After I transmigrated into the book, both the female lead and I became fragrant

Chapter 13

Shen Qiqi only felt a moment of guilt, which quickly dissipated as she convinced herself with her own logic.

"That Qin Qing is not a good love interest. His focus is solely on cultivation, and he pities Liu Shuang more than he loves her. Although he speaks up for her, it's only surface level. In the end, he sacrifices the female lead for the Qingli Sect. Among the scum in the Qingli Sect, he can only be considered the best of the worst."

Thinking this way, Shen Qiqi's sense of guilt was greatly reduced. She straightened her back and thought to herself, "This male lead is not that great. I might as well take matters into my own hands!"

She took out another book that she had kept in her storage bag, which was given to her by Liu Shuang before. Taking advantage of her free time, she decided to brush up on her basic knowledge of the cultivation world.

"Ordinary people don't have spiritual roots, and both cultivators and demonic cultivators rely on spiritual roots for cultivation... Spiritual roots are divided into five levels: waste, ordinary, intermediate, superior, and heavenly..."

Her onion-white fingertips brushed over the pages of the book as she muttered to herself, "It's better to have fewer spiritual roots... Hmm, I remember that both my Senior sister and I only have one spiritual root!"

The most basic spiritual root attributes are divided into gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. As a heavenly genius, the female lead couldn't possibly be "like a leaf in the wind" as an ordinary person. Her spiritual root belonged to a rare type of mutated dark spiritual root.

Shen Qiqi, the original owner, may not be able to compare to the female lead's heavenly dark spiritual root, but she possessed a superior-level fire spiritual root, only one level lower than Liu Shuang.

Although she was arrogant and domineering in the original story, she had good physical skills. Currently, she was at the second level of foundation building and was considered one of the top disciples in the inner sect. Because of this, many cultivators willingly followed her and acted as "flower protectors."

The so-called cultivation was about cultivating the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Shen Qiqi immediately took the book, sat on the bed, crossed her legs, and tried to follow the cultivation method instructed in the book.

"Lower your breath to your lower abdomen..." She placed her fingers three fingers below her navel and took a deep breath until she felt a swelling sensation in her waist and abdomen, then slowly exhaled.

With the help of the Clear Heart Scripture, she slowly closed her eyes, slowed down her breathing, and after a few minutes, she felt a surge of heat in her abdomen, rushing through her limbs and bones. Something was continuously flowing towards her from the outside world, making her hair and clothes rustle.

Shen Qiqi pondered, this was probably what the book referred to as "the spiritual energy of heaven and earth." This spiritual energy nourished the danyuan, which was where every cultivator stored their cultivation.

With closed eyes, Shen Qiqi deeply felt the presence of spiritual energy in her body.

...It didn't feel particularly amazing, just like soaking in warm water when constipated.

As the book explained clearly, following the direction of this spiritual energy, one could feel their own elixir.

Shen Qiqi felt like she had circled around countless organs and intricate blood vessels before finally seeing something different - a deep red three-dimensional sphere floating behind layers of blue and purple blood vessels. The sphere was not perfectly round and the red color was a dazzling deep red with various colors.
