When his mood gradually cald down, Ji An sat down cross-legged again and began to operate the secret technique.
The dantian seed like a spring, constantly gushing out jade-colored magical power.
The magical power, possessing the characteristics of the Wood Elent, contained the force of germination and growth and, under his control, circulated along a specific path within the immortal veins.
As the immortal veins expanded, the two Dao Seeds, Wood of Jia and Wood of Yi, glead brightly.
The Jia Wood Dao Seed was dark green, full of vigorous growth, while the Yi Wood Dao Seed was jade green, exuding the divine intent of all things sprouting.
Ji An operated this secret technique with familiarity. Soon, the faint silvery Life Light erged, happily flowing within the kidneys, appearing in the left kidney at one mont, and the right kidney the next.
Generally speaking, the nurturing of Life Light is only pursued by cultivators at the Foundation Establishnt Perfection level, but he started nurturing Life Light at the Seventh-Layer Foundation Establishnt, and it’s been six years now.
The deeper the understanding of the cultivation technique divine intent, the faster the nurturing of Life Light.
At first, the Life Light was like a fine thread, but now it was as thick as a little finger, like a silver fish, full of lively life energy.
Once the cultivation level rises to Foundation Establishnt Perfection and the Life Light grows to the point of generating radiance on its own, he can take the Nourishing Yuan Pill for a breakthrough.
Ti ticked away, and the Life Light suddenly disappeared, going dormant.
Ji An slowly finished his cultivation, a gentle smile appearing on his lips.
He took out two Communication Golden Swords to input ssages, one for his master, the other for Junior Martial Uncle Jia.
The water-elental spiritual objects in hand have been depleted, so tomorrow he needs to make a trip to Sunrise Peak.
Then, he also took out a Communication Flying Sword to activate.
This one was for Senior Sister Zhong, to thank her for her support this year.
The implication is to inform her that from now on, the Mystic Wood Gathering Spirit Pill is no longer needed.
....
Ningcui Cliff.
Ge Ying finished refining pills and found that her grand-niece had returned to the grotto mansion, kindly smiling:
"Today’s mission was completed very smoothly."
In recent years, the grandniece would return to Ningcui Cliff after completing her missions, allowing her to fully enjoy family happiness.
"Yes, not only did I complete the mission, but I also realized a deeper level of divine intent in cultivation during the battle, and I already feel the bottleneck of the Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishnt loosening!"
Ge Luoying’s smiling face was radiant, showing no sign of the sharpness of a Sword Cultivator.
Junior Brother Li Haoran far surpassed her long ago, and over the years, her mindset gradually cald down.
The change in mindset didn’t an losing her ambition, but that she gradually found her own path.
Now it seed all the persistence was bearing fruit, with a little more patience, the Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishnt would soon be achieved!
"Not only completing the mission but also taking a step further, it’s a double blessing.
We should have a drink at dinner, let’s drink the bamboo wine sent by Ji An!"
Ge Ying spoke with a light-hearted tone, her heart filled with joy as well.
Ge Luoying’s eyebrows twitched, her eyes becoming vibrant and bright:
"Great Aunt, guess who between and Junior Brother Ji will break through the Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishnt first?"
A few years back, when Ji An’s breakthrough to the Eighth-Layer Foundation Establishnt was announced, it had greatly shocked her.
His rapid advancent speed was only half a year slower than Junior Brother Li Haoran.
"Of course, my Luoying will break through first."
Ge Ying said cheerfully, one being her blood-relative descendant, the other her closed-door disciple, she would be satisfied to see either breakthrough to the Chao Origin Stage in her lifeti.
Ge Luoying’s eyes glead brighter, supporting her great-aunt to sit down, she began narrating the details of today’s mission.
In recent years, the demon beasts have invaded the human race’s interior, totaling twelve Demon Kings in appearance, severely compressing the sects’ sphere of influence.
The Three Sects built teleportation arrays between each other, working together to defend.
