Entering the Azure Cloud Spirit Field Dungeon, Mysterious Old Man!

An idea sprang to mind, and you prepared to follow behind Jin Congxue, knowing that by following her, you might find the Dungeon entrance.

Jin Congxue grew wary of you, but after confirming that your strength posed no threat to her, she stopped paying attention.

You followed her all the way, only to find that she merely intended to return to Jinling City.

Jin Congxue chose a small path back into the city. Your heart stirred, and you felt that she might have discovered the Dungeon entrance on this very path.

In the blink of an eye, Jin Congxue vanished from sight. You were greatly alarmed, thinking she had already entered the Dungeon.

Just then, a cold voice rang out behind you. "Who are you? Why are you following me?"

Looking at the beauty before you, faintly annoyed, you could only grit your teeth and say that you were very fond of Buddhism. You had heard that Jin Congxue was quite knowledgeable about Buddhism, so you wished to seek her guidance.

Jin Congxue said she did not believe you and asked you some basic Buddhist questions.

Fortunately, you had studied some Buddhist teachings in advance. Though your answers were halting and stumbling, they barely managed to convince her.

Jin Congxue asked what you wanted to ask her. You brought up the "Ten Great Difficult Questions of Buddhist Verses" that you had seen Online, but Jin Congxue could not answer them.

Jin Congxue said she would answer you in a few days. Seizing the chance, you said that you wanted to return to the city with her.

Jin Congxue reluctantly agreed, and the two of you walked along the small road outside the city.

Before long, you discovered that beneath a willow tree not far away, a strange light suddenly began to shine.

Jin Congxue was both startled and delighted. She said that this should be a temporary Dungeon, and that she wanted to enter and explore it.

You hurriedly said that you wanted to explore it as well, but Jin Congxue said your strength was too low and that she could not protect you.

You insisted on entering. She merely took it as you volunteering for a Suicide Mission and did not refuse.

You entered the "Azure Cloud Spirit Field" Dungeon.

Su Xing was overjoyed when he saw this. It had worked!

Azure Cloud Spirit Field was clearly a cultivation-themed Dungeon. Su Xing did not yet know what secrets it contained, but it would definitely be of great use to him.

Su Xing continued the simulation with excitement.

You arrived in an unfamiliar environment. This was a mountaintop, with clear mountains and beautiful waters, and a Thatched Cottage in the distance.

You were beside yourself with joy, because you sensed dense spiritual energy in the surrounding environment. This truly was a cultivator's dwelling!

Jin Congxue walked toward the Thatched Cottage, and you followed.

You knocked on the door of the Thatched Cottage, and an old man with crane-white hair and the face of a child emerged from within.

The old man was very surprised by your arrival. He said that this place was an Immortal Family Secret Realm, and none but those with deep fortune and affinity could enter.

The old man stated that you were people blessed with providence. If you were willing to complete his commission, he was willing to grant you a fortuitous opportunity.

You accepted the task. The task was to tend a Spirit Field for one week.

You and Jin Congxue each received one mu of Spirit Field. A great deal of Spirit Grain had been planted there, and your task was to make the Spirit Grain grow better.

You and Jin Congxue exchanged glances, understanding that this was likely no small fortuitous opportunity. Thus, you began tending the Spirit Fields with care.

Because you had lived in the countryside since childhood, you had considerable experience growing crops and quickly got the hang of it.

Since Jin Congxue had never grown crops before, she was clumsy in tending her field and ruined quite a bit of Spirit Grain.

Jin Congxue asked you for advice. You readily agreed and taught her much common knowledge about growing crops.

Jin Congxue's favor toward you increased, and you became friends.

While tending the Spirit Fields, you discovered that spiritual energy could promote the growth of the Spirit Fields. In particular, your Wood Attribute technique, the Evergreen Cultivation Technique, was exceptionally effective for growing Spirit Fields!

You treasured this opportunity, so every day, you spent eight hours tending the Spirit Fields and channeling spiritual energy into them.

Under your attentive care, the Spirit Grain grew splendidly.

Soon, seven days passed. During those seven days, aside from tending the Spirit Fields, you spent all your spare time cultivating. Your Qi Refinement Realm broke through to the Qi Refinement Fifth Layer.

On the day the task was due, the old man emerged from the Thatched Hut to inspect the results of your farming.

The old man first examined Jin Congxue's Spirit Field. After making a round through the field, his expression remained calm.

Soon, he came to your Spirit Field. Seeing the thriving growth of the Spirit Grain in your field, the old man revealed a look of surprise.

After inspecting the Spirit Fields, the old man called you aside and distributed your task rewards.

The old man gave Jin Congxue ten Spirit Stones, as well as a small bag of Spirit Rice.

Su Xing revealed a surprised expression when he saw this.

If he remembered correctly, Jin Congxue's reward had previously been three Spirit Stones and a small bag of Spirit Rice.

But now, there were a full seven more Spirit Stones. There was only one reason...

With Su Xing's help, the Spirit Grain in Jin Congxue's Spirit Field had grown better!

And Su Xing's Spirit Grain had grown far better than Jin Congxue's. What reward would he receive?

Su Xing felt somewhat expectant.

After giving Jin Congxue her reward, the old man waved his hand, and Jin Congxue was teleported out of the Dungeon.

Then, the old man took out a transparent stone and told you to place your hand on it.

You placed your hand upon it, and a faint five-colored light soon flashed across the stone.

The old man sighed softly. He said that you possessed a Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root. Though you had Cultivation Talent, Eternal Life was beyond hope.

Su Xing was not surprised to see this. After all, his Talent, Spiritual Root Holder, was of White Quality. Having a Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root was perfectly normal.

The old man hesitated for a while before finally taking out a small bag of Spirit Stones and a large bag of Spirit Rice for you. The bags contained thirty Spirit Stones and approximately thirty jin of Spirit Rice.

The old man waved his hand and drove you out of the Dungeon.

After leaving the Dungeon, you encountered Jin Congxue. Jin Congxue asked what rewards you had obtained.

You took out part of the Spirit Stones and Spirit Rice, saying that your reward was the same as hers, only in somewhat greater quantity.

Jin Congxue nodded slightly and did not press you.

You remained in Jinling City for several more days and got along well with Jin Congxue before returning to Kyoto Vocational University.

After returning to Kyoto Vocational University, you continued selling equipment as usual and established the Tarot Society.

You had quite a substantial fortune. Wang Qingxuan came looking for you, and you understood without needing words, trying a new position you had never tried before.

Afterward, Wang Qingxuan indeed disappeared, and you continued running your business.

You did not use the Spirit Stones obtained from the Dungeon, but every few days, you cooked a bowl of Spirit Rice to satisfy your cravings.

The Spirit Rice was fragrant, sweet, and delicious. Eating one bowl meant you could go three days without food, and it also nourished your body.

A year passed, and you discovered that your Body Tempering Cultivation had somehow broken through to the Bone Forging Stage without your noticing!

You understood in your heart that it was likely the result of the Spirit Rice working in tandem with Fitness Expert.

By the fifth year, you were expelled from school. You had expected it long ago and continued with your old trade of selling secondhand equipment.

Over those five years, your Body Tempering Cultivation continued to rise, and you became a cultivator of the Bone Forging Fifth Realm.
