Around him, wisps of white-colored Qi that looked much like mist appeared.
All these Qi were absorbed into Zhou Ye’s body without any spillage.
After the Qi entered his body, Zhou Ye realized.
He didn’t have to refine them.
His cheat solved everything for him.
His all-purpose points didn’t increase. Instead, his dantian started filling up first.
Zhou Ye thought for a moment and understood what was happening.
The energy he absorbed would only turn into all-purpose points after his dantian was full.
When it wasn’t filled up, the energy would turn into pure Xuan Qi and enter his dantian.
“How user-friendly.” Zhou Ye nodded his head silently.
This cheat was very thoughtful. He would love it till the end of the world.
…
At noon, the sun was scorching.
Zhou Ye ended his cultivation and was staring at his attributes attentively.
Now, he had other thoughts. His fingers were a little itchy.

He noticed the option to upgrade the lucky draw again.
He understood what a lucky draw was.
In his past life, as a youngster, he always played games. In ten games, nine of them had a lucky draw system.
Zhou Ye lost quite a lot of money because of this system.
The cause of all those hard-earned money being tossed into the depths of the lucky draw system was because of two words being constantly in his mind — what if.
This time, it was no exception.
Zhou Ye wondered what would happen if he was able to draw something that was useful to him.
The moment this thought appeared in his mind, he couldn’t get rid of it.
“Grunt!”
The white deer walked out of the yard slowly.
The moment Zhou Ye saw it, he quickly dismissed the thought of attempting the lucky draw.
“This white deer and the man with the big face are both powerful individuals. If I want to use the lucky draw option, I have to do it without them knowing,” Zhou Ye thought to himself.
From the looks of it, he had to bear with the thought temporarily.
The white deer glanced at Zhou Ye once and ignored him.
It wasn’t in a good mood now. Something unhappy happened to it just now.
It got reprimanded by the man with the big face the entire afternoon.
The white deer walked to the side of the cliff and looked over at the horizon, seemingly in deep thought.
After some time, the white deer turned and walked towards the old tree.
It then laid directly beside Zhou Ye.
And stared at him intently.
Zhou Ye felt uncomfortable by its stare.
It was a pity that Zhou Ye couldn’t speak. Otherwise, he really wanted to open his mouth and ask the white deer.
What on earth is wrong with you today?
The white deer’s cultivation must be very high. Zhou Ye guessed that it was definitely able to speak.
He didn’t know if the white deer didn’t want to speak to him or felt that he wouldn’t understand anyway.
Alas, his cultivation was still too low to comprehend the actions of powerful individuals.
Thus, without knowing what to do, he ignored the white deer and started cultivating seriously.
The speed was slow but it was better than wasting time.
The white deer watched him intently at the side.
In spring, the sunlight was very warm. Under the old tree, the white deer closed its eyes and slowed down its breath.
After some time, it started sleeping soundly.
As it breathed in and out, large amounts of heaven and earth Qi got sucked into its mouth and nose.
Zhou Ye could feel the suction force. If his roots weren’t embedded into the ground, he might already be sucked into the white deer’s mouth.
Looking at the wild plants swaying gently in the wind, Zhou Ye sighed in frustration.
This white deer must be targeting him purposely.
If not, why was he the only plant that felt this strong suction force?
This wasn’t the only thing that was bothering Zhou Ye.
He also realized that he wasn’t able to absorb any Qi of heaven and earth.
All of it was sucked by the white deer. It didn’t give him any opportunity to cultivate at all.
This was outrageous.
Decisively, he activated the Xuan Qi in his dantian and covered his entire body with it. Then, he plucked out his roots that were buried in the soil.
He took a difficult step forward against the gale-like suction force.
The white deer was still frightening, even if it was just breathing.
If he wanted to cultivate, he must move away from the white deer.
The Xuan Qi in his dantian was depleting very quickly. Zhou Ye felt helpless.
He took another two steps away and the force lightened a little. Now, Zhou Ye was able to walk faster.
Half of his Xuan Qi had been depleted. Zhou Ye was finally out of the white deer’s suction range. His entire body felt light.
He turned and looked at the white deer that was sleeping soundly. Zhou Ye started digging a hole and buried his roots in his new home.
He then started cultivating.
In the yard.
The man with the big face smiled when he saw this scene.