Now, the demon beasts primarily attack Yuanhe Mountain, with eight Demon Kings gathered, while the other two sects each have two Demon Kings and tens of thousands of demon beasts harassing and diverting.
The Golden Spirit Sect, upon determining the whereabouts of a Demon King, would occasionally organize elite cultivators to fiercely attack, causing maximal damage to the demon beasts.
Through continuous battles, a new batch of disciples skilled in magical combat has erged from the sect.
After listening to the narration, Ge Ying looked at the junior affectionately:
"Be careful and don’t try to be a hero."
Every ti the other party returned, she would give this advice.
"Great Aunt, rest assured, I am very aware of my capabilities and will not overestimate myself."
War has taught her much, which is fundantally different from the previous demon hunting.
Most of the cultivators who overestimated themselves have already perished.
As they talked, a Communication Golden Sword flew to the entrance of the grotto mansion, emitting a special aura fluctuation.
Ge Ying opened the Dharma Prohibition, letting the Golden Sword enter.
Raising her hand to catch the Communication Golden Sword and sensing its magical mark, she smiled slightly.
"It’s actually from Ji An. Could it be that the Spiritual Peach is about to ripen?"
The Tier Two Middle-Grade Spiritual Peach planted on Red Fla Peak fruited months ago, and by counting the days, there should be a few early ripening ones.
She probed with her divine sense to check the content within, her face revealing an odd expression, then quickly regaining composure.
Despite her expression flashing by, Ge Luoying still caught that subtle facial change.
"Great Aunt, what’s happened?"
The observation skills of a Sword Cultivator are exceptionally keen.
For a mont, Ge Ying didn’t know how to begin, fearing that saying it directly might damage her grand-niece’s confidence.
She paused for a mont, vaguely saying:
"The Spiritual Peach is about to ripen."
"Great Aunt, I’m not a child.
If you feel uncomfortable telling about this matter, just say it directly."
Ge Ying scratched her head, hesitated for a long ti, then slowly opened her mouth:
"Ji An has broken through to the Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishnt."
She carefully observed the expression on her niece’s face.
Ge Luoying felt so heat on her face, but quickly cald down and said with a smile:
"This is a good thing, I must properly congratulate Junior Brother."
Everyone has their own opportunities, and she has already realized her path.
These things will not linger in her heart.
...
Red Fla Peak, Ji An sat at the dining table beside the Cold Pool.
Only to see a setting sun spread on the water, half of the cold pond turned a deep orange.
The maid, Zhang Cuihua, brought up the dinner, poured a cup of wine, and retreated behind Junior Martial Uncle.
A year ago, Huang Xuan and others all reached Foundation Establishnt, she, Tian Tiezhu, and Wei Songtao were chosen together.
Zhang Cuihua is a spirit chef, already forty-six years old, barely Fifth-Layer Qi Refining.
Tian Tiezhu is a fisherman who raises spirit fish, and the talent and aptitude of the three are similar, the progress of their cultivation thod is slow, all belong to the bottom tier among cultivators.
According to Ji An’s guiding philosophy, Red Fla Peak needs long-term laborers who can stay for a long ti, not short-term workers.
Precisely because these few people have poor cultivation talent, they were selected.
After tasting a bite of stead fish, Ji An praised:
"Hmm, the spirit fish tastes good, has your cooking improved, Cuihua?"
"It should be because Junior Martial Uncle is in a good mood today," Zhang Cuihua said honestly.
The cooking steps and control over the heat are not much different from usual, and The Recipe hasn’t been modified, so there wouldn’t be much variation in taste.
So, the issue must lie with Junior Martial Uncle.
That joyful sound of a long howl, she certainly heard, she also knows how a person’s mood influences taste and perception, and won’t attribute such unreal credit to herself.
"Haha, you love speaking the truth."
Ji An picked up the wine cup and took a sip, ordering:
"Tell Songtao to take thirty spirit stones from the account today, ten for each of you.
I’ve broken through to the Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishnt, let’s all celebrate together."
