Chapter 305 - 269: (Revised) Yuebai’s Diary
My master has vanished, I’m seriously suspecting he’s hiding to avoid my questions.
Actually, I now have far fewer questions, most of them got clarified while I was teaching others.
Previously, I was too lazy, always thinking of asking others, relying on them, when really I should be using my own brain more.
Before we parted, Uncle-Master Li Shenzhi gave me a book called "Heavenly Interence Sect Contribution Points Acquisition Strategies," after reading it...
In one word, wonderful!
...
[Goat Year, September 1st, Grain in Ear Day]
Class at Heavenly Sword Peak, people ran away, found them, made five cry.
The Yuan Nourishing Grass grafted at Red Maple Valley failed the trial growth, it didn’t match the attributes of the Nourishing Essence Wood; still need to find another Spiritual Tree. If successful, it can greatly shorten the maturation time of Yuan Nourishing Grass.
It’s best if it can become like Spiritual Tea that can be repeatedly harvested without needing to re-seed each time after harvest.
Spiritual Tea? Perhaps we can try with Tea Seedlings!
The Golden Core refining succeeded today, the early investment was huge, now finally it can start paying off. The Alchemy Master Guild happens to have a long-term commission for purchasing such Elixirs.
The four Cultivation Techniques given by the Supreme Elder have been studied for half a year with great results. Except for the Water Attribute, True Monarch Fantao helped me to refine my spells, blending them together, giving me four high-level spells with endless variations, effectively utilizing my mutated Spirit Root as a trump card.
True Monarch Fantao is really kind, sometimes my master suppresses his anger thinking I don’t notice, but True Monarch Fantao is always gentle, patient, and never rushed, helping me with all my questions.
Under her guidance, I feel my Five Elements Wheel Bridge is getting more solid. There were times I almost succeeded in transforming into a Water Spirit, just a tiny bit short, maybe my understanding of water isn’t deep enough, needs more observation, like when I looked at thunder before, to observe the world’s different water forms.
The previous four types of Spiritual Energy were like unruly eagles, now slowly conquered, greatly enhancing operational and spellcasting efficiency.
Received a Message Flying Sword, heading out to do tasks.
...
[Goat Year, October 20]
Didn’t go on the first day, launched a surprise attack on Heavenly Sword Peak today, made six cry.
Fang Yuxing returned from Core Formation, caught him exactly, I ran away.
Fang Yuxing is a gentleman, embarrassed to trouble a Foundation Establishment like me, people with morals are restricted, easier to handle.
Uncle-Master Li Shenzhi’s method is amazing, I followed his strategy and gathered several Late-Stage Qi Cultivation disciples to take on a B-Class Demon Hunting task. They handle the early investigation and all trivial matters, I just show up at the end to deliver the final blow.
I get seventy percent of the Contribution Points, they share thirty percent. I felt a bit guilty, but they are very satisfied; thirty percent is more than they earn doing C-Class tasks by working hard and without me as the captain, they couldn’t take B-Class tasks.
I hired ten squads to execute tasks simultaneously, greatly increasing the efficiency of earning Contribution Points.
I have repeatedly refined Little Ganoderma nine times with the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique, preparing to further refine the skull, training the Iron Head Skill!
...
[Goat Year, November 11]
Mixed into Heavenly Sword Peak with the Huaxi Valley delivery wagon, made three cry.
This job is getting increasingly tough!
Xie Jingshan told me that all the Foundation Establishment disciples at Heavenly Sword Peak were fiercely trained by Sword Lord Guanghan, practicing swordsmanship ten thousand times daily without rest until completed.
Poor Xie Jingshan, his hand trembled so much he nearly dropped the sword.
Sword Lord Guanghan is probably too proud to directly trouble me, he’s hoping his disciples can beat me honorably.
If I can’t win, I run, there’s no chance for them to succeed.
The grafting of Yuan Nourishing Grass onto the tea seedlings of Spiritual Mist Immortal Tea actually succeeded, Yuan Nourishing Grass matures every five years, Spiritual Mist Immortal Tea every three years, quite shortening the time.
I informed Hong Tao about it, who told Inner Affairs Hall’s Great Elder Gongsun Zhu.
She personally visited and promised, if the Yuan Nourishing Tea seedlings can be successfully cultivated and it doesn’t affect Elixir refinement later, Inner Affairs Hall will reward me with 100,000 to 200,000 Contribution Points.
For now, these Yuan Nourishing Tea seedlings are merely successfully cultivated, subsequent events need careful observation.
Jiangg Ziying, that young girl, has been following me these days, quite interested in this field, maybe I should try teaching her.

[Goat Year, December 30, New Year’s Eve]
Heavenly Sword Peak... Let them have a peaceful New Year, I’m not so inconsiderate.
...
[Monkey Year, January 15]
Heavenly Sword Peak replaced the Great Array, surprise attack failed.
Will go back to discuss their array with Uncle-Master Li Shenzhi.
Seems like nothing particularly new this year, same as last year.
Cultivation, lecturing, class, farming, Alchemy, making Heavenly Sword Peak cry, going out of the sect to do tasks.
...
[Monkey Year, January 16]
Same as yesterday.
...
[Monkey Year, February 16]
Same as last month.
...
[Rooster Year, February 2]
Same as last year.
...
[Rooster Year, March 30]
There’s surprisingly no D-Class task to take at Inner Affairs Hall, is this appropriate? Is Fengxian Domain now so peaceful, that even monsters aren’t coming out to trouble people?
Never mind, if the trial cultivation of Yuan Nourishing Tea seedlings succeeds, I can pay off my debt all at once.
Two years of steady life, fulfilling yet boring, habitual yet tedious.
Master still hasn’t returned, it’s a bit strange, but when I asked the Supreme Elder and Sect Master, they both said Master sent messages saying everything is fine.
I went to check Master’s Life Token, indeed it’s intact, maybe he’s held up by something.
True Monarch Fuyi has emerged from closed-door training, next month she will take her disciples to North Sea.
I’m thinking...
Let me think this through!
