Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

The next day, morning

Li Mu sowed the seeds of wind spirit grass in the spiritual field.

Li Mu stood at the edge of the spiritual field, holding the spell with both hands, and released the wind and rain technique.

A burst of spiritual power was released, and a clear breeze appeared out of thin air above the spiritual field, and a trickle of spiritual rain fell, sparsely, and lasted for more than thirty breaths.

Li Mu couldn't help but smile. He finally increased the duration of the Qingfeng Yuu technique, and the amount of rain was also much heavier. Of course, with the help of old man Zhang's experience in the technique, he also continued to use it during this period, and his proficiency continued to accumulate. Qingfeng The skill of calling rain has been upgraded to one level.

When the spiritual rain summoned by the Qingfeng Yuu technique stopped, Li Mu released it again and continued to water the wind spirit grass seeds with the spiritual rain.

In order for the seeds of Fenglingcao to germinate and grow luxuriantly, in addition to the fertile land of Lingtian, it also needs abundant water.

In the morning, noon and evening, it needs to be irrigated with spiritual rain three times to maintain the humidity of the spiritual field, so there is no need to do other work. The strong vitality of the ferngrass will compete with other weeds for living space, and there is almost no insect pests.

After watering the Fengling grass, Li Mu came to another spiritual field and began to plow and fatten the field in preparation for sowing the Cuiling fruit. Unlike the tenacious Fengling grass, the root system of the Cuiling fruit is not developed, which affects the soil quality and the fertility of the spiritual field. High requirements.

"Brother Zhao! Let's start sowing now!" At some point, Old Man Zhang, carrying large and small bags, stood at the edge of the field, smiling as he watched Li Mu turn over the soil.

"Mr. Zhang, are you leaving?" Li Mu stopped what he was doing.

"Well! Let's go. You can leave early or late! I've tidied up the yard for you. You can tidy it up yourself when you have time. From now on, build a fence to separate the road up and down the mountain. This hilltop is yours. La!" Old Man Zhang said goodbye to Li Mu with a smile.

"Mr. Zhang, let me see you off!" Li Mu quickly stood up.

"No, no, you can continue to work! Live well, live well, and find a Taoist companion as soon as possible to build a cultivation family with you." Old Man Zhang waved his hand, smiled and blessed Li Mu, and then bent his back , left alone in embarrassment.

Having been a spiritual cultivator for half his life, Old Man Zhang has already experienced the hardships of life as a cultivator.

Li Mu now is just like himself when he first entered the Qingxuan Sect, working hard in farming, hoping to turn around one day. However, as handyman disciples like them with no qualifications and no background, they are destined to spend their whole lives selling their labor and doing work for the Cultivation Sect. Contribution, no chance of rising.

Every year, new people continue to enter the 'Qingxuan Sect'. When they have been drained of their physical strength and youth, and they are old and weak, they have to be forced to leave. It is like a fateful reincarnation that cannot be escaped.

Watching Old Man Zhang struggling to carry his luggage and leaving alone, Li Mu somehow thought of the old world, those old farmers who worked hard in big cities but were unable to live in big cities in the end and were forced to return to their villages and have no one to rely on. Migrant workers.

Li Mu laughed self-deprecatingly. If it weren't for the proficiency panel, he would have ended up with the same fate as Old Man Zhang in his later years with his Five Elements Spiritual Root aptitude!

Before nightfall, Li Mu hurriedly plowed the soil of an acre of spiritual fields, sowed the spiritual seeds of the Cuiling Fruit, released two spells of wind and rain, and then completed the day's work.

Li Mu returned to the yard and started cooking spiritual rice in front of the stove.

After a while, a pot of fragrant spiritual rice came out of the oven. After enjoying it beautifully, Li Mu stopped practicing the Qingmu Jue, and instead closed his eyes and practiced the God Tempering Jue.

Cultivation can be improved through the innate magical power - Spirit Planting Absorption, so Li Mu was too lazy to practice any more techniques, and instead focused on the cultivation of the Pure God Art.

After about an hour passed, Li Mu opened his eyes and completed the practice of Cuishen Jue.

Li Mu looked at the character log of the virtual screen.

