Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

"Senior Li, do you really not need to help you arrange servants?"

After clearing away the sect disciples from Yueya Island, Ji Hanyan looked at Li Mu and said again enthusiastically.

"No, I like to be clean and don't like other people to disturb me." Li Mu declined with a smile.

"Okay! If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave, Senior Li. If you need any help, just come to Chiba Island to find me. Hanyan is obligated." Ji Hanyan had a good impression of Li Mu, and there was a hint of flattery in her words. Said quite profoundly.

Li Mu was young, rich, and a Yuanying monk. He had a little girl and a maid by his side. He didn't even have a Taoist monk. He was able to rent the Crescent Island for 30 years at once. Such an outstanding talent moved Ji Hanyan's heart.

However, falling flowers are intentional and flowing water is ruthless. Li Mu seemed not to understand. He nodded calmly and said casually: "Okay, if necessary, I will trouble Miss Ji when the time comes!"

Ji Hanyan heard the perfunctory meaning of Li Mu's "calm", and reluctantly released the third-order spirit boat, and hurriedly flew away from Crescent Island under Li Mu's watch.

"Master Li, Miss Ji is treating you, hehe, don't you feel it?" After Ji Hanyan left, Xueer looked at Li Mu with a smile and asked teasingly.

"You're a brat, what do you know!" Li Mu glared at Xue'er and asked with a straight face.

"I'm so young! Huh!" Xue'er snorted angrily and flew away, ready to take a good tour of this spiritual island.

Li Mu was too lazy to pay attention to her and flew to the spiritual field. He used pinching techniques with his hands and used them one after another, such as the drying technique, the earth dragon technique,... to clear out all kinds of spiritual plants planted in the two thousand acres of high-grade spiritual fields one by one. Spiritual field.

The third- and fourth-level spiritual plants dried up, carbonized, and... under the baking technique, the earth dragon technique turned the spiritual field over, removing all impurities in the soil, leaving only the pure spiritual field soil.

With the passage of time, all the spiritual plants in the spiritual field have disappeared. They were buried under the soil of the spiritual field, and after Li Mu's catalysis, they became fertilizer for the spiritual field. This process makes the Shangpin Lingtian more fertile and the soil softer, suitable for planting Purple Yang Ganoderma and Yinpo Fruit.

In less than half an hour, Li Mu completed the arrangement of two thousand acres of high-grade spiritual fields. Then, he released nine fifth-level spiritual swords from the nine hidden spiritual beads and began to arrange various magic circles on Crescent Island.

Li Mu is planning to live on Crescent Island for a long time, and will not consider moving to other places until he reaches the level of god transformation. Therefore, the safety of Crescent Island has become particularly important.

Li Mu is going to spend a lot of energy to arrange multiple spiritual formations for Yueya Island, and finally form a protective formation to protect the safety of the spiritual island in all directions.

After upgrading the formation technique to the sixth level, Li Mu gained a lot of valuable formation experience. Although he did not learn more new formation techniques, Li Mu has reached the level of mastery in understanding and applying the formation. Different environments, terrains, spiritual energy and other factors can flexibly use various formations to save a lot of energy consumption and exert maximum power and best effects.

First of all, Li Mu arranged a fog formation on Yueya Island that covered the entire island. The main function of the fog formation was to cover up the spiritual energy on the island, shrouding Yueya Island in a layer of fog, making it impossible for outside monks to detect the existence of the island. So as to avoid being disturbed.

In order to lay out this large formation, Li Mu needed to carefully study the climate, terrain and spiritual energy distribution on the island, and then choose the appropriate location and angle to depict the formation pattern.

Next, set up the spirit gathering formation. The main function of this formation is to gather the spiritual energy of the entire island, increase the speed of cultivation on the island, and prevent the spiritual energy emitted by the spiritual veins from escaping and being wasted.

The layout of the spirit gathering array requires the help of the spiritual veins on the island. The spiritual power in the spiritual veins is guided out through a special formation structure and gathered on the spirit field. At the same time, in order to make the spirit gathering array more efficient, Li Mu also needs to Some special formation patterns are carved into the formation, and spiritual stones are consumed to increase the gathering speed and concentration of spiritual energy.

In addition to the above two main formations, Li Mu also arranged the Spirit Separation Formation and the Yin and Yang Hunyuan Formation.

The main function of the Spirit Separation Formation is to block the prying eyes of spiritual consciousness and protect the secrets of the island. It can cover the entire island in an invisible and intangible barrier, making it impossible for outside monks to detect the situation on the island through spiritual consciousness. .

The Yin-Yang Hunyuan Array is used to sort out the distribution of Yin and Yang, making the spiritual fields on Crescent Island suitable for planting Yin-Yang spiritual plants such as Purple Yang Ganoderma and Yinpo Fruit. To arrange this array, you need to carve array patterns at specific locations to guide Yin and Yang. The flow and intersection of the two qi.

