Chapter 125: Live a Wonderful Life
【Equipment】:
Main: Ancient Stone Tablet (sealed): 5720/10000000
Sub: Heavenly Net for Exorcising Evil
Sub: Thousand Transformations (sealed): 104/100000
Sub: Runying Golden Needle
When Wang Chen summoned the Cultivation Panel, he noticed a significant transformation in the equipment section.
Not only were all his special equipment displayed, but they were also categorized into main and sub items, much like techniques!
The Ancient Stone Tablet occupied the primary position.
Its total seal points reached an astounding 10 million, utterly overshadowing the Exorcising Net and Thousand Transformations.
Its rank was so elevated that it bordered on the inconceivable!
Wang Chen couldn’t help but sigh in awe.
It was precisely due to the Ancient Stone Tablet’s exalted rank that the original owner failed to activate it, leading to the obliteration of his spirit.
Without the Cultivation Panel’s assistance,
his fate would likely mirror the original owner’s—arriving in this world only to have his soul scattered in terror.
Now, the Ancient Stone Tablet had become Wang Chen’s primary life tool.
It would evolve alongside him, gradually revealing its true splendor until it was fully unsealed!
Wang Chen now comprehended.
It was the Ancient Stone Tablet’s exceptionally high rank that enabled him to wield the Heavenly Net for Exorcising Evil and Thousand Transformations.
Main and sub.
And the primary life tool was governed by the Cultivation Panel.
This granted him, a mere Qi Training cultivator, the opportunities others could only dream of!
Indeed, whether it was the Ancient Stone Tablet, the Heavenly Net for Exorcising Evil, or the Thousand Transformations,
there were endless mysteries awaiting Wang Chen’s discovery.
"I will live well in this world for you."
Wang Chen silently pledged in his heart to the original owner, who had already dissipated and merged: "Live a wonderful life!"
As soon as those words resonated in his heart,
his soul trembled profoundly!
A heart of the path became exceptionally vibrant and vivid, and the spiritual energy from the surrounding space surged into his body.
He felt as light as if he could soar to the heavens.
At this moment, Wang Chen was no longer estranged from this world.
Today, he truly knew himself!
A significant hidden danger within Wang Chen was completely eradicated.
Even if an ancient powerhouse were to unleash their formidable abilities before him, they would never discern his true origins!
Wang Chen clasped his hands together, and the letter left to the original owner by Wang Shaoyuan immediately turned to dust.
Let all the secrets remain buried deep within his memories.
…
"Achoo!"
Wang Chen sneezed loudly and awoke.
Perhaps it was due to the immense mental strain from yesterday, or maybe because he had finally resolved the issue with his soul.
He felt unusually relaxed and had no idea when he had drifted into a deep slumber in his bedroom.
Upon opening his eyes, Wang Chen saw Little Yuan Yuan sprawled on his chest.
"Ying ying!"
He reached out to pet her and chuckled, "Are you hungry? I’ll fetch you a piece of jerky."
This little guy has quite the appetite.
Three meals a day, each packed with meat, and she devours three pounds at a time, yet still craves more!
Her stomach seems like a bottomless pit, and it’s a mystery where all the nutrients go.
She doesn’t seem to be growing any taller!
"Ying ying!"
"What? You say you’ve already eaten?"
"Ying ying!"
"What? You opened my storage bag?!"
"Ying ying!"
"What? You ate three pieces of jerky?!!"
"Ying ying!"
Wang Chen rolled over and sat up, patting his head.
He needed to make sense of this.
Concerned that Yuan Yuan might wander off if left alone at home, he had taken her with him to Xuan Gui yesterday.
Then they returned home together.
But this morning, since he hadn’t fed her, the little guy had somehow managed to open Wang Chen’s storage bag by herself to get food!
Wang Chen felt as though a small knife had been thrust into his back—he was utterly astonished.
Do monsters really possess such abilities?
This truly touched upon a gap in his knowledge.
But when he thought about the spirit beasts, great beasts, and beast kings that could rival the Purple Palace, Golden Core, or even Yuan Ying, capable of speaking human language and transforming into human form, it seemed only natural for them to use a storage bag.
Yuan Yuan possessed the same ability; it must be her innate talent!
Wang Chen suddenly realized that he had likely underestimated Yuan Yuan’s capabilities.
He stroked his chin and scooped up the little guy. “Yuan Yuan, let’s go!”
As he left home, he found a tailor shop on a nearby street.
The elegant shop owner was taken aback after hearing Wang Chen’s request. “You want to add a storage bag?”
Wang Chen confirmed, “Yes.”
He wanted to commission two spirit pet vests for Yuan Yuan, each equipped with a storage bag.
The challenge was that Yuan Yuan was so tiny; the matching vest and storage bag would have to be miniature!
