My carefree life in space

Chapter 22 Cultivation Together

After breakfast, Ji Feng and the others tidied up the table. Everyone sat down to discuss the upcoming itinerary.

Since they found the Frost Grass yesterday, it means that Mo Chen and his team have completed their mission.

Should they continue their training, or end it here and return to the academy? Mo Ze wanted to hear their opinions. After all, he and Shu Shu were going to stay in the forest.

Mo Chen and the others exchanged glances, understood each other's meaning, and unanimously decided to stay.

“You can stay, but if you want to train, you have to go deeper into the world. If you encounter beasts of a higher level than you, we will not help you unless it is a matter of life and death. You should think it over carefully,” Mo Ze emphasized.

The group nodded solemnly in agreement.

After yesterday's battle against the level-five alien beast, they understood the importance of strength even more and longed for Mo Ze's ability to kill a level-five alien beast in one move.

Having made the decision, the group packed their tents, tables, chairs, and other belongings, randomly chose a direction, and resolutely set off.

This time, Mo Ze and Lin Shushu walked at the very back, as if they were on a leisurely stroll, their steps incredibly light, and they would occasionally exchange deep glances, completely ignoring the four people fighting the alien beasts ahead of them.

Of course, the two wouldn't disregard their lives. Before the group of four even discovered the beast, the two had already sensed its level and strength through their divine sense or spiritual power. Only after confirming that the four could handle it would they be allowed to act freely.

Right now, the four of them are fighting a level-four beast in front of them. The two sides are exchanging blows, and the battle is in full swing, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.

Behind them, Lin Shushu and Mo Ze sat under a tree. Lin Shushu was explaining the cultivation system she had learned to Mo Ze, who listened attentively and also spared a bit of his mental energy to watch the battle ahead.

Although Mo Chen was already a level four physical warrior and a level three mental warrior, together with the other three members of his team, they were unable to defeat this level four beast in a short time.

Although both sides have a maximum level of four, the combat power of a level four beast is not equivalent to that of a level four human.

The beasts have a natural advantage; their powerful appearance is unmatched by humans, and even with firearms, it is difficult to break through their defenses.

Fortunately, the four had been a team for a long time and had a high level of teamwork. With their cooperation, they fought hard for half a day and finally defeated the level four beast. However, they were exhausted and lay down on the spot, too weak to even lift their hands.

"You've managed to handle just a level four beast so poorly; it seems you really need a good beating."

A merciless taunt came from above, and the four people lying on the ground turned red in the face.

Mo Chen wanted to say, do you think everyone is as twisted as you? They've already given it their all, okay?

But he didn't dare, and could only smile ingratiatingly and say, "Brother, we know our shortcomings, and we will definitely improve next time."

Mo Ze remained noncommittal, left them some pills, and walked straight back to Lin Shushu's side.

This scene had happened many times over the past few days, and Mo Chen had gotten used to his brother's sharp tongue.

Mo Chen distributed the pills to his teammates, and after everyone recovered, the group gathered together to summarize the day's battle.

Although Mo Ze's words were harsh, they were true. They had realized their shortcomings. They had spent most of their time in the academy and lacked rigorous training, which resulted in low combat strength. They needed to work harder in the future.

Ignoring the four's reflections, Mo Ze returned to Lin Shushu's side and continued to learn the martial arts from her.

That's right, this was Mo Ze's own request. He had also read the books in the space, but since their relationship wasn't established before, he didn't want to interfere too much.

But now the situation is different. The two have established a relationship, and he wants to spend his life with Shushu.

As far as he knew, cultivators had very long lifespans, and as their strength increased, they could even live as long as heaven and earth, something he had never imagined before.

Although the lifespan of interstellar humans can reach 300 years, it is nothing compared to Shushu. The thought that he would die before Shushu makes him feel very sad. What he wants is for the two of them to be together for a long time.

Thus, the idea of ​​learning cultivation techniques arose.

Of course, now that he is in the Sunset Forest and Mo Chen and the other three are with him, he cannot actually cultivate, so he can only learn basic techniques and understand the cultivation system first.

To truly begin cultivation, one must wait until the two are alone in a private space.

Lin Shushu explained in great detail, and Mo Ze listened attentively. After a few days, Mo Ze had gained an understanding of the entire cultivation system.

However, there is still one crucial point: it's unclear whether Mo Ze possesses a spiritual root. If he does, that would be the easiest thing to do; if not, it would be troublesome. Although spiritual roots can be cultivated, Lin Shushu currently lacks the ability to do so.

With that in mind, Lin Shushu decided that when she set up camp tonight, she would take Mo Ze back to her space to test his spiritual root.

Lin Shushu thought, hoping for a good outcome.

The path of cultivation transcends time. If one had someone by their side, they probably wouldn't feel so lonely.

Don't say that cultivation requires severing all emotions and love. If even love and affection must be abandoned, then what's the point of pursuing immortality? Is abandoning everything to pursue the Great Dao just to possess eternal solitude?

Lin Shushu didn't want to spend her life alone with eternity. Although she might not be able to reach that point, if given a choice, who could refuse immortality?

Now that Mo Ze is by my side, and since he has the intention to cultivate, I might as well try to travel with him. It should be more meaningful in the future.

Although it may seem premature to consider these things, and we have only just started dating, and there may be other changes in the future, just like I thought that night, since I have made the decision, I will not regret it.

Firstly, it stemmed from trust in Mo Ze. He knew perfectly well how Mo Ze treated him.

Secondly, it stems from his own confidence. In the interstellar world today, the only thing one can rely on for cultivation is one's own space. And the control of that space is in one's own hands. If one really misjudges someone, one naturally has a way to deal with it.

As for matters of the heart, if things really go in opposite directions, it's not a big deal. In modern society, there are many breakups and makeups, and no one is indispensable.

Having figured everything out, Lin Shushu smiled with relief.

When Mo Ze saw her smile, he grinned foolishly along with her. Little did he know that Lin Shushu had already thought about their future and even considered how to handle their relationship if they eventually separated.

"Here we go again. These two have been inseparable ever since that morning. It's so enviable and makes me jealous."

Mo Chen and the others had fully recovered. When they got closer, they found the two of them were once again sticky and inseparable, and they couldn't help but complain in their hearts.

Of course, they would never dare to show it.
