I have to get lucky right away.

Chapter 295 Am I overthinking this?

"The rewards are quite substantial. It shouldn't just be for evil spirits, but also for thwarting the Japanese devils' conspiracy." Feng Xue felt the feedback from the power of her will and nodded thoughtfully. She had to admit that it was a comfortable world where heaven had eyes and the underworld knew. Doing good deeds was as simple as doing them, but those who did bad deeds had to consider many things.

However, this system is not without its flaws, because the humanitarian system varies from region to region. For example, people in war-torn areas have relatively weak moral values, and the local humanitarian system is naturally more lenient. If a cultivator living in such an environment goes to a peaceful area, he will still be affiliated with the original humanitarian system before he has integrated into the local humanitarian system.

This means they can be more unscrupulous than the locals, which is the so-called "foreign monks chanting scriptures better".

"It doesn't matter. If humanity can't handle it, there's always the underworld. A bunch of Japanese devils causing trouble on the land of China, the bigwigs below will take care of it. I'd better think about how to spend this wish power."

Feng Xue shook her head, no longer thinking about the Japanese devils, and walked towards her new home while pondering how to use the wealth she had.

If it were when he first transmigrated, he would have fed the Jade Rabbit without hesitation (although he didn't have one back then). But now he still has over twenty years of lifespan left, the Jade Rabbit still has the faith chamber in the sea world, and the "magic computer" and "artificial intelligence" systems on Little Bell's side are still being developed, so there's no rush to raise it.

As for Ghidorah, it's a waste to feed it with items to raise it as an external nascent soul, and as for Little Bell, there's no shortage of them from the start.

After much deliberation, Feng Xue decided to seal it away for now and see if there was any progress in her research on Zhuoyuan before deciding how to spend it.

Although it was already the first day of the Lunar New Year, Feng Xue didn't really feel it because she was constantly running around. In addition, entertainment in this world was very scarce, so she didn't feel like it was the New Year at all.

Feng Xue turned Liu Yunxi into a human and asked her to prepare some late-night snacks. Then she continued her previous research, with the first thing she focused on being the Enlightenment Technique, which lacked a testing environment in the online game world.

"But you can't borrow my intelligence, otherwise I'll become stupid and won't be able to react, that would be too stupid. I guess I'll just keep drawing Kaguya. Anyway, I don't have a brain, so drawing a few more won't be a big problem."

With that in mind, Feng Xue began to burn incense and light candles, designing a ritual to "share the wisdom of the moon and the god of longevity with all living beings." According to the information given by Merlo, combined with some ritual systems, it was not too difficult.

Just like coding, it's essentially a physical activity. Before you know it, almost an hour has passed.

"That's about it. Although it's a bit simple, there are a lot of big shots in this world. To avoid misunderstandings, it's better not to be too conspicuous."

Looking at the altar, which resembled a decades-old elementary school desk with its writing and drawing, Feng Xue found a window that allowed the moonlight to shine into the room. She arranged the incense and candles so that the moonlight would fall precisely in the center of the altar before taking out the exquisitely carved jade carving of Su'e Huiye.

The sculpture was painstakingly crafted by Feng Xue using the Jade-Unraveling Technique. The image remains that of a fairy dressed in palace attire, with a feathered robe draped over her shoulders and flowing long hair. However, Feng Xue slightly altered the pose, changing it to one where she holds a medicine jar in both hands, seemingly as if she is giving away a precious medicine.

Place the jade carving in the moonlight, and put a white jade cup under the half-tilted medicine pot.

Gently stimulating the spirituality of the mindless ethereal god, Feng Xue slowly released her magical power, outlining neat and square characters with the help of Xiao Lingdang and Mo Ying.

Compared to rituals, written words carry a stronger symbolic meaning. In a sense, they can be understood as actions that "incite homogenized cognition in the world." For example, the gesture of raising the middle finger is generally considered insulting in most parts of the world. However, in this land where Chinese characters are widely used, the information carried by the characters themselves is the best symbol of rituals.

