This made Vishdair's whole body suddenly tremble. She, who wouldn't make a sound no matter how painful it was, suddenly let out a soft hum.

It wasn't just pain; it was tinged with a numbing itchiness, causing a bit of inexplicable panic. As she was about to question it, she suddenly felt the joint pains clear up, blockages were opened, and a sense of ease and comfort inexplicably flowed up her heart.

Could it really work?

Soon after, from her right shoulder to her fingertips, he carefully pressed each part. The interwoven feeling of comfort and torment made her a little dazed. She just felt the Fire Attribute Ether in her body turning gentle from frenzy, and warm from scorching, making her a bit drowsy. In her half-closed, half-opened vision was Lin Guang's clear and focused face.

"How does it feel?"

"It's... it's not bad..."

Vishdair tried hard to maintain her tone without going off-pitch, just as she wanted to get up from the bed, she saw Lin Guang's eyes suddenly sharpen.

His hands simultaneously landed in the middle of her slender white arm, seemingly perceiving some troublesome thing, he suddenly said, "Alright, then bear with it a bit more."

"Huh?"

The next moment, that tingling yet extremely comfortable feeling once again flooded into her mind, almost overwhelming it.

"Ahh—!"

...

Half an hour later, covered in sweat, Vishdair dashed towards the bathroom outside the room, leaving only a white bath towel and a suspicious human-shaped water stain.

If she had really chosen the [Divine Hand], she feared she might have rolled her eyes and fainted right on the bed.

Thinking this, Lin Guang suddenly let out a sigh of relief, pinching his slightly aching brow. Using the [Corrective Meridian Opening Technique] while maintaining the Hand of Full Mastery cost him quite a bit of energy.

After this session, Lin Guang roughly understood the nature of this so-called [Corrective Meridian Opening Technique].

For its use, Lin Guang had to rely on the Hand of Full Mastery to clear the flow of Ether and Life Force within a Spirit Beast, and the more advanced the Spirit Beast, the vast ocean-like the Ether and the more complex the Life Force flow becomes, making it difficult for him to "overstep" and use it on high-tier Spirit Beasts.

Simply put, this method is a versatile formula that can be applied according to different situations, but how far it can be truly effective depends on one's own Perception and Spiritual Strength, as well as Computational Power.

Formulas are indeed important, but ultimately, the effectiveness still depends on one's real level.

And just then, while sorting through, he sensed a hard foreign object emitting an energy wave in the small right arm of Vishdair, almost fused with her flesh and blood—that was likely the Source Stone Crystal within her.

Lin Guang used the Hand of Full Mastery's ability to smooth it out for her as best he could. He couldn't guarantee the result, but it should have some use.

However, Lin Guang remembered in the game's setting, Source Stones not only exist in crystal form but also circulate with the bloodstream, which means he would eventually have to press her entire body several times over. Who knows if she can withstand the pleasant stimulation.

This whole treatment allowed Lin Guang to let go of the heavy stone weighing on his heart.

And another stone...

Lin Guang rubbed the Ring of Void, and a semi-transparent, colorless crystal lay in his palm, representing a two-star non-attribute Spirit Pattern [Barrier].

The exchange match is in three weeks, and if he wants to master it before then...

Closing his eyes, he submerged himself into his Sea of Spirit, where the dark-golden illuminated Sea of Spirit, floated always around the System Crystal, a holy glowing rectangular object, like a slate, or a screen—that was the "Blank Spirit Pattern Slot."

As an additional feature of the Power of Whole Heart and Soul, it has various functions, the most useful for Lin Guang at present is that it can "fix" the Spirit Patterns engraved on it, ensuring they do not collapse over time.

In other words—

He's going to cheat again.

In two weeks, he should be able to reach level 13, which is about the minimum standard for learning Tier Two Spirit Patterns, and then Lin Guang can use this crystal.

