[Inside Lotus Space]
A small girl was sitting on a soft cotton carpet outside of the bamboo pavilion, surrounded by spiritual flowers and plants. She had been reading all the books on the crystal table.
These books provided details about history, geography, practicing, and many more things in the cultivation world.
After Lianhua had done sorting out some of the information that she got, with a thought, she came into the spiritual spring pond. To be able to practice, people must have a spiritual root, and then they introduce the spiritual aura from heaven and earth into their dantian.
Before they started to absorb the spiritual aura of heaven and earth, people's bodies were still mortal. Unless they already practice in the body forging realm, they could get within reach of a mortal body and be able to live longer than a mortal.
To be able to absorb the aura faster, people have to wash their bone marrow by eating pills, elixirs, or drinking precious spring water to open up their meridians.
Those precious things will purify their body of impurities, help them absorb the aura, and help them practice faster.
The big lotus flower has been floating on the surface of the spring pond and under the spiritual pink tree in the middle of the pond. The pink petals fell down and scattered mesmerizingly everywhere on the pond like a fairy land. The pond size was about 30 square meters.
Lianhua floated on the pond, came to the middle of the pond, and sat cross-legged on the lotus. Then she swallowed the washing marrow elixir. Her body couldn't touch the spiritual spring water in the pond yet when her body was still in a weak state.
As she mentioned, when she became the owner of the space, even without cultivation, she could float everywhere she wanted.
The elixir ran through her throat, then flew into her stomach. She then refined the elixir into her body. This elixir had been found in her storage room. It saved her a lot of trouble.
She didn't want to use spiritual water in the pond because the effect of spiritual spring water is much stronger than the elixir. Her weak mortal body couldn't take the risk, or her meridian would burst out.
" ugh..." Lianhua frowned in pain; there was purple blood flowing from her lip, wetting her neck, but she insisted not to fall down and close her eyes.
She must persist until the effect of the elixir is finished. The longer she persists, the stronger she will become.
Enduring the bone-eating pain, she never shouted. Only by passing through the pain will she grow up and be able to walk into this world.
One minute, one hour, and three days later, she became a bloody and black figure.
"My body smelled so bad!" Lianhua said, twitching the corner of her mouth. She wanted to laugh at her current situation. She immediately jumped from the lotus flower, which had been floating on the lake's surface, into the spiritual spring water in the pond.
With the effect of the elixir, she knew that her body was stronger now. She will be able to undertake the pain of washing her body with spiritual spring water now.
When her skin touched the spring water, she felt so hot as if the fire had burned her internal organ. Her face turned red, and the sweat flew down her face to her neck.
Imagine the feeling of your organ being burned alive; the pain cannot be described.
Again and again, she persisted for so long—so long that she didn't know what time it was now. What she knew is that she almost passed out many times, but the pain kept her mind awake.
.......
(4 days later in space)
After she had been soaking in the spring water for four days, Lianhua felt that her body was not as painful as before. She felt comfortable all over her body. She even felt the pure spiritual aura rushing into her skin.
Turning her head down to look at the pond, she noticed that the spiritual spring water in the pond was still clear and clean. The spring water will never be filthy.
She examined her body through the reflection of the clear water in the mirror.
The skin was white and smooth like the egg shell, with white teeth and a red lip. Her small face was pretty, like a porcelain doll. Not the best beauty, but still look strangely attractive.
The long, soft white hair fell down, spreading behind her smooth white back like a fairy doll.
Her pair of red eyes were even more polished, like a gem. The purple-red-blooming lotus flower looked deeper and clearer.
Her hair was not as dry and dehydrated as before.
She seemed to grow a little taller, but unfortunately, she was still short because of her age.
After cleaning herself up, she waved her small hand, and a long red robe covered her small willow body.
Floating bare legs to the middle of the lotus flower under the pink tree, her nails were pink and healthy.
She then crossed her legs, put her hands on her lap, and did the meditation.
The red eyes closed, and she concentrated to absorb the spiritual aura from the air in the space. The aura in space is 500 times stronger than the outside world, which gave her convenience. Many spiritual elements rushed into her body.
She has been practicing day by day. When she was tired, she slept and enjoyed eating fruits. She read books about alchemy, array, beast taming, and many more.
She learned alchemy in the afternoon, practiced at night, and floated around the space for sight-seeing if she was bored. When she finished the books, she started to refine the pills and elixirs. It happened that there were many pill and elixir cauldrons for refinery in the storage room.
(Three years later in space)
Three years in space equals three days outside space, and Lianhua had completed the QI refining period. So she could use some basic of elemental spells.
Sitting on a soft fluffy cushion in front of a jade white cauldron, the cauldron pot carved with an ancient dragon image and complicated pattern looked so exquisite and mysterious. She found this in the alchemy room last year.
