"What's the matter?" Lonemoon looked up.

"It's about her cultivation level," Yu Hong said with some difficulty. "She is naturally weak and is not fit for body cultivation, so the sect's way of training would not work with her. She would not be able to follow it. She's not going to be able to train her sword techniques either. Bitao was the one who taught her how to gather Qi into her body, but he is a Dan cultivator, with fire-elemental character. Junior Sister is the only one who has a water-elemental spirit root. She's not suited to continue learning from Bitao."

That was indeed a problem.

"She's the only one with water-elemental spirit root!" Qi Chengyu exclaimed and looked at the other three in shock. "Could she also be..."

Lonemoon stayed silent for a few seconds before he nodded. "That's right."

Qi Chengyu clenched her fists by her side. She knew full well the kind of fate that awaited someone with a pure Yin body-type. Although they were in the immortal realm, and she would not live as miserable a life as Qi Chengyu did. Shortie's body would still be ideal for training various immortal weapons and immortal pills.

"Let me do it. I'll teach her." She also had a pure Yin body-type. Nobody understood the training methods better than she did.

Lonemoon shook her head. He suppressed his urge to talk about the plot. "She already knows how to take Qi into her body. Unless she restarts her entire training... Afterall, you are... Eh? Your skills!"

It was only then that he realised there was immortal Qi surrounding Qi Chengyu, and not demonic or Yin Qi.

"I trained as a demon only to take revenge." Qi Chengyu smiled wryly, "Once I got to the Azure World, I got rid of all my skills and re-cultivated. Now, I am an immortal cultivator."

"That's quick!" Lonemoon could not believe his ears. It was a painful process for an ordinary mortal to get rid of all the skills and training that she learned. Qi Chengyu even had to re-train her Qi from the beginning. She actually managed to do all of this in a few short years!

"It wasn't quick. I spent a full 500 years doing that." It was also because she restarted twice that she did not manage to go through the Lightning Tribulation and became a spirit.

"500 years!" Lonemoon exclaimed. "How can that be? Has it not only been a few..." Wait! Could it be that there was a difference in the way time worked in the immortal realm and the mortal realm?

"How long after you restarted did you make your way to the upper world?"

Qi Chengyu counted in her head and answered, "200 years."

"..." Did she really spend 700 years looking for them in the lower realm? By the looks of it, a day in the upper realm was akin to a year in the lower realm.

He turned to look at Qi Chengyu admiringly. "You've restarted twice and managed to ascend to immortality in just 200 years. That's very impressive already."

"That's right." Yi Qing nodded. She was indeed someone saved by Master. "Ordinary cultivators would need about that long to become a Soul Formation.

Qi Chengyu: "..."

Feng Ying: "..."

Why did it feel like Lonemoon and Yi Qing were mocking them?
