Shen Duheng: "I know what I'm doing."

Upon hearing this, Shan Heyuan took the Realm Spirit from his Dantian.

Shen Duheng took the little Realm Spirit, raised his hand and injected thirty-six streams of Spiritual Power into her body to seal her meridians before waking her up.

Realm Spirit opened her eyes, a look of confusion on her face.

The next moment, she sat up abruptly. "I know who you are! You're the sect leader of the Sword Reverence Sect. No, your cultivation isn't that low—"

Realm Spirit lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then frowned. "What exactly is going on with your Sword Reverence Sect? You are the sect leader..."

Substitute

"You've captured me, aren't you afraid of starting a war Sword Reverence Sect and Spirit Jade Palace?"

Shen Duheng: "You're not that bad."

Realm Spirit: "What exactly is your purpose?"

Shen Duheng: "Didn't you say you wanted us to visit Spirit Jade Palace? We didn't want to be guests, so we invited you instead."

Realm Spirit hadn't expected this reason and immediately looked annoyed. "What are you trying to do now?"

Shen Duheng: "Please stay here as a guest for ten or eight years."

Realm Spirit's expression shifted between light and dark.

Shen Duheng said to Shan Heyuan, "I'll talk to her."

Shan Heyuan: "You two keep talking, I need to organize my Dantian."

Shen Duheng quickly carried Realm Spirit upstairs.

Shan Heyuan sat in the recliner, slowly recalling the recent events.

The more he recalled it, the more he felt they were incredibly audacious to have kidnapped the Realm Spirit of the Spirit Jade Palace.

The Realm Spirit are the spirits of the secret realm; they should have a deeper understanding of things like space, right?

Could I communicate with the Realm Spirit to learn how to upgrade my Dantian Small World?

Wrong.

Since we're going to Realm Spirit up, we definitely can't let her wander around in her Dantian Small World. We need to build her a house inside.

Shan Heyuan.

He focused his Divine Sense into his Dantian, mobilized his Spiritual Power, and slowly built a small house inside his Dantian.

He tentatively carved imprisonment symbols on the outside of the small house.

He wasn't very familiar with runes; the few he knew were the ones he used most often, and he gradually became proficient at them.

Back home, Shan Heyuan felt much more relaxed.

He walked to the futon beside him, sat down cross-legged, and focused on cultivating his Dantian Small World.

Most of the space inside the Dantian Small World was empty.

He built a small house on the edge, and then divided the inside of his Dantian into several areas, where he planned to plant different Spirit Plant.

The Illusionless Tree, Earth Origin Grass, Tranquility Lotus, and Lightning-Struck Wood Sprout don't need to be touched; just let them grow over there.

A batch of Core Formation grade Spirit Plant can be planted in the Dantian.

He had very few Core Formation grade Spirit Plant; he had previously planned to plant some Foundation Establishment grade Spirit Plant instead.

However, since they had obtained so many Top-Grade Spirit Stones from the Spirit Jade Palace, they were now financially well-off and no longer needed to buy Foundation Establishment level seeds; they could directly use Core Formation level seeds.

As the largest city on the Guangping Continent, Sword Reverence City has many cultivators who sell Core Formation -grade Spirit Plant; he knows of at least several.

If you give enough Spirit Stone, you can buy it back tomorrow.

There was also the Sword Reverence Sect Nascent Soul grade seed given to us by Fengjian Sect.

Although it's just a deposit and he hasn't yet refined the Fertilizer Pill to deliver, he's already at the Core Formation Middle Stage. As long as he has the materials ready, he can refine it at any time, so he doesn't need to worry about the deal falling through.

If they really can't do it, it's most likely because they've run into trouble and are preparing to flee.

Since they were already prepared to flee, the Sword Reverence Sect certainly wouldn't return this Nascent Soul- level seed.

Shan Heyuan carefully took out the jade box containing the seeds from his storage ring.

The seed given to him by the Sword Reverence Sect is called "Great River Flower," and it is the main ingredient for refining the Meridian-Unblocking Pill.

If a cultivator is injured or Qi Deviation, resulting in blocked meridians, using the Meridian-Unblocking Pill will be extremely effective.

