Living in the world of cultivation

Su Fan and others waited for nearly an hour before arriving at the gate of Caicheng in Wulong Valley.

He sat cross-legged on the back of the strange beast, looked up at the tall city wall, and couldn't help curling his lips.

This work was done roughly, it was made of huge stones stacked up, even the city gate was the same, without even the most basic decoration.

Su Fan and Ya Kun got off the strange beast and entered the city gate. The first thing that caught their eyes was a wide street, more than a hundred feet wide, paved with stone slabs, and on both sides were rough stone houses.

Dense pedestrians and tall strange beasts were crowded on the street, and it was noisy everywhere, which was quite lively.

There were tall stone houses on both sides of the street, with extremely ancient and rough style, simple structure, and a sense of grandeur and luxury in simplicity.

The clothes of pedestrians on the street were similar to those in the village outside, but the style and color were more exquisite, and the fabrics of the clothes were better.

The two walked along the main street to the end of the valley, where there was a huge square.

There were many tall stone buildings around the square, and in the center stood a statue of a Mokui monk that was more than a hundred feet tall.

Su Fan looked at the statue in the center of the square, and his eyes could not help but condense.

This square and the statue should have some tricks. It seems that the Mokui tribe is not so confident about the human race in the territory, and has set up many means.

Su Fan followed Ya Kun to handle the identity registration in the gathering place, and the process was very fast.

But every human cultivator who newly joined the gathering place must leave a portion of blood in exchange for a black identity bone.

Fortunately, Su Fan had already solved the problem of identity and blood before entering the Demon Camel Mountain.

After completing the identity registration, Ya Kun led Su Fan around the gathering place, but there was actually nothing to see.

For the human cultivators who had just arrived at the gathering place, the various shops and wine shops on both sides of the street, as well as the huge stall market, would definitely make them linger.

But a city of this size had no attraction to Su Fan at all.

The two stayed in the gathering place of Wulong Valley for one night, and rushed back to Shiliang Village the next day.

Ya Kun was so excited about Su Fan's joining that he specially selected a slope with relatively abundant spiritual energy for Su Fan.

The scenery here is extremely beautiful, and the environment is also very quiet.

The relatively open and flat grassland at the foot of the mountain is the spiritual field that Su Fan will be responsible for cultivating in the future.

At least a dozen acres of spiritual fields can be opened up here, and various low-level spiritual herbs can be planted.

The human cultivators who have just joined the gathering place have a two-year reclamation period, and they will only submit offerings from the third year.

Although two years is not a short time, it is also a hard job for ordinary Qi training cultivators.

Spiritual herbs are not like ordinary crops. It is very troublesome to take care of them, and they also have to guard against various strange beasts in the mountains and forests.

Therefore, the human cultivators in the mountain village have to stay next to the spiritual fields to guard them almost every day.

But for Su Fan, the low-level spiritual herbs in these dozen acres of spiritual fields don't need him to take care of them at all.

He seized a large number of mechanical puppets from the Sulun Star Region, with all kinds of models. Not to mention a dozen acres of spiritual fields, even hundreds or thousands of acres would not be a problem for him.

As for the strange beasts in the surrounding mountains and forests, they have been listed as recipes on his table, and he occasionally gets a few to try.

He doesn't even need to do anything. As long as he releases some ghost soldiers and ghost generals, he can sweep away all the strange beasts in the mountains around the village.

The cave is even simpler. He doesn't want to be unconventional, and he also builds a simple bamboo house like other cultivators in the village.

There is a valley not far from the spiritual field, and Su Fan plans to build a bamboo house there.

This valley is very quiet, with beautiful mountains and rocks, waterfalls, and several old pines lying on the cliffs, adding a bit of steepness.

There is also a deep pool in the valley, with various spiritual flowers and plants next to it. The fragrance attracts many insects and birds, a scene of birdsong and flowers.

In the deep pool, several inches of small fish with brilliant crystal light swam around in groups, making the green water of the pool particularly gorgeous.

Su Fan stood on the grass, looking at the surrounding scenery, feeling extremely comfortable.

This is really a good place.

"This place is pretty good, the only disadvantage is that it is a bit remote and a bit far from the village..."

Nonsense, I won't do it if it's too close to the village.

"This place is really good, the village owner is worried..."

Hearing that Su Fan was quite satisfied with this place, Ya Kun was relieved.

"How about this, I'll find a few people in the village to help you build a bamboo house..."

