In the stable, anger rose spontaneously.
Chen Wen's face was filled with more and more anger. He clenched his fists so tightly that they creaked, as if they were about to explode.
"In the Dacheng Sky Mountain, the five outer peaks all follow the same rules in terms of clothing, food, housing, and transportation, and that is to be self-sufficient." Chen Wen gritted his teeth and explained, "Even the main peaks of the outer peaks are the same. For example, Blue Water Peak still requires everyone to hunt."
"Generally speaking, there isn't a lot of hunting for each person, because during the summer, there will be farming, and the disciples will take turns to look after it. There will be enough food left for the winter, and there won't be much to hunt." Chen Wen said coldly, "But only in this broken place will there be other variables!"
"I heard that this place used to be like this, but everything changed six years ago. It is said that Chen Wuyong used to be a very good teacher, but for some reason, he became like this overnight. Without management, over time, this place started to bully the newcomers and gradually evolved into the current state. "
"There isn't much farmland left because the disciples six years ago didn't farm and the new disciples didn't know how to farm at all, resulting in a very small harvest. Now, the farmland is basically useless! " Chen Wen frowned and gritted his teeth. "So now, they rely on us to hunt for food. In the year that I have been here, I feel that there are significantly fewer animals in the surrounding mountains! Those people not only catch the big ones, but also the small ones. Now, even if we want to hunt, it is getting harder and harder to find food! "
Lu An frowned slightly and did not say a word.
Indeed, catching the small ones was the most irrational behavior. They only looked at the prey in front of them and didn't think further. When he was a slave, no one in Tabukal would catch the small ones, otherwise, they would be ganged up on by all the other slaves.
"Is there anything else you want to know?" Chen Wen saw that Lu An didn't speak and quickly took the initiative to ask, "Although I didn't make much progress in my cultivation this year, I have collected a lot of information!"
Lu An thought and shook his head. "I don't know anything now. Even if I wanted to ask, I don't know where to start."
"In that case, I will tell you some basic things about the Dacheng Sky Mountain!" As he spoke, Chen Wen seriously checked the information in his head. His eyes lit up as he asked, "Do you know about the Outer Ranking?"
"Outer List?" Lu An was stunned. He shook his head and asked, "What's that?"
"It's the ranking list of the disciples of the five outer peaks!" Seeing that Lu An did not know, Chen Wen hurriedly said, "This list only selects the top 100. You should know that there are a lot of people in the five outer peaks. Blue Water Peak has at least 350 people, and the total number of people in the five outer peaks is more than 2000. It is very difficult to enter this list!"
"Not a single one of the top 100 isn't a Level 2 Heavenly Master, and they are all very eye-catching disciples. Although it is difficult to enter the list, the rewards are also very generous. " When he spoke up to this point, Chen Wen became excited. His eyes emitted a glow of envy as he said, "Those who enter the rankings will be able to obtain more resources, such as medicinal pills, secret manuals, and even weapons. These things are extremely rare!"
"The Heavenly Arts are all Level 3, the medicinal pills are at least Level 2, and the weapons are Level 1. However, if your ranking is very high, it is very likely that you will be given a Level 2 weapon!"
Hearing this, Lu An's eyes narrowed. He did not care about Level 3 Heavenly Arts and Level 2 medicinal pills, but weapons were what he cared about the most.
Although he was only a Level 1 Alchemist, his alchemy skills could be considered as a beginner, and he could cultivate by himself. However, although he had read a few books on weapon crafting, he had never actually practiced it. However, the people on the list were all Level 2 Heavenly Masters, and he was currently unable to fight against a Level 2 Heavenly Master.
"If there is an Outer List, then there is an Inner List. The Inner List is specially made for the inner peak!" Chen Wen continued, "There are about 200 disciples in the inner peak, and only the top 20 are chosen. This is because the resources in the inner peak are already very good, and the top 20 are chosen to give the true geniuses the best treatment. "
Inner peak?
Lu An frowned. He took a light breath and shook his head slightly. That place was too far away from him, and he would not consider it for the time being.
