Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 588: How to Survive in this hall?

The sounds of people screaming in pain and agony echoes in the whole volcano area. It almost affected Tan Shenyu and Xue Renxue who are in the middle of meditation. Shen Jueyang had isolated the largest pool from all other sounds in the hall. Even Yue Xuexia, the Moon Goddess who is busy cooking, looks in their direction. Seeing the ones who were injured had nothing to do with her, she resumed her cooking.

The friends of those who were burned pulled away the ones who had suffered and scolded them while helping them heal.

Tan Bingyu and Baimei approach the Moon Goddess and report what happened to the area where they had picked up the rest.

"Ashes turning into sand? Well deaths in extreme places like this hall is not impossible. Your father and partner will take a while to complete their training and I’ve already saved their parts. I will explain the situation of this hall to everyone while we eat," said the Moon Goddess.

Tan Bingyu said, "I want to check on father and A’Ren before eating."

"Go ahead. Call those other two in there as well. Tell them I’ve left their share in the kitchen," said Yue Xuexia as she joined the others at the tables.

Baimei didn’t follow her master and went to the corner where a big basin prepared by the Moon Goddess was left for her and started eating like everyone else.

The largest lava pool is quite far if one walks normally. To Cultivators though, this distance is just a few light foot techniques. Shen Jueyang and the Sun God didn’t expect Tan Bingyu to arrive.

The Immortal Sun Emperor asked, "You’re back. It seems you have brought all those who had survived."

"Those who can’t adapt to the sun will die anyway. I don’t know what she is thinking about," the Sun God commented.

Shen Jueyang asked, "Why are you here? Your father and partner aren’t done with training yet."

Tan Bingyu had seen her father and lover from a distance and felt relief that their state was alright. Only then did she respond to the Immortal Sun Emperor’s words.

She said, "The mistress said the Lords’ meal was left in the kitchen."

After taking one last glance at the two in the lava pool, Tan Bingyu also took her leave. She didn’t care if the two were going to follow her or not. Her errand was only to inform them about dinner. She turns back without care for the rest. The Sun God who was used to being treated as an emperor wasn’t used to being treated this way.

With a frown on his face, the Sun God asked, "Is that girl always like this?"

"You mean Tang Bingyu? Her demeanor is originally cold but she is approachable. She is also the aide of Xue’er." The Immortal Sun God, Shen Jueyang said.

Observing the frown and expression on the Sun God as if he was offended, Shen Jueyang knew why. Maybe because he had been living in a modern society after meeting Yue Xuexia that he didn’t mind this reaction from a lady. In Cultivation World, most females unless they are powerful would respect any male and lower themselves under them. But in the modern world, though the world is unfair, females and males see each other as equal. Females are never servants to the males.

That’s why Tan Bingyu can leave after running an errand without waiting for their permission to leave. She was there only to pass a message from her master and that’s all. But for the Sun God, as a female he expected Tan Bingyu to wait for him to send her away. That’s why when she left without turning back he felt offended.

Shen Jueyang asked, "You wanted to know why didn’t she wait for your permission to leave just now? I ask you, did she even ask your permission to report just now?"

The Sun God rethinks what happened and notices that Tan Bingyu didn’t ask either of their permission as well, making his face uglier.

"Is she your concubine? A spoiled kind?" The God of Sun asked.

Shen Jueyang said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I told she is an aide. She is not even my subordinate. She will not listen to me unless Xue’er gives her permission. The reason why she is acting like that is because she has been living in a world where females and males are equal."

"What kind of world is that? So ridiculous!" The Sun God said.

Shen Jueyang chuckled and said, "Don’t speak nonsense to Xue’er. Something like how females are supposed to follow men. She will definitely beat the hell out of you."

"So in the world you came from, women and men are equal. How about the powerful ones?" The Sun God asked.

Shen Jueyang said, "Same as here. However, most of the time females and males are equal. Well, that is unless you are in power. Like how Xue’er uproots one clan for one of their people, offending her younger sister. It’s the same as you know. But their mindset is completely different from what you are used to."

