Jin would made the whole farm pause with that statement. The next moment he would be subdued, and exorcised for possession.

taukid

I thought for sure he was good tell Minyan, "In another life, maybe I'd being calling you mother" like the AU, lol

Aune

The Heavenly Master of the Dao of Destruction makes his debut chapter in the coming future! Praise Master worm, whom even union of Man & Earth bows' it's head

Timothy Dana

Next chapter today?

Alex

I don’t think that’s a thing that can be fixed. Peppa’s inability to taste things is kind of like Minyan’s cold — it’s just a part of who they are at this point.

Marian Ch

I'd say that Tigu and Yin are the most in-line with usual cultivation practices, having used external triggers to achieve their goal - one used a reagent, the other passed a heavenly tribulation. Washy is, as far as I recall, pretty in line with expectations. He takes on the appearance of a carp solely cause it's more convenient most times. If anything, Chunky is probably the strangest, at least as far as magic-meth huffing cultivators are concerned. His state of mind and soul must feel very strange to them. At the end of the day, all that matters is that these are essentially pokemon evolutions.

ekwood

I was never really clear on the nature of Miantiao's injury i.e. how and how much it is debilitating for snek.

Bryan Jackson

How do you picture Rags meeting Minyan going? How many seconds would he last before he hits on her and she straight up murders him?

Spade ♠️ Dragon

Very nice chapter, but there was no interaction between minyan and zhuye. I need to know If the little baby can break the ice Queens facade. I imagine something like the Brooklyn 99 Dog meme.

Angela Roberts

Chill old people! Love it.

Zero Wrath

Loved the chapter!

Randall Brynsvold

Search for "legendary root" on the Casual's Farm discord.

Geoffrey Sullivan

It *is* nice to see Jin with *his* people, after so many of the others have hung around with theirs. :)

Serpentssnare

She's in route to the farm already due to Pale Moon Lake City's crystals all shattering twice in a short time. Was hoping they'd show up just as the elders were leaving.

Serpentssnare

Chunky's had the most complex method and I'd bet his explanation would be the hardest to understand. "Trotted to ends of world, climbed unclimbable mountain, reached the edge of nirvana, asked heaven for a boon, was judged okay for it, then trotted back." Yukong's reaction would be priceless.

Sleepyfoo

My suspicion is Shen Yu will bring it up to both explain the oath mentioned during the meeting and Minyan's inital reaction, as well as a warning for Zhuye and what may happen with him and any future children. He would definitely want to get that warning given before the Zhuye could be possibly old enough to hear and understand.

Raraki Kraken

Wait!!...."...lodging for DISCIPLES ON PATROL... "? The Tsunami Idiots are coming!!

Ligeia

Thank you, @forest tate! You're right, it's probably a reference to Meimei's demonic relative.

Ligeia

Shou just went over the procedure with Mei and Rizu in minute detail so they know what to do when they do it. I suspect that, like with Bowu's knee, they'll have a couple of practice surgeries on other creatures -- probably fish, like was mentioned? because you can eat them if it fails -- before they do the actual surgery on Miantiao.

Ligeia

Especially the entirely accurate description of Jin and Shou "nerding out." That was something I'd really been waiting for, and it didn't disappoint!

Cranky Otter

After the text made it more clear she thought she owed Jin, not vice versa, I was thinking maybe it was the demonic siphoning formation or how to cultivate silver yin lotuses, but yeah, helping restore Gramps to a functional human (like) state is probably what she’s actually rewarding. Thanks y’all.

Cranky Otter

I love how much Peppa enjoys sledding & surfing.

Alex Ingraham

I can't wait for Zhuye to start getting chapters of his own. He's going to be driving everyone crazy lol

justarando

For a second I wondered who were the web designer disciples but then realized I’m not at work

Timothy Dana

“I played a couple of games of Go with Ge and got my ass handed to me—he seemed to find it simultaneously hilarious and baffling that I was this bad at the game.” wouldn’t it be even funnier if Jin is also a prodigy at tic-tac-toe where he always win unless Jin forces as draw Leaving Ge flabbergasted and Shen Yu chortling

Some guy

Go to your membership tab for Casualfarmer and scroll down to quick links. Of course, then you need to comb through the discord to actually find the info!

Insertnamehereokokipressedokok

Awesome. Dumdums incoming.

