Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 208
[Chapter 207: Nine Nether Mysterious Wood (Congratulations to the Silver Alliance!)]
Behind Changqing Pavilion.
Fang Xi was holding a flag of the Yi Mu Divine Thunder Array and making changes to it.
He withdrew the ‘Yi Mu Divine Thunder Formation’ that was originally guarding Longyu Island, and prepared to deploy it around the ‘forbidden area’ he had marked out.
In the future, if any monk on the island dares to enter the restricted area rashly, he will be struck by lightning.
Even if you can survive and come before the Demon Tree and Tai Sui, it is not a good thing.
Thanks to the generous financial support from Song Qing, the array plates and flags of the “Xuanmu Array” have been fully refined and can be arranged step by step. They only need to wait for the core array eye, the demon tree, to be planted before they can exert their full power.
…
Spring goes and autumn comes.
A layer of hazy gray fog replaced the original Yi Mu divine thunder and enveloped Longyu Island.
In the Changqing Pavilion, Fang Xi opened his eyes: “Another drop of liquid mana is condensed…”
After being promoted to the middle stage of foundation building, he still practiced hard every day.
At this point, his mastery of the Qingmu Changsheng Gong had become increasingly profound, and he gradually developed many insights.
“Qingmu Changsheng Gong is at the peak of the middle stage of foundation building. The liquid mana should be between 110 and 120 drops… Only when it reaches this level can there be a chance to break through to the late stage. Of course, the deeper the mana and the more solid the foundation, the greater the possibility of breakthrough…”
After finishing today’s homework, Fang Xi took out another demon tree seed and refined it with the “Eternal Life Technique”.
Since he has already established his foundation, his progress is far beyond when he was refining Qi.
“This tree species… is basically usable. Without the Demon Tree, the ‘Mysterious Wood Formation’ outside is just a showpiece…”
Fang Xi murmured in his heart, put away the demon tree seeds, and came to the Spiritual Medicine Valley.
It was the harvest season, and the green corn and dragon-scale rice were so heavy that the rice plants bent over.
Since there were not many cultivators on Dragon Fish Island, only a dozen or so, and harvesting spiritual rice was a tough job, Fang Xi naturally issued a conscription order, asking Zhong Qi to bring his men to help.
Yan Hongxiu was also among them.
Although she was the eldest daughter of a foundation-building family, and although she had previously learned to raise fish, she was still quite skillful in harvesting rice.
Fang Xi swept his spiritual sense around and found that most of these Qi Refining cultivators were in the early to middle stages, with only Zhong Qi being in the late stage of Qi Refining.
For managing an island, the number of manpower is a little insufficient.
“Island Master…”
Xiahou Zun put away his magic sickle, looked at the pile of jade rice, and with a smile on his face, he went to Fang Xi to report the good news: “Great news… This time, the yield of jade rice is about 120 catties per mu, and the yield of dragon scale rice is also 80 catties per mu…”
Dragon Scale Rice is a second-level spiritual rice and must be grown in a second-level spiritual field with more abundant spiritual energy, so its yield is not high.
“Yeah, well done.”
A look of joy appeared on Fang Xi’s face as he picked a grain of dragon scale rice.
The rice is the size of a fist, with dragon scale-like patterns on its surface. After being slightly roasted with spiritual fire, it gives off an enticing aroma.
Fang Xi took a bite and felt the refreshing rice aroma spreading in his mouth. The rice in his mouth instantly turned into warm currents, flowing down his throat and making his whole body warm.
The spiritual energy of spiritual rice is very gentle and has no poison. Long-term consumption can strengthen the cultivator’s physique and enhance qi and blood.
A cultivator with a strong physique will have an advantage in breaking through the Qi and Blood barrier among the three levels of foundation building.
“You have worked hard. Each of you has received the spiritual rice as reward, and then you can transport it to the warehouse.”
Fang Xi glanced around and gave the order.
He had long ago built a huge warehouse for storing spiritual rice, right next to Changqing Pavilion, which would also be convenient for feeding Tai Sui in the future.
“Island…Island Master!”
Yan Hongxiu, who was carrying a bag of spiritual rice, saw Fang Xi was about to leave, and immediately plucked up the courage to step forward.
“Oh? What do you want?”
Fang Xi glanced at the girl and asked casually.
“I… I know some tips on how to train the Little Green Dragon!”
Yan Hongxiu gritted her teeth and told a little secret.
In her heart, she even said to herself: “I’m sorry… Grandfather… but I’m doing this for the family… Fairy Taoling doesn’t accept my servants. If the island owner becomes more distant… my family will have no one to rely on…”
“Oh? Do you know how to breed little blue dragons?”
Fang Xi became interested.
“Little Azure Dragon is a first-grade, superior-quality Azure Jade Carp. My Yan family has been exploring and collecting incomplete inheritances, and we are barely able to stably cultivate a first-grade, mid-quality Azure Jade Carp…”
Yan Hongxiu gritted her teeth and said, “I am willing to give it to the island owner…”
This technique of taming spirit fish can be said to be a secret of the immortal cultivation family, and it can earn a lot of spirit stones every year.
“oh?”
Fang Xi looked at the girl and smiled: “Why did you give me such a big gift?”
“Hongxiu wants to become the island owner’s personal maid, please help me!”
Yan Hongxiu knelt down: “From now on, I must be loyal to the island master. If you break this oath, my inner demon will attack me during my training, and my meridians will be severed and I will die!”
“hateful!”
Xiahou Ying, who was following behind Xiahou Zun, clenched her fists immediately when she saw this scene.
