Chapter 101: Purifying Amethyst
Building a pyramid is a big project, at least until everyone settles down. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoSo, the amethyst was moved to the innermost part of the cave and temporarily stored.
The construction business outside is still in full swing. On the flat land in front of the cave, four more houses have been built, and it is estimated that four or five more will be built in the afternoon, and such a fast speed is due to the fact that Zhu Yan and the others prepared sufficient building materials yesterday.
As for the three houses built yesterday, the walls have quickly become sweaty and hardened since Mr. Chen lit a few piles of charcoal fires in them. The doors made of wooden planks, the wooden strips and the windows covered with thick plastic film have been installed, and it is estimated that they will be able to move in tonight. No, someone has already moved in a few daily necessities and can't wait to enjoy the joy of moving to a new house.
In the fields closest to the cave, the two senior brothers and reporter Zhou made the shape of a house with wooden strips, as long as the plastic film was spread on the surrounding and roof, the plastic greenhouse was completed.
The seeds of fruits and vegetables that had been soaked in the cave yesterday had sprouted and grown their roots, even better than the seedlings cultivated by the farmers. It seems that the hot springs diluted with snow water do wonders, not only do not affect the growth of plants, but also have an unexpected stimulating effect.
Everything is a new beginning, everything is full of vitality, although the work is hard, but it is so fresh and fulfilling, how not to make everyone's passion surging?
For the weekly reporters who are accustomed to urban life, this kind of day is far away from fierce competition, away from all kinds of utilitarian thoughts, away from the intrigue between people, and they are the most real, pure, and happiest at this time.
For Mr. and Mrs. Chen, this kind of day allowed them to taste the joy of pioneers, taste unprecedented freedom of mind, and taste a new taste of life.
The only fly in the ointment is that the climate on Changbai Mountain is changeable, cloudy, foggy, rainy, hail, misty all day long, and it is rare to see the sun, which is not conducive to the growth of plants.
Elsewhere in the mountains, the average annual temperature ranges from minus 7 to 3 degrees Celsius, with eight months of the year being winter. With the exception of hardy plants in the mountains, it is difficult for other species to grow, let alone crops that are more demanding on the environment. However, this is definitely an exception, because the heat of the hot springs is replenished, and the temperature is stable in the tens to twenties Celsius all year round, and the variety of plants in the valley is already very large. What's more, now that plastic greenhouses have been built, the cultivation of crops is not a problem at all.
That afternoon, Zhu Yan and everyone built a plastic greenhouse, and moved a lot of humus from the woods to accumulate in it. This can not only allow humus to decompose into inorganic matter, increase the fertility of the soil, but also release heat through fermentation to increase the temperature in the shed. In this way, after two days, when the seedlings of fruits and vegetables are cultivated, they can be transplanted directly into the greenhouse.
The sky darkened unconsciously, and it was time for dinner again, and the smell of rice wafted from time to time on the side of the cave. Teacher Chen, who built the house, had also returned from work, and they met Zhu Yan in front of the cave, asking each other about their progress, with sweat on their foreheads and a proud look on their faces.
The dinner was sumptuous, with fresh wild bracken, wild camellia, lion's mane mushrooms and other vegetables, as well as a wild rabbit and a pheasant, which the second senior brother had accidentally caught when they were chopping wood in the morning. According to them, there is a lot of game in the forests of this valley, and they can improve their food from time to time.
Although they choose to practice in seclusion, they are not rigid people, knowing that their cultivation is not enough, they have to absorb energy in time, and the intake of protein and fat is indispensable. Later, after the cultivation is successful, the energy provided by the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi will increase, and the demand for food will naturally be reduced.
After dinner, by the hazy moonlight, everyone found a place to meditate and retreat. Most of the women stayed in the cave, which was warmer and safer. The male compatriots went to the woods next to the stream, which was more secluded and more energetic. They had to move to a stone hut at night, after all, it was inconvenient for both men and women to be crammed into the cave.
