Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 705

[Chapter 703 Situation (Additional updates, please subscribe)]

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, several years have passed.

Fang Xi watched Xiao Chong break through the realm and become a rookie cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining.

This made him sigh that the Earthly Immortal Realm was indeed suitable for breakthroughs.

This amount of time only allowed him to get familiar with Zhou Jun and Widow Liang.

A breeze blew.

By the river, a few acres of newly reclaimed spiritual fields showed tender green seedlings.

These acres of land were naturally opened up by Widow Liang. According to her, how could a living person be suffocated to death by urine?

Since it is dangerous outside the market, it is better to open up spiritual fields inside the market.

To this end, she overturned several original stone caves, worked hard to clear the rubble, and opened up this three-acre land from the ruins. She also saved spiritual stones from her daily income and bought spiritual rice seeds for farming.

It seems that the magical rice is growing quite well now.

After all, Black Rock Market was once a major spiritual vein. Even though it is a bit dilapidated now, it is still much better than other places.

Fang Xi practiced secret techniques and made talismans every day…

I like to come and see the spiritual fields during my morning routine walk.

After all, he was born a spiritual farmer, and now he is a terrestrial immortal, so he has a good impression of this.

“Hey, Brother Liang, are you farming again?”

Fang Xi greeted with a smile.

In the spiritual field, Widow Liang clasped her hands together and the magical energy on her body gradually dissipated. It was obvious that she had just finished performing the spiritual farmer’s weeding spell.

Xiao Chong was standing by, working hard to pick up the dead bodies of pests that were pierced by the Gengjin sword energy on the ground.

These insects grow up eating magical rice and taste pretty good. They can be made into meat if roasted.

——As time went by, food in the market became increasingly scarce.

Not to mention… monks are also human beings.

Low-level cultivators will form Taoist couples, and the probability of having children is quite high.

Only when you reach a high level, it becomes more difficult to have offspring.

“Uncle!”

The little bug called out obediently.

“Well, good boy…”

Fang Xi responded with a smile.

“Look how much the children like you… Although you can fast and don’t need much food, why don’t you come with us… I can leave five acres of land for you.”

Widow Liang tucked her hair behind her ears and made another suggestion.

This woman was also a smart person. When she saw the rising grain prices in the market, she planned to open up spiritual fields.

Unfortunately, this matter could not be bypassed by the manager of the Tianfan Gang, so he tried to win over himself and Zhou Jun next to him.

Fang Xi was very clear about the other party’s attitude towards him in the past, and he would definitely keep his distance from him and avoid him as much as possible.

Obviously, in the eyes of Widow Liang, evil needs to be dealt with by evil. Compared with the risk of starving to death, there is no other way but to pretend to be nice to her.

If she didn’t have a few helpers behind the scenes, she wouldn’t dare to open up new areas in the market.

But Fang Xi didn’t think much of this and therefore rejected it outright.

However, Zhou Jun, for some reason, actually agreed and took a small share.

It was he who intervened to get the manager of the Tianfan Gang to pretend that he didn’t know about the matter.

According to Fang Xi’s observation, this person’s serious injury has not yet healed, and instead has a tendency to worsen. He is afraid that his life span will be greatly shortened. Now he lives in seclusion here. One reason is to retire and wait for death, and the second is probably to find a successor.

“Unfortunately, I don’t like eating spiritual rice.”

Fang Xi still refused with a smile.

Widow Liang didn’t say much, knowing that this ruthless man in the late stage of foundation building must have hidden a lot of wild beast meat.

As long as the food is stored properly and combined with the technique of fasting, the foundation-building cultivators can persist for many years. I can’t help but envy them.

If she didn’t have the burden of Xiao Chong, why would she work so hard?

Fortunately, when the spiritual rice harvest comes, we will have made it through, and maybe we can relax a little next year?
“Mother… I’m going to help Grandpa Zhou sort out the herbs.”

After helping to catch the pests, Xiao Chong came up to Widow Liang and said.

During this period, he would run to Zhou Jun whenever he had free time, mainly because Zhou Jun often gave him some berries and licorice from the herbal medicine, which tasted good and immediately captured the child’s stomach.

“Go ahead, go ahead…”

Widow Liang was happy to see this happen.

Zhou Jun is an alchemist! Even if he can’t accept Xiao Chong as his apprentice, it would be great if he could teach him some herbal knowledge.

What’s more, she still needs Zhou Jun as a backer to farm safely, so she encourages Xiao Chong to show more courtesy.

“Xiao Chong is a good kid. He has a top-grade wood spirit root and a bottom-grade fire spirit root… He is quite suitable to be an alchemist.”

Fang Xi looked at Xiao Chong’s back and exclaimed in admiration.

He was generally certain that Zhou Jun was interested in accepting a disciple.

“Yes, if Xiao Chong can become an alchemist, then I can rest assured.”

Widow Liang patted her trembling chest and was about to say something when she saw a small green bird land on Fang Xi’s shoulder.

“Friend Liang, I have something to do, so I will go ahead.”

Fang Xi continued to smile and returned to his cave.

Widow Liang waited until Fang Xi left before she showed a hint of suspicion.

She still couldn’t see through this ‘Fang Yuan’.

He is clearly in the late foundation building stage, so why is he willing to hang out in the slums and hang out with them, instead of joining the Tianfan Gang or the Leihuo Hall, and from then on, he can avenge his enemies and become a big shot in the Black Rock Market?

