Chapter 7: Huatian Fu

  Late autumn night has a strong chill. The lake water on top of the mountain is even colder.

  However, Qin Chuan was also a cultivator and didn't fear him.

  In the lake water, he carefully washed his whole body from head to toe and let the mountain wind dry his body. Then Qin Chuan took out the Taoist robe, Taoist crown, dustpan, and long sword from the storage ring, dressed neatly, and walked back to the main hall of the sect.

  In front of the main hall, Wang Shu had already prepared the cow, sheep and pig heads for worship, and Chen Hao was also waiting here after changing into clean clothes.

  They gazed at the mountain wind, Qin Chu dusted his long sword, his clothes fluttering, stepping on the moon to come, although still young, but already had a hint of immortal elegance. In their hearts, they all rose with intense reverence.

  Ancestor worship is a common activity in the Yuhua Gate.

  In the past, every time an important festival arrived, the former leader would lead the disciples of the sect to worship their ancestors.

  In addition, according to the rules of the Yu Huang Men sect, when a new leader takes over, he must also lead his disciples in paying respects to their ancestors before officially becoming the master of the sect.

  Originally, the new leader's ancestral worship and succession ceremony was one of the most grand ceremonies in the sect. However, now that the Huayamen only has two disciples including the leader, there is nothing grand to speak of.

  Qin Chuan didn't care about the empty rituals. Together with Chen Hao, they moved all the items for the ancestral worship into the main hall and neatly arranged them on the offering table in front of the portraits of their ancestors from past generations.

  Then, Qin Chuan stood in front and Chen Hao stood behind, formally starting the incense burning and worship ceremony to pay respects to their ancestors.

  After the ceremony, Qin Chuan stood up tall and faced the portraits of the successive leaders of the Feather Transformation Gate. With a solemn expression, he said: "The ancestors of the Feather Transformation Gate are above, today I, Qin Chuan, officially take over as the leader. No matter what my background is, since I have become the leader of the Feather Transformation Gate, I will definitely undertake the responsibilities that should be undertaken. Nowadays, no one takes the Feather Transformation Gate seriously, and even a small scattered cultivator dares to deceive us, it's really humiliating. However, I guarantee that one day, I will absolutely make the Feather Transformation Gate famous throughout the world, and everyone will respect and fear it!

  Qin Chuan's boastful words were accompanied by a timely sound effect: "Ancestor worship task completed. Reward received - 1 x Fertile Land Token."

  What's with the Huatian symbol? Is this mission's reward a Dao symbol?

  Qin Chuanyi heard this and suddenly became excited.

  The Taoist symbol is a good thing. Although it's just a small piece of paper, it contains all sorts of magical powers. The Huang Jin Li Si symbol used for construction in the past is a very good example.

  The sect's strength was weak in the early days and there were few things that could be done. With the help of Taoist symbols, development and construction can be achieved with half the effort.

  Qin Chu nodded to Chen Hao, indicating that he could leave. He himself walked out of the ancestral hall and returned to his own room, taking out the Huatian symbol from his ring to examine its effects.

  It turned out that Huatian Fu was used to open up spiritual fields. Whether it was a mountain, stone, swamp or thorns all over the place, with one stroke of Huatian Fu, ten mu of fertile and good fields could be transformed instantly.

  To raise money for the former leader's medical treatment, all the farmland at the foot of Mount Yuexian has been sold. Only two mu of thin fields on the mountain are left as the sect's food source.

  However, due to the geological constraints of the mountain, the arable land that can be cultivated is extremely limited, and the yield is also very low. If it were only relying on these two acres, not to mention the development of the sect afterwards, I'm afraid it would be difficult to even support the current food supply for the five people.

  Now this land deed has arrived at just the right time!

  Qin Chuan decided that tomorrow morning he would go to Chen Bo's dwelling on the secondary peak, transform ten mu of spiritual land, and resolve the food crisis.

  At night, he devoted himself to cultivation until midnight, and then fell asleep. The next morning, Qin Chuan simply ate some breakfast and set off from the main peak to the secondary peak.

  Fei Yu Mountain has a main peak and four sub-peaks. The main peak, Fei Yu Peak, is the location of the Menpai General Altar. The sub-peak that Qin Chuan was heading to is called Da Lin Peak. In the past when the Yuhua Gate was prosperous, it was originally the residence of miscellaneous personnel. Now it has also declined and only Chen Bo and Heng Er live here.