Grappleshot

I think Yukon was more confused by the myriad ways the people achieved human form she wasn't familiar with. Like Chunkey just asking heaven, the moon rabbits making a necklace, and Ri zu recreating the human body and maybe it's bloodline.

uavgas

I am glad Noodle is getting the help he needs for his back. But one thing I wonder is, when Peppa will get help with her cultivation so she can taste food again? It doesn't seem like she has any idea how to do it herself.

WonderBread459

Hasn’t started yet. Guan Chyou is almost ready, they’ve got a boat, a crew, and a mostly to date map. Depending on how things go this book, they might leave before the end, but it’s a hyped up storyline that we’re likely going to see it for how long it’s been in the works.

Bryan Jackson

The expedition is still in the exploration and planning stage. She and her brother visited the farm just a couple months ago (narrative time. It was forever ago in the series).

Alibhai

My sympathies for your broken key, but this was surprisingly a interesting comment to read. 😅😂

Duncan Morin

My key bet een e and q is broken.... Ok, that being said I really enjoyed this story arc but I am happy the story is moving on. There as a lot of ground covered in the 'visiting elders arc'. Finally got to see an apology made in person and in front of an elder from a different sect. Seeing ho they all interacted ith Fa Ram as everything I imagined. This is one of the best stories I have ever read, thank you. A fe things I'm looking for ard to, seeing the results of being blacklisted by the Azure Jade Trading company and ho far the ne alliance in Azure Hills ill go.

AlecL

Huh those lines about trade from around the empire made me remember that one woman who Jin sent on an expedition to bring back cocoa??! Wonder what happened to her

mag28

I betting for an old monster like her bloodline awakenings is more common. If they explained how it happend it(like the specific circumstances) she might be interested, but idk if they did.

mag28

I don't really use discord much, how do I get link for it?

Bryan Jackson

It will absolutely be Seiyu and Bailu At the least

forest tate

I didn't know I needed this until now

Michael Larsen

Let’s be honest, part of that trade was Minyan showing her gratitude to Jin for all he has (intentionally or not) done to help Gramps turn his life around out. ❤️

Michael Larsen

“You really are his grandson,” might be the single greatest compliment she could possible deliver. ❤️❤️❤️ 😂😂😂

Just A Dude

Well, Biyu is in for another dose of Interesting Times. Still, she's going to end up better off for it so I can't wait to see how it all turns out when the Elders visit her.

WarStrider72

Sledding is a great way to end the day.

WarStrider72

I thought the CSS disciples and SHI disciples would also come to Fa Ram as well? Guess there's always next time.

Some guy

Oooh. I need to check and see if my theory is right! To the discord! *Looks at discord* ... Darn, I was way off.

Geoffrey Sullivan

All in all, a most *refreshing* vacation for the Elders, I should think - and *certainly* for *us.* Thank you! :)

Geoffrey Sullivan

That's my impression as well.

Silberkinn

You can find one on the discord, months ago cf spoiled something...

forest tate

My guess is demon in charge or demonic imperial cultivaror.

forest tate

Owl

forest tate

I think that waits until the disciples come for a rest. Storm wings or other SHI folks might recognize her

Catherine

No. I think they just refined the procedure but haven’t actually performed it yet

Gopard

Thanks for the chapter!

Kt-x

Thanks for the chapter 😊

Spacefather

So is miantiao's spine fixed?

Aki_Iokua18

Word of Farmer is that aside from her voluptuousness, Xiulan gets her looks from her dad. Also Minyan recognizing Xiulan is like asking Jeff Bezos to recognize the relative of a warehouse manager, a relative with very little resemblance to said manager.

Kreylix

The big trip Jin commissioned with the Azure Trade Company. Who from Fa Ram will accompany it? Washi? And? It also seems time to check in with the Magistrate’s son.

Random Information

I don't think Xiulan looks like her mother.

BargleNawdleZouss

If Yukong transformed into a Spirit Beast, what animal would she be?

BargleNawdleZouss

Indeed it is!

Deathlokke

Still no resolution on the mystery root :(

Hakurei06

definitely the former. If she thought he owed her, she probably wouldn't be negotiating a trade that has her trading away more high value goods and services, like the right of boarding/passage on a skyship. She mentioned the techniques jin had been sharing.

Ozzy

The ships need to wander and explore while Jim is tied to the farm so they wouldn't be a good match in this timeline, but most of the people from the farm would work. Yun Ren in particular would be a great match being able to fly around the world taking pictures of the sights.

