Confucian and Taoist Cultivation Starting from the Equipment Slot

"A mission?" Song Zhiyuan's sudden arrangement caught him off guard.

But he still knows how to prioritize.

"Master, I also need your help with something."

"Oh? Please speak freely. There's no need for us, master and disciple, to be so polite."

Upon hearing Song Zhiyuan's words, Chen Zhuo recounted the details of his father's disappearance.

"Brother Chen has actually disappeared?"

After listening, Song Zhiyuan's face also showed a hint of seriousness.

A martial artist at Sequence 8 may not be as good as a literary cultivator at the same Sequence, but the difference is not significant.

A place that even Chen Tiansheng couldn't transmit information must be extraordinary.

Thinking of this, Song Zhiyuan took out a calligraphy brush.

"Watch closely, today I'm going to casually teach you a method of literary cultivation from the Mountain and Water School."

The brush strokes ink in the air, and a mountain range appears faintly in the sky.

I remember Chen Zhuo; he seems to be the same person as Qingshan who lives next door.

The moment the green mountain took shape, Chen Zhuo felt a mysterious force surge into it, as if the mountain range had come to life.

Without stopping, Song Zhiyuan took out the ink he had ground.

The ink shimmered with a purple light; it was clearly no ordinary product!

Then the words "stargazing" gradually took shape in the air.

With the final stroke, a powerful literary spirit soared into the sky, and a scene gradually unfolded before our eyes.

"Father!"

Chen Zhuo recognized it; the scene unfolding before him was the location of his father.

Then he saw how his father got to the cave and overheard the two demons talking in secret.

Unfortunately, there was no sound.

The scene continued to evolve, finally ending abruptly when Chen Tiansheng lost his temper.

Song Zhiyuan looked at the scene before him, feeling somewhat uneasy.

"Wait a minute! What happened next? Could it be that a powerful demon at the Core Formation stage appeared?"

"But if a powerful demon at the Core Formation stage had appeared, the literary tradition should have issued a warning long ago. Why hasn't it reacted?"

"Moreover, there is a peace treaty between humans and demons, and demons at the Core Formation stage cannot cross realms at will."

"How strange! How bizarre! It seems I must go and investigate this myself."

Thinking of this, he looked at Chen Zhuo.

"Look, this screen hasn't collapsed yet, which proves your father's life is not in danger. Don't worry, I'll go and check it out myself later."

He then pointed to the first note on the table.

"This is your task assignment, and next to it are the cultivation manuals."

After saying that, the word "transfer" appeared next to Song Zhiyuan, and he disappeared from the spot.

Seeing his master leave in such a hurry, without even having time to explain the mission in detail, he became even more worried.

Doesn't this just show that the situation isn't so optimistic?

After hesitating for a few seconds, he picked up the note on the table.

These things are completely useless now and won't help at all. What he needs to do is complete the tasks assigned by his master.

While doing so, we can also improve our strength.

"The essence of the art of landscape and literature lies in observing mountains and water. The mountains are majestic and immovable, while the water flows gently. The key is to resonate with a mountain. Qingshan County and Yishui are excellent places for this..."

Chen Zhuo just came out of the tent.

Chen Zheng asked anxiously, "How did it go? What did Scholar Song say?"

"Brother, rest assured, Master said Father is fine, and he has already gone there in person."

"That's good, that's good..." Chen Zheng kept repeating.

Suddenly, he looked at Chen Zhuo and said, "Brother, I won't stay here any longer. I'll go back and take care of some things at home."

After watching Chen Zheng leave, Chen Zhuo also went to the mission location that Chen Tiansheng had arranged for him.

It was a small mine not far from the camp.

His mission was to ensure that the people there could quickly mine all the exposed ore.

Exposed ore, after being eroded by the long night, will become waste and have no value for use.

This is another reason why we set up camp here.

As for why there are exposed minerals before each long night,

This is because the ore will grow on its own...

When Chen Zhuo saw the description in Song Zhiyuan's note, he was also completely bewildered.

Isn't ore something that's mined in one go? Why is it being discussed?

However, Song Zhiyuan did not explain this phenomenon in the note he gave him; he only mentioned it briefly.

As soon as Chen Zhuo walked in, a man who was engrossed in mining stood up.

"This must be Lord Chen!"

"I am."

Upon hearing Chen Zhuo's answer, Hong Gaoyuan's expression became somewhat excited.

"I am in charge of this small mine. I will trouble Lord Chen to eliminate the demons in the vicinity. Time is of the essence and the task is heavy. The ore in this mine must be mined out within three days."

After Hong Gaoyuan finished speaking, he continued to lead the work.

Chen Zhuo glanced at the crowd; their enthusiasm for work was exceptionally high, making Chen Zhuo want to dig a few times himself.

But he managed to suppress the urge.

He has more important things to do now.

That is to eliminate the demons in the vicinity.

With a thought, his literary energy enveloped his entire body, and his spiritual power slowly spread out. He "saw" a small group of crawlers not far away.

There were only about four or five of them.

After quietly assessing the situation, I determined there was no danger whatsoever.

Chen Zhuo easily eliminated it and obtained several demon materials.

They then walked around the entire mine shaft.

Two hours passed.

Chen Zhuo returned to the mine entrance, his pockets now containing more than a dozen demon materials.

"These conversions should amount to around ten or twenty points."

Now he realized that his junior sister had taken him to a truly high-risk area.

The intensity there is completely different from that here.

In his spare time, Chen Zhuo observed the miners.

Their movements were somewhat clumsy, but their rhythm was uniform.

If I'm not mistaken, these should be members of the Green Mountain Army.

However, he did not say anything to disturb them.

These people are really into it right now, so it would be bad to disturb them rashly.

He then began to look through the cultivation manuals left by his master.

The key step described above is to resonate with the mountains and rivers, using the power of the natural terrain to enhance the literary skills, which may allow the effects of the literary skills to transcend a level of proficiency.

Chen Zhuo glanced at his location, wondering if it was arranged by his master.

He is currently at the foot of a branch of the Green Mountain range.

It's a perfect time to observe the mountains and cultivate oneself.

After setting aside some of his attention to be vigilant about his surroundings, Chen Zhuo entered a state of cultivation.

He still sees the green mountains as green mountains, but these green mountains are not the same as the old ones; they are dynamic green mountains.

He didn't know how much time had passed when he felt a feedback coming from the green mountains.

Looking at the panel, his literary talent had actually increased by a little!

Is this the cultivation of mountains, rivers, literature, and Taoism? Chen Zhu murmured to himself.

Suddenly, a warning signal came from his mind.

Danger is rapidly approaching.

A "moon" character flashed past him.

Chen Zhuo's figure disappeared from the spot.

It was nighttime, and he activated the special effect of the Moon-shaped script!

【Literary Arts (Moon): When activated, it can temporarily reduce one's presence. If under the moonlight, it will temporarily become invisible.】

Chen Zhuo's figure appeared not far away.

Only now did he have time to examine the attacking demon; it was a ghoul!
