Chapter 4: The first level of Qi training
Five days passed.
In the evening, as usual, Ang Lee closed the door and then lit a fire to cook.
In order to avoid the smell of new spiritual rice that is not fully ripe and the smell of cooking is noticed, he adds more than a dozen grains of ripe spiritual rice to it each time.
In fact, the difference in the aroma of the two is not too big, and it is impossible for Wang Zilin and Zhang Susu to find it.
But prudence and caution have been engraved into Ang Lee's bones and become an instinct.
In the past few days, Li Ang has been able to harvest about a catty of spiritual rice every night.
That's the limit.
Because he was too careful in his method of stealing, he only took three or five grains from each ear of rice, instead of taking the whole ear.
While taking it, he also used his fingernails to disguise some bite marks gnawed by insects and ants, so the speed was very slow.
Moreover, Li An is not greedy, mainly because there are many impurities in the spiritual rice, and the speed of extracting spiritual energy is limited.
At present, in a day, his body can digest a catty of spiritual rice at most.
No matter how much it is, it will only be wasted and cannot be absorbed.
This is still the experience of his cultivation in his previous life, otherwise, such as Wang Zilin and others, at this stage, he would die half a tael a day!
This is the importance of resources, if you use spirit stones to cultivate, the speed of absorbing spiritual energy will be many times faster!
The faster the cultivation progress, the faster.
……
A large pot full of spiritual rice came out of the pot, and Li Ansheng ate the rice in a big gulp.
The taste is not fully ripe Lingmi, and there is a faint grassy taste when eating, but Li An is as sweet as a syrup.
Eat all the rice in a large pot.
Li An inspected his body, and under the nourishment of a large pot of spiritual rice essence every day, the green sprouts in the dantian had become the size of a pea.
But it's still in the bud!
In the past few days, about one-fifth of the spiritual root that Li An had destroyed by the thunder aura had been repaired.
It's slow, but he's satisfied.
This fully proves the anti-heaven effect of the life-raising and immortal formula.
After all, if the spiritual root is damaged, it is generally only possible to repair it with a second-grade pill!
A pill of a second-grade pill, not to mention his miscellaneous servants, even if he is a formal disciple, he can't ask for it.
……
Wait for the night to fall.
As always, Ang Lee sneaked into the spiritual field.
Through a few days of observation, he had a deeper understanding of this spiritual field as a whole.
There is a spirit gathering array around the spiritual field, which can collect spiritual energy for crops to grow.
However, the distribution of the Spirit Gathering Array was uneven, resulting in the most barren land on the left and the worst quality of spiritual rice.
The right side is second, and the middle is the best!
Tonight, he directly touched the middle area, which was the core production area and the central area of the Spirit Gathering Array.
Under the moonlight, the rice in front of you is tall and dense, and the rice ears are full.
Ang Lee's movements were already extremely skillful, and he swept all the way down the ditch.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, a cyan borer that landed on Li An's sleeve caught his attention.
The borer, which is nocturnal and feeds on rice leaves, resembles maggots in the larval stage, and the adult morphology is similar to that of a moth.
It is normal for there to be borers in the spiritual rice field, but this insect is fat and big, and there is actually a sense of transparency in the body, which is obviously a little spiritualized!
This is not right, there are very few borers that can be spiritualized, and there are generally signs of spiritualization in the adult stage, and the current spiritual rice is not enough to support its spiritualization.
Li An paid attention and moved along the ditch.
The terrain was the flattest, and the water in the ditch was barely flowing, and it was still, but as he walked, his skin sensed the water moving, as if something was absorbing it in front of him.
Li An touched it and sensed that the aura around it was extremely strong, and at the intersection of the two ditches in front of him, there was a sound of "gurgling" water.
That's a whirlpool!
The water in the spiritual field is sucked into it.
Moreover, the aura in the spiritual field also converges from here, and it is carried by the current and does not know where it flows.
On the weed blades around the whirlpool, there are more than a dozen huge borer larvae, almost all of which are transparent and spiritualized.
"It turns out that someone is stealing Reiki!"
Ang Lee suddenly realized.
In this whirlpool, there must have been a hidden mechanism formation, and some of the aura in the Lingtian Spirit Gathering Great Array was stolen.
"This whirlpool of stealing spiritual energy has caused an imbalance in the spiritual energy in the spiritual field, so it has also produced a large number of borer ......"
Ang Lee pondered, who would be the one who stole the aura?
He subconsciously glanced towards the top of Lingzhi Mountain.
Fan Jie is the only possibility.
Guards steal from themselves!?
However, Ang Lee has no desire to meddle.
On the contrary, he was quite pleased, and caught all the spiritual borers on the blades of grass around the whirlpool.
In the words of the time before the crossing, these bugs are all high-grade proteins!
A thumb-sized spirit borer contains almost the same spiritual energy as a catty of spiritual rice.
If it weren't for the gathering of spiritual energy here, it is estimated that the entire Lingtian would not be able to produce so many spiritual borers.
For a cultivator who has just stepped into the Qi Refining Period, this is a rare treasure, but for a cultivator like Fan Jie who is in the middle stage of Qi Refining, it is of little use.
