My Daily Cultivation Life with a Clumsy Female Disciple

Lionheart Raging Flame Beast!

The position where the poisonous pill appeared is in front of the den of the Lionheart Raging Flame Beast.

So Qin Ran understood that when he arrived here, Jian Yuanjie had no intention of hiding. It was clear that all the signals left before were intentionally allowed by him to let Long Qiqi stay.

The message was:

Want to save Long Qiqi?

Sure, come and fight your way through!

Qin Ran narrowly avoided the Lionheart Raging Flame Beast's sneak attack and turned around to look at the beast, which was engulfed in flames, trembling with fear.

This was the culprit that caused Huang Feiyu's death and also the beginning of Tian Wenjin's tragic fate. A fourth-level demonic beast that was even stronger than a fifth-level one!

As he watched the beast approach, his body started to heat up, gradually showing signs of evaporation.

...He was just a watery incarnation.

He couldn't help but retreat.

Water and fire, which one restrains the other, is actually a difficult question to answer.

Water can extinguish fire, and fire can make water evaporate. So it all depends on the strength of each drop of water and each spark of fire. A small amount of strong water restrains fire, and a small amount of strong fire restrains water.

All things in the world both generate and restrict each other.

Ultimately, it comes down to cultivation and strength.

So, who is stronger, Qin Ran or this Lionheart Raging Flame Beast?

Clearly, it's the Lionheart Raging Flame Beast.

Qin Ran is only an incarnation, while this "Strongest Fourth-level Demonic Beast," the Lionheart Raging Flame Beast, was able to severely injure Huang Feiyu amidst the siege.

Thus, we can conclude that the Lionheart Raging Flame Beast restrains Qin Ran.

Fighting is definitely out of the question. This incarnation has no magical artifacts, talismans, or elixirs. It's completely defenseless. Going head-to-head with such a ferocious beast would be suicidal.

Running away?

"I don't know if I can outrun it." Qin Ran wasn't sure either.

He saw himself retreating, and suddenly his figure flickered, creating two Qin Ransone charging toward the Lionheart Raging Flame Beast, and the other turning to run away.

However, Qin Ran's strength was really too weak. The incarnation that charged at the Lionheart Raging Flame Beast was slapped away with a single swipe. He had only run a few meters before the beast caught up to him, rushing at him with blazing flames!

He hurriedly used the Water Dream Shield technique to block the deadly kiss from the Lionheart Raging Flame Beast.

The water shield shattered upon impact, and the beast's momentum didn't stop. It directly rammed into his back, sending him flying thirty to forty feet away. His body wavered between a watery form and a human form, on the verge of collapse.

"Roar..."

The Lionheart Raging Flame Beast stopped on the ground, its front paws pressing down, as if it was about to pounce again.

"I'm just a few hours old, and it's going to end like this?" Qin Ran couldn't help but shed tears of despair.

Just as he was thinking so hopelessly, a bubble suddenly appeared out of thin air, enveloping the Lionheart Raging Flame Beast.

Qin Ran quickly looked up to see the Saint Mother who saved him; it turned out to be his true form.

"Keep exploring forward, be cautious, and don't fall into any more traps." Qin Ran cast a disdainful glance at his own incarnation and advised.

"Sigh!" The halo of the Saint Mother disappeared, and the aura of the Capitalist emerged. Qin Ran helplessly complied and continued forward.

Qin Ran watched as his clone went ahead to explore, and he silently summoned the "Nine Provinces Cauldron."

"Clang!"

He held the cauldron by its handle and charged forward, delivering a powerful strike to the head of the Lionheart Raging Flame Beast that was about to break free from its illusory form.

... Even in its dying moments, the Lionheart Raging Flame Beast couldn't understand why it couldn't overpower a human. Its physical strength and intensity seemed weaker than that of this human.

If only it could understand what being an alchemist among the human cultivators truly meant, it would be even more bewildered.

After dealing with the Lionheart Raging Flame Beast, Qin Ran closed his eyes and sensed the location of his clone, furrowing his brow.

His clone... seemed to be in danger again. It appeared to have unwittingly stumbled upon a formation. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Usually, it was Qin Ran who used this kind of method to outwit others. Today, he was finally outwitted by someone else.

"I'm really exasperated!" Qin Ran cursed inwardly. "Are you the clone, or am I the clone?! And now I'm trapped in a formation!"

But he had no choice. He had to hurry and rescue his clone.

For one, his clone housed his divine soul within it. If it truly died or suffered injuries to the divine soul, his main body would also be affected. Secondly, his current technique of dividing his divine sense was not yet mature. It took a long time to recover before he could divide it again... and the cooldown was too long. He couldn't afford to wait.

Qin Ran found his clone and discovered that it had fallen into a formation set up using an array disk.

