After adapting to the light around him, with the help of the dim light from the hole that fell on top of his head, Yang Junshan could finally make out that he was in a cave.

The dense spirit energy in the surroundings tightly surrounded his body, and Yang Junshan felt as if countless awls were trying to pierce through his skin and bore into his body, causing him to feel unspeakably uncomfortable.

Reversing the《 Wutu Spiritual Art》 within his body, the spirit energy within his body adhered to his skin, expelling the surrounding spirit energy. Yang Junshan instantly felt his entire body becoming much more comfortable.

A fire piston lit up a bean sized flame, and the pitch black cave immediately became much brighter. Yang Junshan picked up the shattered spirit soil on the ground to inspect, but discovered that all of the spirit stones were only as thick as a finger. No wonder when Hu Niu pounced on them, the spirit dirt beneath her feet could not bear the weight of the man and beast and collapsed.

It was a natural cave with a circumference of about ten meters, and a height of about ten meters. The walls of the cave as well as half of the arc above were stone walls, and only the upper half of the arc above where Yang Junshan had fallen was made from was a layer of earth. Furthermore, after being soaked in the cave’s spirit energy for who knows how many years, the soil of this arc had already become as hard as a boulder.

Yang Junshan picked up the pieces of spirit soil that had fallen down from the hole above his head and checked them, only to discover that the spirit energy contained inside had reached the level of a middle ranked Ling Tian.

There was a clear spring water in the middle of the cave, and the pool was about two feet wide. The bottom of the pool was filled with a layer of round stones, and there was a spring that gurgled water from within, while dense spirit energy was also accompanied by water that spread into the cave. However, the pool did not increase at all, as if it had seeped into the underground river, and Yang Junshan’s spirit well just happened to open up this underground river.

He extended his hand into the water. The cool spring water made his hand tingle slightly. One could see that the spirit energy contained in the spring water was still above the spirit well. After all, this was the source of the underground river.

Grabbing a handful of stones from the pond, Yang Junshan was surprised to find out that all of the stones had a trace of warmth on them. There were faint spiritual lights flickering on their surface, and it was entirely possible to cut these stones and use them as stone coins.

Looking at the full layer of small pebbles laid in the pool, if they were cut into stone coins, it would not be close thousand of them, who knows how long they would have to soak in the spirit spring to be able to do this, and just how long more they would have to soak in the water before they could grow into spirit jade that could cut Jade Coins s.

Other than this spring water, the entire floor of the cave had a hard stone surface. Even though it was not smooth, it was sufficient for Yang Junshan who wholeheartedly cultivated the Monarch’s Map, not to mention that the spirit energy in the cave was endless. Not only was it a secret place for tempering his body, it was also an excellent place for secluded cultivation.

Although the location of the pomegranate forest was very difficult, very few people would come here, so they had to be careful in case someone really discovered this cave. According to Yang Junshan’s guess, at the very least, he would be able to draw the entire Wasteland Town over to fight for it.

If he wanted to hide the entrance of the cave, he would first need to cut off the leakage of the spirit energy from the cave. Compared to other woods, the pomegranate forest outside the cave was already beginning to stand out, and if he were to release the spirit energy from the cave, it would take more than a year or so.

After muttering to himself for a moment, Yang Junshan fished ouandful of pebbles that were rich in spirit energy from the bottom of the pond, and then carefully collected the spirit soil that fell out of the cave entrance using a cloth bag. After digging out a few notches in the cave entrance’s stone wall for him to climb, when he turned around and called Hu Niu, he discovered that this fellow was squatting on the ground.

He walked over and slapped Hu Niu on the head, ignoring the fact that Hu Niu shouted in protest due to him interrupting her cultivation, he placed her on his shoulder and crawled out of the cave.

Yang Junshan’s small cloth bag simply could not hold it in at all, so he simply pushed all of the spirit dirt back into the cave, then used a few thick branches to hold it up by the cave entrance. The soil on top of the ground had blocked the gaps between the branches, and then used the soil that was dug out to cover the ground, and then scattered the dried up branches and leaves to make it look exactly the same as the ground around, so as to not even collapse if someone stepped on it.

Although this wouldn’t stop the release of the spiritual energy from the cave, ordinary people at least wouldn’t be able to discover that there was a cave below if they weren’t careful.

They hurriedly returned home, but Yang Tiangang was still not home. Over the past few days, as long as they did not need Yang Tiangang to guard the village for the days of the Ling Tian s that were about to mature, there waigh chance that Yang Tiangang was not home. Although the villagers all said that Yang Cunzheng was addicted to gambling, Yang Junshan knew that his father had returned to Chenyu County several times.

He couldn’t have told the family about the Rust Ore, right?

Yang Junshan could not help but frown, but in the end, he did not plan to stop his father. After all, wanting to secretly gather the Rust Ore by himself was really too slow, and he needed the help of the clan’s resources to do so. This way, he did not know how much his father would be able to obtain, and the more people who knew, the harder it would be for this matter to be kept secret.

In the front yard, Su Baozhang was bringing Yang Junping, Yang Qianhai and Yang Bao Liang to practice the Mang Ox Fist. Ever since Yang Junshan had lost his temper last time, Yang Junping and the other two became much more obedient. Later, Su Baozhang also realized the importance of tempering his body, so he asked Su Baozhang to bring the three of them to practice it together.

