I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 161 Opening the Spirit Field (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

After Jiang Yishun escorted Xin Wushuang back, he arrived at the foot of Liuyue Peak and the shore of Yangui Lake.

Five wilted blood ginseng babies were released. Their bodies were shriveled and wrinkled, their tender leaves drooping, and their roots were limp and curled up in a ball, looking just like dried radish strips.

Jiang Yi made a hand gesture with one hand and flicked his sleeve.

As the spring rain pattered down, the fine droplets gently fell, causing the blood ginseng babies to tremble, and the wrinkles on their skin unfolded at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The dark red of the sinister color faded, gradually revealing a light red luster as clear as jade. The roots were full of water, and five clusters of pale yellow flowers bloomed among the tender leaves at the top. The stamens shone with a hazy light in the rain.

These little guys, who used to be full of evil spirits and bared their teeth in the Qingdi Palace's medicine garden, now exude pure immortal energy.

They all turned to Jiang Yi, the wood spirit vitality emanating from her possessing an irresistible allure for the blood ginseng dolls.

"Yeah!"

The shortest one suddenly sprang up, its whiskers spreading as it lunged at Jiang Yi.

Two beams of light, one white and one red, emerged from the Yin-Yang Pendant and simultaneously blocked Jiang Yi's path.

Don't you dare flirt with my master! ヽ(｀д)ノ

(ー`ー) The elixirs are meant to be refined so I can earn money; I can't use the money I earn to support them.

The five little ones were knocked away by the two 'iron towers', their ginseng flowers on their heads were crooked, their mouths were pouting, and they looked at Jiang Yi with eyes full of tears.

"Ahem~ Stand still, everyone!"

Jiang Yi gave the order, and the five blood ginseng babies immediately pushed and shoved each other, forming a crooked horizontal line.

The shortest one secretly stretched out its tendrils, trying to hook Jiang Yi's shoe tip. Hong Li bared its teeth, scaring it so much that it wrapped all its tendrils around itself, trembling with fear.

"Now that you've fallen into my hands, you'd better plant spiritual herbs for me. I won't treat you unfairly. Now, use your 'earth vein perception' abilities to help me find a spiritual field around this lake."

Yea!

Upon receiving Jiang Yi's order, the five blood ginseng babies excitedly shook the tender leaves on their heads, and their ginseng whiskers all burrowed into the ground to begin sensing.

The shortest one, who didn't seem very bright, buried its head in the mud in its haste, leaving only its short roots sticking out. When its companions pulled it out, it spat out a couple of mouthfuls of mud.

Their eyes gleamed with intelligence. At first, they lined up in a row, but soon they started running around in all directions, scattered everywhere.

Hua Gu spread out her body, transforming into a suspended cloud chair, and proactively moved closer to let Jiang Yi sit down and rest. She even thoughtfully emitted a cool aura to help Jiang Yi drive away the summer heat.

Jiang Yi flicked his golden leaf fan and slowly fanned himself, sighing, "I originally wanted to cultivate the ever-changing Hong Li, but I never expected that she would end up becoming the ever-changing Hua Gu."

Hongli, this rebellious girl!

Hong Li sat on the ground, unmoved, staring at the blood ginseng dolls with ulterior motives.

If they're no longer useful, can we throw them into the Green Wood Cauldron to refine them? They look quite old; they should be able to refine top-grade pills, right?

Yea!

One of the blood ginseng dolls suddenly sensed a place with abundant spiritual energy and became so excited that it danced around. However, it tripped over someone's root and rolled a long way away, bumping right into another companion who was focused on sensing the energy with its eyes closed.

The two blood ginseng babies collided with a thud, their tendrils tangled into a knot, and they rolled into the grass with a loud cry.

Two others started arguing because they disagreed, and soon they began pulling each other's beards and fighting.

In the end, the spirit field was still not found, and the five blood ginseng babies were fighting each other, tearing off tendrils and leaves all over the ground.

When Hongli tried to break up the fight, she was accidentally lashed out by one of its whiskers, and it almost breathed fire and roasted them.

Looking at the chaotic scene, Jiang Yi felt a nameless anger rising in her heart, and she felt very annoyed.

"stop fighting!"

Jiang Yi let out a low growl, startling Hua Gu. Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yi released the guardian stone golem, which was not yet fully repaired.

Upon seeing the guardian stone golem, the five blood ginseng dolls jumped up in fright, immediately lowered their heads and returned to order, obediently starting to work.

