Since there's no real danger, he said softly, "Then give it a try."

Since they couldn't go out during this time, Ye Jin simply sat down and began to cultivate on the spot.

Perhaps through this extremely rich spiritual energy, he can successfully condense his golden core.

Yunxi didn't rush to start the mission. Instead, she sat next to him, propped her head up, and observed for a long time.

Nightfall: "??? What are you doing?"

She didn't speak, but interpreted the task word by word.

It seems that simply placing the corresponding spiritual plant on the task table completes the task; there are no other requirements.

In that case...

Yunxi rolled up her sleeves and transformed into a weeder.

They pulled out the spirit plants one by one from the outside in, leaving none behind.

Nightfall: "..."

I have so much to complain about, but I don't know where to begin.

He hesitated for a long time: "So... do you even recognize the spiritual plant the quest mentioned?"

To say she doesn't understand spiritual plants? Impossible.

After all, the harvesting and processing methods for each type of spiritual plant are different.

Judging from her picking technique, she must know about spiritual plants.

But to say she understands spiritual plants is a bit unreasonable.

If you really understand and recognize the words on the task, why not just copy the corresponding words and hand them in? Why go through all this trouble? It's a waste of time.

The small world is full of spiritual energy, wouldn't it be better to use that time to cultivate?

Yunxi raised a finger and shook it: "Too shallow."

"Young man, your vision is too narrow."

She spread her arms wide, facing the empire that was about to belong to her, and raised an eyebrow triumphantly: "The mission only said to hand over three spiritual plants, but it didn't say that other spiritual plants couldn't be picked."

Yunxi firmly believes: "Anything I find is mine."

Nightfall: "..."

Nightfall went to check on the mission.

He questioned the meaning of life: "Is this how all alchemy trials are?"

Of course, a proper alchemist wouldn't do that; everyone here has a sense of shame.

Only a few people who love to take advantage of small things will manage to get everything they want.

Ye Jin said that it was none of his business and he would not interfere with the private behavior of some of his junior sisters, but would just quietly watch them do their thing.

He witnessed firsthand how a field of spiritual plants that delighted Danxiu was uprooted and turned into barren, muddy land that brought tears to the eyes of the farmers.

This is not finished.

After the spiritual plants were harvested, Yunxi began digging in the soil, putting clumps of soil into the mustard seed bag.

Nightfall: "...Why is that?"

"Spiritual plant soil is also very valuable!" She dug a large pit.

Moreover, the spiritual soil here can support so many spiritual plants, so it must be better than the spiritual soil in the spiritual fields of Lingxiao Sect.

Yunxi felt that she was simply a business genius.

"..." After a few seconds of silence, Ye Jin finally couldn't bear to watch any longer, and then...

He shared a small shovel with her.

With the new tools, the children no longer need to dig the ground with a kitchen knife; their efficiency has doubled.

They dug for a whole day.

The girl climbed out of a clean, square pit with satisfaction, found three task plants among the piles of spiritual plants, and placed them on the platform according to the required quantity.

Sure enough, the task only required her to hand over the corresponding spiritual plants; it didn't matter how many she dug up.

The blue screen suddenly turned green, and I passed the first level.

As a reward, a continuous stream of spiritual energy flowed from the top of her head into her internal organs.

As the spiritual energy spreads

With a loud "boom".

Two loud "booms".

As energy surged in, the small barrier within her body was instantly broken through, and her sea of ​​consciousness seemed to widen slightly.

Ye Jin raised an eyebrow: "You've broken through to a higher realm?"

And it's not just one layer.

With just her first task, she directly broke through from the early stage of Qi Refining to the late stage.

Yunxi was originally only in the early stage of Qi Refining, and her ability to absorb spiritual energy was very weak, as if she had difficulty breathing. However, after breaking through two layers of barriers, she felt her meridians expand and her breathing became much smoother.

"Rumble..."

A series of earthquakes occurred, and green light emanated from the ground.

It wasn't some terrifying green.

Yunxi ran quickly to Ye Jin's side, feeling that the green light was more like it was filled with vitality.

"That is..."

She paused for a moment, then realized that most of the mist in the small space had dissipated.

The newly revealed area was an even larger field of spiritual plants.

"!!!"

The second task is to find nine corresponding spiritual plants in the new spiritual plant field.

