I rely on farming to transform the world of cultivation

Chapter 13: Sericulture and Silk Reeling

Fang Chen had expected this.

After all, making talismans is one of the hundred arts of cultivation. If it is so easy to learn, then talismans will not be worth much.

"The stability of mana transmission is fine, but the amount is a bit too much, exceeding the limit of the solid spiritual fiber."

He quickly found out the problem, spread another piece of talisman paper, dipped it in spiritual ink, and started trying.

This time it still failed.

"The amount of mana is too small to form a stable rune?"

Find out the reason, spread another piece of talisman paper, dipped it in spiritual ink, and continued to try.

Still failed.

"Too much spiritual ink..."

"This talisman paper has defects..."

"Distracted..."

...

"Success!"

After experiencing countless failures and summarizing countless lessons, Fang Chen finally appeared in front of a talisman of the Earth Spirit Curse, so that he shouted out excitedly.

After the excitement, looking at the talisman paper that had been reduced by more than 300 pieces, he also sighed: "The 100 arts of cultivation are really not easy. No wonder the basic inheritance market is everywhere, but not many people really get started."

Fang Chen failed more than 300 times even though he was good at mana control and had the help of spiritual thoughts. The difficulty of learning can be imagined.

You should know that making talismans is the simplest of the 100 arts of cultivation except for spiritual planting.

For ordinary casual cultivators who want to learn to make talismans, it is estimated that they will not be able to get tens of thousands of talisman papers. In addition to the loss of spiritual ink, the corresponding materials will cost thousands of spiritual stones.

This is only when there is a talent for making talismans.

The mentality must also be stable, otherwise, if you give up after being hit by failures again and again, you will never succeed.

After the talisman of the Earth Spirit Curse was drawn, Fang Chen was not proud and continued to learn other talismans.

This time he chose the Golden Thread Technique.

This is a gold planting spell, the effect is to condense a thin mana thread to kill the insects on the surface and even inside the spiritual plant.

At the same time, this is also the only spell with attack ability among the five elements planting spells.

In two months, Fang Chen also mastered the Golden Silk Technique, but in battle, the skilled Golden Silk Technique is not very useful.

It is different when it is made into a talisman.

The spell released by the talisman has no pre-casting swing, and multiple sheets can be superimposed, which greatly increases the suddenness and power of the spell, and can play a miraculous effect in battle.

When he leaves Lianyunfang City in the future, Fang Chen cannot guarantee that all the thief repair groups will give up on him because of his operation, so it is necessary to prepare some Golden Silk Technique talismans for self-defense.

With the experience of refining the Earth Spirit Curse, the refining of the Golden Silk Technique talisman went much more smoothly. Only a few dozen talisman papers were damaged, and a complete talisman was successfully drawn.

While the feeling was still there, he continued to draw the Golden Silk Technique talisman.

He stopped until the sun was high in the sky.

Looking at the more than one hundred finished talismans in front of him, Fang Chen couldn't help feeling proud.

"The success rate has stabilized at 30%, and I can already call myself a first-level talisman maker."

Fang Chen said proudly after calculating the talisman paper he had consumed.

One hundred first-level talisman papers plus a box of first-level spiritual ink cost two spiritual stones, while the price of the five-element planting spell talisman is one spiritual stone for ten pieces, and the gold silk talisman is even more expensive, with one spiritual stone for only eight pieces.

The success rate of 30% means that refining spiritual talismans can be profitable, and it is also a sign of entry into the art of talisman making.

Fang Chen originally planned to use up the talisman paper and spiritual ink he made before stopping, but this was obviously taken for granted.

His mana was used up first, and even his spiritual thoughts were mostly consumed.

You should know that his mana as a five-element cultivator is five times that of a single-attribute cultivator at the same level. His own mana can only draw more than a hundred talismans at a time. It can be seen that it is not so easy for a low-level talisman maker to earn spiritual stones.

Putting down the talisman pen, Fang Chen walked to the yard again, intending to meditate near the Moon Goddess Flower to restore his physical strength, and by the way, take a look at the spiritual silkworms in the wooden box.

