Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 172 Blood Refining Pill

Being stared at by the two elderly monks, Ji An felt somewhat uncomfortable and changed the subject:
"It's better to do it now than today. Let's tour the Red Flame Peak today. What do you think, brothers and sisters?"

The report just now was just a bunch of cold numbers. Seeing the real thing will give people a greater impact.

"good!"

Ye Changqing smiled, he pinched his fingers to open the storage bag and released his spiritual crane.

“Since we are sightseeing, let’s fly slowly and take a closer look.

Senior Sister Li, what do you think?

He had been to Red Flame Peak many times, but had never appreciated the full scenery here.

Unknowingly, this sacred mountain that could only produce first-grade top-grade materials could now provide a stable supply of second-grade spiritual materials. He wanted to carefully evaluate the potential of this place.

"Right on my mind."

Li Minghui smiled and nodded, pointing to the bamboo forest by the lake:
"Let's start with this piece of Qingling bamboo."

As she spoke, she patted the spirit beast bag and released a golden-winged eagle.

A cold eagle cry pierced through the gold and split the rocks and soared into the sky, carrying a sense of arrogance and publicity.

The gray-feathered sand goose swimming in the cold pond heard the noise, dived down, and disappeared for a long time.

Ji An was speechless. Where has your usual rebellious and arrogant demeanor gone?
He took out the beast-controlling card and forcibly summoned the gray-feathered sand goose.

The sand goose poked its head out of the water with a sly look and flew over reluctantly.

Li Minghui stroked the feathers on the back of the golden eagle and chuckled:

"Junior brother, this sand goose is very spiritual and worthy of being trained as a Foundation Establishment mount."

When she chooses beasts to tame, she always values ​​their spirituality.

"I always feel that sometimes too much spirituality is not good. Since I bought the shuttle, I haven't used this sand goose much on a daily basis, so I don't have a strong desire to train it to the Foundation Establishment stage."

The sand goose is not as good as the golden-winged eagle and other raptor-type monsters. Even if it is cultivated to the foundation-building stage, it can only be used as a mount.

Moreover, the elixirs that can help Sha Yan break through the foundation-building stage are relatively rare, so Ji An takes a casual attitude towards Sha Yan's growth.

It would be best if you could break through to the foundation-building level, but if you can't, you can just use it as is.

"A few days ago, I happened to collect materials and asked someone to refine a furnace of blood-refining pills for water-walking monsters to break through the foundation-building stage.

There is only one left now. If you need it, I can sell it to you for one thousand spirit stones."

Li Minghui said that she had originally planned to keep this pill, but the junior brother Ji she met today was quite capable, so it was just the right time to give it to him to make friends with him.

"What a coincidence? Then I would like to thank you very much, Senior Sister."

Ji An readily took out ten mid-grade spirit stones and of course accepted the kindness that was offered to his door.

"You're welcome. Fellow disciples should help each other."

Li Minghui put away the spirit stone and took out a jade bottle from the storage bag.

Ji An took it and poured out the pill, and immediately smelled a faint fishy smell.

The pill was as red as blood, with three aqua-blue lines on it.

When the gray-feathered sand goose saw the pill, it immediately became excited, its eyes widened a little, and it stretched its neck to pounce on his hand, conveying an extremely eager emotion.

It neighed ingratiatingly and rubbed its head affectionately against the back of its owner's hand.

Ji An put away the pill, stroked Sha Yan's neck, and said in a deep voice:
"If you behave well in the next few days, I'll give you food as a reward."

If you want me to act cute, I will give it to you. Where is the dignity of a master?

The golden-haired beast broke through to the foundation-building stage and still dared to show disrespect to him. I wonder if this sand goose will be more submissive.

The gray-feathered sand goose let out a joyful cry, bent its long neck, and nodded gracefully.

Ji An sat astride the broad back of the beast and said:

"Brothers and sisters, let's get started."

The three of them urged their mounts to fly low.

“In this bamboo forest, there are eighteen second-level, lower-grade Qingling plants.

