After getting used to the light, Yang Junshan was finally able to see that he was in a cave with the help of the dim light from the hole on top of his head.

The dense spiritual qi in the surroundings tightly surrounded his body. Yang Junshan felt as if countless awls were trying to pierce through his skin and bore into his body, making him feel unspeakably uncomfortable.

Reversing the < Wutu Spiritual Art > within his body, the Spiritual Energy within his body adhered to his skin, dispersing the surrounding Spiritual Qi. Yang Junshan immediately felt his entire body becoming more comfortable.

Yang Junshan picked up the broken pieces of soil on the ground and examined them, only to find that these pieces of dirt were only about as thick as a finger. No wonder when Tigress jumped down, the layers of earth beneath his feet were unable to withstand the weight of the man and the beast, and thus, Yang Junshan fell down with Tigress in his arms.

It was a natural cave with a circumference of about 30 feet and a height of about 10 feet. The walls of the cave were all made of stone, only the upper part of the cave was made of earth, and after being soaked in the spiritual qi for a long time, the soil of this cave had become as hard as a rock.

Yang Junshan picked up the broken pieces of soil that had fallen down from the hole above his head and checked them. He found that the spirit energy contained inside had reached the intermediate grade spirit field.

There was a clear spring water in the middle of the cave, the pool was about two feet wide, and the bottom of the pool was covered with a layer of round gravel. In the center of the cave was a clear spring, the pool was about two feet wide, and the bottom of the pool was covered with a layer of round rocks, and the bottom of the pool was covered with a layer of round rocks.

He extended his hand into the water. The cool spring water made his hand tingle slightly. One could see that the spirit energy contained in the spring water was still above the spirit well. After all, this was the source of the underground river.

Grabbing a handful of stones from the pool, Yang Junshan was surprised to find that these stones all had a trace of warmth on them, and a faint spiritual light flickered on their surface. They could easily cut these stones and use them as stone coins.

Looking at the full layer of pebbles in the pond, they were all cut into stone coins. Perhaps there were close to a thousand pebbles, but no one knew how long these pebbles had been soaked in the spirit spring for, or how much longer it would take for them to grow into spirit jade that could cut jade coins.

Other than this spring water, the entire floor of the cave was made of hard stone. Although it was not smooth, it was enough for Yang Junshan who wholeheartedly cultivated the Monarch's Map, not to mention the endless source of Lingqi in the cave. It was not only a hidden place for tempering his body, but also a great place for seclusion.

However, the most important thing was to hide the hole he fell into. Although few people came to the mountain side where the pomegranate forest was, it was still a precaution. If someone found this cave, Yang Junshan reckoned that it would attract all the martial artists in the town to fight for it.

If he wanted to hide the entrance of the cave, he would first need to cut off the leakage of the spirit energy from the cave. Compared to other woods, the pomegranate forest outside the cave was already beginning to stand out, and if he were to release the spirit energy from the cave, it would take more than a year or so.

After thinking for a moment, Yang Junshan fished out a handful of spiritual energy rich pebbles from the bottom of the pond, and then carefully collected the soil that fell from the cave entrance with a cloth bag. After carefully collecting the soil that fell from the cave entrance, he dug out a few holes in the cave wall for climbing.

He walked over and slapped the Tigress on the head. Ignoring the fact that her cultivation had been interrupted, he grabbed her shoulder and pulled her out of the hole.

Yang Junshan's small bag couldn't hold all the soil, so he pushed all the soil back into the hole with a few thick branches. The soil was blocked by some leaves, then covered with a layer of soil that was dug out, and then spread dried branches and leaves to make the soil look the same as the ground, so that even if people stepped on it, they wouldn't collapse.

Although this wouldn't stop the release of the spiritual energy from the cave, ordinary people at least wouldn't be able to discover that there was a cave below if they weren't careful.

After hurriedly returning home, Yang Tian was still not home. These days, as long as he didn't need Yang Tian to guard the spirit farmland which was about to mature, there was a high chance that Yang Tian wasn't home. Although the villagers all said that Yang Village was addicted to stone gambling, Yang Junshan knew that his father had returned to Chenyu County several times.

He couldn't have told the family about the Rust Ore, right?

Yang Junshan couldn't help but frown, but in the end, he didn't plan to stop his father. After all, wanting to secretly collect the Rust Stone by himself was too slow, and using the family's power to help him, after all, was much wider. Yang Junshan couldn't help but frown, but in the end, he didn't plan to stop his father.

In the front yard, Su Bao Zhang was currently practicing Mang Ox Fist with Yang Junping, Yang Qian Hai and Yang Bao Liang. Since the last time when Yang Junshan lost his temper, Yang Jun and the others became much more obedient. Later on, Su Bao Zhang also realized the importance of tempering their bodies, so Yang Junshan asked Su Bao Zhang to help them cultivate together.

