Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

"Your Majesty, do you have second-level talisman paper for sale, preferably second-level gold talisman paper." Li Mu reached out to accept the invitation and looked at Lin Huirong and asked.

After selling 10 second-level talismans to Duan Pinghai, only 10 were left for self-defense. Li Mu planned to draw more and make more, but he didn't have the materials.

To draw the second-level spiritual talisman, you need to use the skin of the second-level monster animal skin to draw the second-level high-grade spiritual talisman. It is best to have the same attributes.

Using first-level talisman paper, you can only draw second-level low-grade talismans at most, and the failure rate is a bit high. However, second-level talisman paper is relatively scarce, and you need to hunt down second-level monsters to get it.

"Second-order gold talisman skin, Mr. Li, can you draw the second-order gold sword talisman and golden armor talisman?" Lin Huirong was slightly startled and looked at Li Mu and asked in surprise.

Last time, Li Mu bought a second-level talisman fragment from Wanbao Pavilion, which was a gold talisman.

"Not yet. I have some ideas in my research. I need to use the second-level talisman paper to test the painting. Do you have the goods?" Li Mu explained with a smile.

"That's it. Mr. Li, please wait a moment, let me take a look!" Lin Huirong nodded, quickly read the inventory, and responded: "There are some second-level talisman papers in stock, but they are fire and earth talisman skins. Is it usable?"

Since gold is born from earth, it should be possible to use earth-based talisman paper.

"How to sell it? I want the soil talisman skin." Li Mu said quickly.

"One second-level talisman paper has 15 lower spirits, and there are 34 more earth-type ones. If you want it, please give me 5 middle spirits!" Lin Huirong signaled.

Wanbao Pavilion is really good at doing business. The second-level demon ape talisman skin I bought last time at Liu's Talisman Shop only cost 9 enchantments.

However, this thing was too scarce, so Li Mu could only accept the price and paid the bill with 5 Zhongling.

"Master Li, please wait a moment!" Lin Huirong accepted the spirit stone and turned to go to the warehouse to pick up the goods.

Not long after, Li Mu came out of Wanbao Pavilion as if he was running away. If he continued to stay, the spiritual stones in his storage bag would be emptied.

Li Mu walked around Qing'an Town for a while and purchased materials for making wine, several large barrels of rice wine, more than ten kilograms of spiritual honey,...

After a while, Li Mu's sword landed on Xiaoliang Mountain and became busy.

The brewing process of Cuiling fruit wine is very simple.

Li Mu used all his strength in the direction of the spiritual field to cast a spell of wind and rain, summoning a downpour of spiritual rain. Then, his spiritual thoughts controlled the green spiritual fruits in the fruit frame to fly up one after another.

Tens of thousands of Green Spirit Fruits flew into the spiritual rain together and were quickly washed away.

Then, Li Mu took out seven large wooden barrels from the storage bag, and controlled tens of thousands of Green Spirit Fruits with his spiritual consciousness to fly to the top of the barrels.

Li Mu's spiritual consciousness 'squeezed hard', and the emerald green fruits exploded in an instant, bursting into pulp, the core and flesh separated, and the green juice flowed in the barrel with a 'squeaking' sound.

"Papa papa..." The fruit cores fell back into the fruit frame like raindrops, and the pulp fell into the wooden barrel one after another.

Li Mu took out a few barrels of rice wine, a dozen kilograms of spiritual honey, and some vanilla from the storage bag, and poured them evenly into seven wine barrels. Then, he covered the barrel lids, sealed them with mud, and put them into the storage room.

After two or three months of storage, this batch of Cuiling wine is almost ready.

After completing the task of brewing Cuiling wine, Li Mu caught several Cailing chickens that were running around the mountains, slaughtered one, and locked up the remaining ones.

Without the care of the red wolf, the spiritual rice was about to mature. He didn't have time to watch them eat the spiritual rice, so he simply prepared to eat it all.

