Chapter 7 — Growing Carrots Feeding Divine Beasts

Luc Tan knelt down next to the altar, reached out to catch her vanishing points of light, but could only grasp a piece of nothingness. He knelt for a long time. Until the dust settles, the cold wind blows, making people feel cold. Then, he picked up the Phuoc Than halo, wrapped it around his own seven meridians and eight veins, and personally tied a death knot. "I massacred the entire Van Beast Sect. The blood on my hands cannot be washed away. Now that Ky Lan doesn't hate me, I have to atone even more."He abolished his own cultivation. After just one night, my hair turned white. When he chained himself down to Hoang Son, he became an ordinary mortal who couldn't be more ordinary. 12Then half a year passed. Our carrot field expanded from half an acre to ten miles, and the number of crops also grown from carrots increased to twenty-seven types of elixirs. Monks came to pray and lined up all the way to the foot of the mountain. I do not accept spirit stones, I only take blood essence, feathers or scales with old wounds from spirit beasts, and give them to Tinh Nhi to research new elixirs. On Hoang Son there are two more thatched houses. One house is where Co Trong Son lived. The old man pressed the master's order at the bottom of the box and continued to plant trees as a casual cultivator. He said we have to plant until we die, or plant until we clear a new field and need help. The other apartment is where To Mich lives. To Mich hung in front of the door a crooked wooden sign: "Crazy medicine to make pills, free people don't bother." She copied Dan Tam Quyet into three copies. One copy was given to the Medicine Sect to apologize, one copy was stuffed in me, the other was torn to pieces and thrown into the alchemy furnace. "The new elixir has been successful." She kicked the door out, threw a jade vase into my arms, smashing it so painfully that I winced. "Using your carrot leaves combined with Phoenix tears to practice. Third grade elixir, specialized in treating old and long-term wounds of spirit beasts." She stopped. "Still not ordering. name." "It's called Pi Bi Hoan." I said. "Go away." In the wooden house at the foot of the mountain, Luc Tan was chopping firewood. White hair, wearing a short rough shirt. His movements of chopping wood were very strong, but also extremely clumsy. A person who once stood at the top of the world of cultivating immortals, now even an ax blade can cut askew. Occasionally, Pippi will put a carrot in his mouth and place it in front of his house. He silently received it. The next morning, the split firewood will be neatly arranged next to the spiritual field, without another word being said. Today, when I passed by, he bowed his head, finished splitting the last piece of firewood, and suddenly asked: "Have you ever mentioned anything about my master?" "Yes." I stopped walking. "She said the curse that your master put into your body would have cost you your life. She used her life in exchange for yours, and never regretted it." The hand that was splitting wood stopped. A long time later, he continued to split. Using force as if he wanted to exhaust all his strength. "Okay." He only said that one word. In the afternoon, I sat on the edge of the field. The red clouds burned from the horizon to the top of the mountain, the red color divided into distinct layers. Pippi lay on my lap, munching on carrots. Tieu Ngu curled up into a circle and looked at the jade slip that Ky Ngoc left behind. Tinh Nhi stood on my shoulder, carefully combing each newly grown tail feather. The new feathers are reddish-yellow in color, and the edges circulate light like a flame. I took out the Unicorn scale from my heart and held it up towards the red clouds on the horizon. "Don't worry. I will grow Hoang Son into a forest. They will live well, and so will I." The scale in my palm warmed slightly. The wind blew, the vegetable leaves made rustling sounds. Pippi stuffed half the gnawed carrot into my hand. "Share half with you." "Okay." I bowed my head and took a bite. Sweet carrot juice.
