Chapter 1380: Consider it accumulating merit for myself.
As dawn breaks, the eastern horizon is bathed in pale golden light, and rays of light, like thin veils, pierce through the gray-white clouds, casting a hazy, soft glow over the heavens and earth.

In the vast expanse of heaven and earth, mountains rise and fall in endless rows, and valleys are deep and tranquil.

Ancient trees tower into the clouds, their branches and leaves lush and verdant, layer upon layer of green resembling a natural ink painting scroll, swaying gently in the breeze.

Su Fan sat quietly cross-legged by the pool next to the thatched hut, concentrating on cultivating the "Fish Leaps to Dragon Transformation Dao Ruins Treasure Scroll".

As the true dragon blood within him continued to purify, the growth of his various bodily functions became increasingly slow, like a snail struggling to climb a steep cliff.

However, for cultivators who reach the late stage of the Void Refinement Realm, even the slightest increase in any aspect of their physical attributes is extremely precious.

A moment later, Su Fan slowly opened his eyes, exhaled a breath of turbid air, then calmly stood up from the ground and strolled towards the small courtyard in front of the thatched hut.

At that moment, Li Chongxiu, who was busy at the stove, caught a glimpse of him.

She quickly stopped what she was doing and said with a smile, "Master, please wait a moment, breakfast will be ready soon..."

Su Fan sat down at the dining table and saw several young girls walking briskly, carrying a large pot together.

They deftly served Su Fan a bowl of spirit rice porridge, their movements skillful yet cautious.

Recalling the scene of intercepting that smuggling airship last time, the little girls who were sold as furnaces were all properly placed in Sister Zhen's personal secret realm.

These children were originally bred as vessels for evil purposes, but they also developed excellent aptitudes as a result, and all of them were born beauties.

Su Fan originally planned to send them back to their families, but then he thought about it and worried that they would be discovered by the forces of the Great World and fall into danger again.

Moreover, many children are commodities in the hands of human traffickers, and their backgrounds are difficult to ascertain.

After much deliberation, Su Fan decided to leave them in his personal secret realm for the time being and assigned Li Chongxiu to supervise their cultivation.

Li Chongxiu comes from a prestigious family. Although she was born out of wedlock, she received formal sect education from a young age and has a profound understanding of basic cultivation. She is undoubtedly the most suitable person to teach these children.

Since these thousands of young girls entered the portable secret realm, this once desolate and gloomy space has finally become a bit more lively.

In the past, besides Sister Zhen and Li Chongxiu, this place was filled with all sorts of ghostly soldiers and generals, turning a perfectly good secret realm into a sinister place.

In the past, the secret realm was filled with nothing but Sister Zhen, Li Chongxiu, and eerie ghost soldiers and generals, but now it is filled with the laughter of children.

Li Chongxiu was overjoyed. She and Zhenjie found a valley near the thatched cottage and built a place of study, modeled after a secular school.

Every day, they patiently teach the children to read, write, and practice martial arts here.

In his spare time, Su Fan would also go to the school to teach the children basic knowledge such as talisman making, weapon making, and array formation.

Despite being a rogue cultivator, Su Fan has amassed a mountain of cultivation techniques and lineages through years of battles. He could easily provide these children with a solid foundation for their cultivation.

At this moment, Li Chongxiu came over with several steaming baskets of buns and sat down at the dining table.

Her gaze inadvertently fell on the low table next to her, where several children were sitting on small stools, quietly eating their breakfast.

Seeing this, Su Fan said softly, "Let the children eat at the main table..."

Li Chongxiu gently patted him, then turned around and looked at the children.

She said earnestly, "Don't get involved in this. We're setting rules for them..."

After hearing Li Chongxiu's words, Su Fan remained silent.

He understood Li Chongxiu's good intentions. With thousands of children living together, without rules and regulations, things would inevitably fall into chaos sooner or later.

Currently, Li Chongxiu is implementing a strict cultivation system in the secret realm. The children can only obtain the most basic cultivation techniques through daily practice. If they want to obtain more advanced techniques, they must accumulate merit points in exchange for them. The way to obtain merit points is by completing various tasks.

Just like these children in the courtyard, they voluntarily help Li Chongxiu cook every morning in order to earn good deeds.

In addition, children who make significant progress in their cultivation will be rewarded for their good deeds.

In this small, secret world, Li Chongxiu uses this method to teach children that any achievement requires hard work, and there is absolutely no such thing as getting something for nothing.

In fact, this is a common practice among various sects, and Li Chongxiu was educated in this way from a young age.

These children are still young and innocent.

Su Fan knew that once they grew up, a large group of girls gathered together without rules and order would inevitably cause many troubles.

In my past life, there was a four-person girls' dormitory and five WeChat groups—it wasn't just talk.

Su Fan had already planned that in a few years, he would do everything he could to send these children home. Every child he could send back would save another family.

He didn't want anything in return; he just considered it as accumulating merit for himself.

After finishing breakfast, Su Fan left his personal secret realm and went to the small courtyard outside.

He pushed open the courtyard gate and slowly walked along a quiet alley to the main street.

After the massacre at "Black Wind Village", Su Fan settled down in a remote market town in the western part of "Qing Huan Tian".

To resolve his identity issue, he used a secret technique of the Divine Soul Path to easily deceive the market guards and swaggered in.

Even the Nascent Soul cultivators guarding the market couldn't see through his secret technique. Thus, Su Fan spent more than a year peacefully there.

Currently, the various sects and forces of "Qinghuantian" are still searching everywhere.

Su Fan was not afraid of them, but he did not want to cause unnecessary trouble.

Once a conflict arises with them, they will inevitably be subjected to endless pursuit, which is truly a losing proposition.

Fortunately, Su Fan successfully shifted the blame this time, and at least for now, no one has suspected him.

Despite the remote location of this market town, the "Qinghuantian" sect still sent people to investigate.

At the critical moment, Su Fan once again activated his divine soul technique, easily deceiving the sect disciples and successfully escaping the crisis.

Su Fan also wanted to leave "Qinghuantian" as soon as possible, but unfortunately this was the Great World, and "Ruyi Pavilion" was of no use here.

Having grown accustomed to Qin Yu's intelligence support, Su Fan now felt like a headless fly, bumping around aimlessly.

He found a spot on the street in the market, laid out an animal skin, and then placed some cultivation supplies on it.

Su Fan took out a small stool, sat on it, and then took out an ancient book to read.

Although this small market town is located in a remote area, it has attracted many independent cultivators from the surrounding area because it is the only market town in the vicinity.

After a while, there were more pedestrians on the street, and more and more independent cultivators set up stalls on both sides of the street.

Su Fan read a book while listening to the chatter of the rogue cultivators around him.