Yang Junshan greeted Su Bao Zhang in a hurry and went to his father's room to rummage through. Finally, he found a less than two feet large rune stone board from under a box.

This stone tablet was the same size as the Spirit Sealing Well in the backyard. Originally, Yang Tian had used it as a backup; he only needed to embed it with a spirit source to activate the spirit sealing array glyphs engraved on the stone tablet, preventing the leakage of spirit energy.

When it was dark, Yang Junshan took the rune stone board and quietly went up to the west mountain. The tigress seemed to have been waiting for Yang Junshan the whole time, and silently followed him when he went out.

He then placed the stone tablet at the bottom of the pit, and the dozen or so pieces of Spirit Stones he fished out of the pool were embedded in the stone tablet. The Rune Circle on the tablet was instantly activated, and the Spiritual Qi emitted from the cave was immediately isolated, moreover, this stone rune was also able to isolate sound. Even if Yang Junshan was shouting out loud in the cave about the Mountain Lord's Map, it would not be heard by anyone outside the cave.

Then, he tied up the cover of the cave entrance with rope so that when entering and exiting the cave, it only needed a wooden row. Furthermore, after putting down the wooden row, it was exactly the same as the surrounding ground, so he didn't have to worry about anyone noticing anything.

After covering the entrance of the cave, Yang Junshan started to cultivate inside the cave. Yang Junshan also started to cultivate the map of the tiger inside the cave.

Although there was only one inheritance diagram of the Tiger's Dweller Painting, the inherited memories had a set of movements. There were a total of eight postures, and each of the eight postures allowed for a smooth transformation, allowing one to train every part of one's body in these eight postures.

Every time Yang Junshan's body assumed a certain posture, he would circulate the [Wutu Spiritual Arts] through his body once through, and the eight positions would be completed. The Spiritual Arts had already been in his body for eight cycles, and it just so happened that a night had passed.

Perhaps it was because of the Mountain Monarch's Map, but during this night, while Yang Junshan was cultivating, the pain caused by the spiritual energy washing through his meridians was greatly reduced. In addition to the dense spiritual energy in the cave, Yang Junshan's cultivation efficiency was also greatly improved.

Yang Junshan brought the tiger-girl out of the cave, covered up the Spirit Sealing Tablet, and restored the disguise at the entrance. He took a deep breath of the cool air in the mountain and immediately felt refreshed.

Yang Junshan turned around and looked at the pomegranate tree behind him. Perhaps it was affected by the nourishment of the spirit energy released from the cave yesterday, or the flow of the spirit energy from Yang Junshan's entrance and exit, but he also felt that the leaves of this pomegranate tree seemed green and glistening, and the surface of the pomegranate fruits hanging on them also seemed a lot smoother.

At this rate, even though the Spirit Sealing Slate was isolating the spiritual energy, as long as Yang Junshan frequently went in and out of the cave, the pomegranate forest would slowly be nourished, and the soil would gradually transform into the spirit field. The pomegranate tree near the cave entrance might even develop spirit essence.

Coming down the mountain, Yang Junshan discovered that the villagers guarding the three acres of spirit farmland had become more and more diligent. Even when Su Bao Zhang was cultivating, he would often come here and every time he saw that a small piece of this spirit farmland belonged to him, Su Bao Zhang would immediately go back to his house full of energy to practice Mighty Ox Fist, and practice the? Earth Shrouding Technique? that Yang Tian had just taught him.

According to Su Bao Zhang, the nearby villages all frequently went to the foot of the Western Hill to look at the three acres of spirit farmland that was about to mature. The soil of Mengyu County was barren, and the cultivation of spirit farmland was much more difficult than other places.

Back in the day, when Yang Tian had just started cultivating the Spirit Farm, not only were the villagers of the Tuqiu Village skeptical, even the other villages in the town scoffed at him when they heard about it. Many of them made sarcastic remarks in the ears of the villagers, and many Martial Disciples were waiting to see Yang Tian Gang as a foreigner.

However, as the amount of spiritual energy accumulated within these three acres of land increased and was about to mature into three acres of spirit land, the villagers of the Tuqiu Village, upon seeing the other villagers, began to boast proudly about the three acres of spirit land that had been bred in the village. Every time they heard sour words from the other villagers and saw the envy on their faces, it was finally their turn to exclaim in admiration.

However, after the news had spread, more and more people from all four directions came to the Tuqiu Village to take a look at the three acres of spirit farmland, causing the entire village to be on guard, afraid that someone would destroy the spirit farmland that was about to mature. Especially the nearby village, Tu Shi Village, and Tu Qiu Village; because of this, there were often conflicts between two villages due to irrigation water sources and the boundary of the spirit farmland.