After hurriedly greeting Su Baozhang, Yang Junshan went to his father’s room and rummaged through it. Finally, he found a rune stone tablet that was not even two feet in size from the bottom of a box.

This stone tablet was the same size as the Spirit Sealing Well in the backyard. Originally, Yang Tiangang had used it as a backup so he only needed to embed it with a spirit source to activate the Spirit Sealing Rune Formation on the stone tablet, preventing the spirit energy from leaking out.

When the sky grew dark, Yang Junshan took the rune stone tablet and quietly went up the Western Mountain. Hu Niu seemed to have been waiting for Yang Junshan the entire time and when he saw him going out, he silently followed behind.

He then placed the stone tablet at the bottom of the pit, and then placed a dozen or so spirit stones that were scooped out from under the pool onto the stone tablet. The Rune Circle on the tablet was immediately activated, and the spirit energy that was being emitted from the cave was immediately isolated from the air, furthermore, this stone rune was also capable of isolating sound, so even if Yang Junshan was shouting out loud in the middle of the cave while training the Mountain Lord Map, it would not be heard by anyone outside the cave.

Then, he tied up the cover of the cave entrance with rope so that when entering and exiting the cave, it only needed a wooden row. Furthermore, after putting down the wooden row, it was exactly the same as the surrounding ground, so he didn’t have to worry about anyone noticing anything.

After covering up the cave entrance, Yang Junshan decided to start cultivating inside the cave. Furthermore, the first thing he did was to cultivate the Tiger’s Perching Map of the Eight Mountains.

Although there was only one inheritance diagram of the Tiger’s Dweller Painting, the inherited memories had a set of movements. There werotal of eight postures, and each of the eight postures allowed for a smooth transformation, allowing one to train every part of one’s body in these eight postures.

Every time Yang Junshan’s body took on a stance, the Wutu Spiritual Art would circulate through his entire body once through a full cycle. With that, he was able to complete the conversion of the eight stances, and the spirit arts had already circulated in his body for eight full cycles.

Perhaps it was because of the Mountain Monarch’s Map, but during the course of this night when Yang Junshan was cultivating, the pain caused by the spirit energy washing through the meridians in his body was greatly reduced. In addition to the dense spirit energy in the cave, Yang Junshan’s cultivation efficiency had also greatly increased.

Bringing the energetic Hu Niu who had also cultivated for an entire night out of the cave, she covered up the Spirit Sealing Tablet and recovered the disguise at the entrance of the cave. She took a deep breath of the cool air in the mountain and immediately felt refreshed and refreshed from head to toe.

He turned around and looked at the pomegranate tree behind him. Perhaps it was because of the spirit energy being emitted from the cave entrance yesterday and the spirit energy that was being emitted by Yang Junshan when he went in and out of the cave. Yang Junshan felt that the leaves of the pomegranate tree had also become fresh and green, and the pomegranate fruits that hung on it had become much smoother.

At this rate, even though the Spirit Sealing Slate isolated the spirit energy, as long as Yang Junshan continuously entered and exited the cave, the pomegranate forest would slowly be nourished and the soil would gradually turn into a Ling Tian. The pomegranate tree near the cave entrance might even be able to produce a spirit essence in the past.

Going down the mountain, Yang Junshan discovered that the villagers who were recently on patrol around the mature three-acre Ling Tian were becoming more diligent, and even when Su Baozhang had free time, he would often come here. Every time he saw that there was a small piece of the Ling Tian that belonged to him, Su Baozhang would immediately go back to his house full of vitality to practice Mang Niu Fist, and cultivate the《 Earth Shrouding Secret Art》 that Yang Tiangang had taught him.

According to Su Baozhang, the villagers in the neighboring villages would often go to the foot of the Western Mountain to look at the three acres of Ling Tian that were about to mature. The entire Mengyu County’s soil was barren, and it was much more difficult to nurture the Ling Tian than other places.

That year, when Yang Tiangang set out to cultivate the Ling Tian, not only were the Tuqiu Village s skeptical, even the Spiritual Farmers s from other villages scoffed at him after hearing the news. Many of them made sarcastic remarks in the ears of the Tuqiu Village villagers, and many martial arts realm cultivators, because of Yang Tiangang was a foreigner, were waiting for him to become a joke.

However, as the accumulated spirit energy in these three acres of fields grew higher and higher, and as they were about to mature and become three mu of Ling Tian, with this turn of events, the villagers of Tuqiu Village, upon seeing the other villagers, all of a sudden started to boast proudly about the three mu of Ling Tian that had been bred in this village. Every time they heard the words of the other villagers that were full of sour water and saw the envy on their faces, it was finally the Tuqiu Village’s turn to raise his eyebrows and give vent to herself.

However, after the news spread, more and more people from all four villages came to Tuqiu Village to take a look at these three mu of Ling Tian, causing the entire Tuqiu Village to immediately become cautious, as they were afraid that someone would destroy the Ling Tian that was about to mature. Especially the neighboring village, Earth Stone Village, and the Tuqiu Village;
