Chapter 54: My Journal (Part 1)

[Title: Chronicles of Cultivation] [Year of the Ox, Third day of April] I sealed the entrance just as it was, setting up protective formations. I chose a place sheltered from the wind near the mountain to build a bamboo house. One side faces a bamboo forest, the other faces wild grass. The Grass and Wood Technique in the third layer is quite effective for weeding. I fed Grass and Wood Essence Pearls to the Ice Armored Beetle King, accumulating grass ash. Once the bamboo house is built, it can be used for cultivating spiritual fields and fertilizing. This place is not suitable for growing spiritual rice, but I can try spiritual wheat. Grandfather's storage bag still has many seeds. In addition to Qi-refining pills, I also bought spiritual rice, spiritual vegetables, and dried demonic beast meat. It's a bit economical, enough to last for a year. I cannot be complacent; I cannot be lazy. I must maintain a sense of crisis. My daily cultivation schedule is as follows: - Midnight and

"Little Green, slowly pass through here and let me see how deep the rat hole is." A green lantern flew out from her spiritual consciousness, illuminating a large area with a faint green light. Little Green was a ghost lantern that could pass through walls. Following Jiang Yuebai's instructions, it slowly passed through the rat hole. "A bit deep, but there should be a large space behind. It could be another mine tunnel. No, with the wind, it should lead outside, but this is underground." Jiang Yuebai pondered carefully and murmured to herself, "The position of the Yinshan Mine is originally high, and the ancient Thunder Abyss is a deep abyss..." Jiang Yuebai decided to dig it open. She didn't rush to start but patiently stayed in the mine tunnel for a few days, meditating and studying the "Mad Thunder Body Refining Technique." This body-refining technique combined mental cultivation with martial arts. After each cycle of energy circulation

Pa! The severed arm landed at Jiang Yuebai's feet, splattering her with blood, causing her to tremble and take a step back. Ye Lianyi laughed, "This is the consequence of messing with my stuff!" "Peng Laosan, what's going on with this little girl?" Fan Mazizi asked. Peng Sanyang nodded and explained with a bow, "She's a disciple favored by the real person of the golden core in the sect. She got involved in some trouble, got punished, and will be taken away in two years. The Foundation Building supervisor from the Internal Affairs Hall personally brought her here. Cui supervisor also said for you..." Peng Sanyang didn't dare to say the rest of the words, and Fan Mazizi sneered. Ye Lianyi walked up to Jiang Yuebai, grabbed her chin, and lifted her face. "Not bad, quite an impressive background. Cultivating to the fourth level at such a young age, an inner disciple?" Jiang Yuebai, trying to appear afraid, said, "Senior sister, I

Cui Sheng nodded, "That's right. If you don't come out for five years, whether you're dead or alive, once you come out, the array will strike you dead. So, junior sister, don't stay in the mine for too long. Even if Master Xuan Cheng intervenes, it will be useless when the array erases you." Cui Sheng then took Jiang Yuebai to familiarize her with the dining and resting areas, gave her two mining picks, and provided her with tindersticks and ten small light talismans. Finally, Cui Sheng led Hong Tao and Jiang Yuebai to a specific mine entrance. "Junior sister, you've been through a lot today. Shouldn't you take a day to rest and have something to eat before going down to the mine?" Jiang Yuebai shook her head, "Thanks for your concern, Manager Cui. I find mining quite intriguing, and I want to go down and take a look." Cui Sheng chuckled at the childishness in his heart and didn't stop her. "The Jia Chou No. 1 mine is curre

Chapter 52: Yinshan Mine (Part 1)

In the western border of the Central Plains, there was the Yinshan Mine. Thunder rumbled, and lightning flashed, creating a gloomy atmosphere. Bone-chilling cold winds stirred up sandstorms, violently battering the enchantment covering the Yinshan. The vast Yinshan stretched for thousands of miles, with dragon-like lightning crossing the sky, and sparse vegetation on the mountains. Hong Tao, with Jiang Yuebai, entered the minefield after changing their tokens. The fierce wind suddenly subsided, leaving only a bone-chilling cold and the clattering of mining carts and the striking of iron pickaxes on rocks. Shaking off the yellow sand covering him, Hong Tao surveyed the laborers transporting stones outside the mine. Suddenly, he released a strong Foundation Building pressure and kicked one of the passing workers. "Someone from the Internal Affairs Hall is here. Let your overseer come out to see me!" Jiang Yuebai frowned. Hong Tao was usually kind and reasonable, and she had nev

Chapter 51: I Will Never Escape

"Menial Tasks Diciple Jiang Yuebai, the Internal Affairs Hall has issued an order. Starting today, you are assigned to serve Elder Lin Xiangtian in the Alchemy Hall. Hurry up and depart!" Outside the blue-bricked courtyard in Huaxi Valley, Jiang Yuebai stared blankly at the seal of the Law Enforcement Hall on the courtyard door. A flying sword carrying a message from the Internal Affairs Hall shot through the air, leaving behind a command. As dawn approached, Jiang Yuebai's eyes were swollen. She bowed her head, looking at two things in her hands. In her left hand, she held her Menial Tasks Diciple token. In her right hand, she held the wooden puppet given by Mo Baichun. After a while, her eyes determined, she clenched both hands and ran out madly. At the rear courtyard of the Internal Affairs Hall, Jiang Yuebai piled all her storage bags in front of Hong Tao, leaving only one containing Tao Fengnian's body and his ever-present smoking pipe. Jiang Yuebai kowtowed heav

Chapter 50: Far-reaching Plans (Part 2)

"No, I won't... won't let you die!" Jiang Yuebai cried out, "Grandpa, wait, I'll go find someone now." Tao Fengnian grabbed Jiang Yuebai and pulled her in front of him. "This matter is very important. Grandpa's hometown is in Qingzhou, Yunguo, in the town of Qingxi at the foot of Leyou Mountain. There is a Wugui Temple on the mountain, and it was there that Grandpa obtained the opportunity for cultivation. The 'Five Elements Returning to Reality Technique' was also found there." "At that time, Grandpa didn't have the ability to explore it thoroughly. When you bring Grandpa back to his hometown for burial, make good preparations and then go explore. Perhaps you can find the remaining part of the technique. The specific location is recorded in the jade slip. Don't forget!" Jiang Yuebai continued to shake her head, unwilling to accept reality. "I'll go with you, I can't do it without you..." Tao Feng