In addition, Li Mu also plans to arrange a five-element formation for Yueya Island. The five-element formation needs to be based on the environment of the island and equipped with five sixth-order five-element spirit swords, which can form a powerful defensive force. With the help of the five-element spirit sword, With his power, Li Mu can carve corresponding formation patterns on the island to form a five-element formation. This formation can be adjusted according to the enemy's attributes to effectively resist attacks from different directions.

…

Li Mu focused on nine things and simultaneously controlled nine spiritual swords to carve. These spiritual swords were like his hands, accurately and powerfully carving out formation patterns.

During the formation process, Li Mu also needed to make flexible adjustments according to different terrain, climate, aura and other factors to make full use of resources and achieve the best defense effect.

As time went by, Li Mu became more and more proficient in understanding and applying formations. With his rich experience and superb skills in level 6 formations, he integrated and nested various formations into each other to form a unique formation. The effect makes the island protection array more stable and more powerful.

In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, Li Mu also used the terrain and spiritual veins of Crescent Island to set up the formation. High-level spiritual veins are one of the most precious resources on the island.

Li Mu cleverly used these spiritual veins and water potential to make the array more stable and effective, reducing the consumption of spiritual stones. At the same time, Li Mu also took advantage of the ups and downs of the terrain, the natural shape of the mountain and other factors to arrange the array according to the situation. This makes the array more natural, harmonious and integrated with the environment of the island.

Seven days passed in a flash.

During these seven days, Li Mu devoted himself day and night to the arrangement of the large protective formation on Crescent Island. With his unremitting efforts, the protective formation on Crescent Island was finally completed.

Li Mu held the formation with his hands and fired out a stream of spiritual power on the ground, rock walls, and hidden formation patterns, successfully activating the comprehensive island protection formation.

With a soft "buzz" sound, the fog formation took effect first. The powerful formation force evaporated, stirring the seawater around Crescent Island, dispersing a large amount of water vapor, forming a thick fog circle that was difficult to see through with the naked eye, surrounding the entire Crescent Island. .

The activation of the fog formation shrouded the entire island in fog, completely blocking the outside world's sight.

Then, the Spirit Gathering Formation was also activated. The overflowing spiritual power of heaven and earth gathered from all directions due to the powerful force of the Spirit Gathering Formation. The spiritual power overflowing from the high-level spiritual veins was also bound to the island.

The concentration of spiritual power on the island is rising rapidly, visible to the naked eye... As time goes by, the spiritual power on Crescent Island becomes more and more intense, as if a small spiritual sea is formed, and the center of this spiritual sea is The location of the spirit gathering formation.

I believe that it won’t be long before the concentration of spiritual energy in the core area of ​​the island can increase several times, reaching an environment where even monks can practice spiritual power.

…

With the island protection formation fully activated, the entire island was shrouded in a faint layer of mist. The formation ran smoothly, and Li Mu finally had some free time.

Li Mu stood on the top of the mountain on Crescent Island. Looking from a distance, the fog seemed to form a natural barrier under the sunlight, wrapping the entire Crescent Island in it.

After seven days of gestation, the fertilizers in the two thousand acres of high-grade spiritual fields have been fully digested. Li Mu took a deep breath, and then he should start planting two yin and yang spiritual plants.

Li Mu jumped lightly and flew to the edge of the spiritual field.

Li Mu closed his eyes slightly, and his spiritual thoughts stretched outward like threads. Under his spiritual thoughts, the two thousand acres of high-grade spiritual fields seemed to have turned into a huge picture, clearly showing the sea of ​​consciousness.

With a soft sound of "Brush!", a large piece of sand suddenly flew out of the spiritual field. Under the control of Li Mu's spiritual thoughts, the large piece of sand was suspended in the air. Below, in the two thousand acres of spiritual field, thumb-sized objects appeared. The small pits are densely packed and arranged neatly, like a fine chessboard.

Li Mu reached out and took out several boxes of Purple Yang Ganoderma spiritual seeds and Yinpo Fruit spiritual seeds from the Jiuzang Lingzhu, and gently threw them out.

Two kinds of spiritual plants, hundreds of thousands, millions of spiritual seeds, guided by Li Mu's spiritual thoughts, accurately fell into every small pit.

After all the spiritual seeds fell into the pit, Li Mu waved his hand gently, and with a "swish" sound, the sand suspended in mid-air fell back down, completely burying the spiritual seeds in the small pits.

The whole process was like flowing clouds and flowing water. Li Mu relied on his powerful spiritual thoughts to complete the sowing work of two thousand acres of spiritual fields in a matter of seconds.

Li Mu looked at the two thousand acres of spiritual land, smiled slightly, and pinched the spell of the wind and rain technique in his hand.

As Li Mu cast the spell, a dark cloud quickly gathered in the sky. The dark cloud rolled, and raindrops the size of rice grains scattered down, densely packed, and slapped on the two thousand acres of spiritual fields.

The "tapping" sound of rain echoed in the spiritual field. The raindrops were like fine drums, constantly beating the soil. Every drop of rain seemed to carry the source of life, providing sufficient energy for the spiritual plants that had just been sown. nutrient.