I don't think they can possibly be upgraded to the second-grade mid-grade, so let's cultivate them for a few more years and see. If that doesn't work, we'll cut them down and hand them over to the sect's secret vault."

Ji An pointed out the location of the second-level Qingling Bamboo to the other two people, and when he broke through to the middle stage of foundation building, he would also be able to refine these spiritual bamboos.

Ye Changqing smiled and said:
"You are able to cultivate the Qingling Bamboo to the second stage. Junior brother is also the first cultivator in the sect who can do this."

The three of them walked around the cold pond, and Ji An introduced the spiritual fruit trees and other spiritual herbs and medicines that were planted.

As they flew over the mulberry fields and the pine forests, Ji An said:

“With the increase in the number of high-level spiritual mulberry trees, the white jade bee colony has expanded rapidly, and currently there are approximately 200,000 white jade bees.

Next year, we will be able to deliver a large quantity of high-quality honey to the sect, along with a small amount of premium honey and royal jelly."

Starting next year, the number of white jade bee colonies will gradually stabilize.

Ye Changqing's eyes were bright and the corners of his mouth were upturned:

"Top-grade honey is the main ingredient in refining the Jade Bee Pill. This way, disciples in the late stage of Qi Refining will have another kind of elixir they can take."

If there are enough resources, the sect will definitely be able to produce more foundation-building monks.

They continued forward, hovering over the red cloud pine forest.

“Most of the second-level spiritual pines are here, and there is one planted at the entrance of my cave.

Near the foot of the mountain, there is a colony of fire crystal ants. The current number of ants is about 120,000 to 130,000."

Ye Changqing was in a playful mood, so he pinched his fingers and released the explosive fire technique, which hit a red cloud pine.

The pine needles point upwards, emitting a red glow, like a hedgehog with its fur standing on end.

The spell had no effect, and all the flames that were ignited were quickly absorbed by the pine trees.

He laughed and said:

"As expected of a second-level Red Cloud Pine!" Li Minghui laughed and said:

"I want to land and see the ant colony."

As a senior beastmaster, she is more interested in demonic beasts, although strictly speaking, fire crystal ants are demonic insects.

"plz follow me."

Ji An controlled the gray-feathered sand goose to fly to the foot of the mountain, and finally landed next to a red sand dune.

Li Minghui grabbed a handful of red sand, twisted it between her fingertips, and nodded slightly.

"Raising fire crystal ants in this red cloud pine forest is much easier."

There is plenty of food, and you can see how well-fed these fire ants are from the red sand.

Ji An smiled and said:

"I think so too. On weekdays, we almost let it roam free."

He would communicate with Hou every few days, but he never asked about the affairs of the Fire Crystal Ant colony.

Ye Changqing walked to the gourd stand and said:
"This seems to be a plant called Purple Fire Gourd. Am I right?"

Having worked in the Qingong Hall for many years, he is knowledgeable and knows a little about everything.

"Senior brother, your discerning eyes are as sharp as a torch. It is indeed the Purple Fire Gourd.

A few years ago, when I went to Mingfeng Mountain to participate in a mission, I saw Senior Brother Zhong Yue from the Law Enforcement Hall's top-grade purple fire gourd magic weapon, and I wanted one too."

The Purple Fire Gourd can spit out fire clouds, which is perfect for dealing with large numbers of demonic insects or mountain miasma, and it can easily burn ordinary demon beasts in the middle stage of foundation building.

Ji An walked to the gourd stand and said to the two of them:

"Generally speaking, the Purple Fire Gourd can only grow to the upper grade. I want to see if I can consistently cultivate a top grade gourd."

Ye Changqing shook his head slightly and said:

“It is not easy to realize this idea.

The Purple Fire Gourd only has a lifespan of three years, which is too short, so we can only rely on luck."

"Give it a try. It won't take much time to waste on it every day."

Ji An now uses the essence of fire to nourish the gourd vine every day, and uses the fire spell to nourish the spiritual roots.

