In the Budding Cultivator Hall.

After a busy day, Tao Wen returned from outside the Sect.

She rubbed her brow, feeling somewhat tired.

It wasn’t physical exhaustion, but rather a weariness of the heart.

A few days ago, representing Qingdan Valley, she had attended a Core Formation Ceremony of a vassal sect.

This originally minor sect, which Qingdan Valley never used to take seriously,

had a stroke of ancestral luck, and an old, almost dying cultivator at the peak of Foundation Establishment took a desperate chance and miraculously achieved the Golden Core Period.

Just like that, a previously insignificant sect leapt up to become a first-class power!

Such a vassal sect could not be casually dismissed anymore.

According to normal practices, Qingdan Valley would send a Golden Core Elder of the same order to offer congratulations.

Considering paving connections for the incumbent Budding Cultivator, Tao Wen, Qing Yunzi sent her there instead.

Tao Wen gladly went.

The other party naturally received her with great importance.

Not the least bit offended by Tao Wen’s mere Ninth Level Foundation Establishment realm, they were actually quite happy.

After all, as long as Tao Wen didn’t make mistakes, her future as the Qingdan Valley Sect Leader was virtually guaranteed!

If they could curry favor with her, they’d have the shade of a big tree to enjoy.

The other party was a newly appointed Budding Cultivator with not many supporters, so if they could catch her eye now...

Therefore, they were especially attentive!

But for Tao Wen, going back and forth, not to mention the journey’s hardships and meeting a bunch of new faces, was quite tiring for her.

Yet, it was a good thing!

Now with Tao Yisheng in control of the Tao Family, she began to handle Sect affairs.

It was only a matter of time before the Tao Family’s prosperity in the coming century!

After resting for a while, Tao Wen had a thought and called over an attendant.

”I’ve seen the Budding Cultivator!”

Looking at this Foundation Establishment Middle Stage attendant who served the Budding Cultivator, Tao Wen slowly spoke.

”How has that person been behaving recently?”

It was obvious who ”that person” referred to.

The attendant respectfully said, ”For the past six months, they frequently visited the Tai Dan Court, but now they hardly go there. Every day, if they’re not cultivating, they’re practicing techniques, and even during rest, they’re often studying texts.”

Tao Wen’s face showed surprise.

”A diligent cultivator?”

As far as she knew, Luo Chen never seemed to have anything to do with being a diligent cultivator.

Intelligence gathering on Luo Chen had started since they decided to ask for his help.

Latterly, after Sect instructors secretly entrusted her to keep Luo Chen temporarily in Qingdan Valley, a group was specifically sent to gather detailed intelligence about his time after arriving in Tianlan.

The intelligence showed whether he was aligning with Ice Castle or ambitiously planting the Luo Tian Creed’s flag in Tianlan. It was clear that Luo Chen was someone who couldn’t stand loneliness.

But unexpectedly!

Since arriving at Qingdan Valley, both before and after the Seed Cultivator Battle, he remained quiet and almost never went out.

This behavior was strikingly similar to many Golden Core Elders in the Sect who are devoted to quiet cultivation, undisturbed by worldly affairs.

Moreover!

A Weak 3rd Order Spiritual Land was indeed excellent, especially for someone like Tao Wen at the peak of Ninth Level Foundation Establishment—it was a cultivation environment specifically designed for powerful cultivators like her.

For ordinary Middle Stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, it was fine to cultivate there occasionally for a day or two.

But to stick to it day after day for months on end, like Luo Chen was doing,

That was a matter of shocking significance.

Even Tao Wen typically cultivated for a few days before taking a day or two to rest.

After all, the density of Spirit Qi was too high, and moving it through the cultivation technique too frequently placed a heavy burden on both the meridians and the Divine Soul.

”Could it be because he encountered such an excellent cultivation land and didn’t want to waste it, so he’s biting the bullet to cultivate every minute and every second?” Tao Wen muttered to herself.
