The door of a bamboo house was pulled open, Li Lingyu ca out and smiled at the two people chatting:
"Greetings, Senior Brother Liu. It seems Master has accepted Junior Brother Ji into the sect. Shouldn’t we celebrate a little?"
Ji An cupped his hands and said:
"I intended to invite the two Senior Sisters, but feared interrupting your cultivation, so I dared not invite recklessly."
"Senior Sister Mu is adjusting her state, she may not have the ti..."
"I am free," ca a slightly cool voice. Wearing a green silk skirt with a jade hairpin in her hair, Mu Qingwan stepped out:
"Just in ti for a little relaxation."
"Sa goes for ," Du Huaiyuan ca out with a hearty laugh.
"Then let’s go, today it’s my treat.
Firstly, to wish Qingwan and Huaiyuan success in their Foundation Establishnt, and secondly to welco Junior Brother Ji, there will be plenty of Spirit Wine."
"You understand well, Senior Brother. So days later I will definitely let you taste my homade brew!"
Du Huaiyuan laughed loudly, having accidentally acquired a secret recipe for brewing Spirit Fruit Wine, he beca fond of drinking.
Liu Yu activated the Flying Escape Magical Artifact, a Spirit Cloud flew from Ningcui Cliff with a howl into the distance.
The Spirit Cloud Magical Artifact landed in an area Ji An had never been to, amidst the lush green mountains, revealing red bricks and blue tiles.
Li Lingyu said softly:
"This marketplace is located on the edge of the sect’s inner heart, frequented by disciples who have been accepted by their masters, occasionally also Foundation Establishnt cultivators.
Every once in a while, a gathering is held here where everyone exchanges resources or shares cultivation insights."
Although everyone has a master, it’s impossible to have opportunities for face-to-face teachings often.
Ji An exhaled gently, understanding that his rank had crossed a small step-up.
Inside Piaoxiang Inn, a sumptuous feast of Spiritual Food began, everyone ate and chatted in the private room.
Liu Yu and the others had recently learned from their master about the impending Demon Calamity, raising a sense of urgency in their hearts.
They knew that in the future, everyone would inevitably appear on the front line against demon beasts; this feast of Spiritual Food also served to connect the bonds between brothers.
Liu Yu raised his cup and laughed:
"Among Master’s disciples, we are the youngest, with limited contact with other senior brothers and sisters, we must help each other in the future."
Master’s other disciples are Foundation Establishnt cultivators, each busy with their own matters, eting opportunities are scarce even if wanting to bond emotionally.
"Senior Brother speaks truly."
Du Huaiyuan also raised his cup, and everyone toasted in the air and drank it all.
Everyone intended to strengthen connections, the atmosphere in the private room was harmonious, drinking until the sunset dimd.
...
The next day.
Early morning, Ji An woke up from his sleep promptly and imdiately sank his mind into his Dantian, seeing ink-colored words appearing in his mind.
[Master: Ji An]
[Dao Rhy: 0]
[Spiritual chanism: Kan Spirit 137.4, Gen Spirit 0.4, Zhen Spirit 6.6, Xun Spirit 392.6, Kun Spirit 678.4, Qian Spirit 0.2]
He sat up abruptly, exclaiming:
"The feeling of having strong support is truly satisfying."
He roughly calculated, staying at Ningcui Cliff all day increased Kan Spirit by double compared to being by Jade Water Lake, Xun Spirit and Kun Spirit increased by triple respectively, along with gaining an extra kind of Spiritual chanism — Gen Spirit.
Gen represents earth, symbolizes stability and stillness.
Gen Spirit and Kun Spirit should correspond to enhancing the magical techniques with properties of Wu Earth and Ji Earth.
Wu Earth is yang, a hot dry earth with fire energy, Ji Earth is yin, a moist earth with water energy; the Thick Earth Technique using Kun Spirit enhancent is evident proof.
Ji An thought of this and imdiately began experinting.
"Refine Gen Spirit!"
The Stone Turtle imdiately gave feedback: "No magical technique for advancent available."
