Lin Yi didn’t say a word, and walked straight into Xun Fang Pavilion, bumping into a middle-aged woman named Yu Niang.

“Oh, Master Lin, you’re here again, you’re really making our Xun Fang Pavilion shine.” Yu Niang greeted him with a beaming face. In her profession, they loved customers who came around frequently, even if they spent little.

Fanning her fan and emanating a strong scent, she leaned towards Lin Yi and asked: “Are you choosing a new girl today or would you like to stick with the girl from yesterday?”

“The same as yesterday,” Lin Yi calmly answered. Even if he wanted to switch to another girl, he couldn’t afford it. With a rate of eight spiritual pearls per night, it would cost almost two and a half spirit stones a month. If he switched to someone who charged twenty or thirty spiritual pearls per night, he wouldn’t even have enough spirit stones to last half a month.

“Master Lin is indeed a man who values the old. Xiao He, come over here! Take Master Lin upstairs.” Yu Niang laughed and tapped Lin Yi’s chest, before calling over Xiao He.

Xiao He was entertaining a guest with wine, but on hearing Yu Niang, she quickly wriggled out of the guest’s embrace and trotted over with a cheerful bow to Lin Yi, “Master, please follow Xiao He upstairs.”

Lin Yi nodded slightly and followed, heading upstairs. Just as he was preparing to enter the room, a woman dressed in red named Hong Yao quickly approached him. Sporting a coquettish smile, her eyes were misty as she said, “Master Lin, why not choose me? We’re friends so naturally, I won’t treat you unfairly.”

“I can provide you with a variety of ‘fun’ services, assuring you the utmost pleasure. It only costs twenty Spiritual Pearls, which is much better than certain petite ones.” While she spoke, she pulled her clothes down a bit further, revealing more of herself.

“Thank you for your kindness, Miss Hong Yao, but I prefer Xiao He.” Lin Yi rejected without hesitation, walked straight into the room, and closed the door behind him.

Upon seeing this, Hong Yao grudgingly shook her sleeve. She was a disciple from the Hundred Flower Valley, trained in the art of seduction. Yet, she couldn’t outshine a mere novice.

In the room, Lin Yi sat at the table, smiled and said to Xiao He, “Miss Xiao He, I’m entrusting my training session to you today.”

“Thank you, Master, for choosing me again. I will certainly assist in your training with all my heart.” Xiao He hurriedly returned the courtesy. No customer had ever chosen her consistently, leaving her filled with gratitude.

At that moment, Xiao He called for the servants to add hot water to the bath. Then she, clad in sheer clothes, slowly stepped into the bath. The thin layer of gauze, saturated with water, clung tightly to her, perfectly revealing her wonderful figure.

Watching this scene of a beautiful woman bathing, Lin Yi felt an uncontrollable heat within him. And the effect of ‘Color is Void’ gradually heightened with Xiao He’s movements.

He didn’t take out his talisman-making tools, but planned to practice the Golden Finger technique first and use the enlightenment effect from the title to make a breakthrough.

Suddenly, the enlightenment effect increased to 10%. Lin Yi didn’t hesitate, enjoying Xiao He’s allure while practicing the Golden Finger technique. Streaks of gold energy were continuously released and slowly dissipated under his control.

Watching the golden energy in the room, Xiao He showed a hint of envy on her face. Quickly, she composed herself and continued her enticing moves to seduce Lin Yi.

With continuous use, Lin Yi attained his first enlightenment, deepening his understanding of the Golden Finger technique. His eyes focused, releasing another Golden Finger technique, a golden energy erupted from his fingers, transmitting an overpowering aura.

Looking at the golden energy flying nearby, Xiao He felt an imminent danger. After a moment, she quickly said, “Master, spare me.”

At that point, Lin Yi was entirely absorbed in his spell training. Hearing her shout, he hurriedly controlled the golden energy to disperse it in mid-air. A pop-up notification appeared in front of him: “Experience for [Golden Finger] +1.”

“Xiao He, are you okay?” He didn’t pay much attention to the prompt as he asked Xiao He.

“I’m fine. I just felt a sense of danger from that golden sword and got a little scared. I disturbed your training, my apologies.” Xiao He shook her head and quickly stepped out of the tub, kneeling before Lin Yi to admit her mistake.

Lin Yi went over to help Xiao He up, “You don’t need to be so cautious. I’m only human and I won’t bite.” The soaked gauze perfectly outlining her exquisite figure was making it difficult for him to look away.

“Thank you, Master. Let me help you undress. Once I’m against you, the temptation you’ll experience might be greater.” Xiao He noticed Lin Yi’s gaze and softly suggested.

Lin Yi imagined that scene. He was already finding it hard to resist her soaked charm. If she removed her clothes and pressed against him, he might completely fail his training. This ‘Color is Void’ was nothing more than torment.

“No need, I should keep my clothes on.” He shook his head. The resistance against this allure also needed to be cultivated. If it was too explosive from the start, who could bear it?

“As the Master commands, this servant will continue.” Xiao He climbed back into the tub and started bathing slowly.

At this point, Lin Yi glanced at his status panel. The Golden Finger technique has already broken through the beginner realm, reaching proficiency. He couldn’t help but rejoice. This enlightenment effect was indeed very useful.

Meanwhile, his title [Newbie] also gained 10 experience points. Adding the previous one he got, the total experience of his title has reached over twenty points.

As for the remaining proficiency of the Earth Spirit Thorn, it has been polished to 60 points. He decided to abort his current cultivation method.

Since Earth Spirit Thorn would spring from the ground, it would perform significantly under environments with earth. But if it were to be released where there was no earth, the consumption of spiritual power would accelerate.

This limitation made it a niche spell. Cultivators in the initial stages of Qi refining might be able to play with it, but once it came across cultivators who could fly, the spell didn’t serve much purpose. Of course, its price was relatively cheap, too.

So, Lin Yi took out the talisman-making tools and began meticulously drawing the talisman.

During his spare time after overseeing the spiritual field, he would practice the Protective Talisman Template with regular paper to consolidate the talisman-making experience of the original host. By doing so, he could reduce the chances of making a mistake when actually drawing the talisman.

Yesterday, while practicing talisman-making under the effect of “Color is Void”, he experienced enlightenment once. This allowed him to understand the Talisman Template more deeply and his memory of the original owner’s talisman-making experience was integrated continuously.

In his memory, the original host had practiced talisman-making for two to three months and had failed in the end. Therefore, continued practice on regular paper wasn’t very beneficial.

And with the experience of talisman-making from the original host, he could easily draw each stroke of the talisman. What he needed now was to succeed quickly in creating a talisman through enlightenment.

Seeing Lin Yi getting serious about making talismans, Xiao He slowly approached him, seductively pressed her body against him. Compared to yesterday, she was less reserved, maneuvering her fingertips around Lin Yi’s body as she exhaleds gently.

Lin Yi, likewise, restrained himself. Staying focused and serene, he diligently drew the talisman. Compared to yesterday, his movements today were steadier and the lines in his talisman were more standardized.
