Chapter 189 Good things come in pairs
the next day.

Ji An came to the underground cave and found that the condition of the soul-nourishing tree had not improved at all and was still wilted.

He extended his spiritual sense deep into the soil, and when he found that the spiritual tree had grown some new roots, he felt relieved.

As long as the transplanted spiritual tree can take root, it is half successful.

"Squeak."

The golden retriever barked twice ingratiatingly, pointed at the soul-nourishing tree, and then made a gesture of sleeping peacefully.

It slept very comfortably last night.

Ji An smiled, thought for a moment, and said:

“From now on, every ten days, you must capture a live fire-toothed rabbit and a red-tailed squirrel, kill them here, and bury them here.

Be careful to stay away from the roots of the black tree."

"Squeak."

The golden retriever nodded obediently. It often went out hunting and it would be a good idea to catch a monster while hunting.

The soul-nourishing tree can nourish the spirit, and it is said that the branches of high-level spiritual trees can even house souls.

The spirit and soul of the monster beast of a low-level cultivator are completely dependent on the physical body. After death, the spirit and soul leave the body and can be blown away by a gust of wind.

If it sees the scorching sun, it will be like a snowflake falling into hot water and will melt in an instant.

The souls of high-level cultivators are much stronger and can withstand strong winds. After successful cultivation, they can even appear in broad daylight without fear of being burned by the sun.

Therefore, Ji An believed that the spirit of the monster might be able to nourish the spiritual tree.

However, he did not hold out hope, because there was no rumor that the Soul-Nourishing Tree was an evil tree that absorbed souls.

But there is no doubt that the body of the monster has a certain effect on the soul-nourishing tree.

Ji An chanted the Thick Earth Return to Origin Mantra, and the warm spiritual light enveloped the Soul-Nourishing Tree and the Earth Spirit Fruit Tree, nourishing the profound Dharma power and spreading.

The corpses buried here can decompose at an extremely fast speed under the effect of the Thick Earth Returning to Origin Curse.

In a few days, the flesh and blood will turn into fertile soil, and the bones will dissolve in ten days or half a month.

The Fire-Tooth Rabbit and the Red-Tailed Squirrel are only demon beasts in the early stage of Qi Refining, so their corpses will decompose even faster.

Ji An walked out of the cave and returned to the cold pond.

The Tianyuan pear changes every day. After just a few days, it grows to the size of a goose egg.

When the pear grows to the size of a fist, it will gradually stop growing, and the nutrients will be input into the flesh to increase its spiritual energy.

He looked at the blueberry-colored fruit and smiled:

"Yuhan Yulian, have you ever counted how many pears we've harvested this year?"

"Of course I counted them. There are 312 in total."

"Sister, you're wrong. I counted 314."

"My sister must have counted wrongly."

"Why didn't my sister count wrongly?"

Both of them said they were not wrong and started arguing with each other.

Huang Xuan next to him didn't say anything. When counting fruits, there is a high probability that the number will be wrong.

Ji An watched the two mature and charming female cultivators quarreling and left with a smile.

There are more than 300 fruits, and familiar monks can send a few to them. They can keep some for themselves and sell the rest to alchemists.

Tianyuan Pear is suitable for refining water-based elixirs. If Senior Brother Du buys it, he can give him less of the profit from the spiritual wine.

Three months later.

The Tianyuan Pears on the Red Flame Peak are ripe. With the cooperation of the second-level spiritual veins and the great perfection-level planting spells, the ripening period of the spiritual fruit has been greatly shortened.

"Gah!"

A gray-feathered sand goose flew over, calling flatteringly. It had been coveting these spiritual fruits for a long time, but did not dare to eat them secretly.

But if it comes to ask for it openly, the owner will give it a taste.

Ji An used his object control technique to pick a Tianyuan pear and threw it to Yu Shou.

The sand goose picked it up in its beak and flew to the other side of the cold pond.

Huang Xuan put the last fruit into the basket and said with a smile:
"Master, including the one I just gave to Sha Yan, there are a total of 318 spiritual fruits. Yu Han and the others have counted them many times, but they have never gotten it right, haha."

