Bei Feng walked over to a flowerbed, dug a hole and placed the date-sized White River Rice grain inside it. Then, he covered it up and poured some water over it.

He didn't know if this method of planting was going to work. But based on the appearance of the fruit, it appeared to be the kind that would grow in wet soil. Bei Feng could only doctor a dead horse as if it were still alive at this point. [1]

If he was successful, that would be a pleasant surprise and they could have a change of food. But if it did not grow, then it was something that could not be helped anyway.

Bei Feng was not a person who held high hopes towards his every venture. Because, the greater one's hopes were, the greater the disappointment one would feel upon encountering failure.

The cauldron in the yard was emitting waves of fragrant steam at this point, drifting into Bei Feng's nose. Although this medicine cauldron was great, it was ultimately incomplete. The lid was missing--which was something that made Bei Feng sigh in regret.

He could tell that the complete cauldron should have a much greater effect. The grade of the cauldron might even be raised an entire level with the lid on.

From his estimation, the probability of catching another cauldron like this should be close to zero. He didn't even know if the Myriad Worlds he fished in every time was one and the same world, or if it was a different world each time!

"Meep!"

The little fox crawled to the top of Bei Feng's head excitedly as it looked expectantly at the large cauldron with its tongue hanging out.

After being fished out of the well, the little fox had been unconscious for over 24 hours. When it had awoken, it'd only eaten half a fruit, which was barely enough to alleviate its hunger. However, that half a fruit was far from being able to satiate it. Smelling the delicious fragrance wafting out from the cauldron, it could not help but grab at Bei Feng's hair with excitement.

"Yet another foodie..."

Bei Feng sighed with resignation as he brought the little fox into his arms and ran his fingers through its smooth fur.

"Meep!"

The little fox closed its eyes and rolled over in comfort. This human's hands felt really warm and nice...

"Wah! What a cute little fox!!! Boss, can I touch it?!"

Mystic One walked over with the others and the moment she saw the little fox, her eyes lit up with an irresistible passion as she hurriedly skipped forward excitedly.

The corner of Bei Feng's mouth twitched once and he hurriedly stepped backwards while saying in a stern voice. "No! Apart from me, nobody can touch this little fellow!" Seeing the teary eyes of Mystic One, he quickly added in a gentle voice, "This fox is afraid of people, and does not like unfamiliar people touching it."

Mystic One was originally feeling extremely depressed but after hearing Bei Feng's words, she still managed to cheer up. "So that means that I can touch it if I can befriend it?"

Bei Feng cleared his throat, at a loss of what to say. In the end, not wanting to inflict another blow on the enthusiastic little girl, he still nodded his head uncertainly.

"Ignorance is bliss! Those who have the knowledge would fear not being able to escape, while those who are ignorant would be like an unruly crowd on a wild goose chase."

Bei Feng mumbled to himself. To anyone but himself, this little fox was nothing but a huge malignant star!

Under the embrace of the raging fire, the patterns around the cauldron seemed to have come to life as they danced about within the flames.

A good while passed, and the fire finally died down. The phenomenon around the cauldron also disappeared.

Bei Feng removed the crude wok lid and a thick fragrance immediately surged out of it. Picking up the kitchen knife, he started to cut the large piece of meat up.

The largest portion was over 40 jin heavy. That portion was naturally for himself. As for the rest, they were left for Bai Xiang and the rest.

The rate at which Bei Feng ate the meat seemed slow, but was actually extremely fast. Without much effort, the large piece of meat disappeared into Bei Feng's stomach.

'Ah, what a bliss it is to be able to eat well and to one's heart's content for every meal!' Bei Feng burped with a contented sigh.

In the past, if Bei Feng was given this much Variant Giant Salamander meat, he would not be able to finish it. Even if his digestion was fast enough, the moment the amount of energy became too much for his body to absorb, he would begin to feel extremely bloated.

But right now, Bei Feng's body was like a dried out desert which hasn't seen rain for years. Massive amounts of energy were needed for his cells to fill out and have his body repaired.

Bei Feng made a little 'house' for the little fox and placed it in his own room.

The next day, he awoke to find the little fox curled up sweetly beside him, drooling as it slept.

"Meep?"

