136: Chapter 136: Grade A Cave

Chen Jiancang smiled and thanked him, saying, "Thank you for your guidance, Uncle-Clan."

"Hahaha, good, Jiancang, your talent in Alchemy is extremely outstanding. In the future, you have the potential to advance to Second-Order Alchemist. When that time comes, don't forget to help your Uncle-Clan refine a few batches of pills!" Chen Youhe laughed heartily and joked.

"Uncle-Clan, as members of the Chen Family, if I truly advance to Second-Order Alchemist in the future, I will naturally not make excuses or refuse." Chen Jiancang cupped his hands. He had seen Chen Youhe's enthusiasm today and guessed that Chen Youhe's purpose was nothing more than valuing his Alchemy talent.

He didn't mind refining a few batches of pills for the other party when he was capable.

Bidding farewell to Chen Youhe, Chen Jiancang left the Mission Hall under the envious gazes of many Chen Family members and headed towards the location of the Cave Dwelling area.

"Jiancang Ge, are we going to live in the Main Spiritual Vein from now on?" Chen Jianyun's face showed a look of joy. She couldn't quite believe it was true.

Because no Chen Family member was unwilling to settle in the Main Spiritual Vein. The spiritual energy here was rich, and even Mortals without Spiritual Roots, if they could live here for a long time, would have a much longer lifespan than others.

And the most important point was that in places with rich spiritual energy, the probability of their descendants being born with Spiritual Roots and the quality of their Spiritual Roots were much higher than in other places.

Chen Jiancang smiled and nodded. The Xiao Yun Mountain Market was only a First Order High Grade Spiritual Vein. Ever since he broke through to Qi Refining Ninth Layer, he had already sensed that the spiritual energy concentration there was subtly insufficient.

It was also because he didn't need to refine spiritual energy to improve his cultivation, otherwise the spiritual energy concentration of the Little Cloud Mountain Spiritual Vein would limit his cultivation speed.

Following the instructions of the Cave Dwelling Formation token, Chen Jiancang found the Level A Cave Dwelling allocated to him.

Spiritual Vein Cave Dwellings were areas suitable for habitation excavated by Cultivators on the mountain body where the Spiritual Vein was located, according to the direction of the Spiritual Vein. However, a Cave Dwelling was not just a cave, but had complete and comfortable living spaces.

"Hexa-Grade Ren Character Thirty-Five Cave Dwelling."

Chen Jiancang lightly shook the Formation token in his hand, opening the Restrictions of the Cave Dwelling Formation.

A gray-blue stone door came into view, with two Chi-headed stone ring handles embedded on the stone door. Chen Jiancang stepped forward and gently pushed open the stone door.

"Wow..." Chen Jianyun saw the layout inside the Cave Dwelling at a glance and couldn't help but let out a gasp of surprise.

Behind the stone door was a courtyard about an acre in size. Night-shining pearls were embedded in the walls around the courtyard, emitting a soft and bright light. The entire courtyard was like daytime, without a single dark corner.

Above the courtyard was a patio about one zhang square. Sunlight shone down from the patio, falling on the neatly planned Spirit Medicine fields.

Around the Spirit Medicine fields were rooms built against the mountain wall, connected to the Formation, drawing the rich spiritual energy of the Main Spiritual Vein into the rooms.

Such a layout was undeniably luxurious and exquisite, no wonder Chen Jianyun lost her composure and exclaimed.

Chen Jiancang had also seen such a luxuriously arranged Cave Dwelling for the first time. Compared to the place he had lived before, it was like the difference between clouds and mud.

Chen Jiancang said with satisfaction, "From now on, this will be our home."

Chen Jiancang planned to move to the Main Spiritual Vein after getting married to live there. As for the Spirit Field on Xiao Yun Mountain, he didn't plan to give it up, but he would have to fly back and forth for an hour every day.

Fortunately, the Chen Family had now rewarded him with a First Order High Grade spiritual boat, which could greatly reduce the time cost of commuting between the two places.