The interior of the wooden box is now divided into small squares by wood chips, and there is a spiritual silkworm in each square.

The number of spiritual silkworms in each of the six wooden boxes is between thirty and forty.

Fang Chen bought fifty eggs of each type of spiritual silkworm, but not every egg was successfully hatched.

This is also a normal phenomenon, Zhou Xingyun reminded him when he bought it.

The hatching rate of more than 60% is enough to prove the quality of Lianyun Pavilion's goods.

So the items in it are also 10% or 20% more expensive than those outside.

When he came to the front of the wooden box, the small squares were not filled with spiritual silkworms, but colorful cocoons.

As early as a week ago, the spiritual silkworms raised by Fang Chen had entered the cocooning period.

Due to different feeding foods, the color of the silk on the spiritual silkworm cocoons is also different.

Ordinary spiritual silkworms are fed with ethereal grass and other spiritual plants that Fang Chen has endowed with the characteristics of the square inch space. The silk they spit out is bright silver, giving people a mysterious feeling.

The silk of the fire spiritual silkworm is red, the gold spiritual silkworm is golden, the earth spiritual silkworm is yellow, the wood spiritual silkworm is green, and the water spiritual silkworm is blue.

The six boxes surround the moon god flower, reflecting different lights under the illumination of the spiritual light, adding some color to the moon god flower and making it look more noble.

However, Fang Chen did not have the heart to appreciate this beautiful scenery. He was more concerned about these cocoons.

According to experience, the silkworms can be reeled seven to ten days after the cocoons are formed.

"It is better to do it today than to choose a day."

Looking at the cocoons hanging in the wooden grid, Fang Chen was extremely excited. With this batch of silk, he could start refining the spirit beast bag.

It could also be said that this batch of silk was the beggar version of the immortal palace he had been thinking about.

As for whether it would succeed, it depended on whether this batch of spirit silk could achieve the effect he wanted.

After releasing his spirit thoughts, Fang Chen found the spirit silk cocoons he had marked in advance in each wooden box.

This was the strongest pair of female and male silkworms in each type of spirit silkworm. He planned to keep them for breeding, and the others would be used for reeling silk.

As a descendant of the Chinese nation, he had some understanding of the process of reeling silk. He knew that this process would kill the silkworm pupae inside, so he had to keep a pair of breeding silkworms, otherwise he would have to buy silkworm eggs later.

After collecting the cocoons of the six kinds of spirit silkworms, Fang Chen took the cocoons into the kitchen.

After using the spirit rain technique to fill the pot with water, he threw all the spirit silkworms into the water.

Light a fire to boil water.

As the water temperature rose, messy cocoons spread out in the water.

With the help of spiritual thoughts, Fang Chen easily found the thread of a cocoon, reached out and grabbed it, and then kept winding it around a chopstick.

In this way, the originally tangled cocoon became a neat and orderly silk thread.

After successfully processing a cocoon, he also followed the same method and performed the same operation on other cocoons.

In the end, more than 200 cocoons were processed into silk threads wrapped around six chopsticks, and a pot of silkworm pupae that could no longer break out of the cocoon.

"Spiritual silkworm pupae are also very good for cultivation, so they can't be wasted."

Looking at the silkworm pupae in the pot, Fang Chen's appetite was also excited.

This is high-quality protein, not to mention that the spiritual silkworm pupae contain spiritual energy, which is also very helpful for the cultivation of cultivators in the Qi training period.

Especially the five-element spiritual silkworm, which matches the attributes of the practice he is currently practicing, and is of great benefit to him.

As for whether he would feel uncomfortable taking insects as food, he had no psychological burden in this regard. In his previous life, he loved to eat silkworm pupae.

After scooping a pot of silkworm pupae into a basin, Fang Chen took out some spiritual rice, put it directly into the water, covered the pot and started steaming.

Taking advantage of this time, he added some seasonings to the basin of spiritual silkworm pupae.

"Spiritual rice with spiritual silkworm pupae is much better than the fasting pill."

More than ten minutes later, Fang Chen, holding the rice bowl, sighed sincerely.

Although the fasting pill can fill you up, it can never compare to the enjoyment brought by real food.
