I created a paradise in the folk world.

Chapter 101 Full Power! Smash Through the Nest!

"Grandpa! Why did you leave like this? I haven't even spoken to Shen Yi yet!"

Lin Qingzhi puffed out her cheeks and looked at the old man entering the courtyard, speaking with dissatisfaction.

"What, do you expect Grandpa to shower him with concern and care over there?"

"What merit does this mere country bumpkin have to deserve your concern?"

Lin Song walked into the courtyard, and several of his disciples immediately came to greet him.

"Master! You're back."

"Is breakfast ready?"

"It's all ready."

Upon hearing this, Lin Song sat down on a stone bench to the side, and several wealthy young men immediately brought over the dishes.

The table was filled with meats that gleamed with a rich, spiritual light, and there were also many spiritual fruits. As Chen Fangqi brought out a bucket of spiritual rice, he immediately served him a bowl of rice.

"Master, please have your meal."

Lin Song nodded, took the rice bowl, and began to eat.

"Eat it all."

Upon hearing this, Chen Fangqi and the others took their seats.

These are all spiritual rice and spiritual meat that they brought from the town, which are of great benefit to cultivators.

The food in Yanling Village was too ordinary for them to eat.

"What, are you trying to spite me, thinking of just standing there without eating?"

Lin Song glanced at his beloved granddaughter standing to the side.

"snort!"

Lin Qingzhi snorted coldly, unmoved in the slightest.

"Junior sister, what's wrong with you?"

Chen Fangqi asked cautiously.

Lin Qingzhi has a bad temper and often throws tantrums, so they always have to coax her gently.

"He wanted to talk to that country bumpkin, so I brought him back," Lin Song said calmly.

Wild Boy —

Chen Fangqi and the others quickly realized who the wild boy their master was talking about was.

The person who saved my junior sister yesterday!

At that time, they noticed that their junior sister's attitude towards him was very strange.

Now it seems that my junior sister has fallen for that boy.

Chen Fangqi's heart clenched involuntarily.

He has always loved Lin Qingzhi, how could he accept that?

"Junior sister! You haven't fallen for that wild boy, have you? What has he done to deserve you?!"

Chen Fangqi couldn't help but stand up and shout.

"None of your business!" Lin Qingzhi shouted, raising her eyebrows.

"Junior sister, you—"

At this moment, Chen Fangqi's heart was bleeding.

Lin Song then spoke up, "If you want to talk to him, go ahead and do it. I'm not stopping you."

Lin Qingzhi immediately retorted coquettishly, "Who told you to walk so fast just now? How could I dare to talk to him on my own?"

"Hmph, is this my fault for walking too fast?"

"Anyway, it's all your fault."

Lin Qingzhi walked over, grabbed Lin Song's arm and started shaking it, acting coquettishly.

"Okay, okay, it's my fault, alright? Sit down and eat!"

Lin Song looked utterly helpless.

He only has one precious granddaughter, so naturally he has to spoil her in every way.

"no."

Lin Qingzhi continued shaking his arm, her eyes darting around as she came up with an idea. "Grandpa, what do you think about taking him under your wing as your apprentice?"

Lin Song's expression was even more helpless.

"How could a mere country bumpkin like him afford the apprenticeship fee?"

"I'll pay!" Lin Qingzhi said.

Upon hearing this, Chen Fangqi's already icy heart turned even colder.

"You'll also cover the lowest tier of food, cultivation resources, and medicinal pills every month?"

"It's just a small amount of money. Grandpa, you love me so much, please accept it."

Seeing his beloved granddaughter's persistence, Lin Song couldn't help but feel suspicious.

He knew his granddaughter's character best; she was usually arrogant and disdainful of the other family members, not even bothering to give them a second glance.

Could it be that Shen Yi has put some kind of bewitching spell on his granddaughter?

But if there really was a curse, there was no way he wouldn't have noticed.

What did this guy do to make Qingzhi so infatuated with him?

"Tell me, Qingzhi, what's going on between you and this kid? If you tell me, I'll take him in; otherwise, forget it."

"this----"

Lin Qingzhi glanced at the others, hesitated for a moment, and finally, under Lin Song's gaze, forced herself to speak: "He saved me yesterday."

"Saved you? What happened?!"

Lin Song's expression turned solemn. "You encountered danger yesterday? Why didn't you tell me!"

"I'm just afraid you'll punish me—"

Lin Qingzhi lowered her head, her voice growing softer and softer.

"you!"

"You're helping Qingzhi keep this from me too, aren't you?"

Lin Song glanced at his disciples, and seeing that they all had their heads bowed, he immediately said sternly, "Go back and copy the 'Heart Sutra of Purification' one hundred times each!"

"Grandpa, where is Shen Yi?"

Lin Song snorted coldly and said in a hard tone, "Since he saved you, I will give him a chance to become my disciple."

"Have a meal!"

"Hehe, Grandpa is the best to me!"

