Yun Heng understood what the System meant.
Xie Wujiu might not pose enough of a threat at the moment, but the fortune of the Heavenly Dao was inherently full of variables.
No one knew what opportunities he might encounter next.
However, from Wei Quechen's style of doing things, one could roughly guess what kind of person Xie Wujiu was.
Like master, like disciple.
Keeping an eye out would certainly do no harm.
【To get back to the main topic,】
【I'm your portable little assistant from now on.】
【In the future, whether the original plot changes or new developments arise with Xie Wujiu, I can inform you at the earliest possible moment.】
【I can also convey various messages from within the shattered realm for you.】
【Even when you're in the outside world, you can keep track of everything happening inside the shattered realm at any time through me.】
【Furthermore, I can speak on my own initiative whenever I want from now on—no need to wait for you to wake me up.】
Yun Heng's expression relaxed.
These functions were actually quite practical.
She finally had a truly intelligent assistant.
Yun Heng shifted her attention back to the System panel.
The number in the top right corner was still 6,300.
She thought about it for a moment and decided to save them up for now.
Yun Heng closed the card draw page and stood up from her chair.
“Let's go, System. Into the shattered realm.”
In the next moment, with a thought, she flashed and entered the shattered realm.
Everyone in the shattered realm was tending to their respective duties.
People occasionally entered and exited the alchemy room and refining workshop, while the Green-Clad Attendants were tending to the spirit fields.
The injured Shadow Guards and Golden Armored Guards were still sitting in meditation to heal.
With the aid of the healing pills refined by Xuan Heng, their aura was already much more stable than yesterday.
Yun Heng did not disturb everyone.
She first chose suitable locations and brought out all the mountain peaks she had drawn this time.
One building card after another turned into light, flying toward different directions of the shattered realm.
Accompanied by deep, rumbling roars, the ground vibrated continuously. Several massive mountain peaks rose from the earth, arrayed around the Guiyuan Main Hall according to the locations Yun Heng had selected.
In the very center was the Main Peak.
The Alchemy Peak, Refining Peak, Spirit Herb Peak, and Sword Peak were distributed in different directions, echoing the Main Peak from afar.
The distances between the five peaks were not too far, encircling an extremely vast central valley between them.
Once all the mountain peaks were properly set up, Yun Heng took out the spirit veins and ore veins she had obtained to start arranging them.
The Earth Fire Spirit Vein was best suited for alchemy, so Yun Heng placed it beneath the Alchemy Peak.
After the crimson Earth Fire Spirit Vein entered the mountain, it immediately connected with the entire Alchemy Peak.
Strands of gentle yet stable Earth Fire power flowed upward along the body of the mountain.
In the future, when Xuan Heng and the alchemists on the peak refined pills, they could directly draw upon the subterranean Earth Fire without having to rely entirely on their own spiritual energy to sustain the furnace fire.
The Taibai Profound Gold Mine was placed beneath the Refining Peak by Yun Heng.
After the entire vein was embedded into the mountain, a sharp gold spiritual energy soon emerged within the Refining Peak.
As long as it was properly mined, it could continuously yield Taibai Profound Gold for Xuan Zheng and the refiners on the peak to use.
The High-grade spirit vein paid as compensation by the Xuanxiao Sect was placed beneath the Main Peak.
The small top-grade spirit stone vein was also temporarily arranged within the Main Peak, to be managed uniformly by the Main Peak.
Finally, Yun Heng brought out the spirit vein she had brought back from the Qingming Secret Realm.
The Mountain-River Spirit-Nourishing Box opened, and a spirit vein radiating greenish-white light gradually revealed itself.
Only now did Yun Heng truly see its grand scale.
This spirit vein was more than an order of magnitude larger than the High-grade spirit vein sent by the Xuanxiao Sect.
The spirit vein stretched extremely far, its end invisible at a glance, and the spiritual energy contained within was so dense it almost materialized into substance.
Just releasing a portion of it from the Mountain-River Spirit-Nourishing Box caused the surrounding spiritual energy to surge rapidly.
