The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Chapter 1067: Xiao Han's Troubles

The following day, following the route guidance in the mission jade tablet, Shui Wuhen went through the Divine Palace's special teleportation array and was teleported to a floating island with continuous mountain ranges.

Upon arriving at the mine, he handed the mission jade token to the Divine Lord Realm cultivator on duty. His own storage ring was sealed, and he took the storage bag issued by the Divine Palace and entered the mine.

The laws governing each interface are different, and their suppression of cultivators naturally varies as well.

These powerful cultivators from the lower realms, upon arriving in the divine realm, quickly discovered that their once world-destroying abilities were now so weak that even cutting rocks was difficult, and they needed special mining tools to excavate.

Having experienced this kind of setback when he first ascended to the Immortal Realm, Shui Wuhen wasn't too disappointed and quietly began mining as required.

This mandatory task is only three months long, it's not a long time, just hang in there and it will be over.

Consider it a test of one's mental fortitude.

Shui Wuhen quickly adjusted his mindset and began his arduous mining career.

It took Xiao Han, who comprehended the Dao in a special secret realm, a full three hundred years to advance to the Divine Lord realm.

Xiao Han felt that it was a rare opportunity to enter this place, and wanted to see if he could go further. Reluctant to leave, he remained closed off and oblivious, focusing on comprehending the secrets.

Unfortunately, after more than a hundred years of seclusion, she was still only at the Divine Lord Realm and could not gain any greater benefits.

Ba Dou had long since woken up. Seeing that its master was meditating and Ling Xiao was asleep, it didn't dare to disturb them, so it stayed in the Linglong Immortal Abode eating, drinking and playing by itself.

When I get really bored, I just take a nap.

It has just entered the late stage of the Pseudo-God Realm and it is unlikely to advance again in the short term. Anyway, there are good things in the storage space, so it is not worried about its cultivation.

During the days of seclusion and enlightenment, time lost its meaning, and Xiao Han had no idea how long he had been there.

She simply felt she couldn't gain any more insight, which is why she had no choice but to leave.

Ba Dou, inside the exquisite fairy abode, saw its master finally stand up and stop comprehending, and happily shouted, "Master, are you leaving?"

It's really had enough of being here.

As soon as Xiao Han moved, Ling Xiao was awakened. When he saw that Xiao Han had already reached the Divine Lord realm, a big smile immediately appeared on his face.

"I promised you I would help you advance to the level of a God-King, I didn't lie to you, did I?"

Ling Xiao moved swiftly and appeared beside Xiao Han, a smile on his face.

Xiao Han bowed respectfully to him, "Thank you, Senior Ling!"

Regardless of Ling Xiao's intentions towards her, at least for now, she has genuinely benefited and should be grateful for being able to advance to a higher realm so easily.

"Oh, why call me senior? There's no need for such formalities between us. Just call me Xiao... or Ling Xiao."

He originally wanted to call him Brother Xiao, but then he remembered that Xiao Han was older than him. Calling him Brother Xiao felt awkward, as if he needed Xiao Han to take care of and protect him. In the end, he had no choice but to call him by his name.

Xiao Han had no idea about his inner thoughts. She simply smiled and said, "Having received such a great benefit, I should be grateful no matter what."

Ling Xiao stopped arguing with her and prepared to take her out.

The black hole here is extremely dangerous when you enter, but it's not so dangerous when you leave because of the change in the power of the laws. However, Ling Xiao is still worried and wants to protect it personally.

Ba Dou remained inside the Linglong Immortal Abode. Xiao Han put away the Linglong Immortal Abode and left this special space with Ling Xiao.

Standing once again amidst the sea of ​​clouds, feeling the tangible improvement in her cultivation, Xiao Han felt exceptionally cheerful.

Even though Ling Xiao told her that five hundred years had passed since she went into seclusion to comprehend the Dao, while he himself had only spent a few decades advancing in his cultivation, it did not affect Xiao Han's good mood at all.

Consider that she ascended to the realm of gods only a little over six hundred years ago.

To advance to the Divine Lord level in just over six hundred years—that's the speed of a genius. Of course, she wouldn't compare herself to a freakish genius like Ling Xiao.

And most importantly, once she reaches the Divine Lord Realm, she will be qualified to live in the Second Heaven with dignity.

Thinking of the scenery in the Second Heaven, which was even more beautiful than the Immortal Realm, and the comfortable living environment, Xiao Han felt that she had finally overcome all her hardships.

Of course, before living in the Second Heaven, she still had to travel around the First Heaven.

Firstly, to familiarize themselves with the various floating islands of the First Heaven, and secondly, to see if they could find out any news about Yun Que.

Of course, at this moment, Xiao Han had no idea that Shui Wuhen had already ascended to heaven and joined the Divine Palace, and was currently mining.

After her initial joy, Xiao Han felt another worry creeping in.

Ling Xiao not only had to stay by her side the whole time, but also wanted to hug and kiss her from time to time. His eyes were filled with love that seemed to overflow, which made her think of a word: "lovey-dovey eyes".

Emma, ​​Xiao Han instantly got goosebumps.

No, she had to find a way to resolve Ling Xiao's love tribulation. She didn't want to be the one to flee to the mortal realm before Ling Xiao had even finished overcoming his tribulation.

"Um, Senior Ling..."

Seeing that Ling Xiao's expression had changed, she quickly changed her words.

"Fellow Daoist Ling..."

Ling Xiao still glared at him with dissatisfaction.

"Ling Xiao."

Okay, the kid finally smiled.

Xiao Han felt exhausted. Sure enough, the benefits weren't so easy to come by. She also had to coax her younger brother, who was over a thousand years younger than her.

"Um, you've been in seclusion with me for hundreds of years, and the task that the God Emperor needed to complete is still not finished. How about we go and see if the other God Emperors have turned in their tasks and how they did them?"

She wanted to coax Ling Xiao into doing the mission.

Whether it's sealing memories to reincarnate and undergo tribulations, or traveling to other lower realms, it's impossible for them to take themselves along while doing quests.

As long as he can be with Xiao Han, Ling Xiao doesn't care where he goes or who he sees.

So Xiao Han took out her communication magic item and began to contact Xin Ziqi.

After speaking with Xin Ziqi, they learned that he had already completed his mission and was now living in the Second Heaven. Xiao Han and Ling Xiao then went to visit him.

The place where Xin Ziqi now lives is surrounded by a vibrant spring scene, with lush grass, blooming flowers, and fluttering butterflies.

On the other side, there is a landscape of towering peaks and babbling springs in the distance, with pine and cypress trees providing ample shade and winding paths leading to secluded spots, resembling a traditional Chinese ink painting.

Her palace was built in the middle, and one could see two completely different beautiful landscapes just by looking up.

Xiao Han was genuinely envious.

She longs for a place like that too.

Although these landscapes may not be ethereal or otherworldly, they possess a down-to-earth and reassuring quality.

The three of them sat down in the main hall for receiving guests. After exchanging pleasantries, Xiao Han asked Xin Ziqi about the mission.

Then she learned that Xin Ziqi had chosen to seal his memories, reincarnate as a mortal, and live for more than seventy years with the mindset and perspective of a mortal before returning to his rightful place.

This ordeal truly changed her mindset.

Now she lives in the more pleasant Second Heaven, enjoying a divine life that is infinitely better than being a mortal, while also handling some affairs for the Divine Palace.

Now, Xin Ziqi is peaceful inside and out, and no longer feels that life is meaningless or like a wandering soul.
