Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 227 Yunding Jade Tree Seeds
“This tea tastes very special!”

Huang Feihu praised. He stared at the tea and examined it carefully. He found that in addition to the Yunding Silver Tea, there were also a few white tea leaves.

There are golden lines on the leaves, which are particularly eye-catching.

"What kind of tea is this white tea?"

He had never seen this kind of tea before, and thought it must be a rare item obtained by his uncle.

Xia Yulian explained:

“This is Jade Dew Golden Bud Tea, produced from a Youyue Cangyu tree planted by my uncle.

Because tea trees grow slowly, the leaves haven't grown luxuriantly in the past few years, and the tea leaves produced are scarce."

"It's actually Jade Dew Golden Bud Tea! What's the grade of tea trees now?"

Huang Feihu exclaimed in surprise. He had certainly heard of this famous tea. If he could take this spiritual tea during the Qi Refining Stage, he would surely be able to pass the spiritual barrier smoothly and would not fail in building his foundation.

"The ultimate level was reached last night."

"Tsk tsk, you guys are really lucky."

Huang Feihu was shocked and looked at several Qi Refining disciples with envy.

Based on his understanding of Senior Brother Ji, these disciples will definitely benefit from it.

Huang Xuan cupped his hands and said solemnly:

"We are truly fortunate to be able to cultivate at Scarlet Flame Peak. We will never forget the support and support given to us by our uncle-master."

Since entering Chiyan Peak, he and Li Cheng's path of cultivation has been smooth and bright.

The person they should thank the most is Uncle Ji. They have benefited a lot from following this kind senior.

Secondly, they should thank Uncle Huang, whose choice changed their fate.

For most disciples, being able to build a foundation is a great honor.

They had already exchanged for the Foundation Establishment Pill early on, and they only needed to get the pill to make the leap to success.

Huang Feihu nodded with satisfaction, a smile on his face:

"You have been given this opportunity because your performance was good enough."

A few of them started chatting. Huang Feihu asked about his senior brother's daily routine, and then everyone recalled the little things in their previous life together. The atmosphere was harmonious.

Ji An finished making the talisman and walked out of the stone house. He came to the crowd and everyone stood up and saluted.

"Everyone sit down and talk."

After taking his seat, he took out a few jade bottles and said:

“Fei Hu, Huang Xuan, and Li Cheng, each of you takes two jade bottles.

There is one red bottle and one yellow bottle, each containing a second-level Spirit Peach Seed and Earth Spirit Fruit Tree Seed."

He once promised to give these people second-level spiritual seeds, and now he has fulfilled his promise.

After a pause, Ji An continued:

“It’s best to plant Picanya by cuttings. When Feihu leaves, you can cut off a few second-level branches.

By the way, dig up a few more bamboo shoots of the Black Leaf Sword Bamboo.

When I have suitable second-level seeds in the future, I will give you a few as well."

He is very generous. The prosperity of Chiyan Peak today is largely due to his skills that far surpass those of other spiritual farmers.

Therefore, he never regarded other spiritual farmers as competitors.

Ji An now gradually understood that even if other people also practiced their spells to perfection, the effect of his spells would be stronger.

The stone turtle and many low-grade Taoist seeds in his body are his greatest confidence.

As his cultivation improves, when he breaks through to the Chaoyuan stage, the lower-grade Dao seeds should be able to continue to improve.

"Thank you, senior brother!"

"Thank you, Uncle Master!"

Several people smiled happily and took away their things.

Huang Feihu was even happier. After he settled in the cave, he wanted to ask his senior brother for some black-leaf sword bamboo.

However, thinking that the favor fades every time it is used, I decided to wait a few years until more spiritual fields are upgraded to the first-class quality before making any plans.

He has been very busy in recent years and has rarely been out and about. It would be unreasonable for him to suddenly come to ask for spiritual plants.

Senior brother can give it, but he can’t take it.

Ji An nodded slightly and said with a smile:
"Senior Brother Liu Yu gave me a Youyue Cangyu Tree. If the spirit tree can produce seeds one day, I will also give you a few."

It is difficult to keep the Youyue Cangyu tree alive through cuttings or root cuttings, it can only be grown through tree seeds.

But for a tea tree to produce seeds, it needs to be at least three or four hundred years old, so it is still too early.

He roughly estimated that it would take about seventy or eighty years.

"We are waiting for good news from our senior brother."

Huang Feihu smiled and took this opportunity to ask questions about practicing magic.

Ji An answered patiently and finally asked:
"What's your current level of Thick Earth Technique?"

"Perfect level."

"In the future, practice the Thick Earth Art frequently to understand its divine meaning. If you can practice it to perfection, it may help you comprehend the Thick Earth Returning Origin Mantra more quickly."

Huang Feihu seemed to be thinking about something and asked:

"Brother, according to you, when I practice the Small Cloud Rain Technique to perfection, it will also be very helpful for me to comprehend the Spring Breeze and Rain Technique?"

Huang Xuan and Li Cheng also pricked up their ears, waiting for their uncle's answer.

"I think so, but I'm not entirely sure."