Chen Wen was stunned. Suddenly, he remembered something and quickly said, "Oh right, I've read most of the books in the Sutra Depository. I know which ones are Level 2 Heavenly Arts. How about I take you there?"
Lu An was stunned. He thought about it and shook his head. "I've already picked three books. Let's talk about it after I'm done practicing."
Chen Wen was a little embarrassed. He scratched his head and stood there, not knowing what to say.
At this moment, Lu An had finished feeding the horse. He turned to face Chen Wen. Seeing the latter's conflicted expression, he took a light breath and said calmly, "Don't worry, I'm not angry at all."
Chen Wen was stunned. He immediately smiled happily and said, "It's good that you're not angry! Actually, I knew you were a good person when you gave me that half bear yesterday! "
Lu An smiled. He thought about it and asked, "There used to be farmland here, right?"
"Yes." Chen Wen was stunned. He did not know why Lu An suddenly asked this, but he immediately said, "It's just that no one has been farming for the past two years, so it's completely abandoned."
"It's okay." Lu An said, "Do you know where it is? Take me there. "
Chen Wen looked at Lu An in shock and asked, "You want to … grow vegetables?"
"Yes." Lu An smiled and said, "Growing vegetables is better than hunting. I don't have to worry about it every day, and I don't have to go out every night."
"You know how to grow vegetables?" Chen Wen asked in disbelief. "Even if you know how to grow vegetables, it's winter now!"
"There are vegetables that can be grown in winter." Lu An said. If he could not grow vegetables in winter, he would have starved to death.
Chen Wen's face gradually changed from shock to joy. He clapped his hands and said loudly, "Let's go! I'll take you there now! "

Three miles northeast of the straw hut was a flat ground at the foot of the mountain. In the middle of the flat ground was a large open space without any trees. The open space was covered with a thick layer of snow.
Lu An stood in front of the open space and frowned slightly. He looked around and found that the open space was ten acres in size. It was more than enough to feed forty people. Not to mention winter, even the food for the next year could be reserved for a lot.
With such a large open space, they had to rely on hunting to survive. Lu An sneered in his heart. These people were really lazy.
Lu An walked into the open space, bent down, and pushed the thick snow to the side. Soon he saw the ground. He touched it with his hand. The ground was very hard.
The ground had not been plowed for a long time. Not only that, the winter had frozen the ground like ice.
"Let's farm." Lu An got up and said to Chen Wen behind him, "Let's plant some that are easy to grow first, and then plant some others. At most a month, we won't have to go hunting anymore. "
Chen Wen was stunned. He looked at Lu An and asked, "Can you really grow vegetables in winter?"
"Every farmer can." Lu An looked at Chen Wen and said calmly, "Now we have to clear the snow here and then burn the ground. Do you understand?"
Chen Wen looked at Lu An. He did not know why, but he trusted this young man very much. A strong confidence suddenly rose in his heart. He said excitedly, "Okay, let's get to work!"
With that, Lu An and Chen Wen came to the two sides of the open space. They used their own strength to clear the snow away and then burned the ground with flames.
However, when the two used their flames, Chen Wen realized that something was wrong.
His flames could burn on the ground for a maximum of ten breaths before extinguishing. He needed to burn it repeatedly. However, Lu An was different. Lu An's flames could burn continuously on the ground. The soil that was as hard as stone melted under the flames in an instant. It was even burnt to a crisp!
Lu An also realized this very quickly. Therefore, he did not continue to release flames on the ground. Instead, he used his flames to quickly burn the ground and then retracted them.
Soon, the soil was completely burned by Lu An's powerful flames. Then, the two of them refurbished the soil. They worked from morning to afternoon before the soil was completely refurbished.
Lu An stood at the edge. He was panting after working for a day. However, he still smiled when he saw the rich results of a day's work.
In the past, it would take more than ten slaves two days to refurbish such a large piece of land. Indeed, everything was different after becoming a Celestial Master.
After taking a deep breath, Lu An gradually calmed down. With this place, his days in the Dacheng Sky Mountain would be much better.
