The Empress of Ten Reincarnations Just to Find Me

Chen Han also took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and simply controlled the vines to reinforce the fence in the yard.

When entering the wooden house, it was very old and covered with dust. There was not even a quilt. There was only a broken bed board on the bed. Chen Han exclaimed that it was a real rip-off.

"Ah? No way, do I have to go to the shop outside to buy bedding myself?" He also sighed helplessly.

Chen Han looked at little Mengyue beside him and felt anxious. He didn't care, but the main thing was that Mengyue, this little kid, really couldn't stand it...

At this moment, the mirror flew out of his chest uncontrollably, followed by a flash of light, and the Dark Ring floated out.

"It's not bad here. Although the conditions are a bit poor, it's a place to stay at least. It's quite quiet. I'll first teach you how to refine the herbs I picked yesterday. Then you can go and get the task, and I'll teach you how to practice." Mingjie looked up and down in the room.

"Okay! Let's get started and see what we should do next." Chen Han couldn't wait to take out the herbs he picked yesterday from the storage bag.

Xiao Mengyue also came over curiously.

Mingjie looked around the room with a serious expression, pointing to the large iron pot that needed to be heated with fire and said, "Hmm, well, isn't there an iron pot here? Go find some firewood first, and then go get some water with the wooden bucket."

"???"

Chen Han was confused. He frowned, squinted his eyes and looked at the other person with confusion.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and go!"

Mingjie frowned and urged.

He didn't dare to stay any longer. Although he was confused, he had to do as he was told.

"Strange, even though I don't know anything, but don't immortals use furnaces to make elixirs? This one uses a cauldron..."

Chen Han muttered to himself as he walked, leaving only Xiao Mengyue and Mingjie in the room.

Not long after, Chen Han found a well inside the outer gate and drew some water. For him, firewood was just a matter of running around and it didn't take much effort at all. Going out one more time also helped him get familiar with the environment of the outer gate.

"Okay, I'm back. Tell me! What should we do next, Sister Mirror?" Chen Han put the firewood on the ground and then sat down.

The Hades figure swayed slightly and said seriously:

"Well, I've already washed the pot while you were out. Pour water into the pot first and wait for it to boil. Then, add the herbs into the pot one by one in the order I specified. Remember, the timing of adding each herb is crucial. Any mistake will result in failure."

"Huh? No, isn't this similar to the steps for stewing? I thought refining medicine required using special pots and furnaces! Is this reliable?"

Chen Han couldn't help but complain.

"What do you know, kid! Do you understand that the simplest and most effective medicine only requires the simplest and most plain refining method?" Mingjie rolled his eyes at him and patted his head.

Chen Han rubbed his head and had no choice but to do as he was told. Then Master Chen began to boil the medicine according to the instructions of the Ming Ring...

After a while, the water in the pot began to boil slowly, and Chen Han put different herbs into the pot in the order specified by Ming Jie.

"Pay attention to controlling the temperature!" After Mingjie said this, he danced with his hands, and a stream of ice-blue energy spurted out from his fingertips onto the flame, and the fire was extinguished in an instant.

"Alright, cover the pot and bring it to a boil in a moment. Now go take on your mission. Take care of the basics of life first before we talk about cultivation."

After saying this, Mingjie returned to the mirror.

...

Chen Han took Meng Yue out of the door and came to the notice board at the registration office. There were various wooden signs on it with various tasks engraved on them.

He took a quick look and found that most of the work was physical labor, such as carrying water, moving wood and stones, and transporting goods for the outer or inner gates.

At this moment, when Chen Han was hesitating about which one to choose, the voice of the Dark Ring came...

"Freak, you chose everything except transporting cargo."

Chen Han was stunned when he heard this, and a hint of doubt emerged in his heart: "Why, Sister Mirror? Wouldn't transporting the goods be easier and the money more cost-effective?"

However, Ming Jie did not give a clear answer. "It's a long story. Just do whatever you are told to do."

