Chapter 31: Turning the Soil into Secrets

Turning his face sideways, the Lord of the Ten Thousand Ghost Hall looked apologetically at the bright and beautiful woman beside him. Thousands of years have passed, but not even the slightest trace has been left on her face. He said to the people around him in his usual low and hoarse voice: "If it weren't for you, there would be no today's earthquake." Over the years, I have delayed my second brother, Yue'er, and even more so you. As he spoke, the apology on Yin Zhen's face became even stronger. The woman's left hand, which was being held, trembled slightly.

In the room of Yin Mingyue on the fourth floor of the Zhuangyuan Pavilion on the shore of the East Lake of Beiyi Kingdom, Zhao Yingluo and Li Qingmao were toasting each other. Yin Mingyue sat on the side, constantly urging the two to eat more vegetables. There were four dishes on the table, and the two soups were cooked by Miss Yin herself in the back kitchen on the first floor. To be honest, her cooking skills are really good, and in just a few days of helping in the back kitchen, she has been recognized by several people in the kitchen and the guests in the store.

At this time, she was holding a piece of fish that had been fried to a golden brown and putting it into the delicate small dish in front of Zhao Yingluo. Seeing this, Li Qingmao smiled and said, "My sister loves you, eat more." She also has a heart, this dried fried silver-scaled fish is a special dish in our western barbaric continent. Because the requirements for living conditions such as water quality and climate are particularly high, with the changes in the general environment in recent years, the output is getting smaller and smaller, and the few flavors and accessories required to cook the fish are also extremely rare, so only those who have a solid family background in their hometown will serve this dish when they have distinguished guests. For example, the first time a new son-in-law comes to the door. As he spoke, Li Qingmao looked at Zhao Yingluo beside him with a little deep meaning.

"Drunk eyes to see others in pairs are better than secretly playing lovesick tears in no one's place. Li Qingmao muttered in an inaudible voice at the table near the window in his room, in the cold moonlight.

At the end of the song, everyone dispersed, and after returning to the room, Li Qingmao, who was already drunk, couldn't sleep for a long time. He simply rolled over and got out of bed, and sat down at the table by the window.

After a few days of adjustment and self-suggestion, Li Qingmao thought that he no longer liked Yin Mingyue. At least he can turn this emotion into a blessing for his sister. But once he really saw Yu Wenying and her together, he realized that he still couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

So at the wine table, he drank desperately, trying to anesthetize himself with spirits. But the frustration after getting drunk, and the melancholy at the end of the song, repeatedly reminded him that the practice of raising a glass to dispel sorrow was extremely wrong.

Drunk, under the moonlight, what came to his mind were scenes of sad past that he didn't want to mention: the rudeness and willfulness of the little girl when he first met: her brightness and cunning after getting acquainted; his heartbreak and despair when the family chose to be her soul servant; the excitement and joy of the woman in front of the dry bone mirror when she took the news of his wishful husband; and his helplessness and hesitation when he heard her say that he was only his own brother.

Immortal cultivators are born from ordinary people, and among the hundreds of millions of ordinary people in the secular world, there are less than one who have immortal fate. After practicing a few immortal methods that are widely spread in the secular world (the most basic method of cultivating immortals to induce qi into the body), ordinary people can initially communicate with the aura of heaven and earth and successfully induce qi into the body. Then its immortal fate may be able to begin. Of course, these people who can successfully complete the induction of qi into the body are also called people with spiritual roots.

And what Zhao Yingluo possessed was a single-attribute earth spirit root that all powerful people dreamed of. A single attribute of the spiritual root is called the best spiritual root in the world of immortal cultivation, and a cultivator with the ultimate spiritual root can achieve twice the result with half the effort when cultivating exercises that match the attributes of his spiritual root.

Zhao Yingluo, who has the best spiritual root of the earth attribute, has practiced the cold flame skill of the fire attribute. Throughout the ages, in the world of cultivating immortals, like Zhao Yingluo, there are not a few monks who practice exercises that do not match their spiritual root attributes for one reason or another, but most of them are extremely slow in cultivation.

Many years ago, when Zhao Yingluo's cultivation had just reached the atomization period, his grandmother helped him choose the Cold Flame Gong as his main cultivation method. There are probably three reasons for this: firstly, this cold flame skill is not easy to obtain, and it even involves a secret in the world of cultivating immortals, which is one of the few exercises that can be cultivated all the way to the realm of reincarnation in the current world; secondly, the Beiyi Wangfu has always been famous for alchemy, refining tools and fire control techniques, and Zhao Yingluo, as a descendant, must not know the art of fire refining; and secondly, because of the fragments of the earth recipe.

This fragment has been passed down by the Beiyi Wangfu for generations, and what is recorded in it can make the monk's own spiritual root attribute and the mana in the Qi Sea Dantian change at will in the five elements.

He has the best spiritual root of the earth attribute, and after reversing the secret technique of transforming the earth, he can change his spiritual root attribute into the genus of gold soil, water and soil, wood and earth, and fire and earth.

The spiritual root attribute that he borrowed when cultivating the Fire Attribute Exercise, the Cold Flame Exercise, was the top-grade spiritual root of the dual attributes of fire and earth that had been changed.

Like this, the high-grade spiritual root, which is mainly based on fire attributes and supplemented by earth attributes, will not enter the realm too slowly when cultivating fire attribute exercises. The mana refined through this is also the attribute of fire.

When he was not doing penance, he once again ran the secret technique of transforming the earth, turning all his mana and spiritual root attributes into the soil of the five elements.

This is also why, when Zhao Ying fell against people, he always relied on the mana of the earth attribute.

A drizzling rain knocked on the wooden window, splashing on the hair and face of Zhao Yingluo, who was standing against the window. Looking at the rain falling in the sky like cow hair and flower needles, and looking at the layers of ripples after the rain fell on the lake, he suddenly felt empty in his heart.

Li Qingmao's non-resignation, and the previous farewell with Yin Mingyue, made Zhao Yingluo's heart of cultivation that he thought had been firm shaken a little again. Even if he knows that the avenue is ruthless in the end, he can't help but sigh and say goodbye to loneliness at this moment.

Shuangyue City on the Sichuan Sea Continent, in the small courtyard where Zhao Yingluo lived before. Yuwen Shuoyue was drinking with a red-haired middle-aged man who had reached the middle stage of his cultivation and looked like he was about forty years old.

Looking at the clear wine in the cup, Yuwen Shuoyue said in a depressed mood: "Uncle, whether it is the eldest lady or the yin shopkeeper." Once anyone comes back here, they must go to the Roland Courtyard of Fucui Garden to find me. ”

Seeing that Yuwen Shuoyue was already drunk, and his expression was becoming more and more lonely. The red-haired man immediately said with concern: "Second Young Master, don't be too sad, once there is news here, the humble post will definitely send a message to you as soon as possible." ”

At the junction of the Northern Yi Kingdom and the Western Barbarian Continent, there is the famous Goluo Mountain Range in the Immortal Cultivation Realm. The mountain range runs from north to south, forming a huge natural barrier between the Northern Yi Kingdom and the Barbarian Continent. While the barrier keeps out the hot and humid air and violent sandstorms that characterize the Wastelands, it also makes it difficult to communicate between the two continents.

The Golo Mountains are high and forested, with lush vegetation, and have become a paradise for monsters in inaccessible places. A large number of demon beasts gathered, although there is no shortage of people who have cultivated immortals and cultivated the Dao to hunt for spiritual materials, but the hunting process of nine deaths and the few poor spiritual material benefits have made the group of explorers who are keen on it become more and more rare.