You know, the conflicts between these two gangs are becoming more and more intense, and they are trying to win over those high-level monks.

Of course, although there is oppression on the lower-level independent cultivators, those who look difficult to mess with will be spared.

This is entirely a historical issue. After all, this place was once a place where high-level monks lived together. Who knows if there are people who are playing the pig to eat the tiger?
Or if you are lucky, you can pick up a powerful talisman or a disposable treasure from the corpse of a high-level monk.

There are many examples in Black Rock Market where gang members were too intimidating and ended up being dragged to their deaths by insignificant Qi-refining monks!
Mutual fear and concessions have formed the current ecology of Black Rock Market.

Although chaotic, there is also some order…

…

Inside the cave.

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

Fang Xi closed the door, and a layer of restrictions automatically emerged.

“Owner……”

On his shoulder, Xiao Qing finally couldn’t hold it in anymore and spoke, “I didn’t slack off at all. I flew to the cave, met those two, and then immediately came back with a reply…”

Even for a Divine Transformation cultivator, it would take years to visit a friend’s cave! How long would
it take to go to Tianfan City?
This was also the reason why these low-level cultivators were restricted from migrating and could only wait passively.

“You didn’t get into any trouble along the way?”

Fang Xi asked cautiously.

“Wuwuwu… Master, it’s so dangerous in the wilderness. Xiaoqing encountered powerful wild beasts several times and almost couldn’t come back…”

The little bluebird chirped as if complaining.

Fang Xi rolled his eyes: “I knew you were thinking about my little fortune… I will reward you with a spiritual treasure later. Where is the reply?”

Anyway, the psychic treasure is of no use to him now and needs to be replaced.

It is normal to give the replaced ones to pets and subordinates.

The little bluebird nodded in satisfaction, opened its beak and blew out a ray of light.

In the rosy glow, a jade slip faintly emerged.

Fang Xi grabbed it in his hand and scanned the ground with his mind.

This letter was written by Liu Xu. According to what the other party said, they left at that time and then went to seek refuge with the “Uncle Qianhua” for protection.

That uncle-master was a Return to Void cultivator who had occupied a fifth-order spiritual vein in the wilderness to open up a cave. Because he was few in number and did not show off, the greatest danger he encountered was just a few wild beasts besieging him, which was easily resolved…

In the letter, Liu Xu also expressed her concern for Fang Xi. That night, the Black Rock Market was besieged by ancient wild beasts. After learning about it, this woman was really worried about Fang Xi.

Unfortunately, Fang Xi did not tell the other party that he had returned to the market town to continue hiding.

He is accustomed to hiding something from everyone.

Skipping the previous greetings, Fang Xi finally turned to the information about Tianfan City that he most wanted to see.

If everything is fine in Tianfan City, reinforcements will arrive and even the super teleportation array will be repaired.

The worst that could happen to him is that he would give up waiting for the Triangular Rhino to come to him, go directly to Tianfan City, redeem himself, and then take the super teleportation array to return to the human race.

In this way, this identity is truly clean, and even if it joins any combination or Mahayana sect in the future, it can withstand investigation.

Unfortunately, as he continued reading, Fang Xi’s expression gradually became gloomy.

Finally, he sighed with disappointment.

“Tianfan City was besieged by several waves of ancient beasts in succession. Although it finally survived, it also suffered heavy losses?”

“That injured fusion monk hasn’t shown up yet. Could he have run away secretly?”

“Liu Xu and Yun Xi do not recommend going to Tianfan City at this time. After all, if you go there, you will be drafted and become cannon fodder!”

Fang Xi thought about it and naturally gave up the idea of going to Tianfan City.

Although he is now in the early stage of Return to Void, Tianfan City is the core of Tianfan Realm. There are no less than ten Return to Void cultivators, and there are even cultivators in the late stage of Return to Void.

If I go there myself, I still won’t get any power and will be easily plotted against.

It’s better to be outside, where the sky is high and the birds fly freely.

The Fanxu cultivator from the Tianmei Sect most likely thought the same.

“Given the power of the Tianmei Sect, the information should be true!”

“It seems that it is better to continue to practice here for a while… After all, there is no requirement for spiritual veins in the practice of secret arts and magical powers.”

Fang Xi continued reading and his expression changed again.

Fairy Liu Xu and Fairy Yun Xi are both Divine Transformation cultivators, and are considered middle and high-level in the Tianmei Sect. This time, they won the favor of ‘Uncle Qianhua’ and were told many secrets of the upper echelons!

“It turns out that the reason for this land reclamation… was mainly driven by King Kong, one of the five sons of the human race.”

“And the basis for this… is that a good friend of mine predicted that rapidly opening up the wasteland at this time would bring more benefits than disadvantages?!”

Fang Xi was speechless.

However, many monks believe in numerology and divination, so there is nothing that can be done about it.

As he continued reading, he was slightly moved: “That good friend of Jin Gangzi… is extremely good at deducing the secrets of heaven, and is known as the best fortune teller of the human race. No wonder Jin Gangzi really started to act as soon as the divination came out…”

Here are some books to offer as sacrifices: “I Have a World of Immortal Cultivation”, “Into Unscientific”, and “Welcome to the World of Demonic Cultivation”
