Chapter 49: Cultivate the dead species and popularize the breathing method!
"This bit of wood energy is of really high quality. If I practice it directly, I should be able to improve my cultivation of the Qingmu Changsheng Sutra by a small step and open three or four more acupoints."
However, Lu Feng restrained his idea of refining it and sent it into the dead seed of the energy-absorbing ancient tree.
If you absorb it yourself, at most you will open a few more acupoints and increase your magic power a little.
His cultivation of the Qingmu Changsheng Sutra is still at the level of a Taoist child, with no fundamental changes. It would be better for him to feed the wood energy to the dead seeds and let them germinate as soon as possible.
The core of practicing Qingmu Changshengjing is to cultivate the natal spirit plant. When the natal spirit plant becomes strong and grows, it can bring feedback and blessings to the practitioner.
Rare and powerful spiritual plants can improve the qualifications of practitioners and pave the way for practitioners to become earthly immortals in the future.
It’s fun for a moment, and it’s fun for a lifetime.
Lu Feng knows best what is more important.
Limited by the third-class wizard qualifications, Lu Feng has not become a formal wizard in most of his life. He understands the pain and torture of not having enough qualifications best.
He watched as apprentices younger than himself became official wizards, becoming people he needed to look up to and pay homage to.
Only Lu Feng himself knew how unforgettable that pain was.
Without thinking any more, Lu Feng sent the wood energy absorbed from his magic power to the dead ancient tree that was absorbing energy.
It was as if it smelled the rich fragrance of wood, and as the wood fragrance approached, it was absorbed by the dead species.
After absorbing the wood energy, the mysterious patterns on the surface of the dead seed slowly lit up, as if it was digesting the wood energy. Lu Feng, who was closely connected with it, also felt that the dead seed was slowly becoming stronger and more vigorous.
But that's all, just a wisp of wood energy is not enough to cause a drastic change in the dead species.
After observing the changes of the dead species, Lu Feng shook his head and said:
"It seems that one wisp of wood energy is not enough. I need to absorb more! I have to be busy now!"
After saying that, Lu Feng continued to use his magic power to absorb the wood energy from the ghost tree fragments to feed the dead seeds of the energy-absorbing ancient tree.
The wood energy in the ghost tree fragments was too stubborn, and Lu Feng could not absorb it quickly. It took him half an hour to absorb a strand the size of a grain of rice.
As the number of times he ingested increased, the amount of wood energy he ingested each time also increased.
Feeling the death species becoming stronger and stronger, Lu Feng was very pleased and enjoyed it.
But it must be said that absorbing wood energy is a very time-consuming task.
Fortunately, what Lu Feng lacks the least for the time being is time.
While Lu Feng was busy in the underground laboratory, two days passed and Baron Andre also returned from the quarry in the Black Rock Mountains.
The quarry resumed quarrying under the leadership of Baron André.
Although the villagers were still a little worried, with the guarantee from the Baron and the Wizard, they worked hard to mine the black rock for the sake of their wages.
With more work to do and more tiredness, the villagers naturally think less.
The mysterious black fog will slowly fade away from their lives, and when it is mentioned again in the future, it will probably be just a legend told to their children.
The quarry returned to normal, and batches of black rock were continuously transported into Kane Manor and piled up on the construction site.
The wizard tower that Lu Feng planned to build covered an area of 10,000 square meters, and the amount of black rock required was an astronomical number.
However, Lu Feng still had a lot of magic stones in his hands, which could be exchanged for countless gold coins. He didn't have to worry about not being able to pay for the labor and material costs of building the wizard tower.
The elemental pool, secret garden, and protective magic circle that will be built in the tower in the future, which require extraordinary materials, are the bulk of the wizard tower's expenses.
These ordinary materials and labor that can be purchased with gold coins are just a small part of the construction of the wizard tower.
What's more, Lu Feng has his second brother Andre to help him.
Don't underestimate your second brother Andre. He has accepted some of the advanced ideas proposed by Lu Feng. Hongye Town has been developing and changing slowly over the years. Today, Hongye Town is one of the richest places in the Tulip Kingdom.
The two brothers of the Hall family could not spend all the wealth accumulated in Hongye Castle even if they tried their best.
Needless to say, the gold coins were spent on the territory of Hongye Town, earned by the people of Hongye Town, and then flowed back to the second brother Andre through taxation.
The construction of the wizard tower has been underway for nearly a month, but Lu Feng has not spent a penny so far.