She waved her hand; many strange plants were floating around her.
"Let's refine the low-level wound healing pill." Putting the plants into the pill cauldron one by one, she then summoned the fire element and threw it under the cauldron.
" Banggg!! " The explosion voice sounded in the quiet space, and a small girl with a black face was speechless. This was the thirty times in which she failed. It was really hard to be an alchemy master. No wonder alchemy masters status in every world is high. She fails many times, but she keeps trying again and again.
Fortunately, the quality of this cauldron was the best grade of holy pot. If she used the normal cauldron, she didn't know how much money she would lose. This time, she was more careful.
She stared at the herbs in the cauldron to check for the problem. The red flame burned scorchingly, and many herbs were melting slowly. Just when the herbal plants were about to mix together and become a pill, they exploded again.
"I see the problem!" Lianhua hit her head. She got it. To refine the pill successfully, she must not use too much fire when the pill almost melts. She had to reduce the heat wave so that the flame would not destroy the essential aura of the pill. She tried again, and this time she succeeded.
Looking at the ten milky-white round pills emitting white light in her small palm, she smiles satisfyingly. These were the high-grade, low-rank wound healing pills.
If those alchemists outside saw this, they might open their mouths in confusion. You know, for the first time, when you just started to learn alchemy, there was no way you could refine five perfectly high-grade pill products.

(2 years later)
{time outside the space}
Lianhua slept leisurely in her yard, enjoying the peach blossom flowers that were falling everywhere in her space. She was now 8 years old, and she had stepped into the peak of the building foundation period. She didn't continue to practice but spent more time building her foundation to be stronger and more solid. She focused on fighting experience and learning rather than rushing to get stronger in a short time.
Two years ago, outside lotus space, when she began to practice, she found out that her physique was called Chao Spirit Root. It's not a waste root but the best and rarest spiritual root.
Because the method of practicing chao root has been lost since ancient times after battles between gods, fairies, demons, ghost beasts, and many other races, Fortunately, in her Lotus Space, there were two ancient books that introduced the way to cultivate chaotic roots. The speed of absorbing the aura of this root is twice as fast as that of the heavenly spirit root.
If those practitioners in the cultivation world had known her speed, they would have vomited 3 liters of blood. Bullshit, other people work hard to practice and advance from one rank to another rank; the other may die either because of a bottleneck before they can advance to the next realm, and she just relaxes and chills, occasionally cultivates, and then practices faster than them.
Not to mention, others started cultivating when they were three years old, but she started practicing when she was six years old.
Violate !! Really violating the heavenly way.
But not many of them may realize one serious matter. Sleeping, relaxing, and not putting much pressure on yourself were also ways to practice and enjoy the beauty of nature and have a deep understanding of heaven and earth.
You must know that it's not easy to advance from one realm to another. Let's take this as an example: if normal people had a single spiritual root, they would practice and absorb aura for 5 years to complete the forging body period and 10 years or longer to complete the Qi refining period.
7 years or longer to build a foundation and step into the foundation building period. (7 years for people with a single spiritual root and 14 years for people with a double spiritual root)
seven hundred years to complete the foundation period and step into the Jiedan period. (this time referring to a single spiritual root). This time, we also did not count people's bottlenecks.
But if one has rich resources and lucky adventures, their speed will be faster, which means they will have to experience the danger of life to challenge someone or creatures who are more powerful than their realm if they want to advance their realm smoothly, faster, and without bottlenecks.
To practice alchemy, arranging array formation, taming and contracting beasts, and many more could also be ways to solidify the realm.
Especially if one person has a heavenly or mutant spirit root, the practice effect is faster than anyone else's. Unfortunately, if one was unlucky and had no resources to advance, he or she would take a long time to advance or would die because of a bottleneck.
People's appearance will stay the same until they successfully build the foundation. They could choose to keep the same look or continue growing up.
If they reached the Jiedan period, they could adjust their body age. Especially, they could choose to look more beautiful, handsome, and younger if they reached the Yuan Baby period or a higher realm.
When they complete the forging body period, their lifespan will be increased to 150 years; when they step into the Qi refining period, their lifespan will be increased to 300 years; and when they reach the foundation building period, they could live for 1000 years.
If they reach the Jiedan period, their lifespan will increase to 3000 years.
The ages here did not matter, because the higher your realm is, the younger your appearance could be changed.
"It seems like I grew taller and became more beautiful," she said narcissistically in front of a purple mirror surrounded by green vines and red roses in her bedroom.
Since she found out that she had space, she became very obsessed with collecting strange things. Either she went out to fight with beasts to practice, or she went out of space and walked around the valley outside the space to find new plants and seeds to plant in the space.
Now everywhere in Lotus Space was full of spiritual plants and fruits. She also built many cute little cottages made of flowers and bamboo for her babies.
