Chapter 298: All Trash, Throw It Away
Chapter 298: All Trash, Throw It Away
After uploading the video, Zero-One emerged from the bedroom and sat cross-legged on the living room sofa, seemingly in a state of feigned slumber.
Not far away, Xie Xinsu secretly glanced at Zero-One, her heart at ease.
In front of the robot, she made no attempt to hide her peculiarities, such as her meditation and cultivation practices.
The foolish robots of this world didn't understand the significance of her actions.
Even if they witnessed her, they wouldn't record or make any associations.
"The spiritual energy here is so rich; there must be an ancient treasure present!"
Her pink nose twitched as she sought to locate the source of the spiritual energy.
"Once they're asleep, I'll search for that treasure! Such an unclaimed treasure is surely a heavenly opportunity!"
Xie Xinsu was thrilled.
Could this be the sweet relief after enduring hardships? After suffering so much, it was time for her to enjoy some bliss.
She continued her meditation and cultivation.
However, despite the dense spiritual energy, her cultivation progress was worryingly slow.
She soon discovered this issue.
"A cat's body is ultimately unsuitable for the cultivation methods I learned before..."
The cultivation method she had learned was a grand and noble path.
However, it was more suited for human cultivators.
The immortal arts suitable for beast-like cultivators were something she hadn't mastered in her past life.
Now, as she cultivated, it felt strange.
"No need to worry, just keep cultivating. If there are no issues, continue!"
All immortal arts were interconnected through the grand path.
Even if minor problems arose, there were no issues at all.
At this moment, the night grew darker.
The entire Jian'an residential area, aside from a few streetlamps emitting a yellowish glow, appeared exceptionally dim and quiet.
The entire Arcstar, in space, resembled a large sphere enveloped in mist.
Within this mist, there were two distinct types of fog, devouring each other as they intertwined.
In the living room, Zero-One, who had been feigning sleep, suddenly opened its eyes.
It couldn't sleep.
Especially after uploading the video.
Every now and then, it would check its video, eager to see if there were any new comments.
The video of a cat cooking and meditating was so intriguing that it quickly gained traction.
Indeed, within a few hours, there were already hundreds of comments.
"Can I come to your place to watch the cat cook?"
"I stole the video and sent it to my goddess, inviting her to watch the cat cook at my place."
"It's 4 AM now, and I have to get up for work in three hours."
"Someone with influence, is this video real or fake? How can a cat cook, and what's with the meditation?!"
"It's normal for a cat to cook; they can understand human instructions, so cooking is not surprising!"
"???"
The video comments varied.
Most praised the cat's cuteness and intelligence.
Of course, some insisted that the video was fake.
After all, a cat cooking was too far-fetched.
In this world, for a cat to understand human instructions was already impressive, let alone cooking.
Ordinary cats couldn't possibly cook.
Zero-One observed these comments, its electronic heart stirring with ripples beneath its calm exterior.
It posted a comment in the comment section, clarifying the situation.
"Video is real, not edited."
Seeing the increase of over a hundred followers, Zero-One felt a mysterious joy in its heart.
It glanced at the already slumbering Xie Xinsu, its mind contemplating what to film tomorrow.
A few days later.
Xie Xinsu lay limp on the sofa, her heart filled with grievance.
This robot was not human! In the past few days, it had been constantly bothering her.
Performing cooking at first was tolerable, but then it made her demonstrate the twin section staff.
Unfortunately, her frail body couldn't even hold the staff properly, and the performance... was pitiful.
This robot was not human, yet it kept going.
Xie Xinsu felt like an animal performer.
Especially when she saw Zero-One boasting about the video's views, she wanted to comment.
"Conflict of interest, no animal performances!"
But she didn't have a phone.
Lying on the sofa, she felt her cat life was dim.
Yet, the thought of cultivation gave her renewed energy.
Once she achieved success in cultivation, she would force this robot to cook, wield the twin section staff, take baths, and film it all.
With this determination, she cultivated with renewed vigor.
"Hmm... The spiritual energy is so rich, and that treasure... so fragrant."
Her face was immersed in intoxication, like a white cat savoring corn, her eyes glazed over.
Regarding the treasure, Xie Xinsu's original plan was to sneak in and steal it while Qi Yuan was absent.
But that detestable robot didn't give her a chance, even making her film videos, preventing her from getting close, let alone entering Qi Yuan's room.
At this moment, Qi Yuan, inside the room, opened his eyes, a smile appearing in his eyes.
"Finally, Foundation Establishment... No more fear of flying."