Two thousand acres of top-grade spiritual fields were carefully watered under the control of Li Mu's spiritual thoughts. The spiritual seeds of Purple Yang Ganoderma and Yin Po Fruit taken out from the Jiuzang Spiritual Pearl were quietly activated by the nourishment of the spiritual rain and the activation of Yin and Yang Qi.

The spiritual rain fell for about two-quarters of an hour. Li Mu looked at the spiritual field drenched by the spiritual rain with satisfaction. The humidity was almost there, so he stopped the Qingfengyu technique.

Li Mu then took out more than a dozen boxes of Purple Sun Jade and dozens of bottles of Taihua Moon Dew from the Jiuzang Spirit Beads, and poured specific spiritual objects into the spirits on both sides to assist the growth of the two spiritual plants.

…

After planting two thousand acres of fourth-level yin-yang spiritual plants, Li Mu felt a little tired, but also very satisfied.

Li Mu took a deep breath and flew back to the cave. His figure flashed and disappeared.

Li Mu entered the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion. Next, he needed to start planting five kinds of fourth-level five-element spiritual plants.

For decades, Li Mu continued to collect and prepare, and the Jiuzang Spirit Beads stored a large number of fourth-level and five-element spiritual plant seeds, as well as spiritual objects that assist the growth of spiritual plants, and accumulated a large inventory, which was enough to meet his consumption.

Thinking of the unexpected failure in planting spiritual plants last time, Li Mu couldn't help but feel a little regretful. In order to make up for the regret last time, Li Mu spent his money this time and decided to increase the planting quantity of each spiritual plant to a thousand acres. After this wave of spiritual plants, After harvesting the plants, hit the realm of divine transformation.

…

Time flies, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye.

During these three months, Li Mu has been living in seclusion on the island, busy all day long taking care of spiritual plants, refining weapons and drawing talismans, studying puppet spiritual objects and the true interpretation of divine patterns, etc., and has never left Crescent Island again.

In three months, under Li Mu's careful care, the seedlings of seven fourth-level spiritual plants emerged one after another and grew gratifyingly.

In the Painting World Treasure Mansion, Li Mu stood next to a high-grade spiritual field of high-grade spiritual plants. Holding an eternal dead wood staff, he selected a fifth-grade spiritual plant - an ordinary spiritual flower, and prepared to use the technique of withered and prosperous years on it to obtain it. of spiritual seed.

Seventeen Bodhi Spirit Flower seedlings are grown from a three-hundred-year-old Bodhi Spirit Tree. The flower core of this spiritual plant contains stamens and pistils, which can pollinate freely on their own. If the technique of dry and prosperous years is used to ripen, There is no need to worry about them not being able to bear fruit and give birth to spiritual seeds when they wither.

Compared with the number and scale of the spiritual seeds of fourth-level spiritual plants, the seeds of fifth-level spiritual plants, and the seeds of sixth-level spiritual plants are too rare. Li Mu has been collecting spiritual seeds of high-level spiritual plants for nearly a hundred years, but he has not been able to obtain many spiritual seeds of high-level spiritual plants.

It was impossible to form large-scale planting. Without knowing their corresponding spiritual plant attributes, Li Mu could not spare so much energy to take care of these high-level spiritual plants one by one. one

Through the art of prosperous years, if a large number of high-level spiritual seeds can be obtained to achieve a scale effect, Li Mu will plant them carefully.

Li Mu stared at the oldest and best-growing Bodhi Spirit Flower. Under his gift of supernatural power - identifying all spirits, the attributes of the Bodhi Spirit Flower were clearly presented before his eyes.

【Bodhi Spirit Flower】

[Grade: fifth-grade spiritual plant]

[Characteristics: Bodhi meditation, inspiration and speculation, spiritual tranquility, enlightenment and wisdom gathering, thread of Tao]

[Status: Bodhi tree has insufficient nourishment and slow growth. 】

[Bodhi Spirit Flower, a spiritual plant with the fifth-level Bodhi tree as its companion plant. Growth conditions: abundant spiritual power and rich field power. It needs Bodhi tree as a companion spiritual plant. It takes twenty years for the Bodhi Spirit Flower to take root, mature in fifty years, and form a Bodhi tree in a hundred years. Fruit, the Bodhi Spirit Flower with fifty-year medicinal properties is one of the main medicines for refining the Huixin Pill. The Bodhi Fruit is one of the main materials for refining the fifth-level Bodhi Pill and Lingyun Pill. 】

Li Mu picked up the ancient dead wood stick, concentrated his spiritual power in it, and faced the Bodhi Spirit Flower. A bunch of green spiritual light bloomed and fell on it. Immediately, a mysterious and powerful force acted on the Bodhi Spirit Flower. .

Soon, a magical scene appeared. As Li Mu's spiritual power was continuously transmitted, the Bodhi flower with its head hanging down suddenly became full of energy, and its branches and leaves became thicker at a speed visible to the naked eye. , grew taller rapidly, as if injected with chicken blood, and gradually became lush with flowers and leaves.
