Chapter 241: Chapter 134: Stealing a Man
“Lord of Thunder God said! No need to build a temple!” Xiaoqing walked among the crowd, shouting to everyone, “Disperse.”
Who knew that these people, upon hearing Xiaoqing’s words, did not budge and just stared at her.
“You… aren’t even listening to the Lord of Thunder God?”
“It’s not that we aren’t listening…” The leader of the group turned his head to look at the people, and then said to Xiaoqing, “We’re just uneasy.”
Xiaoqing was stunned.
Then he continued: “We can’t just receive the Lord of Thunder God’s bounty without giving anything in return.”
“…”
“What if… the Lord of Thunder God thinks we’re ungrateful and leaves, what would we do?”
Xiaoqing turned pale and slowly nodded her head.
“So you’re revolting?”
Looking at Xiaoqing under the deity statue, Zheng Fa was sowhat at a loss for words.
Are you that afraid I would run away?
Xiaoqing said embarrassedly: “Well… what they said makes so sense.”
Zheng Fa was still not keen on building any temple. These people had just started to have a few good days, and building a temple was a huge project that would exhaust the people and squander resources.
If it really had any benefits to him then perhaps.
But all he wanted was Heavenly rit; these people living well was more important to him…
“Here’s what you do, go and talk to them, clean up the land in the valley below the mountain.”
“Clean up the land?” Xiaoqing asked blankly, “What do you an by clean up the land?”
“…”
Zheng Fa planned to make the Heavenly Stele Realm the base for the Jiushan Sect.
He always liked to prepare for the worst—
For example, because of researching new thods, the Jiushan Sect might be contested by both Immortal Sect and Demon Sect.
The Heavenly Stele Realm then must have higher productivity—to produce Spirit Plants and spiritual materials, to sustain the Jiushan Sect, and even to provide a continuous flow of junior disciples for the Jiushan Sect.
Developing agriculture was imperative.
Zheng Fa didn’t know if Half Mountain City had a tradition of farming before, but it definitely didn’t have it now.
They lived a life of hunting and fishing.
Therefore, Xiaoqing didn’t even know what land clearing was.
Previously, Zheng Fa didn’t let them farm because the Thunder Skill control was insufficient, making it difficult to provide a stable climate environnt for crops’ growth.
Another reason was considering the physical condition of the residents of Half Mountain City—their previous physique could make them die from farming.
Now that these people had been taken good care of for two months, Zheng Fa felt a bit more relieved.
What’s more important is that, even without mastering the Spirit Tree Thunder, Zheng Fa had an idea about cultivating Spirit Plants using the Fusang Wood.
They could start preparing for farming.
…
In the valley.
The people of Half Mountain City split into two groups.
One group was fishing in the river with nets.
The other group, led by Xiaoqing, was clearing land by the river.
The land clearers were mostly won and children; the work wasn’t heavy—the soil in the valley was soft, ford from the accumulation of sedint, making it fertile and relatively easy to till.
Their main job was to pull out weeds and clear stones from the land.
Beside Xiaoqing was a little boy, pulling weeds while looking at the boat in the river.
Or rather, looking at the lively fish on the boat.
As he watched, the saliva was almost dripping from the corner of the boy’s mouth.
“How about it? Want to go fishing?” Xiaoqing asked with a smile seeing his expression.
“Not really!” Unexpectedly, the boy wiped his saliva and shook his head repeatedly.
“Hmm?”
“I want to work for the Lord of Thunder God!” The little boy looked up and smiled, “My dad even envies my mom and !”
“…”
“He also wants to work for the Lord of Thunder God!”
…
Zheng Fa snuck into the Hundred Treasure Hall sowhat stealthily.
Last ti he exchanged so many spiritual materials in the Hundred Treasure Hall, Xiao Yuying was quite displeased.
He felt he was a bit too extravagant.