[You have successfully practiced the "Quenching God Art", and your proficiency in the God-Quenching Art +1.]

Seeing this level of proficiency, Li Mu was a little depressed. One level of proficiency was only improved a little. It would take three months to upgrade the God Tempering Jue from entry level to level one, and it would be helpful to the spiritual consciousness. This technique It’s too difficult to fix.

I don’t know what attributes can be obtained by absorbing the spirit of Cuiling Fruit and Wind Spirit Grass. It would be great if the cultivation points can be exchanged for proficiency. In the future, it will be fine to farm without having to work hard to practice these techniques.

Everything had to wait for the test of time. Li Mu stopped imagining, sat down at the work table specially made for making talismans, picked up the wolf talisman pen, and began to draw evil talismans.

Time flies, and a month and a half has passed in the blink of an eye.

In the Lingtian where Fenglingcao is planted, Fenglingcao grows extremely well, with thick roots and strong leaves, lush green, and swaying in the wind.

Li Mu held the spell and released a wind-calling rain spell over the spiritual field, attracting a spiritual rain the size of a grain of rice, completing the noon watering.

Then, Li Mu walked towards another spiritual field, preparing to check the growth of Cuiling Fruit.

During this period, he performed the Qingfengyu technique eight or nine times a day, which was unbeatable. At the same time, Li Mu also entered the Xuan Shui Jue practice into the character panel.

With the blessing of the fifth level of cultivation spiritual power, the amount of rain summoned by the Qingfeng Rain Calling Technique has been significantly improved.

At first, Li Mu didn't want to practice Xuanshui Jue because it was a low-level yellow-level technique like Qingmu Jue. Li Mu thought it was too low-end.

However, according to the experience recorded by Old Man Zhang, Xuanshui Jue is the key to increasing the amount of spiritual rain. Li Mu happened to be able to practice the Five Elements Miscellaneous Spiritual Roots, so he reluctantly started practicing Xuanshui Jue.

Li Mu can now obtain cultivation points through spiritual cultivation, which saves him the time of hard training to improve his cultivation. Practicing one more technique will not waste much time on him.

Not long after, Li Mu came to the spiritual field where the Cuiling Fruit was planted, checked the status of the Cuiling Fruit seedlings, and frowned.

Most of the Cuilingguo seedlings are in good condition. However, some seedlings have yellow leaves. They were fine yesterday but disappeared overnight.

Li Mu stared at the sickly Cuiling Fruits and immediately understood the reason why the Cuiling Fruits were sick.

"Intruded by evil evil spirits, the root system is partially blocked, and the plants develop infectious diseases."

After looking at the status attributes of several sick Cuiling Fruits, Li Mu suddenly felt a big headache.

"Is this disease still contagious?"

Li Mudeng became anxious, ran back to the house, and began to rummage through boxes and cabinets, looking for books on cultivating spiritual plants and looking for prescriptions for treating illnesses.

Li Mu did not find any prescription for treating Cuiling Fruit in the Ling Zhi Book left by the original owner. However, the "Ling Zhi Cure Experience" given to him by the old man Zhang found a way to cure the Cu Ling Guo disease.

First, use exorcism to get rid of diseased plants and evil spirits near the spiritual field, and then use spiritual nourishing water to irrigate the diseased Cuiling fruit plants.

Li Mu didn't know how to exorcise evil spirits, and there was no stock of spiritual nourishing water, so he had to make another trip to Qing'an Town.

Li Mu took the bag of spiritual stones, locked the courtyard door, and hurried to Qing'an Town.

On the way, several monks at the sixth or seventh level of Qi Refining flew over Li Mu's head with flying swords. Li Mu was envious.

During this period, Li Mu practiced sword-controlling skills every day. Now, sword-controlling skills have reached level two. Unfortunately, his cultivation is still a little behind, and he is still unable to fly with a sword.

However, the improvement in the fifth level of Qi Refining is still obvious.

Li Mu's pace was much faster. The journey that originally took more than ten minutes took half the time to reach Qing'an Town.

After paying a broken spirit entry fee, Li Mu walked towards the only Kung Fu shop in the town.
