Maybe I shouldn't die.

Removing weeds is not an easy task. The weeds in the yard grew particularly vigorously due to the nourishment of spiritual energy. Although Fang Yue had gained a lot of strength after three months of cleansing his bones and marrow, he could only pull out one weed at a time with difficulty. A closer look revealed that its roots had penetrated more than one meter into the soil.

Fang Yue stood in the yard, looking at the lush weeds, then looked at her hands which already had slight marks from being strangled. She couldn't help but raise her head sadly, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.

I'm so worried! How long will it take to clean it up just by pulling it out?

Just when she was worried, there was a knock on the door behind her. Fang Yue turned around and saw an unfamiliar senior sister standing outside the door.

Fang Yue was confused, but still asked politely:

"Sister, what's the matter?"

"Junior sister, you are worried about the weeds in the yard," the senior sister said in a gentle tone with a smile on her face.

Fang Yue's eyes lit up, and she said hurriedly, "Please give me some advice, Senior Sister."

"Five points, and I will clear these weeds for you," the senior sister said without hesitation.

"Can it be cheaper? You know I'm a new disciple and I don't have many points."

After some bargaining, they finally reached an agreement and made a deal with 3 points. At the same time, Fang Yue wanted to introduce her senior sister to other disciples.

The senior sister weeded very quickly. She pinched her fingers and the weeds in the yard withered one after another, turning into green dots that gathered on her fingers. Soon, the whole yard became clean and tidy. The green dots that gathered on the senior sister's hands eventually gathered into a bead the size of a soybean.

Fang Yue asked curiously: "Senior Sister, what is this?"

Seeing Fang Yue's doubts, the senior sister did not hide anything and explained openly:

"This is the Art of Transforming Grass, which can absorb the essence of plants. This bead is the essence of plants absorbed from the weeds in the courtyard."

Fang Yue asked more curiously: "What is the use of the essence of plants?"

The senior sister continued to explain, "The essence of plants can promote the growth of spiritual medicine." After that, she put the essence beads in her hand into a small jade bottle. There were already many essence beads of plants of different sizes in the jade bottle.

Seeing that her senior sister had finished handling the matter, Fang Yue readily took out the token and transferred three points to her. Then, she took her senior sister to the small courtyard next door.

Qin Lanlan lives next door to Fang Yue. She was very happy to hear that it would only take three points to get rid of the weeds.

After that are Liao Jing’s courtyard, He Xiaomin’s and others’ courtyards.

The senior sister quickly finished weeding all six courtyards. Seeing this, the new disciples nearby asked the senior sister if she could weed their courtyards as well. The senior sister agreed, as she came here to earn points.

Seeing their senior sister leave with other disciples, Fang Yue and her friends said goodbye. Although the weeds had been cleared, the yard still looked messy.

Fang Yue acted quickly, setting up the formation, tidying up the hut, and changing the bedding. When everything was ready, it was already dusk. She realized that she still lacked some furniture. She was forbidden to go out in Qinghe Garden, and there was no chance to buy them. She thought, I have to find out if there is a market in Liuyun Peak.

The restriction outside the courtyard was triggered, and the identity token also vibrated. Fang Yue picked up the token to check. It was Qin Lanlan sending a message asking her if she wanted to go for dinner.

Of course she had to go. Fang Yue first replied to Qin Lanlan's message, then went outside the courtyard to open the restriction. Standing outside the restriction were Qin Lanlan and Liao Jing.

"Isn't anyone else going to eat?" Fang Yue asked curiously.

"They haven't finished packing yet! We can just take them with us." Qin Lanlan replied disapprovingly.

So the three of them went to the cafeteria together. On the way, Liao Jing took the lead in asking questions.

"What are your plans next?"

"The instructor said before that one can only take elective courses after reaching the fourth level of Qi Refining. I plan to break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining first." Fang Yue replied.

"That's true. Before we reach the fourth level of Qi Refining, the spiritual energy in our bodies is too thin, and we are unable to cast spells. The tasks we can take on are limited," Qin Lanlan added.

