Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 472 A blessing in disguise
How to deal with it?

this is a problem.

Moreover, it is a problem that must be solved.

If this continues, Maoshan will probably cease to be a blessed land and instead become a ghost town.

"That sealing formation has long been lost."

Master Yang Hua shook his head.

He wasn't worried about the inheritance being passed on to outsiders; Maoshan has never been one to hoard its treasures.

It doesn't matter where Xu Yuexue went.

The problem is that it has truly been lost.

This is troublesome.

"Does the farmer's family have any sealing formations?"

Lin Zheng looked at Xu Yue.

The farmer's array formations are quite powerful, but he really doesn't know if they contain any sealing spirit arrays.

"A farmer's sealing formation?" Xu Yue shook his head and said, "A farmer's sealing formation can only seal the Yin energy within a certain range. If too much Yin energy is released over a long period of time, it will burst the seal, and then things will get really messy."

"Then how can we solve this?" Lin Zheng asked. "Master Liu, could we solve this by using a feng shui formation?"

"Solve it?" Liu Chengji shook his head and said, "The effect is probably the same as the peasant formation, and it can't compare to the Taoist formation."

Taoist formations and seals can seal the source.

However, the farmer's formations and feng shui formations can only seal off the surrounding area.

This is the essential difference.

One addresses the symptoms, the other addresses the root cause.

Treating the symptoms alone carries too many hidden risks.

"What should we do then?" Xu Yuanzhi said. "I have contacted other fellow practitioners, but their similar inheritances are also incomplete."

"Mr. Xu, do you have a solution?"

Seeing Xu Yue's expression, Lin Zheng seemed to understand something and then asked.

“There is a solution,” Xu Yue said, “but I don’t know if the people of Maoshan are willing to give it up.”

"What method?" Master Yang Hua asked. "Mr. Xu, please speak frankly."

This problem isn't the problem of Xu Yue's students, so if someone is asked to solve it, they shouldn't be asked to do it for nothing.

Besides, circumstances were beyond his control, and Maoshan had no other choice.

As for reasoning with Xu Yue, he really hadn't thought about it.

Do you think it has anything to do with Xu Yue's student?

Naturally there is.

Without the spirit array they set up, this problem certainly wouldn't have occurred.

The key point is that they chose the location to set up the spirit array themselves.

If someone sets up a spirit array at the location you chose, and spiritual energy is generated, activating the corpse-suppressing coffin sealed by the ancestral master, what does that have to do with them?

Reasoning with people might not be enough to win them over, and more importantly, you might offend them.

Xu Yue is not someone that Maoshan can afford to offend now.

If we gather the power of the entire Taoist sect, they might not necessarily be afraid.

Perhaps even if the entire cultivation world were gathered together, they wouldn't be afraid.

The key now is to solve this problem.

“Dig it out and burn the contents of the bronze coffin,” Xu Yue said. “However, I wonder if you, Master Yang, know how to open the bronze coffin. Otherwise, we might have to burn it along with the coffin.”

"Dig it out?"

"Burned?"

Yang Hua and Xu Yuanzhi were somewhat surprised.

Could Xu Yue's question about whether he was willing to part with it be referring to the contents of the bronze coffin?
Or perhaps it refers to the coffin used to suppress corpses?

If it is opened, then what will be burned is the contents inside the bronze coffin.

If it can't be opened, it means that the coffin containing the corpse will be destroyed along with it.

Are coffins used to suppress corpses precious?

That is naturally precious.

Can Maoshan still forge coffins to suppress corpses?
can.

It's not as easy as it used to be.

"The method to open the coffin containing the corpse was not lost by Maoshan," Yang Hua said. "However, Mr. Xu, aren't you afraid of the dense Yin energy?"

"As long as there's a way to open it."

Xu Yue nodded, then took out some stones and set up an array not far away.

As everyone wondered what was happening, they suddenly felt the ground shake, and then several bronze coffins emerged from the ground.

This surprised everyone present.

What method is this?
Did he manage to get the bronze coffin out of the zombie cave?

So terrifying.

What the hell is this farmer's method?

This is practically the perfect method for digging up graves!

There's no need to dig a tunnel or even go into the tomb.

As those bronze coffins appeared, a malevolent aura instantly blotted out the sky and spread outwards, turning the surrounding area as black as ink.

At this moment, the formation that Xu Yue had set up earlier activated, like a dome, enveloping the Yin energy within it.

"Master Yang!"

Xu Yue looked at Yang Hua, then called for the doctor.

Upon hearing this, Yang Hua immediately understood and, without hesitation, revealed the method for opening the coffin containing the corpse, without even trying to hide it from the others.

This method is nothing special.

What is truly precious is the method of making the coffin used to suppress the corpse.

Xu Yue nodded and then headed towards the bronze coffins.

Xu Yue could use the Earth Spirit Orb to send the bronze coffins to the designated location, but he couldn't open them out of thin air; he had to walk over and open them by hand.

