The black-clad woman emerged from the other courtyard, while Lin Feng was leisurely drinking and chatting with Luo Jingtian by the pond in a pavilion.

She walked out of the imposing gate, and at this moment, the black-clad woman stood by the door and glanced around a few times. Not seeing Lin Feng nearby, she went to find him and happened to see the two in the pavilion, so she walked towards them.

The black-clad woman said to Lin Feng, "Why, you’ve lost all your cultivation, yet still come here to drink."

Upon hearing the black-clad woman’s words, Luo Jingtian turned his head to look at her.

"Feng Ling, why do you immediately show concern for this lad? Haven’t seen your brother Jingtian for so long, not even a greeting..."

The man spoke teasingly, especially forthright.

The black-clad woman lowered her head, muttering to Luo Jingtian, "Still the same old, you only tease whenever you see me."

"Hahaha," Luo Jingtian laughed heartily upon hearing this.

After laughing, Luo Jingtian looked at Lin Feng and said to the two of them, "I see this lad’s meridians don’t have any issues; given a little time, he will surely recover his cultivation."

"Cultivation or not really isn’t that important; being an ordinary person actually has its perks," Lin Feng said calmly, looking into the distance.

At this moment, Luo Jingtian’s brows furrowed tightly, looking at Lin Feng’s profile as if moved by Lin Feng’s unintentional words.

"Alright, the Sect Leader asked me to tell you to rest in the front courtyard for a few days. When he has time, he’ll come to check on your situation. Rest assured, the Sect Leader will definitely help you restore your cultivation," the black-clad woman cheerfully said to Lin Feng, though Luo Jingtian could see an aura of worry on her face.

Luo Jingtian couldn’t help but show a faint smile, seemingly because he had discerned something.

"I say, let’s arrange a room for him first. Let the lad stay next to me." Lin Feng nodded in agreement.

Lin Feng followed Luo Jingtian to the room, where Luo Jingtian said to Lin Feng, "Alright, this is your room. I’m right next door, just let me know if anything comes up."

"Okay," Lin Feng responded with a smile.

After speaking, Luo Jingtian walked out of the room, leaving Lin Feng alone inside.

Lin Feng smiled calmly and began to leisurely appreciate the room.

The room was refreshingly sophisticated, embodying the realm conducive for those who cultivate. A bamboo desk was neatly placed before a half-opened window, with potted plants outside, very pleasing to the eye. As Lin Feng glanced around, he noticed that these potted plants were not only meticulous, but the plants themselves were top-grade spiritual trees, beneficial for spiritual rejuvenation when grown by the window.

Lin Feng surveyed the room further, noting a large wooden bed made of pear wood, simple yet elegant, with impeccable craftsmanship. The plain sheets on top were indeed woven from the fur of thousand-year cold snow sheep, extremely comfortable and aiding in better blood circulation for the user.

After inspecting the bed, his attention shifted to the rest of the room. A hollow-carved decorative screen naturally partitioned the space, dividing the room’s usage neatly. A desk with an inkstone, and brushes orderly placed on the holder, evoking a sense of pride and wisdom.

The wall painting was extremely meticulous; overall, everything here pursued not extravagance but a sense of utmost perfection.

Lin Feng went to the bed, removed his shoes, and sat down.

Then Lin Feng began to meditate, trying to regulate the chaotic aura within himself.

At this moment, Lin Feng started to practice the lowest level of mental method he had learned, starting with the basics from the Star-Gazing Pavilion.

"Heavenly Character Technique. Basic Heart Method, First Layer." Lin Feng began to operate his breath according to the basic Cultivation Technique he held in his Sea of Consciousness. With the operation of this basic cultivation method within Lin Feng’s body, he felt a gentle spring flowing through his meridians.

This basic cultivation method is specially designed for new disciples to lay a foundation through practice.

After circulating the technique, a faint spiritual power began to flow throughout his body. Lin Feng felt a touch of spiritual energy rising within him, which gently activated his First Spirit Knot. Sensing the spiritual power surging, his First Spirit Knot emitted a pale blue light, and Lin Feng, through introspection, felt the weak energy emanating from this pale blue light. Yet, this trace of energy, upon contacting the Spirit Knot, was quickly absorbed, much like clear water seeping into soil, leaving no trace.

Despite trying several times without success, Lin Feng did not feel discouraged. He continued controlling his breath repeatedly, trying to communicate with his Spirit Knot time and again, till the time passed rapidly and soon enough, the sky over Falling Star Cliff dimmed.

Ling Feng didn’t know how long he practiced breath control until he fell asleep, for now, Lin Feng was an ordinary man, and thus felt tired as night descended.

When Lin Feng awoke from sleep, he had already slept for half the night. Faint light was casting through the window, illuminating Lin Feng’s face.
