Myriad Records of Spirit Fields, Low-Grade Golden Slaughter Formation
The first day of the Lunar New Year.
With a creak, the brown wooden door was pulled open from the inside.
Suddenly, a cold, damp wind carrying a dense flurry of snow rushed into the house.
The ground was covered with a layer of frost at a visible speed.
In an instant, the temperature inside the room plummeted.
Wangwang Pearl Chicken, who were still sleeping in, were suddenly woken up by the cold.
The dog and the chicken quickly huddled together, snuggling for warmth.
Xu Changqing poked his head out and glanced outside.
Everything was white, without a single other color in sight.
Everything in the world was frozen.
A biting cold wind howled.
The heavy snowflakes fell softly.
"The snow came later this year than last year," Xu Changqing remarked.
Fortunately, he was completely unaffected.
The most difficult time for the Wood Spirit Root is in the summer, when the heat is unbearable.
Spring, autumn, and winter are actually quite comfortable seasons.
Moreover, his cultivation level has now reached the Late Qi Refining.
After this period of improvement, the spiritual energy within my body has increased to seven strands.
At this rate, he might break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm on the day of the [Spiritual Qi Tide].
Creak!
Xu Changqing closed the brown wooden door again.
The commotion outside came to an abrupt halt.
The wind and snow that came in defiance felt like being turned away.
Seeing the two little ones still trembling, Xu Changqing moved the portable stove from the corner.
Although they don't need it themselves, they desperately need it right now.
Of course, let's roast a few sweet potatoes while we're at it.
A small amount of hay and scraps were thrown into the stove.
Then, strike the flints together to generate a dense shower of sparks.
Soon, the orange flames quickly engulfed the dry grass and debris.
The fire grew larger and the temperature gradually increased.
The chill that had seeped into the house gradually subsided as it lost its "backup".
Just a second ago, Wangwang and the Pearl Chicken were snuggling together.
The next second they separated with expressions of disgust.
"Your friendship is so short-lived." Xu Changqing shook his head upon seeing this, then walked towards the kitchen and began preparing breakfast.
Then I planned to go out and visit relatives and friends for the New Year.
Han Su and Hu Bugui a bit far away.
Bai Ling'er isn't at that level.
The Luo Family siblings haven't been in contact for several months.
Now, there's only one person left to send New Year's greetings to.
--Li Sancai
Half an hour later, Xu Changqing opened the door again after finishing breakfast.
The sky was still overcast.
The snow kept falling, covering the ground layer upon layer.
Bury everything from the past deep within.
Xu Changqing took out a flying paper crane and leaped into the air.
As it flew, it suddenly pulled out a straw hat and put it on its head.
Nothing special, snow got into my eyes.
The Flying Paper Crane is excellent value for money.
Unfortunately, it offers neither shelter from the wind nor protection from the rain.
Fortunately, it's faster than walking.
Before long, they arrived near Li Sancai's Spirit Fields.
Xu Changqing stood in front of the fence gate and called out, "Senior Brother!"
"Who is it?" Li Sancai was quite surprised that someone came looking for him so early in the morning.
"It's me." Xu Changqing grinned.
Seeing the other person braving the heavy snow, Li Sancai quickened his pace and asked with a surprised look, "Why are you looking for me so early in the morning?"
Once the gate opened, Xu Changqing handed over a pound of Second-Grade Spirit Rice Wine that he had prepared in advance, and then explained, "You've come to wish me a Happy New Year!"
"Uh." Li Sancai was stunned.
Xu Changqing asked with a smile, "Senior brother, don't you need to go home to pay New Year's visits?"
Li Sancai shook his head and said wistfully, "I haven't been home for many years since my parents died."
Normally, cultivation Lineage should be united and friendly.
But ever since Li Lingbi's lineage rose to prominence, the atmosphere suddenly changed.
Various forms of deceit and treachery.
You scheme against me, I scheme against you.
Home is no longer home; there is no warmth to be found.
The family members are becoming increasingly cold and impersonal.
They never care, they only know how to take.
After becoming completely disillusioned with his Lineage, Li Sancai never went back.
Xu Changqing could sense the emptiness in the person before him, and immediately said, "From now on, I will come to pay my respects to my senior brother every year."
