Vampire Cultivation Notes

Li Jieqing still complained that there wasn't enough space for planting.

Things are different now than they were back when people were unwilling to rent spirit fields; scarcity makes things valuable.

So, relying on the power of the Azure Water Sword, Li Jieqing broke through the glazed walls around the underground hall, which had been burned open, and put the excavated soil into storage bags to open up new land for expanding the spiritual rice planting area.

"I not only lack a cultivation technique, but also a spell or artifact to conceal my face. Such treasures have always been the secrets of rogue cultivators, and are difficult for others to obtain."

"But once I successfully cultivate the land and display such vast supernatural powers, things will be completely different!"

"Sooner or later, we can use this essential spiritual rice to exchange for a satisfactory treasure. If anyone refuses, they will have to abandon the path of immortality and end up destitute in the mortal world, eating delicacies and rare foods. They will be looked down upon by their fellow cultivators for not even being able to afford rice..."

The thought that he might one day become the master of this fallen Taipingfang by distributing spiritual rice made Li Jieqing work even harder.

It doesn't matter if I've only worked in Danfang before and have never farmed in Lingtian.

There is a second-grade Ruyi Green Lotus here. The Ruyi Sect records its supernatural power to manipulate creation, which can accomplish what is impossible and prevent plants and spiritual plants that cannot grow from growing in the surrounding area.

They split the soil on one side and melt the mud on the other.

The benefits of having a mixed five-elemental spiritual root came to fruition. Li Jieqing casually used fire magic to burn out several stone pillars to support the underground space and prevent it from collapsing after the space expanded. For a time, he worked with great enthusiasm.

Just then, the gate to the cave suddenly rang.

A group of people were triggering the magic circle and calling out.

It was someone I knew.

Li Jieqing stopped what he was doing, used his blood-seeking technique to probe, frowned slightly, and rolled up his sleeve.

The newcomer could not be ignored, so he immediately put the Green Water Sword on his back with one hand and the bronze mirror in the other and came to the ground.

Upon opening the door, they found Yu Er from the "Yu Brothers" duo, along with Old Liu and Scorpion Lady.

Apart from these three, there was no one else around.

Li Jieqing then put away the bronze mirror, closed the cave door, and went straight out.

"The three of you have come together; what brings you here?"

As he spoke, Li Jieqing walked outside, opened his storage bag, and dumped the fresh soil he had dug out on the spot.

Old Liu glanced at him and said with a smile, "So you've been busy, sir. Do you need any help? I'm very good at this kind of work."

"Take your time, there's no rush."

Li Jieqing dumped the fresh soil and turned back.

Old Liu nodded upon seeing this, and then said cautiously with a smile, "It is like this, Scorpion Lady, the Yu brothers, and Zhou Lei Wang and a few others have a great opportunity they want to seize, but they are afraid that they are not capable of doing so, so they asked me to come and talk to you, Ancestor, and ask you to help them out. They will then divide the treasures they obtain equally."

"When there's trouble, I always talk to my ancestor; when there's no trouble, I always talk to my fellow Daoists. I never accept any invitations to go out."

Li Jieqing waved his hand, his refusal coming out directly.

Although times have changed and he no longer cares about ordinary martial arts techniques, he still prefers to be cautious to avoid making mistakes.

Besides, what appeal do ordinary treasures have for him nowadays?

It's better to cultivate a few acres of land and wait to reap the benefits.

"Fellow Daoist, aren't you interested in the treasures of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion?"

When Old Liu saw Li Jieqing about to go inside, he quickly called out to him.

Li Jieqing paused, stopping in his tracks.

"Wanbaoge?"

The complete version of "The Secret Record of Blood Heart Freedom" is there.

"It was Wanbaoge!" Old Liu explained, "Ever since the market was destroyed that day, after the Fairy of Splendor of Wanbaoge was defeated in her duel with the demon tiger, she disappeared without a trace. She must have been eaten by that demon tiger. Later, many of our fellow cultivators saw this and joined forces to break into Wanbaoge. Just when they were about to succeed, they were caught off guard and the people inside ran out with their goods. They only managed to pick up some junk."

Old Liu quickly recounted the past, then said, "Fortunately, in the past few days, we have discovered the hiding place of the remnants of Wanbaoge. We thought of calling on fellow cultivators to gather together, eliminate the remnants of Wanbaoge who have been exploiting people in the streets, and divide the spoils equally. This would be a way to restore order to the world."

His words were quite impassioned and passionate.

The Scorpion Lady chuckled from the side, "Hmph, that's absolutely true. It's precisely because this opportunity is so rare that I'm not holding a grudge about what happened before, and I've come to call you."

Yu Er's expression was already impatient: "Go there and meet the other comrades who have gathered here, and you'll know that we haven't been deceiving you! When you attack the remnants' dwellings, remember to approach stealthily. Don't release the spirit talisman thunder pills first; don't let the treasure escape again!"

Wanbaoge is wealthy.

Those magical artifacts that used to hang on the red beams and pillars must have made countless rogue cultivators drool, but unfortunately, no one dared to act rashly because of the power of the Foundation Establishment Fairy.

In other words, the market town has now collapsed, creating an opportunity amidst the chaos.

Master Baozhou's disciples have already been wiped out, and Fairy Shecai's disciples will soon be wiped out as well. Once the profiteering class is completely eliminated, who knows how many rogue cultivators will seize the opportunity to rise up in this chaos.

Li Jieqing always kept to himself, so he saw things more clearly. Seeing the excitement of the group, he started thinking about things further ahead.

"Say something! Ancestor Zhao! Ancestor Fengxin!"

The three were still anxiously urging him to agree.

Li Jieqing came to his senses, and a thought struck him, but he spoke with righteous indignation.

"Isn't this just robbery?!"

"We, as practitioners of spiritual cultivation, have always acted uprightly and honestly. How could we do such a thing as kicking someone when they're down? I, your ancestor, am truly ashamed to be associated with you. I will not go!"

...What is this guy saying?

In his moment of panic, Yu Er suddenly felt as if the person who had forcibly seized his brother's cave a few days ago was not the man surnamed Zhao standing before him.

Seeing Li Jieqing turn and leave, about to enter the room.

The Scorpion Lady hurriedly said, "You don't want the cultivation method for breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage?! The Myriad Treasures Pavilion must have such a method!"

Li Jieqing listened with disdain.

He not only knew how to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, but also had several superior cultivation techniques as options, which dazzled him.

However, this is something that should not be exposed, lest it attract unwanted attention.

Li Jieqing stopped and turned around to say something.

"The method to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage is certainly necessary, but there's no need to rush. I've heard that most of my fellow alchemists have died, leaving only me here. This shows that even if you obtain the method, you'll still need to come to my sect someday for alchemy cultivation."

"If that's the case, why should I risk my life with you now?"

After saying this, Li Jieqing raised an eyebrow and smiled at the Scorpion Lady, whose expression was frozen, then went inside, closed the cave door, and saw his guest off.

The three people outside the door looked at each other, and couldn't help but feel annoyed.

"This guy surnamed Zhao talks so grandly, but it turns out he's just relying on his alchemy skills to think he can get away with anything later?!"

"Bah! So what if he can refine pills! I should have reported this bastard for illegally operating a furnace back then!"

"I really did see something dirty when I went out..."

After their anger subsided, the group realized something even more tragic: they might actually have to come here again in the future.

Thinking of this, the three of them fell silent again.