Wash the slaughtered Cailing chicken, cut it into small pieces and put it in a clay pot, then add some dried Ganoderma lucidum, dried Black Lingzhi mushroom, Yanling grass, astragalus,... and other medicinal herbs and ingredients, add a small amount of spring water, Prepare another can of rice and put it together in a large iron pot on the stove to stew.

Half an hour later, when the lid was opened, a large pot of meat was fragrant, and the delicious and nutritious stewed chicken was ready.

Li Mu couldn't wait to pick up a piece and put it into his mouth. The chicken meat was rotten in his mouth, and the medicinal power of various spiritual materials that had penetrated into the chicken came out in his mouth. It was fragrant, sweet, sweet... and the taste was rich and extremely delicious.

Li Mu sucked hard and sucked the spirit chicken clean from the bones. Then, he ate the spirit rice with the spirit chicken medicinal food in big mouthfuls.

Li Mu's mouth was full of oil after eating, his face was rosy and he was full of energy.

After a sumptuous dinner, night fell. Li Mu took out the ancient banyan heart cutting board and the tools for carving the puppet, sat at the table, and devoted himself to refining the core source of the puppet.

I saw that Li Mu used a set of hammers and knives to quickly and neatly divide the heart of the ancient banyan wood into eight pieces of similar wood. He took one piece and placed it in his hand, injecting a large amount of spiritual power to disperse the thunder element inside.

Then, Li Mu held the carving knife in his other hand and quickly started carving on the wood.

First, use the punching knife method. The blade is carved in a rushing motion around the core of the wood to clean up the useless part of the wood. Then, the carving knife changes to the astringent knife method, breaking through the resistance of the wood, slowly advancing along the wood grain, and carving puppet patterns on the surface. ,…

Sawdust fell like snow.

…

Li Mu was concentrating, only the carving knife and wood were in his eyes.

Half an hour later, Li Mu stopped carving, and a brown wooden ball the size of a baby's fist appeared on his hand, with a large number of complex lines on the surface.

Some of the lines are floating on the surface, some are sunken in, and some are three-dimensional... They are extremely delicate and magical.

Li Mu looked at the half-finished puppet source core, and a relaxed smile broke out on his face. It's not easy!

To carve the third-level puppet source core, eleven carving techniques including negative carving, relief carving, round carving, through carving, etc. were used, and finally the carving of the puppet formation pattern on the surface of the original core was completed.

Next, there is only one step left, which is to use spiritual consciousness to carve the interior, micro-carve the main puppet pattern, and connect the puppet pattern of the entire source core from the outside to the inside.

Li Mu took a short rest and adjusted his mentality. Then he gathered his consciousness and turned it into a carving knife. He devoted himself wholeheartedly to it and began to carve inside the original core of the puppet.

The three times stronger soul allowed the carving knife condensed by Li Mu's spiritual consciousness to last longer. The carving knife transformed by wisps of spiritual consciousness followed the internal lines of the ancient banyan tree's heart and carved the puppet pattern inside.

About a quarter of an hour later, Li Mu's face was slightly happy, he completed the internal carving of the puppet pattern, and gathered his spiritual power from his palm.

The next second, the entire puppet source core shone with spiritual light. After absorbing the spiritual power, it levitated on its own. The puppet array pattern on the surface released streams of spiritual pressure, as if it was driving something.

"Haha! It's done! The puppet source core is made!" Seeing this scene, Li Mu laughed happily.

The puppet source core is equivalent to a 'chip', which is engraved with various puppet formations. It accepts the master's spiritual consciousness instructions, converts them into action instructions and feeds them back, drives the puppet formations, and controls the main body of the puppet to move. As for the driving force of the puppet, Relying on the spiritual power array in the puppet's body, the inlaid spiritual stones are the power source of the spiritual power array.

The most complicated part of refining a puppet is the puppet source core.

Li Mu inspected it for a while and confirmed that the puppet source core was perfect, and then continued to carve a new puppet source core.
