Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 181 Liangqiu Foundation Building
Ji An grinned, it was hard to answer that question.

If other spiritual farmers knew my current level of magic, they would be ashamed and unable to face anyone.

Even those monks from the Law Enforcement Hall would fall into silence when they learned the level of my fighting magic.

Liu Suyun did not continue the topic. She pointed to the new tunnel in the cave and asked:

"What is this for?"

Obvious claw marks could be seen at the entrance of the cave and on the rock walls inside. She compared the claw marks and found that they should be the marks left by the spirit-seeking rat.

Ji An replied:
"This is another spiritual vein node we've surveyed. We're planning to plant new earth spirit fruit trees there. Would you like to take a look?"

Currently, this spiritual vein node can only plant three or four more spiritual trees, so new areas must be developed.

"Okay."

"Senior sister, please follow me. Be careful not to get scratched by the rock wall."

Ji An walked in front. The tunnel was only wide enough for one person to pass through, and the rock wall retained many protruding edges and corners.

He had no part in the excavation of this tunnel; it was all Golden Hair's work, and it had many flaws.

Generally speaking, the tunnel slopes downward, and despite being inlaid with several luminous pearls, the light is still very dim.

After walking about thirty or forty feet, they came to a large cave with three luminous pearls inlaid on the top. The spiritual energy here was slightly richer than the previous cave.

Ji An said:

"This node is smaller than the previous one. The rock gets harder as we go down. Exploration can only go so far."

If you dig deeper, you will dig up the evil energy underground, and the roots will not be suitable for the growth of spiritual plants.

Only one ventilation hole was dug at this node, and the air was slightly polluted.

Liu Suyun looked around and nodded slightly.
"Very good, we are lucky to find a spiritual vein node without a natural cave.

Junior Brother, how many Earth Spirit Fruit trees are you planning to plant?"

"Five or six at most. The nodes are too small, and planting too many will affect the main spiritual vein."

Ji An replied that he made the estimate based on the assumption that all the spirit trees reached the second-level quality.

"After the new spirit tree is cultivated to the ultimate level, I will also order fruits. Junior brother, remember to give me a share."

"I got the Earth Spirit Fruit seeds from my senior sister. Under the same conditions, you have the priority to purchase them."

Liu Suyun smiled:
"Thank you in advance."

three days later.

After Ji An selected the best-quality Earth Spirit Fruit, he handed over the other fruits.

"Senior Sister, I've chosen it. Please click on the quantity."

Liu Suyun looked at the boxes of spiritual fruits and rubbed her hands subconsciously. She had never been so rich before.

“There are 157 Earth Spirit Fruits in total. Excluding the 120 that belong to me, I need to pay the Spirit Stones for 37 fruits.

Each one costs 80 spirit stones, for a total of 2960 spirit stones, let’s calculate it as .

Five kilograms of top-grade spider silk, four hundred spirit stones per kilogram, so I need to pay my junior brother a total of five thousand spirit stones."

She quickly calculated in her mind and took out fifty medium-grade spirit stones.

Ji An put away the spirit stones, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. This amount of spirit stones was completely extra money, and only required a little bit of mana.

As the spirit tree grows older, the number of fruits it bears will only increase.

After the transaction was completed, Liu Suyun stood up and said with a charming smile:

"I'm leaving now. I'm afraid the little treasures in Pansi Cave are starving."

She couldn't wait to return to Yunmeng Peak and bring delicious spiritual fruits to the golden spiders.

The population of golden-spotted spiders has expanded. With the help of top-grade earth spirit fruit, the strongest ones are selected and trained intensively. Having one more spider that can produce second-level spirit silk will bring huge profits.

Ji An grinned, he felt that this senior sister had a really strong taste.

"Sister, wait a moment. Yuhan, go get five pounds of second-grade pine nuts."

The pine cones of the second-level red cloud pine were harvested first, and Du Huaiyuan has already started brewing second-level pine nut wine.

There is no need to dry it in the sun. The cultivators have plenty of ways to dry it quickly. They fried 500 kilograms of it and used it as a high-end gift.

Liu Suyun blinked:

"I always let my junior brother spend money."

Two months later, the Canglong wood had grown to about ten feet tall, and the winemaking work at Chiyan Peak was nearing completion.

Ji An used the Qingmu Changchun Gong to refine the spiritual objects. Many green roots spread out from the palm of his hand, wrapping the Xuanhuang soil and Canglong wood in his palm.

As the technique was practiced, the spiritual object lost its color and gradually turned into ordinary yellow earth. The Canglong wood seemed to have experienced thousands of years of wind and frost and turned into rotten wood.

In front of him was a white jade bowl the size of a palm and two inches deep. The jade water that was originally full of green and spiritual energy had turned into clear water, and no spirituality could be seen anymore.

Ji An finished his training, and the emerald color in his eyes was a little more intense than usual.

"Finally, there's a result."

He stood up and stretched out his arms.

He cut down a second-level Qingling bamboo. These days he has been looking for which wood-type spiritual object is more suitable for him to refine and verify whether there is any difference.

After careful comparison, he found that when refining the Canglong wood, his spiritual sensation was the most comfortable, followed by the Qingling bamboo, and he had no feeling about the Qingfeng wood.

From now on, he will have to work hard to cultivate the Canglong wood.

He walked back to the stone house, where Liang Qiu and Huang Feihu were already waiting.

"Master, I've received news that we can go to the General Affairs Hall to collect the Foundation Establishment Pill. I'd like to ask for leave from you today."

"That's good. You can go after you have breakfast."

Ji An patted their shoulders and continued:
"After getting the foundation-building pill, come back and adjust your condition before you can build your foundation."

"Thank you for your care over the years, uncle."

