You think I have mixed spiritual roots? I became an immortal through a spirit gourd, so what are you

"A mixed spiritual root of five elements, this cultivation speed is even faster than that of a top-grade single spiritual root. This guy must have a secret." Zhang Biao, a master ranked one hundredth on the Spiritual Talent Ranking, also sensed that Chen Huai'an had a secret.

In fact, everyone has secrets.

Just like Chen Huai'an, when he prepared to participate in the challenge for menial disciples, it wasn't a rash decision. Once the list was on some people's desks, his secret could no longer be kept.

Just like the deaths of Zhang Long and Zhang Hu, anyone with eyes could see that their deaths were related to him.

But because he signed up for the competition, the Zhang family, who wanted to kill him, wouldn't bother him behind his back. They could openly use the rules to destroy him, which was exactly the result Chen Huai'an wanted to see.

Enemies in the open are not scary; what is scary are enemies in the shadows. They are like venomous snakes, ready to kill you at any moment, and you never know when they will attack you.

As the saying goes, it's easy to dodge a spear in the open but hard to guard against an arrow in the dark; that's the point.

Now he wants to bring his hidden troubles and crises into the open.

After you register, an initial ranking will be determined one month later based on the registered miscellaneous disciples. If you want to get a high ranking and enjoy better treatment, you can only keep challenging stronger opponents and leave your name on the Spirit Ranking.

Chen Huai'an returned to his residence and began his daily task of fetching water.

Now, he can fetch water very quickly, and while he's not the fastest at completing tasks, he's not the slowest either. This gives him a lot more time for cultivation.

With ample cultivation resources, his cultivation level would improve even without cultivation, simply by eating spirit rice made from spirit grains and carrying water.

"The food today is so delicious, I feel like I'm about to break through." Liu Qiaogui and Chen Huai'an went to the canteen for a meal. Manager Wu said that the sect was giving these menial disciples a benefit today, improving their meals for the day, and that they had to come.

During this meal, Liu Qiaogui showed signs of breaking through to a higher level.

Even Chen Huai'an noticed that today's meal was somewhat different from the usual ones. Although the rice was not as good as the top-grade spiritual grain in Chen Huai'an's space, it was still spiritual rice made from spiritual grain. In particular, the dishes were not like the dishes they usually ate, which were just a big pot of mixed stews. However, he felt warm and cozy in his stomach after eating them, and he could vaguely see signs of a breakthrough.

Back at their lodgings, the disciples who had eaten lunch all chose to go into seclusion for cultivation.

Through Manager Wu, Chen Huai'an learned exactly how the sect distributed benefits.

Today their meals have improved. They are eating spiritual food, with the rice being low-grade spiritual grain and the side dishes being spiritual food, which is meat from spiritual birds raised by the outer disciples. Even in the outer sect, they can't eat this kind of food every day.

The reason why these outer sect servant disciples are able to enjoy this is because the servant disciple challenge of the Servants Peak is about to begin. In order to improve the strength of these servant disciples and select a group of disciples to focus on and cultivate, the sect uses spirit grains and spirit birds as ingredients in their meals.

This series of actions is routine. With the help of this opportunity, some disciples, after accumulating experience over this period, are able to quickly break through their bottlenecks.

"Brother Chen, I've broken through! I'm now at the second level of Body Refinement. It won't be long before I break through to the middle stage of Body Refinement!" Liu Qiaogui came out of the room, dancing with joy.

"Brother Chen, I've broken through! Have you?"

"Thanks to the benefits provided by the sect, I managed to break through," Chen Huai'an said with a smile.

Chen Huai'an's aptitude was too poor. Although this spiritual meal was very good, it was not enough to help him break through to the seventh level of the late stage of Body Refinement. He estimated that if he could eat such spiritual meals every day, he would be able to break through to the seventh level of the late stage of Body Refinement in just a few days. He couldn't help but sigh.

"The food today is really good. If I could eat like this every day, it would only be a matter of time before I break through to the late stage of Body Refinement."

"Brother Chen, you're dreaming! I've heard that even outer disciples can't eat such spiritual food every day. For us menial disciples, having it once a month is a blessing. Especially this spirit bird, which can replenish our qi and blood and help us break through. If it weren't for the upcoming challenge for menial disciples, the sect wouldn't be giving us such good benefits," Liu Qiaogui said with a smile.

Even such a spiritual meal is a considerable drain on the sect.

Especially spirit birds, those things are very difficult to raise. Only when the sect's hunting team has a major harvest will these menial disciples be able to have a taste of soup.

Even outer disciples may not be able to enjoy spirit birds often; they need spirit stones to do so.

"How do we obtain this spirit bird?" Chen Huai'an asked curiously.

"These spirit birds are actually bred by the sect, but the breeding process is extremely demanding. Ordinary mortal objects simply cannot be used to raise spirit birds; only spiritual objects with spiritual energy can be used. Moreover, just because they are raised doesn't mean they are spirit birds. Our Miscellaneous Service Peak also has miscellaneous service disciples responsible for breeding. They are responsible for raising five-colored chickens. If these five-colored chickens are raised well, there is a certain chance of raising a five-colored golden pheasant, which is the spirit bird we eat." Liu Qiaogui, who was quite knowledgeable about the affairs of the Miscellaneous Service Peak, explained to Chen Huai'an.

Through Liu Qiaogui, Chen Huai'an also learned how the sect obtained its spiritual food ingredients: some were raised by the sect, and some were hunted from monsters in the Qingyun Mountains.

Monster meat is also rich in spiritual energy, making it even more superior than spirit bird meat. Such meat is generally provided to outer and inner disciples, and it is not unlimited but supplied in fixed quantities on a regular basis.

"Brother Chen, let me tell you, if I had a choice, I would choose to do menial tasks at the spirit bird farm. I've heard that if you're lucky, you can even get eggs at the farm. These eggs might be spirit bird eggs, which are incredibly nutritious. One spirit bird egg is even more effective than a low-grade body-refining pill," Liu Qiaogui said with a longing expression.

Although you can drink spiritual spring water from the canteen, it's definitely not as good as spiritual bird eggs. If you're lucky, you can eat chicken meat, let alone eggs.

The feed for the five-colored chickens is not spirit grain, but the husks that have been removed from the spirit grain.

In Chen Huai'an's space, he has a lot of spirit grain husks for raising spirit birds, and they are even top-grade spirit grain husks. If he uses these things to raise spirit birds, he will have an endless supply of meat.

Chen Huai'an has cultivation resources, but he can only monetize them after leaving the sect, and there are great risks involved. Since he can't leave the sect now, he's thinking about how to become self-sufficient.

Once Chen Huai'an had the idea of ​​raising spirit birds, he couldn't stop.

In Huai Shu Village, he has done everything from farming to raising livestock.

"How can we get these spirit eggs?" Chen Huai'an asked Liu Qiaogui.

"Brother Chen, if you want this, you can trade it with the farm's handymen disciples." Liu Qiaogui smiled as well.

Chen Huai'an thanked Liu Qiaogui, and then he prepared to get to work.

Raising livestock in the backyard of the canteen is not very practical. He thought it would be safer to raise them in his own space, without worrying about being targeted by malicious people, and it would also be more convenient.

This can't be done now, but it can be arranged later.

"Kid, let's see where you hide this time." Just as Chen Huai'an was carrying a carrying pole and buckets down the mountain to fetch water, Old Man Li, who had been watching him for days, finally found an opportunity and quietly followed him.
