Deep in the Ten Thousand Mountains, in the Jade Cave.
Lu Qing was sitting cross-legged in the cave where he usually practiced martial arts.
The spiritual energy around his body gathered and was quickly absorbed by him.
Fortunately, we are in the Yuhua Cave, where there is an ancient formation that gathers spiritual energy.
If he were in Jiuli Village, the simple formation set up by Lu Qing would probably not be able to meet his current cultivation needs.
A large amount of spiritual energy was continuously absorbed into Lu Qing's body and transformed into the five elements of spiritual power.
Then it is refined and purified by the Five Elements Gourd in the Dantian.
It was unknown how long it had been, but the suction force in Lu Qing's dantian increased greatly, sucking away all the spiritual energy in the jade cave.
As a result, the large formation was unable to supply enough supplies for a while.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Qing's whole body shook and a precious light appeared on his body.
An extremely powerful aura emerged from him.
A phantom suddenly emerged from a small tripod hanging on Lu Qing's neck and floated in the air.
"Yan" looked at the rich white light on Lu Qing's body with complicated eyes.
"I have made another breakthrough. In just a few months, I have broken through from the initial stage of Qi Refining to the middle stage of Qi Refining, and now to the great stage of Qi Refining.
This person's cultivation talent is really too terrifying."
"Yan" was shocked and amazed.
During these few months, he watched Lu Qing practice.
To be honest, Lu Qing’s training in “Yan” was not very hard.
Every day, there are all kinds of trivial things to do.
Either she is taking care of the spiritual fields and medicinal fields, or she is supervising Xiaoyan and Xiaoli's studies.
Or I would go into the kitchen and prepare food for everyone.
He also often worked with the old doctor to treat illnesses and make medicine for nearby villagers who came up the mountain to seek medical treatment, doing good deeds and accumulating virtue.
He would even occasionally go outside the village to fish for Xiaoli, and they would often fish for half a day.
The time spent on spiritual practice every day is really very little.
Not to mention hard work, it can almost be described as lazy.
If there was a disciple as lax as Lu Qing in the Lihuo Sect back then, he would definitely be punished.
In more serious cases, there is a possibility of being expelled from the sect.
However, it was with Lu Qing's careless and extremely casual attitude towards practice.
"Yan" watched him break through from the initial stage of Qi Refining to the middle stage of Qi Refining in just over a month.
Now, almost two months have passed, and I have continued to break through from the middle stage of Qi Refining to the great stage of Qi Refining.
The most important thing is, he was practicing the [Five Elements Body Refining Technique] which was notoriously slow in practice during the ancient times of cultivating immortals!
You know, if it were someone else, with such a short period of time, they probably wouldn’t even be able to learn this technique.
In the past two or three months, "Yan" has never been seen once, and Lu Qing has never been worried about his practice.
Even his cultivation had never stagnated.
Although there is not much time for practice every day, "Yan" can clearly feel that Lu Qing is getting stronger almost every moment.
So the longer it stays with Lu Qing, the more it can feel it.
Lu Qing has a terrifying potential hidden deep within his body, which is vast, unfathomable and terrifying.
Unconsciously, "Yan" began to feel that if he continued to follow Lu Qing.
Maybe there will come a day when it will be free from the cage.
After a while, the precious light on Lu Qing's body faded, his aura also gradually subsided, and he opened his eyes.
His eyes were as gentle as jade, and as deep and calm as the sea.
"Congratulations, young master, for successfully breaking through to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining."
"Yan" congratulated immediately.
"It's just a small breakthrough, not worth mentioning." Lu Qing said calmly.
He has the Five Elements Gourd as his life force, which helps him to refine pure spiritual power at all times.
It seemed that he didn't spend much time on cultivation.
In fact, his cultivation has been continuously growing day and night.
In addition, the baptism of the heavenly tribulation and the nine original energies laid a solid foundation for him.
In Lu Qing's opinion, it was normal to break through two small realms in a few months.
“Although it is only a small realm breakthrough, my dear, you have an extraordinary physical talent and a strong foundation.
You have only reached the great stage of Qi Refining, but you have already reached the level where your body is radiant with precious light. I am afraid that ordinary cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage are no match for you."
The word "Yan" is not flattery.
Although Lu Qing is now in the Qi Refining Stage, the white light emanating from his body is extremely strong.
The strength of his physical body is not inferior to that of a cultivator who has reached the peak of the foundation-building stage.
If a real fight breaks out, even without using magic weapons or other means, he would probably be able to defeat most of the Foundation Establishment cultivators with just his physical strength.