After over a month in this world, he had finally reached the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Of course, unlike the typical Foundation Establishment in the Immortal Dao, this time, it was much simpler. Qi Yuan had Carnival search for some mutated sea monsters, which were then refined into Foundation Spirit Materials for his Foundation Establishment.
After achieving Foundation Establishment, Qi Yuan's strength increased significantly. Even if he encountered problems while flying, he could now safely fall from the plane without worrying about the risk of falling to his death.
"Unfortunately... This curse is still too powerful.
Even with Foundation Establishment, I've only extended my lifespan by a few years, unable to resolve the curse."
The curse on his body was somewhat terrifying.
Qi Yuan had a premonition that unless he reached the Yin Spirit Realm, it would be impossible to solve the problem.
This was quite an exaggeration.
In his mind, the image of that featherless bird he had seen before kept resurfacing.
That bird's position must be very high.
Otherwise, how could he, an ordinary mortal, have seen that bird in his mind and then be afflicted with a curse, leading to his death a year later?
"However... If I participate in the Martial Arts Tournament now, I should be able to dominate, right?"
Qi Yuan thought to himself.
The curse had been suppressing his strength all this time.
But now, he was officially a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator.
Moreover, his Martial Arts skills had also improved rapidly.
The Bright Martial Resonance Fist had reached the tenth layer.
Before the start of the Martial Arts Tournament, he was confident he could reach the twelfth layer.
And then... break through the Martial Limit.
He was eager to see the world after breaking through the Martial Limit.
Just then, a message on his phone interrupted Qi Yuan's thoughts.
He opened the message and found a video.
In the video, there was a cat skillfully wielding a twin section staff, looking quite impressive and interesting.
The sender of the video was his old classmate, Li Yan.
Below the video, there were a few more messages.
"Is this your account?"
"I came across this video, and it feels familiar."
"Isn't this your home in the video?"
"You got a new cat, it's pretty funny. How did you film this video?"
"So envious, with ten thousand fans, remember to bring me along if you become famous!"
In these messages, Li Yan seemed rather excited.
Qi Yuan casually replied to these messages.
"It wasn't me who filmed it, my robot filmed it."
"The cat is just a silly cat, I picked it up on the street."
"It can't just eat and drink for free in my house, it has to work to earn money."
"So, I had the robot Zero-One film it."
"The 1619 Book 1 Bar 1 Look 1 No 1 Wrong version!"
Qi Yuan sent several messages in quick succession.
Qi Yuan sent several messages at once.
Li Yan's reply came quickly.
"It was filmed by a robot, and the cat is real, the video isn't edited, your cat is amazing! Alas, I'm on a business trip, otherwise, I would definitely come over to see the cat you're raising, it's so impressive.
"Damn capitalists, working every day is exhausting."
"I wish I had a cat like that, filming a few videos a day, who knows, maybe I'd become a top influencer, and I wouldn't have to work."
Li Yan's words carried a hint of envy.
After all, she could already foresee that Qi Yuan, with the help of this cat, might even achieve financial freedom.
This made her emotions quite complex.
It was like a struggling student who had been expelled from school suddenly passing the entrance exams for a key university.
"You're right, working is out of the question, I'll never work in this lifetime, I'd rather play games."
Qi Yuan agreed with Li Yan's words.
"Next time, I'll come with Wang Xu to visit and see the cat.
Oh, by the way, how was the blind date? I heard Cui Fan got arrested, did you know? The person he introduced doesn't seem reliable."
Originally, Li Yan didn't want to talk about these things.
But seeing that Qi Yuan was about to make a fortune, she felt a bit unbalanced, thinking that the blind date candidate might get a bargain.
"At least I borrowed quite a bit of money from her."
Qi Yuan finished replying and thought of the maiden in the tight suit.
Now that he had the means, he also planned to repay the money.
But... He couldn't find the person."
Following Qi Yuan's style, he would definitely find the person and repay the money.
But with his mental health certificate, not repaying the money was understandable, right?
He turned off his phone and looked towards a pile of materials in a box not far away.
"And this pile of Foundation Spirit Material scraps... The smell is too strong, it's polluting the air."
Refining the mutated sea monster meat also produced a lot of waste.
These wastes had all sorts of strange smells, making people feel psychologically uncomfortable.
"Zero-One, come and throw these wastes into the trash can."
Qi Yuan ordered.
Instantly, the robot Zero-One opened the door and, following Qi Yuan's instructions, carried away the box filled with waste.
As Xie Xinsu stood nearby, she couldn't help but rush in upon seeing the contents of the box. Her eyes widened in surprise.
