Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 284: Great Advancement in Taoism, Life-defining Magical Treasure

"Or maybe it's better to directly consume the essence of the mother tree to improve the effect..."

Li Ye muttered.

Although his own Sky Realm Tree had been greatly improved after absorbing the branches of the mother tree, judging from its condition, it still had a long way to go before it could be truly upgraded to the fourth level.

After all, the spiritual vein here is only at the second level, and using formations to forcibly gather it to the lower third level to cover a certain area is already the limit.

To a certain extent, it still hinders the growth of the Sky World Tree.

However, its essential rank is still quite far from the fifth rank even after it "eats" a section of the mother tree branch.

But even so, under the nourishment of the mother tree's origin, the Sky Realm Tree still directly broke the previous rule that it would not give the corresponding level of solidified spiritual progress if it was not promoted to the corresponding level.

After the [Tongtian] entry was promoted to level three, it once again began to accumulate new entry solidification progress.

"If each section of the tree trunk can advance the entry by more than ten percentage points as before, it might not be impossible to solidify the fourth-level entry in one go..."

Thinking of this, Li Ye's joy, which had just subsided, surged up again.

Since it has already begun, and the Sky Realm Tree has not yet been upgraded to the fifth level and truly reached the level of a mother tree, then feeding must continue.

As soon as he thought about it, a mother tree trunk appeared in his hand again. He directly plunged it into the soil in front of the Sky Tree, allowing it to wrap around it and absorb it.

As the Sky Tree absorbed its instincts, the familiar panel information and feedback once again drew Li Ye into perception.

Time once again fell into a rapid passage.

Three years later.

Li Ye opened his eyes again from the feedback from the Sky Realm Tree.

There seemed to be a hint of indifference in his eyes, and a blue-purple spiritual light emerged and transformed into a giant tree, evolving into many plants.

His aura seemed to have improved, revealing a certain unfathomable depth, but he seemed more like a plant spirit than a human cultivator.

The Sky Tree in front of him also changed drastically in appearance.

The trunk and branches of the tree completely turned into lush green and purple. The originally faint silver lines were now even more complex and mysterious, winding and interweaving like natural runes or forbidden formations.

It is exactly a smaller form of the mother tree. Just by looking at it, one can feel the great power of the void and the surging vitality.

The power of the boundary constructed by the tree's instinct almost has the tendency to separate Pingyang Mountain into a separate secret realm.

The combination of the realm and the blue sky forest formation has forced the power of this formation to the level of the third-grade upper grade!

The only flaw is the insufficient spiritual nourishment. For the time being, everything is just for show and it is difficult to truly exert the corresponding power.

But this tree has indeed undergone a qualitative change.

At this time, Li Ye glanced at the panel.

【Tongtian Level 48 (%)】

He shook his head with a hint of regret:
"Unfortunately, although the Sky Realm Tree has completed its Essence Level advancement and reached the fifth level, and the magical powers it has displayed are even more astonishing, its progress in solidifying its fourth entry is still far behind... The idea of raising its aptitude to the Heavenly Spiritual Root level in one fell swoop has not yet been achieved!"

As he uttered these words, the indifference on his face and the tree-like aura faded away, and liveliness reappeared in him.

He had given all the branches of the mother tree to the Sky Realm Tree for absorption, except for the materials previously consumed to improve the foundation of his natal puppet and the wood that was planned to be used to refine his natal magic weapon.

At this rate, even if he used the wood he had reserved for his natal puppet and magic weapon, it wouldn't be enough to solidify the spiritual essence entry. So there was no need to dwell on this.

All in all, using the mother tree as nutrients has saved him decades, or even more than a hundred years of hard work.

The Sky Tree also has greater potential and magic, and Li Ye is already content in his heart.

As for the matter of the fourth-level [Tongtian] entry, he would have to wait until he had finished all the matters at hand, and then look for another fourth-level spiritual vein to plan the upgrade of the Sky Realm Tree.

It absorbed the remains of the mother tree and truly became the only tree in the sky realm. It also has a profound heritage. As long as the conditions are in place, the difficulty of this tree breaking through the fourth level should not be as great as it was at the beginning!

In addition to this, the growth of the Sky Tree also brought back a lot of experience points and spiritual essence, which directly increased his lifespan by decades!

The growth rate is getting faster and faster.

Although his actual magical power has not improved much, it is only slightly better than ordinary Qi training and meditation, and is still far from the middle stage of the Golden Core.

However, he had been immersed in the perception of the incarnation of the Void Tree for three years, and had made great progress in many aspects such as the sensing and manipulation of wood, the void, vitality and spiritual energy.

More than three years ago, he was not yet proficient in evolving the spirit of the Sky Realm Tree with the Green Wood Divine Light. Although he successfully cut through Wu Yuan who had escaped into the void, he was secretly worried.

But to this day.

His secret magical powers of the Wood God Technique have greatly increased in both power and control.

If the divine light is used to evolve into the void, it will be able to travel through it freely. Even if the time and distance are limited, it will still be puzzling!

The power of his magic spells has been improved. As long as his life magic weapon is refined, although he is only in the initial stage of cultivation, Li Ye is confident that even if a cultivator in the middle stage of Jindan comes in front of him, he can fight him head-on without fear!

Moreover, as these many insights accumulated in his heart, Li Ye's understanding of the Wood God Technique also improved by leaps and bounds.

Not only did he naturally adjust his skills during the three years of comprehension to make them more suitable for his body, but once he acquired a third-level spiritual vein, his cultivation progress would be far superior to before.

It also inspired a lot of inspiration about Taoist magic in his mind, and he had the idea of integrating the many secret methods in his hands, and even the special effects of each item on the panel, to melt them into a unique magic power.

However, this matter still requires careful consideration and deduction, and we should not rush into it.

The real important thing right now is my natal magic weapon!
"It's time to refine my life-saving magic weapon... Three years have already passed in the blink of an eye. Counting the time I spent annihilating the demons, it's already been five or six years since I broke through to the Golden Core stage!"

"It's still too time-consuming to be constantly drawn into the insights of the spiritual essence. Although my Dao realm has improved tremendously, this delay is still beyond my expectations..."

Li Ye complained speechlessly.

Fortunately, this realization gave him a deeper understanding of the Wood God Art, and all his experience points over the past few years have been invested in refining equipment. Looking back at his previously planned refining ideas with his current perspective, there is still some room for improvement.

He pondered silently, then took out the jade slip and poured his mind into it, passing over whips, swords, staffs and other magical weapons in various shapes.

His mind focused on the blueprint of the magic weapon, the tripod.

Wooden God Cauldron!
He has the magical power to gather and refine the essence of plants and trees. He can refine the essence of many plants and trees and imprint them in the cauldron to increase their power and evolve various supernatural powers.

For someone like Li Ye who has a panel that can collect the spiritual essence of plants and trees, he can save a lot of hard work in refining the essence of plants and trees, and use purer essence to improve the power of magic weapons faster.

The magical powers of plants and trees obtained will be even more powerful!

And in the records of the Wood God Technique, and Li Ye's deductions and assumptions...

If the Sky Realm Tree is used as the material for refining the magic weapon, this cauldron will be even more magical!
