Chapter 96 The Genius Cultivator Used as Cannon Fodder (Part 25) A Small Secret Realm...
After Ye Zhen bound the secret realm, the group of them had nothing to do there.
The entire secret realm belongs to us. We can obtain the spiritual fruits and plants within it with just a thought. There is no need for further exploration or treasure hunting.
However, Ye Zhen and the others did not go back directly. The small secret realm only opens for three days each time. If they left directly with the small secret realm, the other people in the secret realm would also be sent out immediately.
In this way, even a fool would know that someone had gotten a stroke of luck. Although the Ye family was not afraid of trouble, they did not want to cause any unnecessary complications. It was just a matter of waiting a few more days. Everyone understood the importance of making a fortune quietly.
They will not go out for the time being, but people from outside can come in. The rule that only those with cultivation below the Golden Core stage can enter the secret realm was set by Ye Qingyuan himself.
Upon hearing that Ye Zhen and Lin You's master were waiting outside, Grandmaster Ye immediately locked onto the target based on the Ye family's aura and issued Ye Xinglan a pass.
Before Ye Xinghan could stop them, he saw his second sister carrying the wolf cub and immediately shrank back.
As someone who knows his older sister very well, a slacker like me knows that their current idle environment is perfect for focusing on their studies.
As soon as the wolf cub was released, it immediately pounced into Ye Zhen's arms, raising its little paws and howling as it recounted its experiences over the past two days, without even noticing Yun Jing, whom it had always disliked.
"Zhenzhen, Master is so cruel! She actually made me dip my paws in ink to make scrolls, and I made such a thick stack of them. Look, the hair on my paws is almost worn down!"
The wolf cub has been well cared for recently and has recovered a lot. Its voice is no longer so childish and has a clear, youthful quality.
"Alright, good boy, your master is doing this for your own good." Ye Zhen quickly took out a few fruits and stuffed them into his arms, and patted his head reassuringly.
Then, the little wolf cub, who hadn't even finished eating a single fruit, was dragged back to class.
Ye Xinglan is a very responsible teacher. The newly found grandmaster and wolf cub listen to the elementary school lessons together, and Yun Jing also listens in on the side.
Ye Xinghan is studying junior high school courses and is almost ready to graduate. Right now, he's doing all sorts of practice tests.
In this world, Lin You is no longer just a system, but lives in the form of a "human" and does not follow Ye Xinglan around every step of the way.
Therefore, she paid little attention to Ye Xinglan's "gaokao training" cheat code.
When Lin You saw her casually pull out a bundle of test papers, with the familiar name-blocking column next to them, she belatedly realized that these didn't seem to be copies made with magic.
Her system page also allows her to view the cheat code page. Lin You clicked on the cheat code status bar and discovered that the cheat code had been updated to beta version 5.0.
Originally, the app only had teaching videos and test papers. Now, it has added features such as Q&A, generating similar questions based on incorrect answers, knowledge expansion, and even class teaching and homework correction.
The fundamental purpose of the creators of "College Entrance Examination Training" is to improve the level of education, thereby earning merit and faith power. They are naturally very happy to teach more students.
Looking at Ye Xinglan's suggestions and the ever-evolving updates to the cheat system, Lin You once again opened the door to a new world.
Wow, you can actually use cheat codes like this?!
I just don't know if every cheat ability can be updated like this, or if only this one can.
The progress bar for the cheat system is still at 0, mainly because Ye Xinglan hasn't done any English tests, since that subject isn't very helpful for cultivation.
Lin You wasn't in a hurry. There were still many things she hadn't learned, and she didn't want to leave too soon.
In the small secret realm, there were countless basic spiritual herbs and fruits. With the material supply point, Ye Xinglan no longer needed to bother collecting them and began to teach Lin You and Ye Zhen how to refine pills.
Starting with memorizing the medicinal properties, mutual generation and restraint of various medicinal herbs, and the basics of elixirs, is very similar to the approach to learning traditional Chinese medicine.