At a glance, she recognized that the items inside were Foundation Establishment Spirit Materials.
Moreover, they were of considerable rank.
According to the categorization of their world, many of the Foundation Establishment Spirit Materials before her were of high quality.
Several of them were even top-tier.
It was known that Xie Xinsu had used a second-grade Foundation Establishment Spirit Material when she established her foundation.
But here, there was a pile of top-grade materials, and she couldn't help but feel envious.
If these Spirit Materials were brought to the Xuan Tian Sect, their strength would undoubtedly increase significantly.
Where did Qi Yuan get so many treasures?
Xie Xinsu was envious, but more than that, she felt anxious and frustrated, as if these treasures were being wasted on someone who didn't appreciate them.
She had heard it all! This cold and indifferent man, who didn't recognize the value of these Spirit Materials, was about to throw them into the trash like garbage.
"Meow, meow, meow!" Xie Xinsu frantically rolled around, trying to stop Qi Yuan.
Qi Yuan glanced at her, as if seeing through her intentions to stop him. "These things stink so badly. They're polluting the air. Zero-One, take them outside quickly."
Qi Yuan issued his command without hesitation.
Zero-One, the robot, carried the box, ignoring Xie Xinsu's meows, and left the room.
Xie Xinsu remained in the living room, her eyes vacant and filled with pain.
This dog of an owner... He doesn't know a good thing when he sees it!
Where was the stench coming from these Foundation Establishment Spirit Materials? They were clearly emitting the wonderful essence of the Immortal Dao.
Unfortunately, she was just a cat, one that was bullied mercilessly by the robot.
And the owner... He had a mental health issue, which made communication challenging.
She decided to add a few words to the prefix of this dog of an owner.
A cold and unappreciative man, a turtle who doesn't know a good thing when he sees it!
She felt a deep resentment, as if her own treasures were being trampled on by an unappreciative boar, and it pained her.
At that moment, in the neighboring house, a group of people arrived at Yang Shan's place.
Yang Shan was filled with confusion as he recognized some of them.
One of them was the son of the top military figure in their region.
That second-generation heir was from a world completely different from Yang Shan's.
Yet, at this moment, that heir seemed to pale in comparison to an ordinary-looking man standing beside him.
This ordinary-looking man was the leader of the group.
Yang Shan couldn't help but wonder.
Could it be... that he, too, came from a prominent family?
"So, he's been practicing martial arts this whole time?" Yang Shan asked.
The ordinary-looking man turned to Yang Shan, his gaze calm and exuding a certain quality. "Indeed... He's been training tirelessly, and his martial talent... is unparalleled. He might even break the Martial Limit!" Yang Shan's eyes lit up with fervor as he spoke.
The Martial Limit was a legendary threshold.
Breaking it would be a historic feat.
Yang Shan wasn't sure why this group had come, but with orders from above, he had no choice but to reveal what he knew about Qi Yuan.
He subtly hinted at Qi Yuan's importance in the martial world, fearing these people might have ill intentions.
In his heart, he wondered why they were seeking information about Qi Yuan. Could it be related to Qi Yuan's parents?
"A Martial Artist... His choice is intriguing!" The second-generation heir smiled, his tone carrying a hint of mockery. "Brother-in-law, I don't see the need for collaboration. He's only been at it for a year."
Yang Shan was perplexed by this strange statement.
The ordinary-looking man, Luo Ping, pondered for a moment before speaking. "You're right. If he were like me, he wouldn't have chosen the martial path."
Even with the revival of spiritual energy ten years later, the martial world had only regained a fraction of its former glory.
But it was still far from the heights of the Immortal Dao.
It seemed Qi Yuan didn't possess the memories of the future ten years; he had only lived for a year, which was insignificant.
Luo Ping, as a reincarnator, had returned to the present and contacted a prominent family from the Seven Star Constellation.
He fulfilled his previous life's agreement and married the family's jewel, the little princess of the Two Seas Region.
In his past life, such a woman had been unattainable, someone he couldn't even dream of meeting.
But in this life, she was his, a beauty beneath him.
This was the opportunity of a reincarnator.
Luo Ping took advantage of his information advantage, seeking various benefits and opportunities.
The greatest opportunity was... Immortal Connection.
Initially, he had wanted to meet Qi Yuan, hoping to gain some useful information.
But Qi Yuan died after only a year, and Luo Ping had no idea what valuable information he might possess. Even ten years later, the Seven Star Constellation family hadn't contacted him`.
Otherwise, why would he foolishly embark on the martial path?
"True, he's not the ideal partner for collaboration... but we can still meet him." Luo Ping said.