What Ji An said was based on his experience, and I don’t know whether it can be applied to others.

He possessed the Stone Turtle, and when his Small Cloud and Rain Technique reached its ultimate level, it was unknown whether he first comprehended the Dharma's meaning and then obtained the Guishui Dao Seed, or whether he obtained the Dao Seed first and then comprehended the Dharma's meaning.

Anyway, this method works for him.

According to his guess, it should also be applicable to other people, but he is not sure how effective it is.

He was worried that if he spoke too confidently and the other party did not benefit significantly, he would be misleading.

Huang Feihu bowed solemnly and said with a smile:
"What Senior Brother said must have a basis. After I return, I will make time to practice the Thick Earth Technique.

I hope my understanding is high enough to comprehend the divine will within this spell."

If one's comprehension does not reach a certain level, the limit of being able to practice magic is perfection.

To comprehend God's will, one needs not only hard work but also a flash of inspiration.

“Where you spend your time and energy, there you will reap the rewards.

It’s just that sometimes the gains are so small that they can’t be noticed.”

Ji An smiled and said that others did not have the stone turtle and could not know his status in real time.

If there is no obvious progress for a long time, people are likely to give up.

This is the reason why those who take a hundred steps are halfway there.

What many people lack is persistence before things succeed.

"Thank you for your teachings, Senior Brother," Huang Feihu stood up and said:

"I heard that Senior Brother is out practicing magic this afternoon, so I won't waste his precious time here."

"Then I won't keep you here any longer, Junior Brother."

Ji An didn't pretend to be polite. He ordered:

"Huang Xuan, Li Cheng, you two accompany Fei Hu to cut some branches and dig up two bamboo shoots from the Black Leaf Sword Bamboo.

Bamboo shoots are best when they are more than five inches and less than one foot long, as they are easier to survive.

Yuhan, please give your junior brother a jar of Jade Dew Golden Buds. This tea is too rare, and it is only of the highest quality, so I didn't give it to your junior brother.

But in another six months, you will have a treat.”

This is the experience gained from many years of transplanting bamboo shoots.

"Yes, sir," Huang Xuan and the other man accepted the order.

Ji An nodded and summoned the shuttle:

"Junior brother, see you later!" Huang Feihu took out the flying boat and chanted some magic words, and the flying boat grew bigger against the wind.

"I'm on the flying boat. I haven't been back for a long time. The prosperity of Scarlet Flame Peak is even greater than before.

You two, when I came here, I saw many second-level spiritual plants. Please be my guides and introduce the number of spiritual plants to me so that I can open my eyes."

Li Cheng smiled and said:

"Let me steer the flying boat, and let Huang Xuan explain it to Master Uncle.

"Master-uncle upgraded 50 mu of second-grade medium-quality spiritual farm, and now the number of second-grade spiritual plants is jaw-dropping."

The three of them boarded the flying boat and slowly sailed towards the Biluo forest.

Huang Xuan pointed to the spiritual field below with pride and said,
“Master uncle planted two mu of Canglong trees, a total of fifty trees.

A few months ago, several second-level spiritual trees were cut down, and now there are only twelve second-level Canglong trees left."

"One hundred and sixty second-level emerald-leaf mulberry trees, and one hundred and fifteen second-level jade-leaf trees.

Thanks to the generous supply of mulberry leaves and spiritual fruits from Master Uncle, Elder He Yuhan of the Beast Control Hall cultivated a five-colored deer at the Chaoyuan stage."

Huang Feihu took a deep breath. He had never dreamed of such a good thing as having a Chaoyuan-level beastmaster.

The flying boat hovered over the Biluo forest. Huang Feihu flew down on the wind and cut off a bundle of branches of second-level spiritual plants. He released the Bimu Huasheng Gong to increase their vitality and reduce the loss of their vitality.

The flying boat continued to fly around the mountain, and Huang Xuan continued to introduce:

“The number of second-level red cloud pines has not increased much, and there are only eighty-one at present.

There's no other way. The spiritual vein node here is too small, so I can only build three acres of second-grade medium-quality spiritual fields."

After a while, the flying boat arrived above the Xuanye Sword Bamboo.

“Currently, there are 72 second-level copper-veined mulberry trees and 36 second-level black-leaf sword bamboo trees.

These second-level gold leaves have already been reserved by weapon refiners."

Huang Feihu's eyes flashed with passion, and he sighed inwardly:
"These sword bamboos are truly a cash cow. I wonder when I'll be able to cultivate a second-tier spiritual plant."

Cultivating a second-level spiritual plant is considered a success and can be called a high-level spiritual farmer, with a high status.

He and Huang Xuan landed in the sword bamboo forest and carefully dug out suitable bamboo shoots.

Huang Feihu wrapped the bamboo shoots tightly with a soul-sealing talisman, sent the two Qi-refining disciples to the cold pond, and left quickly.

Ji An practiced magic in the wasteland. The spiritual valley took root and sprouted, then turned into a grass puppet, and finally the green stems and leaves turned into a dead yellow.

Watching Linggu constantly experiencing life and death, growth and decay, he vaguely felt that he seemed to have grasped something.