"This cultivation method is completely different from what I expected," Lin You muttered to Ye Zhen as she recited her book.
“Everything has something in common,” Ye Zhen sighed, then opened the prescription again and marked each herb.
In novels, cultivators often spend decades in seclusion, squandering their time freely. Why is it that here, they have to study diligently?
Although there was no more academic pressure than in the final year of high school, and Lin You's memory had improved a lot due to cultivation, there was still a lot to learn. Just the basics of alchemy alone filled half a notebook with notes.
Originally, she also used jade slips to take notes, following local customs. However, she felt that jade slips were somewhat similar to modern mobile phones and not as convenient as notebooks. After her recommendation, the others also agreed and switched to notebooks.
When the three days were up, the other cultivators in the small secret realm were forcibly sent out as usual. No one knew that this was the last time the Rain City Secret Realm would be opened.
The location where people are sent out of the small secret realm is very random, and no one noticed that a few people were missing. At Ye Zhen's suggestion, Ye Qingyuan threw the female cultivator who brought Yun Jing in into a natural illusion outside.
Lin You and the others waited for another ten days or so until the spiritual energy fluctuations of the small secret realm disappeared before they came out.
In the past ten days or so, not only did Lin You and Ye Zhen refine their first batch of pills, but Ye Qingyuan also learned a lot of new knowledge, and his cultivation level improved significantly.
Ye Qingyuan's academic performance is somewhat unbalanced. His math scores are far ahead of Ye Xinghan's, but he always gets reading comprehension questions wrong in Chinese.
At first, Ye Zhen and Lin You thought he was too feudal and conservative to understand modern ideas, but later they realized that he was a big shot whose thought process was just too amazing.
For example, if the question asks what kind of emotion the author expresses by recalling his mother through osmanthus flowers, he would answer that it's because his mother's osmanthus cakes were so delicious that he was craving them.
Even if he was judged wrong and points were deducted, he didn't care at all. He wanted to learn new knowledge, but he wouldn't let the so-called test paper limit his thinking.
After listening, Ye Xinglan seemed to understand something, and Lin You realized that her master had written a suggestion letter to the creator of the cheat system again.
In the beginner's class, the one with the best results was Yun Jing. In just over ten days, he was able to get full marks on the elementary school graduation exam.
The little wolf cub looked at his barely passing grade, then glanced at Yun Jing's perfect score, and couldn't help but bare his teeth at him.
Seeing the unfriendly look in the eyes of the underachiever, Yun Jing hurriedly explained, "I also went to school at home. Although these are not quite the same as what I learned, they are all part of early childhood education and have some similarities."
The little wolf cub wasn't comforted at all. He had attended school in the demon realm too! He had even been to private schools in the mortal world. Why was he the one at the bottom?
The most common way for top students to deal with school bullies is to complain to the teacher. Although Yun Jing didn't tell the teacher, Ye Xinglan saw through their little interactions.
Therefore, the wolf cub was given two whole bundles of test papers as punishment for his poor exam performance and his unfriendly behavior towards his classmates.
Yun Jing silently hugged her test paper and moved closer to Ye Qingyuan. The wolf cub's aura was obviously even more ferocious!
After spending some time together and getting to know everyone's personalities, Yun Jing was no longer so apprehensive.
He could even lead the Yun family to the Ye family's territory and receive their protection, ensuring that the rogue cultivator would never dare to seek revenge.
After receiving the message from the Ye family, Ye Xinglan finally had no time to play with the children. The Ye family set up various strongholds within a hundred miles of their main residence to investigate the whereabouts of the demonic cultivators.
As the most accomplished disciple of the Ye family in this generation, Ye Xinglan is already the de facto next head of the family, so naturally he has to go back to take charge.
Ye Xinghan, who wanted to stay, was also taken back by her. With the small secret realm and Ye Qingyuan there, the safety and education of the two disciples were guaranteed, and the labor force naturally had to go back to work.