Meridian blockage is also a common ailment among cultivators. The Great River Flower is very popular in the market, so there is no situation where it can be grown but not sold.

The seeds of the Great River Flower are as big as an egg, and are translucent, like a piece of crystal-clear amber.

Shan Heyuan held it and carefully sensed it, discovering that the Spiritual Power inside was not that abundant.

This is an old seed; it must have been stored for over a hundred years.

But it's okay, just soak it in some spiritual liquid and it will sprout and grow very well.

After soaking the seeds, Shan Heyuan replaced the soil in the yard again.

They had only been cultivating this land for a little over six months, and he had never imagined that one day his Dantian would become a small world.

If he had known, he wouldn't have gone through all this trouble for nothing.

The high-grade spiritual soil in the courtyard has been used to grow Spirit Plant for so long, and has been watered with countless spiritual liquids and fertilized with countless Fertilizer Pills. Its quality is even higher than when it was first transported here.

After this soil was placed into the Dantian Small World, it instantly gave the Dantian Small World a completely different appearance.

Against the backdrop of the dark, spiritual soil, the Dantian Small World seemed to instantly transform into a paradise.

The sun, formed from a magical elixir, hung overhead, and newly built huts lined the edges of the village. Plots of land were covered with lush, green medicinal herbs, resembling the scene outside a secluded village.

Unfortunately, there wasn't enough soil, and in some places, the soil couldn't cover the area, exposing the dark, Dantian ground beneath.

At first glance, the ground and soil seem no different, but upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that the ground in the Dantian is hard and barren, while the area covered by spiritual soil is soft and vibrant.

It seems they need to buy another batch of spirit soil.

Shan Heyuan was busy in the yard.

As dusk fell, the last rays of twilight disappeared, and starlight replaced the sunset.

Shen Duheng finally brought Realm Spirit down.

Realm Spirit fell into a coma again.

Upon seeing this, Shan Heyuan immediately asked, "Your conversation didn't seem to be going well?"

Shen Duheng hummed in agreement. "The Realm Spirit isn't very cooperative, and we can't really do anything to her, so we'll just let her continue sleeping."

Shan Heyuan picked up Realm Spirit on the recliner. "I just made some modifications to my Dantian Small World, take a look."

Shan Heyuan pulled Shen Duheng's wrist, gesturing for him to press his forehead against Shen's.

Shen Duheng lowered his head slightly, touching Shan Heyuan's forehead, his eyes flickering.

Shan Heyuan, completely oblivious to his unusual behavior, was excitedly describing the state of his Dantian: "Look, doesn't your Dantian now resemble a secluded retreat?"

Shen Duheng looked inward at his Dantian, and after a moment said, "If you plant some common plants, it will look even more like it."

Shan Heyuan: "Yes. In a couple of days, when we have some free time, I'll buy some fruit trees like spirit peaches and plant them nearby."

Shen Duheng: "I wonder if there will ever be a day when we can truly enter the Dantian Small World?"

"Who knows? Maybe when my cultivation level is higher, or yours is higher, we'll find another way to get in. Wouldn't Realm Spirit be able to get in?"

At this point, Shan Heyuan simply picked up the Realm Spirit beside him and asked, "How long will the Realm Spirit sleep? Won't it wake up halfway through?"

Shen Duheng: "No, generally not. We can check on her every day."

"Then I'll put her in the room within my Dantian Small World. If she wakes up, I should be able to sense her condition immediately."

Speaking of this, Shan Heyuan suddenly remembered. "Oh right, I was thinking of mentioning this before. When I placed the Realm Spirit into my Dantian Small World, it seemed like I could read some of her thoughts and memories."

"Thoughts and memories?"

"Probably, anyway, it's what's in her head. When you sealed my memories, I discovered some strange images and thoughts in my mind, and after careful examination, I could see the figure of the Realm Spirit."

Shan Heyuan was speaking, he suddenly noticed that Shen Duheng's expression had become serious and earnest.

Shen Duheng said, "I also found some strange images in your memories, but I don't believe they were brought by the Realm Spirit."