"But...but, I'm not a cow or a horse. If I finish all these at this time, I will be exhausted to death. Should I move to the evening?" Chen Han looked at the bright sun at noon.

"Don't worry, I won't tire you out."

"... "

...

The steward then looked at Chen Han holding so many wooden signs with a hint of surprise, "Are you sure you want to take on so many tasks? These are all physically demanding tasks, very tiring."

Chen Han gritted his teeth and said firmly, "I'm sure."

"Oh, you're really crazy. Alright, alright, go get some work!"

After leaving the registration office, Chen Han was full of confusion, but he didn't feel dissatisfied. He still believed that there must be a reason why Sister Mirror asked him to do this for no reason.

He also started doing tasks with Xiao Mengyue, carrying water, moving stones, chopping wood...

"Brother, are you training yourself to practice cultivation?"

Under the fiery red sunset, Chen Han looked helpless as he moved stones.

In the evening, Chen Han brought Xiao Mengyue back to the house with a bunch of things in his hands. These were the things he exchanged for today's contribution points.

There were some food, some crop seeds and farm tools, and two sets of bedding.

He put the things away, and his palms were covered with scratches.

At this moment, the Dark Ring floated out from the mirror, and then a trace of cold energy surged from her palm and injected into Chen Han's whole body.

Chen Han immediately felt cool and comfortable. Although the injury on his hand had not healed much, the fatigue and pain in his body had improved a lot.

Afterwards, Yuanli surged out from the fingers of the Dark Ring again, and the firewood under the big pot was ignited again.

"Are you tired, little freak? Are you feeling better now?" Mingjie walked forward and asked with concern.

Chen Han handed Xiao Mengyue a pancake and replied, "Much better. Thank you, Sister Mirror. Now, can you explain why you made me do so much?"

Then Mingjie nodded, and then she sat down cross-legged on the spot, and said with a serious face:

"Before, I only briefly explained the cultivation rules and system to you. Now, I will explain your current situation in detail."

"You are now in the early stage of the Yuanhai Realm. Do you think you should work moderately every day and spend more time on cultivation?"

Chen Han nodded upon hearing this.

"No." She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Chen Han seriously.

"In fact, the most important thing in the Yuanhai Realm is not just practicing, but refining the body!"

"Body training?" Chen Han looked curious.

"That's right. The Yuanhai Realm and the Yuanbing Realm are closely related. Only after a cultivator has established a solid physical foundation in the Yuanhai Realm can he better withstand the Yuan force."

"Then, when you break through to the Yuan Bing realm, you will be able to endure the pain and damage to your body that comes with condensing the Dao Flower. This will allow you to condense more Dao Flowers when you first reach the Yuan Bing realm."

"When you reach the Yuanbing realm, your Yuan force will not be subject to simple restrictions, just like this."

The next second, Chen Han felt that the temperature in the room, which had been very warm, even a little hot, began to drop gradually at a speed that could be perceived by the body. Then he saw that tiny ice threads were slowly condensing on the surface of the remaining water in the wooden barrel.

"Brother, I'm a little cold..." Xiao Mengyue was eating a sesame seed cake when she started to shiver...

Seeing this, Chen Han quickly stopped him and said, "Sister Mirror, please put it away first."

"Ah."

Then, the temperature in the room began to drop slowly.

"That's right. The more Dao Flowers you condense, the more you will be able to hold and control the Yuan Energy of Heaven and Earth. The more Dao Flowers you have, the stronger your cultivation talent and aptitude will be in the future."

"So, the Yuanhai Realm is extremely important. You must not be impatient. Only some high-level disciples and cultivators can access it. Those at the lower levels will not know about it. The high-level ones will not tell these to the low-level cultivators, let alone tell you the way to success. They will only tell you that hard work is the only way out."

Chen Han suddenly understood what was going on and stood up. He finally understood why Mingjie asked him to do such thankless work, and his heart was filled with gratitude.

"Thank you for your guidance, Sister Mirror. I understand now. I will definitely follow your guidance in the future."

At this time, Xiao Mengyue was watching Chen Han's performance and smiled as if she understood.
