousness preserved through evil arts!

  Thus, Lin Qingyao became even more fearless.

  Lin Qingyao coldly smiled and said: "You want to spare my life, but I have no intention of letting you off!" Don't think she didn't feel it, this restless divine sense had already prepared to attack her!

  Lin Qingyao spoke harsh words with her mouth, and her hands didn't hesitate for a moment!

  The best way to deal with divine consciousness is to burn it with fire and strike it with lightning, making it completely annihilated in this world!

  A simple fireball technique, if used in a real martial arts duel, would definitely be useless. However, when it comes to dealing with this intangible and formless divine consciousness, it's just perfect!

  His spiritual consciousness was actually very weak, and Lin Qingyao's fist-sized fireball technique hit his body, burning him to let out a shrill cry.

  This spirit was indeed not very capable, otherwise it wouldn't have been injured by that little bat in the first place. Now facing Lin Qingyao, he was no match, and with the instinctive fear on his body, he became even more like a defeated army.
