Chapter 426: Preparations [One Drunk = Thousand Worries Alliance Leader Wishing Everyone a Happy New
Chapter 426: Preparations [One Drunk = Thousand Worries Alliance Leader Wishing Everyone a Happy New Year]
Upon entering, everyone, without exception, struggled for a while. The only exceptions were the disciples of the Heavenly Palace and the Netherworld.
Each of them wore a tiny Yin-Yang Fortune Token on their bodies.
Extremely small.
And as soon as they entered this passage, their bodies curled into a ball and rolled to the left.
As a result, almost everyone veered off the Hurricane Whirlwind Passage and landed on the relatively flat plains of the trial world.
This way, there were almost no casualties.
Moreover, after Yin Yun Xiao, Jiang Bi Huang, and Jiang Bixiao recovered, they immediately blew custom-made whistles to gather their fellow disciples.
Those who heard the whistle would quickly assemble, and those who didn't would head to the nearest tallest mountain and wait halfway up.
The disciples of the Two Temples Five Palaces had their own methods, but the ones at a disadvantage were the Four Great Sects and Fang Che's group.
This time, after Jiang Bi Huang had gathered some Heavenly Palace disciples, he immediately noticed something amiss! There were no Sovereign Level Cultivators!
Furthermore, the time flow speed in the Yin-Yang Realm was one year for every real-world year! It was completely different from the previous thirty days inside for every ten days outside.
Jiang Bi Huang was instantly alarmed.
"Why did the rules change this time?"
"Did you all receive an introduction to the Yin-Yang Realm's rules?"
After gathering information, everyone was speechless.
What happened this time? Why is it so different from before? It's almost a complete reversal!
Moreover, they couldn't contact the outside world from within. And ten years here was equivalent to just ten days outside. For the teachers outside, the rules hadn't changed at all; it was simply a matter of ten days passing by.
They would never know that those who entered this time would have to spend an entire ten years in the Yin-Yang Realm! It had to be said that those who understood the rules and the inside story were at a huge disadvantage.
Because there was a massive psychological gap between their cultivation level and the time flow speed!
They were terrified, aware that something was wrong, but they didn't know what exactly it was, a feeling that could drive one to despair.
On the contrary, Fang Che, Yan Bei Han, and Feng Yun, who had stumbled in blindly, immediately accepted this change.
And they began preparing for this lengthy period of ten years.
After ensuring his safety, Feng Yun did almost the same things as Fang Che: squeezing grass and tree sap for juice, finding detoxifying herbs, searching for food... Then, he added one more step to his routine: finding a safe place to rest. After that, he began climbing mountains.
Yan Bei Han nearly exhausted himself escaping the mother rhinoceros before resting. Once he understood the rules, received his ring, and quickly started doing similar things as Feng Yun and Fang Che.
As for Dong Yun Yu... Ahem.
He was repeatedly taking baths.
While bathing, he prepared a large amount of food, then kept drinking and stuffing his stomach, constantly gagging and trying to vomit...
The most critical issue was this: he knew he had just eaten a bellyful of shit!
So, Dong Yun Yu had to ensure that he vomited everything he ate before he could feel at ease...
It had to be said that this was truly a tragedy.
But in any case, everyone had settled down.
And they began their respective lives.
Moreover, those represented by Fang Che, Feng Yun, and Yan Bei Han immediately focused their thoughts and attention on the ten-year time frame.
They considered this the most crucial aspect.
Fang Che climbed to the top of a mountain, gazing out at the vast heavens and earth, with mountains rising and falling as far as the eye could see, and the four directions seemed endless. There were rolling hills stretching into the mist.
The entire land was lush and verdant, with hardly any roads in sight; the whole area was covered in green vegetation.
The large lake he had fallen into, in this vast world, seemed like a pearl embedded in the earth.
Fang Che sat on the mountaintop, hugging his knees, his black robe fluttering in the wind, and the stars twinkled faintly.
His forehead hair gently lifted in the breeze, and his gaze was solemn.
He quickly made a plan for himself.
He didn't know what the Yin-Yang Realm was like before, and he hadn't entered it previously, but based on what he had heard from the outside, he could tell that this opening of the Yin-Yang Realm was different.
Completely different!
"This isn't a simple trial. The emergence of the Yin-Yang Realm must have a purpose and an ultimate intention."
Fang Che first confirmed this matter.
"One day equals one year. I will stay here for ten years!"
"Why are there nine life-and-death perils? What is this Yin-Yang Energy, and what use does it have?"
"Cultivation starts uniformly from the Martial Artist level, so what is the ultimate level? Is there a maximum?"
"What do I need to do? How do I will spend these ten years?"
If I just stay in one place, will I still encounter the remaining eight life-and-death trials?"
