Chapter 2: Cultivating in Secret

them on the table.Have a look!As soon as these words were spoken, everyone picked upand began to look at it carefully. However, as they continued to watch, their faces grew increasingly grim. Especia...Time flies, the years roll by like a torrent. Seven years have passed in the blink of an eye.

In a middle school, as the last bell rang, cheers erupted afterward.

"Wow... It's holiday! Holiday!"

At that moment, a group of students with backpacks frantically ran outside.

At this moment, two young boys, each with a backpack, ambled out the door.

Two people watched as children were constantly being taken away, a boy with a ponytail looked longingly around.

And these two people were none other than Qi Tian and Zhang Churan.

"Qitian: "Chulan, what are you going to do during the upcoming holiday Are you going to go out and play"

Zhang Churan shook her head and said,

"No! I'm going to go see my grandpa and ask Uncle Song to help me find a part-time job. After all, I'm pretty confident about this exam, so going to high school shouldn't be a problem."

And the headmistress didn't have much money either. Even with scholarships, there were still a lot of expenses.

So, I'm thinking of getting a part-time job

And you, Xiao Tian, your grades have always been excellent. You'll definitely pass the high school entrance exam. What are your plans

"Qi Tian looked up at the sky and then said: "

I'm planning to go out and explore. I recently heard that there are many places with lots of business opportunities.

Although I'm young, I still want to try starting a business. You never know, it might just work out.

These years I've saved quite a bit of money, if I just keep it, it's not very useful, might as well give it a try.

As soon as she said that, Zhang Churan's eyes showed a look of envy.

"Oh! You're really amazing, Xiao Tian! Being able to tutor someone and have them agree is impressive."

If I had your talent, I'd also give private lessons.

"Tsk... You, you're hiding so deep and still acting as a teacher!"

Qitian lightly patted Zhang Churan's shoulder and then walked toward the orphanage. Zhang Churan hurriedly followed suit.

"Hey hey! Xia Tian, look, it's so hot today, why don't we get an ice cream to try"

"You pay for it"

"Oh... Qian, you're so rich, shouldn't you be the one paying"

"Hee hee!"

…………………

On a bus heading to the county town, Qitian sat alone in the back row, watching rows of trees rushing past his eyes. He was filled with emotion.

"Seven years already! I've been in this world for seven years. In seven years, I've managed to become a Qi cultivator."

It's just that I still have to endure the hardships of going to school and taking exams, which are simply a test of life!

However, I remember that some things haven't fully taken off yet. The food delivery industry doesn't seem to have fully flourished. Perhaps I can use this money to visit some universities.

After figuring all this out, Qitian went straight to the county seat by car and headed for those prestigious universities.

Until a month later, an inconspicuous industry began to gradually emerge from universities.

But once all of this was done, Qi Tian had already returned to his own small town.

But on his way back, Qi Tian didn't return to the orphanage. Instead, he came alone to the nearby mountains.

As soon as Qi Tian entered the forest, he carefully felt around for any signs of people. After confirming that there was no one nearby, he completely let go and relaxed.

"Hahaha!"

Qitian let out a hearty laugh, then with a burst of strength from his legs, he immediately channeled the golden qi within him. It surged through his body in an instant, enveloping him entirely.

Then, Qi Tian seemed to turn into a small golden man, his whole body instantly jumping over ten meters away. Following that, the forest was as if a golden flash appeared, constantly shuttling through the trees.

It wasn't until over ten minutes later that Qi Tian retracted the mana within his body, sitting slightly breathlessly on a large rock. He closed his eyes and began to regulate his breath.

But after a cup of tea, Qi Tian opened his eyes. Suddenly, a golden light flashed in his eyes.

Qi Tian extended his right hand, a slight smile curving his lips, and said:

"Such a recovery speed, it's truly worthy of the Ao Lai country's inheritance. It's amazing, and this ability to conceal one's aura is also quite terrifying!"

Those so-called outsiders couldn't discover my cultivation. How good! Really good!

Then, next we'll try the Ruyi Jingu Bang technique.

