Under the moonlight, the earth and rocks beside the path were still rustling and falling.

Chen Xu's wide sleeves fluttered like a nimble crane as he gracefully retreated backward along the mountain path, moving further and further.

And with each retreat, a miracle seemed to unfold.

One could see the fallen earth and rocks disappear into thin air, quickly being piled on the other side of the narrow mountain path, continually raising and widening it.

With the expansion of the mountain wall on the left side, this originally narrow and dangerous mountain path gradually acquired a smooth and broad foundation.

Wei Yuan sat on Chen Xu's shoulder, utterly amazed: "Brother Chen, you actually built a road for the villagers. You thought of it and acted on it—this, this… such a spirit and action, I…I am truly…"

It couldn't express its exact feelings, only knowing that it was deeply shocked.

Moreover, an indescribable excitement filled its chest, different from any previous touch.

Wei Yuan felt that its entire demonic life seemed to be baptized and sublimated at this moment.

It widened its eyes, earnestly memorizing the scenes before it.

The little hedgehog thought, no matter to what level it could cultivate in this life, it probably would never forget everything that happened in this moonlit moment, in this mountain.

It had thousands of words but at this moment found its tongue clumsy.

Wei Yuan was unaware that the Tray Ghost whose speech it had interrupted was also screaming continuously in its heart, blaming its slow mouth for not being as quick-witted as the hedgehog.

Wei Yuan hated its own clumsy mouth while the Tray Ghost resented its eloquence for stealing its words.

There Wei Yuan finally stuttered, unable to fully express the subsequent thoughts.

Meanwhile, the Tray Ghost finally sorted out its tongue, shouting: "Honored one! Honored one, how can there be anyone in the world like you, so compassionate to the common people!

Boohoo…Honored one, even though the little ghost has lived a hundred years of a ghostly existence, this is the first time I see a cultivator willing to lower themselves to use magic to build a road.

Your spirit is truly unprecedented in my life, your brilliance almost rivaling the moonlight at present!

No, though the light of the sun and moon may illuminate the mortal world, how could it ever compare to you, shining upon this remote village?

Boohoo…In those days when I was alive, if there had been an immortal willing to build the village road…I, I would have dedicated everything day and night, establishing a living shrine for you.

Praying in life, following in death, boohoo…"

It cried and shouted, truly executing its flattering skills to the utmost between life and death.

Although its words were purely compliments, some were so exaggerated that even Chen Xu couldn't endure them, yet the little hedgehog, hearing the Tray Ghost's words, seriously nodded in agreement.

Just as Chen Xu, finding it both amusing and exasperating, was about to scold the Tray Ghost to silence it, he heard Wei Yuan earnestly say: "Indeed.

Brother Chen, I am a mountain demon, having seen countless remote villages.

I am most aware that the poverty of many mountain villages is often due to difficult paths.

But although I have followed the teacher and read the saints' books for a long time, I never thought of helping the mortal people by building roads.

The teacher said, when powerful, help the world; when poor, care for oneself.

I, as a little demon, with weak mana, never thought of helping the world.

I thought that being able to care for myself would be enough to honor the teacher's teachings.

Now it seems, actually, I was too narrow-minded.

Though I am a little demon, though unable to help the world, yet if I see the stones before me, reaching out to move them, how could it not be considered a kindness?

Not letting small good deeds remain undone, this is what a scholar should do."

After speaking, Wei Yuan suddenly leaped down from Chen Xu's shoulder.

Then it landed among the flying earth and rocks, its small hands swiftly forming seals, casting magic.

"Earth stones, level!"

The little hedgehog shouted crisply, and a slight earthy yellow light appeared under its feet.

Then the light began to extend evenly along the path, front and back.

Where the faint light passed, the road, already flattened by Chen Xu's earth-pushing skill, suddenly became even more solid.

In a vague sense, this solid road seemed to have a stone-like hard shine under the moonlight.

It turned out Wei Yuan was indeed adept at earth magic, its earth escape technique was miraculous, and solidifying the mountain path now was no problem.

Although its mana was still shallow, because of precise control, it actually showed some lasting power.

Moreover, the more it cast, the more Wei Yuan discovered its skill in applying magic seemed to have suddenly become more adept.

In this moment's environment, invisibly, it could use less mana to accomplish more.

Wei Yuan's eyes glowed brightly, growing stronger as it continued casting.

It took steps, leaping forward along the mountain path, solidifying segment after segment of mountain road beneath its feet.

Little Mouse Ah Shi squatted in Chen Xu's sleeve, watching this scene, gradually becoming a bit awestruck.

It wasn't like Wei Yuan, able to deeply understand the significance of road construction.

But upon seeing Wei Yuan running down to help Chen Xu, while it remained in Chen Xu's sleeve doing nothing—

How could Ah Shi continue to squat there?

Even though it felt its body was still somewhat weak, it couldn't hold back anymore.

Hurriedly, it crawled out from Chen Xu's sleeve, first running swiftly to Chen Xu's neck side, then folded its mouse paws, quickly chanting spells:

"Heaven, clear; Earth, serene; Wind, gentle; Rain, drizzling…"

The little mouse's spell was quite interesting.

The most interesting was, as it completed the spell, a tiny gentle breeze suddenly blew by.

The breeze carried a tender mist, the mist clear and refreshing, blowing to Chen Xu's face, immediately giving him a distinct sensation of coolness.

Frankly speaking, since it was the little mouse casting the magic.

If it had been anyone else, human or demon, Chen Xu certainly wouldn't let this small drizzle mist hit his face.

Yet at this moment, washed by the mist on his face, Chen Xu suddenly felt the speed of his True Qi circulating in the Dantian increase slightly.

A remarkable refreshing sensation accompanied the rain mist, making Chen Xu feel alert and exceedingly comfortable.

Truly amazing.

Though the little mouse had low mana, this "Clear Rain Spell" was surprisingly effective.

In intense battles, this spell could evidently help cultivators rejuvenate and maintain energy.

This enhancement differs from Chen Xu directly increasing the tri-attribute.
