Chapter 118 So this is where Jinshan is... (2/2)

After the two had breakfast, Yan Yu locked the courtyard gate from the inside, cutting off all contact with the outside world.

He took Ruan Tang's hand, and with a thought, the two of them entered his space together.

As soon as I entered the space, a large, fluffy yellow ball pounced on me.

"Awoo~"

A half-grown tiger cub rubbed its big head against Ruan Tang's legs, its tail wagging like a propeller.

The little tiger rescued from the mountain was named "Da Ju" by Ruan Tang. Since it has been away from home recently, Yan Yu has put it in his space to keep as a pet.

Ruan Tang bent down, smiled, and scratched Da Ju's chin. The fluffy touch made her feel great.

She played with the orange cat for a while before walking with Yan Yu to the other side of the space.

Yan Yu's space was vast, with a vibrant oasis and ocean on one side, and a vast but barren land on the other.

This was Ruan Tang's first time here.

The land was so dry it looked like it hadn't rained for centuries; the ground was cracked and barren.

The only signs of life were a few scattered trees, about twenty in number.

They're called trees, but they're more like malnourished, crooked sticks, with withered branches and sparse leaves, looking like they could die at any moment.

Unfortunately, Xiaobai fell into a deep sleep after absorbing energy last time and has not woken up yet.

Otherwise, it would have rolled around on the ground in excitement, because it could smell that the few small fruits growing on these dying, crooked trees were all precious treasures containing pure energy.

Ruan Tang couldn't see the benefits of the fruit, but with a sweep of her divine sense, she clearly perceived the secret hidden beneath this arid land.

Her eyes suddenly lit up.

This...this underground is actually a massive elemental ore vein!

Ruan Tang looked at the cracked earth beneath her feet, then turned to look at Yan Yu beside her, and felt a pang of regret.

If I had known he had such a treasure trove, why would I have gone through all that trouble to wait so long to form a contract with him?

With so many elemental stones, forming a bond will be a piece of cake!

She finally understood why she and Yan Yu could cultivate much faster in his space than outside.

Nonsense, how could you not cultivate quickly when you're guarding an entire elemental ore vein?

This is practically sitting on a mountain of gold!

Yan Yu noticed her intense gaze, stopped, turned around to look at her, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Ruan Tang pointed to the ground beneath her feet and asked curiously, "Brother, why isn't this place watered? It's all dried up like this."

Upon hearing this, Yan Yu's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.

“I’ve tried it.” His voice was calm. “Whether it’s fresh water or seawater, it’s absorbed instantly when poured on, but this land remains unchanged.”

After listening, Ruan Tang sighed knowingly.

She tugged at Yan Yu's sleeve, gesturing for him to look down, and explained in a soft, sweet voice, "Brother, there's an elemental vein down there, so ordinary water is useless."

As she spoke, she took out a storage bag from her small cloth bag, rummaged around for a moment, and took out five crystal-clear stones that emitted a faint light, and put them into Yan Yu's large palm.

"Here, use this."

Ruan Tang tilted her head back, her bright, watery almond-shaped eyes sparkling like they were filled with stars.

"Soak this in water, then use that water to water the land."

"After watering it for seven consecutive days, there will be new changes here." (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
