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

Chen Huai'an was furious but dared not speak out when the spiritual spring water was stolen.

His identity was already somewhat sensitive, and he worried that if things escalated, he wouldn't get any benefit from it.

Seeing that Chen Huai'an was sensible and had snatched what he wanted, Zhang Hu did not continue to make things difficult for him.

Right now, he wanted to see what level the spiritual spring was effective at.

If it works well, he will continue to target Chen Huai'an and interrogate him about where he obtained the spiritual spring water.

He doesn't want to waste time on something that doesn't work well.

When Chen Huai'an saw Zhang Hu take a sip of the spiritual spring water from the jar, he secretly vowed that he would make the other party pay double for stealing the spiritual spring water.

Chen Huai'an did not linger in the cafeteria, his face dark the entire time, and went straight back to his residence.

Once he reached the first level of body tempering, he was unable to mount any resistance. If he didn't want to be bullied, he had to become stronger.

The cultivation world is an existence that countless mortals would do anything to get close to. However, through the observations of the past two days, it seems that the cultivation world is just like the secular world. Wherever there are people, there is a world of intrigue and scheming.

If you have the ability and the connections, you can do whatever you want.

"Wang Tong, you keep an eye on this kid. If he goes anywhere in the future, let me know immediately." Zhang Hu took a sip of the spiritual spring water, and his expression changed instantly.

This spiritual spring water is of very high quality and actually helps his cultivation. Although it doesn't immediately boost his cultivation, he feels completely comfortable after drinking it, and drinking it regularly is beneficial to his health.

Previously, he had his eye on the new handyman's belongings and wanted to take them for himself. Now, he was completely greedy for the spiritual spring water that Chen Huai'an had taken out. If he could get one jar, he might be able to get more.

When Chen Huai'an returned to his residence, his back was soaked with sweat.

The principle of not flaunting wealth applies not only in the secular world but also in the world of cultivation.

Chen Huai'an made a fatal mistake: he shouldn't have taken out the spiritual spring water without understanding the situation.

Having drunk the spiritual spring water and knowing its wondrous uses, Zhang Hu would certainly not let the matter rest.

The opponent is a powerful expert at the first level of the Body Refinement Realm. He hasn't even entered the Body Refinement Realm yet, so he's definitely no match for the opponent. If the opponent retaliates, what will he use to defend himself?

Chen Huai'an was truly annoyed at this moment, and also felt a bit regretful.

Fortunately, he didn't bring his purple gourd to the cafeteria today. If he had, the other party probably would have snatched it away.

"What should I do? I can't sell this spirit spring water. Without spirit stones, I can't get body-refining pills. My cultivation will definitely stagnate. How can I stand out in the entrance test?" Chen Huai'an was a little irritable.

Chen Huai'an didn't want to do those menial tasks on the Miscellaneous Service Peak, otherwise, he wouldn't have any time to cultivate.

"Hey, isn't there an empty plot of land in that gourd space? Can I grow some medicinal herbs there? Since I can't buy them, I'll just grow them myself." In Huai Shu Village, although Chen Huai'an was a scholar, he had worked in the fields and done farm work to make a living. Although he was provided with food and lodging as long as he worked at the Miscellaneous Service Peak, he still wanted to grow some land to generate income for himself.

The cultivation world needs cultivation resources, and these resources are medicinal herbs. Some aged medicinal herbs are called spiritual herbs.

If you plant some medicinal herbs in the space, you can use them to improve your cultivation level when the time comes.

But where can we find these medicinal herb seeds?

Furthermore, Chen Huai'an's current idea is still in the theoretical stage and cannot be taken seriously.

A single coin can stump even a hero, and in the world of cultivation, a single spirit stone can similarly stump a hero.

"Make money, make money, how do I make money?" Chen Huai'an paced back and forth in the room.

By chance, Chen Huai'an entered the world of cultivation, but the world of cultivation is a place where one either progresses or regresses, and it is even more cruel than the secular world.

The law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak, is vividly demonstrated here.

What Chen Huai'an didn't know was that while he disliked the slow cultivation speed of the spiritual spring water, for ordinary, unconnected disciples, anything that could increase their cultivation was a treasure they desperately wanted.

Chen Huai'an couldn't find a solution, so all he could do was take it one step at a time.

He could think of cultivation resources slowly. With the aid of spiritual spring water, his cultivation level, while not progressing by leaps and bounds, improved every day.

The next day, Chen Huai'an went to the canteen for a meal, just like usual. However, occasionally someone would talk about Zhang Hu's domineering behavior and bullying of newcomers on the miscellaneous servants' peak. Many of the older staff were used to this.

On Miscellaneous Service Peak, there are not only bullies like Zhang Hu, but also others. They are all veterans who have been on Miscellaneous Service Peak for several years. Recently, their targets have been the newcomers who have just joined the sect.

The cultivation resources they didn't consume were all stolen.

This was something Chen Huai'an hadn't expected.

And the theft of cultivation resources has been happening frequently during this period.

"Damn it, they're robbing us newbies' cultivation resources! Isn't anyone going to do anything about it?" Chen Huai'an said to a fellow disciple beside him.

"Manage? How can we manage them? The disciples of our Miscellaneous Service Peak are called disciples, but they are slaves trained by the sect, like raising poisonous insects. You can become a formal outer disciple if you prove you have value. If you are useless, you can only be exploited and bullied. Do you understand the law of the jungle? If you are strong, you can take it back." Zhou Qiang looked at Chen Huai'an and glanced at him as if he were an idiot, then said indifferently.

"Don't think that entering a cultivation sect will make you a superior person. Everything is based on strength. Whoever has the bigger fist is right."

The sects they came into contact with were just the tip of the iceberg.

Mortals are like ants in their eyes, and these low-level cultivators are like ants in the eyes of those high-level cultivators.

There are thousands of people on a single miscellaneous service peak, and Qingyun Sect has more than a dozen such miscellaneous service peaks.

Even though the items were stolen, as long as you're alive, you have a chance to defy fate; if you die, you'll have nothing.

To gain the sect's protection, you must improve your status within the sect and prove that you have value. Only then will you receive the sect's protection.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior brother. I have learned a lot." Chen Huai'an was not discouraged and thanked the other party with a smile.

Having learned the relevant rules, Chen Huai'an had to be even more careful when moving around the sect.

"Something's not right, there's someone there." Chen Huai'an went down the mountain to get water, and there were other people coming down the mountain, but he noticed a figure hanging far behind him.

"Damn it, even being so careful, I was still targeted. I wonder who this person is and why they are following me. Could it be because of that spiritual spring water?" Chen Huai'an frowned.

If he can produce one jar of spiritual spring water, he can produce a second jar. Not only would he think this way, but everyone else would think the same way.

"Splash!" Without thinking twice, Chen Huai'an took off his clothes, leaving only his underwear, and jumped into the stream at the foot of the mountain.

The gourd must continue to be filled with water so that there will be a constant supply of spiritual spring water for cultivation every day. If anyone discovers the secret of his purple gourd, he will probably lose his life.

He could secretly fill a gourd with water while taking a bath without anyone noticing.

After soaking in the water for half an hour, Chen Huai'an returned to his residence.

On his way back, he became increasingly certain that he was being watched, that person was haunting him relentlessly, and he dared not make any move.

Back at his lodgings, before he could even catch his breath, he found the place ransacked, with toiletries and personal items scattered all over the floor.

"Damn it, this house has been burgled."
