"You can't judge a person by his appearance. Tao Xiuyun's character changed drastically after he got the treasure. He even planted insects in the fields!"

"Alas, this insect plague has caused countless Taoist friends to lose their homes and lives."

"Fellow Daoist Diao Xiu did a good thing before he died. By some strange coincidence, he exposed Tao Xiuyun's conspiracy."

The monks on the hilltop were talking about it.

One of the older spiritual plant masters with white hair suddenly said,

"Speaking of which, isn't that too coincidental?

Not long after Diao Xiu died, the people from the Discipline Department arrived. I saw clearly that day that Senior Brother Zhong Kou was about to leave, but it seemed that he suddenly discovered something unusual, so he suddenly launched the attack. "

"There's a hidden story? Tell me quickly, I have a friend who also wants to..."

Listening to everyone's discussions, Li Qinglin remained expressionless, exuding a cold temperament, and queued silently.

Naturally, he was the one who reported it, and he was also the one who caused the change.

Report + remote backstab, this combination of punches, or deliberate, how could Tao Xiuyun withstand it? He left a backhand in Li Qinglin's spiritual field, played a dirty trick, and was harmed by him.

Every sip and every bite has its destiny.

After a while, it was Li Qinglin's turn.

There were several Taoist children in the hall, and Senior Ge was sitting behind the counter.

Senior Ge glanced at Li Qinglin with a meaningful look in his eyes.

A few days ago, a cultivator covered his head and face, restrained his breath, and came secretly to report Tao Xiuyun.

Others may not know, but how could it be hidden from Senior Ge who has perfected his Qi training? However, this is a trivial matter. Senior Ge not only does not care, but also looks up to Li Qinglin.

"This kid knows how to kill with a borrowed knife, and he is also a sinister character!"

Senior Ge nodded secretly, feeling that Li Qinglin had some of the style he had when he was young.

Without saying much, he crossed out Li Qinglin's name on the list and then distributed the compensation allowance.

A bag of red glutinous rice seeds, eight spirit stones, and some incense that can repel insects and scare away beasts.

"Thank you, senior."

Li Qinglin bowed respectfully and left quickly.

…

Didn't go back to the field directly.

Li Qinglin first went to Luofengpo and found the location of Diao Xiu's body in the peach forest.

It is lonely and desolate, with only three or two crooked peach trees.

The mocking crows cackle from the branches.

No one came to pay their respects.

Li Qinglin set up an altar and held a ceremony here, and established a small Yimakou.

Then silently recite the "Lingbao Infinitely Saving People's Supreme Wonderful Sutra" to help him to be liberated.

This Sutra of Saving People is a must-have for everyone in the world of immortal cultivation and is worth two spirit stones.

After the salvation was completed, Li Qinglin said silently to himself, "Fellow Daoist Diao Xiu, there is no need to repay you in the next life. You are troubling me as well. If there is reincarnation, please reincarnate as soon as possible."

Afterwards, Li Qinglin rode on the paper crane and flew away.

…

Return to Lingtian.

The spiritual fields that were previously infested with insects were inspected by people sent by the Taichu Taoist Palace to ensure that there were still some aphids that had not been completely eliminated.

So now the surrounding area is gradually regaining its vitality.

Many spiritual plant masters rushed back to farm.

now,

Li Qinglin took out the seeds of red japonica rice and silver vein sunflower.

The red japonica rice is shaped like an insect egg, but is clean and transparent, with only a faint red color lingering inside.

Red japonica rice is considered one of the mainstream spiritual rices in the world of immortal cultivation. Although it is only of the lower first grade, long-term consumption has the wonderful effect of enhancing the body's spiritual energy and increasing physical strength.

The market price varies every year, and the price of each dou of rice is about two spirit stones.

The silver-veined sunflower seeds are covered with a black shell. They are not very attractive in appearance, but they have a faint fragrance.

Mature silver-veined sunflower has the effect of enlightening the mind and slightly dispelling inner demons. It is also one of the more popular spiritual plants to harvest.

Li Qinglin first selected plump seeds, soaked yellow paper in water, and covered the seeds with it.

Two days later, the seeds began to germinate.

