Mortals cultivating immortality and the fate of immortal jade

The spiritual grass in Nuanyun Valley is green and growing gratifyingly.

With a smile on his face, Zhang Ruoxu watched Lin Mu perform the "Blue Water Jue" over and over again to bring rain to the cold tobacco.

Lin Mu's "Blue Water Jue" has reached the peak of the second level and is only one step away from the third level. Now, it can be said that giving rain is easy for him.

After Lin Mu finished applying the rain, he smiled and said to Zhang Ruoxu: "Brother, how about I learn planting from you?"

Zhang Ruoxu was not surprised by Lin Mu's question. He could see Lin Mu's love for planting. Zhang Ruoxu said calmly: "Why not? If you are willing, I can teach you some planting methods, and even a lifetime of planting experience. I can give it to you. But you have to think clearly, planting is a hard work, and every day It takes three to five months for a batch of spiritual herbs to mature. Some spiritual herbs even take more than half a year to mature. Are you willing to spend so much time on planting them? "

Lin Mu smiled and said: "You know that my cultivation speed is slow. Wasting a little time on planting will not have much impact. Besides, if you learn how to plant, you will not have to worry about eating and drinking in the future."

Zhang Ruoxu said quietly: "You are still young, so naturally you cannot realize the preciousness of time. I will tell you my experience. After listening, you can make your own decision whether to continue learning to plant."

Lin Mu humbly accepted the teaching and said, "I would like to hear the details."

Zhang Ruoxu suddenly asked: "How old do you think I am now?"

Lin Mu was startled, wondering why Zhang Ruoxu suddenly said this, but he still said truthfully: "Senior brother is so young, only around twenty."

Zhang Ruoxu smiled bitterly and sadly: "I am sixty-two years old this year."

Lin Mu was suddenly startled, and he still couldn't believe it. Zhang Ruoxu's face was so young, almost no different from him. He really couldn't believe that Zhang Ruoxu was already sixty-two years old, which was unbelievable.

Zhang Ruoxu didn't wait for Lin Mu to doubt, and gave the answer himself: "I took a beauty pill when I was young, so until now, my appearance has not changed. But I am indeed sixty-two years old, and my cultivation has just reached the level of Qi refining. On the ninth floor, if the foundation cannot be built early, it will not last long. "

Lin Mu hurriedly comforted him: "Senior Brother Jiren has his own destiny, and he will surely be able to build a foundation soon."

Zhang Ruoxu smiled sadly and said in a low voice: "Actually, my spiritual root qualifications are similar to yours. You have the Five Elements Spiritual Roots, and I have the Four Elements Spiritual Roots of Gold, Fire, Water, and Earth. My cultivation speed may only be slightly better than yours. When I was young, I also You have suffered a lot of unfair treatment. So, I see you as you were when you were young, but every bit of gain requires a lot of effort."

"At that time, I was also learning planting techniques." Zhang Ruoxu paused for a moment: "Except for the "Grass and Tree Technique", I have practiced all the other four techniques to the third level. Although life was once difficult. Improvement, and even being reused by the sect to take charge of this medicine garden. However, because I spent too much time on planting, despite my hard work, I am getting further and further away from the foundation. Now, in terms of planting, I am not boasting. No one can match me, but so what? I can't build a foundation. When I get older, the oil will dry up and finally turn into a handful of loess. I regret that I spent all my time on cultivation when I was young. , I won’t end up in this situation.”

"If you can't build the foundation, everything will be just a passing smoke and fleeting." Zhang Ruoxu murmured with pain on his face.

Lin Mu advised: "Senior brother, don't be so pessimistic. As long as you practice hard, you will eventually build a foundation."

Zhang Ruoxu's words shocked Lin Mu greatly. Life is short, and if you are not careful, you will go astray. Lin Mu was secretly grateful that Zhang Ruoxu could treat him sincerely and have a long talk with him.

Zhang Ruoxu was silent for a long time and said leisurely: "To me now, foundation building is like a flower in the mirror or the moon in the water. It seems within reach, but in fact there is little hope."

"As for whether to learn planting, the pros and cons are up to you. If you want to learn, I will teach you. If you don't want to learn, that's it." After Zhang Ruoxu said this, he slowly got up and walked out of the valley.

Lin Mu looked at Zhang Ruoxu's figure and was speechless. The steps taken by Zhang Ruoxu's young body were so desolate and desperate.

Lin Mu stood there for a long time, Zhang Ruoxu's stumbling figure kept circling in his mind, lingering.

He began to seriously consider the future. No one had ever taught him experience in this area before. Zhang Ruoxu's wasted life has great reference significance for him. He didn't want Zhang Ruoxu's tragedy to happen again to him.

No one wants to die if they can live well. Lin Mu's desire for foundation building was no less than Zhang Ruoxu's, especially since he still had a wish in his heart to go home and see his parents.

For Lin Mu, foundation building must be realized.

But, can you build a foundation just by practicing hard? Without spiritual stones or elixirs, building a foundation is just a luxury.

Lin Mu feels that he is luckier than Zhang Ruoxu because he has the Xuan Yue Pendant. There is a spiritual field inside, and all the spiritual herbs and elixirs he grows belong to him, and the elixirs he refines can improve his cultivation. Doubling the time would also speed up his practice a lot.

But Lin Mu was not overly optimistic. Doubling the time has pros and cons. The advantage is that his cultivation progress can keep up with others; the disadvantage is that his life passes twice as fast as others. Others can live eighty years, but he can only live forty years. Forty years later, if he cannot build the foundation, he will be like Zhang Ruoxu and waste his life.

Therefore, he cannot place all his hopes on the Xuan Yue Pendant. He wants to find a new way, he wants to refine elixirs.

Learning the Five Elements Planting Technique is to lay the foundation for the future. Sharpen your sword before chopping wood; everything you do now will help in the future.

After thinking about this, Lin Mu suddenly felt enlightened.

The breeze blows, and bursts of medicinal fragrance float in Nuanyun Valley, Lin Mu's spirit is shaken.

This was a sign that the spiritual grass was mature. Lin Mu followed the scent and found a piece of light blue spiritual grass in front of him. This kind of spiritual grass Lin Mu knew was called Xingkong Blue. The starry sky blue is mature and has many seeds on top. Lin Mu was filled with joy and began to carefully collect grass seeds. In order to prevent others from seeing the clues, he did not collect much land and only collected a few dozen seeds in total.

His purpose is simple, as long as he has grass seeds, everything will be easy to handle.

Putting the seeds in his arms, Lin Mu hurried back to the small courtyard.

Entering the rotating moon space, Lin Mu immediately started planting. From Lin Mu's point of view, planting Starry Sky Blue couldn't be simpler.

Using the earth spirit hoe to cultivate a piece of land, Lin Mu scattered the seeds of Xingkonglan.

Use the "Blue Water Technique" again and you're done.

The cold tobacco planted yesterday has returned to life. The pale white grass leaves look extremely pleasant and full of vitality. They are growing better than the cold tobacco in the medicine garden.

Lin Mu saw hope in it.