"This is the lantern ghost's lair. Every night, a bunch of lantern ghosts will rush out from under this pile of rocks."

After having dinner with Tang Qiang and the others.

Led by a middle-aged man from Yanling Village, Shen Yi and his companions arrived at a place eight miles north of Yanling Village.

This is an area covered with rocks, the terrain is desolate, and there are hardly any weeds.

Shen Yi and his men stood there, their gazes fixed on a depression beneath the pile of rubble.

The only question is where exactly the Lantern Ghost's lair will descend.

"Thank you, please go back now, we'll look around here a bit more."

Shen Yi then said, "By the way, we might not be able to go back tonight. Please tell Village Chief Tang and the others not to worry about us."

"Okay, I'll head back now."

The middle-aged man didn't waste any words, nodded, and turned to leave, heading back towards the village.

"Tonight we'll wipe out this lantern ghost's lair, and tomorrow we'll head back."

Shen Yi looked at the people beside him and said to them.

Then he looked around, searching for a suitable location to establish a base.

"Are we staying here tonight?" Mo Guanhai was taken aback and looked around.

The area is rocky and dense, making it quite difficult to establish a base before nightfall.

However, there are no second-tier monsters nearby, so it is relatively safe.

With the wooden puppet soldiers controlled by Shen Yi, they shouldn't have any problem spending the night in the open at night, right?

Mo Guanhai didn't really care, but he was more worried about Shen Kun, Shen Yuan, and Guan Yue. After all, their strength hadn't reached the late stage of the Qi and Blood Realm yet, and it would be too dangerous for them to act in the dark.

"This is it."

Just as Mo Guanhai was pondering, Shen Yi had already jumped into the stone pit and found a spot to lean against the stone wall.

Just build a level 1 Yin Wood wall here, creating a space that can accommodate the five of them.

Last time, he built a level 2 Yin Wood wall near the Lantern Ghost's lair in Black Mountain, but it turned out to be of little use.

This time, Shen Yi decided to save some effort and only build a level 1 Yin Wood wall.

We'll decide whether to upgrade the wall later tonight based on the actual situation.

Before Mo Guanhai could react to the meaning behind Shen Yi's sudden words, he saw black wooden branches suddenly sprout from his hand resting on the stone wall, instantly forming the shape of a wall!

"This...this is!"

Mo Guanhai's eyes widened immediately.

Is this really an ability that a wooden puppet cultivator could possess?

Then, he saw these black wooden branches fall to the ground at a speed visible to the naked eye, forming a solid wall!

A wall was built out of thin air?

Having witnessed this unbelievable scene firsthand, Mo Guanhai was deeply shocked and unable to calm down. As Shen Yi walked out from inside the wall, Mo Guanhai said in a dry voice, "Ah Yi, don't tell me that this is still the method of a wooden puppet cultivator."

"Not this time."

Shen Yi looked at him with a half-smile, shook his head and said, "This is my own innate ability; I can create all kinds of objects, including this wall."

"You kid, you're really hiding your true abilities, you've actually awakened such a talent."

Mo Guanhai struggled to calm his turbulent emotions and said earnestly, "Talent is a priceless treasure; you must make good use of it!"

"Isn't this taking advantage of the situation?"

Shen Yi patted the Yin Wood wall. "Tonight, let the wooden puppet soldiers break into the Lantern Ghost's lair. We'll stay here and wait to harvest the Yin Soul Wood at dawn tomorrow."

A calm smile appeared on his face.

Last time, he was able to take down a Lantern Ghost's lair with his level 4 wooden golems.

Now that the wooden puppet soldier has reached level 7, he doesn't take this lantern ghost's lair seriously at all.

All we have to do is wait for the harvest.

Once his strength increases further, he will be able to upgrade the wooden puppet soldier.

At that time, even the Blackwater Swamp will be nothing more than a sweet and delicious little cake in his eyes!

Next.

The five people then placed the items inside the wall.

He then took some time to start cultivating.

Even when they are out working, they try to make the most of their time and improve their skills.

"Fifth Master, your Qi and Blood have stabilized. Are there any signs of breaking through the shackles of the Qi and Blood Realm?"

As dusk fell, Shen Yi stopped what he was doing and had everyone take out the prepared monster meat to eat.

Taking advantage of this leisurely moment, he asked Mo Guanhai.

"I've at least touched the threshold. I tried to break through the Qi and Blood Realm shackles once before, but unfortunately I didn't succeed."

Mo Guanhai shook his head and smiled bitterly, then continued, "However, I have gained experience. If the time is right, I can try to break through to the Solidification Realm again."

Shen Kun leaned closer and asked curiously, "Fifth Master, is the next realm called the Solidifying Origin Realm?"

"That's right, your Qi and blood have broken through the barrier, consolidating your vital energy! At this stage, your body will firmly lock in your vital energy, and all external nourishment will be transformed into your power, without being lost!"

