Cultivation begins with planting techniques

"I didn't expect you to be so diligent. You've reclaimed two hundred acres of spiritual farmland in such a short time..."

Deacon Pan looked at Li Ye in surprise.

He still looked like a young man full of vigor and vitality, and the sharpness that was faintly revealed in him had not been affected at all by the farming work during this period.

His expression became even weirder.

This kid really came to his spiritual medicine garden to farm and practice!
He was able to complete the training of this martial art so smoothly, and his proficiency in the Qingmu Sword Technique seemed to be no worse than that of the Tianjian Sect disciples of the same level!
With such talent and age, he is more in line with the requirements of his secret method than other people in the medicine garden.

It's just that my cultivation is still a little low...

"Deacon Pan, thank you for your kind words. Since I have the energy to spare, I will certainly work harder and make my trip worthwhile."

Li Ye replied respectfully.

It has been about a month since then, and this person just remembered to come and inspect Lingtian. It is really comfortable to be the manager.

Such a great degree of freedom is exactly what he wants.

But... why does the way this guy looks at him seem a little wrong?
After hearing Li Ye's answer, Deacon Pan restrained his gaze and temporarily suppressed his thoughts.

The old man nodded and said in a deep voice, "Well! You've done well. When the contribution is settled, I will take into account your increased production!"

"Thank you, Deacon Pan!"

With a look of delight on his face, Li Ye quickly thanked him.

However, Deacon Pan's face darkened again:
"But since you've already cultivated so much land and planted spiritual plants, if you fail to care for it properly, leaving the fields barren and damaging the seedlings, then you're being too greedy and reckless, and you're not doing your job properly. Not only will you be rewarded, you'll be severely punished!"

"Do you know that?"

As if overwhelmed by his power, Li Ye shuddered and replied in panic:

"I will definitely live up to the deacon's expectations!"

Seeing that he understood the pros and cons, Deacon Pan did not stay with him for long. After confirming the condition of the two hundred acres of spiritual fields, he simply left and continued to inspect the next area.

But before he left, the last look he gave Li Ye was filled with some thought and greed.

He thought that Li Ye, who was in the Juyuan realm, had no spiritual consciousness and therefore could not detect it.

But from beginning to end, Li Ye saw all his expressions, and it was impossible for him to miss such a look.

After he left, Li Ye lowered his head and continued to tend to the spiritual field, but a hint of amusement appeared on his expression.

"It seems that even though Deacon Pan's cultivation has declined and his life span is probably not much left, he hasn't completely given up hope of cultivating after spending so many years in this spiritual medicine garden..."

With his experience, how could he not see the message revealed by the change in this person's expression just now?

It was simply because I saw that his transformation to cultivation was going smoothly and his sword energy was pure that I had some other thoughts.

Most likely, they wanted to use some secret technique to take away his magical vitality, replenish it for him, and repair his damaged foundation.

Judging from his hundreds of years of practice, this is the most consistent behavioral logic for a monk of this age.

"Tsk! My clan was wiped out after traveling through time, and then I was used as nutrients for cultivation by my clan members. How come I have come to this Tianjian Sect and encountered such a coveted thing..."

"After all, it seems that only the Lin family is slightly more reliable. Even though they have some concerns, they still fulfilled their promise. They can be regarded as repaying a favor..."

Li Ye himself found it a little funny.
"There are pitfalls everywhere. I can't help but run into trouble just by trying to farm. Is my luck really that bad?"

"Or... is it that my sudden journey across time has caused the destiny of this world to target me?"

Although it was just his guess, this situation was not impossible.

As an outsider, unlike the original body, the gold finger of the panel attached to it is still unfathomable, with no limit in sight. It is normal that it will be instinctively rejected by the world to a certain extent.

This is because the suppression of the power of the realm was dissolved by the Void Realm Fruit, and his own body was resurrected, and his spiritual energy was eliminated to the point where there was not much left.

Otherwise, he might have encountered worse situations.

After thinking about this, Li Ye was not discouraged, but had more ideas.

"But the origin of this world has been severely damaged. Perhaps it's related to that ancient tree in the Void Realm. Even if the aura I carry is unfamiliar, the changes I bring to the Purifying Willow may be a good remedy to resolve this world's stubborn illness..."

His eyes flickered. "If I can improve the situation in this world, perhaps then not only will this world no longer target me, but they might even hailed me as the son of destiny who will save the world!"

In fact, he already had some ideas about improving the spiritual conditions in this world.

With his level of planting skills and the ability to transform into the Purifying Willow with [Spirit Transformation], he can use this as a foundation to cultivate a subspecies with similar effects.

However, no matter how it is implemented, I am afraid that it will eventually attract the covetousness of the sects in this world, causing a lot of trouble.

Even if it really needs to be implemented, it should be considered after successful practice.

Once this is accomplished, it should be helpful for him to find the ancient tree in the sky.

"As for now, I should focus on farming and improving my cultivation..."

Li Ye looked calm.

As for Deacon Pan's covetousness, since he had guessed it, he also knew what was going on.

No matter what the other party wants to do with him, any evil skill or secret method that absorbs other people's vitality and magic power to make up for one's own lifespan and cultivation requires cultivation.

I am only at the fifth level of Ju Yuan, which is nothing compared to the Xiantian cultivators.

Even if Deacon Pan wanted to devour him, there wouldn't be much benefit to be gained.

The other party will most likely not act immediately. At the very least, they will not be able to hold back until he reaches the seventh level of Ju Yuan.

Considering his aptitude as a top-grade spiritual root revealed after receiving the blessing of [Close to Nature], it would take at least two to three years without other supplements of elixirs.

There is still so much time left, which is enough for Li Ye to develop again. He just needs to be prepared and there is no need to rush to deal with it.

"Over the past few days, my farming and tree planting have begun to take shape, and the efficiency of the energy of plant life is increasing. I will be able to be promoted to Holy Tree Walker soon..."

"With the help of the Purifying Willow, my cultivation efficiency has tripled, and my mana level has begun to loosen..."

"Two or three years would be enough for me to at least reach the eighth level of Ju Yuan and the sixth or seventh level of Holy Tree Walker. Combining this with the Dao formation, it wouldn't be difficult to deal with a Xiantian cultivator whose Dao cultivation was damaged..."

He planned things clearly and was not panicked, still following his own steps.

………………

Some time passed.

Li Ye was in the tree house, his body transformed into the shape of a pure and turbid willow, the magic power in his body surged rapidly, quickly refining the wood spiritual energy gathered from the surroundings.

As he planted more trees, his mountain formation, even without activating it, had the ability to gather some wood spiritual energy, which would be beneficial during his cultivation.

As time passes little by little.

Li Ye's magic power in Dantian increased, and he successfully broke through to the sixth level of Ju Yuan!
At the same time, the sacred tree rune in his sea of consciousness, which was absorbing the energy of plants and trees as he practiced martial arts, also vibrated and evolved, climbing up again and sprouting new buds.