"Pity!"

As Xu Yue approached the bronze coffin, a wave of Yin energy swept over him. Suddenly, a protective shield appeared around him, blocking the Yin energy.

These malevolent energies are also a form of energy.

Unfortunately, it's different from the chilling aura emanating from the previous Yin Spirit Pearl.

Yin energy can be transformed into spiritual energy and absorbed, but Yin evil energy cannot.

Absorbing evil energy can harm one's primordial spirit.

The evil energy can have a significant impact.

Moreover, it wasn't just the aura of malevolence, but also the aura of blood, though it was relatively faint.

"Oh!"

Xu Yue opened a coffin used to suppress corpses, peeked inside curiously, and was immediately disappointed.

There was only a rotting skeleton inside.

However, the malevolent energy contained within the remains was astonishing.

Xu Yue grabbed the coffin containing the corpse and emptied it out, then threw the real body out.

This thing really is a magical artifact.

Moreover, its rank is not low.

As the remains spilled out, the suppression seemed to lessen, and the Yin energy erupted instantly.

Xu Yue stomped his foot, and a burst of earth fire erupted, instantly engulfing the skeleton.

"Zizzi"

Earth fire belongs to Yang and is the nemesis of Yin energy. However, the Yin energy is too strong, and the earth fire is showing signs of going out.

So fierce?

Xu Yue looked somewhat surprised.

However, he did not panic at all, and immediately took out the Fire Spirit Orb that he had obtained from Xiao Hongdian.

boom!
As soon as the Fire Spirit Orb appeared, it seemed to be stimulated by the Yin energy, and flames shot into the sky, dyeing the entire array space red.

"This"

"Will the principal be alright?"

Meng Hao couldn't help but ask Liu Chengji, who was standing next to him.

The firelight enveloped the entire formation, naturally including Xu Yue within it.

They had no idea what was going on with Xu Yue.

In fact, once Xu Yue stepped into the formation he had set up, they could no longer see him clearly.

Inside the formation, it was pitch black, and with their eyesight, they couldn't see anything at all.

"Don't worry!" Liu Chengji was not concerned.

He knew very well how well Xu Yue knew.

That flame wasn't some kind of earth fire, but rather a fire spirit orb.

Xu Yue had refined the Fire Spirit Pearl, so how could he possibly be harmed by its flames?

Ok?
As the Fire Spirit Orb burned with Yin energy, the Yan Emperor's Primordial Scripture suddenly began to operate within Xu Yue's body, and the Yin-Yang Five Elements Spirit Orbs within his body swirled around him.

Does the Fire Spirit Orb have a purifying function when burned?

Or perhaps the Yin-Yang Five Elements Spirit Pearl has a purifying function?

Or perhaps we could burn it with the Fire Spirit Orb and purify it with the Yin-Yang Five Elements Spirit Orb?
Regardless of whether this was true or not, powerful streams of spiritual energy surged into Xu Yue's body, and his cultivation level continued to increase.

What a blessing in disguise!
Xu Yue was surprised by this unexpected turn of events.

Of course, it wasn't without effort.

The spiritual power of the Fire Spirit Orb is gradually disappearing.

But it's absolutely worth it.

This is many times better than directly absorbing the spiritual energy contained in the Fire Spirit Orb.

The first skeleton turned to ash, and all traces of malevolent energy vanished.

The second body, the third body.
Xu Yue's cultivation level is also constantly increasing.

Yin Spirit: Early Stage, Middle Stage, Late Stage, Peak Stage.
Think more.

His cultivation ultimately stopped at the peak of Yin Shen, and he did not advance any further.

Xu Yue not only exhausted the Yin energy left by the zombies sealed by the Maoshan Patriarch, but also consumed a Fire Spirit Pearl.

The former is the relationship.

Xu Yue didn't know how terrifying those sealed zombies were before, but he could imagine.

After so long, in a world with sparse spiritual energy, such a strong Yin energy still remains. How terrifying must it have been at its peak?

Sealing them in the zombie cave means they can't kill them, so they can only seal them.

Otherwise, how could the Maoshan sect, established for so many years, have only grown to such a small size?

Xu Yue's cultivation level increased dramatically this time, but it also depleted the "foundation" of the Maoshan Zombie Cave.

Of course, those malevolent energies are probably more harmful than beneficial to others.

Xu Yue hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

By a twist of fate, misfortune turned into blessing.

The bones turned to ashes, and the Yin energy within the formation gradually dissipated, leaving only Xu Yue, the coffins used to suppress the corpses, and the decaying vegetation shrouded in Yin energy.

"Crack!"

When everyone looked at Xu Yue, they saw that the fire spirit stone in his hand had turned gray, then cracked and turned into pebbles.

"This"

Yang Hua and Xu Yuanzhi exchanged a glance, momentarily speechless.

I owe this person a huge favor.

