Cultivation begins with harvest.

Chapter 240 The Sky Corridor

No sooner had Master Fusong left than Master Juanhe arrived.

"This is the sect's first reward for you. You have talent, which is worthy of a reward in itself. Even if you only show your potential, it is still a merit for the sect. However, you will not receive this reward until you reach the Foundation Establishment stage. It is a reward for your minor merit, so we will not discuss it for now. The third reward will be given at the Hall of Virtue. Come to the Hall of Virtue within three days, and you will receive it. Go with Fusong. This is the Hall of Virtue's way of indicating that the Earth Hall and Purple Spirit Peak will have other arrangements for you." Daoist Juanhe nodded to Chen Guang and then rode away on his crane.

On the other side, whenever Daoist Fusong arrived at a spiritual field, he would perform hand seals and spells for a long time. It seemed that the stars in the sky were shining, forming a simple star map. The spiritual plants covered by the star map would become clear for a while and then become illusory. After a while, they would go to Daoist Fusong's true peak.

Seeing Fu Song Dao Ren busy at work, Chen Guang felt somewhat at a loss.

"Let me call you Junior Brother one last time while I still have the chance." Wan Longjing was the first to fly over. "I did expect you to receive this reward today, but seeing it in person still makes me want to exclaim in admiration. Junior Brother Chen, just wait here. You don't need to worry about me. I'll come to Tianheng Plain to find you another day."

"Okay." Chen Guang and Wan Longjing hugged each other tightly.

Senior Brother He from the Earth Hall then approached with a smile: "Congratulations, Junior Brother! Congratulations, Junior Brother! Purple Spirit Peak is called a mountain, but in reality it is a cluster of mountains and peaks. The inner sects are all located at the foot of the mountain, where the concentration of spiritual energy is at least three times richer than here. Among them, the Earth Hall has the largest territory, which is beyond doubt. The Sage Hall and the Scripture Hall are special, as they are located outside of humans. In terms of the size of their territory, the Earth Hall is the first, followed by the Living Spirit Hall."

"But that's where ordinary stewards live. Those of you who were exceptionally promoted, like Junior Brother, have real cave dwellings. The cave dwellings of the top 100 in the five-year minor competition are actually just a three-courtyard house in a good location, in an area called Xiangtianpo." The name is auspicious, but it can't compare to Tianheng Plain where you are, after all, there's the Chuqiao Mountains in between. So, since the journey is long, Junior Brother should pack his things and set off as soon as possible, so as not to keep Daoist Fusong waiting any longer."

Chen Guang felt a chill run down his spine and inquired about the situation. He discovered that Fu Song Dao Ren and the others hadn't actually waited very long. It seemed they had anticipated Chen Guang's imminent return and arrived half a day early.

Chen Guang had quite a few storage magical artifacts, but they were not enough for some magical artifacts such as the Thousand Water Gourd and the Fire Array Flowerpot. When these items were taken out, Senior Brother He was stunned for a long time, but finally agreed to help him pass them on. This was also the purpose of Senior Brother He's visit.

After he had finished cleaning up, Daoist Fusong was already waiting on the flying boat. Looking at the spirit field, it was barren and desolate, even more so than if it had never been tended to. He felt a pang of reluctance.

That small courtyard, once vibrant and colorful, with spiritual plants climbing the walls, is now empty, with only a few empty rooms, doors, windows, and a stone table as its only remaining structure. A complex mix of emotions welled up in my heart.

After taking a few more glances, Fu Song Dao Ren and Chen Guang Duo gave a soft shout and steered the flying boat toward Tongtian Zifeng.

Looking down at the small buildings that appeared every so often, surrounded by several acres of spirit fields, Chen Guangcai realized that this was the personal territory of most of the deacon disciples.

Among the disciples, there is a distinction between outer and inner disciples, but within the sect's regulations, they are categorized as outer disciples, stewards, and...

The four levels of disciples are divided into Inner Sect, True Disciple, and Peak Master. Inner Sect is just a common abbreviation used by ordinary disciples for the disciples in charge.