The shop owner, having never handled such an order before, seemed hesitant. “The storage bag will need to be crafted separately, and the cost might be higher than usual. Is that acceptable?”
“No problem.”
Wang Chen promptly handed over a pouch of spirit stones as a deposit.
The reason he wanted the vests with storage bags was to make it easier for Yuan Yuan to access her own food in the future.
Since she had such abilities, it only made sense to utilize them.
Raising a spirit pet was remarkably similar to raising a child, and the expenses might even be greater!
With the little guy’s appetite, if it had been the old Wang Chen, he wouldn’t have been able to afford her upkeep even by selling all his hundred pounds of flesh.
Yuan Yuan: “Ying ying!”
The shop owner personally took her measurements and complimented, “What an adorable little guy!”
Of course!
Otherwise, Wang Chen wouldn’t have fallen into this predicament.
They agreed to return in three days to collect the items.
Just as he was about to leave with Yuan Yuan, the shop owner smiled and asked, “Fellow traveler, won’t you get your spirit pet a spirit beast bag as well?”
She presented four or five spirit beast bags to Wang Chen.
A spirit beast bag, as the name suggests, is a pouch designed to house spirit pets and magical beasts, functioning similarly to a storage bag.
However, spirit beast bags have a smaller capacity and are significantly more expensive than storage bags.
Typically, a spirit beast bag can only hold one spirit pet, while those capable of holding multiple pets often come with a hefty price tag!
The spirit beast bags the shop owner displayed were all exquisitely crafted and appeared far more luxurious than the storage bags.
Yuan Yuan, perched on Wang Chen’s shoulder, suddenly sparkled with excitement: “Ying ying ying!”
In mouse language, that translated to: I want it, I want it, I want it!
Very well then.
Wang Chen had no temper left. “Just give me the smallest one.”
The shop owner’s peach blossom eyes curved with a smile. “I see your spirit pet is a girl. Would you like to add…?”
After one incense stick, Wang Chen emerged from the tailor shop, pale and leaning against the wall.
The shop owner was truly formidable.
Even with Wang Chen’s Heavenly Dragon Vajra True Method cultivated to the Golden Body level, he couldn’t withstand her relentless probing of his weaknesses, repeatedly extracting every last resource from him.
He felt almost drained!
The flattened storage bag seemed to sob quietly.
Wang Chen spoke earnestly to the content Little Yuan Yuan, “My dear girl, promise me that when you grow up, please don’t marry someone from far away. Let’s just have a son-in-law come to our home.”
Little Yuan Yuan: “Ying ying ying~”
Wang Chen sighed heavily.
He glanced back at the tailor shop, which seemed like a spider’s den, and silently vowed,
Even if I, Wang Chen, jump from the top of the Star Observation Pavilion, I will never visit that shop again!
…
The next day, Wang Chen returned to Wei Hall B Ten and went to his spirit fields.
This time, he didn’t ask for help from the harvesters and took it upon himself to harvest the ripe rice with a sickle.
“Wang Xiaoge!”
Just as Wang Chen was working enthusiastically, a voice suddenly called out from beside him, “Let me help you.”
He turned to see Han Dashih from the neighboring house holding a sickle beside him.
They worked together to harvest the rice.
Wang Chen was pleasantly surprised and grateful. “Thank you, Uncle.”
Although he could have managed this little task on his own, there was no need to refuse someone’s kindness.
“No need for that between neighbors!”
Han Dashih reminded him, “I’ve finished all my harvesting. You better hurry to pay your rent; the rice purchasing price in the city dropped almost by twenty percent yesterday, and it might fall even further today!”
This year was unusual. Not only was the weather favorable, but the Grandmaster had waived thirty percent of the rent for the fields.
Furthermore, the spirit rice payments were based on weight now and were no longer exploited by the Spirit Plant Hall.
The spiritual plant farmers in the outer sect could all enjoy a bountiful harvest.
However, while the harvest was high, the selling prices had plummeted.
Moreover, goods sold in the city, especially cultivation resources, had increased in price significantly!
Although farmers could hold onto their rice and not sell it, their daily living expenses were still necessary, increasing the pressure on households with families.
Especially for families with children who have cultivation potential, they couldn’t afford to cut costs for their children’s futures!
Han Dashih’s two kids had decent root bones, which brought up a wave of emotions.
Wang Chen pondered for a moment and asked, “Uncle Han, why don’t you plant more fields? I can transfer my ten acres of spirit fields to you.”
He had originally planned to return his spirit fields to Wei Hall.
Now he had changed his mind.
Han Dashih was surprised. “You’re not planting anymore?”
Wang Chen smiled. “I’m going to the inner sect.”
Clatter!
The sickle in Han Dashih’s hand fell to the ground.
