Chapter 392: Newly Formed Mustard Seed World ( 2 )

With this thought in mind, Yao Zhi carefully read the information regarding the formation. Half an hour later, she frowned and fell into deep thought.

The mountain barrier required spiritual energy to remain active, but the Qi Gathering Formation was meant to gather spiritual energy from the surrounding environment.

This world supposedly had no spiritual energy. Wouldn’t that make the formation useless?

As if understanding her thoughts, the system’s mechanical voice echoed in her mind. ”Host, after you planted the spiritual vein fragment within the jade mine, this world underwent changes.”

”While it is still impossible for this world to produce spiritual energy on the same level as cultivation or immortal worlds, traces of spiritual energy have begun slowly emerging from Heaven and Earth. Therefore, it is possible for you to establish the formation.”

”What about the Heavenly Dao? Didn’t you say it forbids cultivation in this world?” Yao Zhi asked doubtfully.

”You saved this world’s consciousness, so the Heavenly Dao is willing to make an exception for you. You are permitted to cultivate immortality.”

Yao Zhi was stunned by this information. It took her quite some time to regain her composure before she asked, ”Then what about my husband? If cultivating means living alone for thousands of years, I would rather not cultivate at all and instead grow old together with him.”

”Since your husband’s soul is bound to yours, he can cultivate as well.”

Hearing this, Yao Zhi finally heaved a sigh of relief. ”That’s good.”

Now that she knew spiritual energy was slowly appearing in this world, her mood improved greatly.

With spiritual energy nourishing the air, water, and soil, people would no longer have to suffer endlessly from natural disasters and famine in the future.

Now that she could cultivate, she put away the Qimen Dunjia records and took out the Yunfeng Sword Manual from the system’s storage.

This manual was one of the rewards she had received before, together with the Hongyun Sword.

She hadn’t learned it previously because this so-called sword manual was actually a cultivation technique meant for sword cultivators. While practicing the sword techniques, she also needed to circulate spiritual energy through her body at the same time.

Back then, there had been no spiritual energy in this world, making it impossible for her to cultivate it. But now, although the spiritual energy in the world is still thin, it is still present. That should be enough for her to begin learning.

Opening the ancient book, Yao Zhi realized she could only read the first Chapter of the thick manual. The remaining pages were blank.

Since she couldn’t access the rest, she focused on comprehending the first Chapter.

She originally thought it would be easy because she could understand the ancient script. Unexpectedly, although she could read every word, her mind failed to comprehend anything after finishing the entire Chapter.

Feeling slightly dizzy, she rubbed her forehead and muttered, ”It’s impossible to comprehend the entire Chapter at once. Maybe I should try understanding it sentence by sentence.”

After making up her mind, Yao Zhi took a deep breath and reread the very first sentence of the manual.

”Everything born under Heaven and nurtured by Earth originates from the same sources, Chaos,” she murmured softly.

As an author, this concept was not unfamiliar to her.

The idea of Chaos energy was often used in fantasy novels to explain the origin of life and all forms of cultivation techniques. Chaos energy could be considered the source of divine energy, spiritual energy, demonic energy, and even devil energy.

What she didn’t know was whether the Chaos energy mentioned in this manual was the same as the concept described in the Xianxia novels from her previous life.

”If everything born under Heaven and Earth comes from the same source, then even weeds should be capable of drawing in energy to cultivate. If that’s the case, as a human, I should also be able to sense spiritual energy born from the Chaos.”

At this moment, Yao Zhi was like a blind person trying to drive a carriage. She didn’t know whether she was moving in the right direction at all.

After taking a lotus position, she closed her eyes, relaxed her body, and attempted to sense the spiritual energy around her.

According to the system, spiritual energy existed within the shared manor. Compared to the outside world, cultivating here should be easier.

At first, she couldn’t focus. But gradually, her breathing slowed, and the distracting thoughts in her mind faded away. Her consciousness became calm and still, like the surface of a quiet lake.

She didn’t know how long she had sat still until she felt something warm brush against her cheek.

The sensation was fleeting, but moments later, she felt another touch. It resembled a gentle breeze yet also felt like soft feathers caressing her skin.

Then, something lightly touched her fingertips before seeping into her body.

Yao Zhi was startled, but she felt no discomfort. Instead, an indescribable sense of relaxation spread through her body.

The warm energy entered through her fingertips, traveled through her meridians once, and finally settled several inches below her navel.

After the energy disappeared into her body, Yao Zhi instinctively yearned for more and searched for the warm energy floating around her. Without realizing it, her body slowly began absorbing the spiritual energy drifting through the air.

Lost within this mysterious sensation, she failed to notice that her husband had already awakened and was quietly watching her.

Fu Chen’an was delighted the moment he saw his wife after he woke up. However, seeing her seated cross-legged on the floor with her eyes closed, he hesitated to approach and disturb her.

He silently sat on the couch and observed her.

Although he couldn’t see anything unusual around Yao Zhi, he could vaguely sense fluctuations in the air. The feeling resembled the inner energy martial artists used when practicing martial arts.

Yet compared to inner energy, this force carried a heavier and more mysterious pressure. Instinctively, he understood that whatever his wife was cultivating was far beyond ordinary martial arts.

Almost an hour later, Yao Zhi finally opened her eyes and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.
