The spiritual rice was almost ripe, and she was extremely busy recently, so she even had to put the matter of improving the quality of the spiritual fields on hold.
Fortunately, the spiritual energy in this small world is relatively abundant, so it is relatively easy to take care of these spiritual fields.
Otherwise, with her cultivation level at the Foundation Establishment Stage, she would not be able to take care of so many spiritual fields.
Xu Chunniang breathed a sigh of relief, and the moment she left the small world, several sound transmission notes on her body began to shake together.
She looked a little stern as she took out Uncle Yue's sound transmission note. Her expression changed slightly after she finished reading it.
The other several sound transmission notes all told similar stories.
Several markets of the sect were attacked by evil cultivators not long ago, and all the cultivators in the markets were brutally killed by them.
Xu Chunniang took a deep breath, and after leaving the cave, she went straight to Qianji Peak.
The disciples I met along the way were all in a hurry with serious expressions. I guess they must have heard this heavy news.
In the Qianji Hall, except for some elders who were away or in seclusion, all the Jindan elders were present.
In addition, there are also some core disciples and managers of each hall.
Xu Chunniang arrived late and after paying her respects, she stood aside and waited quietly.
In the absence of the Peak Master, Elder Fang Qi, who is in the late Jindan stage, is temporarily in charge of the situation.
He was about to start speaking when he suddenly sensed something and looked outside.
Not long after, a tall, handsome male cultivator who was in the foundation-building stage walked in and greeted the elders.
"Yulin meets all the elders."
"It's Yulin," Elder Fang Qi was a little surprised, "Haven't you been in seclusion?"
"I happened to be out of customs today, and I hurried here after hearing the news."
Xu Chunniang glanced at him curiously. She had heard from her master that she had a senior brother named Zhuo Yulin, who was already in the late stage of foundation building and had profound attainments in the art of formations.
It’s just that she had only been practicing for a short time, and had never had the chance to meet this senior brother who was in seclusion.
I didn't expect to see you here today.
Fang Qi nodded and stopped dwelling on the matter.
After scanning the surrounding area, he got straight to the point and said, "I'm sure everyone has heard about it. The evil cultivators launched a surprise attack last night and destroyed three of our sect's markets."
Everyone looked unhappy. The five major sects went to Wuwang Mountain with great momentum to kill the evil cultivators. A year had passed, and it stood to reason that there should be news coming back.
But until today, we only received news that evil cultivators attacked the market town, and we don’t know what happened on the front line.
"The evil cultivators are so rampant that their lair is about to be destroyed, yet they still dare to attack our Zongfang City."
"Not only our Xiaoyao Sect, but it is said that the Miaodan Sect and Hanshan Sect also had their markets attacked."
All the Jindan elders were filled with indignation and extremely shocked and angry.
Fang Qi glanced at the whole audience, "I understand how everyone feels. The evil cultivators must have done this because the battle at Wuwang Mountain was getting intense, so they launched a counterattack. The acting leader has issued an order to tighten entry and loosen exit in all the towns and cities from a certain date, and to strengthen the garrison."
After listening for a while, Xu Chunniang understood the sect's arrangement.
It is unknown how far the battle at Wuwang Mountain has progressed, but the fact that the evil cultivators attacked the market town is an indisputable fact.
To prevent this from happening again, the defenses of each town must be strengthened.
Each market town urgently dispatched one Jindan cultivator and ten foundation-building cultivators to take charge.
Someone expressed his concern, "There are nearly 20 large and small markets in our sect. If we withdraw so many Jindan cultivators, will it leave the sect empty and allow the enemy to take advantage of the opportunity to enter?"
Fang Qi shook his head slightly. "My Xiaoyao Sect has a mountain protection formation, and with Master Ye who has the Nascent Soul cultivation, we have it in place. Even if the evil cultivators come in full force, they won't be able to break the formation in a short period of time."
Hearing this, the rest of the people felt relieved and continued to discuss the staffing arrangements for each market town.
A few hours later, Xu Chunniang walked out of Qianji Hall with a slight disappointment in her eyes.
The foundation-building disciples that the sect sent to garrison in various towns and cities this time not only required attainments in the second-level formation, but their cultivation must be above the seventh level of foundation-building.
During this period of time, she has never given up her study of formations, and has already touched the threshold of the second-level formation.
It is possible to cultivate, but it is difficult to make rapid progress in a short period of time and reach the late stage of foundation building, which cannot meet the requirements of going to the market town.
Xu Chunniang once again realized her own weakness. Even though she had the ability to kill enemies of higher levels, her cultivation level of the third level of foundation building was still too low.
She was about to fly away on her sword when a voice suddenly came from behind her.
"Junior sister, please stay."
Xu Chunniang turned around and saw that the person who called her was none other than her fellow senior brother, Zhuo Yulin.
Her heart moved slightly, "Brother Zhuo."
Zhuo Yulin had a friendly look and spoke gently.
"I received a lot of messages right after I came out of retreat. Master said he accepted a new disciple. Now it seems that Junior Sister has reached the third level of foundation building in less than five years. She is indeed extraordinary."
"I just relied on the Dragon Transformation Pond to cultivate faster. I heard from Master that Senior Brother's understanding of formations is amazing. I think he will gain a lot from his years of seclusion this time."
"It's not a big achievement, it's just one step closer to forming a pill."
Zhuo Yulin shook his head and smiled, looking somewhat helpless.
"Originally, we should have a good chat since this is our first meeting, but this is a time of great trouble. I have to leave for Yunting Market today, so I'm afraid I don't have time."
"Brother, you have great skills and are proficient in formations. I think you will be able to achieve great things."
Xu Chunniang said sincerely.
Zhuo Yulin thought for a moment and took out a formation plate from his storage bag. "I made this in the past. It is not very useful to me now. It is appropriate to give it to you now."
Xu Chunniang was slightly stunned and stood there for a moment, not knowing whether she should answer it.
"It's just a small gift from my senior brother, so don't refuse it. It's not something very expensive."
Hearing what Senior Brother Zhuo said, she no longer hesitated and reached out to take the formation plate.
"Thank you, Brother."
Zhuo Yulin smiled slightly and was about to leave when he heard Xu Chunniang suddenly say, "Brother, wait a minute."
He turned around and saw that Junior Sister's cold expression had become more serious, "Brother, please pay attention to your safety and come back soon."
Zhuo Yulin nodded and left.
Watching the figure in the sky getting smaller and smaller until it became a small black dot, Xu Chunniang retracted her gaze, put away the formation plate, and turned back to the cave.
No matter what, let’s work hard on our cultivation first.
In the following days, the spiritual rice in the small world slowly began to mature.
Since Xu Chunniang did not have much time to manage the spiritual rice, the yield of the spiritual rice was only average. The average yield of a piece of spiritual field was only 400 kilograms.
But she had too many spiritual fields. With ninety spiritual fields, the total amount was as high as thirty-six thousand kilograms.
The harvested pearl rice was piled up full on the other side of the small world.
Xiaobai seemed to like the pearl rice very much. He bit open a cloth bag and ate it happily.
He looked as if he couldn't wait to lie down and roll around on it.