"Great." Li Sancai smiled with satisfaction, deeply moved.
The two then went inside.
"Junior brother, please sit down. I'll go prepare some food." Li Sancai said, then walked towards the kitchen.
Xu Changqing sat on the cold, hard chair, his eyes curiously scanning his surroundings.
The interior is very simple.
There are only the most basic table and chairs, nothing more.
It seems that Li Sancai not interested in many things.
On the other hand, Zhang Su was enjoying herself to the fullest.
The room was filled with all sorts of antiques and calligraphy and paintings, creating a dazzling display.
The two people are complete opposites.
Not long after, Li Sancai took out the food.
Xu Changqing glanced at it, his lips twitching several times.
It's less of a meal and more of a snack to accompany drinks.
It seems this pound of Second-Grade Spirit Rice Wine won't last past today.
"Why isn't my junior brother eating?" Li Sancai asked, puzzled.
Xu Changqing chuckled dryly, "In my hometown, we get red envelopes when we visit relatives for the New Year."
Li Sancai was taken aback, then said with a wry smile, "How much do you want?"
Xu Changqing rubbed his hands together excitedly. "Senior brother, give me whatever you think is appropriate. One Low-Grade Spirit Stone is never too little, and one Mid-Grade Spirit Stone is never too much."
Li Sancai nodded upon hearing this, and then took out a Mid-Grade Spirit Stone from his Storage Bag.
Xu Changqing's eyes lit up; he hadn't expected such a generous offer.
However, when the Spirit Stone was handed over, Li Sancai suddenly withdrew his hand.
"Huh?" Xu Changqing looked at the other person in disbelief.
Li Sancai said with a serious expression, "I suddenly feel that something else would be more helpful to you, Junior Brother, than Spirit Stone."
Xu Changqing was very curious. "What is it?"
Li Sancai took out a book and handed it over while introducing it. "This book is called [The Myriad Records of Spirit Fields], which records in detail various Spirit Plant and various emergencies."
You've only been a member of the Spirit Field Core for a year, so you probably don't know much about many things.
Xu Changqing immediately took it, saying excitedly, "Thank you, senior brother!"
This is exactly what I desperately need.
Otherwise, you'll always have to bother others.
A sly glint flashed in Li Sancai's eyes.
As everyone knows, one Mid-Grade Spirit Stone is equal to 100 Low-Grade Spirit Stone.
This book, [The Myriad Records of Spirit Fields], is sold for 10 Low-Grade Spirit Stone.
Xu Changqing excitedly began flipping through the pages.
I quickly found some useful information.
How to avoid insect infestations in spring
A: Turn the soil in the winter when the temperature is low.
Why?
Because the insect eggs will freeze to death!
By noon, Xu Changqing had no choice but to leave.
It wasn't because he was trying to freeload that Li Sancai kicked him out.
It was the female array mage Han Xin who notified them.
The formation will be installed today.
Therefore, he had to go home early.
About half an hour later, Han Xin arrived as expected.
It has to be said, array masters are really rich.
Others use Flying Paper Crane or mythical beasts.
She was actually piloting a black flying shuttle.
Xu Changqing couldn't help but ask, "It's snowing here, are you sure you want to install the formation?"
Han Xin carefully stored the shuttle away, then said with a smile, "Isn't this taking care of our own people?"
"Are you sure?" Xu Changqing looked at her with suspicion.
Han Xin's smile vanished, and she rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Fine, I came to you because I was out of alcohol!"
Xu Changqing exclaimed, "That's five catties of Spirit Rice Wine!"
"Is five jin a lot?" Han Xin curled her lip in disdain.
"I..." Xu Changqing was speechless.
Han Xin waved her hand impatiently. "Stop talking nonsense, which low-level formation do you want to install?"
Xu Changqing came to his senses and pondered, "The insecticide is called Jin... what was it again?"
Although I obtained the [Myriad Records of Spirit Fields] from Senior Brother Li.
However, the formation must be installed.
After all, it's safer and more secure.
Han Xin blurted out, "Metal-Killing Formation."
Xu Changqing nodded vigorously. "Yes, yes, yes... let's call it the Metal-Killing Formation!!!"
