Chapter 139 Golden Hair Breakthrough
Du Huaiyuan sank the spirit wine to the bottom of the pool and returned to the shore, saying:

"Junior brother, I see the spring's mouth has expanded considerably, now as thick as your forearm.

Now that there are so many springs gushing out, why not expand the cold pond?"

By widening the cold pond, he would be able to store more spiritual wine.

"Brother, you know the answer but still ask."

Ji An smiled faintly twice, and the spiritual energy in the spring water continued to dissipate outwards.

If the area of ​​the cold pond is expanded, the concentration of spiritual energy in the pond water will inevitably decrease, and the advantages gained from upgrading the spiritual vein will be greatly reduced.

It’s good to maintain the current area so that we can breed higher-grade spirit fish in the future.

Du Huaiyuan laughed twice after his thoughts were exposed, and then said:
"Junior brother, you have so many spiritual trees now. It's too tiring to take care of them all by yourself. Why not hire some spiritual farmers to help?"

Ji An shook his head slightly:

"I've hired some disciples to clear the weeds, but I still have to cast the spell myself."

The reason why these spiritual trees have grown to their current size is entirely due to the several perfect-level planting spells he casts every day.

His goal was to showcase his talent and get involved in as few disputes as possible, and hiring other people would definitely not achieve that effect.

Du Huaiyuan just said it casually, and he changed the subject:

"If we use mulberries to make wine in the future, Junior Brother will have to build a winemaking workshop here and draw water directly from the spiritual spring."

The spiritual water here is of very good quality and can also improve the quality of spiritual wine.

"Brother, please draw the blueprints and I'll find someone to build it. Don't make it too large."

Du Huaiyuan rolled up his sleeves and tapped his temple with his finger:

"The winery's construction plan is imprinted in my mind, and I can draw it now."

Let’s settle the matter now to prevent my junior brother from changing his mind later.

Ji An laughed and replied, "Okay!"

He led Senior Brother Du into the stone house where he drew talismans, found a wooden ruler and a broken talisman brush, mixed the cinnabar, and watched him draw the blueprint.

The other party lived up to his promises and drew a blueprint in less than two quarters of an hour, marking the dimensions of each part on it.

Du Huaiyuan put down his pen, picked up the drawing, blew on it, and said proudly:

"Junior brother, when do you plan to build it?"

His hands shook twice, and the papers rustled.

"We'll find someone to build it tomorrow."

Ji An said that the winery must be built.

He expects that the mulberry fields near Hantan will bloom and bear fruit every year, and the quality of the mulberries produced will become higher and higher. The profit from selling fresh or dried mulberries will be too small.

Du Huaiyuan stayed for a while and then said goodbye and left. Ji An looked at the shuttle flying away and shook his head slightly.

This senior brother broke through the foundation-building stage a few years earlier than him, but now his cultivation is still stuck at the second level of foundation-building. He has spent too much time brewing spiritual wine.

But this was what the other party wanted, so he couldn't say anything to persuade him.

A cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage only has two hundred years to live, so time cannot be wasted.

Ji An flew to the cave, sat cross-legged on the stone bed, swallowed a Yunzhi pill, and then practiced Qingmu Changchun Gong to refine the pill.

The spiritual power contained in the elixir flows through the immortal veins, and strands of magic power are refined and gathered into the Qi Hai acupoint, resulting in a very slight increase in cultivation.

Small streams accumulate to form rivers and seas. Ji An knew that his talent was average, so he never relaxed his guard.

Without the support of cultivation, how can you have the chance to reach the moon in the sky?
Whether it is the Qi Refining Stage or the Foundation Establishment Stage, the essence of improving cultivation is the accumulation of magic power.

Only when breaking through the Chaoyuan period, do you need to comprehend the divine intention of the technique and stimulate the fire of life.

Li Lingyu piloted the flying shuttle and hovered outside the Red Flame Peak, sending out a communication sword talisman and waiting for the master to lift the ban.

Half a minute later, the gate of the mountain protection array opened, and she urged the shuttle to enter the mountain gate.

As soon as she entered, she felt the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and couldn't help but sigh at her junior brother's good luck.

After circling over the mulberry fields, she flew over the cold pond and slowly descended using her magic weapon.

Ji An bowed with a warm smile on his face:
"Why did Senior Sister come here in person? Just send me the talisman sword and let me know to pick it up."

The elixir used to build the foundation of the spirit-seeking rat has been refined, and the golden-haired beast will be able to help in battle in the future.

"I've come to see how much has changed here.

If we can cultivate the spiritual mulberry trees in due time, I can earn a steady income every year without doing anything."

Li Lingyu suddenly felt that being a spiritual farmer was not a bad idea. The spiritual veins here were of high enough quality that he could still gain something even if he didn't take care of them.

Although the speed at which the alchemist earns spirit stones seems very fast, as long as he does not start refining the elixir, he will be eating up all his earnings.

She handed over a jade bottle and held it out, saying:

"There are two pills in it, which should be enough for the Soul Seeking Rat to advance."

"Thank you for your help, Senior Sister. How many more spirit stones do I need to replenish you?"

Ji An took the jade bottle, poured out the pill and sniffed it close to his nose. The pill had a faint earthy smell.

"Luckily, the second furnace was successful. The number of pills is not bad. You only need to spend another 200 spirit stones."

Li Lingyu looked around and said:
"Where's the golden retriever? When are you going to let it take the pill?"