When he has more seeds in the future, he can conduct more experiments to find the best cultivation method.

He sighed softly and said:

"I don't know how the cultivators in Luofeng Valley cultivate fire-type spiritual plants. I only have the Flame Curse, and this Qi Refining Stage spell is of little use."

Ye Changqing said:

"I've heard that some alchemists in Luofeng Valley practice the Dao of Ding Fire, and they often also practice planting spells like the Flame Curse.

With the added bonus of the technique, the Yang Fire Curse they release will have a greater benefit on the spiritual plants."

"I see. Just like the Qingmu Changchun Gong that I practice, using it on the Bimu Huasheng Gong will provide additional benefits."

Ji An shook his head. It was impossible for him to change his technique, as he was destined to be at a disadvantage in cultivating fire-type spiritual plants.

Li Minghui said:
"I think my junior brother made a mistake in choosing a technique. You chose the Wood Element Technique, but you already mastered the Thick Earth Returning Origin Mantra and the Spring Breeze Transforming Rain Technique. Your Jade Wood Transformation Technique is still at the Perfection stage. It's a bit of a waste of talent."

In her opinion, the other party was obviously more talented in earth and water.

Ji An laughed foolishly and said nothing.

The reason for this situation is that the stone turtle absorbed too little Zhen Ling and Xun Ling while staying in Bishui Lake and Ningcui Cliff.

However, it is not far from practicing the Bimumu Huasheng Gong to its extreme, just over a year.

By then, the good days for the Biluo tree, Feiye mulberry tree and Qingling bamboo will truly arrive.

The three of them mounted their mounts and continued to fly around the Red Flame Peak, passing the Copper-Patterned Mulberry Field, the Purple Yang Wood Forest, and the Black Yang Wood Forest, and finally returned to the Cold Pond.

Ye Changqing said:

"Junior brother, where did you place the Earth Spirit Fruit Tree?"

"Earth Spirit Fruit Tree? What grade? How many are there?"

Li Minghui immediately became interested and asked questions one after another.

Eating Earth Spirit Fruit can accelerate the growth of earth-based monsters. There are many earth-based monsters cultivated by the monks in the Beast Taming Hall. The Earth Spirit Fruit trees cultivated by the sect are not enough for everyone to share, so they need to purchase them from Luofeng Valley every year.

Even so, it cannot meet everyone's needs.

“I helped Senior Sister Liu cultivate the Earth Spirit Fruit Tree. Currently, there are only four of them, and they are of the highest quality.

I will plant a few more in a few years, but not many. The Earth Spirit Fruit Tree consumes much more earth spiritual energy than other spiritual trees.

Senior brothers and sisters, if you want to see it, please follow me."

Ji An has surveyed the spiritual vein nodes. The concentration of spiritual energy there has not yet reached the second level, and cannot supply too many earth spirit fruit trees. It will take a few years for the situation to improve.

He has ordered Jinmao to survey whether there are new spiritual vein nodes underground. Otherwise, once the second-level earth spirit fruit trees are cultivated, the number of spiritual trees must be reduced.

The speed at which high-level spiritual trees absorb and exhale spiritual energy is comparable to that of high-level cultivators.

Fortunately, he had several perfect levels of planting spells, otherwise the spiritual veins of Chiyan Peak would not be able to support so many spiritual trees to absorb and exhale spiritual energy, and would inevitably cause degeneration.

Whenever a second-level spiritual tree is cultivated, the number of spiritual trees must be actively reduced.

Shadows swayed in the corridor of the underground cave, and the three of them walked deep into the ground.

Now that he was there, Ji An released the Thick Earth Returning Origin Mantra. Warm yellow spiritual light surrounded the spiritual tree. Some of it was directly absorbed by the spiritual tree, and the rest slowly seeped into the soil and rocks.

The nourishing, inclusive and profound Dharma spirit permeated the air. The shadow of the tree seemed to sway, and the spots on the bark shone like yellow stars.

Li Minghui sighed:

"These earth spirit fruit trees are so well cultivated."