Li Qinglin then planted the red japonica rice seeds and silver vein sunflower seeds with the tip facing downwards.

Keep distance and make them sparse and distinct.

In the end, the red japonica rice seeds occupied half of the spiritual field, and the silver-veined sunflower only occupied a quarter.

There is still a piece of soil left to be planted.

"Spring Rain Technique!"

Although he could not farm during this period, Li Qinglin was not idle and learned the necessary spells for a spiritual plant master in advance.

Suddenly, the spiritual energy within a radius of thirty or four feet gathered and turned into raindrops that fell down.

Li Qinglin moved and used the Spring Rain Technique again until the entire spiritual field was moistened, then he stopped.

Then he took out three ears of plantain and planted them among the inconspicuous weeds at the edge of the field.

He chose the path of a spiritual plant master, which was more of a cover for cultivating plantain.

The next step is to acquire resources and establish yourself in the world of immortal cultivation.

"It seems that I can't be too diligent in the future. I have to follow Tao Sheng's example and make the bean sprouts thinner."

Li Qinglin thought silently.

Then he looked at the empty piece of land and began to think about what to plant best to make full use of this acre of spiritual field.

"Cloud pine? Jiao Pan tree? Without the shade of spiritual trees, it feels a little off..."

But generally speaking, the price of spiritual tree seedlings is more expensive.

Moreover, the growth cycle is extremely long, and it is easy to send people away first.

It often takes the entire family, dozens of generations, working hard to grow the tree to maturity.

Of course, if it is nourished by spiritual veins or planted in special soil such as Xirang, it will grow faster.

Therefore, the planting of spiritual trees can only be postponed for the time being.

"Growth cycle..."

Li Qinglin's eyes flickered. This was an eternal problem for spiritual plant masters.

Therefore, practitioners of Qigong often prefer to plant spiritual plants such as red glutinous rice and silver-veined sunflower, which can be harvested once a year or even more than once a year.

However, for Li Qinglin, who possessed the Three-Spike Plantain, there seemed to be a way to shorten the growth cycle of the spiritual plant.

[Other clones: Jade Yuanchan (54% transformation), Three Spike Plantain (3% transformation)]

Due to the fact that it had been in the secular world for a long time, the transformation speed of the three-spike plantain was very slow, and it even felt a little depressed.

But at this moment, as it is planted in the spiritual field, it is bathed in the spiritual rain.

The rice-ear-like flower stem in the middle slowly straightens up, the petals around it unfold, and the emerald green color gradually fills the surface, looking gorgeous and tempting.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

And in Plantain's vision, heaven and earth belong to all kinds of floating spiritual energy.

now,

Under its control, plantain worked hard to take root downwards, penetrate the soil, and expand its root system in all directions, combing the veins of the earth in the spiritual field.

Slowly, the plantain could clearly sense that a young bud of the silver-veined sunflower next to its root had a vague consciousness coming out, "Grow, grow, grow..."

Under the control of plantain, its roots not only did not compete for nutrients from the young shoots, but instead combed the veins of the earth and attracted spiritual energy.

This young sprout is growing slowly at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

After an hour, it was actually slightly larger than other young shoots and even began to grow.

Plantain estimated that it shortened its growth by at least two days!

Seeing this, Plantain was overjoyed.

It can ripen spiritual plants.

A certain ancient magical artifact, a small green bottle, can also be used to ripen spiritual plants.

Rounding it off, it is comparable to a magical weapon.

"At present, it seems that the growth rate can be increased by more than twenty times? But this is only for the silver vein sunflower, which is only a first-level low-grade spiritual plant.

The higher the ripening level of the spiritual plant, the lower the improvement rate will be. "

Plantain pondered secretly.

But even so, the clone of Three-Spike Plantain alone can not only attract spiritual energy to increase the speed of cultivation, but also ripen spiritual plants.

"The journey of cultivating immortals is long, and I, Li Qinglin, don't know how far I will go..."

Not far away, rime was floating in the mountains, and the lush trees were rustling in the wind.

It wrinkles the light and shadows, and also mottles time.

Half a year later.

The two low-grade spirit stones in Li Qinglin's hands turned into powder, his aura suddenly surged, and he successfully broke through to the third level of Qi training.

