I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot - Chapter 93: Finally My Time to Shine

Chapter 93: Finally My Time to Shine

‘The expert said I’m a cultivator and chess was just his hobby.

‘I’m a cultivator...’

The Chess Fanatic was hysterical, grinning like a Chesire cat.

“I got it! I finally got it!”

His hair was flowing in the air and he looked a bit crazy.

Lin Mufeng hurriedly asked, “Chess Fanatic, what is it? Did the expert give you any hints?”

“Not hints! Advice! The expert was trying to advise me!”

The Chess Fanatic was frantic. “He said I’m a cultivator and chess was just his hobby, so he can’t take me in as his student. The key point of this sentence is that I’m a cultivator! I’m a cultivator on the cultivating journey. How could I learn chess wholeheartedly while cultivating? I don’t deserve it!”

“Chess, in itself, takes full focus and determination. I’m doing three things at once. No wonder the expert won’t take me in as a student!”

The Chess Fanatic was getting increasingly emotional. He started to tear up. “The expert also talked about the story. The main character is an ordinary man. I see it now... All along I’ve been on the wrong journey. Haha, I finally got it. I finally understood what went wrong!”

Lin Mufeng looked at the Ches Fanatic and asked, “Chess Fanatic, what are you going to do?”

“I’m going to quit my cultivating journey. From now on, I’m focusing on chess!”

The Chess Fanatic looked determined. He looked like he had made up his mind. “I’m going to a quiet hideaway. Don’t look for me. Farewell!”

He left as soon as he finished his sentence.

Lin Mufeng and Sun Qianshan watched the Chess Fanatic leave. They were dumbfounded.

“Old Man Lin, did he just say he’s going to quit being a cultivator?”

“I think so.”

“Did he really... get it? He’s quitting?”

...

At the four-part architecture.

Li Nianfan watched the three cultivators walk out. He smiled and shook his head.

Thankfully, they did not stay. He had been a bit poor recently. He did not have any wildlife or meat. If they stayed, he could only serve them fruits and vegetables. It would not be classy enough.

Sigh, how pathetic it was not being able to go hunting.

Li Nianfan sighed and looked at his latest refrigerator. He was immediately in a better mood.

He would be able to have more delicacies from now on.

These cultivators were so polite. They always came to visit him with gifts.

He walked in front of the refrigerator and felt refreshed. It was like standing in an air-conditioned room.

“This is the best.” Li Nianfan grabbed a stool and enjoyed the cool air.

He said, “Daji, I’ll make you an ice pop in a short while. You’re in for a treat.”

“Ice pop? What’s that?” Daji was confused. She thought it might be an ice-type weapon.

Li Nianfan explained, “It’s a delicacy! It’s long, hard, cool, and cold. There are all kinds of flavors and it’s lickable. You’ll like it for sure!”

“Wow.” Daji licked her lips. She looked excited. “What does it look like?”

Ice pops must be awesome if the expert described it like that!

“There are all sorts of shapes,” said Li Nianfan. He smiled and continued, “But you’ll have to wait. I’m going to make a lantern first.”

“What do you need a lantern for?” asked Daji.

Li Nianfan had a small carving knife in his hand and a stick in the other. He replied, “Yesterday, I noticed that there isn’t any light source on our way home. It was inconvenient so I figured I should make a lantern.”

“I see.” Daji nodded.

She had a lot of respect for her master. He could see clearly in the dark but was still considerate of others, and he was incredibly detail-orientated!

Li Nianfan closed his eyes. He came up with a brief lantern design in his mind after a while and started to craft a lantern.

He was crafty with his fingers. The carving knife moved fluidly without any troubles.

He did not hesitate because he was confident. He clearly knew what he was doing.

He could carve anything he wanted with his small carving knife. He gently picked at the material with his knife.

This small carving knife had been in his possession for the longest time. It was a small item but it was very useful and convenient.

He remembered that this item was awarded to him by the System after he achieved the max level in carving.

The System was trash. However, the gifts were truly handy.

Xiaobai, the Water Purifier, the Air Purifier, and this small carving knife had been in his possession for years. He had never faced any problems with them.

Li Nianfan used bamboo sticks to craft the body of the lantern.

The lantern was round. He did not want it to be very fancy. He just wanted it to be useful.

Li Nianfan used some willow from his backyard as a rope for the lantern.

The willow was flexible and not easily broken. It also looked better than a rope. It was his obvious choice of material.

Soon, the lantern frame was completed.

Li Nianfan set it aside and started making the outer part of the lantern.

The best materials for that were either cloth or paper because they were opaque and allowed light to shine through from within.

Li Nianfan chose red cloth because it was more durable than paper.

He customized the red cloth and placed it on the lantern frame. The lantern was almost complete. Now, he just needed to do the final step.

Li Nianfan took out the stationery he prepared. He held his writing brush and dipped it in yellowish ink. He glazed the tip of the brush and placed it on the red cloth.

In one wave of motion, he wrote a big ‘Fu’, which signified ‘Fortune’!

Li Nianfan smiled.

Done!

Daji stared at Li Nianfan the whole time like she was bewitched. She only snapped out of it when he was done with the lantern.

What...was that?

She thought his movements were graceful and beautiful—impeccable—like how God controlled the movements of the Earth. It was like...an illusion of merging Heaven and Earth. One could not help but stare and fall in love with it.

She could not describe this feeling but she knew she was shocked.

Li Nianfan examined the lantern and nodded satisfyingly. He mumbled, “The lantern is done, but I need a light source. Time to buy some candles.”

He needed a light source?

Daji jolted.

Her master would never use an ordinary candle, right? This must be a hint!

Daji was pumped. She thought to herself, ‘It’s finally my time to shine!’

She had to watch as waves of cultivators kept bringing him gifts and treasures. They all tried to impress Li Nianfan and she was worried because she needed to do that, too.

She kept coming up with ideas on how she could help her master, so now was her chance!

She glanced around with her pretty eyes and thought to herself, ‘What could be a light source?’

However... Before that, she had something more important to do!
