Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 373 Reward
Ji An used the earth escape technique and came to the underground cave.

The golden retriever is not here. He must have slipped out to find food.

Moonlight shone in through the passage, bathing the soul-nourishing tree in the brightness, its leaves gleaming with a deep light.

The second-grade, top-grade Earth Spirit Fruit Tree exudes a jade-colored glow, which matches the moonlight, and is quiet and elegant.

The soul-nourishing tree is now of the highest quality, and he takes some leaves every year to make soul incense.

Most of the soul incense was handed over to the sect, and the remaining small amount was traded to Xiao Zhushan to fulfill his previous promise.

The Soul-Nourishing Tree will only be useful to him if it is cultivated to the lower second grade. Ji An is now worried about a situation: once the spiritual plant reaches the second grade, he may not be able to use it!

If that's the case, it would be a bit funny.

He used a special technique to release the Blue Dragon Jingzhe Technique, and then released the Yellow Dragon Zengyuan Technique.

The leaves of the soul-nourishing tree shine with purple light, while the earth spirit fruit tree reflects five-colored light, like neon lights, which is very beautiful.

Ji An continued to use the earth escape technique and came to the entrance of the cave. He used his magic power to nourish the red cloud spruce, and then opened the magic ban to enter the medicine garden.

In the garden, two fruits, red as fire, hung alone on the blood-red tree.

Other fruits have ripened and have been picked.

Seeing the state of the fruit, Ji An reached out, picked the spiritual fruit and put it into the jade box, and then affixed the spirit-sealing talisman.

He pulled up the blood tree by its roots, and a foot-long flame emerged from his fingertips, burning the spiritual plant into ashes, which fell like snow into the spiritual field.

Now only Tianyuan ginseng is left here, and the color of the leaves of this elixir is tending to turn dark green.

When the color completely changes from emerald to dark green and produces red seeds, it means that the medicine is five hundred years old.

Ji An pinched his fingers and released spells such as the Canglong Jingzhe spell, and light flashed on the rock wall.

He left the medicine garden and the cave with his hands behind his back, and rode a cloud back to the living room of Hantan, just in time to see Zhang Cuihua putting the spiritual food on the table.

Smelling the appetizing aroma, Ji An smiled and said:
"Very good, your cooking skills have improved again."

"Thank you for the compliment, Master, but it doesn't seem to be of much use. Master rarely eats meals on weekdays."

"Haha, you're indispensable when entertaining guests."

Ji An comforted him, he understood what he was thinking, he was worried about losing his job!

"From now on, unless you leave on your own initiative, there will definitely be a place for you on Scarlet Flame Peak."

He made a promise that the other party's cooking skills satisfied him very much, and he did not stop there, often making spiritual food with unique flavors.

"Thank you for your appreciation, Master!"

Zhang Cuihua bowed gracefully, and her uneasy heart would completely calm down.

Ji An nodded slightly and said:

"You can spend more time researching and breeding spiritual fish in the future. Now that the spiritual veins here have been improved, it would be a waste of the high-grade spiritual spring water at the bottom of the pond to continue breeding the old spiritual fish species."

"The disciple understands."

"In a few days, I will invite Fellow Daoist Liangqiu to come over and formulate a new fish farming plan. You can ask him for more advice."

Zhang Cuihua understood the meaning of the string and said:
"I will go to the General Affairs Hall tomorrow to look for relevant information on fish farming."

"That's great. As long as you're willing to spend time on something, you'll always see some results.

Go find Song Tao now and withdraw thirty spirit stones. You don't need to spend any money to learn knowledge.

If there are any remaining spirit stones, I will give them to you."

As long as the disciples are willing to study hard, Ji An is willing to give them opportunities.

"Thank you, Master!" Zhang Cuihua turned around and left happily.

Ji An thought about what happened at Xiaozhu Mountain, and Wei Bolin should have opened his meridians successfully.