The magical powers of Yuehua and Feng Xue slowly mixed, flowing through the ritual and into the jade carving of Su'e Huiye under the guidance of the text.

The statue, carved from the finest mutton-fat jade, gleamed with a lustrous sheen, like the full moonlight emanating from it. However, this moonlight did not actually radiate outwards; instead, it followed the ritual set forth by Feng Xue, slowly condensing and finally gathering within the medicine pot held in Su'e Huiye's hands.

It is pure white and translucent, like nectar or dew, and seems to have solidified into a paste, exuding a refreshing fragrance.

"It's done? It doesn't feel quite like what Melo said?" Feng Xue examined the drop of liquid that looked so appealing and couldn't help but frown. Even Melo himself could make several large bowls of Spirit Transformation Liquid to throw into the sea, but Kaguya only had this much? Is it because she's not smart enough?

"Dinner's ready, let's eat something...wait, what's with this Imperial Dew here?!"

Just as Feng Xue was about to put away the drop of "Intelligence Booster," he suddenly heard Liu Yunxi exclaim in surprise. He paused slightly, looked at the jade carving, then at Liu Yunxi, and said inexplicably:

"Imperial Dew?"

“That’s right! What else?” Liu Yunxi looked at the drop of liquid held in the jade carving’s hands, her expression becoming increasingly complicated. Feng Xue seemed to have figured something out and nodded, saying, “How do we preserve this thing?”

"It can't be preserved, or rather, if it could be preserved, there wouldn't be so few demons. Apart from the demon race's inheritance, only on that one night every sixty years, if one happens to encounter and refine the Emperor's Essence, can one awaken intelligence and become a demon. Even if elders want to awaken intelligence in their juniors, they carry the juniors to pick them up, they don't collect the Emperor's Essence. To be honest, I'm quite surprised that your jade carving can hold me!"

Hearing Liu Yunxi say that, Feng Xue waved her hand and said:
"Never mind that, let's eat first."

"okay!"

……

"Why are there so many?" Looking at the food on the table, enough for nearly twenty people, Feng Xue grinned, while Liu Yunxi said matter-of-factly:

"It's New Year's Eve dinner after all, so we should make it a bit more lavish. Anyway, with the food cultivation technique as a foundation, nothing will be wasted. But we should still leave some left over today, you know what I mean by 'May you have abundance every year'?"

"I understand, I understand." Feng Xue nodded, thinking to herself that this snake was indeed taught by the fox from Northeast China, and its way of speaking was exactly the same as those guys from Northeast China in her previous life.

However, as they ate, Feng Xue sensed something was amiss. She narrowed her eyes suspiciously and scrutinized Liu Yunxi from head to toe, saying:

What's the deal with today's dishes?

"?" Liu Yunxi tilted her head upon hearing this. "No, these are all ingredients that the brokers delivered before. I checked them and they're fine."

"That's not what I meant," Feng Xue sighed, picking up a plump slice of meat.

"what is this?"

"Coin-shaped meat!"

"And this?" Feng Xue picked up another slice of brown meat, which was cut into decorative shapes and stir-fried with squid.

"Lamb kidneys!"

Feng Xue picked up another one with a shell...

"Oysters! Freshly picked, so fresh!"

"..." Feng Xue looked at Liu Yunxi, who seemed completely unfazed and unaware of what had happened, and could only shake her head, assuming she was just overthinking it. But she couldn't help but mutter to herself:

"Is this broker crazy? Why is he sending out all this junk?"

But thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem to make any sense. Cultivation itself depletes one's vital energy, so there is indeed a need for ingredients that replenish yang energy.

"Maybe I'm just overthinking it?" Feng Xue thought for a moment, then decided to start eating anyway. Well, the taste was pretty good.

only……

"Um? You came to my room wearing a sheer black cheongsam and stockings, am I overthinking it?"
