Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 694: Xiao Muen Awaken

Han Haerin asked, "Jeongsinui nuniragoyo? Geuge mwoyeyo, daemonim?"

Translation: [Spirit Eyes? What is that, Godmother?]

Yue Xuexia didn’t answer the child’s question right away and helped her take a seat on the bed where she checked on her eyes. Only when the Moon Goddess had seen it healing that she had sighed in relief. She actually didn’t expect that Han Haerin would actually awaken a special physique which is said to be very rare even in the immortal world. After all, not all cultivators can awaken Special Physique after marrow cleansing.

It seems that despite her ordinary talent in cultivation, she possessed a special eye that could aid her in her cultivation journey. Spirit eyes are a rare type of body mutation and no one knows how to awaken one. It can be transplanted to someone though. Now Yue Xuexia is worried that someone might become interested in her special eyes. If it’s an old cultivator that had gotten interested in it, her daughter, Han Haerin would be helpless. Now Yue Xuexia is even more determined to make the three stronger than she had planned.

Yue Xuexia said, "Yeongnuneun nuni byeonhyeongdoen sinche hyeongtaeui han jongryuimnida. Geu teukbyeolhan neungnyeogeun samureul kkwaettureoboneun geosieotda. Ne jubyeone mujigae geurimja gireul boasseul geoya. Igeoseun suryeoni i segyero doraon hu natanan cheonjigida. Nega dachigi jeone nae aneseo bon geoseun nae hyeoltonggwa juyo neungnyeogiya. Nae neungnyeogeun modu sinseonghan keullaeseuraseo nega geugeoseul deulyeodabwasseul ttae banbareul batatda. Yeonghonui nundo hunryeoni piryohamnida. Meonjeo kkeuneun beobeul gareuchyeo juneun ge deo naeul geoyeyo."

Translation: [Spirit Eyes is a kind of body physique in which your eyes have undergone mutations. The special ability of it was to see through things. You must have seen the rainbow shade qi around you. This is the heaven and earth qi that appeared after cultivation had returned to this realm. What you have seen in me before you got injured are my bloodline and main abilities. My abilities are all divine class so when you peered on it, you had received a backlash. Spirit eyes need to be trained as well. It would be better to teach you how to turn it off first.]

The Moon Goddess started explaining to Han Haerin what kind of physique she had awakened and how it can be controlled so it wouldn’t be active all the time. After all, even these special eyes can drain one’s eyes upon use.

Yue Xuexia said, "I teukbyeolhan nuneul bihwalseonghwaharyeomyeon siljelo nuneul gamneun geosi anira maeumsogeuro nuneul gamneun geoseul sangsanghaeya hamnida. Nun anui eotteon geosi dathyeoya hamnida. Hwalseonghwaharyeomyeon geu bandaero sangsanghamyeon doemnida. Maeumsokeseo mueosingareul yeoneun geoseul saenggakhaeya hamnida. Nuneul sayonghal ttaemada giga somodoemuro nuneul jal jojeolhaeya hamnida. Sayonghal ttae josimhaseyo. Meonjeo bihwalseonghwahae bogo daemoga dangsinui nuneul hwakinhalsu itdorok haeboneun ge eotteolkkayo."

Translation: [To deactivate these special eyes, you need to imagine closing your eyes in your mind but not in reality something within your eyes needs to be closed. To activate it, you will imagine the opposite. You need to think of opening something within your mind. You need to control your eyes as every time you use it your qi will be depleted. Be careful when using it. How about you try deactivating it first so Godmother can check on your eyes.]

Han Haerin upon hearing the instructions of her godmother tried to do as she was taught. It was hard to do it at the first try. After all, eyes are a part of one’s body, to imagine it closing without doing so in reality is hard to control. It took hours before Han Haerin had successfully deactivated her spirit eyes.

Han Haerin said, "Daemonim! Haenaesseoyo!"

Translation: [Godmother! I did it!]

Thud!

Han Haerin who was overtaxing her own qi reserves finally fainted from overfatigue. Yue Xuexia had supported her. After using a cleansing spell on the young lady to clear her sweats, the Moon Goddess placed her back to the bed. Upon sensing that the Spirit Eyes had been deactivated, Yue Xuexia healed her goddaughter’s eyes and gently wiped the blood on her cheeks and near her eyes.

