Super Gen Optimization Fluid
Chapter 6 First Time Cultivating
The universe had many lovers of poetry, and poetry forums naturally became the gathering place for these people.
Earth was located in the star region called the Endaro Star Region, and the Blue Sea Star Xia Fei had visited was also within this star region.
After exploring the poetry forum, Xia Fei's eyes had already spun.
This spaceman poem is in the same league as the Phantom poem. They are not even qualified to be humorous poems, and there are actually so many people who are obsessed with poetry. It is not known what these exoplanets have researched during their civilization that lasted for tens of thousands of years, but it is certain that they are far behind in poetry.
Following Phantom's instructions, Xia Fei registered an account at the Endaro Interplanetary Bank first.
Registration for interplanetary bank accounts is free, but the registrant must be an Ability User and must at least have a Star Light rating.
Xia Fei's passport number had been recorded in the Universal Pan-Human Alliance's database. That allowed him to have the status recognized by the entire Pan-Human Alliance. Therefore, Xia Fei was able to obtain an interplanetary account very smoothly and without any effort.
After getting the account, the next step is to post a poem and sell it to someone who likes it.
The Endaro Poetry Hobbyist website has an automated transaction system. Authors only need to post their poems on the website, and if any hobbyist likes the poem, they can use star coins to buy it.
This method of transaction is a bit similar to the trending reader websites on Earth. The author will upload the first half of the poem, and the second half will be sold as a paid product.
It is a bit painful to only see half of the poem, and if the reader feels they really like it, then, most of them would not hesitate to buy the other half of the poem to get a complete poem as part of their collection.
According to the Pan-Human Alliance intellectual property protection law, if the original author dies, the work is no longer protected by law.
Therefore, it was only legitimate for Xia Fei to sell her predecessor's poetry.
The civilization level of the Earth Federation was extremely low, and they were rarely able to trade anything. Those precious metal and chemical products were not even more valuable than trash in the eyes of extraterrestrial people. If they wanted to make any trade with the current federated resources, it was tantamount to fantasy.
The federal government is also helpless in this matter. Without star coins, they would not be able to trade with other civilizations. If they want to introduce higher levels of technology, they will have to rely on the annual Pan-Human Alliance subsidies. It is a pity that such a miserable subsidy is simply inadequate and not enough to use.
Xia Fei used shortcuts and sold Earth culture. This is a step that even the federal government has not thought of.
Xia Fei uploaded 13 poems in a row. Each poem has a free first half, and a paid second half. The price is set on a 1-star coin for each poem.
Phantom sighed and said, “One star coin is too low. How could you not sell such a beautiful poem with at least a few hundred star coins?”
Xia Fei did not care about the Phantom because this price was definitely not cheap. The Earth Federation that lacks foreign exchange reserves has many people willing to buy each star coin for 10,000 federal dollars. After all, the entire federation did not have a large reserve of star coins, which were of extremely high value due to their rarity.
After using the computer for 1 hour and 59 minutes, Xia Fei turned off the computer on time and walked out of the room before using her credit card to pay the fee.
‘This is probably the most expensive internet cafe in the world.’ Xia Fei felt a pinch as she thought about it.
…
The next morning, Xia Fei carried her travel bag and arrived at the Western Hills of Beijing. According to the request of the Phantom, the cultivation of Shadow of Moon should be done in a quiet realm. Therefore, Xia Fei chose this secluded place.
Between the two mountains was a valley, and it was abandoned by humans but filled with the chirping and fragrance of flowers. There was a stream of water flowing through the valley. This is a great place to hike.
“This place is too remote. Why can't I just practice in your mind room? The spatial zone you created is not inferior to this place at all.” Xia Fei asked.
Xia Fei did not say anything. As an ordinary person in the lower social class, he did not argue and put down his bag. Xia Fei then found a large limestone on the side of a small river and sat down cross-legged.
“Do not cross your legs, sit in a natural position. When practicing killing techniques, the most important thing is to fully immerse yourself in the environment. You must immerse yourself with the surrounding rocks and grass, achieving a state of unification of man and nature. It's very important. The so-called murder is to strike at the least expected moment. Stay in a humble state and deliver one fatal blow! “
Xia Fei then lay down on the limestone. It was now spring, and the valley was rather cold. Under his body, an ice-cold air permeated through Xia Fei's skin.
“Don't be afraid of the cold, this is just a sensation. You have to forget who you are and forget everything. Follow the mantra I told you and set your breathing. Once you reach anatta, there will be no difference between cold and heat. ” Phantom instructs.
(TL Note: Anatta state is a state of selflessness, to forget its own existence.)
Xia Fei followed Phantom's instructions and regulated her breathing. His body had an indescribable flow of aura that gradually circulated along his meridians.
The surrounding sounds gradually became clearer. The rustling sound of leaves due to the wind, the flow of water, the chirping, even the sound of fish scavenging for food all entered his ears.
His body became as light as a feather, as if a leaf was falling in the wind.
There was a wave of warm feelings that Xia Fei was not controlling. It was like a bunch of nimble butterflies. The more Xia Fei wanted to gather them, the more they could dodge easily.
“Do not think to control them, this is not the time yet. Now, you have to follow them and move on. Wherever they go, you follow them.” The Phantom will give Xia Fei timely instructions.
Xia Fei did as the Phantom ordered. It was like a game, and the indescribable energy within Xia Fei gradually familiarized herself with Xia Fei and even attempted to accompany Xia Fei, unlike how she had fought before.
Time passed as Xia Fei sank into a meditative state. The energy within his body and the small chaotic sounds around him had shocked him. Each stone and leaf felt as if they knew how to speak.
It's an amazing feeling. Xia Fei had never had such an intimate experience with nature.
“Alright, let's go back.” The Phantom's voice echoed in Xia Fei's mind as she opened her eyes with a hint of unwillingness.
The sky was drizzling a little, and his clothes were soaking wet all over, yet he was completely unaware of it.
“I have to admit that you have done very well for a beginner. If your speed, power, and consciousness can expand even further, you will become a terrifying killer.” Phantom said with satisfaction.
Xia Fei could only feel extreme hunger in her stomach. “How long have I been cultivating?”
“Three full days.”
“Three days!” Xia Fei was shocked. The full three days felt like several hours in his consciousness, and he was not conscious at all.
“Packaged, we'll be back. You already have early control over techniques to blend in with the environment. For the next step, you need to cultivate in a more complicated environment.”
Ghost lamenting in heart, “Three days! It was only the third day, and he had already achieved synchronization of the aura field and environment. At that time, I had to spend three whole months! Should I tell him that he has completed the first Stage of Shadow of Moon? Forget it, this rapid advancement would make one fall asleep. I'll make him know nothing for now. “
Xia Fei took out the food from her bag and ate it with a big bite. The Phantom drooled just by watching, but he was a spirit and could only watch food helplessly.
The duo were completely unaware that the site of the Endaro Poetry Hobbyist had already exploded at this moment.
