Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 228: The End of the Array, the World of Grass and Trees

When he returned to Pingyang Mountain, the first thing that greeted Li Ye was the feedback from the Sky Tree.

No matter how inferior the fake pill is, at least its body has experienced the baptism of spiritual energy during the breakthrough, and has the accumulation of golden elixir true essence and magic power.

When he died, a considerable portion of his magical power, which had dissipated from his golden elixir, was integrated into his corpse.

For the cultivators of the magic path, such existences are excellent materials, whether for sacrificing flesh and blood, refining bones, or concocting zombie demons!
As long as the technique is right, it will be no problem to create a quasi-third-level demon!

And if used as fertilizer, it is naturally very nourishing for spiritual plants.

Now, the body of Jiudingzi has not yet been completely absorbed by the Sky Realm Tree, but it has given feedback.

Even because of the restriction of the spiritual vein, the Sky Realm Tree had not broken through the third level and should not have been able to start the third solidification of spiritual essence, but it started to feedback again.

According to this calculation, when Jiudingzi's corpse completely dissipates, perhaps at least two or three times of feedback can be given.

"But a fake elixir fertilizer can only solidify at this rate. Expecting the Sky Realm Tree to fight against the third-level [Heavenly Transcendent] by relying on compost is simply impossible... Where would I get so many Golden Cores to kill!"

"If I want to use this to allow the Sky Realm Tree to break through to the third level, it's still a little short. At least another golden elixir must be added to it before it can complete the breakthrough without the help of the third-level spiritual vein... However, with the current spiritual energy state of Pingyang Mountain, if it really reaches the peak of the second level, there will be no shortage of spiritual energy to help it break through..."

Li Ye withdrew his hand from the Sky Realm Tree, shook his head while thinking, and had no hope for the golden elixir fertilizer.

It has been some time since Bihu Sanren died, and Jiudingzi followed closely behind.

Now, the only two Jindan masters still alive in the four countries' cultivation world are Taoist Feiyu and Master Zixuan.

They are indeed genuine Jindan cultivators, but they are all old and have suffered a lot from themselves and the demons in the past few decades.

They have become much more cautious in their actions than when they were young. According to the intelligence we have obtained over the past ten years, they are almost the same as Li Ye, and will not leave the mountain gate unless it is necessary.

Even though the Wu and Jing countries were about to fight each other, they showed no intention of interfering.

Each of them is holding their ground and not going out, which is quite stable!
Otherwise, if there was a Jindan in person in Qiandao Water City that day, Li Ye would never show up and take action, so as not to get himself involved.

The only two remaining Jindan in the Four Kingdoms' world of immortal cultivation are of this style, and you still want to kill them and use them as fertilizer. This is a bit too much to think about!

"That's fine... Since they're so entrenched, the situation in the four countries shouldn't affect me. I can achieve perfection in my cultivation in less than ten years!"

Li Ye thought, "As long as I break through the Golden Core stage, I can try to hunt down the third-order fire beasts and the Golden Core Demons. With the power of the Sky Realm Tree, I will definitely be able to digest them safely, improve my foundation, and quickly complete the third spiritual essence solidification for me..."

After some planning, Li Ye made a slight adjustment to the formation and planted Hanyang pear trees and Yuanhua fruit trees around the Kongjie tree.

Over the years, the number of green silk and silver grass in the mountains has gradually increased. After reaching a certain scale, its regulating and gathering effect on spiritual energy has become more and more amazing.

With them acting as the center of the formation, the spiritual energy level of the entire Pingyang Mountain has been improved, and the center of the formation, the Sky Realm Tree, has reached a quasi-third-level state.

If necessary, the spiritual energy in other areas can be reduced at any time to completely raise the spiritual energy here to the third level.

As long as it is not large-scale planting, there is no need to bother with the spiritual fields. Planting two more third-level trees is not a problem!

[......]

Li Ye waited with bated breath. As the information on the panel finished displaying, the anticipation faded. "Sure enough, it's not really realistic to pull out a miracle from a single draw..."

He couldn't help but complain.

These two spiritual plants are both of the type that can stably produce spiritual fruits. If he can really stimulate [Tongtian] or [Muling] and finally give birth to them, it will definitely be of great help to him. He naturally has some ideas.

This result was obviously due to his overthinking.

But this is not the end. The two fruit trees have different characteristics. Now that they have just taken root, it will take time for the many effects of their entries to be fully realized and transformed.

He still needs to set up some formations to create a suitable environment for them. Once they are strong and healthy and in a stable state, he can avoid all these troubles.

"Also... these two spiritual plants enjoy the nourishment of the spiritual energy of the formation, and at the same time, they also add spirituality to the formation..."

"The Hanyang Pear Tree is yin on the inside and yang on the outside, and the Yuanhua Fruit Tree has pure spiritual energy. Although they don't have any special abilities to fight enemies, incorporating them into the formation can enrich the wood spiritual energy of the Azure Sky Tree Sea Formation, making it evolve and become even stronger..."

"Unconsciously, the Azure Sky Tree Sea Formation now has quite a few spiritual plant formation centers..."

"From this point on, my formation method is probably based on spiritual plants as the core, evolving the power of the myriad plants and trees!"

Li Ye's eyes flashed with thought, "When I reach the end, perhaps I will create a world of plants and trees, a world of my own, with endless spiritual plants living with me!"

This is the realm recorded in the classics, which is really far away for Li Ye now.

But thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel excited and yearning.

If he really reaches that level, perhaps he will no longer lack spiritual land to cultivate spiritual plants?
………………

Qiandao Water City was ultimately unable to swallow its anger.

Less than a year after the end of the first war, Jingguo, under the call of Qiandao Shuicheng, started the war and launched an attack on the State of Wu with the strength of the whole country.

Its main purpose is revenge, not aggression for profit.

The army of monks, led by Qiandao Water City, headed straight for the Jiuding Valley with a very clear goal.

The other forces that were summoned were left alone by them and began to stir up trouble in the State of Wu, attacking and plundering everywhere.

The situation in the Wu State was thrown into chaos, with wars breaking out everywhere every day. Even though Jiuding Valley tried to mobilize its forces to help stop the Qiandao Water City army, no one responded in this situation.

Just like when the Wu State invaded Jing State, there were even many guides who took the initiative to report and uncovered many secret strongholds set up by the Jiuding Valley in various places for Qiandao Water City.

In this way, the army advanced with unstoppable force and finally reached Jiuding Valley.

Li Ye, who had been waiting for such an opportunity, also arrived in person and lurked in the distance of the battlefield.