Yun Heng watched in silent wonder.
No wonder the moment she took this spirit vein away, the Qingming Secret Realm collapsed directly.
It seemed this thing really was likely the main spirit vein supporting the Qingming Secret Realm.
Controlling the Mountain-River Spirit-Nourishing Box, Yun Heng set the entire spirit vein beneath the Guiyuan Main Hall.
The moment the spirit vein completely settled into place, greenish-white spirit light spread subterraneanly in all directions.
A connection seemed to form among the various spirit veins and ore veins, and the originally dispersed spiritual energy rapidly gathered throughout the entire shattered realm.
In mere moments, the spiritual energy in the shattered realm became countlessly many times denser than before.
A very faint layer of spiritual mist even floated into the air.
Those who were cultivating noticed the change immediately.
The spiritual energy that had been slowly entering their bodies suddenly grew several times denser, and their cultivation speed rose accordingly.
Everyone stopped what they were doing.
Guessing that the Young Lord had arrived, they immediately rushed from various places toward Yun Heng's location.
Qingxiao and Canglan were the fastest.
Two figures, one green and one yellow, rapidly approached from the distance, coming to a halt before Yun Heng in the blink of an eye.
“Master!”
Yun Heng looked down at the two spirit beasts.
The wounds left from the previous battle were no longer visible on their bodies.
Qingxiao's previously missing scales had grown back, smooth and complete in dark green.
Canglan's injuries had also fully recovered, its aura far more potent than when it had first entered the shattered realm.
Checking them with her divine sense, Yun Heng revealed surprise in her eyes.
“You've both broken through to the peak Nascent Soul stage?”
The two spirit beasts nodded together.
Qingxiao spoke first:
“The Soul Transformation Jade Marrow Fruit Master gave us was extraordinarily effective.”
“The spiritual energy here is also extremely dense. After we refined the spirit fruit, not only did our injuries fully heal, but our cultivation also successfully broke through.”
Canglan stood beside Qingxiao and nodded along.
Yun Heng felt deeply gratified.
She hadn't expected the two spirit beasts she contracted to be so hardworking as well.
As they spoke, the others arrived one after another.
“There's no need for formal etiquette.”
Yun Che stepped out from the crowd.
“Does the Young Lord have new gains again?”
“We noticed just now that the spiritual energy in the shattered realm suddenly grew much denser.”
Yun Heng nodded, raising her hand to point toward the several high peaks that had risen from the ground in the distance.
“I brought back several spirit veins, as well as a few mountain peaks and many buildings.”
“From now on, you will have proper places to live.”
Everyone looked in the direction she indicated.
In the originally empty shattered realm, five towering mountain peaks had appeared.
Every peak was abundant with spiritual energy, enveloped in mountain mist.
Surprise and joy surfaced on everyone's faces.
How much time had even passed? Not only had the Young Lord brought back several spirit veins, but she had even directly brought back so many mountain peaks and buildings.
Without delay, Yun Heng continued placing the other cards she had drawn.
The Peak Master Hall, Elders' Compound, Dining Hall, Peak Affairs Hall, Peak Treasury, Lecture Hall, Sword Practice Ground, Sword-Testing Platform, Sword Stele Forest, and Sword-Washing Pond were all placed by her into suitable locations on several peaks in sequence.
The Large Alchemy Room and Large Refining Workshop were also relocated to the Alchemy Peak and Refining Peak, respectively.
The supporting buildings, spirit plants, spirit fields, and Ordinary Spirit Soil for each peak were all set up.
The new spirit fields were placed on the Spirit Herb Peak, and the original ten mu of spirit fields were transferred over together with them.
Large swathes of Ordinary Spirit Soil were used to improve the environment of each peak, planting the peak's worth of spirit plants she had drawn.
Six hundred Disciple Courtyards were distributed and arranged across the residential areas of the various peaks.
After this round of arrangements, the several mountain peaks that had been empty originally now basically had a complete structure.
