Maybe I shouldn't die.

On the way back to the courtyard, a new notification came on Fang Yue’s disciple token.

Senior Sister Zhu Qing'an has successfully survived the Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation. The sect will hold a Nascent Soul Ceremony for her in three months. At that time, all the sects in the Northern Territory will send people to congratulate her.

Fang Yue could imagine that it would be a lively and bustling conference. However, it had nothing to do with her. For an outer sect disciple like her, she might not even know which direction the door of the venue opened.

She suppressed the turmoil in her heart and put her attention back into cultivation. She had learned the spell and planted the black hemp grass. In the following days, Fang Yue spent her time refining spirit stones, practicing spells, and cultivating skills. Except for the spirit grass planting course every three days, she never went out again.

Besides practicing, she would pass the time by reading the Complete Collection of Spiritual Medicines, and her days were fulfilling and peaceful.

She deeply realized the meaning of "time does not matter in cultivation". In the blink of an eye, another month had passed.

On this day, when Fang Yue was practicing, she realized that the spiritual power in her meridians and dantian had reached saturation. She knew that she had reached the peak of the fourth level of Qi Refining and it was time to break through to the fifth level.

She sped up the practice of the technique and continued to absorb spiritual energy from the outside world. The spiritual energy flowed into her dantian through her meridians, making the already saturated dantian seem overwhelmed.

However, Fang Yue understood that she must not stop at this moment. Once she stopped, it would mean that the breakthrough had failed, and it would be more difficult to break through next time.

Finally, after the spiritual energy was continuously input into her Dantian, with a "pop" sound, her Dantian was slightly expanded and could accommodate more spiritual energy. After a month of hard training, she had successfully broken through the fifth level of Qi Refining.

Fang Yue couldn't wait to try it out, and sure enough, compared to when she was at the fourth level of refining, after breaking through the fifth level, she was able to use the spell four times continuously.

With enough spiritual power to cast spells, she can finally take on the task of planting spiritual herbs.

Fang Yue checked her system panel.

After receiving the reward, her life expectancy has increased by four years and three months. Although the increase each time is not much, her life expectancy has been slowly increasing, and she is very satisfied.

When she walked out of the room, the black hemp grass had matured. She carefully dug out all the mature spiritual herbs, totaling more than 1000 pieces.

Fang Yue divided it into two parts, leaving half for making talisman paper, and the remaining half, Fang Yue planned to take to the trading hall to exchange for points.

Having just broken through to the fifth level of Qi Refining, Fang Yue has no plans to continue practicing.

After asking on the disciple token, she learned that her companions were still practicing, so she walked towards the trading hall alone.

The trading hall was as busy as usual, with people coming and going. Fang Yue found the counter for purchasing black spirit grass and exchanged 500 black spirit grass for 50 points. Afterwards, she purchased a month's worth of body-refining liquid, spending 60 points.

Then, she came to the Deacon Hall. She first reported her cultivation level. After the test was correct, she received a reward of 100 points, received a monthly allowance of 50 points, and paid one month's rent.

After doing all this, she checked her disciple token and found that she had 250 points left. To buy a better talisman pen, she needed 150 points. Fang Yue hesitated for a moment, and considering that the talisman paper had not been successfully made, she decided not to buy the talisman pen for the time being.

Finally, she came to the task acceptance area on the second floor. This was her first time here, and she was full of anticipation but also a little nervous.

In the spacious hall on the second floor, a huge crystal screen stands on the wall, occupying the entire wall, with various tasks constantly scrolling on it.

These tasks are divided into primary, intermediate and advanced levels according to their difficulty. Primary tasks are suitable for Qi Refining disciples, intermediate tasks require the accompaniment of Foundation Establishment monks, and advanced tasks require the accompaniment of Golden Core monks.

Each level of tasks is divided into more detailed categories, including gathering tasks, planting tasks, hunting tasks, etc. The content is very detailed and rich.

Fang Yue found the primary mission planting area. Most of the people standing in front of the screen in this area were new disciples like her. Fang Yue noticed that once a mission was accepted, it would disappear from the screen.

She carefully searched for a task that suited her. Since it was her first time to take on a planting task, she wanted to choose some spiritual plants that had a short growth cycle and were easier to care for.

After careful selection, she finally chose the blood coagulation grass. This magical grass can mature in one month, likes sunlight, is drought-resistant, has strong vitality, and is very suitable for beginners to plant for the first time.

After choosing the task, Fang Yue came to the counter, bowed, handed the disciple token to the uncle who was registering, and said:

"The disciple wishes to accept the task of planting blood-clotting grass."

After taking the disciple token, the uncle glanced at Fang Yue.

"New disciple? First time accepting a mission?"

Fang Yue replied respectfully: "Yes"

The uncle took out a bag of seeds and planting tools and handed them back to Fang Yue along with the token.

"The mission requires you to hand in 500 spiritual herbs within a month. You will get 50 points after completing it. For every additional five spiritual herbs you hand in, you will get one point."

"These are the blood-clotting grass seeds and planting tools. The planting tools are rented by the sect and must be used properly and not damaged. In addition, the specific location of the spiritual field has been issued to the disciple tokens, and you can find it by yourself."

"Thank you, uncle-master." Fang Yue took the token, put the seeds and tools into the storage bracelet, bowed, and then left.

There are many etiquettes in the spiritual world, and she has become accustomed to it.

After leaving the Deacon Hall, Fang Yue carefully browsed the map in the disciple token, followed the instructions on the map, and soon arrived at a valley.

This valley is surrounded by mountains, with terraced fields and a variety of plants in each spiritual field. Some are planted with spiritual grains, some are planted with spiritual medicines, and there are also fruit trees, vegetable fields, etc.

Human figures can be vaguely seen among the spiritual fields, some making hand gestures, some bending over to tend to things. Formations can also be seen separating the spiritual fields.

Fang Yue followed the instructions on the map and found her own spiritual field. Perhaps the spiritual field had never been barren and was not overgrown with weeds.