"Most of the work I can get is manual labor like cleaning the floor, and the points I get for this kind of work are not that high."

"Yes, but there is a task we can still take on." Qin Lanlan changed the subject.

"What is the mission?" Fang Yue asked curiously.

"The sect has a mission to condense spirit stones. We need to buy a condensation array first." Qin Lanlan explained

"Condensing spirit stones?"

"Yes, most spiritual stones are naturally produced by spiritual veins. However, spiritual veins are limited. Excessive collection of spiritual stones from spiritual veins will lead to a decrease in the quality of the spiritual veins, which will have an adverse impact on the cultivation environment. Therefore, the Cultivator Environmental Protection Association has developed a formation method that places the spiritual stone shell made from absolute spiritual stones in the center of the formation. By continuously inputting spiritual energy into the formation, the formation will condense the spiritual energy and store it in the spiritual stone shell. Most of the spiritual stones in circulation today are made in this way."

"This method is excellent. The instructor also said that practicing after exhausting the spiritual energy will help condense the meridians. I am worried about how to exhaust the spiritual energy."

"The sect has a clear purchasing policy for condensed spirit stones. Each spirit stone can be exchanged for one point. Although it is a little less, it is a very good return for us."

Everyone nodded, and as they were talking they had already arrived at the cafeteria, where a long line had formed. Fang Yue and the other two bought two meals each, packed them up, and walked back to the courtyard together.

On the way back to the courtyard, they exchanged some information and agreed to go to the Deacon's Hall together tomorrow to get the tools needed to condense spirit stones.

Fang Yue first sent the meal to Feng Sisi and told her about everyone's agreement and plan. She also thought the plan was very good and expressed her agreement.

After saying goodbye to Feng Sisi, Fang Yue collapsed onto the bed as soon as she returned to the courtyard.

Finally having some free time, she took out her identity token to check. After becoming an outer disciple, her identity token had been upgraded once, but she had not had time to study it carefully.

After she probed the token with her spiritual sense, she discovered that a sect forum had been added to the token's communication section.

Fang Yue clicked into the forum, which mainly reported on the sect’s recent major events, as well as the disciples’ violations and subsequent punishments announced by the Criminal Hall.

Fang Yue flipped through the forum, but there was nothing interesting, so she was about to exit. Suddenly, she noticed a line of small words in the lower right corner that said "Disciple Forum Entrance". The small words were very inconspicuous, and if Fang Yue hadn't carefully read the entire sect forum, she wouldn't have noticed this line of small words.

Fang Yue clicked into the disciple forum and a pop-up window immediately popped up, asking her to enter a name.

Fang Yue tried to enter two names, but both showed that there were duplicates. Fang Yue was a little annoyed, and suddenly some images flashed through her mind. So, she resolutely entered "罘忧请赱幵".

After entering the forum, she was immediately attracted by the title at the top. It read:

"Shocked! Why would a young couple jump off a cliff so late at night?"

Fang Yue couldn't help but poke in and found out that it was Miao Jianfeng and his young couple who were dating on the cliff late at night. They couldn't help themselves and missed a step and fell off the cliff. They were bleeding from the head and were not found until the next day by a passing disciple. It is said that when they were found, their clothes were still in disarray.

Snowman: Why did you choose such a dangerous cliff as your date? It's fine to go to the cliff, but as a swordsman, you didn't bring a flying sword for self-defense?

Kong Shan: Miao Jianfeng's? unexpectedly also has a partner. ?

Mocheng Yanliu: Even the poor monk who plays with swords has a partner, why am I still single?

No regrets in making a move: Wait for the follow-up

When Fang Yue was browsing these forum messages, she was unknowingly immersed in them. When she came to her senses, she was shocked to realize that she had wasted a lot of time on the forum.

She couldn't help but be alert. She couldn't do that again. She quickly exited the forum and continued to complete her training task for the day.