Of course, these insects also contain trace amounts of insect venom, so other low-level miscellaneous workers don't know how to eat them.
So, these borers have been left uncaught.
On the contrary, it is cheaper Ang Lee!
Moreover, as long as the aura has been out of balance, there will be spiritual borers in the spiritual field.
"There will be more and more borers, and the more serious the insect infestation, the more unlikely it will be that I will be found out about stealing Lingmi!"
Li An was relieved, collected these insects, and continued to gather spiritual rice.
……
The next day.
Early in the morning, Fan Jie went down the mountain, he had something to go out, and checked the cultivation progress of Li An and the three of them on the way.
"Well, Wang Zilin, your Xingyun Rain Technique has been a little successful."
"Zhang Susu is also good."
Wang Zilin's cultivation progress was the fastest, followed by Zhang Susu, which made Fan Jie quite satisfied.
Especially after the success of Qi training, Zhang Susu's luster is more charming, and his figure is also raised by Lingmi to be more graceful, and Fan Jie is even more greedy to take a few more looks.
"Ang Lee, what about you?" Fan Jie turned his head to look at Ang Li.
"Qi Qi Immortal Chief, my spiritual root is damaged, and I haven't been able to enter the first layer of Qi cultivation for the time being......"
Ang Lee's face was ugly.
"Haven't practiced qi yet?!"
Fan Jie frowned suddenly, the horizontal flesh on his face trembled, and shouted: "There is only half a month left, you haven't practiced qi yet, you came to my Lingzhi Mountain, are you here to eat rice?" ”
Li An bowed his head and did not dare to speak.
"Don't think it's okay if you don't speak, Lao Tzu tells you, Lingzhishan doesn't raise idlers, let alone waste people, you can't participate in farming after half a month, all monthly cases are deducted, you give me a fuck!"
"Do you understand?"
Li An said: "The disciple understands. ”
Fan Jie snorted coldly and said, "I have something to do to leave the mountain, and during this period, you are not allowed to go up the mountain for a single step, otherwise I will find out and break your dog's legs." ”
After saying that, he turned around and left Lingzhi Mountain.
"Ang Li, haven't you successfully repaired your spiritual root yet?"
After Fan Jie left, Zhang Susu asked.
Li An smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Not yet...... I'll try again. ”
With that, he went back to the house.
"Su Su, leave him alone, I've heard people say that if you want to repair the spiritual root, unless you can get the second-grade pill, he won't have a chance in this life, and he is destined to be a waste......"
"Come, how about we practice the Xingyun Rain Technique together? I feel like I've made some progress and can share my experience with you......"
Outside the room, Wang Zilin's brisk and smug voice faintly came.
……
Today's dinner was extraordinarily delicious.
Dozens of Linghua larvae are cooked together with Lingmi, giving the rice a hint of meaty aroma.
The aura and life essence of this pot of rice are almost equivalent to the amount of all spiritual rice in the past half a month.
After eating, the life seed was visibly larger to the naked eye, the size of a peanut.
The top of the life seed is even more spiky, as if there are sprouts about to emerge.
……
Another dozen days passed.
In three days, the three's month-long "rookie period" will end.
In the evening of this day, after eating, Li An inspected the dantian and finally showed a relaxed and satisfied smile.
In the dantian, a blue-green seedling has "broken the soil" and grown, growing a young leaf.
Li An's broken spiritual root, nourished by the life seed, has finally recovered!
It's a miracle!
Because, even if you get the second-grade pill, it will take about half a year to repair the spiritual root.
"With the life seed, my vitality and resilience have been significantly improved, and now even if I don't practice, as a mortal, I can easily live to be one hundred and twenty years old."
Li An whispered, and then took out the small half of the spirit stone.
The lower grade spirit stone contains limited spiritual energy.
Moreover, Li An knew very well that this should be one-third of a complete spirit stone.
The three of them had to give out a total of three spirit stones every month, but Fan Jie deducted two of them, and then divided one into three parts for the three of them.
It's doggy.
But entering the first layer of Qi training, it should be barely enough.
Li An absorbed the rich aura in the spirit stone, and then ran the life-raising immortal recipe to refine the aura into his body.
Another five days passed.
Li Ancai finally succeeded in practicing qi and entered the first level of qi training.
"The speed of cultivation of the Immortal Recipe for Raising Lives is really ...... Relatively slow. ”
Li An woke up with a somewhat complicated expression.
Even Zhang Susu, Wang Zilin, plus those who are familiar with Tunadu, lasted a total of seven days.
The time that is really used to practice qi is no more than two days.
But it took so long for Ang Lee......
However, what satisfied him was that the qi he had cultivated was very pure and free of impurities.
After all, the path of cultivation is long and difficult, and Li Anxin has already been tempered firmly and calmly, and he will not be anxious because he falls behind.
At the same time, Li Ang urged the life seed to continue to show his broken spiritual root.
- This is one of the special effects of the life seed, which can disguise and hide one's state and breath.
……
As soon as Fan Jie went out, it was more than half a month and he hadn't come back yet.
It was another three days later, at noon, that he finally returned from outside.
"Come out and assemble!"
……
