Chapter 5 Fantasy Experience
Shen Qingluo was walking on the spacious street, with monks dressed in various costumes coming and going. Communication with the system was done through consciousness, so he didn't attract anyone's attention.

"If I remember correctly, Taisheng Sect has recently recruited disciples, right?"

"It's about the same time as Dao Yizong. If you calculate it carefully, there's still half a year."

"We have to find a suitable place to live during this time."

Shen Qingluo made some inquiries and found out that renting a small courtyard in Biluo City, even one with the worst environment, would cost one hundred low-grade spiritual stones per month. If converted to medium-grade, it would be one piece per month.

Looking at the storage ring, there are now eighty-seven pieces of low-grade spiritual stones left and ten pieces of medium-grade spiritual stones left.

Although it was affordable to rent a courtyard with a poor environment for half a year, Shen Qingluo compared the spiritual stones consumed each time the teleportation array was activated and felt that he would be taken advantage of if he really wanted to rent such a courtyard.

After some thought, she gave up the option of renting a yard.

In addition to the courtyard, there are also some caves available for rent outside Biluo City. Since they are under the jurisdiction of Biluo City, safety can be guaranteed to a certain extent even outside the city.

The rent of these caves is much less than that of courtyards in the city.

A person with a poor environment only needs five low-grade spiritual stones in a month. Even a person with a good environment can only get at most fifty low-grade spiritual stones in a month.

Shen Qingluo came to a property that specialized in leasing caves, stayed there for a stick of incense, and finally chose a cave that rented ten low-grade spiritual stones per month.

After paying the rent for half a year, she got a palm-sized wooden sign. Each rented cave had a restriction in front of the door. This wooden sign was the key to unlocking the restriction.

Half a year was neither long nor short. Shen Qingluo did not spend leisurely time. She focused on her cultivation.

Although the spiritual energy in the cave is thin, it is not absent. I meditate and absorb it every day. Every time the spiritual energy around me is sucked away, some will soon come from other places to make up for it.

More than five months later, Shen Qingluo successfully broke through to the third level of Qi Refining.

After the breakthrough, she consolidated her cultivation and continued to meditate patiently in the cave, waiting for the day when Taisheng Sect would recruit disciples.

The closer the time gets, the busier it gets outside.

With more people, there are naturally more conflicts. Shen Qingluo alone sensed no fewer than ten fights. Of course, subject to the rules of Biluo City, no lives were lost.

Ten days later, with the sound of a bell coming from the distance, Taisheng Sect opened its gate and began to recruit disciples for examination.

The first item in the assessment is naturally the spiritual root test.

Those who can come here are basically people who have already entered the path of cultivation. Mortals are extremely rare. Taisheng Sect has no discrimination against spiritual roots. Anyone with spiritual roots will be given a chance to pass the first assessment.

Shen Qingluo has the dual spiritual roots of gold and fire, so her qualifications are not bad. However, among the people who were tested on this trip, there were nine single spiritual roots, and there was even a mutated thunder spiritual root, so her qualifications for the dual spiritual roots of gold and fire did not attract much attention. .

The focus of everyone's attention is now basically focused on the girl with mutated thunder spirit roots, and Shen Qingluo is no exception. She remembers that this is the third female character in the original book, Yao Molian.

It is worth mentioning that although Yao Molian occupies the third female position in the original book and has a heavy role, she does not like the male protagonist.

To be precise, Yao Molian doesn't like anyone. She is a true cultivator of immortality. The ending of the book is also very good, she ascends to immortality.

While reading the book, Shen Qingluo admired the female supporting character very much. In her mind, this is what a person who cultivates immortality should be like, instead of being like the male and female protagonists who obviously have excellent qualifications but indulge in love and delay their cultivation. After all, It was their own business, but if they caused trouble later and caused innocent people to suffer, they were committing evil!
Speaking of which, she doesn't like to read this kind of novels, but she has a best friend who likes to read bloody sadomasochism stories, and she is often dragged to read them together.
The spiritual root test was over, and soon it was time to move on to the second item.