Lu Qing shook his head and didn't say anything.
The cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage already have some understanding of the rules of heaven and earth.
The means that can be mobilized are far beyond the Qi Refining Stage.
Although he is very powerful now, he has not yet reached that level.
If you really encounter an enemy of that level, it is hard to say whether you can win with physical strength alone.
"Senior Yan, how long did I spend in seclusion this time?"
"Not long, just three days."
"Three days?" Lu Qing nodded, "Before I entered the mountain, the spiritual grains in the spiritual fields were almost fully mature.
This time when I go back, I can harvest it.”
Yes, the batch of spiritual grains that Lu Qing had planted a few months ago were finally ready to be harvested after a period of careful care.
Lu Qing had originally wanted to reap the harvest three days ago, but suddenly he felt the opportunity for a breakthrough.
Therefore, he made a temporary decision to go into seclusion in the mountains and postpone the time of harvesting the spiritual grain slightly.
Thinking of this, Lu Qing's heart became a little excited.
He immediately left the Yuhua Cave, went out of the valley, and quickly headed towards the village.
While hurrying on the road, Lu Qing was also sensing the situation in the forest.
Then he discovered that after several months, the spiritual energy in the mountains had become much richer.
The vegetation also became more lush, and many of the already very tall trees became even bigger.
As for poisonous insects, snakes and the like, there is no need to mention them.
Not only is its toxicity stronger, but its size has also begun to mutate.
While on the journey, Lu Qing could occasionally see colorful, face-sized poisonous spiders.
If it weren't for his high level of cultivation, the aura emanating from his body would have prevented those poisonous creatures from approaching him.
If a weaker warrior came in, he would probably be besieged by all kinds of poisonous creatures.
"These Hundred Thousand Mountains have almost completely become a restricted area for humans where no one is allowed to enter.
Except for powerful monks who have achieved great success in their cultivation, ordinary warriors who come in will probably have no chance of survival."
Lu Qing felt the changes in the mountains and thought to himself.
After returning to the village, I will once again warn the villagers not to enter the mountains easily.
At Lu Qing's current speed, it won't take much time to get back to Jiuli Village from the Yuhua Cave.
Not long after, he returned to the village.
After sensing the formation and finding nothing unusual, Lu Qing went straight to the courtyard halfway up the mountain.
Just then I saw Master, Uncle Zhang and several other elderly people from the village standing by the spiritual field, staring at the spiritual grains in the field with some worry.
"Master, Grandpa Zhang, Grandpa Chen..." Lu Qing went over to pay his respects.
"Ah Qing, you're out of retreat?" The old doctor was startled and turned around in surprise. "I was just wondering whether I should harvest this spiritual valley. You're back just in time!"
"Is the spiritual valley fully ripe?" Lu Qing asked.
"It's ripe. I just asked Old Man Zhang and the others, and they all said that this spiritual grain can still be ripe. If it is not harvested, it will probably fall." said the old doctor.
This was also the reason why he was worried just now.
The spiritual grain was planted by Lu Qing, and now that it is time to harvest, he has temporarily gone into seclusion.
If the fruits are not harvested in time, they will ripen and fall into the soil, which would be a pity.
After all, this is a spiritual object, and every grain of rice is quite precious.
Fortunately, Lu Qing came back in time, so he didn't have to worry about it.
"Yes, Ah Qing, if you don't collect this spiritual valley, I'm afraid it will be wasted a lot."
Uncle Zhang and others also said this at this time.
Lu Qing walked to the edge of the spiritual field and looked at the spiritual valley inside.
I saw the Linggu in the fields, each plant was hung with heavy rice ears, each grain was bright golden, full and distinct.
It is indeed the best time to harvest.
He nodded: "Grandpa Zhang and the others are right, this spiritual valley is indeed going to be collected."
"There is no time to lose. I'll go get the sickle." The old doctor said hurriedly.
"It just so happens that we have nothing to do, so we can help you collect them."
Uncle Zhang and several other elderly people also started rolling up their sleeves, ready to help.
However, Lu Qing didn't dare to let these old people work in the fields, so he quickly stopped them:
"Master, Grandpa Zhang, there's no need to go through so much trouble. I have a better way to harvest the spiritual grain. There's no need to use a sickle."
"A better way?" The old doctor was stunned.
"If we don't use a sickle to harvest rice, what else can we use?"
Uncle Zhang and his companions were even more confused.
"Use this."
After Lu Qing finished speaking, he smiled slightly, took off the Qiankun Yiqi bag from his waist, threw it forward, and threw it into the air.