“It’s not about favoritism, it’s about mutual benefit.

After the two Daoists successfully establish their foundations, let's get drunk together. "What good news is there to celebrate that you didn't tell me?"

Du Huaiyuan walked out of the winery and happened to hear the second half of the sentence.

Ji An briefly explained the situation between Huang Feihu and the other man, and said with a smile:
"Brother is indispensable!"

After breakfast, Ji An handed over the shuttle and said:
"Go back quickly."

"Thank you, uncle-master," Liang Qiu took the shuttle and left with Huang Feihu.

Du Huaiyuan unscrewed the wine gourd, took a sip of wine, and a smile appeared on his face.

Ever since he got the gourd magic weapon, he would always take a few sips of it whenever he had nothing to do.

"Junior brother, all the pine nuts have been brewed into spirit wine and sealed in jars. This year's second-grade pine nut wine weighs 600 kilograms, and the top-grade spirit wine weighs 36,000 kilograms."

Ji An nodded slightly and said:

"Thank you for your hard work, Senior Brother. The next step is to sell. Do you have any connections?"

The pine wine brewed in previous years has been stored in the cellar for a long enough time that it can be exported, and there is not much empty space in the warehouse.

Du Huaiyuan hurriedly shook his head and said with a wry smile:

"In the past, I was just doing small business, brewing a few thousand kilograms of spirit wine a year at most. The wine lovers I knew could digest it, so I didn't have to worry about sales at all.

Do I also need help from my junior brother for my portion of the spirit wine?"

He likes brewing wine and drinking wine, but he has no interest in selling wine.

Ji An shook his head. He was not interested in business. With immortality to pursue, running a business was a waste of time.

He immediately thought of the best agent, Wei Songnian. They had worked together for many years and the other party was steady and not greedy.

He also investigated privately and found that the other party offered sufficient discounts on the price.

Ji An said to the maid next to her:

"Yuhan, tell Huang Xuan to go to Qingzhu Valley and see if Junior Brother Wei is in the sect.

If he is, invite him to come over.”

"Okay," the maid agreed and walked out of the stone house.

"Once the spiritual wine starts selling, I'll have enough spiritual stones to buy pills."

Du Huaiyuan showed joy on his face. He had lived a rather poor life in recent years and had never had enough elixirs.

He had only gotten better at refining foundation-building pills for the sect in the past two years, but his supply of pills had not yet reached saturation.

The next day.

In the evening, the mist is gorgeous and everything is painted with bloody romance.

Liang Qiu cupped his hands and said with a firm gaze:
"Uncle Master, I'm ready. All preparations are complete. I'll start building my foundation tonight!"

Huang Feihu bowed:
"Same here. This is a second-level spiritual vein. We can build our foundation at the same time if we are farther away."

Ji An nodded slightly and said:
"Since you've made up your mind, go all out. Tomorrow at noon, we'll have a drink and chat happily."

Du Huaiyuan smiled and said:
"Come quickly tomorrow."

He couldn't wait to drink the wine.

The moonlight was beautiful. Liang Qiu stayed in the stone house beside the cold pond, and Huang Feihu was at the entrance of the underground cave. Both of them began to build the foundation together.

Xia Yuhan and her sister were guarding the cold pond, while Huang Xuan and Li Cheng were keeping watch outside the cave.

Ji An controlled the shuttle and performed his compulsory nightly lesson of casting a spell for the spirit tree.

According to experience, the breakthrough in foundation building will not be seen until the next morning.

In the mulberry field, a yellow spiritual light flashed, a green light rain fell, and then a huge white fog blocked the moonlight.

There was a glimmer of light in the mist, and the spiritual rain fell down, knocking on the mulberry leaves and playing a cheerful song.

The air is filled with a vigorous, moist and nourishing scent, and all the trees are full of vitality.

At the hour of Mao, Ji An woke up from his sleep. When he walked out of the cave, he saw the waning moon setting over the western hills and the starlight became dim.

He released the wind control technique and flew down the mountain. He found that the two people who had broken through the foundation-building stage were all in good condition, so he went to Sangtian to practice with peace of mind.

The location he chose was far away from the cold pond to ensure that it would not affect Liang Qiu.

When he finished his training, it was already bright in the sky. Golden red mist was rising from the top of Chiyan Peak, creating a magnificent scene.

Ji An returned to the stone house. At this time, there was no spiritual energy fluctuation outside Liang Qiu's house. Huang Xuan and others looked unhappy.

He was secretly shocked and asked:

"What's going on with the two of them now?"

Whether the foundation building is successful or not should have a result.

Huang Xuan lowered his head and said with difficulty:

"Reporting to Uncle Master, Senior Brother Liang successfully established his foundation, but Senior Brother Huang failed."

Even if you have the foundation-building pill, it doesn't mean you will be able to successfully build the foundation.

One foundation-building pill would drain the wealth of most Qi-refining cultivators, and only a very small number of ordinary disciples could obtain a second foundation-building pill.

"How's the situation with Flying Tiger?"

"When Senior Brother Huang came out, his face was covered in blood and his steps were unsteady. Senior Uncle Du went in to check on him."

As they were talking, Du Huaiyuan came out.

Ji An went up to him and whispered:

"Brother, how is Feihu doing? Have you found the reason for his failure?"

Du Huaiyuan grinned:
"The foundation-building pill protected my heart meridians. My physical injuries aren't serious, they just look miserable. I'll be fine after a few months of recuperation.

The main thing is that the spiritual consciousness is damaged, and it needs to recover slowly, which may take two to three years at the fastest and four to five years at the slowest.

Based on what he said, I analyzed that the reason for the failure was that the spiritual power was not strong enough."
