The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Chapter 1125: Shangguan Yunfei Ascends to the God Realm

Xiao Han ran back to the vicinity of Shui Wuhen's cave.

She wanted to find a place closer to Shui Wuhen to build her nest, but after looking around, she couldn't find a suitable safe location.

Shui Wuhen rested for a while and felt that the pain in his body had finally subsided a lot, so he prepared to go outside to find some plant roots and stems to improve his taste.

Mice are omnivorous, and a balanced diet of meat and vegetables is the best diet for them.

As soon as I came out, I saw lynxes wandering around nearby.

"Xiao Han, didn't you go back to sleep? Why are you back again?"

When Xiao Han saw Shui Wuhen come out, she hurriedly ran over and said, "A male lynx has come over there. The lynx mother is probably getting pregnant and having kittens again."

Shui Wuhen immediately understood.

He looked around, but there was no suitable place for the lynx to live.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "How about I dig a very large cave for you right next to this one, so you can live comfortably inside?"

Lynxes don't dig burrows, so they don't live in underground caves. No problem, rats are expert diggers; they can dig a burrow for Xiao Han.

Xiao Han immediately said, "Okay, okay, you dig a big cave for me, and make sure there's a back door. If we encounter danger and other predators block the entrance, we can escape through the back door."

Shui Wuhen agreed.

Of course, while Shui Wuhen was digging the hole, Xiao Han couldn't just sit idle either.

She had to go hunting and find some food that mice liked to eat, so that Shui Wuhen would have something to eat when she got tired from working.

Full of fighting spirit, Xiao Han began searching for prey again.

The mouse is indeed a master at digging holes; in just two days, it dug a deep burrow.

The cave entrance wasn't large, just big enough for Xiao Han to squeeze through. But the sleeping area inside was big enough to accommodate three or four Xiao Hans.

The cave inside had another exit, which was covered by a large clump of withered grass.

To avoid attracting the attention of other wild animals, the excavated soil, after being leveled, was completely covered with dead branches, fallen leaves, and weeds.

The entrance to the cave that is frequently used can be blocked with a ball of dry grass and then covered with a leafy branch.

Xiao Han was delighted to see her new home and went inside to check it out.

It is very spacious and comfortable.

She immediately began busily decorating her new home.

First, bring in a few leaves from a plant with large leaves and lay them on the ground. Then, start collecting soft, dry grass to make a nest.

Oh, lying in the comfortable cave, I feel very safe and happy.

However, it's still quite troublesome to talk to Shui Wuhen in the next cave.

She ran out again and lay down at the entrance of the Waterless Cave, calling out.

"Shui Wuhen, come out here for a moment."

Shui Wuhen, covered in dirt, crawled out.

Xiao Han didn't think much of it and said, "Why don't you connect the caves on my side with yours? It would be so much more convenient for us to chat then."

Shui Wuhen said helplessly, "Look at me, I'm digging right now, aren't I? It'll be connected soon. We'll also dig a storage room for you next to it so you can temporarily store your prey."

Xiao Han chuckled a little sheepishly, "Thank you for your hard work. Don't worry, you'll live a life of luxury with me from now on. Others are a den of snakes and rats, we're a den of cats and rats."

After saying that, it patted Shui Wuhen's head with its paw.

Water Without Trace: Is this what it means to completely let loose after turning into a beast?

As human beings, it is almost instinctive to plan ahead and stockpile food.

Xiao Han also wanted to stockpile food.

However, she mainly eats meat, and meat doesn't keep for more than two days in hot weather.

With the cold winter approaching, meat can be stored for a longer period of time.

Xiao Han realized that pregnant lynxes would need more meat to nurture their unborn kittens during the winter, so she would have to frequently deliver food to the lynx mothers and thus expand her hunting range.

Therefore, on this day, she decided to expand her hunting range and go to see more distant places.

Xiao Han didn't expect that after she climbed over a hillside, she would see a stream.

After she became a kitten, she initially drank milk every day and naturally didn't need to drink water.

Later, she started drinking rainwater from puddles or the blood of her prey, just like other small animals.

If there is really no water to drink, you can also lick the dew on the leaves of plants in the early morning.

Therefore, she was unaware that there was a stream nearby.

There are fish in the stream, of course. Domestic cats like to eat fish, and lynxes are no exception.

But how do we catch fish?

Xiao Han walked along the stream and then found a shallow pool.

In some places, the water level in this shallow area is only a few inches. Because the water flows downstream, some fish are carried downstream by the current, and their backs are exposed above the water in this shallow area.

Xiao Han saw two otters guarding the diving spot on the opposite bank, catching fish to eat, and naturally she wouldn't let them go either.

Generally speaking, lynxes are afraid of water and do not like their fur to get wet.

But Xiao Han wasn't afraid; on the contrary, she was very excited.

When you see large waves on the water, you can see a big fish, about a foot long, with its back exposed above the water, rushing across this shallow pool.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Han jumped into the water, waded through the current, and bit the big fish.

Large fish in the water have tremendous strength.

The big fish struggled and broke free. Fortunately, the shallows were more than two zhang long, giving her another chance to catch it.

This time, she held on tightly, ignoring the water splashed from the fish's tail that soaked her fur, her sharp teeth piercing into the fish's flesh.

It firmly gripped the big fish in its mouth, then quickly ran ashore and sped towards its nest.

Inside the cave, right next to the cat's den, there was a separate space, which was the granary that Shui Wuhen had built for Xiao Han.

Then, the place connecting the cat's nest and the mouse's nest is a small passage.

Only water-trace-free movement is possible; Xiao Han's body is too large to pass through.

Xiao Han strongly suspected that Shui Wuhen had dug this connecting passage so narrowly because he was worried that one day she might be half asleep and hungry, and if she went through the passage, saw a rat, and bit it to death.

Having caught a big fish, Xiao Han excitedly shouted towards the connecting passage, "Shui Wuhen, come and eat the fish!"

When Shui Wuhen arrived, he was also surprised to see such a large fish.

"Where did you get this?"

Xiao Han recounted how she discovered the stream and how she could catch fish in it.

Finally, he said smugly, "We have another hunting ground. We won't have to worry about going hungry anymore."

Just as Xiao Han and Shui Wuhen were being tempered by being thrown into the bodies of wild beasts by the spirit of the little tower, another celestial phenomenon of ascension appeared in the Immortal Realm.

Shangguan Yunfei's enormous Dharma form appeared in the void, visible to all cultivators in the Immortal Realm who simply looked up.

Looking at the Dharma image in the sky, Liu Qinghan felt a pang of sadness.

Among the cultivators from the Yuan Tian Continent who ascended to the Immortal Realm, Liu Qinghan was the first to ascend.

But now that she has ascended to the God Realm, she has not only failed to surpass several juniors, but even her long-time rival, the Old Daoist Shangguan, has ascended before her.

No, she must ascend as soon as possible.
