Chapter 169: Can Be Torn Down
Ji Yang looked at the few wooden houses that were neither extravagant nor space-efficient, and he thought to himself,
“Is it really okay to tear one down?”
At the peak, there were four wooden houses in total: one was for Ye Wuchen’s residence, one was for Ji Yang’s, and the other two were used for storing miscellaneous items.
Since Ye Wuchen was alone, he didn’t need so many wooden houses; they could be torn down.
After some contemplation, Ji Yang nodded slightly.
This could work.
The number four was not very auspicious, so tearing one down would be good!
Which one should he tear down?
He decided to start with the one used for storage. It contained a few books, but after Ji Yang came to the mountain, he had already read most of them and later turned it into a granary.
Little Black ate a lot, and now there was also Little White.
The granary would probably not be needed anymore.
Moreover, with the increase of spiritual fields, how much spiritual grain could such a small wooden house hold? Better to tear it down!
The more Ji Yang thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed, and he already took out the iron pick to start the renovation project.
In no time, the old, shabby wooden house transformed into a flat piece of ground.
Looking at the newly cleared spiritual field, Ji Yang nodded but still felt somewhat unsatisfied.
Such a small area couldn’t grow much spiritual grain.
Let’s tear down another one!
This time, he decided to take down his own living space.
After all, he hardly stayed there, and he didn’t need to cultivate inside. He could simply return for a couple of days and stay in the spiritual field instead; it was more convenient and faster.
It could be torn down!
Ji Yang took action again and demolished the other wooden house.
The Golden Valiant Warrior beside him remained silent for a long time.
Although Ji Yang didn’t say anything, based on his recent observations, it was clear that anyone who could occupy a peak in this sect must have extraordinary strength.
Moreover, he could sense the sharp sword intent emanating from the wooden houses, which was not something an ordinary cultivator could possess; even in Ancient Times, such a cultivator would have a place of their own.
From the perspective of the Golden Valiant Warrior, Ji Yang’s actions were akin to digging up someone’s ancestral graves.
An ancestral grave might only affect one’s reputation, but tearing down his old home was far worse.
And tearing down a home just to plant a little more spiritual grain—such actions left him speechless.
Looking at the newly cleared half-section of the spiritual field, Ji Yang smiled and shifted his gaze toward the remaining two wooden houses.
Since Ye Wuchen hadn’t returned yet, why not?
No, no!
Tearing down two houses was already enough.
The remaining wooden house was for Ye Wuchen’s residence, while the other was used for storing his belongings. If both were torn down, Ji Yang worried he might meet an early demise.
He thought it would be better to wait until he inherited Jingtan Peak to tear it down.
After all, this peak would eventually belong to him.
With that thought in mind, Ji Yang stopped his actions and quickly began to clear the newly opened space.
While creating spiritual fields, Ji Yang left a patch of land for planting spiritual plants he might later obtain.
Although he didn’t have any at the moment, he was sure he would in the future.
After finishing everything, Ji Yang looked around and couldn’t help but nod in approval.
Perfect.
Having been with He Dao Sect for more than a year, he had already taken over a mountain, and he wondered how long it would take to take over the entire sect.
In the fields, Little Black, having just finished its work, walked excitedly toward the wooden house.
After catching bugs for a while, it had gained some experience; now it just needed to wait a few hours before returning—it was its time to rest.
However, when Little Black reached the familiar wooden house and saw the space transformed into a spiritual field, it fell into confusion.
Where is my big home?
Seeing Ji Yang busy nearby, Little Black held back the impulse to shout at him!
It resisted!
In the evening, Ji Yang lay on the ridge covered with dry weeds, gazing up at the endless starry sky, feeling a touch of nostalgia.
Since he arrived, he had been busily practicing every moment and hadn’t had the chance to relax like this for a long time.
Leaving aside the realm, living a life of rising with the sun and resting with the sunset wasn’t too bad.
“Aren’t you going to practice?”
At that moment, the Golden Valiant Warrior’s voice came, filled with disappointment.
“Senior, you jest; I am always practicing, otherwise how could I have such a realm?”
The Golden Valiant Warrior swept a glance at Ji Yang, noticing he didn’t sense any fluctuations of spiritual energy.
Practicing? Practicing, my foot.
Thinking of Ji Yang’s actions today, the Golden Valiant Warrior urged,
“Practicing is like sailing against the current; if you don’t move forward, you will retreat. With your talent, you must work harder; otherwise, how will you withstand the great calamity that’s coming?”
“Besides…”
Listening to the endless chatter of the Golden Valiant Warrior, Ji Yang looked a bit strange.
Why was he hearing such words from this Ancient Soul? It felt somewhat unreal.
After all, they were still considered half enemies; even though Ji Yang had done nothing serious to him for now, it didn’t mean there wouldn’t be conflicts between them later.
Hearing the advice, Ji Yang soon fell into a deep sleep.
The Golden Valiant Warrior, still trying to guide him, noticed Ji Yang’s steady breathing and glanced at him again, snorting coldly,
“Such a fool is not worth relying on!”
Once he regained his strength, he would definitely seize this child’s body!
This thought echoed in the mind of the Golden Valiant Warrior.
The next day, Ji Yang woke up in the fields.
Smelling the fragrant earth around him, Ji Yang felt refreshed and at ease.
Last night’s sleep was great; it felt like listening to the teacher earnestly lecturing while students drifted through a sea of dreams below.
Looking around, he saw that the spiritual grains he planted yesterday, after being watered, had now sprouted. Some of the sprouts even had White Light Points appearing on them.
Although not every rice sprout had them, the wide area covered resulted in a good harvest overall.
Strength +1
Agility +1
Spirit +1
…
After absorbing all the Light Points produced, Ji Yang called over Little White and Little Black.
The two beasts looked at each other in confusion and then began to whisper.
Little White: What’s happening?
Little Black: I don’t know; let’s wait and see.
Hearing their conversation, Ji Yang pretended not to notice, though his expression showed a hint of seriousness.
This made the two beasts feel uneasy; now that they couldn’t fight back, they could only submit to Ji Yang’s overwhelming presence.
Ji Yang first turned his gaze to Little White and said slowly,
“Little White, you have been performing well lately; I’ve noticed. However…”
“The rain distribution schedule still needs improvement. Twice a day is too little; let’s change it to four times a day from now on!”
“Also, the rain must cover the entire Jingtan Peak; not a single rice sprout should be overlooked! Do you understand?”
Little White froze at his words, feeling a surge of impulse to rush forward and fight Ji Yang!
He was just a newly born True Spirit; although his talent was exceptional, it consumed a lot of spiritual energy, and four times a day was intense!
A True Dragon’s revenge is not too late after twenty years!
A True Dragon’s revenge is not too late after twenty years!
…
Little White suppressed his anger, constantly reminding himself.
Seeing that Little White did not openly refute, Ji Yang nodded in satisfaction and then turned his gaze to Little Black.
At that moment, Little Black sensed Ji Yang’s gaze, and his uneasy feelings began to turn into reality.
“Little Black, your performance is good too, but you need to work with a bit more enthusiasm.”
“However, that’s not a big deal; from now on, you will oversee the spiritual insects in the spiritual fields of the peak. How does that sound? Are you satisfied?”