"Cultivation, accommodation, and food are all necessary. Being prepared for enemies at any time is also a given."
"Then, it's about exploring every corner of the Yin-Yang Realm. This world has existed for who knows how many years, I wonder if there are any natives? If there are heavenly treasures, wouldn't each plant be incredibly valuable depending on its age?"
Fang Che's eyes sparkled.
"If these can be brought out... it would greatly enhance the Guardian's strength... but first, we must confirm if they exist."
"As soon as I entered, I gained control over water. What about others?"
"..."
Fang Che set sixteen tasks for himself, and as he delved deeper into his thoughts, his expression grew increasingly solemn.
"The Yin-Yang Realm!"
"The key, I fear, lies in these two words, 'Yin' and 'Yang'."
Fang Che said silently.
After tidying himself up, from this day forward, I am a native of this realm.
Then, near a water source, he worked hard to build a wooden house by the lake.
He worked calmly.
Felling trees, clearing the land, building the frame, and roofing the house...
This task alone took him two full days.
Then, he plunged into the lake, controlling the water flow at the bottom to create a large water drill, digging a spacious tunnel underwater.
This was even simpler; he directly manipulated the water, not needing to lift a finger. A round, smooth hole extended all the way to beneath the wooden house and through it.
Then, entering the wooden house, he dug a hole in the ground, controlled the water flow, and created a pool connected to the underground waterway.
When tired, he would soak in the water, and if there was danger, he could jump into the water and instantly be in a vast lake or sea...
With his water control, as long as he entered the water, he was like a dragon in the ocean or a tiger in the deep mountains, completely in his element!
After completing these tasks, Fang Che finally felt a sense of security in his life.
Resting for a moment, he casually chopped three shallow knife marks on the door frame.
This represented that he had been here for three days.
Then, he lay on the rustic wooden bed he had made, chewing on a grass leaf, leisurely crossing his legs, and emptying his mind, falling into a deep sleep.
He slept soundly, feeling incredibly refreshed. His body and mind had both been greatly rejuvenated!
Fang Che was well aware that this period of time should be the safest he would ever experience.
Because everyone was busy laying the foundation, as long as he paid attention to not being eaten by animals, bitten by snakes, or poisoned, he could rest easy.
He had to spend a full ten years here, and Fang Che wasn't in a hurry at all.
He didn't even plan to leave for the first two years.
He intended to cultivate here, quickly building up his cultivation.
He didn't want to find himself in a situation where he had to leave before his sword was ready, like the saying, "Before the sword is sheathed, one has already entered the Jianghu."
So, Fang Che had made comprehensive plans: he would not leave until his cultivation reached the level he deemed sufficient.
Then, Fang Che cleared a vegetable garden behind the house, planning to search for wild vegetable seeds to scatter here, and he also used the trees behind the wooden house to build a large and sturdy livestock shelter.
- He reinforced the surroundings, always ready to capture and domesticate wild animals.
- He set up a barbecue grill, made a stove, but unfortunately, he didn't have an iron pot or similar items.
- It seemed that wild vegetables could only be grilled or eaten raw from now on.
- Then, he searched the surroundings for spices.
- He even followed a group of wild horses for a day and found salt rocks, bringing back a large bag of salt for himself to filter and use.
- Those with spatial rings might have brought these items, but Fang Che did not.
- He had to rely on himself for everything.
- With no one to help and no disturbances, Fang Che worked quietly on his own, and as time passed, he wasn't in a rush.
- Finally, when everything was neatly arranged, ten days had already passed.
- During these ten days, he was busy every day, focused and using all his intelligence to build his little home.
- Looking out, he saw a vast wilderness with no one in sight.
- Every day, he was accompanied only by the rising sun, setting sun, white clouds, clear winds, green mountains, flowing waters, flowers, birds, and fish.
- This gave him a sense of great freedom.
- He even fantasized about finding a place like this to live in if the Jianghu were peaceful and the Only Righteous Sect disappeared, bringing Ye Meng with him.
- He enjoyed the feeling of welcoming the sunrise every morning and the arrival of dawn.
- Every afternoon, as he bid farewell to the setting sun, he welcomed the boundless darkness, feeling touched.
- Every morning, he would step out, seeing a flower with dewdrops about to drip, and grass with dew bending over, and as the day arrived, the flowers and dewdrops disappeared, leaving behind their fragrance, and the grass straightened up.
- He liked the sound of a big fish breaking the water's surface and leaping up in the midst of tranquility.
- That 'plop' sound seemed to shatter the tranquility of a thousand miles.
- It shattered the heavens and earth!
- He relished this feeling.
- Before marrying Ye Meng, he had never known the feeling of having a home.
- But now, he was building his home with his own hands.