"Third Senior Brother, did you see that?" Yunxi asked.

He asked, puzzled, "What?"

The girl's eyes sparkled, as if she had won a million in the lottery, gone to redeem her prize while scanning a shared bike, and then unexpectedly got hit by a car but was unharmed while the owner paid her a hundred million in compensation.

Yunxi: "Small coins all over the ground."

Nightfall: "..."

Under Ye Jin's complicated gaze, she rolled up her sleeves once again to pick up the money.

But this time, after about an hour of searching, Yunxi returned covered in dust and dirt.

Nightfall asked, "What's wrong?"

The girl's face darkened, and she looked distressed: "Third Senior Brother, there is a very serious problem that concerns our lives."

"Um?"

He tried to guess: "Are there any demonic beasts over there?" It's normal for there to be demonic beasts in a lineage, but the demonic beasts in a pill cultivation lineage shouldn't be too strong.

Nightfall said he could help if needed.

Yunxi shook her head: "It's more serious than that."

What kind of problem would that be?

Are medicinal plants poisonous?

Are there some that she doesn't recognize, making them difficult to pick? Is she unable to complete the task?

Nightfall considered many possible answers.

Unexpectedly, his eccentric junior sister frowned and said with a deep sense of resentment, "I'm hungry."

Nightfall: "..."

……

The mist in this small world can be explored, but there are no treasures inside, not even a single monster.

Night Ember flew a short distance on his sword, picked up a few fish in a pond, and chopped some branches in a small forest.

While cultivating, he also took on the role of a cold-faced doting father, starting to grill fish for his junior sister...

He skillfully prepared the fish and placed it on the fire.

It was so elegant, it didn't look like they were grilling fish; it looked more like they were preparing a Michelin-starred meal.

Hunger wasn't a big deal for Ye Jin, but it was fatal for Yun hope.

Only after establishing a foundation can one abstain from grains. Since she hasn't activated that skill yet, she needs to eat.

As Ye Jin grilled the fish, he let out a long sigh.

He actually had a day when he had to raise a child.

If Qi Jue were here, that would be great.

At times like these, Ye Jin would think of his overly delicate and timid fourth junior brother.

Qi Jue is a foodie; his mustard seed bag is full of delicious food.

Unlike them,

He and Yunxi searched their entire bag and found only a steamed bun and a small portion of baked flatbread they had bought in the city center the day before. They needed to survive on these things for thirty days...

It would be more practical to just hang yourself.

The children couldn't eat the adults' food, so they could only squat by the fire and slurp as they watched the grilled fish.

As her stomach rumbled, she didn't forget to politely thank him, her eyes curving into beautiful crescents: "Third Senior Brother, thank you, you're so kind."

Yunxi clasped her hands together and sincerely wished, "You will definitely have a complete corpse in the future."

"..."

The boy raised his eyes, a strange urge to laugh creeping onto his face: "Who taught you to give blessings like that?"

The villain, referred to as the Great Demon in the book, seems to have a very gentle side.

The grilled fish has a crispy skin and tender, delicate flesh; it's so delicious you'll want to lick your tongue.

It's clear that no seasoning was added, so I don't know how he made it so delicious.

Ignoring the heat, Yunxi stuffed it into her mouth and mumbled a thumbs-up in praise: "Third Senior Brother, whoever marries you will be very lucky."

Ye Jin didn't eat a bite, lazily raised his eyes, a faint smile on his face: "My spiritual root is flawed, and I'm easily irritable. Whoever marries me will probably die hundreds of years earlier."

He was stunned after saying that.

Nightfall considers himself to be someone who dislikes trouble.

Because of the negative traits of his spiritual root, he often became inexplicably irritable. To outsiders, he appeared to have a terrible temper and was prone to anger. Few people would joke with him, let alone like she did.

They said things like "after death, you'll have a complete body..."

Saying things like, "Whoever marries you..."

If anyone else said that, Nightfall would definitely burn their hair off.

For some reason, when my junior sister said those things...

Damn it, why isn't he angry?

"Third Senior Brother..."

Yunxi leaned her head closer, her eyes crinkling with a smile: "I think you're very gentle."

He pursed his lips, his pupils lingering for a moment, then turned his gaze to the sky: "Eat quickly, and then continue with the mission."