"This is Xiangtianpo. Further ahead is the territory where the winners of the five-year junior competition reside. You see, it's obviously much wider now," Senior Brother He explained from the side.

Looking down at the buildings, Chen Guang saw that they were no longer just individual buildings, but rather a complex with courtyards, ponds, and buildings. This area was off-limits to non-disciples. Chen Guang had been brought in by his senior brother who possessed the Zhu Chizi last time, so he had no chance to fly over there. Chen Guang even saw the huge three-courtyard complex, a place only the top 100 cultivators in the five-year minor competition could possess.

"Huh, what's this?" At the edge of his vision, ten small hills of varying heights appeared, immediately eliciting a surprised exclamation from Chen Guang. All ten hills were bursting with spiritual energy, which surged into the sky and formed a thick spiritual mist. Within this mist, spirit insects resembling fireflies were flying leisurely, and even some blue-black flowers were blooming in the mist.

"It's the [Kui Ling Flower], a spiritual plant with cloud-like attributes. It only grows in pure cloud and true mist; even cloud soil cannot meet its growth requirements. It's one of the main ingredients for refining Spirit Vein Pills. Not only are other materials hard to find, but this Kui Ling Flower is equally rare." Daoist Fusong stroked his long beard and said, "These ten spiritual mountains on Xiangtian Slope are home to the top ten from the five-year minor competition. Each small peak has its unique features. The first peak, Yangfa, has a small pool of golden essence. Any artifact containing gold or iron placed in it will have all its damage repaired and impurities tempered, making it of even higher quality. The fifth peak, Guangrui, has a spiritual mirror that can bestow blessings, providing assistance in terms of luck and mental state, whether in alchemy, talisman making, or venturing out for training."

"According to their ranking, they can take away a corresponding number of Kui Ling Flowers from the Spirit Mist each year, but that's just the best small peak on Xiangtian Slope. Any one of the Chuqiao Mountains can easily surpass it. What we're going to is Tianheng Plain, which is more special and requires us to pass through here."

As the flying boat landed, the ten small peaks were about to fall behind when suddenly the window of the pavilion at the top of the second peak, "Qinghui," was pushed open. A white-clad young man with a ponytail, looking like a capable young swordsman, peeked out and glanced in their direction. At this moment, only Daoist Fusong, Chen Guang, and Senior Brother He were on Flying Boat Mountain. Only Chen Guang turned back to look at him twice before flying into the purple mist ahead.

Is it heading to Chu Qiao? Only deacons who maintain a top-ten ranking for two consecutive terms can enter Chu Qiao. This condition is incredibly difficult. Once you enter Chu Qiao, you're either never seen again, or you're already at the Foundation Establishment stage—

The white-clad youth recalled the secrets of Chuqiao Mountain once again. Although he found it difficult, he felt even more heroic. He memorized the young man in green he had just met and decided to take him as his banner!

Chen Guang had no idea what the young man he had just glanced at was thinking. He only saw the purple mist open up and a building in the sky appear before him. The outermost part consisted of huge floating rocks covered with moss and grass, but this did not conceal the countless intricate runes carved on them. The main body of the rocks was a spirit pine tree that Chen Guang envied.

【Yuanyu Pine】This is a resounding second-tier top-grade spiritual plant. As long as it is a hundred years old, this spiritual plant containing unique universe Dao charm can be used as one of the main materials for teleportation arrays. Here, there are thousands of flying rocks at a glance. Just by looking at the thickness of the trunk, you can see that these Yuanyu Pines are over ten thousand years old.

The flying rocks were linked together by silver-gray chains, the runes on them shining, causing extremely strong fluctuations in the universe. Chen Guang was absolutely certain that the pavilions and terraces in the very center were probably related to the teleportation array.

What is most eye-catching is the wooden bridge, made of planks and iron chains, that stretches out into the sky behind these buildings, which can be vaguely seen at this moment.

Master Fusong nodded, quite satisfied with Chen Guang's shocked reaction: "This is the Migration Corridor." Tianheng Plain is still far from here, but you can get there quickly through the Migration Corridor. You'll get used to it eventually.

.

Wait, Tianheng Plain is very far from here?

Chen Guang was stunned.
