Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 32: Did I actually walk into a trap? (Please read on!)
"Brother Gu, look at how well Junior Brother Li's spiritual field is growing... It's only been a few days, and it feels like the spiritual rice has already completed the initial stage of absorbing nutrients and can already grow upwards!"

On the hillside, Yao Shaohui exclaimed to Gu Daojin in surprise.

They arrived at the elder's cave early but were not in a hurry to go to the fields to work.

Now, looking down, one can clearly see the status of several spiritual fields.

Among them, Li Ye took the best care, followed by the other two, and Xiong Yinxiu the worst.

For spiritual plants to show such advantages, it must be that all aspects of them have been optimized from the very beginning when they were planted.

This will stimulate its vitality early, allowing it to absorb nutrients and germinate and grow earlier.

If such an advantage is maintained in subsequent care, the output of the entire spiritual field will undoubtedly be infinitely close to the upper limit of the output of spiritual plants.

One step faster, every step faster, the same applies to spiritual plant cooking.

And since Li Ye can achieve this level, in Yao Shaohui's opinion, he is only half a step away from becoming a true second-level spiritual plant husband!
"indeed so!"

Gu Daojin nodded in agreement.

He turned his head and looked at the second-level spiritual field covered by the formation. Seeing the young sunflower seedlings sprouting out of it, he sighed for a moment.

"It's not just the blood rice. Even the scorching sunflowers he helped the elders plant are more vibrant and their growth rate is clearly higher than the others!"

"But the two of us aren't bad either!"

Yao and Gu looked at each other and smiled.
"At least compared to a certain shrew, the sunflowers she ultimately grew with her proud craftsmanship aren't much better than the ones you and I grow!"

I watched Li Ye's technique that day, and later he taught me the secrets personally. Combined with their own skills, which were not inferior to others, they were able to take good care of the sunflower.

As a result, Xiong Yinxiu's advantage was no longer evident.

Now there is no other way except hard work.

Standing beside his own field, Xiong Yinxiu looked at Yao and Gu coldly, and could not help but sneer at their arrogant words.
"You can only laugh now. If Li Ye still doesn't show up in a few days, what can you two use to fight me..."

"How can it be?!"

Before he could finish his words, Xiong Yinxiu was stunned, as if he had seen something incredible, and his expression instantly collapsed.

"Good morning, Junior Brother Li!"

"Good morning, two senior brothers!"

Greeted by the smiles of Yao and Gu, Li Ye slowly walked down the hillside and appeared in Xiong Yinxiu's sight.

He looked calm and smiling, showing no signs of injury at all.

"Impossible... With this person's level of cultivation, how could he possibly survive in Old Zhao's hands!"

Xiong Yinxiu murmured, still somewhat in disbelief.

Regardless of whether this woman believed it or not, Li Ye appeared here intact and appeared in front of her.

And the fact that he arrived intact meant that Old Zhao had already...

No! With Lao Zhao's level of skill, even if he can't defeat him, he'll definitely be able to escape!

Xiong Yinxiu's thoughts emerged little by little, and the hatred in his eyes when he looked at Li Ye became deeper and deeper unconsciously.

Li Ye seemed to have noticed it, and smiled gently as he looked from afar.

At this moment, a worm-like thing was thrown on the ground by him without knowing when, right in his path...

Bang!

As if hurt by this gaze and this smile, Xiong Yinxiu looked away and saw the insects on the ground.

As she watched the insect being crushed, the woman immediately turned around and covered her chest, as if she was suppressing great pain, with a ferocious and terrifying expression.

She took a deep breath.

After a moment, Xiong Yinxiu's expression returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

He turned around and entered the spiritual field and continued farming.

"Pity……"

Seeing her actions, Li Ye shook his head.

From Xiong Yinxiu's reaction, he was certain that the big man was the one she sent to attack and kill him.

But if this woman saw his series of actions and immediately lost her mind and rushed over, that would be the best case scenario!

Even if I fight back and take care of him on the spot, it won't violate the rules of the sect at all.

But now it seems that no matter what her relationship with the masked man is, perhaps the feelings between them are still a little bad, not enough for her to risk everything.

However, given Xiong Yinxiu's past temperament, she certainly wouldn't tolerate this escalating hatred for long. She just had to be prepared, wait for him to jump out, and then kill him with one legitimate blow!
…………

The day's work is over.

