摘要

After transmigration, Lin Yue could hear a voice whispering in his ear every day, sharing all sorts of secrets with him. Small matters like the thoughts of the girl next door, to great mysteries like the secrets of the heavens, the voice persisted daily, broadcasting randomly. He originally wanted to live an unremarkable life, but in this world of Xianxia dynasties where mortals are considered as insignificant as weeds, the fate of an ordinary man without power is no longer in his own hands. Thus, he had no choice but to stop being 'just a person'. 'Your Majesty the Empress, you wouldn't want your secret of treason to be revealed by others, right?'

Chapter 11. Secret

Qingdu bordered the northwestern Heroic Pass of Great Yong, being the metropolis of Liangzhou, naturally advantageous from ancient times. Although not as prosperous as the fertile lands of the Central Plains, it was far from the desolate wasteland imagined by the people of Central Plains.

In the fifteenth year of Qingyuan, autumn.

After a night of torrential rain had passed, the sand and dust of Qingdu were washed away, along with the last traces of heat.

The streets of Qingque Road, usually enveloped in dust, rarely revealed their true appearance. The bluestone slabs, polished by the years, as if dipped in indigo, were perfectly reflected by the clear sky, embodying the essence of Qingdu.

Coincidentally, today was the Mid-Autumn Festival, adding a celebratory meaning to the autumn rain that rejuvenated the land.

"Almost forgot, this world celebrates the Mid-Autumn Festival too..."

Lin Yue, sitting back in a lounge chair in his courtyard, gazed up at the flourishing golden elm in the yard, his eyes filled with nostalgic melancholy.

In his previous life, there was also a golden elm planted in front of his house.

Sadly, the tree was no longer the same, nor was the world.

Being a stranger in a foreign land, each festive occasion doubles the longing for family.

In the highly connected society of his previous life, he hadn't felt much for this phrase until now, when he realized he could never return to his hometown.

"It's been a year already..."

He calculated the time.

Lin Yue had been in this world for nearly a year now.

Despite the flaws of the world he lived in before, it was a million times better than this boring, ancient feudal society with a weak sense of human rights.

The only consolation was—

This wasn't merely an ancient world; it also had real Cultivators.

That was quite fascinating.

However, the existence of Cultivators also made the class structure of this world more rigid and cruel.

And he had transmigrated into a Mortal without any cultivation talents.

That was quite helpless.

"Good thing I have a cheat..."

Lin Yue murmured lazily, leaning back in his chair, "Just wait a bit longer, maybe I'll find a secret method to change my talents later."

Just then—

"Knock knock knock."

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Then, a gentle girl's voice came from outside: "Brother Yue, are you home?"

"Xiaotong? Wait a moment, I'll open the door." Lin Yue immediately stood up and walked towards the gate.

She was obviously the younger daughter of the neighboring Wang Family, and among the few households in this alley, she was relatively familiar.

"Ah...no need, Brother Yue, don't open the door."

The girl outside seemed a bit nervous: "I just came to deliver a box of mooncakes to you, I'll talk through the door and then leave, you open it later, otherwise... Sister Ziqiu might misunderstand..."

Lin Yue was dumbstruck.

He then realized that to others, he still had a 'wife' who hadn't been brought over from her family yet.

It certainly wasn't appropriate to meet privately with other women.

Besides, he knew this girl harbored a slight infatuation for him...

It seemed she felt more 'guilty as a thief'.

"Alright." Lin Yue stopped at the door and asked through it, "Xiaotong, did you say mooncakes?"

"Yes, my mother just made them, please don't refuse."

After she had finished, the girl outside seemed to hesitate for a moment, then asked, "Brother Yue, how is Sister Ziqiu's illness? I haven't seen her for a long time."

"It's the same, she can only lie in bed and seldom wakes up," Lin Yue sighed.

There was a pause outside, followed by a soft sigh.

"Brother Yue, your relationship with Sister Ziqiu is really good, taking care of her even during such times, I envy her... Ah, I mean..."

The girl seemed to realize her slip, and her voice became slightly flustered.

"I, I should go now... Happy Mid-Autumn Festival."

Silently for a moment, then the girl's hurried footsteps gradually faded away.

Lin Yue opened the courtyard gate, and there was a bamboo woven food container at the door.

He glanced down the alley corner, chuckling to himself.

He then picked up the food container, went back into the courtyard, and sat down at the stone table under the tree.

Upon opening the food container, Lin Yue muttered, "Just as I thought, not a Guangdong Mooncake, and why does it look like a bagel... I wanted one with lotus seed paste and egg yolk..."

He tore a piece of the bread and tasted it; fresh from the oven, it had a unique flavor.

Today was indeed Mid-Autumn Festival.

Then—

"Mm..."

Suddenly, a weak groan came from behind him in the house.

"She's awake already?" Lin Yue turned his head and a smile curved his lips.

He immediately stood up, lifted the sand-preventing curtain from the doorway, and entered the house.

A thick scent of medicine permeated throughout the room.

The source of the scent was the young woman lying on the bed.

She lay weakly, her complexion sickly pale, her features marked by weariness. Though somewhat thin and not looking well, one could tell that she was once a beautiful woman.

