My Virtual Immortal Girlfriend Came to Life from a Mobile Game-Chapter 70 – Select Cave Dwelling

"Qingran, this is the cave dwelling of our Sword Pavilion!" On the flying sword, Senior Sister Yue Qianchi pointed to a towering peak in the distance.

Li Qingran focused her gaze and could vaguely see numerous man-made caves and small stone houses. Near these caves and houses were spirit fields tended by cultivators themselves. The plants and decorations outside the caves and stone houses also reflected the different tastes of these cultivators.

For example, one cultivator had planted chrysanthemums at the entrance of their cave dwelling, while another had planted giant cacti. Although she hadn't met them, Li Qingran mused that these two must have vastly different personalities.

Seeing Li Qingran deep in thought and silent, Yue Qianchi thought she found the mountain peak shabby, so she smiled and explained, "Our Sword Pavilion is unlike other sects; we don't have many blessed lands. The Pavilion Master gathered the spiritual energy from other peaks here using formation techniques to increase its concentration. This way, although it's a bit crowded with all the disciples living here, it provides a better environment for cultivation and is more lively, isn't it?"

Li Qingran nodded in agreement, her eyes showing a hint of admiration.

The Pavilion Master must be a pragmatic person.

Willing to sacrifice the sect's prestige to improve the welfare of the disciples.

Back at the Azure Cloud Sect, she had wondered why the Sect Master didn't gather the spiritual energy from several peaks together, instead of letting disciples compete with each other.

When she mentioned it to Daoist Qingxuan, he scolded her for being foolish.

He said cultivation is about competing with heaven, earth, and people.

If everyone eats from the same pot, how can one show the difference brought by talent and personal effort? But she felt that a sect should be like a family, united and helping each other, not fighting among themselves.

Maybe her thoughts were too naive?

"Do you have something to say, Junior Sister?"

"No." Li Qingran blushed, looking at Yue Qianchi's clear eyes, and lowered her head, whispering, "Senior Sister, I think this place is great. Are there any empty cave dwellings?"

Yue Qianchi pointed up the mountain.

"Look, most of the caves from the mountainside up are empty. Some are opened by disciples themselves, and some are pits left by the Master when he was chasing the sect's guardian beast. If you're not satisfied, you can make your own."

"Why does everyone prefer to live below?" Li Qingran asked curiously.

"It's convenient." Yue Qianchi shrugged, "Riding a flying sword is tiring. Our Sword Pavilion's motto is: when outside, stand if you can't fly, sit if you can't stand, lie down if you can't sit, sleep if you can't lie down, and if you can die... cough, cough, that's it."

Li Qingran: "..."

Is this the attitude of Sword Pavilion cultivators towards life?

It's quite laid-back.

As they got closer to the peak, she indeed saw many sword cultivators lying around, like one basking on a turtle's back by the waterfall.

At first glance, it seemed lazy.

But upon closer inspection, it had a unique sense of zen.

"That's a senior brother cultivating the path of emotionlessness, named Yu Yushu. He's comprehending the Dao. Usually, he's as stiff as a coffin board, very boring." Yue Qianchi rolled her eyes, speeding up with Li Qingran, circling the peak once more.

"So, Junior Sister, have you decided where to live?"

Li Qingran blinked, a vision of the cliff top, sunrise, and birds chirping appearing in her mind.

"Senior Sister, I want to live at the top."

"Alright." Yue Qianchi wasn't surprised.

Most disciples choose the top when they first come to the Sword Pavilion.

The scenery is beautiful, and the view is broad.

They think stepping on a flying sword every day doesn't matter.

But even the most beautiful scenery can become tiresome.

Over time, they'll find it painful to have to ride a flying sword to morning lessons every day. Not only do they have to wake up early, but they're also exhausted and slower than others who leisurely walk over.

When summer's heat hits, and the sun beats down, they'll learn their lesson after a day. After enduring summer, winter's fierce winds and snowstorms will make the mountain top icy, while the base is filled with birdsong and flowers. After freezing for a night, they'll learn their lesson too.

Within half a year, these disciples will challenge other seniors to move their cave dwellings as close to the mountain base as possible.

The closer to the base, the stronger the disciple.

Yue Qianchi brought Li Qingran to the top, where there was already a small stone house covered in dust, indicating it hadn't been visited in a long time.

"Alright, Junior Sister, I'll leave you here. If you need anything, you can use a Sound Transmission Talisman to call me. You're welcome to visit me at Cave Dwelling No. 1 at the mountain base."

Suddenly, a hint of alcohol wafted through the air.

The previously lazy Yue Qianchi's eyes lit up immediately. She hurriedly put Li Qingran down, licking her lips, "Senior Sister is off to drink, hehe~ Goodbye!"

Yue Qianchi zoomed down the mountain on her flying sword.

Her voice echoed through the peaks.

"Junior Sister, remember tomorrow's morning lesson, don't be late!"

The sound gradually faded, then rose again:

"Xu An, Junior Brother, I'll count to three. Hand over your new brew, or I'll smash your cave dwelling!"

"Tomboy, don't even think about it!"

Boom—!

Two sword intents rose in the mountains, followed by a series of battle sounds, shaking the ground. A few Celestial Cranes by the cliff dozed off lazily, clearly accustomed to the commotion.

Li Qingran stood by the cliff for a while.

Then turned and walked into the stone house.

"A new life begins. After tomorrow's morning lesson, I'll visit the Scripture Repository."

She was determined to help her Master detoxify!

She wanted her Master to live a long life!

Li Qingran waved her fist to encourage herself, picked up a broom by the door, and prepared to clean the dusty room.

Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed in the void.

[Qingran, it's been a day. Have you missed your Master?]