Xia Yuhan coughed lightly and said:
"It's normal that the number is not accurate because of the leaves blocking the view!"

Xia Yulian blinked:

"My numbers are closer to the truth than my sister's."

"Yes, you are strong, you are amazing."

The two sisters started their daily bickering today, neither of them giving in.

"Okay, stop arguing. Go wash some fruit, one for each of us."

Ji An interrupted them.

"Yes," the two sisters responded gently, with joy flashing in their eyes.

Huang Xuan and Li Cheng also showed excitement in their eyes. For them, disciples in the Qi Refining Stage, the top-grade fruit was much more effective than elixirs.

Ji An took out a piece of paper with names written on it and a shuttle, and continued to instruct:

"Huang Xuan, Li Cheng, I've made a list. Go out tomorrow and give each person four Tianyuan Pears.

I'll lend you the shuttle. Please plan your routes and try to complete the delivery within the same day."

Friends may be out on missions and not in the cave, but there must be a maid to guard the door.

Huang Xuan reached out and took the shuttle and the paper: "As you wish."

The two sisters washed the fruits and brought them over. Ji An took out one, opened his mouth and took a bite. He immediately felt the rich fragrance between his lips and teeth, with a hint of coolness.

Tianyuan pear is cold in nature and has the effect of clearing away heat while nourishing the internal organs.

It is said that the group of cultivators in Yuanhe Mountain like to eat Tianyuan Pear very much.

Physical cultivation focuses on refining the body's energy and blood. During practice, the blood in the whole body feels like it is boiling, which puts a heavy burden on the internal organs in the long run.

After finishing the training and waiting for the body to calm down, take a Tianyuan Pear to recover faster.

"That's right! After you finish eating, hurry up and refine it."

Ji An smiled and said that the fruit was juicy and had little pulp, and contained more spiritual energy than he had expected.

After saying that, he turned and left, flying to the mulberry field to practice Qingmu Changchun Gong.

The sun was shining brightly, but he felt that the golden fire spirit was much weaker than usual.

Huang Xuan grabbed the fruit, took a small bite, and exhaled white mist. "That's awesome!"

He felt the rich spiritual energy rising in his stomach and began to eat quickly.

As soon as you take the first bite of the spiritual fruit, the spiritual energy starts to dissipate, so you have to finish it quickly.

The spiritual energy of some spiritual fruits dissipates very quickly, so when taking them, you need to swallow them whole and then spit out the core.

When he finished eating, others saw a layer of white frost on his eyebrows and temples, which was because the spiritual fruit was too cold.

Huang Xuan was trembling all over, and immediately sat down cross-legged to practice his skills and refine them.

For cultivators, the higher the level of spiritual fruit, the better it is not. If low-level cultivators consume high-level spiritual fruit, they may be blown up by the spiritual energy contained in the fruit, and their fate will be similar to that of an exploding tomato.

A loud "bang" is the best ending.

The top-grade spiritual fruit can still be used by these disciples in the late stage of Qi training, otherwise Ji An would not give it to them.

Only two quarters of an hour later, Ji An had completely refined the spiritual fruit. Now the refining speed of Qingmu Changchun Gong was notoriously fast.

He returned to the cold pond and found several Qi Refining disciples sitting cross-legged at a stone table, refining spiritual fruits, with water marks on their temples.

Judging from his previous experience, these disciples are bound to waste a lot of spiritual energy, and things will get better only when they reach the ninth level of Qi Refining.

For anything, the stronger the better, the best is just the right amount.

Ji An flew to the entrance of the cave and began to practice Gengjin Finger.

This piece of rock looks like honeycomb coal, with many holes in it.

Rays of golden light were everywhere, and an unparalleled sharp aura filled the air. The temperature of the air seemed to have dropped a bit.

After an unknown amount of time, Ji An suddenly discovered that the spell had become different.

The attack range, which was originally only three meters, has now reached five meters, and the power has also increased, while the mana consumption has also decreased.

"Hehe, spells at the Great Perfection level are considered real spells."

Without having to guess, Ji An knew that Geng Jinzhi had already accomplished his mission.

