Chapter 139: Another Day

At this time, the Azure Void boundary domain had reached dusk again, and the battlefield had only been cleaned up a small part. Human cultivators came and went, dragging Shaman corpses back and placing them in designated positions. Shaman tribe members can nourish the boundary domain after death, which is common knowledge in the Western Region.

Wei Yuan also felt that the Western Region was quite strange. The Shaman tribe uses humans to sacrifice to heaven, while humans use the Shaman tribe to nourish the land, treating each other as fish and meat; this cycle really has a feeling that cannot be described.

In the stone house, Xu Wenwu wrote furiously, his right fingers already numb. He couldn't remember how long he had been writing; he had just been writing all along.

At the very beginning, although what he wrote was also what he had seen and heard, in fact, those were all his own glorious deeds, such as getting a score of ninety-nine in the second grade of elementary school. And for example, entering the top thirty in the class in a certain exam in the first year of junior high, and then killing into the top fifty in the class in a certain exam in the third year of

But these glorious deeds seemed to have ended before they were even written. Then, as he wrote, Xu Wenwu began to let his imagination run wild, writing whatever came to mind. Dormitories, canteens, internet cafes, and food stalls outside the school gates at midnight—everything was there. He had originally wanted to write about the library, but after picking up the pen, he realized he hadn't been there once in his four years of university and didn't know what it looked like inside.

Just like that, as he wrote, the jade paper suddenly began to glow; today's thirty thousand words were already enough.

A door appeared in the stone room again. The door opened, and Behind Bao Yun walked in, picked up the jade paper on the table, and said, "You may rest now."

This sentence was no less than the music of the heavens. Xu Wenwu struggled to walk out of the stone room, two lines of hot tears rolling down his face.

Behind Bao Yun couldn't help but laugh at the sight, and then she saw Xu Wenwu walking toward the direction of the main hall in front of the peak. Behind Bao Yun said, "The direction is wrong; the food is to the right past the main peak."

"I'm going to walk the horse first," Xu Wenwu said from afar.

Xu Wenwu felt that he had become so professional and diligent, but Behind Bao Yun only nodded and gave no other indication.

In fact, he naturally did not know that for many years, countless young gentlemen, once they stood before Behind Bao Yun, no matter what kind of playboy they were, would become diligent, professional, and refined in their interests. Their conversation would also rise to a higher level, chatting entirely about world affairs as if they were related to them.

Seeing that Behind Bao Yun was about to leave, Xu Wenwu couldn't help but ask, "I've written so much, how long will you need to read it?"

Behind Bao Yun said, "According to the time of your world, one minute."

Xu Wenwu was instantly discouraged, thinking bitterly to himself: Since you don't value it, then I won't write well tomorrow!

Tomorrow is a matter for tomorrow; for now, the boast he had made still had to be fulfilled, so Xu Wenwu found the horse and began to walk it. Now he had developed a connection with this horse; he could vaguely sense where it was without looking, which was very magical.

Behind Bao Yun took the jade paper to the summit of the main peak. By this time, it was already late, and everyone from the Grand Beginning Palace had returned, so they divided their spiritual sense to read the jade paper together.

The thirty thousand words flowed freely, and according to the time of that world, it took each of them less than half a minute to finish reading.

Wei Yuan's Primordial Spirit was already extremely powerful by now, and he was familiar with Xu Wenwu's style of speech, so his spiritual sense automatically extracted the important content as it swept over, then categorized everything else as trash to be sealed away for the time being, to be reviewed again when he had time later to search for any overlooked value. The entire process took less than ten seconds, extracting a full two thousand words of essence, far exceeding expectations.

The others also had their own methods and processed the tens of thousands of words themselves.

Only Xiang Xiaoyu had no experience and, caught off guard, remembered all the content in his mind. Now he was miserable, spitting and cursing while clearing the trash from his Primordial Spirit.

The night passed without incident. The next morning, the battlefield had been cleared, and Wei Yuan marked out a plot of land about a square li in size on the side of the main peak, handing it over to the cultivators to cultivate, preparing to plant the Liang rice unique to the Western Regions there.

