The Female Cultivator In The World of Men

"She wants me to cut this thing for her, doesn't she?" Le Fangling placed her hands on her waist and curled up her lips in a mug smile looking at the willows tree.

<Yes Host! Although I believe this is a test for the host!>

The system popped out again and this time instead of speaking inside her head, the sound came from outside where the blue tab was.

"So, you can leave my consciousness and stay independently?" Le Fangling asked with a doubt.

<No host, I am only transferring the location of output of my sound.>

"I see..So you are still bound to my soul…." Le Fangling nodded her head as she realized another thing about the system.

<More or Less, Yes!>

<So, What are you going to do about the task?>

The system wanted to hear the decision of host and analyze whether it was the best option or not.

"Like you said, It is a test. Elder Lin is trying to test something with in me." Le Fangling nodded her head when she heard what the system had to say.

<What makes you this sure about this?>

"Remember about my body's special condition that can absorb qi continuously ."Le Fangling pointed at herself with a proud look.

"I am sure Elder Lin must have found something wrong with it. With her status as an Elder, I am sure she must have figured out the problem with the meridians and also about me absorbing her energy."

<That makes sense.> The system showed its agreement.

"Probably yes, but it's just my speculation." She smiled brightly nodding her head.

<So, Tell me what are you going to do about this so called test?> the system wanted to know the action of the host.

Le Fangling heard the system ask question and was briefly silent for a while before she started speaking again.

"You know when I was back in earth, I grew up in an orphanage…There was an old nanny...she used to tell us story fairy tales."

Le Fangling thought about her life back in earth which, as she stood in this unknown land, felt much more like dream than the life she currently had.

In a blink of an eye, many things happened and it was not even past a day for her in this in renewed life.

"She told us about nature being the greatest source of power for all of these mythical creatures." Le Fangling had a slight bitter look in her eyes but they dimmed away quickly.

"Long story short, I am pretty sure this tree is much more than it looks."

<Yes Host! >

<And also You were a poor guy with a hole in his wallet before you died.>

<And also you died with a hole in your head.>

The last statement was indicating how he had died.

"You..."

"..."

Sometimes, Le Fangling really thought there was something wrong with the system when it tried to make daddy jokes with her in its loli voice.

"Sigh….Let me continue…I remember her saying about the divine power in the nature and guess what.." Le Fangling approached the willow tree.

Parting the long curtains of leaf made by the willows, she entered inside and reached the center of the tree.

The tree had a slender trunk that was tied around by brown rope twice with various charms and seals attached to it. Looking at the tree, her doubt was even further confirmed.

"And when I look at this tree, I see its different from the rest in the forest here and looks livelier than others." Le Fangling placed her palm at a distance of 5 cm from the bark of the tree.

"Do you know what that means?" Le Fangling asked the system while her hand continued to approach the tree.

<This tree is one of the oldest tree in the whole of this continent.>

"Which means it has a lot of spiritual energy stored inside it from who knows when." Le Fangling stated with a meaningful look on her face.

<Host, you aren't thinking to…> The system had an ominous foreboding on what its host was about to do.

"I am exactly thinking that but let's see this at first…. she wants me to cut the tree but also leave it alive and all she gave me was an old axe which seemed to have some hidden strength…hmmmm…" Le Fangling thought for a while before speaking.

"But then currently at my level, forget about cutting this century old tree, I won't even be able to put a dent on it even if I used all of my strength."

Le Fangling clenched her fingers in a tight fist and mustered all the energy she could before she punched the trunk of the tree.

"#$%@&*#", Le Fangling cursed in words that were censored for a certain reason…ahemm…

"This hurts…" She overestimated herself just because she was had a little upgraded body with a little increased stats above average.

'Newton did not lie when he said to every action there is equal but opposite reaction.' Le Fangling blew on her fist and soon the pain completely subsided but her breath was not the reason, was it?

[The old divine tree VS Le Fangling]

[Result- Le Fangling was KOed!!]

"....", She thought the system had a potential as a game commentator.

<Of course it will hurt.> The system pretended not to have noticed her speechlessness.

And it also wanted to face palm at what its host did right now.

<Currently, both you and I are weak and powerless.> The system produced a sad mechanical sound.

"So even my current stat of having strength increased by +3 can't do anything...…sigh…" Le Fangling sighed in depression.

"I have a lot to do about this before…oh my god…" Le Fangling was startled when there was sudden the sound of notification.

<You have absorbed spiritual energy!>

<Your spiritual energy has increased by +20>

<Your spiritual energy has increased by +10>

"…..", But…. I just barely touched it.

Le Fangling looked at how the concentration in her body increased all of sudden and could only sigh but she could feel a slight heat on the place located between her stomach and chest.

She once again felt the familiar feeling she felt back in the pond.

Currently, she was like a walking time bomb…nah..make it a nuclear bomb that could explode any moment. It would have been okay if there was no problem with her meridians but …..

At this moment, she really hated those who made her body like this; almost a crippled body.

"I will make sure that fatso pays for what he did." Le Fangling gritted her teeth.

<Do what you want…But for now retreat back to a safe distance for now.> The system hurried to spoke and urged Le Fangling to leave the place.

"I understand.." Le Fangling sighed and walked outside from there. Although it was a loss, she had found an important resources for her to assist in her cultivation once she gets her meridians fixed.

'My future looks bright…kekeek..' Le Fangling had some what weird smile on her face as she retreated from the place she was at.
