Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 290 Ending
The news that the Jiuding Valley's spiritual vein had slipped down in rank and directly fallen to the first rank quickly spread throughout the four countries' cultivation world as Li Ye left.

Although they had lost a third-level spiritual land, not only did they lose a source of resources, but the disciples also had one less good place to distribute the benefits, which caused great pain to all the sects and families.

But they could only grit their teeth and swallow their anger. Not only did they not express any unnecessary dissatisfaction, but they actively sent messages to Pingyang Mountain, saying that they would definitely mine the spirit stone veins in Jiuding Valley and pay tribute to Master Li.

Well... at least there is still the spirit stone mine that can make money for a while. Although it is not as long-lasting as the spirit vein, I should be content.

Although we don't know what means Li Zhenren used to deal with the spiritual vein and what his purpose was, if Li Zhenren is not satisfied with taking the third-level spiritual vein of Jiuding Valley and sets his sights on their other three spiritual veins, that would really be the end of them!
And at this time.

After Master Li returned, the concentration and purity of the spiritual energy in Pingyang Mountain seemed to increase day by day.

There is a trend of gradually transforming towards the third level!
Such changes shocked countless monks.

This immediately reminded me of the previous drop in the level of the Jiuding Valley’s spiritual vein!
Now the other three sects had no other thoughts but were even more worried.

If Master Li can really transfer the origin of spiritual veins and improve other spiritual veins, then it seems that there is even more reason to target their spiritual veins!

During this short period of time, they immediately became very attentive and took the opportunity to send a female disciple who had some relationship with Li Ye to Pingyang Mountain.

If he wants to save the country in a roundabout way... at least if Master Li really wants to take action, he has to give them time to prepare!

However, what they didn't expect was that at this time, Li Ye quietly left Pingyang Mountain.

They can use any means to please him, but they don't even know where he is now.

Just as I was worried and confused.

Master Li... Could he be on his way to their mountain gate?
………………

The dragon horse summoned thick clouds to wrap itself and the chariot, and it could not reveal any trace while flying among the clouds.

"With the integration of the spiritual vein's essence, it won't be long before Pingyang Mountain's spiritual vein is upgraded to the third level. With sufficient spiritual energy supply, Pingyang Mountain can take this opportunity to expand..."

"Once the spiritual energy surges and permeates the spiritual land, the spiritual veins of the entire Pingyang Mountain will be significantly developed and expanded. Then I will have enough spiritual fields to plant different spiritual plants..."

"Accumulating spiritual essence to sacrifice to the Wood God Cauldron and deducing suitable cultivation elixir formulas is one thing, and I can also take this opportunity to improve and expand my entries..."

"And once those third-level spiritual plants report their achievements, even if my cultivation doesn't break through, my combat power should be significantly improved..."

Li Ye sat in the carriage, his eyes flashing as he thought silently.

Suddenly, as if he thought of something funny, he smiled slightly.

"But I didn't expect that after some news spread, those sects would be so scared, afraid that I would come and seize the spiritual veins!"

"It's not that I don't want to, it's just that it's not enough!"

Li Ye sighed softly, feeling a little regretful from the bottom of his heart.

For the Sky Realm Tree, the higher the level of the spiritual vein, the better the effect on its advancement.

If he could really cultivate a fourth-level spiritual vein, he could save some effort and wouldn't have to make any other plans.

However, according to the description in the Soul-stealing Method, if one wants to collect low-level spirit veins to advance, one must collect the origins of at least nine spirit veins and combine them into one before the spirit vein can be advanced.

In this barren land of the Four Kingdoms' cultivation world, there are only four third-level spirit veins, and it is precisely because of their existence that the four kingdoms were established.

Even if Li Ye took them all, he would still be far from advancing.

It would be too unrealistic to go to the countries outside the mountain to seize the origin of the spiritual veins and then come back to feed the spiritual veins of Pingyang Mountain.

The formation and rituals of the Soul-stealing Technique are complicated and cover a wide range. Once activated, it will cause the earth veins to move abnormally, causing quite a lot of noise.