This type of rice grows rapidly and requires a damp environment and plenty of water. It normally matures in just three months, and the Liang rice produced contains faint spiritual energy, making it the most common food for poor cultivators in the Western Regions.

Ordinary cultivators not only need to eat, but their appetites are also much larger. Although there aren't many people now, as Wei Yuan prepares to recruit a second batch of cultivators, the military rations retrieved from the secret treasury will not be enough.

Once the Shaman tribe's offensive temporarily comes to an end, Wei Yuan plans to send people to Quliu Town to purchase a batch of grain for emergencies, and then the newly planted grain should be ready to follow.

The plot of land, a square li in size, is about five hundred mu, and one harvest of Liang rice can produce ten thousand catties. Within the Azure Void Realm, the maturation period can be shortened to one and a half months, and with a little added Wood-Life Profound Essence, it can be even faster.

Liang rice is only the most basic spiritual food. An ordinary Body Forging cultivator needs to eat at least five catties a day to satisfy the needs of cultivation; if they cultivate more diligently, ten catties might not be enough. Based on this calculation, in one month, Wei Yuan will be able to support a team of about a thousand cultivators. With more people, more spiritual fields can be cultivated.

The second Great Shaman has been beheaded, and the Shaman tribe will definitely lie low for a period of time. Wei Yuan does not intend to waste this precious window of opportunity; after arranging the cultivation work, he set off alone to scout the movements of the Shaman tribe. Behind Bao Yun and the Senior Martial Sister are each responsible for the other two directions.

Wei Yuan is scouting the direction toward Quliu Town. A large number of humans live in Quliu Town, and it is unlikely that the Shaman army will appear in this direction, making it a relatively safe path.

Behind Bao Yun and the Senior Martial Sister chose the southwest and northwest, respectively. These two directions are naturally much more dangerous and more likely to encounter the Shaman tribe. However, neither of them is an ordinary person, and even if they encountered a Great Shaman, they would likely be able to retreat unscathed.

Behind Bao Yun's Seven-Marvel Treasure Tree isolates heaven and earth and is a supreme Dao foundation for concealing one's tracks; the fact that the lizard Great Shaman didn't even know he had been secretly planted with a seed by Behind Bao Yun is proof of this. Therefore, Behind Bao Yun is responsible for the southwest direction, where it is most likely to discover the Shaman tribe, striving to find the Shaman tribe's stronghold in the Shattered Domain.

!.

There is also a large Shaman tribe in the northwest direction of Ji Liuli, but the main body of those tribes is much further away than in the southwest direction. A Shaman stronghold could also appear here, but it is less likely than in the southwest.

Although Ji Liuli does not have the heaven-defying concealment methods of Behind Bao Yun, she is, after all, from the Heavenly Secret Hall. Although she only likes fighting and killing, there are many Heavenly Secret Arts and Feng Shui Arts related to fighting and killing.

For example, before setting out, Ji Liuli blessed herself with several Heavenly Secret Arts, significantly reducing her presence between heaven and earth. Now, when she walks past ordinary people without any disguise, the impression she leaves is not that a person has passed by, but that an ant has crawled past, making it very easy to be ignored.

Zhang Sheng and Xiang Xiaoyu's strength is halved outside the realm, so they are guarding the home to see if anyone blind enough dares to come over. Zhang Sheng's sword array had an unfavorable start in its first battle, failing to kill the Dharma Form by just a tiny bit, so now all four swords are itching for action.

Yun Feifei and Xu Wanyi are busy with countless trivial matters waiting for them.

Xu Wenwu woke up in the morning, first watered the trees, and then walked into the small stone room by himself to begin a new day's journey.

However, this pen today was different from yesterday; it felt very light when picked up, almost weightless, and could move according to his will. Xu Wenwu was overjoyed and wrote like the wind, actually capturing some of the feeling of a keyboard.

It was just that the pen still lacked the soul of a keyboard, missing that domineering feeling of striking down heavily.
