NOVEL WEB Chapter 11: Chapter 11: Cultivation Journey Begins
"That's true. While ordering the water, don't forget to purchase energy drinks and other beverages. We have warehouses, so we should have the things we buy delivered there and I can go collect them. But I think we should also speed up the cultivation plan so that everyone can own a space ring. This way I don't have to run around collecting everything you guys buy."
After hearing Chu Miao's suggestions everyone agreed immediately. Indeed, their little Bunny just came from the hospital and needs to rest more. They can't tire her out.
"Then Bunny, how do we start cultivating? If it's possible to start tonight, then let's do it; there is no better time than the present." Her brother suggested as he too wanted to become stronger to protect his family. He could imagine what the world would become once law and order broke.
"Alright, I will give everyone a marrow cleansing pill, but I suggest you take it inside the bathroom, in the bathtub as things might get messy. Also, it's going to be super painful to get rid of the impurities in the body and open up meridians. So you have to endure at least an hour of extreme pain. If you are sure you are up for it, I will give you the pills now."
"At a time like this, a little pain is nothing compared to being able to protect ourselves once things go south." It was father Chu who said that.
"Okay, then I'll give the pills to you. Tomorrow we can talk about the other things."
Saying that, she produced a bottle with ten marrow cleansing pills inside. She didn't even know why she had carried them with her since they weren't helpful to her in her past life with high cultivation of almost Golden core. But now she was glad she had them. She gave each person a pill, except for her grandfather.
"It's better to go and take it immediately as leaving it in the open disperses the spiritual energy and reduces its effect."
"Okay darling, mommy will go shopping with you tomorrow. Let me go and take the pill." Her mother kissed her on the cheek as she finished talking.
"Alright, mother but I suggest daddy uses the bathroom in the guestroom, as, like I said, things will get messy. Also, no matter how painful the process is, make sure you don't faint and remain conscious."
"Okay, you guys can go. I'll talk to grandpa a bit more." After chasing the other members of the family out, Chu Miao turned to her grandfather and asked, "What about the second grandpa?"
"Your second grandpa doesn't have any other family other than us, and we can't abandon him, but I am also worried about the existence of your space ring; if I told you in ancient times not to tell anyone, there was a reason. Is there a way to help him without letting him know or to make sure he never tells anyone?"
"There is a type of oath, it is a blood oath where he must swear never to tell anyone or he will be reduced to ash by heavenly dao never to reincarnate. The downside is that while this works well in the cultivation world as people fear the wrath of the heavenly dao the most, the modern world is different.
But there is another way; I just don't know if he will accept it; he can sign a master-servant contract with you, which means he can never harm you or your interests. Even thinking about it would have him turn into ash before he could say it. The problem with this type of contract is that if you die as the master, he will die too. So you have to tell him clearly and let him make a decision."
"Okay, according to my understanding of your second grandpa, he won't hesitate, but I will still tell him."
"Okay then, I will teach you how to sign the contract and also give you an extra healing pill for him since he must be the same as you."
After speaking, a small jade bottle with two pills inside appeared in her hand; she handed them over to her grandfather and told him she would give him the marrow cleansing pills the next day after their injuries had healed.
They parted ways and she headed back to her room while her grandfather called for the butler in the study.
Once back in her room, she went straight to the bathroom, took off her clothes, filled the bathtub with warm water, and sat inside. A round smooth pill emanating a light fragrance appeared in her hand.
She didn't hesitate as she popped it in her mouth and closed her eyes. Two minutes later, she started feeling as if ants were biting her skin, and as time progressed, the pain spread to her bones, and she even felt as if her blood was in pain.
This was not the first time she had experienced this kind of pain but it still made her breath hitch. She could imagine what everyone else was going through.
She endured the pain and after an hour, it finally subsided. However, now that she wasn't focusing on the pain something else caught her attention. It was the bad smell and the gore that covered her body. This really exceeded her expectations.
Even though in ancient times she had gone through the same, the amount of impurities expelled from her body was not this much. But then she understood, in ancient times the air was fresher and full of spiritual energy. The food they ate was free from pollution, but things are different now.
No wonder so many impurities have accumulated in the body. Then her grandfather and parents must have it worse since they are older.
She couldn't help but smile thinking about how her mother, who loved cleanliness, would react to this.
After draining the water from the bathtub and taking a one-hour-long shower to get rid of any residue, she went to dry her hair and went to bed. She was actually very tired but after the marrow cleansing, she felt lighter. She even slept better than before.