Under the urging of his mind, the Qiankun Qi bag in the air grew in the wind, and soon it grew to the size of half a room.
Then the opening of the cloth bag turned downwards, and a green light emerged from the opening of the bag and shone towards the spiritual field.
Wherever the green light reached, the spiritual grains in the spiritual fields fell off the rice ears, floated upwards, and were absorbed into the Qiankun Qi Bag.
The green light kept moving, and wherever it went, the spiritual valley was sucked away.
Not long after, the spiritual field of more than two acres was illuminated, and all the spiritual grains were collected into the Qiankun Yiqi Bag.
After all the spiritual grains were harvested, Lu Qing made another hand gesture and suddenly, green wind blades flew out from the Qiankun Qi bag and flew towards the spiritual field.
Swish, swish, swish…
The wind blade flashed, and in almost an instant, the rice plants that were originally standing upright in the field were cut off neatly and fell neatly in the field.
After doing all this, Lu Qing waved his hand, and the Qiankun Qi Bag quickly shrank and fell into his hand.
The whole process only took a few dozen breaths.
This scene naturally shocked Uncle Zhang and others.
They never expected that Lu Qing could harvest rice with such magical means.
And the speed was so fast that it was beyond their imagination.
You know, normally, when they harvest rice, the whole family goes out and it takes several days to harvest two acres of rice fields.
After all, harvesting rice is not an easy task.
In addition to cutting, the crops also need to be threshed, transported, and then air-dried and dried.
Every step is very hard.
I never thought that there would be such a convenient and fast harvesting method as Lu Qing's in the world.
All of a sudden, all the old men looked at the Qiankun Yiqi Bag in Lu Qing's hand with fiery eyes.
"Ah Qing, what kind of magic weapon do you have? It's so magical that it can also harvest rice automatically?"
Looking at the eager eyes of Uncle Zhang and others, Lu Qing understood what they were thinking.
He laughed and said, "Grandpa Zhang, this magic weapon is called Qiankun Yiqi Bag. It is a treasure I got by chance. It contains space and can hold everything."
"Good baby, good baby!"
After hearing this, the elderly people were even more amazed.
“By the way, Grandpa Zhang, when I came back from my last trip, I said I would treat the villagers to a meal.
But I never found any good opportunities afterwards.
It just so happens that the spiritual grains are ripe now, so tomorrow I will treat everyone to a meal of spiritual rice."
Lu Qing smiled.
"You want to use this magical rice to treat everyone in the village to a meal?" Uncle Zhang glared.
Although he didn't know what the effects of the magical rice grown by Lu Qing were.
But in the past few months, he has seen more than once that Lu Qing uses magic to water the spiritual fields every morning.
It goes without saying that rice grown and watered with magic must be extremely precious.
“Well, this batch of spiritual grain seeds was provided by everyone in the village.
Now that the spiritual grain is ripe, it is only right that we let everyone taste it. "
Lu Qing nodded.
"That's right. In that case, I'll tell everyone about this when I get back."
After hearing this, Uncle Zhang thought about it and did not object.
Seeing that Uncle Zhang agreed, the other elderly people naturally had no objections.
And they are also very curious about the taste of spiritual rice.
After all, they had seen what Linggu looked like before.
They have been farming for their entire lives, but have never seen rice of such good quality.
The plump grains look very tempting.
I don't know what the cooked rice tastes like.
"By the way, Ah Qing, are you planning to use these rice stalks and gentian as firewood?"
At this time, an old man suddenly asked.
"No." Lu Qing smiled and said, "These rice plants and platycodon grandiflorum are still very useful, it would be a waste to just burn them.
Grandpa Mu, do you like them?"
The old man was a little embarrassed and said, "I just think it would be a pity if such good rice and platycodon were burned."
I know Grandpa Mu is very good at weaving, and I also have something I want to ask you for help with."
Uncle Mu was stunned: "What's the matter?"
"I would like to ask you, Grandpa Mu, to weave these rice and platycodon into straw mats or pillows."
"This is easy, leave it to me!"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Mu patted his chest and indicated that there was no problem.
He was very confident in his craftsmanship, and no one in the surrounding area could weave better than him.
"Then I'll have to trouble Grandpa Mu."
Lu Qing smiled.
These rice and platycodon grow by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. They have their own spiritual charm and can be considered as spiritual objects.
If you can weave it into a straw mat or a futon and sleep on it for a long time, the spiritual charm in it can nourish the body and calm the mind.
It was also a pretty good treasure, so he didn't want to waste it.
