Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!-Chapter 193: Resurrection Talisman!

"Thank you, sir!" Yun Mo bowed and expressed his gratitude, thinking to himself that he would also have a strong backer in the future!

With an Elixir, Cultivation Techniques, a stable place to stay, and a formidable senior like Bai to guide him when in a good mood, the future was promising indeed.

Everyone was delighted, and the courtyard was enveloped in an atmosphere of joy.

It was already near noon when Jiang Yuan clicked to redecorate the homestead. He moved the rarely-used slaughterhouse to the far edge of the newly cleared fields and shifted the livestock pens to the riverside, clearing more farmland for Xiao Bai to irrigate.

He then crafted a fence at the workbench to separate his farmland from the bamboo grove.

He continued to cultivate new fields, plant crops, and thoroughly water them, working until after lunch. The seedlings sprouted, connecting into a vast, thriving field.

If not for the system’s clear reminder that Spirit Medicines couldn’t be hastened with Butterfly Demon Scale Powder, Jiang Yuan would have been tempted to spend big in the Spirit Medicine field for the entire afternoon.

"Yun Mo, take me to the Old Dragon Cave. Just pick me up before the Wilderness descends." Finally, no longer riding a paper crane, Jiang Yuan was a bit excited to ride his own steed for the first time.

"Sure!" Now having a prestigious spot in the courtyard, Yun Mo took a deep breath, flapped his enormous wings, and suddenly his body expanded.

The injuries had fully healed, and the newly-grown feathers were pitch-black and shiny, making him look even mightier after expanding in size.

He crouched down to let Jiang Yuan sit securely, and the powerful wings lifted them into the sky!

"Though somewhat clumsy, he’s quite a decent steed." Bai Yunqi squinted as he watched them fly further away, then swivelled his vertical pupils toward Hu Zhile, smirking insincerely, "Coveting the Venerable Family’s offerings? Try when you can defeat me."

Hu Zhile maintained her soft and fragile demeanor, smiling lightly, "Don’t be so hostile towards me, senior. We are all Demon Cultivators, and we know how we’ve cultivated along this path, it’s just about using our abilities.

Even if I cultivate to the same Realm as you, I know my combat strength is far inferior. But each demon has its strengths; there are things I can do that you might not be able to.

Instead of eyeing each other, why not team up for warmth? In the end, it’s all about becoming stronger and living more comfortably, advancing further on the path of cultivation, don’t you think?"

In fact, since she casually took out an Immortal Jade and indicated having means and channels, displaying her own ability and hinting her separation from her old master, Bai Yunqi’s attitude towards the fox demon softened a bit.

For not being excessively powerful in combat, the little fox demon managed to acquire Immortal Jade, clearly possessing strengths he did not.

Bai Yunqi was simply a bit proud, not jealous or petty, but he couldn’t concede verbally, "If you want to team up, you need skills I approve of. This matter isn’t urgent, beyond proving you’re valuable to the Venerable Family, at least disentangle from your old master.

The Venerable Family is temperate and doesn’t like to engage in too much worldly conflict, so don’t let your personal affairs disturb the peace of the courtyard and displease everyone."

"You’re absolutely right, senior. I’ll prove my strength to the gentleman and negotiate with the lady to ensure no trouble ensues." Hu Zhile learned from a young age that to get what she wants, she must fight for it. Even biting off others’ flesh to fatten herself for a better life.

She’s accustomed to the survival rule of seizing advantages and understands that integrating into a small group for benefits might cause rejection.

For now, the Realm difference means she can’t fight back; otherwise, she wouldn’t swallow her pride to be conciliatory.

Wan Mingchuan remained oblivious to outside matters. No matter their struggles, he will forever remain the Direct Disciple of his master, and no one could snatch that position.

The most urgent thing now was to seize every opportunity to cultivate, striving for early success in Foundation Establishment!

Jiang Yuan was unaware of the verbal sparring between a snake and a fox vying for the "Family Immortal" position. The Old Dragon Cave wasn’t far, and after Yun Mo dutifully carried out his duties, flying steadily and swiftly, it didn’t take long to reach the entrance, where he was told to return for cultivation and come back at the appointed time.

Upon entering the Old Dragon Cave and standing at the center of the Teleportation Array, he clicked to teleport for free to the World Tree. The next second, a flash of light and he appeared before the cliff face.

"Good afternoon! How was your day? Are you happy?" The little Elf, You Meng, rose and greeted, waving her delicate hand to shower golden sparkles.

Her wings, like delicate flower petals, flapped, speckling golden light and creating a dreamy spectacle.

"I’m in a great mood today, how about you?" Jiang Yuan responded, clicking to gift and drag a Luminous Stone into the inventory.

You Meng, holding the Luminous Stone that emitted a soft glow in the dim cave, spun excitedly in circles, giggling, "I’m thrilled too! Receiving such a beautiful Luminous Stone makes me even happier!" fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

The Affection level increased slightly, finally reaching one heart.

However, there was no immediate benefit, not even a discount on temporary tools in You Meng’s shop.

"Keep at it, surely quantity will eventually lead to a qualitative change!" Jiang Yuan was just about to buy tools and go mining when the little Elf You Meng sighed, "Oh my, the World Tree is indeed coveted by bad bugs, as its guardian you must quickly eliminate them!"

His eyes followed the direction pointed by her delicate hand and indeed saw peculiar little creatures flitting around, using long sharp mouthparts to pierce the tender branches of the World Tree, most likely feeding on its sap.

[Nether Phantom Bees: Special creatures from the Otherworld attracted to the World Tree, appearing only in the vicinity of the tree. Upon hunting, they can drop Bee Venom materials randomly.]

The compendium updated with a new page. Jiang Yuan assessed the position of the creatures which was not conducive to standing, so he summoned a paper crane, flying mid-air to knock them out one by one.

[Bee Venom +1]

[Bee Venom +1]

...

After defeating a swarm of over a dozen Nether Phantom Bees, the Storage Bag automatically collected six portions of Bee Venom.

[Bee Venom: Can refine special Elixirs, detoxify, or make hallucinogenic poisons, which can also be affixed to Weapons. Use cautiously, as accidental poisoning won’t lead to immediate death, but will cause intense hallucinations and madness. If poisoned by Bee Venom or other hallucinogens, consume raw Bee Venom to detoxify through toxicity.]

"Quite versatile, can be used to poison or detoxify, a good item indeed." Having reviewed its effects, Jiang Yuan waited a while longer and seeing no more Nether Phantom Bees, he stowed away the paper crane and purchased temporary tools from the little Elf’s shop to enter the Profound Iron Ore mine and mine accurately and swiftly using the Earth Mirror Book skill.

He worked until five forty in the afternoon before stepping out of the mine and inquired, "You Meng, if night falls and the Wilderness descends, could I still keep mining in the mine?"

"Of course you can." The little Elf smiled sweetly, dangling her tiny feet, "As long as you are not afraid of the numerous terrifying creatures that might emerge due to the Wilderness descent, then sure, go ahead.

These creatures are powerful and appear in large groups. If you don’t habitually carry a Resurrection Talisman, please reconsider, and for your safety, it might be better to leave the mine before the Wilderness descends."

Resurrection Talisman?!

Jiang Yuan’s eyes lit up as he inquired, "With a Resurrection Talisman, can I resurrect on the spot?! Do you know where I can get a Resurrection Talisman?"

This was excellent news, a lifesaving item in critical moments!
