The immortals of the two worlds started from farming and refining pills.

Chapter 20: Master of Keeping Balance, Family Recent Situation

About a quarter of an hour later, Atao successfully absorbed the Cordyceps into his body.

Li Qing's mind moved, and the next moment, the pink elf insect fell into the palm of his left hand, facing Asun in his right hand across the air.

"Huh?" Ah Zao was a little confused, staring blankly at the green fellow.

Asun was also stunned, but reacted quickly, straightened up, shouted "Aiya" angrily, and then suddenly shot towards the other party.

Ah Zao was caught off guard and fell flat on his face. He was confused at first, then angry. He turned around and started fighting with Ah Sun: "Ugh!"

"Hey! Why are they fighting?" Li Qing flicked his fingers with two magical powers and separated the two little guys. "Didn't Ryan say that the elves and insects get along well with each other?"

Ah Zao landed on Li Qing's left shoulder and turned around in circles with a look of grievance: "Umm..."

After all, it didn't plant the Cordyceps, so it couldn't get the replenishment of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and was no match for the opponent. The beautiful red rune on its forehead was swollen.

Ah Sun was originally on Li Qing's right shoulder, but when he realized he couldn't see the strange insect, he jumped onto his head, looking down at Ah Zao, and called out triumphantly, "Yaaa!"

Acao was angry and anxious, but couldn't win the fight, so he could only cry out pitifully at Li Qing.

Li Qing had no choice but to grab Asun off his head and said, "You are the eldest of the elves in the family. When you meet a new companion, you should welcome him."

Along with the communication through spiritual consciousness, Li Qing secretly used a small spell to calm the mind, calming Asun's seemingly angry but actually worried mood.

Ah Sun gradually relaxed, and obediently laid in Li Qing's palm, calling out lovingly: "Yeah!"

Li Qing smiled and touched the dark green symbol on its forehead: "So good!"

Seeing this, Ah Zao on the left shoulder felt even more aggrieved: "Ugh..."

Li Qing smiled and gave it a ball of spiritual energy: "Don't be angry. Come, eat a ball of spiritual energy..."

The little foodie was comforted in a very unpromising way, and kept chewing happily: "Mmm~"

Li Qing gave Asun another ball of spiritual energy, and while feeding the two little guys, he introduced them to each other.

The elf insects are simple creatures, and with the help of their master to mediate, they soon start playing and frolicking.

Li Qing put them on the ground, took out a spirit stone, let them chew on it, and then began to tidy up his own spirit plant garden.

All the grown lettuces were pulled out and neatly stacked aside according to their types. Li Qing casually scattered a handful of seeds on the ground.

The lettuce cordyceps seemed to sense it and glowed green. Soon, the dormant seeds began to sprout.

The two rabbit tail grasses transplanted from Lettuce Island have completely adapted to the spiritual environment here, and the furry ears are one step closer to maturity.

Li Qing casually cast a spell to induce birth on them, then ignored them and turned to walk to the pond in the corner of the spiritual plant garden.

There were originally some lotus spiritual plants planted here. Li Qing had harvested them all to collect spiritual stones to buy foundation-building pills, and the lotus pond had been left idle.

"Come, Acao, plant your Cordyceps here!" Li Qing pointed to the spiritual energy node in the pool.

Ah Zao came over and opened his mouth: "Um... li!"

The rice-sized red algae Cordyceps grows as soon as it enters the water and soon becomes the size of a fist. It does not take root, but only uses its short shallow roots to absorb the spiritual energy in the water.

Soon, the circulation between Cordyceps and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was established. Ah Zao let out a long breath and ran to find Ah Sun to play a wrestling game with him. Seeing that they did not fight again, Li Qing ignored them and planted the spiritual plants in the water he brought back, then struck the jade chime in the cave.

The restrictions on the cave gate were then lifted, and soon, Li Wei and other apprentices rushed in.

Li Qing asked the others to wait in the front hall, leaving only Li Wei. He pointed at the lettuce on the ground and said, "I ripened this with magic. Take it home and let everyone taste it!"

"Thank you, uncle!" Li Wei thanked him and put a storage bag full of lettuce. "Grandfather will be very happy if he knows that you planted it yourself."

Li Qing turned his head and pointed at Azao and said, "I have hatched another spirit insect, named Azao. It likes red algae very much. Can you help me find some different species..."

"Okay!" Li Wei responded straightforwardly, and took out a few kinds of lettuce from the storage bag, "I asked someone to find some more spiritual lettuce, I hope Ah Sun likes it."

Li Qing smiled and glanced at Ah Sun, who was staring at the new product in Li Wei's hand, not caring about losing the wrestling game. "Well, I think he likes it."

After explaining the matters concerning the elf insects, Li Qing took Li Wei to the front yard and left the spiritual plant garden to the two elf insects.

Seeing him come out, alchemy apprentices Li Wei, Li Zhao and others hurriedly surrounded him, took out the pills they had recently made, and asked him to comment on them.

"A Zhao, your Qingling Powder is now a master's work. Here are a few first-grade lower-grade pill recipes. Take them back and study them carefully. If you have any questions, come and ask me."

"Ah Wei, your medicine looks OK. It's just that you smell like Huilingdan... That's all. Everyone has their own aspirations. Just keep it in mind."

After Li Qing finished commenting on everyone in turn, he announced that he would continue refining the elixir in two days. He asked them to come and observe, and then sent them away.

The next people who came to report the current situation to him were Li Lang and others who were doing odd jobs on the mountaintop of Xuefeng Lake.

Before going to the elf world, Li Qing had already brought his family's spiritual plant master to plant seasonal spiritual plants on the small hill according to the plan.

At present, the place is temporarily managed by two first-level mid-grade spiritual plant masters, and juniors such as Li Wei and Li Lang are helping them.

Li Lang talked about the most important thing first: "According to your instructions before you went into seclusion, the head of the family made a special trip to Yanling Valley and asked Uncle Zhe for a spirit gathering protection array, which has been installed."

Li Wei added: "When the patriarch came back, Uncle Zhe also brought a green lotus seed, which is said to have come from a secret realm. He said that if you are interested, you can try to cultivate it."

Li Qing's eyebrows raised, and he became interested: "Oh, did he say what kind of green lotus seeds they were?"

All the apprentices shook their heads.

Li Qing was not in a hurry to see the green lotus seeds. He took his children who were learning to grow spiritual plants to the spiritual plant garden in the backyard.

"I haven't seen you for half a month. Let me see if you have made any progress." He pointed at the two rabbit-tail grasses and the newly planted water spiritual plants, "Let's use these as teaching aids..."

"I've been waiting for you to say that." Li Wei stepped forward without hesitation, selected a newly planted green algae spiritual plant, and "whoosh" two spring breeze spells were brushed on it.

Unexpectedly, not long after this spiritual plant regained its vitality, its leaves began to turn white and swell, and it looked seriously ill.

Li Wei was shocked and cast another rejuvenation spell, but it only treated the symptoms and not the root cause.

Li Qing shook his head helplessly: "When planting spiritual plants, the most important thing is to use the right method according to the plant's aptitude. This spiritual plant grows in the sea, and the first thing you need to do is to pull it out..."

Fairy Cordyceps is favored by spiritual energy and has a strong universality. But other spiritual plants do not have this ability. It does not show up when it is just planted, but it will naturally become clear after the magic is activated.

"Ah?" Li Wei was stunned for a moment, "Then you will plant it in the pond?"
