36: The mission of guarding the spirit field is over.

Although fifteen mu of land were laid out, the two of them finished harvesting in an instant.

Liu Ru Shi said easily,

“Now all that’s left is to prune the trees, and we’re done.”

Tang Tian also didn’t know the purpose of those trees… In fact, those trees were used as fuel…

Beast Fire was still not enough for Chi Daizi to perform Alchemy; the Medicinal Pills Chi Daizi refined consumed a lot.

Seeing the surrounding Spirit Medicine growing vigorously, Tang Tian left satisfied. The wild boar surprisingly didn't come out today—

It was probably too embarrassed…

Liu Ru Shi was still calling it in the forest, so it seemed her mischievous intent hadn't died.

Despite this, the two of them were very cautious.

However, since that Azure Peng didn't come out, the two of them grew bolder.

At this rate, they could finish in three days…

The two of them still left before noon.

For three days straight, the wild boar was too embarrassed to come out, and Liu Ru Shi felt a bit disappointed.

After confirming that no trees around them needed pruning, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief. Three days of hard work… finally over…

Tang Tian also, in accordance with his vow, took down a large string of vulture meat and ate it.

Those vultures now trembled in fear just by looking at Tang Tian.

Of course, Tang Tian also trembled in fear when he saw the Black Feather Lion Eagle Vulture.

However, after the attack Formation set up by Chi Daizi was triggered last time,

All creatures had become much more restrained, and the Xiao Feng Qing Peng hadn't appeared for the past few days.

After plucking the feathers from the last vulture in front of him, Tang Tian finished eating happily and left.

When Tang Tian and Liu Ru Shi returned to the courtyard, they looked back at the Medicine Garden with a sigh.

The next time they returned to the Medicine Garden… it would be four or five months later.

Whether they could even live for four or five months by then was also a question…

First Senior Brother Red River Child transmitted his voice, saying,

“You’re quite fast. You actually finished so quickly… Then for the remaining few days, teach Seventh Junior Brother and Eighth Junior Brother, Crimson Guzi and Crimson Bozi… Make sure they learn it.”

This was actually just a compliment, as the First Senior Brother could finish guarding the Spirit Garden in two days.

Tang Tian: …

Alright, alright, you don’t want to do it and want me to, huh?

Crimson Guzi and Crimson Bozi were pulled out by First Senior Brother’s paper figures.

They had consumed too many Medicinal Pills, and their Qi was withered.

However, their state was very similar to Liu Ru Shi’s at the time, so their cultivation would likely rebound.

The two of them said,

“Fifth Senior Brother, Sixth Senior Sister.”

The two of them hurriedly bowed to Tang Tian.

Tang Tian nodded and said,

“Mm… I am here by First Senior Brother’s command to teach you Cultivation Techniques…”

After all, they might not live for the thirty days before being killed by Chi Daizi; they might die in fifteen days.

But Tang Tian taught them meticulously.

Tang Tian taught two Cultivation Techniques, and Liu Ru Shi taught two Cultivation Techniques.

These two learned very quickly… After all, they were found by Chi Liuzi after half a month of searching, and they learned it in less than three hours…

Tang Tian asked,

“How did you two come here?”

Seventh Junior Brother Crimson Guzi answered with a vacant stare,

“Everyone in the village died, they all died.”

Tang Tian stopped asking and said,

“Cultivate well.”

After Tang Tian encouraged them… he left with Liu Ru Shi…

As soon as Tang Tian left, he was called by First Senior Brother.

First Senior Brother had actually returned!

First Senior Brother said,

“Junior Brother, this is your Fourth-Rank Formation, Sha Xue Yu Hun Formation.”

Tang Tian said,

“Thank you, Senior Brother.”

Tang Tian was about to perform a grand bow, but First Senior Brother stopped him.

First Senior Brother said,

“Junior Brother, there’s no need for us to be so formal.”

Tang Tian secretly muttered to himself,

“If I don’t bow, you’ll probably obliterate me. You can choose not to accept it, but I wouldn’t dare not to.”

Didn’t you see that Crimson Guzi and Crimson Bozi behind him had already knelt down?

First Senior Brother’s deer mouth curved into a smile, and Red River Child then left.

A jade slip appeared in Tang Tian’s hand. This was the most complex Formation Tang Tian had ever seen.

Just one glance made his head spin, and he quickly withdrew.

The feeling First Senior Brother gave Tang Tian was that he was strong, terrifyingly strong!

He was an unfathomable sea.

Fourth Senior Sister could still be probed, but First Senior Brother was unprobed!

Even his cultivation level was unknown, making him extremely terrifying.

Tang Tian felt fear. Even after Tang Tian left, Crimson Guzi and Crimson Bozi knelt for a long time before daring to stand up.

After Tang Tian returned home, he had no mind for Cultivation. Tang Tian laughed wryly; he had encountered a Heart Demon.

It was mentioned in novels that Immortals would have Heart Demons. If they couldn’t be eliminated, it would be like a Martial Artist practicing martial arts, unable to advance for life.

