Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

After watering the spiritual field, night falls quietly.

Li Mu packed up his farm tools, returned to the wooden house on the edge of the field, walked to a stove made of bluestone bricks in the corner of the yard, and started cooking rice.

Soon, the blazing stove fire lit up Li Mu's young face.

The spiritual field of the rented sect is located on the hillside. The small wooden house is built against the mountain. It has three rooms, one large and two small, and also has a courtyard for sword practice. Li Mu has read the lease, and the director of this small wooden house has 6 Zhang, width 2 feet 33, converted into square meters, covering an area of ​​about 150 square meters.

There is a pond not far from the entrance of the yard, and next to it is the spiritual field of the sect. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, full of aura of nature, with tall trees and dense forests, beautiful scenery, and no industrial pollution. It is extremely suitable for rural life, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, without 996, there is no mortgage pressure, this kind of pastoral life should not be too comfortable.

If it weren't for the hard work of farming, the occasional ferocious beasts in the mountains, monsters running down the mountain, and the occasional evil spirits and evil spirits at night, Li Mu wouldn't be dissatisfied with this pastoral life.

However, without if, this world is full of crises. Powerful monsters, ghosts, evil spirits, and demon cultivators eat flesh and blood, plunder souls, and refine human corpses. Humans are no longer the superior spirits of all things, but pigs. Sheep-like existence.

In the same world, there are powerful cultivators who can live hundreds or even thousands of years. They can fly into the sky and escape from the earth, move mountains and seas, and are omnipotent. For a little profit, they use swords and swords to kill people, seize treasures, destroy corpses and eliminate traces, and kill people like numb.

The original owner's death was unclear. It might have been caused by evil spirits or evil spirits. Li Mu looked at the stove fire with various thoughts in his mind.

In this world, personal strength is a matter of life and death and is of vital importance. We must work hard to improve our cultivation.

After a tiring day of farming and removing insects, Li Mu returned to the yard without relaxing. When the spiritual rice and monster meat were cooked and the steaming aroma wafted out, he couldn't wait to start eating.

Li Mu scooped up a large spoonful of steaming white rice from the large iron pot. The crystal clear rice grains exuded the heat and a subtle aroma of rice, which was fragrant and attractive.

Li Mu couldn't wait any longer, so he filled the pottery bowl and ate it impatiently, screaming when it was burned.

As soon as the hot spiritual rice enters the mouth, it is fragrant, glutinous, sweet and delicious. The fragrance of Qingling rice turns into warm currents, traveling around the meridians in the body. The whole body becomes warm, like a dry river that has been exposed to nectar for a long time, and the spiritual energy washes away. Wash your whole body.

Paired with a big mouthful of monster meat, it is full of meaty flavor and a mouthful of happiness.

Li Mu wolfed down the food, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he finished the entire pot of spiritual rice and half a pound of monster meat, still licking the corners of his mouth with unfulfilled interest.

Feeling warm and comfortable all over his body, Li Mu quickly put down his bowls and chopsticks, sat cross-legged on the ground, and practiced the Aoki Art with his eyes slightly closed.

Qingmu Jue is a wood-based technique, only at the lower level of Huangpin. It condenses the wood-based aura and is slightly weaker in terms of attack power. However, it is very suitable for assisting the growth of spiritual plants. The original owner’s ambition is to become a spiritual planter. Li Mu had no choice but to continue practicing this technique.

After eating spiritual rice, the monster flesh produces a large amount of warm spiritual energy in the body. The warm spiritual energy nourishes the body and slowly dissipates over time.

Li Mu took this opportunity to practice the Qingmu Jue, and the spiritual energy in his meridians flowed rapidly, gathering the warm spiritual energy flowing through his body.

The first Sunday, the second Sunday, the third Sunday,…

Time passed bit by bit, and Li Mu ran the Qingmu Jue with all his strength. With the spiritual blessing of spiritual rice and monster meat, the effect of his practice was three to four times that of his usual practice.

In the blink of an eye, an hour passed. Li Mu, who had been practicing with his eyes closed, suddenly felt a dull pain in his meridians, and had no choice but to stop practicing. Qingmu Jue was only a yellow-level technique, and the number of meridians that could be expanded during practice was limited. As a result, every week's movement The effectiveness is too short.

After the tenth week, the meridians have received insufficient spiritual blessings.

If you practice Xuan-level exercises, your meridians will be more precise than those of Huang-level exercises. You can perform the exercises for at least half an hour for a week, and the collected spiritual energy will become stronger.

Over time, the accumulation of strength and the differences in cultivation methods will eventually lead to the gap between heaven and earth.

Li Mu sighed and silently looked at the character attribute column of the virtual screen.

[On the first week of the operation of Aoki Jue, Aoki Jue proficiency: +1, spiritual energy nourishment, cultivation progress +3.]

[On the second day of the operation of Aoki Jue, Aoki Jue proficiency: +1, spiritual energy nourishing, cultivation progress +2.]

…

The log prompt below the character attribute bar shows the results of this training.

During this practice, the proficiency of Aoki Jue has increased by 7 points, and the progress of cultivation has increased by 16 points. If he continues to practice at this efficiency, it will take about two months to break through the third level of Qi refining.

However, this is under the condition of eating spiritual rice every day and eating monster meat.

How could he get so many spiritual stones? He eats and fishes every day.

"Alas! These days are so difficult!" Li Mu sighed, and quickly put away the dishes on the table, preparing to make talismans to earn spiritual stones. Farming alone could not satisfy his cultivation.

There is a familiarity panel. If the level of the Talisman Making Technique can be raised, there will be a stable source of future training resources.

In the bedroom of the wooden house, the candle light swayed in the center of the wooden table.

Li Mu sat in front of the wooden table, holding a wolf-hair talisman pen in his right hand, and concentrated on drawing talisman patterns on the talisman paper. The weak spiritual power in the hand holding the pen maintained a continuous and stable output. At the same time, he also needed to ensure that the painting The smoothness of the runes.

The blank talisman paper is made of low-level monster skin, peeled off in multiple layers, and processed through secret techniques. It is thin and light.

Li Muxiao painted the talisman patterns carefully, fearing that the talisman pen would puncture the talisman paper. At the same time, he also had to ensure that the spiritual ink on the tip of the pen was even and the spiritual power output could be engraved in the talisman patterns.

Suddenly, with a "pop" sound, the talisman paper spontaneously ignited out of thin air, startling Li Mu.

Li Mu jumped and kicked repeatedly, then stamped out the burning talisman paper with his feet, his heart beating hard.

Damn, that’s scary!

Making an evil talisman can also start a fire. What happened just now?

It seems that one of the rune lines is drawn crookedly?

Because something went wrong here, causing a spiritual conflict?

Um! The lines on the front are all drawn correctly, so the spiritual power is successfully output!

After extinguishing the burning talisman paper, Li Mu compared it with the "Spirit Drawing Strategy" and summarized the mistakes made in making the talisman just now.

In the original world, Li Mu was a senior programmer who was good at summarizing failures and logical reasoning. After this failure in drawing runes, he quickly found out the key reason for the spontaneous combustion of the rune paper.

Summing up the experience of failure, Li Mu felt that the distance talisman was successful and it was another big step forward.

Li Mu took out a new piece of talisman paper and tried again.