"It takes two and a half years to cultivate immortality. This speed is in no way inferior to that of a mid-grade spiritual root."

Li Qinglin clapped his hands in joy.

During this period, he also learned the Wood Release Technique, which allowed him to quickly move among plants within a certain range, greatly improving his survivability.

Of course, Wood Release can also be used in soil, rocks, water, etc., but the speed and breath-concealing effect are far inferior to those between plants of compatible zodiac signs.

Originally, Li Qinglin had also taken a fancy to a technique called "Li Dai Tao Jiang" (a substitute for a dead person), which could allow a dead person to live again when faced with a crisis of certain death.

It’s a pity that in order to perform this method, special spiritual trees such as peach and willow are needed as substitutes.

I couldn't find a suitable one at the moment, so I had to give up.

As for the realm of martial arts, since I have been using Plantain's vision from time to time over the past six months to observe the energy of heaven and earth, in a sense, it fits the third realm of nourishing the spirit, the true meaning of the will of heaven and earth.

His spiritual power had also improved significantly, and he was only one step away from reaching the third realm.

Buzz buzz buzz...

The sound of the Thousand Mile Sound Transmission Talisman was heard.

Li Qinglin took out the Thousand Mile Sound Transmission Talisman and immersed his consciousness into it.

It turned out that the historical sound transmissions he had accumulated during his retreat had reached nine hundred and ninety-nine.

[Fan Shang: Which fellow Taoist has a male enhancement pill? My nearest market is sold out. Urgent!]

[Ji Yu: Haha, Fellow Daoist Fan sent an urgent letter late at night. It seems that he is very anxious. I will send someone to deliver the pills immediately. It will arrive in half an hour. Is one bottle enough? ]

【Fan Shang: Thank you! 】

[Tong Ruo: Why don't you learn from us and practice multiple skills to establish your career and gain a foothold? I have successfully drawn a first-class mid-grade talisman, and the hall master praised me as a one-in-a-million talent in talisman making! ]

[Fan Shang: What Tong Daoyou said is absolutely right... As the old saying goes, if you meet a good person, you should first start a family; if you meet a noble person, you should first start a career; if you meet a rich woman, you should start a family and a career. I have already established a family and a career.]

【Recorded in: ……】

【Tong Ruo: ……】

[Shang Xuan: Which fellow Taoist knows that when I used Silver Vein Sunflower to refine the Mingxin Pill, the process and the temperature were perfectly matched, and the moment the furnace was started, it shone with silver light. However, there were insect marks and cracks on the surface of the finished pill. I asked many alchemy brothers, but they didn’t know why.]

[Tong Ruo: This question is so difficult. It only took me half a month to draw the Soul Fusion Talisman successfully, and the success rate was maintained at 60%! The hall master said that it took him almost two months back then! ]

Seeing Shang Xuan's question, Li Qinglin thought for a moment and slowly transmitted his voice, "Han Fei: Fellow Daoist Shang can check whether the sunflower seeds of the silver vein sunflower used contain eggs of white grubs, geometrid moths, etc. They are invisible to the naked eye and must be soaked in the blood of Ran Yixi to be discovered."

Just as the message was delivered, Tong Ruo sent another message.

[Tong Ruo: Fellow Daoist Han knows a lot... Have you ever used the Soul Fusion Talisman? It can temporarily connect the magic power of multiple people. It is most suitable for compatriots and blood relatives to use. It is very valuable.]

[Shang Xuan: Thank you, Fellow Daoist Han. I will try it first and reply later.]

Ignoring Tong Ruo who was still muttering about the Soul-Releasing Talisman, Li Qinglin put away the Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Talisman, slowly stood up, and walked out of the underground secret room onto the ground.

Push open the door, walk out of the courtyard and come to the spiritual field.

The spiritual stone powder used just now was not wasted. Li Qinglin poured it into the soil near the plantain and used it as wood ash.

He looked at the lush and vibrant spiritual plants in the spiritual field with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

In the past six months, one crop of red japonica rice was harvested, totaling one stone and three dou.

The growth cycle of silver-veined sunflower is shorter. Two crops were harvested, totaling six stone and five dou.