Ozzy

Given the rising level of Qi and cultivation levels in the provence the crystals aren't going to be of much use for very long anyway.

Ken Horne

I must ask, is your name a Weird Al reference?

Lanter

Wonder if their transforming techniques completely goes against all established theories on "Spirit Beast -> Human Body" transformation. We got Bi De, Rizu and Pipa(?) who did it with cultivation and willpower, Tigu and Yin who unlocked the ability with an evolution stone/cultivating reagents (+sunrock/+lightning), Chunky who practically ascended and then descended back down for his wife, and Washy who definitely goes against all the stories of Carp dragons by shrinking back into a carp, and partially transforming whenever he needs opposable thumbs. 🤔

Catherine

So Yukong was studying the transformation to human by the animals. Did she also watch the change of human to sort of animal of yun and gou? I know they don’t fully change and just get the ears and tails but surely it’s an interesting point of study too.

Cranky Otter

Enjoyed the chill chapter. Had no idea if Minyan thought she/her sect owed Jin or vice versa though. Was it the warning of demons that she felt she needed to compensate or something else?

The GrandMage

I just can't help imagining Biyu saying a few things, and giving up a "Mortal-Made" recording crystal as small as she can make it, and some Cultivator crystal carver looking at it for a few minutes, and coming back with what is essentially a bag full of sand you throw at your opponent that gets everywhere and records everything around them. Find out your opponent's hidden Grotto and secret training methods, now with new Pocket Spy Sand.

acg

To me this seems like an interlude....I highly doubt that unc and deamon going to another contenent will be a long term threat and most likely events will spiral out of control as time goes on

Synova Vitale

Nooo… you can’t leave yet gramps!! Loud boy, rags, and Biyu are on the way and the girl needs to see her man’s new tail and ears.

Tsorov

While I agree that we are coming to the end of this ark, at least in 5 or so more chapters, you all forget that this is not your usual Xinxia, where every enemy has to be a big bad evil overlord that tries to kill the MC. I could totally see this next arc being that other cultivators take an interest in the Azure hills, after their Qi is being restored, and Jin having to act as a protector figure for the alliance. There is still a need for the time skip though. And we will probably get many scenes of the little one growing up

G

Don't agree Alex. Jin can definitely grow sky ship in this U. He just needs to be present (given Shennong).

fruit dragon

But you're forgetting he has shenog hacks for knowing how to grow plants so maybe he himself can't grow them but he would know how to

Ligeia

Agreed, @Angel! I love Miantiao -- he's had such a hard life in so many respects, and he's finally found another Home where he can be happy for the first time in too many years. Fixing his spine and giving him full mobility again should definitely bring on the happy tears! Such a sweet snake...

fruit dragon

ha yes the The return of bakasama

Ligeia

DIC? Sorry, your acronym stumped me.

Ope 'scuse me

I kept waiting for Minyan to remark on how familiar Cai Xiulan looked.

Alex Ingraham

We've still got several short-term things to do: Azure Alliance stuff; Emperor meeting the crystal spirit; Rags and Loud Boy showing up with Biyu; Zhuye shenanigans, etc.

Trevor Mergen

Thanks!

BelligerentGnu

Poor, poor Biyu. Yun, how could you do that to her? And Yukong is so definitely developing an animal form.

Timothy Dana

Bad juju

Stuffed Duck

Only nameless antagonists are dead, Uncle and DIC are still around, the former getting new allies.

Katharine Gould

Thanks for the chapter boss!

Robert Adams

I was kind of thinking the same. The heavenly Demon is on another continent now and will likely be a "lurking in the shadows" kind of threat for a few hundred years. Given the pace of the story, that means he is effectively a non threat. Which means we need a new threat from another source, possibly demons, more likely asshole cultivators or immortals. The only thing I'm confident in is that I feel a time skip coming. It would solve a lot of the issues we're seeing by skipping a few years into the future, when we're seeing the growth and fallout of all these world changing revelations.

Stark Trist

Thanks for the chapter

Stark Trist

Love the direction this is going. It's very hard to have standout character moments with the elders when all of them are at Faram. Having them dip in and out is probably for the best. A bit disappointed none of the elders joined in the hockey, but it's not entirely unexpected. Also wouldn't really be a challenge for them and might terrify the whole Provence should any of them get serious.

