Senior sister, stop working and go home for dinner.

As spring deepens and summer fades, the mountains, shrouded in clouds, grow even greener.

With the concerted efforts of everyone in the Cloud Hidden Sect, the destroyed halls and plazas were rebuilt at an astonishing speed, even more solid and orderly than before. The newly built walls were painted snow-white, and the newly paved plaza slabs were perfectly joined, gleaming with a bluish-gray sheen in the sunlight.

Life in the sect returned to normal, but a certain invisible pressure always lingered in Chen Anran's mind.

He was more silent than ever before, devoting most of his time to cultivation and the use of the Museum of Evolution.

The "Samadhi Pure Yang Foundation Building Experience" and "Five Thunder Orthodox Method Cultivation Experience" given to him by Zhang Nanshan were like opening a door to a new world for him. He finally understood why Zhang Nanshan had said that his foundation was different from that of the Yunyin Sect.

The Yunyin Sect's inherited methods emphasize the continuity, nourishment, and transformation of spiritual energy, as flexible as water. In contrast, the "Samadhi Pure Yang Foundation Building Insights" takes a more forceful and aggressive approach, focusing on using the heart as a furnace and essence, energy, and spirit as fuel to ignite the pure Yang fire within the body, tempering spiritual power and building a foundation for the Dao. The resulting spiritual power is domineering, scorching, and extremely aggressive.

Chen Anran tried to guide the meager spiritual energy within his body according to the instructions. At first, it was extremely difficult, but whenever he reached a crucial point, a faint yet exceptionally pure warmth seemed to be stirred deep within his dantian, making the condensation of pure yang fire much smoother.

"Could this be the fierce and powerful intent that Master Zhang spoke of, which lies dormant within me?" Chen Anran wondered to himself. Perhaps it was related to his soul from his two lifetimes, or perhaps to the existence of the Museum of Evolution.

However, Chen Anran did not dare to be reckless and cultivated step by step every day. Although his realm was still stuck at the peak of the early stage of Qi Refining, he could feel that his foundation was being strengthened little by little, and his spiritual power also had a scorching characteristic.

As for "The Five Thunder Orthodox Method," its exquisite methods and unique perspectives on invoking and controlling the power of thunder and lightning gave him a completely new understanding of the use of "power." Although he is currently unable to perform the true Five Thunder Orthodox Method, the techniques and insights into controlling violent energy have greatly inspired him to understand how to more efficiently utilize the immense Buddhist power when "possessed by an Arhat."

The four display cases inside the Museum of Evolution are also operating efficiently.

The evolution of the [Diamond Relic (Embryo)] is progressing slowly but steadily, and it is expected to take more than three months to complete.

The century-old sandalwood prayer beads, tainted by malevolent Buddhist power, have been placed in another display case and are beginning their evolution into detoxifying beads.

The broken "telepathic" Buddhist mirror also occupies the third display case and is being transformed into the "Mirror of Enlightenment".

The first display case, as always, is responsible for producing spiritual rice and spiritual vegetables.

On this day, Chen Anran was practicing a set of power-generating techniques derived from the "Five Thunder Orthodox Method" in a secluded spot on the back mountain. Although there was no lightning flashing, the whistling wind of his fists carried a hint of fierce and powerful momentum.

"Tsk tsk, junior brother, what kind of wild style are you practicing? It looks like you're about to fight someone to the death." Feng Xiaolu wandered over at some point, a green grass stem dangling from his mouth, leaning lazily against the rough tree trunk, his bright eyes full of curiosity.

Upon hearing the sound, Chen Anran stopped his stance, his breathing gradually calming down, his chest rising and falling slightly from the exertion. He raised his hand to wipe the fine sweat from his forehead and smiled, "Just some casual practice, to loosen up my muscles."

Feng Xiaolu moved closer, almost touching him, tilting her head to look him up and down, and said suspiciously, "I feel like you've been acting a bit strange lately? You're always keeping to yourself, and when you cultivate, you're always acting suspiciously. Tell me, did Grandpa Zhang secretly teach you some powerful techniques?"

I never expected that my third senior sister, who is usually so carefree, would have such a sharp intuition.

However, Chen Anran did not intend to hide this, and frankly said, "Yes, Master Zhang passed on all the cultivation methods of their Longhu Mountain to me."

"Tch, I don't believe you for a second." Feng Xiaolu curled her lip, indicating that she didn't believe it at all. How could the inheritance of Longhu Mountain be passed on so easily? However, she didn't think too much about it and instead said enthusiastically, "By the way, Fatty Li sent word that 'Yunyin Xiaozhu' is basically finished. He asked when we can open. He said the location is good, the decoration is elegant, and we're just waiting for our 'celestial background' to bless us and make it a hit!"

Chen Anran thought for a moment and said, "Then let's do it tomorrow. I'll send a text message to Chairman Zhao later and ask him to bring some people over to try it and show his support."

Feng Xiaolu rolled her eyes and said, "You can't just fleece one sheep at a time."

Chen Anran laughed heartily at her joke.

The two chatted for a while. Feng Xiaolu stretched lazily, moving her slender yet strong waist like a lazy cat. Suddenly remembering something, she looked at Chen Anran with bright eyes: "By the way, junior brother, I have something to tell you. I'm also going down the mountain in a few days."

Chen Anran was about to continue the drill when she heard this and paused. "Going down the mountain? Does Senior Sister know?"

"I haven't told Senior Sister yet, I just wanted to let you know." Feng Xiaolu waved her hand, looking like she had "she has her own plans," her face beaming with barely concealed excitement. "This time I'm not just wandering around aimlessly, it's serious business! I landed a super big order in the 'Mutual Help Taoist Group'!"

"A mega order?" Chen Anran couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? Is it dangerous?"

Seeing his concern, Feng Xiaolu became even more smug and deliberately kept him in suspense. She put her hands behind her back, swayed on her tiptoes, and said mysteriously, "Hehe, the specifics... well, that's a secret for now! But I can tell you this: if this deal goes through, it'll earn you more than you did by taking advantage of Chairman Zhao!"

Chen Anran didn't ask any further questions, only saying, "Be careful out there."

Feng Xiaolu wrapped her arms around Chen Anran's neck and said with a grin, "Don't worry! Your third senior sister is very powerful! Besides, we still have so many powerful magical artifacts you gave us."

She released Chen Anran, patted his shoulder, and said, "While I'm gone, you must take good care of the house and look after Senior Sister and Xiao Ling'er. When I return victorious, I'll bring you all delicious food!"

After saying that, Feng Xiaolu skipped away.

Chen Anran watched her retreating figure and smiled helplessly. Her senior sister was so timid, yet she dared to take on such a "big job".

However, considering that she had been in this line of work for so many years and that Zhang Nanshan was secretly protecting her in the group, Chen Anran didn't have any worries about her.

With the second and third senior sisters gone, the mountain will become quiet again.