This ti, after promoting the cultivation of edible fungi on the sealed land and adjusting the rain several tis with the Rain Stopping Thunder.
The points of Heavenly rit on the Sealing God Book were more than last ti—over seven thousand points.
If he were to exchange in public again, it would be too conspicuous.
This ti, he simply waited until everyone had left before running to the Hundred Treasure Pavilion to make the exchange.
After searching on the Jade Stele for a while, Zheng Fa exchanged for another set of spiritual materials required for practicing the Divine Sky Thunder Control True thod.
The remaining Heavenly rit points, he exchanged them all for cheap and abundant spiritual materials.
After exchanging the materials, Zheng Fa didn’t leave the Hundred Treasure Hall, but summoned the Sealing God Book and started cultivating.
On the Thunder Field, the Fusang Wood gently swayed its branches, as if claiming credit.
Raising this thing is indeed a bit expensive.
But it also tried very hard… It deserves a reward!
Zheng Fa swallowed the newly exchanged spiritual materials, and streams of pure Spiritual Energy flowed towards the Thunder Field.
Zheng Fa looked forward to the Fusang Wood…
All the spiritual materials he had taken before could have perfected the Foundation Establishnt of the Divine Sky Thunder Control True thod.
This Fusang Wood, difficult as it was to cultivate, should at least bloom to let him have a look.
Indeed, absorbing so much Spiritual Energy, the Fusang Wood began to grow intensely—the trunk gradually thickened, and mysterious and profound patterns appeared on the bark.
Zheng Fa felt his Dantian beco warm.
His ridians all over his body itched as if they were growing and cheering.
But…
No flowers blood!
Looking at the Fusang Wood which still has only a trunk and not even a single branch.
Zheng Fa twitched the corners of his mouth—this thing seems indeed useful.
But its appetite is too big!
Without the Fusang Wood flowering, Zheng Fa’s cultivation in the Divine Sky Thunder Control True thod still remains at the Nurturing Thunder Seed stage.
That is to say, his cultivation level is still at the initial phase of Foundation Establishnt.
Zheng Fa could only bring out three other types of spiritual materials—Purple Cloud Flower, Wind Thunder Fruit, and Five Thunder Grass.
The previous two tis he had exchanged so of the spiritual materials required for the Divine Sky Thunder Control True thod, and with this exchange of the Wind Thunder Fruit, he is now able to cultivate the second Secret Technique taught by his master—Wind and Thunder Body.
Compared to the first Secret Technique, Heavenly Net, he values Wind and Thunder Body a bit more.
Because it is a body technique.
Of course, Zheng Fa doesn’t think he values Wind and Thunder Body because he is coward, always thinking about how to escape, but because of the principles of this body technique.
Heavenly Net just controls electric currents.
But Wind and Thunder Body, in Zheng Fa’s view, seems to have already begun to touch upon the control of electromagnetic forces.
The principle of Wind and Thunder Body is sowhat like a maglev train, except maglev trains use magnetism mostly for levitation, while Wind and Thunder Body creates magnetic fields inside and around the body, allowing not only for levitation but also generating thrust behind, enabling rapid flight.
In Zheng Fa’s view, cultivating Wind and Thunder Body, apart from enhancing his ability to save his own life,
More so, it aids him in further exploring the relationship between Thunder Skill and electromagnetic forces—thus better helping him control the Spirit Tree Thunder.
Cultivation of Wind and Thunder Body was extrely smooth.
Once he opened the Divine Seal, electric lights flickered all around him, and in the blink of an eye, he rushed out of the pavilion.
The speed was so quick that Zheng Fa was caught off guard, his head charging straight into the tightly closed doors of the main hall.
He couldn’t help but close his eyes, yet found that the hall doors opened by themselves, his entire body directly flying into the main hall.
After stabilizing himself, Zheng Fa’s mind was filled with question marks.
Previously, no one wanted to enter and see inside this main hall.
Xiao Yuying tried but was stopped.