Validated his hypothesis, Ji An nodded slightly, left the bamboo house, and boarded the Talisman Bird heading to the dicinal Garden.
The Spiritual Qi in the dicinal Garden was even denser; for two hours of cultivation ti, arrangents should be clear.
...
In the dicinal Garden, the dense Spiritual Qi made Ji An feel every pore open up, greedily breathing it in.
The concentration of nature’s spiritual energy here was significantly stronger than when the Spirit Capturing Array was activated.
Cultivating here not only strengthens the effect but also long-term saves many Spirit Stones.
He took out a Pudun from a grass hut, sat cross-legged, and began cultivation.
As the Qingyuan Scripture circulated, dense Spiritual Qi inhaled through the nose, circulating in the Immortal Vein, transforming into magical power more easily than usual.
When he felt a faint pain in the Immortal Vein, Ji An ended cultivation, discovering Xiang Yong had arrived in the dicinal Garden, waiting nearby.
Seeing Ji An awaken, Xiang Yong smiled and cupped his hands:
"Senior Brother Ji diligently cultivates, and is truly admirable."
Ji An chuckled, this had nothing to do with diligent cultivation.
Without using the Spirit Capturing Array, Qi Refining disciples can only cultivate during certain hours like early morning and evening.
Xiang Yong knew what he said was nonsense, so he laughed it off and continued:
"Yesterday we just glanced around the dicinal Garden, does Senior Brother have any questions?"
Ti to get to work, he didn’t know the other’s planting technique level, if it wasn’t as good as Li Lingyu, he’d be in trouble.
"No questions, last night I earnestly read the Jade Slip Master provided, gaining a basic understanding of the dicinal Garden.
However, since I’ve just taken over, if my actions are inappropriate, I’d appreciate Elder Xiang’s guidance."
Ji An saw he was quite elderly and only at the eighth layer of Qi Refining, calling him a junior brother wouldn’t be suitable, thus addressing him as ’Elder Xiang’, showing due respect.
"I’m unworthy of being called Senior Brother, just call Old Xiang."
Xiang Yong’s mood improved, regardless of the other’s magical technique level, at least he was polite, likely not a difficult person to get along with.
"How did things work before?"
"Before Old Zhang left, we took this central axis as the boundary, he managed the east dicinal field, I managed the west.
When overwheld, Senior Sister Lingyu would assist."
Ji An nodded slightly, saying:
"Now, I’ll take over Old Zhang’s side, every two months, we switch areas. By the way, where do you usually gather Wood Elent Beads?"
Master arranged for him to manage the dicinal Garden, definitely valuing his magical technique talent.
Without boasting, if he only managed the eastern area, it wouldn’t be long before the difference between the two areas’ dicinal fields beca apparent.
All planting techniques are at the Perfection Level, which is no joking matter.
Moreover, Kun Spirit is soon abundant, allowing the Thick Earth Technique to be elevated to the Great Perfection Level, further widening the gap.
He’s here to work, pleasing the master with excellent results.
Master promised favorable actions when exchanging Foundation Establishnt Pills; even if it was courtesy talk, he’s taking it seriously.
Besides, he dares to shalessly ask Master for help, borrowing so Spirit Stones should be possible!
But switching areas might be...
Xiang Yong’s newfound good impression disappeared imdiately, wishing to refuse, sohow couldn’t utter the words of refusal.
Under the other’s direct managent, refusing harshly would make days tougher later on.
Elder Ge provided generous treatnt, which he hesitated to leave.
"I’ll follow Senior Brother’s arrangent.
The few acres of Purple Sun Wood outside the dicinal Garden are where we exhibit the Life and Death Technique to condense Wood Elent Beads, but if the magical technique level isn’t high enough, spiritual dicine growth is hindered, consuming more Wood Elent Beads.
We can’t excessively extract the Purple Sun Wood’s Spiritual Qi, to et Elder Ge’s requirents, sotis we spend Spirit Stones buying Wood Elent Beads externally."