Over the years, although I have been constantly trying to control my magical power, refining it to be subtle and meticulous, it is all for the purpose of cultivating the Dinghai Rod Technique.

Although my current strength is insufficient to cultivate, I can still use this Wish-Fulfilling Stick technique.

After finishing his words, Qi Tian directly snapped a branch off a tree. The branch wasn't long, about the size of chopsticks. Afterwards, a golden light emanated from his palm, and he swiftly rubbed it over the branch.

Instantly, the branch became incredibly smooth. Then, Qi Tian grabbed the branch with both hands, and his internal energy flowed into it along the pathway of the Ruyi Stick technique.

In an instant, a golden light burst forth, followed by a red staff appearing in Qi Tian's hand.

Holding the stick in his hand, Qi Tian's eyes gleamed. He immediately swung the stick out.

"Boom... Bang..."

In an instant, the distant stones were shattered, yet the red stick remained untouched.

Seeing this, a smile bloomed even wider on Qi Tian's lips.

Then, Qi Tian let out a loud shout: "Rise!"

"Whoosh!"

In an instant, the stick, which was originally just as tall as a person, instantly transformed into a red stick over ten meters long.

Next, Heaven-Equal wielded his staff.

"Click... Click... Click..."

"Boom... Boom... Boom..."

Suddenly, a row of tall trees were snapped in half and fell to the ground with deafening crashes.

And seeing this, Qi Tian suddenly let out a hearty laugh:

"Haha! As I expected! Although it's just a rudimentary Wishing Rod technique, the Wishing Rod created is already comparable to some magical artifacts."

But just then, Qi Tian twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at the row of trees that lay on the ground like a fan, saying:

"Damn! This is going to be a problem, I bet they'll get the company involved."

Moreover, it's possible that Fong Babao and the Xu family will come investigate. No, I have to make this place look messed up.

After finishing his words, Qi Tian's staff continuously whirled in his hands, the Ruyi Jingu Bang technique was unleashed directly.

In just a few seconds, the place was transformed, as if it had been bombed and completely destroyed.

After seeing this, Qi Tian retracted his magical powers, and the staff instantly transformed back into a small wooden stick.

Afterwards, Qi Tian took this small wooden stick and went down the mountain. All the way, he hid and dodged until he returned to the orphanage.

……………

Just an hour after Qitian left, a young man wearing glasses and looking quite refined arrived at the place where Qitian had been working, accompanied by a woman who appeared rather disheveled.

"Holy crap! What the hell happened here It looks like it got hit by a barrage of artillery shells!"

"Upon arriving here and witnessing the scene before him, the man with glasses couldn't help but speak."

All that remained before them were trees, broken and shattered, some even charred. There were large and small craters in the emperor penguins' habitat, a testament to the chaos that had unfolded.

And at that moment, the disheveled woman spoke up:

"Sān'ěr! It wasn't a shell, it was an alien who moved!"

"What Baby, you're not kidding me, are you An outsider got involved Could it be the Ten Lords who did this" The man in glasses said incredulously.

The slovenly woman shook her head, her voice calm. "I don't know! I don't know, San'er. I can't beat…"

The man in glasses twitched his lips upon hearing this, then took out his phone and said:

"Understood! I'll report to the company now and see if they have any leads."

But the disheveled woman knelt on the ground, looking over and over again. Finally, she scratched her head and showed a trace of confusion, puzzled.

"Alright, alright! I understand. You just let the people here know!"

Okay, that's enough. We're also getting ready to leave. That Zhang Chulan is fine!

"Mmm! Don't worry about it, the doctor told you to take it easy. That's all, I won't say much more. Gotta go now!"

After finishing, the man with glasses looked at the slovenly woman who was still studying and said:

"Come on! Baby, this doesn't concern us. Let others figure it out. We have a mission to complete."

"Hmm! Where are we burying this one" the disheveled woman said, pulling out a shovel.her person's faces were filled with joy. Especially Wang Ye, he even broke into a smile.As expected, this Aoi Niinagawa's reaction speed is extremely fast. However, no matter how sharp her sword is, i...
