Yu Qingru, examining the array, finally broke into a smile:

"Fellow Daoist Fu, we found it!"

Hearing this, Fu Changsheng immediately rose from his meditation, taking a few quick steps forward. Yu Qingru smiled and said:

"If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Fu's reminder, one would never have realized that there is indeed a natural array here. This array is formed by the terrain of the earth an mountains over time, and it contains the power of the Five Elements. To break the array, the combined force of five types of spiritual power is needed."

"Thank you for your hard work, Miss Qingru!"

Over the past month,

Yu Qingru had become something of an array zealot,

almost never closing her eyes, wholly absorbed in studying the array.

Fu Changsheng couldn't be of much help, though he was very grateful in his heart.

Granny Yu watched the two's interaction with even more satisfaction.

With the addition of Xiaoqing and Autumn Cicada to the three of them,

they could gather five different types of spiritual power.

Following the positions indicated by Yu Qingru, they stood firm and cast techniques into the array below, with surging mana channeled into the array plate before them.

Kuili Mountain, which was originally barren, suddenly had a touch of greenery appear in sight.

It was as if unveiling a mysterious veil.

A ripple flashed by.

Soon after,

a lush bamboo forest came into view.

In the mountain,

a majestic wave of spiritual energy washed over them.

Beneath the tall Songlin Bamboos, a few Songling Rats occasionally scurried about, and on the ground lay a fertile patch of Three-Colored Soil:

"This is....."

Yu Qingru and her grandmother were astonished by the scene before them.

They never would have thought,

that such a place hid the wonders of the Qiankun.

Fu Changsheng laughed and said:

"This place was accidentally discovered by a Fu Family ancestor while training in the Eastern Wilderness, but after leaving, this ancestor could never find the true entrance again. Thanks to Miss Qingru's breaking of the array."

Seeing the Songling Rats darting around,

Granny Yu quickly patted her storage bag and set up a restriction array in the forest to prevent the Songling Rats from burrowing underground. The Songling Rats, who had practically never left Kuili Mountain since birth, found they couldn't access their old nests and were momentarily excited, crowding together with curiosity, appearing somewhat silly.

Without hesitation, Fu Changsheng pointed the Cloud Ring Purple Immortal Tower. A hum from the first layer of the tower followed, releasing a sucking force onto the bamboo forest below.

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

The Songling Rats, noticing they were being sucked off the ground,

finally began to panic,

let out strange, squeaky cries.

But it was too late.

One by one, the Songling Rats were absorbed remarkably fast into the tower. A rough count showed there were actually over three hundred of them, thirty of which had reached Tier One Late Stage in adulthood, while the remaining two-thirds were at Tier One Early-stage.

After collecting the Songling Rats into the tower,

Fu Changsheng and the other two worked together to dig up all the Songlin Bamboos in the area.

At this point,

Granny Yu noticed the Three-Colored Soil on the ground:

"Is this... the legendary Three-Colored Soil?"

Used for cultivating Spirit Field, it is top-quality fertilizer.

Fu Changsheng's goal was this very item.

However, the natural array was broken by Yu Qingru after months of effort, and he naturally couldn't take it all for himself: "Granny Yu, Miss Qingru, how about we split the Three-Colored Soil, Songlin Bamboo, and Songling Rats equally, just like we did with the Cloud Mushroom Fruit?"

The Cloud Mushroom Fruit was also discovered by Granny Yu.

Granny Yu didn't hesitate to shake her head and said:

"We have no use for these items. We originally came just to lend a hand. If Fellow Daoist Fu feels uneasy about it, a few Spirit Stones will suffice."

At this time,

Yu Qingru needed Spirit Stones to purchase Spirit Medicine to assist her Foundation Establishment. These Three-Colored Soil, Songling Rats, and Songlin Bamboo were items only beneficial in the long-term development of a clan.

The Yu Family of today was not what it once was.

Better to sell this favor to Fu Changsheng.

Fu Changsheng was a bit surprised, but since they didn't want these items, it was all the better for him. Of course, he wouldn't let them work in vain; after evaluating the current market value of these items, he waved his sleeve, sending a box floating toward Granny Yu:

"Granny Yu, these are the Spirit Stones I have on hand. If you find the amount insufficient, I'll supplement it after I return to my clan."

The box had no restrictions on it.

Granny Yu gave it a casual glance,

her pupils contracting.

Inside, neatly arranged, were thirty-two Middle-Grade Spirit Stones, which could almost be exchanged for nearly four thousand Spirit Stones in the Marketplace.

Granny Yu hadn't expected such generosity, and she quickly waved her hands, saying:

"Fellow Daoist Fu, you've given too much."

"Granny Yu, compared to your Cloud Mushroom Fruit, this is nothing."

In the battle at Taiyun Valley,

Granny Yu and Yu Qingru only took the Cloud Mushroom Fruit, refusing anything else.

This was a token of compensation, as he couldn't take all the benefits for himself.

Seeing Fu Changsheng's genuine expression, which wasn't feigned, Granny Yu felt even more satisfied with him. She also made up her mind that should her granddaughter's Foundation Establishment fail this time, she would go personally to the Fu Family to propose this marriage while she still had some energy left.

For a time,

the cooperation between the two sides was amicable.

As a woman herself, Yu Qingru was naturally more sensitive to Granny Yu's actions, so she somewhat sensed it, resulting in one or two more degrees of awkwardness in her interactions with Fu Changsheng during the return journey.

The return trip was relatively smooth.

Despite encountering a circle of balding eagles along the way,

they were soon slain by the joint effort of the three.

The return journey was slightly quicker than the initial travel, taking only two months.