After hearing what Ya Kun said, Su Fan waved his hand and declined.

"Forget it, I'll do it myself..."

"Have you planted spiritual fields before? I can find someone to help you open up wasteland and teach you some experience in managing spiritual fields..."

Ya Kun was afraid that Su Fan would have a bad start and think about leaving again, so he was very enthusiastic.

"I used to take care of the spiritual fields at home. You don't have to worry about this. Anyway, there are still two years of land reclamation. I can handle it alone..."

What a joke, if you bring a bunch of people here, I will be annoyed to death.

Ya Kun asked about his well-being here, and Su Fan wasted a lot of saliva before sending him away.

"Swoosh..."

Seeing that person leave, Sister Zhen, who couldn't wait any longer, jumped out of the portable secret realm.

"Master, this will be our cave from now on..."

Looking at Sister Zhen who was floating around, Su Fan nodded.

"Let your ghost soldiers and ghost generals clean up the strange beasts in the nearby mountains and forests..."

Sister Zhen heard a "whoosh" and disappeared.

Su Fan felt a slight fluctuation in the air next to him, and then it returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

He smiled bitterly and shook his head, pretending that he saw nothing.

After all, it was a little fellow in the larval stage, full of childishness.

Just now, he deliberately revealed a flaw, just to let himself know that it went with Sister Zhen.

Su Fan waved his hand, and several mechanical puppets appeared in front of him in an instant.

As soon as he thought about it, several auxiliary mechanical puppets seized from the Sulun people began to get busy in the spiritual field.

Reclaiming more than ten acres of wasteland with several auxiliary mechanical puppets of the Sulun people is like using a cannon to kill a mosquito.

It only took a few moments of effort to reclaim about ten acres of grass slope wasteland.

Next, Su Fan controlled several auxiliary mechanical puppets to sprinkle some low-level spiritual medicine seeds into the spiritual field, and the spiritual field was cultivated in less than an hour.

After taking a look at the cultivated spiritual field, his eyes condensed, and he performed the "Spring Breeze Raining Technique", and saw mist-like drizzles falling from the sky into the spiritual field.

In the future, just leave this to Sister Zhen, give her a few auxiliary mechanical puppets and a few "Spring Breeze Raining Talismans", and he won't have to take care of it.

Even so, he still keeps this. If he rubs a large number of low-level spiritual stones into powder and sprinkles them in the spiritual field, the spiritual grass will mature in a few days.

But in that case, it seems a bit shocking.

Even so, if other cultivators in the village knew that he had opened up a spiritual field in such a short time, they would be scared to death.

In order to reclaim wasteland, ten acres of spiritual fields will be greatly beneficial. After two years of reclamation, they can only harvest a few crops of low-level spiritual herbs.

There was no way, they didn't have auxiliary mechanical puppets, and how could the "Spring Breeze and Rain Technique" performed by the Qi Refining cultivators be compared with the old monster of the Nascent Soul.

Although Su Fan had been very restrained, he could make the spiritual grass seeds sprout overnight by performing the "Spring Breeze and Rain Technique".

After he had cultivated more than ten acres of spiritual fields, he came to the quiet valley nearby.

The vegetation here was lush, and the entire valley was covered with thorns and shrubs. Su Fan activated the "Purifying Red Lotus" magical power.

A scorching halo whizzed past, and the Yangji Disha cleared the messy vegetation in the entire valley.

Su Fan summoned several auxiliary mechanical puppets, leveled the land in the valley, and then built a bamboo house next to the deep pool.

In the early morning, the sun gradually fell from the sky, and the mist in the mountains and forests was stained with a faint golden color.

Su Fan sat cross-legged by the pool and slowly opened his eyes.

He has been in Shiliang Village for several months, and his life has returned to its previous peace. He lives a leisurely and comfortable life every day.

Su Fan has been wandering outside for so long, and finally he lives the life he wants.

Now this valley has changed a lot. The simple bamboo house has been built, and there is a fenced courtyard of dozens of square meters.

There are stoves, dining tables and naan pits in the courtyard, and the three meals a day are usually left to Sister Zhen.

The edge of the deep pool a few dozen steps away from the courtyard has also been transformed by Su Fan, and a flat stone platform has been laid.

There are lounge chairs, pit tables, red clay stoves and a complete set of tea sets on the stone platform. Every day he studies and ponders various Taoist traditions here.

Although he has been here for several months, except for Ya Kun who occasionally comes to visit, Su Fan still can't recognize all the other cultivators in the village.