"At this stage, a martial artist's blood and qi strength will be more than ten times that of someone at the Blood and Qi Condensation Realm, resulting in a qualitative leap in both strength and speed!"

"Even ordinary second-tier spirits fear the essence blood of a martial artist in the Solidifying Yuan Realm, as it can burn their physical bodies!"

"Even low-level spirits cannot get close! It is truly a place where all evil spirits shun it!"

As Mo Guanhai finished speaking, his eyes shone with a bright light.

He once longed for the Solidifying Origin Realm.

Hearing his words, Shen Yi couldn't help but feel his heart surge with emotion.

He is still some distance from the Solidifying Origin Realm, but not far off.

Although wooden puppet soldiers can be used to kill monsters, who can resist the sense of security that comes with being powerful?

Shen Kun and the others were also filled with enthusiasm.

Shen Yi thought for a moment, then took out a core of essence and handed it over to Mo Guanhai under his astonished gaze.

He couldn't help but exclaim, "Ah Yi, what's wrong with you—"

Shen Yi smiled and said, "Fifth Master, with this essence helping you, you should be more confident in breaking through the shackles of the Qi and Blood Realm."

"The chances of success will definitely increase significantly."

Mo Guanhai's tone turned serious, "But this is reserved for you to use for a breakthrough!"

"Your potential is far greater than mine; we absolutely cannot waste resources on me!"

"Fifth Master, you are the only one among us who has already touched the shackles of the Qi and Blood Realm."

Shen Yi shook his head and said, "After today, you might be able to get even more essence, so you don't need to refuse."

""

"Fifth Master, since my elder brother has said so, you can take it!"

Shen Kun said in a deep voice, "Once you break through to the Solidifying Yuan Realm, a second-tier monster will attack our territory, and you'll have to go and defend it!"

"Alright, alright, then this old man will use this essence to quickly break through the shackles of the Qi and Blood Realm, and give you kids some support!"

Mo Guanhai laughed heartily upon hearing this and accepted the essence.

At this time.

The sky was growing increasingly dark.

As night fell, darkness descended.

The five men stood atop the wall, watching the situation outside with extreme vigilance.

Suddenly, a lot of noise came from afar, and the noise grew louder and louder.

Under Shen Yi's watchful gaze, large numbers of lantern ghosts multiplied in the darkness and spread outwards!

Their source is in a corner of a stone pit more than 20 meters away!

That's the lantern ghost's lair!

As a large number of lantern ghosts surged outwards, Shen Yi frowned.

We can't let too many lantern ghosts escape.

"forward!"

Shen Yi waved his hand.

Command the five wooden puppet soldiers to charge towards the Lantern Demon's lair!

After the upgrade, the wooden golem's mobility is much stronger than when it was level 4.

Level 7 wooden golems are almost indistinguishable from normal humans, with extremely fast charging speed!

Before long, the wooden puppet soldiers arrived at the lantern ghost's lair!

"Straight ahead, swing your sword!"

Shen Yi gave the order.

Tear—

Upon receiving the command, the level 7 wooden golem unleashed a fierce slash!

The branches and vines that had blocked the entrance to the cave by sensing the approaching foreign object were now being cut open, leaving a large gap!

Shen Yi's eyes lit up.

Previously, it took the level 4 wooden golem soldiers a long time to break through the dense vines blocking the cave entrance, creating only a small opening.

Now, a level 7 wooden golem can open the cave entrance with a single strike.

Countless lantern ghosts swarmed out through the gap!

They need to go out and find people to feed on!

Click! Click! Click!

However, before they had even flown half a meter out of the cave entrance, the five wooden puppet soldiers were already wielding their wooden swords!

Chop those densely packed lantern ghosts into pieces! Scatter them all over the ground!

They formed an impenetrable defense.

Not a single lantern ghost could escape their hunt!

Boom!

The lantern ghost inside the lair realized something was wrong.

Three-headed lantern demons emerged from the depths of the lair.

Upon witnessing their kind being relentlessly hunted by five strange creatures, they immediately let out a furious, sharp roar!

They charged forward all at once, their momentum incredibly fierce!

However, this was just as they entered the range of the wooden puppet soldier's "targeting" ability.

The two red lights on the face of the level 7 wooden puppet soldier suddenly flashed, locking onto the three-headed lantern ghost. Its speed suddenly increased, and its figure darted out as fast as a blur!

Swish Swish Swish—

The blades converged into a sharp net, instantly enveloping the three-headed lantern ghost. Its hard body, made of Yin Soul Wood, was torn to shreds!

As the level 7 wooden golem swept past, its feet landed steadily deep within the lair.

The three-headed lantern-carrying ghost instantly turned into a pile of wood chips and exploded everywhere!

Instant kill in the blink of an eye!

"Wow—that's too powerful!!"

This wooden puppet soldier completely shattered the Lantern Demon's lair!