Yue Xuexia said, "Sleep well, little one."

—

The next day when Han Haerin woke up, she started training her control over her Spirit eyes while learning breathing and footwork techniques. These things were enough to make her feel busy. As for Xiao Muen and Ru Yunlan, they two were still at the spring with the effects of the medicinal concoction getting thinner as days passed. On the fifth day, Xiao Muen finally opened his eyes.

Xiao Muen looked at his hands and realized that his qi had gotten purer and thicker. There is also a refreshing feeling all over his body and an unknown strength that appeared in him. He jumps out of the spring avoiding to affect his nephew who still has not completed his body refinement. At the shore, Xiao Muen checked his body next, ignoring the smell all over his body. He felt that his bones had turned as hard as steel and even his muscles were firmer than before as they became more chiselled.

Yue Xuexia appears when Xiao Muen is amazed by the changes on his body. However, the scent around him made her sick as she needed to pinch her nose to survive.

She said, "Like what you see?"

Seeing Xiao Muen nod his face with a delightful smile, Yue Xuexia’s face turned dark and kicked him away.

"Get your ass to bath! You smell so bad!"

"Can’t you just mention it without kicking me!" Complained Xiao Muen but he was already flying towards the clear river at the next door area.

Yue Xuexia waves his hands to remove the lingering scent and turns to look at Ru Yunlan who still hasn’t woken up from his meditation. She was worried that something had happened to the little guy but was stopped by her system.

[Xue’er, stop! That little one is alright. He seems to be awakening some kind of bloodline in him.]

"That’s impossible! Both of his parents are pure mortals." Yue Xuexia said.

[Then it must be a mutation. With your blessing anything on this planet can mutate. Isn’t that little girl from before also has mortal parents but she still awakened Spirit Eyes.]

"How about Xiao Muen? Can he also awaken one?" Yue Xuexia asked.

[He is too old already and his potential had been overused when he ate that pill. All you can do is enhance his body or maybe change his spirit roots to be purer than his current five elemental roots. You still have those legacies you got when you signed in, into that dungeon before. You can give it to them. The minor gods’ legacies only.]

"The basic elements of God’s legacies? How should I know if they are compatible with it? I also need to save some for the people in the Hidden Tan Clan. Especially Elder Tan Huangyu." Yue Xuexia said.

[That old man is suitable for fire and earth related legacies which you currently do not have. You can find one for him when you ascend. As for that Xiao, he is suitable with the Wind God’s legacy. The little girl is a bit suitable to become a Nature goddess. But she might become a flower goddess instead of being one with nature. As for this little guy, we can only know what is suitable with him once he wakes up. However, they must reach at least Peak Nascent Soul (Yuanying) Realm or Huashen realm to receive it.]

Yue Xuexia said, "Once they’ve learned at least a quarter of the techniques I’ve given them, I plan to bring them inside the ruins for stricter training."

[How would you sneak them in? The minimum requirement is Yuanying realm at least.]

"Can’t I just put them in my small world first and when I get inside let them come out?" Yue Xuexia asked.

[...!?...]

The system questioned itself of such a loophole. He might allow it if Yue Xuexia was the only one who plans to break the rule of that ruins but others cannot.

’[It seems I must reinforce the rules of that ruins again.]’ The thought of the system who was working hard to keep this world in balance.

Xiao Muen after cleaning himself at the river, joined Han Haerin to the training hall. He found a corner to start reading the techniques given to him by the Goddess of the Moon. He also started to focus on learning his breathing technique first and just one meditation was enough for him to notice the huge changes of his body after the cleansing of marrows.

He noticed that the absorption of qi was smoother than before and his body can accumulate more of it compared to how he did in the past. Feeling the huge changes in himself, his comprehension is much faster and clearer, making his learning of new techniques much easier which Xiao Muen didn’t expect.

Ten days later, Ru Yunlan finally woke up and completed his cleansing. However, when he woke up, a huge change in the area had happened. At the peak of the mountain, where the mansion was located, a sudden darkness started to gather around Ru Yunlan. The sudden accumulation of the darkness centered at the young man who had completed his refinement. Like the system had mentioned before, Ru Yunlan had truly awakened a special bloodline in him which involves this darkness or whatever this black thing is.