After more than an hour of exploration, they finally sensed a depression on the east side of the lake, about fifty or sixty acres in size, with moist soil and hidden tributaries of spiritual veins flowing through it.

As soon as Jiang Yi had a thought, Hua Gu led her to the chosen location and buried the five small cauldrons that were part of the formation.

The moment the great formation was activated, five beams of spiritual light shot into the sky from the small cauldron, intertwining to form a net and creating a semi-transparent dome above the depression.

Fine spiritual mist seeped from the soil, enveloping the entire spiritual field in a hazy mist.

Sensing the aura of the great formation, the stone puppet guarding the garden struggled to support its body and stepped heavily into the depression, its stone body resonating with the formation.

The empty eye sockets gradually regained their light, scanning the depression and the blood ginseng dolls huddled together in fear. It nodded in satisfaction, having found a place where it could continue to shine.

Jiang Yi threw the medicinal herb seeds and seedlings she had bought, along with some of the roots and stems of the Qingdi Palace medicinal herbs she had kept, directly onto the ground.

"Get to work, you oxen and horses!"

The stone puppet guarding the garden took a heavy step, causing the ground to tremble. The originally soft, low-lying soil began to churn under the influence of spiritual energy, as if being plowed and straightened by an invisible plow, neatly dividing the land into rows of furrows.

The stone puppet bent down to pick up the medicinal herb seeds and seedlings from the ground, its rough stone fingers surprisingly agile.

It evenly scattered the seeds between the furrows, and with each handful scattered, a faint earth-elemental spiritual power would overflow from its stone palm, enveloping the seeds in a protective halo.

The blood ginseng babies hopped and skipped behind the stone golem, their slender roots precisely inserting into the soil, gently pressing each seed to the right depth, and crystal-clear spiritual liquid seeping from the tips of the ginseng, dripping onto the seeds.

Ee-ya-ya

After sowing and transplanting were completed, the blood ginseng seedlings dispersed to various parts of the field, their tendrils stretching out and trembling rhythmically.

The elixir, like raindrops, fell gently and seeped into the soil. The moment it entered the soil, tender green buds broke through the earth and unfurled their first pair of leaves at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As the sun gradually set in the west, the stone puppet guarding the garden, who had been busy all afternoon, stood at the end of the field ridge. Looking at this spiritual field that was beginning to take shape, the corners of the stone puppet's mouth actually turned up slightly.

It bent down, scooped up a handful of soil mixed with spiritual liquid, carefully covered the roots of a seedling, and patted it down.

This movement, repeated for thousands of years, now carries an unprecedented lightness.

"This is what idyllic rural life is all about~~~~"

Once these spiritual herbs mature, Hong Li will be able to produce enough raw materials to refine Foundation Establishment stage Spirit Nourishing Pills, Spirit Inheritance Pills, and some common pills to be self-sufficient.

Jiang Yi leaned back in the soft, cool cloud chair and yawned contentedly, all her anxiety vanished, and her heart was at peace.

True spiritual practice should be like the growth of plants, accepting the sunshine and rain with equanimity, and not complaining when encountering wind and frost. It should be natural and effortless, which is also the essence of the lazy way.

Laziness kept creeping in, and drowsiness washed over Jiang Yi as she played with the peach pit she had obtained from the secret pavilion, and she fell asleep without realizing it.

As Jiang Yi drifted into a dream, the sound of ripples from Yan Gui Lake still lingered in her ears. The sound of the rippling water gradually distorted, transforming into the distant and near afternoon chirping of cicadas.

Sunlight and tree shadows swayed before her eyes, and a halo of light spread out before her. Jiang Yi raised her hand to shield her eyes and found herself standing in the Xuandu Temple, with the mottled vermilion pillars and eaves vaguely visible around her.

The shadows of the trees swayed, and more than twenty cultivators dressed in blue Taoist robes stood in formation on one side of the ancient peach tree, their long swords gleaming coldly.

"Heavenly Gang Subduing Demon Formation, Activate!"

drink!
With a clear shout from the leading old Taoist priest, everyone simultaneously rose to their feet.

The sound of swords slicing through the air suddenly rang out. The Taoists moved in perfect unison, their robes fluttering as the arcs of light from their sword tips connected in a continuous line.

The old man walked around with his hands behind his back, explaining in a slow voice.

"The Heavenly Generals are the pivot of the Big Dipper, the vanquishers of demons, the embodiment of righteousness. Their swords harmonize with the stars, their hearts wield thunder, slaying evil spirits in the netherworld and suppressing demons in the eight wastelands..."
