The waste she became the first array mage

Looking at the little yellow-haired mouse in her hand, Li Yirou's face turned bitter, "Taxue, you eat it... I don't like this." The kitten was kind enough to bring her food, but she was not worthy of it.

Perhaps influenced by the knowledge she gained in the modern world, which taught her that mice are prone to carrying various viruses and bacteria, she is a little resistant to them.

The original owner's experience in the mortal world suddenly came to her mind. Once, she was extremely hungry and caught a big gray rat. She peeled off its skin and was roasting it when Li Yijin snatched it away and ate it.

The mouse was not fully cooked yet, and blood oozed out when he took a bite.

Li Yirou felt nauseous when she thought of that scene and retched.

Seeing her like this, Taxue let out a "meow" and turned around in a panic, as if she was unable to communicate. She picked up the little mouse, patted its head with her paw, and meowed twice anxiously.

This is... not for her to eat, but for her to feed something to the mice?

The mouse was too small, having only grown a layer of fur, and appeared to be still nursing. She caught it in the snow and asked him to feed it.

So, her pet Taxue got another pet?

Li Yirou found it unbelievable that she had to bring back such a small pet. It was such a hassle.

But she still resigned herself to preparing things, because Taxue looked so expectant, and she would do anything to make it happy.

I took some of the rice that had been put there earlier from the space. I wanted to add some minced meat, but I was afraid that it was too small to digest, so I picked some leaves of the spiritual grass and put them in to cook.

When the rice turned into rice paste, Li Yirou used water magic to speed up the cooling. She carefully led the paste into the reeds and poured it into the little mouse's mouth.

It started eating reflexively, sucking with its little mouth. It was so small, less than half the size of a palm, but it managed to eat almost all the rice soup in the casserole. It smacked its lips and fell asleep again.

Taxue was no longer anxious and watched the scene with satisfaction, just like a scumbag father who claims to love his children but can't do anything about it.

During this time, another spiritual consciousness swept over, as if watching what Li Yirou was doing next. She pretended to know nothing, but became more anxious about buying the formation plate.

She didn't want to be probed by her master no matter what she did. It made her feel too insecure and uncomfortable.

Li Yirou placed the mouse on the pillow she had received when she was a chores disciple, making it its nest, and then she could begin to practice.

She only lacks the last bit of energy. After improving it, she will be able to reach the first level of Qi Refining.

Li Yirou methodically breathed in and out the five elements of spiritual energy and absorbed the spiritual energy of space. When dawn approached, a faint light appeared on her body and soon disappeared.

When she opened her eyes again, she had already reached the first level of Qi Refining! This time, she clearly smelled an unprecedented sour odor coming from her body, like the stench of fermented garbage in the summer, which was really terrible.

Li Yirou pinched her nose and couldn't wait for hot water, so she rinsed it directly with cold water.

The smell was very touching and intoxicating. After she washed it once, she still felt like it was marinated. She frowned and sniffed it, and could still smell a faint smell, indicating that it was not completely cleaned.

When she touched her skin, she found a layer of grease, which was difficult to wash off with just water. She was also very uncomfortable because she had no soap.

Suddenly remembering the Dust Removal Technique, it could clean all the grease from the dismembered beast meat. Li Yiru quickly ran back to the house to take out the spell book that had been distributed to her. There were some simple spells in it that could be learned after reaching the first level of Qi Refining, and the Dust Removal Technique was among them.

She tried to mobilize her spiritual power, clasped her hands together, chanted silently, and cast the spell on herself. When she looked again, one of her arms was already clean.

He tried to expand the range again, continuously directing the spiritual energy to transform into magic spells, and finally cleared all the dirt on the body.

After refining Qi to the first level, Li Yiru clearly felt that the amount of spiritual energy stored in her body had increased a lot, and she could use the spells more persistently, unlike before when she would become exhausted after just a few moves.

Her five senses have been enhanced, especially her sense of smell. She can smell the grass in the yard, the mice in the house, the traces left by footsteps in the snow, and any special smell, making her like a human police dog.

She excitedly went back to the house to continue practicing. After entering into a state of meditation, she was able to attract more spiritual energy. Before, she could only absorb 5 light spots of each kind of spiritual energy, but after entering the first level of Qi Refining, it became 20, which added up to 100.

After a great cycle of one day, the light spot turns into a small mist. This is what is truly called Qi refining, which also condenses the spiritual energy in the environment into purer magic power.

She tried to use the Water-drawing Technique to condense the water spirit in the air into water, and after several attempts she finally succeeded.

Although it was only a small ball, it also meant that she could improve the effect of the spell to a higher level.

Just as he was about to continue practicing and gaining insights, the little mouse curled up on the pillow began to squeak, and Taxue disappeared again. Li Yirou sighed and took out some food to make rice porridge for it.

Thinking about cultivation and the spells she had read, Li Yiru also boiled rice porridge.

But this time, the little fur ball started spitting out after taking a bite, turning its head away and refusing to continue drinking.

It was fine yesterday. Li Yirou frowned, worried that something might happen to Taxue's pet. What happened?

After a moment of suspicion, he suddenly realized that there was no spiritual herbs added to the rice porridge today. This little kid is really picky.

She could only add a few leaves again and boil it, and when she fed it again, it drank it obediently.

……

After drinking, the little fur ball curled up and continued to sleep. Li Yiru observed it for a while and found that its fur seemed to be thicker than yesterday, with light golden hair covering its entire body. It lay there like a dumpling. Although not as cute as Step on Snow, it was also very cute.

"Let's call you Duobao!" I originally wanted to call it Tangyuan, but that didn't reflect the golden glow all over its body, making it look like a magical treasure. I also hoped that I could get more magic weapons, so I gave it an auspicious name.

Li Yiru let out a breath. Her interest in cultivation was interrupted and she suddenly didn't want to continue.

He took out his sword skills to practice the moves, but he still couldn't find the feeling.

He took out the book of spells and learned a few more moves, but he still lacked interest.

I simply made another pot of rice porridge for Duobao and put it next to it to see if it would eat it by itself.

After cooking, Li Yirou divided it into several porcelain plates and placed them on the table next to Duobao to ensure that it would not drown in the rice paste from eating.

While she was bored, Li Yirou suddenly thought that she could go to Tianjie Mountain! Now that she was at the first level of Qi Refining, she could go to the first peak to see if there were any spiritual plants that had escaped.

She practiced several spells again, both for attack and defense, then she made some preparations and went to the dining hall to have a meal. This time she could actually smell a hint of fresh spiritual energy from the unpalatable taste.

Seeing that Aunt Xiuling was in good spirits, she felt even more secure and happy. Her life was getting better and better!

After dinner, she set off for the First Peak.

The first peak of Tianjie Mountain is about 500 meters above sea level. There are many paths on the mountain trampled out by disciples, but nowadays almost no one goes to the first peak and the second peak.

The mountain was covered with lush vegetation, but as she had expected, she did not find any spiritual plants of any quality. Since Li Yiru was already here, she simply picked a basket of various fruits and some flowers and leaves that could be used for brewing.

He used the wood-related magic to sense the situation, and endured the discomfort to find some fat worms. He wrapped them in leaves and put them in the backpack to see if Duobao would eat them.