After all the spirit plants on Xiao Yun Mountain were harvested, he could purchase Spirit Fields here in the Main Spiritual Vein and continue planting.

Just then, a message came from the Restrictions outside the Cave Dwelling. Chen Jiancang picked up the Formation token and waved his hand, and a cloud of mist formed a mirror of water mist.

A strange face appeared on the mirror.

Chen Jiancang frowned slightly, but he didn't ignore it. He walked to the Formation barrier and removed the Cave Dwelling barrier, revealing the stone door passage.

"Fellow Daoist, it's a pleasure to meet you. I am He Xiao, a tenant of the adjacent Cave Dwelling. Today, seeing that this Cave Dwelling has new occupants, I have taken the liberty to visit. I hope you don't mind." He Xiao said as he surveyed the layout of the Cave Dwelling. His actions made people feel a little uncomfortable.

It was as if the purpose of this person's visit was not to visit, but to investigate the layout of this Cave Dwelling.

Chen Jiancang's expression was slightly displeased, but out of politeness, he still returned the greeting, saying, "My name is Chen Jiancang, a newly promoted Core Disciple of the Chen Family."

Chen Jiancang directly stated his identity. Regardless of the other party's purpose in coming, as long as he informed the other party of his identity, even if he had any bad intentions, he would have some scruples.

Chen Jiancang had just taken over this Level A Cave Dwelling and didn't know the situation of the surrounding neighbors. Faced with He Xiao's impolite behavior, he couldn't just turn hostile.

"Ah, so it's a Genius from the Chen Family's Upper Sect. Then I'm really lucky to be your neighbor. I came today with no particular business, just wanted to get to know each other." He Xiao explained with a smile. His gaze also retracted a little, but his eyes still couldn't help but glance elsewhere.

Chen Jiancang now sensed that there was a hint of falseness and reluctance in He Xiao's smile, and he had already guessed that this person's purpose was probably not just this.

"Fellow Daoist He, I still have many things to do here, you see..." Chen Jiancang was too lazy to deal with this person and directly implicitly stated his intention.

No matter what this person's purpose was, he didn't want to interact with him.

"Good, good, you go ahead and get busy. When I have time another day, I'll come visit again." He Xiao smiled and turned to leave.

After He Xiao left the Cave Dwelling, Chen Jianyun walked to Chen Jiancang's side and said softly, "Jiancang Ge, this person has ill intentions. He was constantly observing the layout of our Cave Dwelling just now. If you hadn't revealed your identity as a Core Disciple of the Chen Family just now, he..."

Chen Jiancang nodded and said, "Yes, this person came with another purpose. From now on, we will keep our distance from him. This is the Main Spiritual Vein after all. Even if he has impure intentions, he wouldn't dare to scheme against a member of my Chen Family. I'll ask Uncle-Clan Youhe about this person's information later. If he truly has other plans, we can also take the initiative and prevent potential hidden dangers."

Even Chen Jianyun could see this person's intentions, let alone Chen Jiancang.

At this moment, He Xiao walked out of the Cave Dwelling, the false smile on his face instantly vanished, and his expression also became gloomy.

"They actually rewarded this Cave Dwelling to a Core Disciple of the Chen Family. I said I had been trying every possible way to rent this Cave Dwelling, but those Chen Family members were unwilling."

"Where did that oldFushigura the treasure?" He Xiao gritted his teeth and said bitterly. All his anger and unwillingness felt like they could erupt at any moment.

Chen Jiancang didn't know He Xiao's purpose. He took Chen Jianyun and meticulously cleaned the Cave Dwelling, sprinkling water on the floor, wiping the tables with a clean cloth, and tidying it up again.

Chen Jiancang was getting married to Meng Qingwan the day after tomorrow. He now only had less than a day and a half, so naturally, he couldn't delay.

After tidying up the Cave Dwelling, Chen Jiancang took Chen Jianyun to the Market.