Palmer Evans

It feels like this book is the epilogue to the series. All the known enemies are subdued or scattered (besides maybe some remnants within the Empire?). So Tianlan needs to get fully healed and maybe reach out to other Earth Spirits to repair the Wastes… what else is left?

jord

*Provisions... wonder what grade rice they'll end up getting? Gold? Jade? Something that would usually beggar a sect for knowledge freely given? Would be funny af.

Often Irrelephant

Yun is helping invent spy cameras? Every Elder in the universe: "Now, take plenty of pictures when you go out!"

Randall Brynsvold

Tianlan is a jealous partner and wouldn't be OK with Jin aligning himself with a God Beast. And Meiling might have something to say about the process, too. (And the procedure Rao used in the SHI Alt chapters involved three "normal" seeds; the seeds had to feel right, but the rest of it was the compatible Qi and the procedures from the scroll.)

Valerian

Bet it will be the terrible twosome from the offshoot Shi Jin AU.

Randall Brynsvold

My headcanon is that it will come out when Shen Yu considers whether to make a commitment to move in with Minyan, and what that would entail, and whether he could be persuaded to be OK with children in his future, if she wanted them, now that he has a widely recognized success on his second attempt to raise an heir (Jin) and a good start on a third (Bi De).

linkhyrule5

Title has an extra possessive apostrophe... well, technically it could be correct as written but then it'd mean "... the shaking (caused by) the Heavens", which is usually not what the phrase is used to mean :p T4TC!

Angel

So freaking excited for the fun chapter when Jin gets a massive delivery of stuff from the fairies!!! Sounds like it’s going to really change things around the farm, and Meimei will be over the moon at her new medical scrolls! I love how Jin always thinks of her needs and passions when he makes any kind of plans, it’s so freaking wholesome. And is anyone else excited for the chapter where Noodle gets his spine fixed?? I’ve been catching myself driving, cooking, etc. and fantasizing about his reaction to waking up healed, with full spinal mobility. I mean come on, that’s heartwarming in the best sense of the word and I can’t wait!

Lalzparty

> Provisions and lodging for Disciples On Patrol. Oh, I’m now curious who’s coming on the first patrol

Angel

I second this! ✌🏻👏🏻

Angel

That’s exactly what I was thinking, and was wondering if anyone would warn them to rein it in. 😂

Trish Brown

Loved this one.

Alex

I doubt it. If Lu Ri could figure out the purpose of the heavenly ascension stone talismans that the guards wear then Yukong definitely can — Lu Ri might forewarn them about reeling in their Qi too. Minyan blew up the stones by accident because she was coincidentally flying over Pale Moon Lake City when she let off a massive blast of Qi to make her ship fly faster.

Alex

I don’t think it’s possible for this version of Jin to grow a living ship. Jin was on a whole different path in the alternate universe, and the dumdums were heavily involved in Ningjing’s creation too — there was something about the ship’s creation requiring the union between the arts of the wandering deer and soaring bird.

Alex Rahr

Those cultivator detection crystals are going to outright detonate when Yukong drops by the Crystal Emporium.

Simone Newsome

Thanks for the chapter 😊 as always I truly enjoy your writing!

Davan Krueger

Maybe not a short visit for mortals but not overly long

Davan Krueger

That was a short visit for mortals I'd call that a hurried for these ancient Masters

MARK MACKNET

Consider having him study how to grow their ships…….. good chapter

Aki_Iokua18

Flying ships are indeed awesome. Always a nice bit of stress relief when guests leave. And I get how Shen Yu telling Jin about Bu doesn’t fit. For one thing, Shen Yu doesn’t strike me as one to just talk about that without external prompting, and no one seemed ready to push him like that. Also Jin seems the type to just let sleeping dogs lie if the other person didn’t seem comfortable talking about something, so it’s hard to imagine how the conversation would start.

Alex

Saw the line in the last chapter about how this one was meant to be kinda heavy and was waiting for the other shoe to drop. I guess that part’s still coming after the reworking.

Rake1810

Wonderful end to The Visit

taukid

I'm kinda sad he didn't get a seed to try and grow a sky ship like his AU counterpart

Amirul Lokman Hakim

Nice chapter :)

TFTC!

CringeWorthyStudios

Aww, no disaster twins or Biyu yet? I was waiting to see Biyu meet Elder Yukong and see how impressed she was that a *mortal* did such good work. Thanks for the chapter!

BargleNawdleZouss

Title is on the nose

Weaver

Nice

Sean Ulrich

Question! Do we have art of Young Gramps? Could be cool…
