Live Strong in the Wilderness

Chapter 507: Fair Trade

"Ling, Ling Qi, why are you here?" Xu Yi discovered that Ling Qi was not only standing in front of him but also very close, less than half a meter away.

Xu Yi knew that the viewers in the livestream definitely couldn’t see what was happening.

"You have secrets on you." Ling Qi straightforwardly approached and lightly poked Xu Yi’s skin with her finger.

Very hard, very solid.

No wonder, even a level 5 Fierce Beast could only injure the surface of Xu Yi’s muscles.

Xu Yi’s face changed, his throat tightened.

Has the system been exposed?

Should I fight Ling Qi?

Or should I just surrender?

Fighting is no use. Even if I could defeat Ling Qi, could I take on the Spirit God?

"What cultivation technique have you practiced? Your training is very different from others. How about making a trade?" Ling Qi looked at Xu Yi; she was very interested in Xu Yi’s secret, but didn’t intend to dig deeper.

The Spirit Race has the technology to read memories, but it’s not entirely harmless to the brain, and it’s unknown whether it would affect Xu Yi’s Spiritual Power.

Moreover, it would be unfair to humans. After all, Xu Yi is the only Divine Master. If Xu Yi’s strength were affected by her desire for his secrets, it would violate some principles.

Trading is the best way.

"Willing." Xu Yi agreed directly.

As long as it’s about the cultivation technique, that’s fine.

Perhaps the system hasn’t been exposed yet.

"Not going to ask about the price?" Ling Qi glanced at Xu Yi, a bit surprised.

"In our several encounters, I feel that the Spirit Race is not a civilization that likes to take advantage of others, so I don’t think it’s necessary. I trust that I’ll receive a fair price." Xu Yi said smilingly, not to flatter the Spirit Race, but because he genuinely hadn’t suffered in past trades.

"That may not be the case. We do take advantage of the powerful." Saying that, a rare smile appeared on Ling Qi’s face.

After all, Xu Yi’s words were pleasant to hear.

Xu Yi naturally picked up on Ling Qi’s implication: the weak have no advantages to be taken.

"When I awakened my Spiritual Power, I also awakened two cultivation techniques. At first, I thought I had realized them myself, but gradually, I discovered it was a kind of memory, as if from ancient times." Xu Yi explained.

After all, he couldn’t let Ling Qi know about the existence of the system, so Xu Yi had to make something up.

Indeed, there are some memories in human DNA. However, humans can’t extract the information from them. Xu Yi thought that if he went with this line, perhaps Ling Qi would accept it.

"Gene memory?" Ling Qi murmured. This situation isn’t unique to humans; it also occurs in some other civilizations, though it’s relatively rare.

"Gene memory, so it’s gene memory?" Xu Yi’s eyes lit up; he hadn’t expected Ling Qi to use such a term. This meant she was aware of this situation.

Great, this can perfectly explain everything.

"Indeed, there are civilizations with such situations. Human genes indeed contain some ancestral memories. Demonstrate your cultivation technique. Rest assured, after the challenge ends, you’ll receive equivalent rewards." Ling Qi affirmed.

"The one I’m going to demonstrate first, I call it the Body Refining Technique. It’s quite difficult to learn." Saying that, Xu Yi began to demonstrate the Body Refining Technique.

Around him, several Flying Balls hovered. However, these Flying Balls were larger, and it was evident that Ling Qi had just released them. Clearly, she was recording Xu Yi’s Body Refining Technique.

First, Xu Yi went through it in slow motion, then completed it in one fluid motion.

"Indeed, it’s very difficult to learn." Ling Qi found that she couldn’t learn it in one go.

By the seventh time, Ling Qi mastered it.

This speed startled Xu Yi.

After all, he had taken a long time to learn it back then.

"But the effect is excellent, practicing this can strengthen the body. This cultivation technique is of great value." Saying this, Ling Qi glanced at Xu Yi again.

Now she understood why Xu Yi’s body was so strong. It was all thanks to the Body Refining Technique.

And Xu Yi must have practiced this Body Refining Technique in the tent. The Body Refining Technique is very difficult to practice, and for ordinary humans, rash practice would lead to unavoidable bone fractures and other damages.

Xu Yi didn’t practice publicly, surely to protect ordinary humans.

The first Body Refining Technique is so powerful; what about the second cultivation technique?

"The second is the Spiritual Meditation Method, which can only be comprehended but not described. I can infuse it into your brain with Spiritual Power, but it requires your cooperation." Xu Yi explained.

Ling Qi nodded and asked, "How to cooperate?"

"Let my hand rest on your forehead and relax completely; you need to have enough trust in me." Xu Yi said seriously.

Without saying a word, Ling Qi immediately sat down cross-legged.

She was more interested in this Spiritual Meditation Method. It might help her sister.

At the same time, she hesitated about whether to call her sister over.

But after thinking it over, she gave up.

After all, she had come to trade with Xu Yi in private, and it wasn’t something to be publicized.

Xu Yi placed his hand on Ling Qi’s forehead, and then his Spiritual Power entered her brain.

Xu Yi discovered that Ling Qi’s brain contained something similar to a Brain Crystal.

The surging Telekinesis made Xu Yi a bit envious.

Soon, Xu Yi’s Spiritual Power found the memory area, and then he infused the Spiritual Meditation Method into Ling Qi.

This process took less than 5 minutes, and then Xu Yi withdrew his hand.

At that time, Ling Qi didn’t open her eyes.

Xu Yi knew she was digesting the Spiritual Meditation Method.

So he waited by her side for Ling Qi to finish absorbing the Spiritual Meditation Method.

In less than 15 minutes, Ling Qi opened her eyes and said, "A very miraculous Meditation Method, and it even helps enhance Telekinesis."

"Your partner Lu Ke, have you also passed on the Spiritual Meditation Method and Body Refining Technique to her?" Ling Qi stood up, somewhat curious.

"Yes, I only taught her." Xu Yi admitted directly.

"No wonder." Ling Qi nodded and then said, "Once you complete the 500-day challenge, whether successful or not, my sister will give you a big gift. Also, regarding what these two cultivation techniques can trade for, I will consider it carefully and give you options. Moreover, our deal is a secret, and I hope you don’t mention it in the future."

"I understand." Xu Yi preferred that more people, whether humans or the Spirit Race, didn’t know.

Just because he managed to fool Ling Qi today doesn’t mean he can fool others.

The best course of action is to keep it hidden.

Otherwise, the system could really get exposed.