Linggu takes root in the earth, sprouts, and life emerges from the dormant state of seeds and begins to grow vigorously.

Then the vitality is drained away by the fear of everything, burning life to stimulate all potential.

When the last bit of energy is drained away, life comes to an end.

How can the Way of Jia Wood be combined with the Way of Yi Wood to form a complete Way of Wood?

At this time, he remembered the theory of yin and yang, Jia wood is yang wood, and Yi wood is yin wood.

The Yang wood grows vigorously and continuously rises upward, able to absorb more of the sun's spiritual energy.

Yi wood is short and will rely on Jia wood to survive, and is closer to the yin energy of the earth.

Yang represents vitality, Yin represents extinction, Yang gives birth and Yin dies?

'No, that explanation doesn't make sense.'

Ji An shook his head. He felt that he was only a little bit away from breaking through that layer of window paper and fell into deep thought.

When he came to his senses, the sky had completely darkened, and the sky was dotted with stars, shining brightly.

"The time has not come yet, go back."

Ji An smiled carefreely, his mind sinking into his dantian.

[Spell: See enemies everywhere (51%→52%)

Quicksand (63% → 64% full)

He summoned the flying shuttle and returned to Scarlet Flame Peak.

By the cold pond, the lights are bright, and someone is waiting for his return.

The shuttle slowly landed, Huang Xuan stepped forward, bowed and said:

"Uncle Master, Uncle Master Huang cut off more than forty thumb-thick, two-foot-long branches from the second-level Biluo tree."

Ji An nodded slightly:

"I see."

More than forty two-foot-long branches can plant about two acres of spiritual fields.

He turned around and said:

"Yuhan, dinner is ready. I'm a little hungry."

"Uncle Master, wait a moment. The spiritual food is a little cold. Yu Lian just took it to the kitchen to heat it up. I'll go see if there's anything I can help with."

Xia Yuhan walked quickly towards the kitchen, her light blue skirt swaying with her body.

A silver communication sword flew over the cold pond, flashing with light in front of Ji An and making a buzzing sound.

He raised his hand, grabbed the talisman sword, and read the information inside.

Soon, Xia Yuhan and her sister brought out the spiritual food.

Ji An said:

"Senior Sister Liu will be visiting Chiyan Peak tomorrow, so please prepare something richer for lunch."

Xia Yulian said:
"Okay, Luoyan Mountain will slaughter a Savage Fire Bull in the early stages of foundation building tomorrow morning. I'll go buy some fresh meat."

She is the one who usually buys the ingredients on weekdays.

If there are any high-end ingredients for sale, the disciples of the Beast Taming Hall will inform her in advance.

Chiyan Peak is a big spender and is willing to spend spirit stones to buy it, so it is quite popular in the Beast Taming Palace.

"Buy some more beef shanks and some beef spine for soup."

Ji An said that it is not often eaten by monster beasts in the foundation-building stage.

He paused and then said:

"I almost forgot one thing. Tell Palace Master Wu Yan that in two months, three second-level Biluo fruits will mature on Chiyan Peak.

Ask how many fruits should be left for him."

He remembered that Wu Yan once said that he would use second-level spiritual fruits to feed the green deer. Now that the five-colored deer has broken through the Chaoyuan period, he has to find a new stable buyer for his spiritual fruits.

At noon, Liu Suyun slowed down the shuttle and landed on a wasteland. The Red Flame Peak was already in sight.

She pinched her fingers to put away the flying shuttle, and then took out a colorful flying carpet.

This is her most impressive flying magic weapon. Except for its slow speed, it is absolutely perfect.

Flying in the air, it looks like a floating rainbow.

This time she calculated the time and arrived just in time. Junior Brother Ji must have finished his training by then.

Liu Suyun offered a flying carpet. This magical instrument woven with spiritual silk would create a 'special effect' of rippling water when flying, which was very dynamic.

After the flying carpet entered the Red Flame Peak, it quickly aroused the admiration of Xia Yuhan and her sister.

They had seen it once, but were still captivated by the beautiful appearance of the magic weapon.

Xia Yuhan said loudly:
"Uncle Liu's flying magic weapon is the most beautiful magic weapon I have ever seen, bar none."

Ji An curled his lips and said:

"You should have seen my Senior Brother Liu Yu's Fiery Golden Wheel. It's even more fantastical than a flying carpet."

The 'special effects' when the Fiery Golden Wheel flew away were a level higher than those of the flying carpet.

"Uncle Master, I'm talking about a magical weapon. The Blazing Golden Wheel is a spiritual weapon, so the materials are very different."

Xia Yuhan played word games. The light and shadow effects of spiritual weapons were indeed better, but she was afraid she would never be able to afford it in her lifetime.

Flying carpets are different. She feels that she should have a chance to buy one.

Liu Suyun controlled the flying carpet to land and jumped down gracefully.

She took out a palm-sized wooden box and said, as if to take credit:
"Junior brother, I have fulfilled my mission and obtained two seeds from the second-level, mid-grade Cloudtop Jade Tree."