There was no other way. The cultivators in the village had to work hard for their spiritual fields day and night, and they had to practice in the remaining time. It was impossible for them to be as leisurely as he was.

In order not to show his true colors, he did not set up any formations in the valley and the spiritual fields.

In addition to a few human gathering places in Demon Camel Mountain, formations were a great luxury in various mountain villages.

Su Fan just asked Sister Zhen to arrange some ghost soldiers in the nearby mountains and forests to act as secret sentinels around the cave.

Moreover, within a radius of dozens of miles, even if there was a slight movement, it could not be hidden from his perception.

Su Fan exhaled a breath of turbid air, then stood up from the ground and came to the small courtyard in front of the bamboo building next to him.

Sister Zhen was busy in front of the stove. She saw Su Fan and made a face at him.

"Master, breakfast will be ready soon..."

Su Fan came to the dining table and sat down. He turned his head and looked at the huge cave next to the valley. This was the cave that Sister Zhen dug specifically for Xuxu.

At this time, this guy was lying in front of the cave, gnawing on a huge leg bone of a strange beast with a satisfied look on his face.

Although the little guy is not big, he has a big appetite. It is not an easy task to feed him. Most people cannot afford the daily food intake.

Fortunately, Su Fan has nothing else in his hand, but he has all kinds of fifth-level monsters and strange beasts, so he doesn't need this one.

At this time, Sister Zhen floated over with a more than one-meter-long strange beast, and put it in the big basin on the dining table with a "bang".

"Master, how does it taste? I tossed it all night last night to make it well..."

The spiritual vein resources of Demon Camel Mountain are average, so the various strange beasts in the mountain are mostly low-level, and third-level strange beasts can occupy the mountain as kings.

This is a second-level strange beast named "Stormy Snow Rabbit".

This thing is not very powerful, but its reproductive ability is extremely strong. There are groups of them all over the surrounding mountains.

Although the spiritual materials on his body are not worth much, the meat is extremely tender.

So Su Fan taught Sister Zhen how to smoke rabbit in his previous life. He used more than 20 kinds of condiments such as tea, sugar, rice crust, ginger, green onion, star anise, sawdust, pine and cypress branches to make smoked rice, piled it in the naan pit and heated it to make the smoked materials burn and produce thick smoke.

After the "toothy snow rabbit" is marinated with seasonings, it is directly put into the naan pit to dehydrate and mature. It tastes crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and it is endless after a bite.

Not only this "toothy snow rabbit", but also various strange beasts in the surrounding mountains have been unlucky since Su Fan came.

Sister Zhen summoned a large number of ghost soldiers and ghost generals, and they tossed around in the surrounding mountains every day.

Nowadays, almost all the low-level strange beasts near the mountain village have migrated to other places. If they stay here, they will be extinct.

So now Sister Zhen uses these fresh ingredients to think about various foods every day.

A lot of practice has also improved her cooking skills. At least the taste of the dishes is more than one level stronger than before.

Looking at the bright red and rich smoked rabbit, Su Fan's appetite was suddenly boosted.

He didn't mind the heat, and directly broke off a fat and tender rabbit leg and took a big bite of it.

Oh my...

This bite was really soft and delicious, with a strong fragrance.

At this time, Xuxu, who had been lying outside the cave gnawing bones, smelled the aroma of smoked rabbit, put down the bones, and looked at Su Fan eagerly.

Sister Zhen covered her mouth and laughed, then floated to the naan pit, took out two fat and tender smoked rabbits, and threw them to the little guy.

Xuxu jumped up and bit the two smoked rabbits in his mouth, with incredible speed.

Seeing this guy swallow the two smoked rabbits in a few bites, Su Fan curled his lips and cursed him for being a foodie.

However, the little guy's speed is really damn fast.

Just now, this thing jumped out, and Su Fan was stunned to see how it moved.

If it activates the invisibility technique again, even the Nascent Soul cultivators can't avoid its sneak attack. If this thing is used well in the future, it can really be a great help to me.

After a breakfast, Su Fan made a whole smoked "toothy snow rabbit".

In addition, he also drank a large pot of spiritual rice porridge and several meat bags the size of a table. Anyway, this meal is enough for others to eat for ten days or half a month.

After eating and drinking, Su Fan came to the deep pool next to the bamboo building, and then stretched out on the recliner, quietly looking at the waterfall hanging from the cliff of the valley in a daze.