Li Ye left early as usual.

Yao Shaohui and Gu Daojin were taking care of the spiritual fields that might have been missed while chatting from time to time.

Xiong Yinxiu walked out of her own field and headed towards the long slope in the middle as usual.

As she approached the spiritual field that Li Ye was in charge of.

quietly.

Long worms that looked like earthworms but as thin as threads and had suckers wriggling on their surfaces crawled out from Xiong Yinxiu's trouser legs.

As soon as it touched the ground, it turned into a color almost identical to the ground, becoming difficult to detect and burrowing into the ground.

They gathered together, wriggling rapidly underground, and moving rapidly towards Li Ye's spiritual field.

"With these little cuties lurking in the spiritual field, sucking the energy accumulated by your rice seedlings, the vitality of your rice seedlings will be greatly reduced within three days..."

"By then, Li Ye's attempt to show off his ability to overdraw to force the rice seedlings to grow taller, ultimately destroying a spiritual field, will be enough to infuriate the elders, and they will expel you!"

"And while you were working, these little cuties had already inadvertently entered your body, absorbing your blood and essence to grow and reproduce..."

"When you are devastated, weakened, and in despair, I will take your life to avenge Old Zhao!"

Xiong Yinxiu's face was calm, but her heart was like a turbulent sea, with sinister thoughts constantly emerging.

This is not just revenge, it's also about eliminating competitors!
As long as Li Ye is gone, Yao and Gu will not be a match for Xiong Yinxiu.

She is the only one qualified to take care of the spiritual field in this cave!
This was originally the reason why she asked the big man to attack and kill Li Ye, but she didn't expect that after a day it became secondary.

As she got closer to the top of the mountain, her eyes flickered again when she saw the vibrant sunflowers in the second-level spiritual field.

These blood-sucking insects live by absorbing the essence of blood, and can also turn into blood and dissolve into the earth in a moment of her thought.

There is no trace left at all.

Even if we investigate, we won’t be able to find her!
"If Li Ye were to use the same method to deceive the elders and damage even the Fiery Sunflower, the elders' wrath would be even more terrifying than simply losing my qualifications, and it would be unbearable..."

Xiong Yinxiu had been suppressed by Li Ye repeatedly, and even her husband had died at the hands of Li Ye. At this time, she had become insane.

Thinking of this, Xiong Yinxiu fixed her gaze, and immediately some of the long worms that had just drilled into the ground from under her feet moved towards the second-level spiritual field.

"How dare you bitch!"

Angry shouts rang out, and Elder Ji, who had appeared in the back mountain at some point, slapped out from a distance.

With just a sweep of Qi, Xiong Yinxiu instantly vomited blood from his mouth and flew out like a broken sack.

The next moment, the formation covering the mountain began to move.

In the spiritual fields, spiritual light suddenly appeared and swept across the surrounding land, and all the insects were killed in an instant.

The commotion was so loud that Yao Shaohui and Gu Daojin, who were still in the spiritual field, were confused and stunned.

Li Ye followed Elder Ji and slowly walked out of the hall, watching everything with an expressionless face.

"You...how did you know I had this ability? The manuscript in Old Zhao's hand doesn't even record it..."

Xiong Yinxiu spat out blood, shifted his frightened gaze away from Elder Ji, and still looked at Li Ye with resentment.

"How would I know what methods you have..."

Li Ye replied calmly,

"I just told Elder Ji everything. If you don't have any bad intentions, I can't do anything to you today!"

"you……"

Xiong Yinxiu's eyes widened. Did she fall into the trap?

At this point, she could no longer hold on, the injuries in her body broke out, she vomited blood and died on the spot.

Elder Ji made a move and the storage bag on Xiong Yinxiu's waist flew straight towards him.

"Although you were doing this to protect yourself, your prompt reporting to me does count as a contribution to protecting the spiritual field... I'll give you this little bit of her goodness!"

Seeing Li Ye take it, Elder Ji glanced coldly at Xiong Yinxiu's body and snorted again.
"How dare you collude with outsiders to attack and kill my sect's disciples, and even dare to destroy my elixir for your own selfish gain..."

"The slut is simply dying!"
