Chapter 186: Finally Settled

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After lunch, Huo Sheng and Velo left first. Huo Sheng needed to oversee the overall situation in the rear, while Velo, a level three Physique Realm expert of the Spirit Clan, temporarily acted as Huo Sheng’s bodyguard.

After sending the two of them off, Lu Ming did not take an afternoon nap. He just led Li Zitong towards the cave at the back.

He really needed Li Zitong to help him tidy up this former beast lair.

The former overlord of South Mountain—the exotic beast, had a ma.s.sive size.

This meant that the entrance of the cave was very large, nearly ten meters high.

As they walked into the cave, it became pitch dark. It was Lu Ming who took out a strange luminous stone that could glow and lit up Li Zitong’s vision.

This made Li Zitong click his tongue in wonder, “Brother Lu, this thing is quite impressive, it must be worth a lot, right?”

Cheng Cheng smiled and said, “What’s it worth? It’s just a common thing.”

In the supernatural world, anything that was not related to supernatural beings was just a toy and could not possibly be valuable.

The luminous stone in Lu Ming’s hand was such an item.

Holding the luminous stone, they walked deeper into the cave for about a hundred meters, and suddenly their field of vision opened up.

They saw a hidden paradise within the mountains!

After pa.s.sing through the only pa.s.sageway, they arrived at a large clearing of about ten acres.

The surrounding rock cliffs were embedded with naturally formed luminous stones.

There was also a dim sunlight streaming in through cracks in the upper rocky walls.

In the center of the clearing, there was a clear pool of water, and the water in the pool surged and bubbled, as if it were living water.

Li Zitong’s eyes suddenly lit up.

“Brother Lu, this place is not bad!”

It was indeed not bad—Lu Ming had not expected that there would be a hidden paradise inside the beast king’s lair.

Of course, this paradise was not particularly large.

However, its size was large enough for more than a hundred people to live comfortably.

Zhang Chengcheng seemed to want to praise Lu Ming’s judgment. She pointed at the pool in the middle and said, “This place is connected to a nearby stream, and the water quality is excellent, like a natural well.”

“We’ll save a lot of effort fetching water in the future.”

“There’s also an open area on the side of the mountain outside where the terrain is flat. Fala said that we can plant black rice and vegetables there.”

“Brother Lu’s idea is that this cave will be our future home, and we’re planning to build a small village inside the cave. Li Zitong, you’re a professional, so you should plan this place well and build some houses.”

Li Zitong nodded with a determined expression, “Leave it to me.”

He was not a professional house builder.

However, after playing around with earth-element superpowers for a long time, he had naturally become knowledgeable about such things.

First and foremost, was Lu Ming’s house—this was Li Zitong’s most important job.

However, this time, Lu Ming did not let Li Zitong do as he pleased.

He was actively involved in the process, helping Li Zitong design his future home.

“The area is about 120 square meters, with two floors above ground and one floor underground.”

“The layout of the first floor is…”

“The layout of the second floor is…”

“The layout of the bas.e.m.e.nt is…”

“The entrance to the bas.e.m.e.nt is in the bedroom on the first floor.”

“The house should have a small courtyard and an outdoor dining room…”

Lu Ming kept talking, and Li Zitong also listened attentively until Lu Ming finished speaking. Only then did Li Zitong realize, “Brother, isn’t this the layout of your house in Good Hope Village?”

Lu Ming smiled and nodded, “Exactly, that’s it!”

Lu Ming was not a particularly sentimental person.

But the old house from before was indeed a lingering attachment in his heart.

Li Zitong had no objections to Lu Ming’s requirements. Building the house the way Lu Ming wanted was not difficult.

On the other hand, Lu Ming’s words gave Li Zitong a good idea.

Looking at the Peach Blossom Paradise in the mountains, Li Zitong thought for a moment and asked, “Brother, do you think it’s feasible to make this place look like Guangping Street?”

Lu Ming clapped his hands and laughed, “That sounds great!”