Logically, he should have been able to join the sect last year, but I haven't heard any news about Wei Songnian. I guess he doesn't have the qualifications.

Neither of my old friend’s two children have reached the highest level of qualifications. If they don’t have other children, they will have to rely on their grandchildren in the future.

However, his promise will always be valid, and he is willing to accept a disciple with top-notch qualifications from the other family as his apprentice.

At noon the next day, Ji An was teleported to Ningcui Cliff. He entered the cave, took a look around, and asked:

"Master hasn't come back yet?"

The maid who was wiping the tables and chairs responded:

"No, if Grandmaster has something urgent, he can only use the Golden Sword to find Grandmaster Ge."

The maid felt a sense of dislocation in her heart. She called Ge Ying "Uncle Master", but she had to call Uncle Master's disciple "Grandmaster".

Ji An nodded slightly, "Okay, you go ahead."

He turned and walked out of the cave, taking out four golden swords for communication.

The first three were sent to the two ancestors and the master respectively, informing them of the cultivation of the second-grade top-grade spiritual fruit.

The last one was sent to Lingxiao Mountain to inform Senior Brother Zhang Zizhao about the improvement of the spiritual vein of Chiyan Peak.

Looking up at the golden light scattered in the sky, Ji An flew to the Sinong Palace on a cloud, sat cross-legged in the palace, practiced the magic, and opened up the Water God Palace.

Yulong Peak.

Zhong Yuefei pointed at the spiritual tea brought by the maid and said with a gentle smile:

"Master, this is the middle-grade Jade Dew Golden Bud planted by Junior Brother Ji. It has a very good effect in nourishing the soul."

Every year she would receive half a tael of Yu Lu Golden Bud Tea and one tael of top-grade Yunding Silver Tea, which she treasured very much.

Master now suffers from insomnia frequently. Drinking spiritual tea that nourishes the soul can greatly improve his sleep.

Ge Ying shook her head slightly, a kind light flashing in her cloudy eyes, and she said earnestly:
"You, just keep these spiritual teas for yourself.

You are now a cultivator at the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage. If you want to reach the Chao Yuan Stage in the future, you must increase the strength of your soul."

As she spoke, she took out a porcelain jar and said:
"As a dying person, I don't need to drink this kind of spiritual tea. It's a waste. It's fine for me to drink some Yunding Yinhao tea on a regular basis.

This Jade Dew Golden Bud Tea is what I saved up every day. Take it, you're the only one who needs it right now." Breaking through to the Chao Yuan Stage also requires a certain level of spiritual strength; the stronger the spiritual strength, the easier it will be.

In the past, most of the spiritual tea she obtained was given to her niece. Now that Ge Luoying has broken through to the Chaoyuan period, her demand for spiritual tea is not so high.

Zhong Yuefei waved her hands hurriedly and said:

"Master, I can't do that. This is a gift from my junior brother to you. It would be inappropriate for me to use it.

Besides, I'm still a long way from breaking through to the Chao Yuan stage, so there's no need to rush to nourish my soul."

The pattern on the porcelain jar is a mountain shrouded in golden-red mist, which is clearly the Red Flame Peak.

"Here," Ge Ying's tone became stern. "Master can't help you much. If you have any difficulties in the future, ask the two junior brothers for help. Don't feel ashamed."

She stood up and forcefully thrust the porcelain jar into the disciple's arms.

Zhong Yuefei couldn't refuse and had to accept it.

Ge Ying turned around contentedly and walked towards the seat.

Zhong Yuefei looked at her white-haired master walking unsteadily, and recalled his elegance when she became his disciple, and tears filled her eyes.

Because of her high talent in alchemy, she was favored by her master, and other fellow disciples were jealous of her.

She quickly lowered her head and wiped away her tears.

Ge Ying sat down again and was about to speak when he saw a golden light flying in from outside the cave.

She looked at the golden sword of communication that was vibrating beside her with some surprise, and reached out to catch it.