“Forget it… You can hand over the inheritance to Zhong Qi, and come to Changqing Pavilion after you raise the first middle-grade jade carp…”
Fang Xi waved his hand indifferently.
I didn’t expect that this girl would have such an unexpected surprise.
But for him, that’s it.
It was quite interesting to see the Yan family doing whatever they could to curry his favor.
…
late at night.
Yimu Divine Thunder Array.
A flat area in the formation.
Fang Xi was wearing a green robe, standing with his hands behind his back, looking at the dark night sky.
After a long while, he smiled to himself: “Let’s start…”
Behind him, the demon tree tattoo glowed with light, which continued to sink into the demon tree seeds in his hand.
Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.
This is the improved method of refining demons in the Daliang world, and Fang Xi has innovated it, called “using demons to control demons”!
He uses the demon tree that has been completely refined in his body to control this demon tree seed, in order to cut off any possibility of resistance.
After completing this step, Fang Xi planted the seeds of the demon tree into the ground and saw it quickly take root and sprout… establishing the great circulation connection of the longevity technique.
Everything went very smoothly, after all it was the second time.
The sapling swayed, conveying a sense of closeness to Fang Xi.
“It’s time for a snack…”
Fang Xi thought about it and took out two branches from the Ancestral Demon Tree from his storage bag.
As for the largest piece of spiritual wood, he kept it and prepared to carve it into the prototype of the magic weapon “Green Wood Seal”.
Fortunately, the ‘Treasure Planting Technique’ does not have too many requirements on the refining technique. Fang Xi only needs to carve the ‘Green Wood Seal’ into a rough prototype, and the rest will be a matter of time and luck.
Hiss!
When the tiny demon sapling saw the two branches, it was a little scared at first. But under Fang Xi’s urging, it spread out its tentacles and penetrated into the branches.
As the two branches of the demon tree turned into dead wood and ashes, the demon tree continued to grow…
Three feet…
Six feet…
One zhang…
Looking at the demon tree seedling that had grown more than two meters in an instant and turned into a giant tree seven or eight meters high, Fang Xi nodded secretly: “This is very good…”
However, in order to cultivate this demon tree to perfection, he still took out two tree seeds and let them refine and absorb nutrients…
As for the last tree species, it was left behind just in case.
Gurgle! Gurgle!
The demon tree dropped its branches and vines, burrowing into the Tai Sui meat that had been prepared long ago, madly absorbing nutrients.
As the tree continued to absorb flesh and blood, a hazy black mist emerged around the tree and mixed into the gray mist of the ‘Xuanmu Array’. The two kinds of mist continued to converge, and because there was too little black mist, it seemed to dissipate in the blink of an eye.
Fang Xi held the formation disk in his hand, constantly adjusting it, and nodded repeatedly: “Okay… the formation is also connected.”
“Only when spiritual wood is the main body can it be the true ‘Xuanmu Great Array’!”
“And only after joining the Demon Tree Demon Realm can one be considered ‘Nine Nether’!”
Of course, at the beginning, this ‘Nine Nether Mysterious Wood Array’ was still of the second-grade upper grade.
But as time went by, the demon tree grew rapidly, and the demon domain became stronger and stronger. In ten years at most, it could be comparable to a quasi-third-level formation!
And after several decades or even a hundred years… the power of this formation would never be inferior to the Heavenly Wolf Howling Moon Formation, and it might even be better!
This was also Fang Xi’s biggest reliance now!
“Once this formation is completed, Dragon Fish Island will be as solid as a rock…”
Fang Xi sat cross-legged under the demon tree, and countless tentacles stretched out from the demon tree tattooed on his back, connecting with the demon tree behind him, and began to practice the “longevity technique”!
“Hmm…”
As a scent of plant essence mixed with rich life energy poured in, Fang Xi couldn’t help but let out a refreshed sigh.
“That’s the feeling…”
He found that his ‘green wood spirit body’ was like a dried-up earth, greedily absorbing the water transformed from the vitality of life.
The life span that was originally consumed by performing the “Demon Disintegration Technique” was slowly and steadily being made up.
Even the silver seal characters that had originally been silent and represented the ‘Yi Mu Dharma Body’ were beginning to recover at an extremely slow speed.
“I have already achieved the Qingmu Spirit Body, so this time I will start my cultivation directly from the Yimu Dharma Body?”
A thought emerged in Fang Xi’s mind.
This was a good thing, as it meant that he could save at least ten years of hard work in seclusion!
He looked inward with his spiritual sense, observing the incomplete silver runes in his body, and vaguely gained a great understanding of the way of talismans…
After finishing practicing the “longevity technique”, Fang Xi looked at the last remaining section of the demon tree spirit material and fell into deep thought.
Then, two jade slips appeared in his hands, and he began to comprehend the method of refining the ‘Qingmu Seal’ and the secret technique of ‘Zhongbao Jue’.
“Although I am not very good at refining weapons, I am at the foundation-building stage after all. With the help of my spiritual consciousness and innate true fire, it will not be a problem to get started if I spend a lot of resources…”
“When the time comes, as long as we can carve out a rough embryo, we can plant it in the demon tree and nourish it…”
“When I reach the stage of Dan, I will have two magic weapons to use…”
An ordinary Jindan ancestor, if he has no force to rely on, may not be able to collect enough materials to refine his own magic weapon after going through untold hardships to form the Jindan, and will fall into a disadvantage in fighting with cultivators of the same level.
However, Fang Xi prepared for a rainy day. When he reaches the Jindan stage in the future, he will have at least two magic weapons, one for attack and one for defense, which will be enough to make other Jindan ancestors envious…