Zhu Yan and Chen Lan didn't join everyone, they moved the amethyst to the secluded maple forest near the cave, where they prepared to purify the amethyst. Originally, Zhu Yan wanted to purify the amethyst alone, but Chen Lan was not at ease, after all, she had seen the power of that evil vitality, so she volunteered to serve as a protector.
Zhu Yan sat down cross-legged next to Amethyst, abandoning distracting thoughts, and soon entered a state of selflessness. His consciousness entered the spiritual space, and he saw that the spiritual space had expanded a lot, and it was as much as a thousand acres.
In this magical land, the grass is green, the river flows through it, and the animals walk together, everything is so harmonious and orderly. And the soul tree in the center also grew countless twigs and leaves, as if it had just been bathed in the spring breeze and spring rain.
After some inquiry, Zhu Yan began to use the mental method, and two huge vortices, one yin and one yang, suddenly appeared, and suddenly the wind and clouds surged in the spiritual space, and large strands of vitality continued to pour in from his meridians. Driven by this strong suction, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi around his body was also frantically inhaled to replenish the gradually depleting Yuan Qi in the various meridians of his body.
Suddenly, his mind moved, and the Tianyan on his forehead automatically opened, which seemed to be a switch, allowing the internal and external vitality to have a direct communication channel. As a result, the surrounding heaven and earth vitality surged to the Heavenly Eye, and through this special channel, it rushed like a moth to a fire to the yin and yang vortex in the spiritual space.
It's time, Zhu Yan aimed the Heavenly Eye directly at the huge amethyst, and the vitality in the amethyst, which was already ready to move, immediately stirred, and they all broke free from the shackles of the crystal and rushed straight towards his Heavenly Eye. This rushed out more and more, faster and faster, and in a short time, it completely replaced the other meridians, independently supporting all the suction power of the Yin and Yang Vortex.
With the influx of a large amount of vitality in the amethyst, the spiritual space is undergoing another transformation, and those vitality is turning into style, rain, and air, constantly expanding the space, nourishing the earth, and nourishing the magical spiritual tree in the center of the earth.
In this way, for about half an hour, Zhu Yan's spiritual space increased by several hundred acres, and the vitality of the amethyst still did not decrease. At this time, Zhu Yan suddenly felt a burst of upset, and seemed to be a little sleepy, like the lazy and drowsy of a summer afternoon.
He suddenly came to his senses, and the evil energy in the amethyst finally came. He searched carefully with his consciousness, and sure enough, he found a black filament of vitality in the tumbling vortex. Looking for vines and melons again, the end of the black vitality filament actually went straight to the inside of the amethyst.
Once you've found the evil energy, it's incredibly simple. As soon as Zhu Yan's mind moved, the purification function of the Mind Tree was turned on, and the black filaments that had been sucked into the mind space turned into pieces one after another, disappearing without a trace, and the irritability and laziness in his heart immediately disappeared.
Time passed unconsciously, the moon had long since disappeared into the mountains, and the chirping of insects in the forest had gradually stopped. Chen Lan, who was originally protecting the Dharma on the side, had also been meditating under a nearby tree for a long time after confirming that Zhu Yan was fine.
The Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in that amethyst, under Zhu Yan's crazy devouring, finally thinned, and it was estimated that it would be emptied in a few hours. According to Zhu Yan's estimate, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi contained in this amethyst was enough to elevate a cultivator who cultivated the Initial Realm to a level close to the Cave Xuan Initial Realm. But for him who was originally in the middle realm of the Cave Xuan, even after absorbing all the vitality in it, there was still a long way to go from the peak of the Cave Xuan.
Of course, the amount of heaven and earth vitality absorbed by amethyst in these tens of thousands of years should be far more than this amount, after all, the gathering ability of that inverted pentagram is still strong enough. Zhu Yan guessed that most of the Yuan Qi it absorbed might have been assimilated by the Evil Yuan Qi and directly teleported to a certain place underground.