He narrowed his eyes, sank his mind into his dantian, and connected with the stone turtle.

[Spell: Gengjin Finger (99%→100%)

Five-Direction Spiritual Condensation Technique (19% complete)

Exploding Fireball (88% complete)

Rejuvenation (7% complete)

Water Control Technique (49% complete)

Fire Control Technique (38% complete)

Entanglement (92% success rate).

The words written by Geng Jinzhi gradually faded and finally disappeared.

In the Taiyuan acupoint, the Gengjin Dao seed became slightly brighter.

'Which lucky person should I choose as the next target for the research?' Ji An pondered.

Because the essence needs to be extracted every day, the Five Directions Spirit Extraction Technique is always used.

You need to add earth fire to the purple fire gourd every few days. There is no need to rush to practice the fire control technique to the great perfection level, you can improve it by the way.

In the end, he stopped hesitating and chose Exploding Fireball, ready to seize the time to send away this spell that was closest to the great perfection level.

"Refine the spiritual power and enhance the explosive fireball."

Ji An's consciousness entered the mysterious space of the stone turtle and placed himself on the Li position. The ground under his feet turned red, like a sea of ​​fire, with a scorching breath.

When practicing spells, the fireball could turn into an ellipsoid according to his wishes, and its flight path also had a slight arc.

When the remaining spiritual energy is no longer sufficient to be refined, the spiritual consciousness returns to the body.

[Spell: Explosive Fireball (Full 88% → 89%)]

Ji An pinched his fingers and activated a bright yellow flat fireball, with small wings appearing on both sides of the fireball.

"boom!"

The rocks shattered and flames rained down like blooming fireworks.

When the spells in the foundation-building period reach the perfect level, the improvement brought by refining spiritual inspiration slows down.

The most important function of inspiration should be to enable him to quickly improve his spells to a relatively high level, greatly shortening the growth period.

After he broke through to the foundation-building stage, he could use the perfect level of Thick Earth Returning to Origin Mantra and Spring Breeze Transforming Rain Mantra, which made it easy for him to plant spiritual trees.

The primitive accumulation stage of capital is the most difficult, but his ingenuity makes him not need the primitive accumulation stage, which is the most enviable thing.

At the hour of Mao, when the most diligent birds had not yet left their nests, Ji An walked out of the cave and flew from the mountainside to the cold pond.

From a distance, he noticed that the branches and leaves of the Biluo tree were shining with emerald green light and were waving to him.

"Yes you can!"

Ji An flew to the Biluo Forest with joy and found a second spiritual tree that was shining with spiritual light.

"Good things come in pairs, that's how they should come!"

Ji An laughed loudly, placed his hand on the second-level Biluo tree, and input mana into it.

The rustling of the leaves of the sacred tree conveys a joyful mood.

The value of the second-level Biluo tree is greater than that of the Feiye mulberry tree. He activated two communication swords without hesitation and informed Ye Changqing and Li Minghui of the good news respectively.

After calming down, Ji An flew to Sangtian, where the cold pond was closer and the effect of practicing the technique would be better.

He hovered above the mulberry field and began to count the "stars".

"One, two, three, eight, nine, and one more!"

Ji An bared his teeth, "Hey hey! What good day is today?!"

Overnight, not only did two second-level jasper trees appear, but there was also a second-level emerald leaf mulberry tree.

In three months, six more second-level spiritual mulberry trees were produced. If this pace is maintained, Chiyan Peak will be able to provide enough mulberry leaves and green lotus fruits for Uncle He.

After a moment, Ji An shook his head vigorously to dispel the daydream in his mind.

He found a suitable area and sat down cross-legged, took out the Canglong wood, Xuanhuang soil and Bi Bo Yu Shui respectively, closed his eyes and calmed his mind.

After his mind was clear of all thoughts and he entered a state of emptiness, Ji An began to practice Qingmu Changchun Gong.

Three kinds of spiritual light, green, yellow, and transparent as water, rose from the mulberry trees, the earth, and the cold pond respectively, surrounding him happily.

The light and shadow danced with his breathing, like a beautiful dream.