Could it be… that the door needed to be pushed with the head?
Inside the main hall was pitch dark, unable to see anything.
Zheng Fa activated the Void Spirit Eye, but in front of him it was still pitch dark.
Before this, Xiao Yuying had ntioned it to him—when the Green Sun Dao Body caused a disturbance and the Fusang Wood appeared, this main hall door also opened, but Xiao Yuying only saw darkness.
The Fusang Wood hasn’t evolved this ti either?
The next mont, the Divine Seal gave him the answer.
The item flew out from within his embrace, hovered in mid-air, and emitted a blinding light.
“Thunder God Zheng Fa, with accumulated rits of ten thousand, is specially granted the Divine Seal…”
A loud and majestic voice resonated within the main hall—only then did Zheng Fa understand, probably his Heavenly rit points had accumulated enough, and the Divine Seal had been upgraded again.
Indeed, amongst the light, the Divine Seal slowly shrank into a bundle, revealing a square bronze seal.
Yet Zheng Fa wasn’t looking at the bronze seal, but rather dazedly at the great hall, slightly illuminated by the seal’s light.
At the furthest end of the hall seed to be a high platform, a rectangular shadow stood vertically upon it.
Like a tombstone…
…
Outside of the Heavenly Stele Realm.
“Fairy Xiao, aren’t you leaving yet?”
Yan Wushuang looked at Xiao Yuying who lingered in the area, tentatively asking.
“Aren’t you also not leaving?”
Xiao Yuying glanced at him indifferently, a trace of teasing in her gaze.
Yan Wushuang clenched his teeth—he had thought it over and over, but still didn’t want to give up on persuading Zheng Fa.
Zheng Fa’s talent is one aspect.
On the other hand, what he actually didn’t say to Zheng Fa was Elder Han’s original words: If he could persuade Zheng Fa, Elder Han would consider helping him.
That’s the Sunset Sword Immortal!
A person who keeps entering and exiting the threshold of Divinity Transformation!
Therefore, after he left the Heavenly Stele Realm, he stayed here, trying to talk to Zheng Fa again.
But… soone is competing for the sa man!
Xiao Yuying also waited here.
He did know that Xiao Yuying also intended to pull Zheng Fa to her side.
The two exchanged glances.
Xiao Yuying’s lips slightly curved upwards, seemingly very confident.
Yan Wushuang really felt a bit defeated—of course, his and Xiao Yuying’s cultivation levels were different, a Nascent Soul is always stronger than a Golden Core.
That’s acceptable, after all, he also has the identity of the son of the Sect Leader of Tianhe Sect.
But the problem is what he does is against the Tianhe Sect!
This identity is useless!
Honestly speaking, if he were Zheng Fa and really wanted to cooperate with soone, he would likely choose Xiao Yuying.
“Fairy Xiao, our goals do not conflict…” Yan Wushuang’s eyes lit up, feeling that he had fallen into a misunderstanding.
“They do conflict.” Yet, unexpectedly, Xiao Yuying shook her head, “I don’t know what you want Zheng Fa for, but if he follows , I won’t watch him march to his death.”
“…”
In the silence, the Heavenly Stele in front of them suddenly shook.
Both were sowhat startled, and upon looking up, they saw golden light shimring over Zheng Fa’s na, it seed this shimring was what made the Heavenly Stele keep vibrating.
“This…” Yan Wushuang stunned for a mont then suddenly said, “On the Heavenly Stele of my Tianhe Sect, the na of Tianhe Ancestor is also in gold…”
“I absolutely will not watch him march to his death.” Xiao Yuying remained silent for a mont, then repeated.
“Fairy Xiao…” Yan Wushuang suddenly said, “Then I really have to compete with you for him.”
Xiao Yuying frowned, looking at him.
“Elder Han is right!” Yan Wushuang’s expression was full of determination, “Mr. Zheng is the next great ancestor!”
