Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times

Though he released his Divine Sense, he was unable to detect anything.

"Good."

The scholar nodded with vigour and then, from his sleeve, a three-foot green blade instantly shot out toward the distance. Fat Long, standing beside, swept his gaze around with a shocked expression and gave Chen Qiu a thumbs up.

"Brother Qiu, impressive!"

"Heh heh."

Chen Qiu squeezed out a smile that was neither genuine nor entirely fake, impressive, wasn't it? He thought it was quite impressive, but boy, was it tiring... it was truly exhausting!

...

As the scholar explored along the way.

They had even moved from deep within Fei City to the depths of the Boundless Icefield, just as Liu Zide had mentioned. Part of the area below the Boundless Icefield had been hollowed out. This place should have been teeming with resentful spirits, but at this moment, it was completely empty.

The entire underground looked as if it were a gigantic cave naturally carved out.

Empty.

Not a sliver of light.

The only source of light depended entirely on the Thunder Dragon circling around Chen Qiu, but what Liu Zide said wasn't entirely accurate. The area under the Boundless Icefield wasn't completely hollowed out, as they ventured deeper and hadn't gone far – not even surpassing the locations of the nine major legacies – they saw the end.

And the Ancient Ruins they visited a few days ago were at the edge of the Boundless Icefield, which they had already passed.

Indeed.

In the colossal underground cave, devoid of any support, there was a curved earthen column extending directly deep into the ground, oddly protruding in the middle of the cave.

And within that earthen column was precisely—

The passage to the Ancient Ruins of the Chao Tian Sect.

No wonder it felt colder the deeper they went; it turned out the surroundings were enveloped with a massive number of resentful spirits.

...

At the end of the cave, Chen Qiu also saw what he wanted to see.

A plant resembling the Eight-petal Fire Lotus floated slowly in midair.

Its entire form was a ghostly green, the color of resentful spirits, emitting an extremely eerie glow and a strong scent of resentful energy.

It was different from the black Eight-petal Demon Lotus.

The Eight-petal Demon Lotus emitted a deathly aura, extremely dense in both death and Demonic Qi, whereas this plant emitted resentful energy, somewhat akin to the difference between Evil Cultivation and Demon Cultivation.

"Let's call you, the Eight-petal Resentment Lotus."

Chen Qiu gave this plant a new name, then expertly reached out his hand, and the Eight-petal Resentment Lotus was easily incorporated into his small world, once again circling above the small world.

It formed a corresponding posture with the Eight-petal Demon Lotus.

Now, there were two lotuses in the sky of his small world.

One emitted a deathly aura, the other, a resentful energy.

Causing his small world, originally focused on offensive and killing techniques from the Sword Cultivation Sect, to now resemble the typical haunting ground of Evil and Demon Cultivators, dead and gloomy.

If one cultivated here—

Their Cultivation would definitely improve rapidly.

To this day, he still didn't know what these two lotuses were good for; he only knew they were valuable treasures, but he had no clue about their specific uses. However, these items could not be stored in a Storage Ring or Jade Box.

Only his personal small world could incorporate them.

Which meant—

Apart from him, even if others in Da Xia Country saw these lotuses, they couldn't take them away, because even those Hidden Families in Da Xia with small worlds only owned fixed, immovable small worlds.

It was unlikely anyone else had a portable small world like his.

His movable small world was indeed opened by the Chao Tian Sect, and apart from them, few others in Da Xia Country had the capability to establish such portable small worlds.

"Let's go back."

After incorporating the Eight-petal Resentment Lotus into his small world, he scanned the surroundings one last time, seeing no resentful spirits or anything unusual, then set off to return the way they came.

...

Soon—

Chen Qiu and his companions once again shot out from the ground hole located a hundred miles away from Fei City, where Liu Zide and Mr. Wang of the Wang Family had been waiting.

"Brother Qiu."

Liu Zide hurriedly approached, excitedly saying, "Is everything resolved? The day before yesterday, I saw that there were no more resentful spirits at the entrance below, and over these past few days, the temperature in Fei City has also been rapidly warming up."

"Although it's still colder than other provinces due to its proximity to the Boundless Icefield, it's much better compared to before and has returned to a normal temperature. It's just that the Boundless Icefield is still as cold as ever, with no change."

"Mm."

Chen Qiu nodded slightly, gazing into the depths of the Boundless Icefield. The cold in Fei City was partly due to the large number of resentful spirits deep underground and partly due to the cold winds from the Boundless Icefield.

Now that the resentful spirits had been cleared, Fei City naturally warmed up.

However, the cold of the Boundless Icefield had little to do with resentful spirits; that perpetually howling cold wind was caused by something unknown.

"From now on, the Evil Wood can be freely traded; the resentful spirits below Fei City have been cleared, so there's no need to worry about a reduction in the number of Evil Woods being insufficient to suppress the resentful spirits."

"But since there are no resentful spirits,"

"Evil Wood will no longer grow."

"The purchasing speed can be increased."

Evil Wood grew each year primarily to suppress the resentful spirits, a natural law akin to poisonous snakes often being surrounded by corresponding antidotal medicinal herbs.

In places long surrounded by resentful spirits, Evil Wood would naturally grow.

Without the resentful spirits, there was no need for the growth of Evil Wood.