Now, she still qualified as a sick beauty.

"You've only been asleep for eight hours, and you've been waking up more frequently; seems like you're developing a resistance to the medication."

Lin Yue smiled at her, sitting down by the bed.

He then lifted the blanket, and through the thin garment, he started delicately checking her skeletal joints all over her frail body.

Throughout the process, although the frail young woman did not resist, or perhaps couldn't, she kept glaring at him with hateful eyes.

The hatred in her gaze was as if she wished to devour his flesh and drink his blood.

"Don't look at me like that; I find it quite revolting too,"

Lin Yue spoke to himself while patiently pressing on various bone joints, "but we must check you to prevent any secret recovery."

Reborn as a Mountain: I Defy the Heavens with a Smile

When a mountain comes to life, awakening its consciousness, it takes on another form—a Mountain Spirit. And that’s me reborn with extraordinary Divine powers. Want to know what these divine powers are? Well, one of them allows me to accelerate herb growth—up to one hundred times faster! Impressive, right? But wait, there’s more! I also possess a ‘golden finger’—which is ‘Space-Time’ system that lets me fish for lost techniques, weapons, pill formulas, and other treasures from the rivers of time and space. With these at my disposal, I’m sure to become stronger, at least stronger than the beautiful sect master who claims my mountain as her personal retreat and constantly drag me into her matters. It’s not an easy life, but no need to worry! I’m not just any spirit—I’m a human spirit born from a mountain, which means I have an extraordinary talent for cultivation. To top it off, my system was generous enough to grant me a divine cultivation technique right from the start. There’s just one tiny problem: it’s a dual cultivation technique, and I need a partner to cultivate it. So, I had no choice but to convince the sect master’s stunning disciple to help me out. I mean, it’s not like I’m after her gorgeous long legs, her curvaceous thighs, or her… well, you get the point. I’m just a humble cultivator trying to grow stronger by any means necessary. If only she’d run into some trouble, so I could swoop in and save the day. That would make things a lot easier for me… but alas, life is never that simple. Still, I’ll find a way. With my Space-Time system, my mountain’s power, and a little charm, I’ll outgrow this mountain and surpass everyone—even the sect master. And maybe, just maybe, I’ll enjoy the beauties along the way. *** No NTR, No Yuri, No Yaoi *** LinkTree- https://linktr.ee/Around_The_Moon Discord- https://discord.gg/zTgR9VFduX

A Farmer's Journey To Immortality

"Battling young masters for some treasures in mysterious caves? No, thank you. What's so special about a ring containing an old sage's trapped soul? I'll just toss it away. Becoming a direct disciple of some big expert with many enemies? Count me out. I'll flip the bird to the pointless struggle in prestigious sects that only attract calamity. What I have here, this opportunity I've seized, is plenty for me. I'll choose safe and steady methods of progress, even if they're slow. After all, I'm just a simple farmer seeking peace through cultivation. I'll rely on myself to pave the way." - Aksai Everwood (Chapter 7) ============ Meet Aksai Everwood, a guy who thought he was done with life, but life had other plans. Aksai wasn't always Aksai. He used to be Arman Arlott, a terminally ill dude who decided to take one last wild ride before checking out. Little did he know, a crazy experiment would flip his world upside down. Arman's mind got tangled up with artificial intelligence, and things got seriously weird. Instead of peacefully bowing out, Arman ended up sacrificing himself for some mind-blowing breakthrough. But instead of eternal rest, he got a second chance as Aksai Everwood, a spirit farmer in a new world. Talk about a cosmic curveball! You'd think being a farmer in a serene, pastoral paradise would be easy, right? Nope. Aksai's new world is anything but peaceful. Farming is far from sunshine and rainbows here. Aksai dreams of a chill life cultivating his crops, but in the wild world of immortal cultivation, peace is a rare commodity. Luckily, Aksai's got some serious advantages. He's got a neural link fabric that makes him a whiz at alchemy and array formations, giving him a leg up on other Spirit cultivators. Plus, he has the Enchanted Everwood Farm, a magical place where he can grow all sorts of mysterious cultivation resources with awesome bonuses. This farm comes with perks that make Aksai a one-of-a-kind Spirit farmer. And here's the kicker: the farm is suspended in a spatial junction of all existing realities. That means Aksai can hop between different worlds as he levels up in his Spirit cultivation. With these unique advantages, Aksai ditches the traditional path of joining a sect or a renowned clan. Instead, he explores various worlds, using their unique resources and methods to forge his own path as a Spirit cultivator. What do myriad worlds unlock? A druid bloodline, body cultivation, martial arts, and lots more. Who’d join sects when given such perks? The stage is set for our Spirit farmer. Now Aksai, his companions, and you, his readers, are in for a journey of rebirth, redemption, and a whole lot of dirt under your fingernails. ============ Additional Tags: #druid #bloodlines #Martialarts #worldhopping #artificialintelligence #coldmc #battlenovel #calculatingmc #villain #farming #spiritcultivation #mindcultivation #bodycultivation #worldhopping #rpgelements #low-keymc #sliceoflife #nonarrogantmc
