Entering The Immortal Family, The Wife Is Actually The Reincarnation Of The Empress
Chapter 3 Work At The Ling Mine
In the following days, the two of them continued to live as usual.
Su Jue got his wish and moved to the place he was supposed to live.
Of course, this was Chen Xinyan's wish. Su Jue lived in the firewood room.
But this was also a good thing for Su Jue. If he lived with Chen Xinyan every day, it would not be convenient for him to hide his strength.
For disciples of the family, there were only three things to do every day.
Cultivate, study, and complete tasks.
Even Su Jue was no exception.
Although he was now the husband of the main daughter of the Chen Family, Chen Xinyan, unfortunately, did not possess immortal roots. Coupled with her irritable temper, her status in the Chen Family was not very high. She belonged to the kind of person that no one really cared about.
Su Jue was originally just a burden son-in-law, so naturally, he couldn't become a young master in the Chen Family. He had just become familiar with the Chen Family and had to start working.
If he wanted to obtain cultivation resources, he had to complete some family tasks.
Su Jue traveled on foot from the Su Family to the Chen Family in order to avoid exposing his identity. During the three-month journey, he encountered many dangers of various sizes and also obtained many rewards through the system.
He had top-notch cultivation resources, but he didn't have a good cultivation method.
A good cultivation method required four things, and he didn't have any of them.
In the Chen Family, besides the Apex Level Divine Child, if one wanted to obtain a good cultivation method, they could only do so by completing family tasks.
Su Jue originally wanted to work in the Hundred Herb Garden of the Chen Family with Chen Xinyan, but after he arrived, he discovered that the Hundred Herb Garden only accepted female disciples and not male disciples.
Upon Chen Xinyan's suggestion, Su Jue finally came to the Spirit Mine of the Chen Family.
The Spirit Mine was a major industry of the Chen Family.
The Chen Family had a huge spiritual vein called the Jade Eternal Spiritual Vein in the Yuheng Mountain Range.
This was one of the largest spiritual veins in the lower realm of the Profound Immortal Continent and an important reason why the Chen Family became an Apex Level immortal family in the lower realm.
However, this spiritual vein was jointly operated by the Chen Family and the Zhao Family.
Compared to other family tasks, working in the Spirit Mine was considered more laborious and required more effort.
"Hey, are you new here? Which family are you from? I'll take care of you in the future." Su Jue was stopped by a disciple as soon as he arrived.
"I'm Chen Chuan, you can call me Brother Chuan from now on." Chen Chuan had no sense of boundaries.
Su Jue didn't mind, as he was not familiar with the place anyway. It was a good thing to have someone introduce and guide him.
"I'm Su Jue." Su Jue spoke up.
"Su Jue?" Chen Chuan paused for a moment, feeling that the name sounded familiar, but couldn't quite remember.
"You must be a disciple who came here through the marriage alliance with the Chen Family. You must not be familiar with the Chen Family."
"In the future, I'll look out for you here." Chen Chuan continued.
"You'll look out for me? Okay." Su Jue found it somewhat amusing, but didn't say much. Instead, he followed Chen Chuan to the Spirit Mine.
The Jade Eternal Spiritual Vein was very large, and the Chen Family only owned a part of it. The Spirit Mine was located at the foot of the spiritual vein.
The task in the Spirit Mine was simple: to mine the ore and transport the spiritual stones from the mountain to the foot of the mountain.
Su Jue's task was to transport the packed spiritual stones to the foot of the mountain. It sounded simple, but because of the steep and treacherous mountain roads, only cultivators could complete this task.
"This is the easiest task in the Spirit Mine, but there are some dangerous places along the way. Follow me closely." Chen Chuan explained as he led Su Jue to start working.
Along the way, Su Jue saw many disciples of the Chen Family, all of whom wore the identity jade pendants of the Chen Family around their waists.
"Hurry up and grab the things, let's go." Chen Chuan called out, and Su Jue didn't waste any words. He picked up the bamboo basket filled with spiritual stones and followed Chen Chuan down the mountain.
Because the storage space in general disciples' storage rings was too small, these spiritual stones had to be carried in bamboo baskets down the mountain.
The method was somewhat primitive, but it was still relatively easy for cultivators. A round trip would take about two hours.
"The path ahead is the most dangerous plank road here. You need to use your skills to cross it," Chen Chuan reminded.
"By the way, what is your current strength?"
"Mid-stage Qi Refining," Su Jue replied.
In order to conceal his identity, Su Jue had always claimed to have the strength of mid-stage Qi Refining. This realm had a similar cultivation speed to disciples without immortal roots.
"Early-stage Qi Refining? Then you don't have immortal roots?" Chen Chuan was somewhat puzzled.
"Yes," Su Jue casually replied.
"Then how did you manage to marry into the Chen Family?" Chen Chuan felt somewhat strange.
The Chen Family, although not the top family in the Profound Immortal Continent, was still considered a prominent immortal family. According to reason, they would not form a marriage alliance with a disciple without immortal roots.
"There's no way, I'm just too handsome and caught someone's eye," Su Jue half-jokingly said.
"Caught someone's eye?"
"I don't remember any girl from the Chen Family having an eye disease..."
"What did you say?" Su Jue really wanted to kick Chen Chuan off the cliff.
"Never mind... Let's hurry up and go." Chen Chuan coughed twice and quickly led Su Jue across the plank road.
The plank road in front of them was the steepest part of the entire journey, with cliffs on both sides and a narrow and steep path in the middle. Without using their skills, it would be difficult for ordinary people to walk steadily, let alone carrying two baskets of spirit stones on their shoulders.
Walking one after the other, Su Jue could tell that Chen Chuan had the strength of late-stage Qi Refining, probably with a low-grade immortal root. With a low-grade immortal root, he could develop well in the future and secure a decent position in the family.
Chen Chuan walked in front, looking very nervous and serious.
Both sides of the path were bottomless cliffs. A slight misstep would lead to irreversible consequences.
If they reached the Nascent Soul stage, they could fly with their spiritual energy and walk on this cliff as if it were level ground.
However, those in the Nascent Soul stage could already become elders in the Chen Family, so there was no need for them to exert themselves here.
On the other hand, Su Jue was relaxed. Although he hadn't reached the Nascent Soul stage, his strength was much higher than Chen Chuan's. With the help of his skills, his steps were as steady as Mount Tai.
Just as they stepped onto the plank road, a system notification suddenly sounded in Su Jue's mind.
[Host triggered a level one crisis!]
"Oh?" Su Jue didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain.
"Phew."
They walked to the other end of the plank road in one breath, and Chen Chuan let out a sigh of relief.
His forehead was covered in fine sweat, showing the exhaustion of the journey.
Su Jue, on the other hand, was completely fine. Not only that, but he also had a surprised smile on his face.
[You safely crossed the steep plank road and turned danger into safety.]
[Danger level: Level one]
[Reward obtained: Yellow Heaven Soil]
"To think there would be unexpected gains!"
This surprised Su Jue.
If he could get a reward like this every time he mined, it would be quite comfortable.
"What is this Yellow Heaven Soil?" Su Jue glanced at the system space and saw a small handful of soil among the various items.
Although this companion system was always generous and gave weighty rewards, Su Jue had no idea about their uses. He had eaten some of the precious materials directly, but the rest of the items with unknown uses were piled up in the system space.
"Let's go," Chen Chuan reminded, and Su Jue snapped back to reality.