Sensing the movements beside it, the little fox opened its eyes lazily. Seeing Bei Feng already dressed and on his way out, it quickly got up and leaped onto his shoulders.

Bei Feng smiled lightly, not minding the little fox following him. As they reached the woods on the mountain, Bei Feng abruptly increased his speed. He had clearly only taken a single step forward, but his body actually flashed 3-5 meters away!

Such a disjointed motion formed an image which seemed like a terrible illusion that was extremely unbearable for the little fox to follow. It wrapped its paws tightly around Bei Feng's neck, 'meeping' in fear all the way as if it was afraid that it might fall off if it relaxed its grip.

Without much effort, Bei Feng had arrived at the smooth rock on the side of the mountain, his heart full of expectations. What was going to happen now that his mastery of Minor Illumination Breathing Technique had reached Grand Completion?

Executing the technique perfectly, he took in a deep breath with his face pointing at the sky.

A ray of sun which was half orange and half purple shot down from the clouds. This sunray was in no way comparable to the golden-colored one he absorbed the day before at noon. It was only as big as a chicken egg, but it was filled with a sea of vitality!

The moment that sunray entered Bei Feng's body, they immediately split off, each one not interfering with the other.

Bei Feng casted his perception within his own body in a bid to find out where the purple ray had gone to.

In the past, the amount of purple ray he had absorbed was too little each time, and his mental power was not sufficiently strong to determine its goal.

But with his greatly improved mental powers, Bei Feng was finally able to track this purple ray!

The moment the purple ray entered his body, it flew straight towards his spine and split off into a purplish halo which spread from his spine to cover his entire skeleton!

Then, the purplish halo slowly sunk into his skeleton, disappearing from view.

Bei Feng retracted his perception as he watched the purplish halo disappear. "Looks like this purple ray has a strengthening effect on my bones. But because the amount is too small, the speed is a bit slow," he murmured.

Bei Feng basically did not feel any changes happening to him at all. This was unlike the tempering of the body where the effect was immediately apparent. But Bei Feng was not in a hurry at all. In any case, there was no harm in continuing to absorb the purple ray.

As for the orange ray swimming about within his body, Bei Feng did not bother about it at all. That amount of orange ray did not even cause a ripple in his body at this point. The moment it entered his body, it was immediately gobbled up by his starved and ravenous cells.

With a look, he saw that all three Mystics had also stepped past the Intermediate stage of Minor Illumination Breathing Technique. Their bodies were also improving gradually. But at this stage, if they wanted to surpass Bei Feng, it was still nothing but a pipe dream.

"A thousand days the country nurtures its soldiers, all for one day's battle. They've been freeloading for so long, so it's time for them to do something for me in return," Bei Feng stroked his chin and mumbled as he looked at the three.

Lunch came, and Bei Feng suddenly spoke up in the middle of the meal. "Mystic One, after lunch, I need you and the other two Mystics to help me with something."

"Ok!"

Mystic Two was the first to reply. Although staying here was pretty good and the food and training were great, he still really wanted to go out to catch some air.

Mystic Three also had a slight change in his expression, but he was much better than Mystic Two at containing it.

Bei Feng pulled out a piece of paper from his bag and passed it to the three. "Yesterday, someone swindled me out of over 3 million yuan. This is the place and time the money was spent. This mission is a bit difficult, but I believe that you three should be able to accomplish it. Once you find those swindlers, make them spit the money out for me!"

The likelihood of tracking down the unknown scammers was very low, but Bei Feng simply refused to resign himself to it just like that! The jeweler should logically have a few CCTVs in their shop, which should have captured the faces of the criminals. As for finding the bastards in a sea of people, that would depend on the methods of Mystic One and the rest.

"As for whether you want to kill those guys, you can decide that for yourself. But no matter what you do, make sure to do it cleanly! Mystic Three, you will be the leader of this mission!"

A dangerous, frosty light flashed through Bei feng's pupils as he added the last sentence.

"Understood!"

Mystic Two and Mystic Three nodded solemnly as they tried their best to hold in their laughter.

Bei Feng was never a saintly person. As for whoever dared to touch his precious money, he had even less compassion towards them!

"It's easy to take my money, but you must be alive to spend it!"

A murderous grin flickered across his face, sending endless chills down the backs of Mystic Two and Mystic Three.