This basically determined that it was impossible for him to seize a spiritual vein in a silent way. He could only rely on attacking the mountain gate, expelling the monks of the original sect, and forcibly occupying the spiritual land.

If you do this once or twice, you might be able to catch people off guard.

But do it five times?
The various sects in southern Xinjiang will definitely react and encircle and suppress him!

Li Ye has a good idea of his own strength. Now that he is in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm, he is confident that he is not inferior to anyone, and he can even hold his own against a cultivator in the middle stage.

But facing the siege from multiple sects?

Even though his cultivation had greatly improved after years of farming, he would have to be crazy to put himself in such danger!

Moreover, it takes more than three hours to extract the essence of the spiritual veins using the Soul-Snatching Technique... Such a long time is not enough to launch a blitzkrieg, and it is enough time for other sects to react.

As soon as this idea came into his mind, Li Ye gave up decisively.

"Ultimately, we'll have to find another workaround..." He shook his head, "But for now, let's not rush. Let's just let those sects scare themselves for a while... Let's finish this farming plan first!"

While he was thinking, a low groan came from the dragon horse, and the speed of the car gradually slowed down.

"Oh? Are we there yet?"

Li Ye came back to his senses, scanned with his spiritual sense, nodded, and walked straight out of the carriage.

There was something he should have done a long time ago, and now that he finally had the time, it was time to do it.

The dragon horse was waiting for him in the clouds. A faint green light appeared on Li Ye's body, and his figure quietly disappeared and fell straight down.

This place is a second-level spiritual land. The family located here seems to be quite prosperous. The houses are connected in a group, giving the impression of being guarded. There are many monks coming and going, and the servants and maids in the house are constantly busy.

A mere second-level formation could not stop Li Ye.

He sneaked into the formation quietly.

After entering the family mansion, Li Ye strolled leisurely along the way, observing the expressions and behaviors of the family members and listening to the servants and maids chatting and laughing while they were busy.

No one discovered his trace along the way, so he went deeper and came to a rather solemn and dignified family ancestral hall.

After taking a few steps closer, his eyes fell on two tablets that were obviously made of better materials and with finer craftsmanship than the others around them.

Li Shusen.

Yang Huimei.

This is the tablet of the parents of this life.

According to the rules, as a mortal woman, Li Ye's mother was not allowed to enter the ancestral hall to offer incense, but with Li Ye's achievement of the Golden Elixir, these rules became a joke!

Li Ye stepped forward silently and wiped the non-existent dust off the two tablets.

Then he took out three incense sticks he had made himself, lit them, and completed the worship to the two tablets with a solemn expression.

After doing this, Li Ye took a few steps back.

"Now that I have achieved the Golden Elixir and am striving to conquer the four kingdoms, I have lived up to the expectations of the two elders. If they knew about this in the afterlife, they would rest in peace..."

This made him recall his previous investigation into Li's father's death.

Although they mobilized all forces to find out certain results, they finally discovered that the monk had already died in the first demonic tide.

After decades of changes, Qi-cultivating cultivators have become too fragile, and Li Ye had expected this situation to occur.

That's all we can do.

He said softly, "After today's worship... all grudges are over. I have nothing to do with this Li family anymore!"

"From now on I will just be myself!"

After saying this, Li Ye felt a slight relief in his heart, as if something deeply rooted in his heart had been resolved. His mind moved slightly and his spiritual awareness was slightly improved.

At this point, he no longer stayed and turned around and left.

……

Not long after, someone came to the ancestral hall again to replace the incense.

But when his eyes fell on the two tablets that needed the most attention, his expression changed, and he was even more surprised when he saw the incense burning in front of them.

"This isn't the incense we usually use... Could someone have been here?!"

He looked surprised, turned around and ran away.

Not long after, Li Zongyin, who looked even older, came quickly and stopped in front of the tablet.

He stared for a long time, and finally sighed deeply.
"After paying respects to our parents... our bond with that person has finally come to an end..."

Although the clan's actions had severed their ties, he still had the opportunity to befriend this "down-and-out" cousin. Unfortunately, he was ultimately blinded by his momentary arrogance and became corrupted...

Now it’s too late to say anything!