On the high platform, a Taoist with white eyebrows flicked his sleeve, and a huge golden plate appeared instantly, rising to the sky, and at the same time a majestic voice sounded.

"This is an exorcism spiritual disk. Anyone who experiences strange phenomena under the illumination of this treasure is a demon and should be punished!" As soon as he finished speaking, there was silence all around.

Shen Qingluo retracted his thoughts and looked around. No one had any abnormal reactions. It seems that those evil spirits knew this process and did not come to die.

After about half a cup of tea, the gold plate was put away. At this moment, everyone fell into different illusions.

This is the last test set by Taisheng Zong, the illusion of enlightenment.

As long as you can break free from the illusion on your own, you can officially get started.

Shen Qingluo felt her eyes blur. When her vision cleared, she saw the all-too-familiar bedroom, which was her home before time travel.

At that time, she had just graduated from college. Her first job was because her boss asked her to work overtime from time to time, and occasionally stayed up all night, without any subsidy. She stayed there for a month and resigned because she couldn't bear it. She had just passed the interview for her second job and had not officially started yet.
Recalling the past events in his mind, Shen Qingluo slowly walked to the bedroom door. With the clicking sound of the door lock twisting, he came to the stairs.
Looking at the figure busy in the kitchen, the tip of her nose felt sour. Her father died young, and her sister was abducted by human traffickers. She and her mother were left alone to depend on each other. Now that she is gone, only her mother is left.
Thinking of this, Shen Qingluo felt a sharp pain in his head. Affected by the illusion, some memories became blurred.

She was clearly at home, so why did she subconsciously think she was gone?

The pain was really severe. Shen Qingluo arched his body and covered his head with both hands. There was no trace of blood on his face.

"Luoluo? Luoluo!" A very familiar voice came to her ears, but she couldn't respond.

At a certain moment, Shen Qingluo tilted his head and completely lost consciousness.

When I woke up again, I was in the hospital.

The first thing I saw was my mother with bloodshot eyes and obvious dark circles. Her lips were chapped and peeled because she hadn’t drank water for a long time. She looked very haggard. However, at this time, this picture was abnormal. A genuine smile from the heart appeared on his haggard face.

"Luoluo, you're finally awake! Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something first?"

The headache was still there, and Shen Qingluo shook his head with difficulty, "Mom, how long have I been sleeping?"

"It's been a whole day and night. You suddenly fainted, but the doctor didn't find anything wrong. In the end, they just said it was malnutrition."

Shen Qingluo always felt that he had forgotten something, but he couldn't remember it. He sat up from the bed with his hands on his hands, poured a glass of warm water and handed it over.

"Mom, I'm fine. Go get some rest. Don't stay with me all day. Your body is important."

"Huh?" Mother Shen subconsciously took the water glass and drank it in two gulps. She didn't close her eyes all night. When she saw her daughter waking up, her tense mind relaxed and it didn't take long for her to fall asleep.

Shen Qingluo took off the coat hanging on the wall and gently put it on his mother's back. Looking at the familiar sleeping face, his eyes inadvertently passed by the calendar beside him. His whole body suddenly froze, and there was another stabbing pain in his mind. Pain came, and then scenes appeared, finally settling on a car accident.

Yes, she remembered that July 16th was her birthday and the anniversary of her death. She died in a series of car accidents and traveled through time after death, but her consciousness was still there, so she was given a chance to live again.

With her memory completely restored, Shen Qingluo took one last look at her sleeping mother and said take care. The illusion was shattered at this moment. When her consciousness was about to leave, she saw another real scene.

Still in that familiar home, a girl who looked exactly like her was accompanying her mother.
Dreams come to mind and eliminate obsessions.

Once Shen Qingluo died and traveled through time, her biggest obsession was her unaccompanied mother. Now that she knows her sister is back, her obsession is gone.

From now on, the past is gone and the real monastic life begins!