Once the Heart Demon was discovered, it quickly dissipated.

In fact, this was the effect of First Senior Brother’s single Spiritual Root—a peerless aura among his peers!

Tang Tian’s gaze was resolute. Although First Senior Brother was not weak, he too would one day achieve this effect!

After First Senior Brother made a round… he disappeared down the mountain again…

By evening, Tang Tian entered the Medicine Venerable Space.

After eating a large pile of Spirit Fruits again, he Broke Through to the Lianqi Fifth Level.

Indeed, one was most vulnerable during a Breakthrough, making it easy for Heart Demons to arise.

After the Breakthrough, Tang Tian found that the previous fear was completely gone.

It was very strange.

Did First Senior Brother specifically return when he was about to Break Through?

Tang Tian’s three Senior Brothers and Sisters were also called over by First Senior Brother for a talk.

First Senior Brother said,

“Third Junior Sister, this is a Jade Heart Fruit, which can help you Break Through to the Lianqi Seventh Level.”

Chi Fanzi took it with fear…

The more Tang Tian thought about it, the stranger it became—he hadn’t Cultivated today…

After a good night’s sleep, his mental state had actually recovered.

However, this was the first time he had slept since leaving Tang Family Village; before, he had spent his nights meditating in the inn.

Originally, his Breakthrough was a slow, gradual process, but now he didn't even have time to comprehend the changes.

The next day, he was woken up by the Big Goose. Tang Tian quickly got up; it was almost dawn.

He hurried out, thankfully no one noticed.

Tang Tian recovered quite quickly… he finished in one day, even Fourth Senior Sister would need three to five hours…

After Tang Tian sensed the Spiritual Qi throughout his body, he found that three-tenths of it was gone.

Tang Tian said,

“This is too strange. Does resisting a Heart Demon also consume Spiritual Qi? First Senior Brother is truly terrifying; I’ll try not to see him in the future.”

Although this wasn't something Tang Tian could decide.

Chi Liuzi and Senior Brother Chi Qingzi were flying wildly outside early in the morning.

They were violently venting the Heart Demons within them. Tang Tian didn’t dare to appear, and only after they left did Tang Tian breathe a sigh of relief.

…What are they going crazy about…

Feeling his Lianqi Fifth Level cultivation, Tang Tian was delighted. Finally, after half a month of Cultivation, he had reached this stage.

Even if he encountered the Lianqi Sixth Level Xiao Feng Qing Peng now, he could run faster.

A Lianqi Fifth Level cultivator could open a considerable Family in Qingmu County, so it was not weak.

Coupled with the Swift Steps Talisman, and Tang Tian using two-thirds of his strength, he could even escape from a Lianqi Sixth Level Black Feather Lion Eagle Vulture.

In fact, as long as he had enough Cold Feather, a counter-kill wasn’t impossible.

Tang Tian began to condense Cold Feather and found that there was no upper limit to its condensation!

However, condensing one required consuming one-third of his Spiritual Qi. With such a large consumption, Tang Tian couldn’t imagine how good its effect would be.

When the Cold Feather was taken out, the temperature in the room instantly dropped.

It could already initially affect the surrounding environment.

Although it was still far from the third layer, it had already achieved the first layer’s Spiritual Qi coexistence!

Tang Tian’s Dantian now contained a type of ice Qi.

This was the power of a Profound Rank Cultivation Technique.

Tang Tian had previously underestimated Profound Rank Cultivation Techniques too much.

The current power of “Earthly Fiend Fist” was also not small.

Before, his cultivation was low, but now, when encountering Body Refining type Yao Beasts, the damage could even penetrate their flesh.

On the path of Immortal Cultivation, a single rank difference is like a chasm!

Tang Tian felt that the Spiritual Qi in his body was fifty percent more than before.

The strength of his Physical Body could still be improved, but it required Body Refining items for tempering.

Unfortunately, Tang Tian hadn’t reached the Lianqi Seventh Level… otherwise, he could temper his five internal organs and open the Physical Body Treasure Trove…

Now he could practice “Heavy Sword Technique” and “Bearing Sword Stance.” The cultivation threshold for “Bearing Sword Stance” was Lianqi Fifth Level.

But there was no rush. Tang Tian exited the Medicine Venerable Space and knocked on Fourth Senior Sister’s door…

Tang Tian said,

“Fourth Senior Sister, these are the Spirit Medicines Revered Master wants to plant.”

Tang Tian took out a large pile of Spirit Medicines from his storage ring, feeling very emotional. If these couldn’t be planted, he would be finished.

Fourth Senior Sister said,

“If you hadn’t returned late, you two should have been guarding the Medicine Garden half a month ago.

“But the fact that you two could accomplish all this in half a month also surprised me.”

It turned out he had implicated Senior Sister Liu, but then Fourth Senior Sister’s next sentence made Tang Tian break out in a cold sweat.

Fourth Senior Sister said,

“Little rascal… what methods do you have to achieve this level…?”