Xu Yue helped them resolve the hidden dangers in Maoshan, which actually consumed a Fire Spirit Orb.

How could Maoshan not know how precious this spiritual pearl is?

Qi Yunshan used a spirit pearl, which consumed a lot of energy, to get Xu Yue to set up an array for them.

"It should be resolved," Xu Yue said. "That place will probably be restored after a while."

“Mr. Xu, the broken thing in your hand just now should be the Fire Spirit Orb, right?” Yang Hua said. “Maoshan doesn’t have any spirit orbs right now, but we will have our disciples search for them. Once we find one, we will send it to Peach Blossom Village as soon as possible. However, we can’t guarantee that it will be a fire-attribute spirit orb.”

We can't pretend we don't know about this.

Maoshan is not that kind of person.

Yang Hua didn't want to leave behind any inner demons.

Xu Yue looked at Yang Hua with some surprise, but couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

They can pretend they didn't see anything.

However, those who follow the Taoist path are still very responsible.

“No need,” Xu Yue said. “If your Maoshan sect has any non-top-secret ancient cultivation books, just make copies for me. Of course, if you have spirit pearls, I can exchange them for something else.”

"it is good!"

Yang Hua nodded.

Spirit pearls are not so easy to find.

They also lacked confidence.

If this drags on, people will think that Maoshan is just all talk.

As for some non-top-secret ancient cultivation texts, Maoshan naturally still has some.

After all, the sect has a strong foundation, and even if the inheritance has been lost, the things collected over the years should not be underestimated.

Besides, Xu Yue only needs a photocopy, so there's no loss for them.

“This corpse-suppressing coffin should be a decent magical artifact. You can keep it; you might need it someday,” Xu Yue said. “This world is getting more and more interesting.”

interesting?
For those who cultivate, this might indeed be a good thing.

But for ordinary people, that may not be the case.

Just like the skeletons in the coffin containing the corpses, stimulated by spiritual energy, they were directly revived, and the Yin energy became as black as ink.

The destruction of the sealing formation was a disaster for Maoshan.

Only Xu Yue's cultivation was so high, and he had the protection of the spiritual pearl; if he were an ordinary person, he would have turned into a rotting corpse long ago.

It was even said that the problem was solved.

If this situation isn't resolved and allowed to continue, the Maoshan sect will likely have to relocate and won't even be able to protect its mountain gate. That would be a huge disgrace.

Even sects have to save face. If they lose face, where will they get fresh blood?
Without new talent, how can the legacy be passed down?

Maoshan is not one of the four famous Taoist mountains, but the Maoshan School is very famous because of film and television works.

It's hard to say whether it's comparable to Longhu Mountain and Wudang Mountain, but it's probably much better than Qingcheng Mountain and Qiyun Mountain.

Maoshan's strength is definitely among the top in the Taoist lineage.

"Could zombies really appear in this world?"

Lin Zheng couldn't help but ask a question.

He felt increasing pressure, not only because the power of the underworld was constantly growing, but also because there seemed to be more and more strange things happening.

There are many well-known places like the Maoshan Zombie Cave, which were once sealed away as places of malevolent spirits.

And those that are unknown, there are probably many more.

Just like the incident at the Insect Valley in Dianzhou, Lin Zheng also knew some of it.

The good is recovering, but the bad is also there.

"I don't know about that," Xu Yue said. "However, the coffin containing the corpse is basically full of bones. Whether it was a zombie before is hard to say, given how long ago it was."

Is it?

That's probably true.

Even after all this time, that malevolent aura is still so strong.

You can imagine how terrifying it must have been when it was first sealed.

If that's not a zombie, then what is it?
However, as time went by and the spiritual energy in the world thinned out, it rotted.

"Inside a zombie cave?"

Xu Yuanzhi suddenly looked at Xu Yue and couldn't help but ask a question.

"The faint Yin energy emanating from the cave should dissipate soon," Xu Yue said. "What's inside should only be able to be sealed."

Xu Yue didn't spell it out clearly, but Xu Yuanzhi and the others understood.

Maoshan has always been a powerful force. How many zombies can it possibly contain but not eliminate?

Therefore, the hidden danger in the zombie cave was gone.

The reason why there is still yin energy overflowing is simply because it is a remnant from before.

"It's lunchtime, why don't we eat first?"

Yang Hua suddenly spoke up.

Xu Yue had no objection; having come all this way, he wasn't in a hurry to go back.

After all, we still have to wait for the people from Maoshan to photocopy the ancient books.

Since we're here, it would be best if we could take some back with us.

Xu Yue actually collected quite a few ancient books.

His father-in-law helped him collect quite a lot of them.

After all, ancient books are antiques, and there are quite a few wealthy people who like to collect them.

Xu Chengyang also collected quite a lot.

He has now come into contact with many wealthy people, and even people from the underworld.

Nowadays, when martial arts practitioners are injured, they often run to Peach Blossom Village.

Some injuries cannot be fixed with money.