Currently, Li Zitong had already reached the Ninth-level of the Mortal Realm. The strength of his Earth-element superpower had also reached a higher level. With Ninth-level Earth-element superpower, building houses was incredibly quick and efficient!

After finalizing the plan, Li Zitong immediately got to work. In just three hours, the entire cave abode in the mountain had been completely transformed!

The luminous stones on the rock walls and the sunlight s.h.i.+ning through the cracks made the entire cave abode bright and clear.

Inside the residence, Lu Ming’s house was located by the poolside. Both its exterior and interior were identical to Lu Ming’s former home!

Outside Lu Ming’s house, the road created by his Earth-Element superpower connected in all directions. The familiar houses and shops made Lu Ming feel like he had returned to Guangping Street.

Lu Ming was becoming more and more satisfied as he looked around!

Entering his own home, it was quite empty inside, except for a stone bed where Lu Ming could rest.

Li Zitong, who was by his side, said, “We’ll settle the furniture when Brother

Xin comes! For now, Brother Lu, just make do with this.”

Zhang Lixin’s material manipulation ability made him an excellent furniture maker.

Lu Ming nodded in understanding, “It’s already sufficient.”

That night, Lu Ming slept well.

The next day, which was the 143rd day of the Black Mist Calendar, he woke up early and began to train.

In this way, Lu Ming regained a stable and peaceful life within the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

On the 145th day of the Black Mist Calendar, Huo Sheng arrived with his men. w.a.n.g Xiong, Zhang Lixin, Meng Jie, and the others were among them.

On that day, Zhang Lixin began to cut down trees to make furniture. By evening, the interior of Lu Ming’s house had already become 80% similar to the old house.

w.a.n.g Xiong also took over the responsibility from Lu Ming to oversee the overall renovation.

Everything was being done to create an environment for Brother Lu to farm his attributes without distractions or interruptions.

On the 146th day of the Black Mist Calendar, the farmland was cultivated and planted with black rice and vegetables. w.a.n.g Xiong led the way for hunting expeditions.

On the same evening, Huo Sheng led the large group of Nanxiang people into the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and their journey was relatively uneventful.

This also meant that the relocation of the Nanxiang people was successfully completed, and from this day forward, the Nanxiang people would have to make a living within the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

Lu Ming did not have much of an opinion about this.

Having food and a place to stay while leveling up was sufficient for him!

But, some people had different ideas about this matter, and significant ones at that!

On the 147th day of the Black Mist Calendar.

Apelo followed the Third Legion of Giants to the vicinity of Bear Mountain.

The campsite was filled with banners and a sea of people.

Giant individuals, each four or five meters tall, were eating meat and drinking, having a grand time!

On this trip, the objective of the Third Legion was the old site of the Undead Clan Chaoshan Sect in the distance.

That place had already become a battlefield between the Insect Clan and the Undead Clan.

The goal of the Giant Clan was simple and crude—to partic.i.p.ate in the battle and obtain more bioma.s.s in exchange for more qualifications to ascend to the heavens from the Mother Tree.

Apeio’s goal was different from the Third Legion.

In the central tent, Apelo met the commander of the Third Legion.

“Brother, I want to bring people out. The goal is…”

Before Apelo could even say the fabricated lie he had prepared, the commander of the Third Legion waved his hand.

“Go ahead, go ahead. Brother Apelo, When you’re with me, feel free to do as you please, don’t be restrained here!”

Apelo was Hao Lie’s sworn brother. Although Hao Lie did not take Apelo seriously, as an outsider, wouldn’t it be a slap to Hao Lie’s face if he did not take Apelo seriously?

Apelo was at the First Level of the Spirit Realm and was not considered an outstanding expert among the Spirit Realm individuals in the army.

Since that was the case, he might as well go ahead and do as he pleased…

Apelo instantly understood this logic and, after thanking the commander repeatedly, left the military camp with his people, heading towards the direction of Bear Mountain..
