Before dawn the next day, Shen Hao got out of bed. These days, he slept less and less; three hours at most was enough, unlike before when he could still laze around in a daze. Now, as soon as he woke, he just couldn't fall back asleep.
Opening the door, he saw Xia Nu was up even earlier, carrying a bucket of hot water out from the kitchen.
"Ah! Master, you're up so early today? I've prepared hot water, please wash up first."
After getting himself together and having breakfast, Shen Hao headed to the backyard, ready to officially begin cultivating the Earth Escape Skill today. Xia Nu, meanwhile, happily left the house carrying a box on her back.
He flipped open the Great Five Elements True Qi Talisman, skipping straight past the Qi Refining Chapter at the front and turning to the relatively pristine "Gathering Spirit Chapter," where the "Great Five Elements Skills" took up most of the content.