“That wild plant is quite smart. This is interesting. It’s able to transform into a spirit herb within a few days… Maybe it will be able to advance again in the future?”
The man with the big face was curious. How far was Zhou Ye able to go?
As for the white deer, the man with the big face felt speechless.
It was like a naughty child. He wasn’t able to reel it in.
…
In the afternoon, the sunlight continued shining brightly.
The white deer woke up and shook its head drowsily.
It felt a little awkward when it looked at Zhou Ye who was cultivating far away.
The white deer moved closer to Zhou Ye slowly and then it took a deep breath.
How fragrant.
Zhou Ye woke up in shock. It looked at the satisfied white deer and felt confused.
What was it planning to do?
The white deer lowered its head and took another deep breath. Then, it turned around happily and hopped away.
“What is wrong with that white deer?”
Zhou Ye shook his head as he looked at the happily departing white deer. After that little intervention, he continued cultivating.
Now, he was an ambitious wild plant. He wanted to soon change his form.
Once he reached the manifestation state, he could do whatever he wanted.
In the yard.
The white deer secretly inched towards the field where all the spirit herbs were planted.
Every step it took, it would turn back to look at its back, afraid that the man would notice it.
The man with the big face sat in the pavilion with an ancient book in his left hand. The pages of the book were clearly aged and yellowish. He was reading it attentively.
His right hand was placed on the stone table. He was knocking the table with his slender fingers rhythmically.
He suddenly felt the movement of the white deer behind him. In a panic, the man with the big face quickly turned around.
Their gazes met.
The white deer pulled the corners of its lips and gave an awkward smile.
“You have almost damaged all my spirit herbs.” The man with the big face glared at the white deer angrily.
Immediately after he said that, the man with the big face lifted one finger and green Xuan Qi immediately twirled around the tip of his finger. As soon as the Xuan Qi was released, the entire earth below them started shaking.
In the air, huge amounts of heaven and earth Qi was congregating, forming a funnel-shape in the air.
The Qi poured down and nourished the soil.
The ordinary soil turned into a piece of spirit field in an instant.
The man with the big face then waved his hand. Immediately, multiple seeds appeared above the spirit field.
“Land.”
At his command, thousands of seeds embedded themselves in the spirit field.
The man with the big face waved his hand again.
As his hand dropped, numerous sprouts appeared on the spirit field.
These sprouts looked like they were growing slowly but within a split second, they were half an inch tall.
The white deer was beside the spirit field. It looked at the sprouts that were growing quickly and jumped around happily.
Suddenly, the white deer remembered Zhou Ye who was still cultivating at the side of the cliff.
It ran out of the yard furiously and dashed towards Zhou Ye.
Zhou Ye ended his cultivation when he heard the rapid footsteps coming towards him.
Before he could react, he was picked up by the white deer. Then, the white deer flew back to the yard.
The man with the big face was stunned for a moment when he saw what the white deer did. After a second, he understood its intention.
“The Qi in the spirit field is too thick. It might not be able to handle it. It could at most stay for an hour,” the man with the big face reminded the white deer softly.
Zhou Ye was still in a daze when he heard this. He didn’t agree.
He believed that in front of his powerful cheat, no matter how strong the Qi was, he was able to handle it.
However, he didn’t understand why the white deer brought him here.
“Grunt!”
The white deer grunted at the man with the big face. Then, it lifted its hooves and dug a hole in the spirit field. After that, it placed Zhou Ye inside the hole.
It then used its hooves to kick the soil and buried Zhou Ye.
Its actions weren’t gentle at all.
However, Zhou Ye enjoyed it.
It was mainly because he could feel the extremely thick Qi of heaven and earth in the soil. At the realization of that, he was elated.
Based on his estimation, this spirit field would allow him to yield twice the result with half the effort.
Immediately, Zhou Ye placed his two leaves together and moved them up and down at the man with the big face.
He looked like he was cupping his fist and thanking the man.
At the sight of that, the man with the big face had a faint smile on his face. He nodded slightly.
Zhou Ye turned and looked at the white deer who was staring at him with anticipation.
He felt helpless.
He then waved his leaves at the white deer too.
“Grunt!”
The white deer jumped on the spot.
It was very satisfied. It lifted its hoof and touched Zhou Ye.
It seemed to be saying.
Don’t worry. I will protect you from now.