  It's still early now, but when Qin Chuan arrived at Daling Peak, he found that Chen Bo had already taken Heng'er to tidy up the crops in those two mu of thin fields.

  Qin Chu couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration. Although Chen Bo was just an ordinary staff member, he had indeed worked hard for the sake of Yu Hua Men. He would definitely treat such people with sincerity in the future and give them the returns they deserved, making up for their efforts!

  Chen Bo and Heng Er saw Qin Chuan arrive, and they hurriedly went forward to pay their respects. Qin Chuan stopped them and asked: "Chen Bo, how is the planting situation on these two acres of land?"

  "Alas, our land in Feiyue Mountain is not suitable for farming. No matter how hard we try, it will not yield much grain."

  Qin Chuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, from today on, our Yuanyi Gate will have ten acres of good land. I dare not say more, the daily expenses of the sect can be fully maintained."

  "Good field ten mu? Whose good field ten mu?" Chen Bo did not understand what Qin Chuan meant.

  Qin Chuan beckoned him over: "Follow me."

  Qin Chuan held his head high and puffed out his chest, walking ahead, while Chen Bo and Heng Er were covered in sweat and followed behind.

  With the two of them wandering around on the mountain for a while, they found a relatively satisfactory place. Qin Chuan stopped in his tracks and asked Chen Bo, "Chen Bo, if there were ten mu of good fields here, what would it be like?"

  "This place has sufficient sunlight and is close to a water source. If there were indeed ten mu of good fields, the harvest would be absolutely great! However...” Chen Bo's gaze fell to the ground. This area was overgrown with weeds, just wild land, not good fields. Even if the weeds could be cleared cleanly, the underground was all rocky, and it was impossible to plant crops like a field."

  "Then it's settled!" Qin Chuan smiled confidently, took out the Huatian symbol from his ring, pinched it in his hand, and solemnly recited the incantation: "The Supreme Ruler commands hastily like a law, the divine symbol arrives to transform the spiritual field!"

  Huà Tián Fú burst forth with golden light under the incantation's urging, transforming into a golden bolt of lightning that pierced into the earth.

  Right after that, an unbelievable scene appeared: the wild grassland in front of me seemed to be being tidied up by a pair of invisible giant hands. The original weeds and rocks gradually disappeared, replaced by piece after piece of soft and flat land.

  With Chen Bo's many years of experience in managing land, he could tell at a glance that the land before him was absolutely good land. Not to mention the two mu of thin field he had opened up himself, which couldn't be compared with it, even the thirty mu of good fields at the foot of the mountain back then were far inferior to what was in front of him now!

  With these ten acres of good land, at least in the future, the problem of eating for the Feather Transformation Gate will no longer be a worry!

  Chen Bo was extremely excited in his heart, but after all, he was a man in his forties, mature and calm, and did not show it on his face.

  Heng Er, this fifteen-year-old boy, couldn't calm down like Chen Bo. He knelt beside the field, grabbed a handful of soft mud and pinched it hard, then rubbed his eyes in disbelief, confirming it wasn't an illusion. After that, he jumped up suddenly and exclaimed loudly: "This is simply unbelievable! Is this immortal magic? Is this Taoist sorcery? Master, how did you do it?"

  Chen Bo hastily stopped Heng Er: "When the master is doing something, we servants just watch and that's all, what right do you have to ask questions!"

  Heng'er stuck out his tongue and didn't dare ask again, but still leaned into Chen Bo's ear and whispered: "I think the master is not an ordinary person, but a god from heaven who has come to save us!"

  Chen Bo also said to him: "In front of the master, one must be measured in words and deeds, and dignified in demeanor. This is the rule for being a subordinate."

  Heng'er nodded obediently.

  Qin Chuan did not notice the conversation between Chen Bo and Heng Er. His gaze was directed at the land that had been opened up by Huatian Fu, and immediately, information about the land appeared before his eyes:

  First-class spiritual field, containing a small amount of spiritual energy, crops planted in it can accelerate growth and mature ahead of time.

  After watching, Qin Chuan nodded secretly: Indeed so.

  At first in the game world, Qin Chuan's sect also had a spiritual field. Therefore he knew all the benefits of a spiritual field.

  The spiritual field in front of him is now only level one and has only one function: accelerating grain growth.

  But don't worry. As the sect develops and grows in the future, Lingtian will also be upgraded step by step, and at that time, it will have more and more mysterious functions.
