Read Ten Thousand Volumes, Write Like a God

In the northeastern forests of the Monster Mountain Range,

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King carried a sack of fruit to the brewing pool. At his Master's request, he had gradually learned the brewing process as well. Aside from cultivation, he spent most of his days brewing Peach Blossom Wine for his Master.

The Little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King naturally followed behind his father with great enthusiasm, carrying a large sack on his back as well.

His father had said that as long as he worked hard, he could earn his Master's reward and obtain a Shape Shifting Pill, allowing him to take human form sooner.

Thus, the Little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was especially diligent in his daily work.

Having inherited much of her teacher's knowledge, Xiao Yi Xian sat properly in the bamboo pavilion and read. "There really is a Golden House in books. It is fascinating that Master has collected so many books that have already vanished from the world. It is truly remarkable."

"Uncle, aren't you going to read?"

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King turned around and curled his lip. "We don't have the patience you humans do. Cultivation alone already feels difficult enough, let alone reading."

Resting her chin on her right hand, Xiao Yi Xian smiled and continued reading the records in the book. She had benefited enormously from the autobiography written by her teacher in particular.

In just a few days, she already felt as though she was about to break through. It was far faster than consuming poison.

Space tore apart as Jiang Cheng stepped out.

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King ran over and cupped his hands in salute. "Master, you're back."

"Master." Xiao Yi Xian put down the book in her hand and bowed as well.

Jiang Cheng nodded, then noticed the autobiography on the table. "I only wrote that autobiography casually. It won't help much with cultivation. When I have the chance, I'll personally write one for you."

"Really?"

Xiao Yi Xian's eyes lit up, and she thanked him repeatedly. "Thank you, Master."

"Don't worry. Since you're cultivating here, I certainly won't treat you poorly."

Jiang Cheng patted Xiao Yi Xian on the head, then stood with his hands behind his back and gazed into the endless green mountains and waters. "Read ten thousand volumes, and one may eventually become a sage. That is what all Scholars in the world pursue and yearn for."

"From now on, cultivate diligently and strive to break through to the Dou Emperor realm. I will also provide you with the Poison Pills you need according to the proper proportions."

"Mm-hmm, thank you, Master. I, Xiao Yi Xian, will never let you down in this life!"

Xiao Yi Xian cupped her hands and bowed, her eyes filled with reverence.

Jiang Cheng's fingers Slightly Moved, and a jar of wine slowly flew over.

Xiao Yi Xian thoughtfully filled her Master's cup with wine, then stood obediently behind him, waiting for his instructions.

Jiang Cheng pointed at the Little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. "Hey, don't use your feet. Your Master doesn't like Peach Blossom Wine made by stomping on it."

"Ah..." The Little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King hurriedly pulled back the claw he had stuck into a Peach and awkwardly licked away the moisture on it. While Master had been gone, he had been using his feet to stomp them...

Could it be that Master preferred girls' feet?

The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King grabbed a stick and Slammed it down. As the saying went, filial sons came from beneath the rod; beating was affection, scolding was love, and without either, no one would care for you.

Jiang Cheng secretly smiled. He had lived alone for ten years, but now that the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King and his son, as well as Xiao Yi Xian, were here, his lonely days had finally come to an end.

[Congratulations, Host, for completing the task assigned by the system. Reward: ten Experience Points.]

[Current Experience Points: 13/100]

The mechanical voice rang out In his mind, and Jiang Cheng staggered. Was this thing lagging? It had been a whole day since the task was completed, and only now had it reacted...

Looking at the Experience Points in the system, Jiang Cheng felt helpless. Breaking through to a Two-Star Dou Saint truly was incredibly difficult.

No wonder Heavenly Flames, which were as rare as Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures among Dou Saint Experts, were so scarce. Every realm had halted countless geniuses in their tracks, which was why there were so few Experts on the present-day Dou Qi Continent.

Experts at the Dou Saint realm were especially rare, as scarce as phoenix feathers and qilin horns. Every Dou Saint in any faction was a treasured jewel, supported and worshipped for a thousand years.

It was likewise the realm all Experts yearned for. Yet breaking through to become a Dou Saint was easier said than done. Some people could not even touch its threshold in their entire lives, and could only die when their lifespans ran out.

Jiang Cheng fanned the Folding Fan In Hand and turned sideways. "Xiao Yi Xian, have you ever regretted coming to Peach Forest Mountain?"

This place had originally been nameless, so Jiang Cheng had named it after the peach forest.

"Master, you jest. I have never regretted it. Although I have only lived here for a few days, I have never before experienced what it feels like to be cared for. I cherish this life, and I also love living together with everyone. Uncle Huo treats me very well too. I really like it here."

Xiao Yi Xian answered her Master's question from the bottom of her heart. Being able to stay here and cultivate was the happiest thing for her.

Jiang Cheng nodded in satisfaction. Just as he was about to say something more, a fierce expression appeared on his face.

"What nerve! Someone actually dared to chop down my Peach Trees!"

Jiang Cheng's furious shout drew the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's attention. Seeing his Master so enraged, he frowned as well.

"Master, what happened?"

"Someone is chopping down my Peach Trees. Come, let's go take a look."