"Ah! I really..." He was speechless as he looked up at the sky. This clone had such a glaring flaw. It only inherited his caution and didn't inherit any of his professional skills.

He had spent so much time learning about formations...

After a while, he finally managed to rescue his clone.

"Be more careful!!!" he warned once again.

"Okay! Okay! I'll be careful," his clone reassured, rushing forward once more.

And so, the clone endured numerous injuries as it traversed the "minefield" and finally arrived outside the Land of Immortal Legacy, covered in wounds.

Approaching the mist, his clone conjured a bubble to envelop itself, then continued forward. As it lifted its foot and the tip of its toe touched the mist, it was about to step into the fog when suddenly, it remembered something...

Jian Yuanjie knew that the mist was toxic. So how did he avoid the mist this time?

Or rather...

Perhaps he never entered at all!

All the signs along the way pointed in this direction, but it was merely a psychological suggestion played by Jian Yuanjie, making people believe he had gone to the Land of Immortal Legacy when in fact he hadn't.

Just as he realized this, an alarm bell rang loudly in "Qin Ran's" mind. He abruptly turned around and saw a massive Heaven Overturning Seal hurtling towards him!

"Enter it! Hahaha..."

Jian Yuanjie's laughter, having succeeded in his scheme, reached his ears. Unable to evade the attack, Qin Ran was struck head-on by the Heaven Overturning Seal, and his entire body was flung backward into the mist. In mid-air, he caught sight of Jian Yuanjie holding a plump girl on a nearby tree branch.

"Qin Ran!" These were the last words he heard from Long Qiqi before he flew into the Land of Immortal Legacy.

"She never called me 'Master' in the end." For some reason, this thought suddenly crossed his mind.

"Sploosh!" He spat out a mouthful of water, splashing onto the ground of the Land of Immortal Legacy.

"Phew..." Qin Ran took a moment to catch his breath, then slowly got up from the ground. "Even though she didn't call me Master, I still have to go and save her."

He stood up and walked towards the exit.

But as soon as he took his first step, he felt that something was off. He quickly turned around...

Not far behind him, amidst the mist, there was a monkey approaching him, its body rotten and occasionally revealing bones, its appearance grotesque and terrifying!

A ghost monkey!

Last time he came to the Land of Immortal Legacy, one of their teammates brought along these ghost monkeys. They were only discovered at the very end.

"When did Jian Yuanjie get involved with these things?" He wondered.

Suddenly, behind the ghost monkey, several wriggling tentacles were moving towards him.

"Chi Snake..."

Qin Ran's heart trembled with fear, and his limbs disobeyed him as he turned and ran.

At his current position, there was only a distance of a dozen meters to the outside of the Land of Immortal Legacy. These monsters had never been heard of causing trouble in the Hengduan Mountains before, so as long as he ran outside the mist, he would be safe. As long as he reached that place...

However, just as he had run two meters, he was silently caught by extending tentacles. He struggled for a moment, but without any warning, the ghost monkey's sharp claws suddenly pierced through his back!

"Ah... Ahh..."

Qin Ran, this first clone of Qin Ran, turned into a watery form in fear, pain, and screams, and dripped onto the ground. Then, the residing soul within him appeared.

"They wouldn't even spare the soul?" Qin Ran thought to himself, turned around, and continued drifting towards the misty outside.

But he had only drifted two meters when the ghost monkey grabbed him again.

That ugly ghost monkey, with its claws grasping his soul, hoarsely uttered, "Disgusting... soul..."

Then it shoved him into its mouth.

Before this strand of his soul was swallowed by the ghost monkey, Qin Ran heard a roar from deep within the mist, something like the furious roar of the "blood dragon bone": "Shiji Demon Willow!! You're not dead yet..."

Experiencing being killed by the ghost monkey, Qin Ran, thanks to the clone, had the opportunity to feel it: the ghost monkey pierced through from behind, its ghastly claws dancing in front of his chest like withered branches; the ghostly aura from the monkey spread through his body, making him feel his body gradually growing cold, losing sensation in his blood, muscles, and bones, bit by bit; then, he disintegrated, died.

What does it feel like to be eaten by a ghost monkey? Qin Ran, thanks to his clone, had the opportunity to experience it firsthand. He was grabbed by the ghost monkey like a little chick, and the monkey opened its blood-stained mouth, revealing a horrifying sight. Helpless, he was thrown into that terrifying abyss of a mouth. The ghost monkey moved its teeth up and down, biting off his hand, its tongue coiling around his body. He was turned over passively, his legs bitten off, and his body was ground by the teeth, chewing him into pieces. The tongue and throat of the ghost monkey wriggled, swallowing him without any resistance. He was sucked into the darkness, and he died.

"Thud..." Qin Ran fell from the tree where he was hiding, collapsing on the ground, unable to move for a moment.

