The Most Random System-Chapter 821 - 400: Episode 1: Red Stone Hero

Even Lin Li was amazed at his own thoughts at this moment.

Lin Li then had an epiphany and felt a little scared. This must be the heart demon that arises as one’s cultivation grows on the path of cultivation.

Damn heart demon, how did it turn me into a newbie after reaching Foundation Establishment? So annoying!

Feeling a bit pained, such a good person like me was controlled by the heart demon like this.

Sigh.

Set up by the Heavenly Dao, Heavenly Dao, you win.

Thinking of this, Lin Li went to the window and looked at the sky again, then nodded. Suddenly, he felt that his thoughts right after the breakthrough were somewhat biased. Without the Heavenly Dao...it was actually quite fine.

Otherwise, Lin Li felt he probably wouldn’t have made it to now, likely having been struck by lightning already.

Make up for the deficiency in virtue!

"Lin Li" tapped "Chen Yu Ying’s" wooden fish head, virtue +999"

"Chen Yu Ying: Why did you suddenly tap me?"

"Lin Li: Do you want to know?"

"Chen Yu Ying: ...Forget it, I don’t want to."

"Lin Li: Okay, then I’ll satisfy you. I was just thinking if it was for a horror novel in braille for the blind..."

"Chen Yu Ying: ???"

"Chen Yu Ying: I said I don’t! Want! To hear!"

"Chen Yu Ying: I hate you."

"Chen Yu Ying" tapped "Chen Yu Ying’s" wooden fish head, virtue +999"

"Lin Li: Do you really hate me? ’crying’, ’crying’, ’crying’"

"Chen Yu Ying: Just kidding, I like you."

"Lin Li: ’A little dog carrying a rose happily ran over.’"

After chatting a bit more with Chen Yu Ying, Lin Li let her continue with her own tasks.

Today is Friday, everyone stayed up late, it’s just past eleven. And since Lin Li plans to learn driving first thing tomorrow morning before heading to the library, Chen Yu Ying doesn’t plan on waking up early, so it’s not time for bed yet.

Lin Li’s attention shifted to the system, looking at the newly popped-up mission.

Sharpen the soul and body. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

The mission showed two progress bars.

Thinking for a moment, Lin Li got up and went to the living room to begin practicing the "Body Refining Eighth Rank Technique."

The effect was immediate, and the body progress bar slowly advanced forward.

So in this mission, the body part is simple. If not rushed, doing routine training every morning should definitely complete it; the key lies in the remaining half, the soul.

Sharpen the soul, huh.

From the cultivation guide, Lin Li searched for cultivation techniques related to the soul, and chose one that doesn’t require external aids and can be practiced with just spiritual qi before starting to cultivate.

But as Lin Li expected, similar to the previous Five Elements task, this kind of material not provided by the system from the Cultivation Realm did not get system recognition.

It seems I still have to find methods to sharpen the soul in reality.

After pondering a moment, Lin Li had an idea, searched online for strategies, then sat cross-legged on the sofa, and began focusing on trying meditation.

Lin Li’s comprehension is high, and following those words and video guides online, it didn’t take long for him to get into the state.

A few minutes passed.

Exiting his focused meditation, Lin Li looked at the system.

The soul progress bar did advance, but the advancement was extremely slight, even less noticeable than the few seconds of body refining just now.

It seems like the Five Elements task, the method chosen might not be completely correct.

However, Lin Li didn’t mind, taking it slow is fine. After all, the stupid method has been found, at worst, it’s just relying on time.

Anyway, there’s no time limit on the mission, and he’s not one of those protagonists burdened by intense enmity, with pressing urgency.

Stretching lazily, Lin Li took out his phone and opened the gaming group chat:

"Lin Li: The first stroke of ’life’, also the last stroke of ’death’, the principle of life is nothing more than this. Once the brushwork of life falls, it is destined to lead to closure. Although the last stroke of death stops, it quietly breeds new life, much like a cycle where the start and end quietly join, seamlessly traveling in a circle."

"Lin Li: Sharing my insights from meditation with everyone, hope it’s something nutritious to see."

"Bai Bufan: Didn’t expect this fool to comprehend life and death ’thumbs up’, ’thumbs up’, ’thumbs up’"

"Wang Ze: Didn’t expect this fool to comprehend life and death..."

"Zhou Baowei: Didn’t expect this fool..."

"Zhang Haoyang: Lin Li, I didn’t realize before, you’re quite good at talking about strokes ’thumbs up’, ’thumbs up’, ’thumbs up’"

"Bai Bufan: Lin Li, never realized before..."

Lin Li believed these words from everyone were spoken from the heart.

Seeing everyone’s heartfelt praise, Lin Li nodded in satisfaction, thinking he raised this bunch of idiots for good reason.

Just as he was about to copy and paste this realization to "Three Men and a Dog" to get scolded again, the group messages refreshed.

"Yang Bangjie: If there’s input, then there should be output. Lin Li gives you nutrition, I’ll help you purge some nutrition. Let’s get some nude apron pics."

"Yang Bangjie: ’Picture Collection’"

Lin Li clicked into it in a flash, very quickly.

Then with a slight twitch of his mouth, he quickly exited.

Damn, it was the Chengdu version of the nude apron.

The nutrition came out, but not from the hoped-for head.

The wickedness of man, to such depths.

"Yang Bangjie" was muted for a day by "Lin Li."

"Lin Li retracted a group member’s message."

"Zhou Baowei: Good kill, most righteous episode."

"Bai Bufan: Bangjie, you should study finance in the future, you seem quite fit for private equity investment."

"Wang Ze: Getting into the mood, is there more, give me more @Yang Bangjie."

"Wang Ze: One could only say out-of-towners, especially those laid-back, niche curators in Shanghai, completely don’t understand the kind of intensity in Chengdu."