Ji An took out two medium-grade spirit stones and handed them to the other party, saying:

"Golden Retriever is playing in the cave. We will prepare for it to break through tomorrow."

Since the Earth Spirit Fruit Tree was transplanted back, Golden Retriever has spent most of his time in the cave.

Ji An communicated with it using the Beast Taming Card and learned that it felt very comfortable staying near the spirit tree.

"I will wait until Jinmao has established his foundation before I leave." Li Lingyu said. No one around her had a demon beast at the foundation-building level.

"Welcome, I'll ask someone to prepare a quiet room for you to rest.

However, I have to cast a spell for the spiritual field tonight, so I don't have time to entertain you. Please forgive me."

Ji An suddenly felt the need to recruit a female disciple so that he could talk to people at times like this.

"Go and do your own thing. People who practice Taoism don't have to be so particular. Well, just let Golden Hair accompany me tonight."

Li Lingyu said that the spirit-seeking rat was furry and very clever, and she also wanted to raise a similar beast.

However, the spirit-seeking rats sold in the Beast Taming Hall were not as spiritual as the ones raised by her junior brother, so she gave up the idea.

The next day, at the beginning of Mao hour.

Li Lingyu walked into the green bamboo forest, ready to find a place to practice his skills.

Her martial arts method is Qingmu Changchun Gong, which is more effective when practiced in a forest with richer wood element spiritual energy.

In the bamboo forest next to the cold pond, most of the spiritual bamboos are of the first-grade upper grade, and there are even more than a dozen of the first-grade best grade.

Practicing here might be more effective than practicing in her own cave.

She sensed that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was converging toward the center of the bamboo forest, flowing deeper into it along the winding path.

Suddenly, Li Lingyu noticed a faint light flashing in the distance, and her pace quickened a bit. Then she saw a shocking scene.

Junior Brother Ji sat cross-legged in the center, the spiritual energy above his head gathered into a vortex, and green spots of light flew out from the spiritual bamboo. The dancing light in the sky made the place look like a dream.

Li Lingyu felt the fluctuations of the wood element's inspiration, and his mind became intoxicated.

Ji An felt someone approaching, stopped practicing and opened his eyes.

Ever since the two wood-type Taoist species were upgraded to the lower grade, he could vaguely feel the emotions of the spiritual bamboo while practicing here, and these spiritual woods became an extension of his sense of touch.

"Senior Sister, are you here to practice as well?"

Li Lingyu said "hmm" and asked:

"When did it start?"

The strange phenomenon that the other party experienced while practicing just now only occurs after the skills have been comprehended to a certain level. Many cultivators cannot have such an understanding even if they have reached the late stage of foundation building.

Senior Sister's question was somewhat nonsensical, but Ji An understood the meaning and responded:
"Four or five days."

Li Lingyu had a complicated expression. After a long sigh, he said sincerely:

"Congratulations, Junior Brother. Have you told Master this good news?"

The other party was able to comprehend some of the divine meaning of the technique in the early stage of foundation building. She felt that the foundation building stage would not be the end of the other party.

"Not yet. I'm thinking of going back to Ningcui Cliff one day and telling Master in person."

Ji An replied that now that he had mastered the magic skills and felt more confident, he would not stay at home in Chiyan Peak like before.

In a few days, he would need to go to the Beast Taming Hall on Cuizhu Peak to collect the Fire Crystal Ants, which was a good opportunity to pay a visit to his master.

"I wonder how happy Master will be when he finds out."

Ji An opened the magic ban and stepped into the underground cave, with the golden-haired dog jumping behind him.

The earth-based spiritual energy in the cave is more abundant, which should be of some help to the advancement of Beast Taming.

Li Lingyu was a little puzzled and asked:

"What made you want to dig a hole down there?"

"I took a job to help cultivate spiritual trees. Four earth spirit fruit trees that grow in a dark environment."

Ji An briefly explained his need for golden-spotted spider silk and said with a smile:

"I originally wanted to refine a defensive spiritual weapon, but who knew I'd discover a business opportunity."

Li Lingyu said in a bad tone:

"A defensive spiritual weapon? You're so rich, yet you're planning to buy me pills on credit!"

To refine spiritual weapons, one needs second-level spiritual objects. How can one possibly dream of refining spiritual weapons without some wealth?

"Senior Sister, I just have this intention. It's not even close to happening yet. I don't know how long it will take to refine it."

As they talked, they soon reached the bottom of the cave.

Ji An took out a homemade dark red pill, then took out another pill and placed it on the ground.

Pills are used to assist in building the foundation. Like elixirs, their recipes come from the inheritance obtained.

In a sense, pills are the lead for elixirs and can stimulate the efficacy of the medicine to a greater extent.

The golden retriever sniffed and swallowed the two pills one at a time.

After a few breaths, the demonic power in its body began to rise steadily, and its body slowly expanded.

The breakthrough of a demon beast is to break the limits of its physical body and purify its blood, thereby awakening more innate spells.

The golden-haired man's aura quickly rose to the edge of the foundation-building stage, just one step away from success.

Ji Anluo clenched his fists nervously, secretly shouting "Come on" in his heart. Now he could only rely on Jinmao himself, he could not help at all.

Time seemed to become very long, and the golden-haired man's breath was stuck at the last step, and he never completed the breakthrough.

Ji An took out the jade bottle and considered whether to take out the other pill.

At this moment, the golden-haired beast's demonic energy suddenly surged, and it stepped into the threshold of the foundation-building stage.

Its bones crackled and its body expanded a little more at this moment.

"It's done!"
