Insanely Pampered Wife: Divine Doctor Fifth Young Miss Novel - Chapter 427
Chapter 427: Finding the source
After leaving for a month, Sima You Yue returned to the clan. Seeing that she had returned, everyone’s anxious hearts finally calmed down.
“Sorry for worrying everyone.” Sima You Yue smiled apologetically
“It’s alright as long as you’re fine.” Sima You Lin said.
Everyone had a tacit understanding not to ask her where she went. They didn’t ask her why she disappeared either. They were merely happy that she had returned. However, they were quickly unhappy again because she said, “I will leave here in half a year. I will be going to the primordial lands.”
Once she left, it meant that they would probably not see her for many years.
Perhaps, forever.
Sima You Yue returned to her house after announcing her decision, leaving behind a group of people with their own individual thoughts.
She probably told them this because she wanted them to properly prepare their hearts for her departure. She was also telling those who wanted to follow her, that they had to properly cultivate because she would not wait for them. If they were unable to reach the Divine rank, she would not take them with her.
As a result, Sima You Qing and the others all cultivated energetically. Unexpectedly, they were able to successively advance to the Divine rank in half a year.
Of course, they used the time difference that was accorded by the spirit pagoda.
Within the time frame of this half a year, it was as if they were inside for fifteen years. With their talent, it was to be expected that they were able to advance to the divine rank.
For Sima You Yue, she did not cultivate much in this period of time. She let go of cultivating and, aside from the daily basic cultivation, she focused more on alchemy and arrays.
Arrays masters were divided into Beginner Array Masters, Intermediate Array Masters, Advanced Array Masters, Great Array Masters, Array Master Scholars, Emperor Array Masters and so on.
Sima You Yue calculated her own rank. She had already passed the rank of a Great Array Master and was a Array Master Scholar.
Furthermore, credit was due to the array book that Wu Lingyu had found for her.
Aside from this, her alchemy rank was already at the seventh rank. It was also a rank that she had just broken into.
After she had entered the sixth rank of alchemy, she realised that the later ranks were harder and harder to break into. It was no wonder that there were so many beginner and intermediate alechemy masters. There were much fewer advanced ranked alchemy masters.
One day, Little Spirit appeared in front of her and looked at her questioningly, “Didn’t you always want to know what was on the second level?”
Sima You Yue slapped her forehead. It was only then that she remembers she could already access the second level since she had reached the divine rank. However, because of this, she actually forgot.
“Go take a look.” Sima You Yue put down the array book in her hand. With a thought, she appeared on the first level of her spirit pagoda.
The previous time when she was here, she had been struck by lightning. However, thinking about it, when compared to the lightning that struck when she advanced to the divine rank. This lightning was merely a tickle.
Little Spirit floated on her, saying, “Go up and see.”
Sima You yue nodded, and she was rather nervous.
What would be waiting for her up on the second floor?
She walked up the stairs step by step. When she reached the bend that separated level one from level two, she stopped. At that time, she was blocked right here.
Looking at the undulating ripples, she took a breath, then stretched out a hand to touch it.
She passed it!
That barrier was no longer blocking her. It had actually disappeared.
She continued to go up. As the number of stairs decreased, her heart started to beat quicker.
As a result, she finally stepped on the last step.
However, she couldn’t see a thing. What met her was a stretch of darkness.
Her sharp attention immediately slackened. She asked questioningly, “Little Spirit, how come there’s nothing on the second level?”
“Who said that there’s nothing?” Little Spirit snapped his fingers and the darkness was immediately illuminated. Sima You Yue saw a stretch of mountains.
“Mountains? This has zero difference from the first level of mountains, okay?!” She saw mountains and valleys, and couldn’t tell the difference at all.
Little Spirit rolled his eyes, saying, “This is a mine. It’s not the same ordinary mountain range as below. How could it not have any difference?”
“Mine? What for? Open a mine to get Fatty to create tools?”
“This is a crystal mine! Didn’t you realise that the spiritual qi here is rather little but your spiritual strength has increased?” Little Spirited scolded her.
It was only now that Sima You Yue recalled that in the Primordial Lands, everyone’s cultivation depended on increasing their spiritual strength. However, there were other ways of increasing the speed of that too. For example, one could absorb the spiritual strength from crystals.
Looking at these mines, Sima You Yue didn’t know if she should laugh or cry.
The natural resources here were probably equal to those large traders. However, they were all underground, okay? Was she supposed to dig them up herself?
Furthermore, it wasn’t as if all these mines had crystals. She wasn’t a Seeker Spirit Master. How was she to find those crystals?
“If I want to explore these mines, I have to find a Seeker Spirit Master. Otherwise, I can become a Seeker Spirit Master.” She said helplessly, “It’s not realistic to get a Seeker Spirit Master to come here. Even if I found one, I wouldn’t be able to take that person here. In that case, I have to become a Seeker Spirit Master.”
A Seeker Spirit Master was the most favoured profession in the Primordial Lands. It was even a little higher than an array master. The reason was that they knew how to recognise the stones and could find the crystal stone veins. They would be able to find out if a mine had these rare crystals.
The previous time in the little world, Mo Sha was so excited to obtain that Devil Crystal. It was clear how previous crystals were.
As such, it was clear that a Seeker Spirit Master who could decipher crystals was incomparable.
“However, it’s easier said than done to become a Seeker Spirit Master.” She sighed, asking, “Little Spirit, were there any Seeker Spirit Masters amongst your previous owners?”
“Nope.” Little Spirit said, “However, I have a book here.”
Sima You Yue took the book that Little SPirit gave her. She looked at the words on it, crying out with surprise, “‘Finding the Source!’ It actually teaches you how to find the source! How did you get this book?”
She had heard of this book in her previous world. It was said that this was the highest ranked book for finding the soul’s secrets. It held many secret methods of differentiating the stones.
It was rumored that only previous spirit masters who had “Finding the Source’ would become the highest ranked, becoming Seeker Spirit Emperors!
However, this book had been lost a long time ago. Who would have thought that it actually was in Little Spirit’s hands.
“I’m not sure which Master obtained it last time.” Little Spirit said.
“Then why didn’t you have a Seeker Spirit Master?” Sima You Yue asked curiously
“Because he died before he had the chance to become one.” Little Spirit said.
Sima You Yue was stunned. That master was too pathetic. He had Little Spirit but actually kicked the bucket.
However, the fact that he left behind ‘Finding the Source, this kind of amazing thing, was a steal for her.
With this amazing thing, the chances of her finding her revenge upstairs was even higher!
As a result, for the rest of the time, most of her energy was placed on researching the crystal’s source. She ate up the foundational information found in ‘Finding the Source’, then went to the second level of the spirit pagoda to look for crystals. She put the theory into practice, increase her ability to look for these spirit sources.
Time flew by like this, and the half a year time limit gradually came…
