Chapter 35 Punishing the Villain
Su Wen said without hesitation: "Take Huiling Grass as an example. Its original growth cycle is one year. If you practice the Spring Breeze and Rain Technique for a long time, you can shorten the growth cycle to nine months."
Su Qingwu continued to ask: "Is this the maximum effect that can be achieved?"
Su Wen nodded slightly: "Not bad, at most it can shorten the growth cycle by a quarter."
Su Qingwu thought of a key issue and felt a little worried.
"The cultivation of spiritual plants in the sect is recorded at the corresponding time. If we harvest them in advance, the stewards will definitely notice. Is the technique of speeding up the growth of spiritual plants rare in this world?"
Su Wen hesitated and responded:
“For other sects, it must be rare, but Qingwu, you are in Qianzhi Sect, so it is impossible that you don’t have this kind of magic.
Speaking of this art of turning spring breeze into rain, it was obtained by me when I explored an ancient cultivator’s cave in the past. It is just a technique and cannot be considered a treasure.
If Qianzhi Sect doesn't have it, you can just tell them the content of the technique directly when they ask you.
You won't suffer any loss by doing this. The sect will gain benefits and will certainly not make things difficult for you. They may even give you a reward.
Of course, if something unexpected happens and those old guys get kicked in the head by a donkey, and after you tell them the content of the magic, they turn against you, then there is no need for you to stay in this sect.
Then I can wait for an opportunity to leave, become a free cultivator, or join other forces. Dongxuanzhou is not dominated by Qianzhi Sect alone, so there are many choices."
This made sense. Su Qingwu nodded thoughtfully and didn't ask any more questions.
Not long after, she sat cross-legged on the mat and continued to practice the new technique.
This time, the technique attempted was the Lingxiao Resurrection Technique.
As a profound technique, its difficulty in practicing is comparable to that of the Art of Generating Rain with Spring Breeze.
Under Su Wen's guidance, it took him nearly two hours to successfully master this technique!
Su Qingwu wanted to try out some magic.
However, apart from the Huiling grass, there are no other plants in the courtyard.
She simply went outside, locked onto a tall weed, and quickly pinched it with her hands.
A faint spiritual light quickly condensed in front of him and immediately fell into the weeds.
The latter withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the same time, a green ball of light about the size of a thumb slowly emerged from the weeds and hovered in mid-air.
This is the source of plant vitality.
Su Qingwu cast a spiritual spell, captured it in his palm, and then returned to the bluestone courtyard.
He picked a Huiling grass that was in relatively poor condition in the spiritual field in the courtyard, pinched a few fingers, and the green light ball quickly sank into it.
The vitality of the entire spiritual plant grew at a speed visible to the naked eye. This lasted for about five breaths before it slowly stopped.
With this technique, you can basically guarantee a 100% survival rate when cultivating spiritual plants in the future!
Su Qingwu was overjoyed. He returned to the house and told Su Wen about this matter.
After a while, he continued to practice the fourth technique, the Art of Vast Sea and Waves.
This is a water-attribute attack technique. The power of the spell increases continuously as your cultivation level improves.
The vast sea of waves, as the name suggests, means using waves to attack the enemy.
When used, the water spirit power turns into a torrent, forming multiple layers of huge waves and rushing towards the enemy.
When Su Wen talked about this method, he specifically mentioned that although the Vast Sea Dielang Jue seemed to consume a lot of spiritual energy at first glance, it was not the case in actual operation.
Even if one is at the third level of Qi Refining, one can still continue to perform the spell for about twenty breaths.
As night fell, Su Qingwu successfully mastered this technique!
It was dinner time, and after going out for dinner, he went to Shanlan Peak and cast a spell to water the Qingxin grass.
In order to complete the task as soon as possible, she replaced the Small Spirit Rain Technique with the Spring Breeze Rain Technique.
According to Su Wen, slowing down the speed of spiritual power circulation as much as possible did indeed extend the casting time.
Just as she finished her watering task and was about to return to Cuimu Peak, she heard a sound similar to footsteps on branches.
Noticing this movement, Su Qingwu secretly became alert.
Is there anyone outside the yard?
Because it is close to the top of the mountain, there are no other courtyards nearby.
Since someone appears here, the purpose is self-evident.
At this moment, she thought of the questioning and testing she had received from many fellow disciples in the past two days. She had a rough guess in her mind and immediately contacted Su Wen through the soul contract.
"At night, Su Wen, your movements should not be restricted?"
The response came quickly from the inside.
"There are indeed no restrictions at night, Qingwu, you asked this, but what happened at Shanlan Peak?"
"Just now, I found a person outside the courtyard. Su Wen, you should know that this place is close to the top of the mountain and there are no other courtyards. Normally, no monks will come here. I am worried that the other party has other purposes."
"I understand. You can leave without worry. I will be there to watch over you tonight."
"Okay, thank you."
After the message was transmitted, Su Qingwu felt relieved.
After waiting for a while, she closed the gate and slowly left.
Not long after she left, a young man with the cultivation level of the fifth level of Qi Refining slowly appeared under a willow tree not far outside the courtyard.
He walked to the wall, jumped lightly, climbed over the wall swiftly, and went into the yard easily.
This scene just happened to fall into the eyes of Su Wen who had already arrived here.
Her eyes were cold as she walked silently through the courtyard wall. She saw the young man looking around as if he was looking for something and talking to himself.
"That shouldn't be the case. Am I overthinking it? There's nothing unusual here."
"The Qingxin grass in this yard will be mature in less than a month. That Junior Sister Su is really lucky!"
"I really can't accept this! If only I could hold on at that time..."
Looking at the large area of spiritual plants that were growing well, the young man felt frightened.
"Anyway, there's no one around now. If I destroy these Qingxin grasses, no one will know it was me who did it. Then I'll see how Su Qingwu will explain himself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a ball of fire gathered in the palm of the young man's hand. He was about to swing it towards the spiritual field. At this moment, a strong wind blew up in the courtyard.
The young man was interrupted in the middle of performing a magic trick. He was startled and shouted in panic, "Who is it? Who is playing tricks?"
I called out several times, but no one responded.
Not long after, another gust of wind came towards him and knocked the young man to the ground.
Su Wen originally wanted to kill him, but considering that his death here might implicate Qingwu, he temporarily changed his mind.
The man was knocked unconscious by the spell and thrown directly to the foot of the mountain.
In order to prevent the other party from complaining first after waking up, she used the method of entering the dream to erase the person's memory of tonight.
If this person has evil thoughts again in the future, he will be affected by the dream-entering technique and will gradually develop inner demons.
In the end, you will end up like Ning Yuan.
......
On the morning of the second day, the young man who had fainted at the foot of the mountain was found by a fellow disciple who passed by and immediately woke him up.
As he rolled all the way down, he had many scrapes on his body, a broken right leg, and his head hit a boulder, causing him to bleed a lot.
If he was not a cultivator, if a mortal encountered such a situation, he would have died long ago.
After waking up, the young man didn't know what happened and his eyes were filled with confusion.
Several of his fellow disciples thought he had accidentally fallen from a height and did not take it too seriously.
After all, there have been examples of this in the past. People in the Qi Refining Stage cannot fly, and living in the mountains is not without danger...