In this way, Lu Feng also feels like a gigolo.
However, there is no need to worry too much between brothers and family members.
By now, the construction of the wizard tower has changed from Lu Feng's personal matter to a major event for the entire Hongye Town.
Hongye Town needs Lu Feng, it needs a wizard to take charge, like a magic needle that can calm the wind and waves and bring peace and stability.
In addition to cultivating the dead species, Lu Feng also took time to inspect the construction site of Kane Manor.
I'm used to the speed at which tall buildings are built in a day using magic and puppets in the Botanical Garden. Now that I'm back home and see the slow speed at which ordinary people carry things on their shoulders or hands, I can't help but feel a little uncomfortable.
So, Lu Feng found his second brother Andre and suggested:
"Brother, what do you think about us spreading the Knight's Breathing Technique so that ordinary people can practice it and improve the physical fitness of the civilians in Red Leaf Town?"
"???"
Andre was frightened by Lu Feng's proposal. You know, in the Tulip Kingdom, and even in the entire Trandi sub-continent, the basis for the long-term rule of the nobles is the Knight's Breathing Method.
To spread the Knight's Breathing Method is to dig at the roots of the aristocracy.
As a member of the nobility, Andre naturally understood the seriousness of the matter.
However, having been Lu Feng's second brother for so many years, Andre already knew how dangerous his brother's thoughts were and had gotten used to it.
"Lester, do you know what the consequences of doing this will be?"
Andre asked seriously.
When the shocking proposal came out, Andre did not rush to object, but asked Lu Feng for his deeper thoughts.
"My idea is that the workers work too slowly. They are exhausted just carrying a stone weighing over 100 kilograms. It would be great if a group of knights could help me with the work!
Unfortunately, apart from Annie and Houston, my subordinates, there are only you and the cavalry captain in Hongye Town, and both of you hold important positions. I can't possibly let the two of you help me build the wizard tower!
Therefore, I plan to train more knights to help me do things!
As for the trouble of spreading the breathing method, with me in charge of Hongye Town, is there any noble who dares to cause trouble?"
"There's no need to spread Knight's Breathing throughout the territory! Why don't you recruit some young people and train them in Kane Manor?"
Andre made a final effort to persuade.
Lu Feng gave Andre a meaningful look in return, and continued with a smile:
"Brother, do you know what the scenery is like in many parts of Trudeau Continent?
The Knight's Breathing Method has become popular there, and children begin to practice the breathing method as soon as they reach a speed at which they can practice it. After they reach adulthood, most of them are at the knight level.
If you want to work or find a job, you will be rejected if you don’t have the strength of a knight.
Can you imagine a scene like that?
But the ordinary people there are still ruled by more powerful wizards. And the benefits brought by popularizing the Knight's Breathing Method are a more prosperous scene!"
Lu Feng described to Andre the benefits of popularizing the Knight's Breathing Method, which made Andre's face turn red and his head feel dizzy.
Andre was extremely confident that if he could really develop Red Leaf Town as his brother described, then he, Andre, would become the most outstanding Red Leaf Lord in the history of the Hall family.
After discussing with his second brother Andre and drawing up a detailed plan to popularize the Knight's Breathing Method, Lu Feng handed the rest of the work to Andre.
After all, popularizing breathing techniques is a major event involving tens of thousands of residents in Hongye Town, and it needs to be done step by step.
Only by persevering for a long time can the effect be seen.
After leaving Red Leaf Castle, Lu Feng did not rush back to the laboratory, but found Annie and asked her to spread the word to recruit people for Kane Manor.
The Baron has popularized knight breathing, and Lu Feng also needs to train a group of people with knight strength to work for him.
Whether it is the establishment of the wizard tower in the future, the daily maintenance, upkeep, and garrisoning required, or the construction of the spiritual realm by the earth immortal method, Lu Feng will need a group of subordinates to help with the work.
Anne and Houston alone could not satisfy Lu Feng's needs.
Training subordinates is not something that can be accomplished overnight; it requires time.
After receiving Lu Feng's order, Annie immediately went to make arrangements.
After finishing these two tasks, Lu Feng returned to the underground laboratory and continued to cultivate the dead species day and night.
Five days later,
Lu Feng's eyes were bloodshot and he was exhausted. After sending a wisp of wood energy into the dead seed, he finally sensed a different change coming from the seed.
"Crack!"
A tiny crack appeared in the shell of the dead energy-absorbing ancient tree, and a white root stretched out from it.
Second update! 2,500 words!
