My carefree life in space

Chapter 25 Direct Foundation Building

Guided by Lin Shushu, the group quickly found a suitable place to camp.

After dinner, Mo Chen and the others excitedly discussed the day's battle.

Since the battle ended, they had a vague feeling that their levels were about to break through, so they were exchanging their feelings with each other.

Having gained some insights, they each went into their own tents to further their understanding. It was clear that a major breakthrough would occur after tonight.

Seeing that Mo Chen and the others had all returned to their tents, Lin Shushu smiled at Mo Ze. Mo Ze understood and followed her into her tent.

Back in the tent, Lin Shushu immediately took Mo Ze into the space.

Since turning back into a human, Mo Ze has rarely returned to Lin Shushu's space.

Looking at everything familiar in the space, Mo Ze was filled with emotion. This was the place where he and Shu Shu first truly met.

He came to the meadow and remembered the times he used to frolic here as a rabbit, and the wonderful moments when Shushu held him in her arms and they lay down together on the soft grass for a nap.

A sweet feeling welled up inside her, and a suspicious blush appeared on her face.

Just as she was immersed in the beautiful memories, Lin Shushu appeared.

She found the spirit-testing stone and sensed that Mo Ze had come to the lawn, so she brought the spirit-testing stone with her.

"Place your hand on it, concentrate, and feel it carefully."

Mo Ze did as instructed.

As soon as he placed his hand on the spirit-testing stone, it emitted a dazzling golden light.

Confused, he looked at Lin Shushu and found her frozen in place.

This isn't Lin Shushu's fault. During the day, she was worried about what would happen if Mo Ze didn't have a spiritual root. Who would have thought that the test that night would reveal that he actually had a mutated metal spiritual root?

This is an extremely rare spiritual root, one in ten thousand. Not only is it much easier to cultivate than for people with ordinary spiritual roots, but it is also faster and allows one to reach higher levels.

As for himself, he possessed both wood and fire spiritual roots. If it weren't for the cheat-like advantage of his spatial ability, his cultivation speed wouldn't have been so fast. If he had followed a normal cultivation pace, he might not even have reached the Foundation Establishment stage yet.

Lin Shushu suddenly felt a sense of crisis. She was currently in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, but compared to her earlier cultivation, she hadn't had a breakthrough opportunity for some time.

Now that Mo Ze has tested out a mutated gold spiritual root, once he starts cultivating, he might catch up with me very soon.

It wasn't that she couldn't stand Mo Ze being better than her. It was just that as a senior, if she were to be outdone by Mo Ze, how could she possibly have the face to teach him cultivation?

Shock, joy, frustration... a mix of emotions flashed across Lin Shushu's face. Mo Ze was puzzled; was this a good thing or a bad thing?

Composing herself, Lin Shushu explained Mo Ze's spiritual root advantages and expressed her envy.

Hearing that his spiritual root was one in ten thousand, Mo Ze was overjoyed. This meant that his cultivation speed would be relatively fast, and he would be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Shu Shu.

Mo Ze excitedly picked up Lin Shushu and spun her around a few times. Then, staring at her face, he said solemnly, "Shushu, thank you. I'm so happy. Not because of the excellence of your spiritual root, but because having a spiritual root means I can walk with you all the way, forever."

Lin Shushu sensed his seriousness and let go of her earlier frustration. As long as their hearts were always connected, what did it matter who was stronger or weaker?

Besides, I might not be weaker than him; he might even follow in my footsteps forever.

Having determined Mo Ze's spiritual root, the two went to the library in the attic and selected a cultivation technique suitable for Mo Ze.

Coincidentally, the original owner of this space, that senior, was also a cultivator with a gold spiritual root. Therefore, many of the things he left behind are suitable for Mo Ze to use, including his original cultivation insights, which will save Mo Ze from many detours.

Having chosen his cultivation method, Mo Ze went to the grassland to practice. This was his favorite place, so he chose it as his training ground.

Seeing that Mo Ze quickly entered a meditative state, Lin Shushu stopped slacking off and started cultivating as well.

To be honest, her time away from home did interfere with her cultivation. She used to think that since she was already at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, and in this interstellar era, few could harm her, she maintained a laissez-faire attitude towards her cultivation progress.

Now, I'm no longer alone; I can no longer do whatever I want. There's also Mo Ze, his mentor. I can't be worse off than him, can I?

There was silence for a moment. Both of them were immersed in their cultivation.

As dawn approached, Mo Ze stirred. His body was brimming with spiritual energy, and a continuous stream of spiritual energy was trying to penetrate him.

If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely not be able to withstand so much spiritual energy, and might even have their body burst from the excessive spiritual energy.

But Mo Ze was different. He had consumed a large amount of spiritual items, which had modified his body. He had also lived in the space for a period of time and had long since adapted to the spiritual environment.

More importantly, he benefited greatly from the spiritual energy fluctuations caused by Lin Shushu's breakthrough, which is why he was able to quickly regain his human form.

However, he had not yet begun cultivating at that time, so his spiritual power was stored in his body.

Now, Mo Ze's body is like a switch has been turned on, with spiritual energy spontaneously gathering and flowing throughout his body, transforming his body as if cleansing his marrow.

Qi Refining Level 1, Qi Refining Level 2, Qi Refining Level 5, Qi Refining Level 9, Qi Refining Perfection...

The commotion caused by Mo Ze was so great that Lin Shushu was awakened from her cultivation. She watched as Mo Ze's cultivation level increased dramatically, her eyes filled with shock.

She thought her cultivation speed was already incredibly fast, but she never expected Mo Ze to be even more exaggerated.

Suddenly, a surge of spiritual energy coursed through the space. Looking at this familiar scene, Lin Shushu thought to herself, "Indeed, it's even more extraordinary than what I've experienced."

That's right, Mo Ze has reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

To enter the Foundation Establishment stage on the very first day of cultivation—this is probably unprecedented and will likely never be repeated.

After a long while, Mo Ze opened his eyes.

At this moment, he seemed to have undergone a complete transformation. Although his appearance remained largely unchanged, only those who cultivated could see the difference in him, namely the otherworldly aura he exuded.

She stands tall and graceful, her smile as warm as the moon in one's arms.

Lin Shushu looked at the extraordinary person walking towards her, her eyes full of admiration.

With looks and charisma like that, she'd be a heartthrob if she went out.

"That's wonderful, this is her person." Lin Shushu felt a surge of pride.

"Shushu, I am now more qualified to stand by your side." Mo Ze pulled Lin Shushu into his arms and left a light kiss on her forehead.

A warm touch came from her forehead, and Lin Shushu shyly buried her head in his chest. This was the first time she had been kissed by a boy, and although it was just a light kiss on her forehead, it was enough to make Lin Shushu blush.

The two remained silent, clinging tightly to each other, enjoying the warmth that belonged only to them.