Casually putting away the Spirit Pattern Crystal, Lin Guang took some time to change the bed sheets, then came to the corner of the living room, where he nurtured a Swaying Lily. Under his meticulous care these two weeks, it... still maintained its half-dead, withered yellow appearance, but if observed carefully, one could notice the bottom pinkish stem had been slightly tinged with a faint blue-purple hue.

Picking up the flowerpot, he went to the balcony, first waving his hand to disperse the surrounding Water Attribute Ether, minimizing the humidity of the balcony, and then opened the cap of the Swaying Lily's flower pot that blocked moisture.

Before he could reach his hand, the slender leaves of the Swaying Lily gently touched his fingers, with the Hand of Full Mastery clearly sensing a wave of joy from this weak Spirit Plant.

Perhaps unlocking the level one Talent [Celestial Doctor], Lin Guang at this time had a more clear and profound understanding of the physical condition of this Swaying Lily.

He took out the prepared Spiritual Liquid from the Ring of Void, pondered for a moment, then sat on a stool, pouring a third of the liquid into his hand, carefully smearing it evenly in his palm, and the remaining part dripped slowly and precisely onto its roots.

Lin Guang's hands and eyes began to glow slightly, then, he placed his hands on the leaves of the Swaying Lily.

Under normal circumstances, this might look somewhat silly—its ability to absorb Ether was already difficult, not dripping it onto the roots for easy absorption, perhaps wishing for its death.

But this was an unavoidable action.

If he wanted to evolve along the Luminescent Lily path, he had to maintain the Swaying Lily's physiological activities at the lowest level.

It sounds inhumane, but if he wanted it to evolve while obtaining the Ghost Attribute, the Swaying Lily had to be on the edge of life and death, slowly absorbing the correct ratio of Ghost and Spiritual Ether with an error margin no greater than 10%, coupled with direct moonlight exposure.

The most Lin Guang could do was use his ability as much as possible to make it less painful during this process.

He silently and gently stroked over the Swaying Lily's leaves, different from the somewhat rough but clearly more pleasant technique used on Vishdair; at this moment, he tried to slow his pace, meticulously passing over every inch above the ground on the Swaying Lily's land while smearing on the Spiritual Liquid.

The image of the Corrective Meridian Opening Technique inadvertently flowed in Lin Guang's mind, adjusting its inner fragile life flow and Ether as much as possible for absorbing his prepared Spiritual Liquid.

At this moment, combined with the fluorescence in the Spiritual Materials, Lin Guang was already slightly luminous. His slender and long hands no longer resembled flesh and blood, but rather jade-like. Under the moonlight, his handsome face, without glasses, didn't seem mortal, but rather as if walked out of a painting.

Perhaps due to being overly focused, Lin Guang's attention immersed in his hands and the Swaying Lily didn't notice that under the silver-white moonlight, a yellow-and-white small beast revealed its tiny figure from the dense crown of the Golden Birch Tree.

It measured just half a meter in body length, with its tail comprising more than half of it, and its lively, innocent eyes. Its nine tail fox-like tails behind it swayed slightly, appearing fluffy and soft, quietly lying on a distant treetop, watching closely, with its two furry little ears perked up, as if paying attention to the slightest sound around.

It didn't make any noise, watching until Lin Guang finished the massage and took a photo of the Swaying Lily to send to Miaomiao, then setting a few Drought Stones on the balcony to prevent moisture intrusion, before returning to his room for rest.

It stepped on the branches, agilely leaping onto the balcony railing, the breeze it brought made the leaves of the Swaying Lily sway, as if waving at it.

Sniffing the Swaying Lily curiously, it wagged its tail, and with another leap, arrived outside Lin Guang's bedroom window.

Through the gap in the curtains, it stared at Lin Guang, who was rarely sleeping instead of in meditation, for a few minutes before jumping again, disappearing into the leaves of the Golden Birch Tree.

Lin Guang slightly opened his eyes, seemingly aware, yet it appeared like a natural action during deep sleep.