For cultivators, a breakthrough in cultivation is certainly worth celebrating, moreover, breaking through to the Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishnt carries special significance.
"Congratulations to Junior Martial Uncle on reaching a new level," Zhang Cuihua’s face blood with a smile.
Having worked as a spirit chef here for over half a year, she feels very comfortable, Junior Martial Uncle is a generous cultivator, offering ample rewards.
When brewing the wine, there’s even extra compensation.
Her cultivation is hopeless, but she has a son and a daughter, accumulating spirit stones can help with the offspring.
After finishing dinner, the Gold and Fire Spirit chanism in Red Fla Peak had completely dispersed, he began to cast spells over the spirit field.
The Water Elent spirit plant orchard has a total of two acres, currently planting twenty Celestial Essence Pear trees.
Presently possessing four Tier Two Lower-Grade Celestial Essence Pear trees, all the rest are Tier One Top Grade.
First he released the Thick Earth Returning Origin Spell, yellow spirit light covered the ground.
Although water subdues earth, the Water Elent plants still need the nourishing spirit chanism within the Dao of Ji Earth magic technique.
The expansion of Life Light can enhance the spell effect, the nourishing aura contained in the Thick Earth Returning Origin Spell is richer by twenty to thirty percent than before.
The Tier Two Celestial Essence Pear emitted a more intense spirit light, resembling a brilliant jade carving.
Ji An cast the Spring Breeze and Rain Skill, sparkling white mist rolled over, spirit rain filled with moist aura poured down.
This spell’s magic intent also improved by twenty to thirty percent.
"Gah!"
The Grey-feathered Sand Goose flew to its owner’s side, as night fell, it very actively flew over to await orders.
No choice, now that there’s competition from the Golden Feathered Eagle, it also had to exert effort to show itself, it couldn’t be regarded as a useless bird!
Upon spell completion, Ji An mounted the beast taming, heading to the fire elent spirit plant garden.
The eight-acre orchard currently only planted five acres.
Planted ten Dragon Blood Trees and Spiritual Apricot trees each, thirty Spiritual Peach trees.
Among these, one is a Tier Two Lower-Grade Dragon Blood Tree, two Tier Two Lower-Grade Spiritual Apricot Trees, two Tier Two Middle-Grade Spiritual Peach Trees, six Tier Two Lower-Grade Spiritual Peach Trees.
Another three acres of land remain vacant, the Sect’s Tier Two Top-Grade Spiritual Peach fruit is nearing maturity, by then will obtain high-tier seeds to plant.
Ji An first released Thick Earth Returning Origin Spell and Fla Fire Spell, finally released Jade Wood Transformation Skill.
With the strengthening of Life Light coupled with deeper understanding of Evergreen Wood Skill, now when he performs the wood elent technique, it’s even more mystical.
The sky rained down jade green leaves, various colored small flowers, red, white, pink, purple, splendid and dreamlike.
These light point are as large as broad beans, quickly integrating into the spirit plants.
Dragon Blood Tree appears as a burning torch, other Tier Two spirit plant veins also exuded firelight.
Not far away, Tian Tiezhu and Wei Songtao watched quietly, watching Junior Martial Uncle casting spells is a kind of delightful enjoynt.
"Old Tian, each ti watching Junior Martial Uncle cast spells, it feels akin to immortal techniques."
Wei Songtao sighed, before arriving at Red Fla Peak, he had never seen Tier Two spirit plants, never thought the Tier Two spirit plants here were scattered all over the mountain.
When patrolling the mountain for the first ti, he felt his expression must have looked foolish.
Tian Tiezhu scratched his head, "Indeed worthy of being called immortal techniques, when entering the sect, I should have chosen the path of a Spirit Farr, I regret it deeply now."
"Co on, there’s tens of thousands of disciples who opted to be Spirit Farrs in the sect.
Over all these years, how many Spirit Farrs have reached the Foundation Establishnt level, let alone people who can compare to Junior Martial Uncle!"