After sensing that it was Ji An's magical mark, she began to wonder in her heart what urgent matter the disciple had.

She probed into her spiritual sense to read the information, then stood up suddenly and sprained her waist because she moved too quickly.

Zhong Yuefei hurried forward to support him and said:
"Master, what happened?"

Master’s reaction was so emotional that she had a bad feeling in her heart.

"Send me back to Ningcui Cliff. Your junior brother has cultivated a top-grade spiritual peach tree!"

"what?!"

Chaoyang Peak, Wuji Palace.

Zhenren Zhengyang raised his hand slightly to catch the golden sword of communication, calmly probed into his spiritual consciousness, and then his face showed ecstasy, and he stood up suddenly.

He strode into the hall and immediately saw Jade Sky Immortal coming on a cloud.

"Junior brother, is there something wrong?"

Yu Xiao Zhenren's face was filled with joy, and he asked anxiously:
"Brother, has Ji An told you about the top-grade spiritual peach?"

"Haha, I just got the news and was planning to go to Ningcui Cliff to take a look."

Zhenren Zhengyang said that the sect’s main spiritual vein has been upgraded to the lower third grade, and the number of top-grade spiritual trees will increase in the future.

But the birth of the first top-grade spiritual tree after the spiritual vein was upgraded has more symbolic meaning.

"Let's go together!"

The distance between Yulong Peak and Ningcui Cliff is only more than half that between Chaoyang Peak and here.

When Zhong Yuefei arrived at the top of Ningcui Cliff with the alchemy furnace, she saw two auspicious clouds, one red and one yellow, flying towards them at an astonishing speed.

At first she thought that they were senior brothers in the Chaoyuan period who were in a hurry to get on the road. When she saw the faces of the people coming, she hurriedly stopped and waited.

"Greetings, ancestor," the master and disciple bowed and saluted solemnly.

Zhenren Zhengyang raised his hand and said:

"Excuse me, where is Ji Anren?"

"In reply to the ancestor, we have just returned to Ningcui Cliff and are not aware of his whereabouts."

At this time, the maid walked out of the cave, greeted several elders and said:
"When Master Ji left, I saw him heading towards the Sinong Hall."

Zhong Yuefei interjected:

"Two ancestors, Master, you go to the cave to rest. I'll go to the Sinong Palace."

Yu Xiao Zhenren shook his head slightly and said:
"No need to go to so much trouble. Send a golden sword to summon him back."

The sect’s large medicine gardens are all under legal prohibitions and require corresponding talismans to open.

If the caretaker of the medicine garden is not there, one can only go to the Work Hall to get the spare talisman to open the ban.

"The disciple is confused."

Zhong Yuefei took out the golden sword of communication and recorded the message, "Ancestor has arrived at the top of Ningcui Cliff, return quickly!" and immediately activated it.

Yu Xiao Zhenren withdrew his hand from the tree trunk, and his hearty voice echoed on the platform:

"Great! I can taste the best spiritual peaches again."

He felt as if he were in a dream, a little unreal. How could a top-grade spiritual tree be cultivated so easily?! How many years had passed since the last top-grade spiritual peach tree withered and died?
Zhenren Zhengyang smiled and shook his head: "You don't need to compete with those Chaoyuan-level disciples!"

He turned to look at his disciple, his eyes becoming more kind:

"Ji An, you have cultivated the best spiritual peach. What kind of reward do you want?"

At this moment, his cognition was refreshed again. He had never thought that a Chaoyuan-stage spiritual farmer could be so powerful.

Ji An scratched his head and said in surprise:

"Is it possible that the sect's rewards are not fixed and can be claimed at will?"

"According to the regulations, cultivating a second-grade top-grade spiritual wood will be rewarded with 5,000 great merits. I will allow you to make one additional request."

Ji An thought for a moment. He didn't have any urgent needs at the moment, so he said:

"I hope the sect can issue a mission to find more rare spiritual seeds or spiritual plant seedlings to give to me."