Yun Jing was also taken back and placed with the outer disciples to learn step by step. With his talent, he should be able to stand out soon.
Lin You and Ye Zhen were left to their own devices, free to roam the vast world as they pleased, with a gourmand by their side, truly able to sample all the delicacies of the world.
Unfortunately, Ye Zhen's protagonist aura was too much of a troublemaker. After encountering four handsome men and seven demonic cultivators within three months, the two finally stopped to discuss a countermeasure.
"Junior Uncle said that the Ye family sent out seventy-eight disciples in the past three months to investigate more than fifty towns, and they only found four demonic cultivators. So, Zhenzhen, you are capable of taking on a hundred at once."
Lin You looked at the message sent by Ye Xinghan and couldn't help but sigh to Ye Zhen. At first, she thought it was because the density of demonic cultivators was too high, but now it seems that their luck was just too outrageous.
What's even more outrageous is that the demonic cultivators she encounters are assigned based on her combat strength. Each one is slightly higher than her cultivation level, and after training her abilities, they drop a bunch of materials or equipment that Ye Zhen needs.
As expected of the chosen one, she is indeed the world's favorite daughter. Raising this child has been quite a painstaking process.
As for Lin You, she's already quite skilled at playing support, controlling monsters while buffing Ye Zhen, and even having time to record a video with a memory stone.
Many scenes cannot be captured by a mobile phone, but the photo stone has no problem. Not only is the image quality high-definition, but the sound quality is also very good. It's just a pity that you can't post it on WeChat Moments.
Ye Zhen, who had already reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment, tossed her newly acquired storage ring to Lin You and gave the wolf cub a handful of pills suitable for demon cultivation. She then sighed with great melancholy.
"This is not a normal life!"
Who goes on a trip and gets accidents every few days?
Ye Zhen, who was originally quite laid-back, was finally motivated and decided to clean up the demonic cultivators first before continuing her travels.
Although the process was rather bizarre, at least the result was the same. Lin You even felt that she saw a certain world consciousness finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Of course, Lin You didn't come away empty-handed after dealing with so many demonic cultivators; her mission progress bar also advanced significantly.
This may not just be a matter of progress in eliminating the number of demonic cultivators; the Ye family's heightened vigilance towards demonic cultivators also plays a part.
If they hadn't been drugged unexpectedly, the Ye family, with so many Golden Core cultivators and two Nascent Soul ancestors, was considered a top-tier power on this continent. How could they have been so easily wiped out?
While Ye Zhen continued to level up and fight monsters, Lin You was not idle either. She finally figured out the group chat function, Moments, and forum posting function of the communication stone.
Subsequently, the Ye Family General Group, Alchemy Research Group, Weapon Forging Research Group, Used Item Trading Group, Food Exchange Group, and so on were established.
Surprisingly, the food group was the largest and most lively group, second only to the main group.
[There's a newly opened noodle shop in the northeast corner of Jiangfeng City. The noodles are chewy and the broth is delicious. Come quick!]
This message was sent by an inner disciple who was traveling.
Adding Fire Poison Grass when cooking Azure Cloud Beast not only neutralizes the toxins of both, but also enhances the flavor and aroma. Eating it can strengthen the body. Use one ounce of Fire Poison Grass for every ten pounds of fresh beast meat. Remember this!
The one who said this was the Third Elder of the Ye family. He also thoughtfully included the geographical locations of the Azure Cloud Beast and the Fire Poison Grass, as well as cooking recipes.
Before long, someone in the group would complain that they arrived too late and the noodle shop was already packed, or that the Azure Cloud Beasts had all been captured and they only managed to grab two Fire Poison Grasses, and so on.
This was the first time Lin You had witnessed the enthusiasm of cultivators, and their momentum was comparable to that of middle-aged women in a supermarket grabbing discounted eggs.
I didn't realize the Ye family were all foodies before. I don't know if the Bigu Pill is really that hard to eat, or if the Third Elder has corrupted everyone.
