Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

Miss, this can easily lead to misunderstandings!

Wang Chen watched helplessly as Yun Feifei, who was holding onto his sleeve, quickly let go with a flush of embarrassment on her pretty face upon realizing the issue.

Wang Chen couldn't help asking, "Did you finish all the Spirit Rice you traded for last time?"

Devouring five thousand catties of Spirit Rice in just four months, could she be one of those legendary Gluttonous Beasts that never show their true form?

Yun Feifei explained, "I used it to brew some Spiritual Wine, and unexpectedly, a Yin wind outbreak occurred..."

Through some indirect questioning, Wang Chen finally understood why Yun Feifei and Sun Yulian wanted to buy three 'superior grains' of Spirit Rice from him.

It turned out that long-term consumption of this type of Spirit Rice could effectively improve resistance to Yin Sha Energy.

Cultivators infected with Yin Sha Energy who eat this rice can also benefit from its therapeutic properties.

The key is that the nature of the rice is mild and nourishing, and regular consumption is beneficial to the body, even aiding in cultivation.

The recent Yin wind outbreak lasted over four months, and although it has subsided, based on past experience, the environment of the Yin Nether Realm will have a greater negative impact on cultivators for the next half-year to a year.

This impact is mainly due to the pervasive Yin Sha Energy in heaven and earth!

Once cultivators are infected with Evil Qi, at best they need to spend a lot of time and effort to purge it, and at worst, it could damage their foundation.

In such circumstances, the role of the superior grains of Spirit Rice becomes prominent.

"Now you can't buy the three 'superior grains' anywhere in the city..."

Yun Feifei's information was obviously much more up-to-date than Wang Chen's, "Even if it's available, the price will certainly be much higher, which is why Yulian and I are asking for Senior Brother's help."

So that's how it is!

Wang Chen had a sudden realization; he had inadvertently seized an early opportunity with his pioneering farming.

"Don't worry, Senior Brother."

Yun Feifei continued, "We will purchase at market price and won't let you suffer a loss."

"That's easy to say."

Wang Chen said with a smile, "Then I'll also give you a thousand catties."

With his Vajra Invulnerability, he had no fear of the Yin Sha Energy and therefore didn't have any extra demand for the Spirit Rice.

Yun Feifei and Sun Yulian were willing to pay a high price to buy it, which naturally was a nice profit for him.

Moreover, this Junior Sister has a good character and always shares important information with him at the first opportunity.

It was necessary to maintain a good relationship.

As the two were talking, a middle-aged cultivator wearing a white robe and a high crown ascended to the lectern in the grand hall.

An invisible aura of authority immediately enveloped the entire scene.

Golden Core True Person!

The once noisy and bustling hall fell instantly silent; all the disciples quieted down like cicadas in winter, gazing at the lectern with reverence for the Golden Core True Person.

The next moment, a deep voice resonated, "Fellow practitioners, we meet White Monarch True Person."

"Disciples pay respects to True Person White!"

All the Purple Mansion cultivators saluted in unison.

White Monarch True Person, who was seated at the lectern, nodded slightly, "Dispense with the formalities."

His voice was not loud but rang clearly into everyone's ears present, like a resounding bell.

It captivated the soul.

This White Monarch True Person was the head of the Law Hall of the Weifa City Sect, in charge of all affairs of the West Sea Sect in the Yin Nether Realm.

A high-tiered Golden Core cultivator!

Wang Chen had long heard of White Monarch True Person's great reputation, but it was the first time he had seen this head of the Law Hall since he had been in the Yin Nether Realm.

It was said that White Monarch True Person rarely showed himself, spending most of his time cultivating in a secret hall.

He would only appear to take charge in times of significant crisis in Weifa City.

Today, he summoned the pioneering disciples, including Wang Chen, obviously for a reason.

When Yin winds subside, new Evil Nests emerge.

Although this year's Yin wind had completely receded, due to the accumulation of Yin Sha Energy, many newly formed Evil Nests had appeared around Weifa City.

```

If these Evil Nests are not promptly cleansed and are allowed to grow and expand, they will pose a serious threat to the Defense Areas and even to Weifa City.

In the past, many Defense Areas have been destroyed by the havoc brought by Evil Nests!

White Monarch True Person demanded that all Disciples immediately conduct a comprehensive search of their territories to root out these newly formed Evil Nests.

Newborn Evil Nests are the easiest to deal with, but they are often very well-hidden, which requires patience and experience.

"All gains from the eradication of Evil Nests shall belong to the individual,"

said White Monarch True Person loudly, "If you seize Nest Stones, you can exchange them for three thousand to thirty thousand merits!"

As soon as the Golden Core True Person's words fell, the hall instantly buzzed with excitement.

Many Cultivators showed excitement and agitation.

But there were some who didn't understand what it meant.

Including Wang Chen.

It was Yun Feifei who "enlightened" him on the side.

It turned out that the Evil Nests from the Yin Nether Realm are quite special; these Evil Nests themselves are a type of very special Evil Spirits that can coexist with other monsters and Evil Wraiths, which is completely different from the Evil Nests in the Mountain and Sea Realm.

After such an Evil Nest is destroyed, there's a certain chance to obtain its evil core, also known as a Nest Stone.

Nest Stones are treasures even more valuable than Yin Qi Pearls, which can be exchanged for merits.

But the exchange rate White Monarch True Person had just announced was a lot higher than before, at least double!

Of course, the Evil Nests varied in size, and the Nest Stones varied in quality.

"If we just get three or four small Nest Stones..."

Yun Feifei spoke in a low voice, "we can exchange them for the merits needed for entering the meridian!"

This was undoubtedly a great opportunity to earn merits. If it weren't for the Golden Core True Person overseeing the scene, some people would probably have rushed out to cleanse the Evil Nests already.

Evil Nests are not cabbages in the field; finding them depends on luck, and the longer the delay, the more troublesome it becomes.

Seeing that the morale of the Disciples was high, White Monarch True Person did not continue to dally and immediately declared the meeting adjourned.

After the master of Weifa City left, the hall immediately erupted into chaos.

Many Disciples gathered in groups of threes and fives, discussing collaborating to cleanse the Evil Nests.

Evil Nests were by no means pushovers and were sure to conceal unpredictable dangers. Compared to going at it alone, forming a group was undoubtedly much safer and more reliable.

Especially those Cultivators who had been in the Yin Nether Realm for a few years, they quickly formed multiple teams.

Some even recruited team members on the spot.

The hall became noisy and lively.

"Junior Brother Wang."

Yun Feifei asked, "Have you found a suitable team?"

Wang Chen shook his head, "No."

Yun Feifei's eyes lit up, "Then how about joining our team? I'd already arranged to go with Junior Sister Sun Yulian and the others!"

An all-female army?

Wang Chen hesitated for a moment but still politely declined, "I currently have no plans to join a team."

He was already accustomed to being on his own and didn't think joining Yun Feifei's team would be any better.

"That's fine then,"

Yun Feifei did not insist. "You can join us anytime you want; our team always welcomes you!"

Wang Chen nodded, "Thank you."

He took out two thousand jin of Spirit Rice to trade with Yun Feifei and Sun Yulian, directly exchanging it for Spirit Stones.

Yun Feifei did not take advantage of Wang Chen, offering a high rate of one and a half spirits per jin, which amounted to ten thousand for two thousand jin.

This was much higher than the normal price of three jin per spirit.

Both parties were very satisfied.

These past few days, I've had the will but lacked the strength to update; things should return to normal in a few days. I hope all the bad things pass quickly, and here's to a new atmosphere in the New Year!