The Sun God fell in deep thoughts as he stared at Yue Xuexia from a distance, smiling at both men and women and even sharing the same table. Well, only those who got used to this or those who didn’t mind this setting would sit on the table. He had seen a cultivator wanting to send away a female cultivator who wanted to share a table but made a ruckus about rules. In the end, the Moon goddess made a move and threw him out of the volcano area to survive on his own. Only then did he believe the words of Shen Jueyang. It can be said that the Moon Goddess of this era is like a female emperor, the one that can be kind to her people and at the same time ruthless to her enemies.

Shen Jueyang pulled him towards the kitchen and found their meals. Their requests just now had been prepared carefully with a few more extras in the mix. Shen Jueyang ate without problems and was happily enjoying his meals. On the other hand, the Sun God was stunned. He can feel a pure energy isolated within the meals.

The Sun God mumbles, "Is this Spirit Food? She can cook Spirit Food?"

"Of course, why do you think her subordinates can break through in the Mortal Realm with dense qi?" Shen Jueyang said.

The more the Sun God learns about the current Moon Goddess the more he feels that she is interesting. He almost couldn’t move his gaze on her. Shen Jueyang didn’t mind. Like how he didn’t care why Taiyang could stay by Yue Xuexia’s side before he got his current vessel, the Sun God is also a part of him. Even if he fell for the Moon Goddess, is it still him?

During dinner, Yue Xuexia explained to Tan Bingyu and the rest the requirements of this hall. Of course, even though she is only informing her people, she didn’t lower her voice too much and everyone can hear it as long as they are interested.

The Moon Goddess said, "I’ve met the Sun God. The only way to go to the next hall is for you to survive in this hall for a week. Originally, there was no evening in this hall and it’s all sunny day for the whole week. I have gotten permission to let the night descend only in this area. It would last for at least eight hours, as for the rest of the time it will always be day."

"There are lots of treasures in this place. All of it is related to sun and fire attributes. Of course, among these natural treasures will give you a buff or resistance to both the sun and the fire. This will allow you to survive this fall. This hall is also the perfect place to have fire resistance. You will get it as long as you survive. Just in case, I will give a minor moon blessing to everyone, it will only last for 6 hours every day. It will activate as long as you leave this night region."

"Now you were given 6 hours of survival time under the sun and 8 hours of evening time. Think of a way to use the remaining 10 hours of your day. You also cannot stay in the night region all the time as you will freeze. When that happens I will not help you, I’ve already given you a path to live, as for the rest I no longer care. To survive you need to use your brain and wits."

"After dinner, clean up, do not dip in the middle lava pool. Only those who were born with fire spirit roots or Yang related special physique can stay there. You can try the smaller pool to warm yourself."

After hearing the explanation and receiving guidance from the Moon Goddess, everyone saluted her. Yue Xuexia only nodded her head and looked at her subordinates and acquaintances.

Yue Xuexia said, "Survive. This is your own trial." Then she left to check on Tan Shenyu and Xue Renxue. Baimei and Tan Bingyu followed her.

Tang Huangyu remained as he needed to continue observing people. The Mistress had told them everything that needed to be said. He can control the fire element and decided to dip in the middle lava pool after eating dinner.

Sect Master of the Starfield Sect, Xing Kunlun, decided to approach Tan Huangyu. The two of them can be considered acquainted thanks to Grandpa Xia. There is also the Sword God Roushen and Elder Wan Wuyi as well as their disciple, Wan Yuyan.

"Brother Tan, we’ve seen a cluster of immortal herbs not far from here. It’s just that it’s near the volcano. Do you want to come with us?" Sect Master Xing Kunlun asked.

Tan Huangyu thought for a moment and finally shook his head. He said, "I want to try the lava pool first. I have a fire elemental root in me. Maybe it would give me a surprise I would not have expected."

"This hall is compatible with Brother Tan. I am a Light spirit root possessor. The lava pool can instantly kill me. Then we will not join Brother Tan for his one," said Xing Kunlun.

Tan Huangyu noticed that none of the disciples from the Starfield Sect is born with fire spirit root or he would have offered to watch over them as they dip in the lava pool.

He can only say, "Please be careful. It’s unknown what might be hiding in that volcano."

"It’s alright. We have no intention of going to the peak. Just at the foot of the volcanoes," Sect Master Xing Kunlun said.

The others also dispersed around the area after cleaning up. They knew that this kind of meal will not be served every time and most cultivators had saved their parts to last for a few days. Meals made by the Moon Goddess are all spirit food. Those who can enjoy it all the time can only be her people.