He knew that when his clone died, he would be affected, but he didn't expect the impact to be so significant. It was as if he had truly died.

After a long, long time, he finally regained his senses.

He stood up, devoid of vitality, his face pale, walking like a walking corpse, as if his soul had already died.

"This round failed," he muttered in a daze, then walked towards the place where his clone disappeared, where Long Qiqi and Jian Yuanjie were still there.

"Hahaha..."

Seeing Qin Ran being thrown into the Land of Immortal Legacy, Jian Yuanjie knew that he was undoubtedly dead and burst into wild laughter.

Qin Ran was cautious, which made it difficult to kill him, but he didn't expect that using only Long Qiqi as a small bait would easily eliminate Qin Ran.

He laughed with Long Qiqi, saying, "That's why cultivators must be free from attachment! Qin Ran was so cautious, but in the end, he died because of you!

"I have to thank you for leaving a signal all the way! Letting Qin Ran come and deliver himself to death.

"This is killing two birds with one stone, it's perfect!"

"Killing two birds with one stone?" Long Qiqi had been crying since Qin Ran was thrown into the mist. When she heard Jian Yuanjie's words and realized that she had caused Qin Ran's death, she stopped crying and asked him, "What else do you want?"

Jian Yuanjie threw her to the ground and replied, "The detailed information of the disciples of the Dao Sword Sect that you have been collecting these days."

So it was the useless identity information...

Long Qiqi felt a chill in her heart because of that, which caused Qin Ran's death.

She got up from the ground, tears streaked across her face, and said to Jian Yuanjie, "It's still in the Dan Peak. I will throw it away after the assessment. If you want it, go and get it at the Dan Peak."

Jian Yuanjie took out a sword from his storage bag, jumped down from the tree, pointed at Long Qiqi, and said, "Either you take it out yourself, or I kill you and find it in your storage bag?"

Seeing that Jian Yuanjie was not influenced by her words at all, Long Qiqi looked at the killing intent in his eyes and instantly understood that the useless identity information not only caused Qin Ran's death but also would lead to her own death.

"It's over, it's all over!" she cried in her heart.

She thought she was clever, leaving a signal all the way, but she was outsmarted by Jian Yuanjie... now she was truly going to die.

Trembling, Long Qiqi took out a stack of paper from the Qiankun Bag and handed it to Jian Yuanjie. Softly and weakly, she asked, "Can you spare my life? I can serve tea, pour water, do laundry, and cook. I eat very little... I can also refine pills... Look, I can even compile so much personal information..."

"Hehe!" Jian Yuanjie sneered, took the information, flipped through it, confirmed its authenticity, and decided to find out more about Long Qiqi.

"You dare!" Long Qiqi sensed Jian Yuanjie's intention. Knowing that he was not easily swayed, she truly believed that he intended to kill her to eliminate any future trouble. She hurriedly threatened, "Qin Ran has only entered the Land of Immortal Legacy. He might not necessarily die. When he comes out, you will also face death!"

"Do you think..." Jian Yuanjie held a sword in one hand and the information in the other, glancing at Long Qiqi with a sidelong look. He laughed, "Is it just the Land of Immortal Legacy? When Qin Ran enters, there will be many natives of the land waiting for him inside! He will undoubtedly die!"

Upon hearing this, Long Qiqi's face turned pale... Did Qin Ran really die?

"Li... Li Shiyin!" she hastily said, "Aren't you afraid of Li Shiyin? Li Shiyin will definitely investigate her master's cause of death, and she will ultimately trace it back to you!"

"Li Shiyin?" Jian Yuanjie recalled Qin Ran's extremely talented disciple and hesitated.

Seeing a glimmer of hope, Long Qiqi continued, "Li Shiyin's feelings for Qin Ran go beyond that of a master and disciple. She also harbors romantic affection for him. If you kill Qin Ran, she will stop at nothing for revenge. But I can help you..."

However, Long Qiqi was ultimately too young, and she hadn't considered that if Jian Yuanjie killed her, Li Shiyin would never know that it was Jian Yuanjie who killed Qin Ran. And if Li Shiyin lost both Qin Ran and Long Qiqi, she would be nothing more than a reckless sword cultivator without strategy, posing no threat to Jian Yuanjie.

While Long Qiqi was speaking, Jian Yuanjie suddenly raised his hand and threw the sword towards her.

"No!" Long Qiqi shouted, thinking that she was about to die.

"Clang..."

At that moment, a pill shot out, deflecting Jian Yuanjie's sword and embedding it in the ground near Long Qiqi.

"Who?" Jian Yuanjie quickly looked in the direction where the pill came from and saw Qin Ran emerging from the bushes.

Qin Ran's face was pale as he rested his sword on the ground, looking expressionless at them.

"Qin Ran?" Jian Yuanjie couldn't believe it. "How could you possibly be alive?!"
