Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

On the cloud boat, a round-faced Taoist nun brewed tea, and the two chatted idly as the steam rose.

Half an hour passed in a flash, and Wang Quan got up to leave.

Before leaving, he turned around and asked, "You really don't plan to go back to the lower house?"

"Now that you have this sunflower essence, your future achievements are limitless!"

The round-faced Taoist nun smiled and said, "No need!"

"With this sunflower essence, I can also achieve something in my hometown."

"Furthermore, it's not that I won't return to the Lower Temple; I will definitely go back after I complete my Foundation Establishment!"

"Then, let's drink and have a good time!"

Wang Quan nodded, then transformed into seventy-two beams of earthly spirit light and headed straight for the Drowning Lower Courtyard.

The round-faced Taoist nun waved her sleeve, and the tea table and tea vanished.

She opened the box, looked at the four pairs of sunflower essences inside, and suddenly smiled.

The cultivators who had been watching from the side came over, wanting to have a chat with her.

The round-faced Taoist nun smiled and exhaled a cloud of smoke onto the deck.

With the next breath, smoke and clouds swirled, and from them grew a peach tree, which blossomed and bore fruit.

"If you can create identical peach trees, we can become Daoist partners!"

"If you can't do it, don't bother me!"

Upon hearing this, many cultivators were overjoyed: "This is just a minor spell!"

"I can grow not only peach trees, but also plum trees, apricot trees, pear trees, jujube trees, and more!"

"Fellow Daoist, look, I've planted a peach grove for you, so that the peach blossoms may bloom in your honor!"

The monk somehow found a handful of peach pits and threw them onto the deck, then took out a watering can and poured water on them.

Click!

Click!

The peach pit takes root, sprouts, grows into a peach tree, and blossoms and bears fruit.

The monk laughed heartily, ready to take the beauty home.

As a result, in the next breath, the peach tree planted by the round-faced Taoist nun suddenly pulled its roots out of the deck, then plucked two branches, walked menacingly to the peach tree, and smashed the peach trees one by one with a stick.

Many cultivators were dumbfounded.

A few monks planted peach trees.

As a result, the peach tree, which had just blossomed and borne fruit, was still plucked and destroyed by the round-faced Taoist nun's peach tree.

This result left everyone dumbfounded.

Many cultivators tried repeatedly, but no matter what methods they used, the peach trees they planted were eventually all blown apart.

In an instant, these cultivators completely gave up on their plans.

Several dozen days passed in the blink of an eye, and the cloud boat arrived above the hometown of the round-faced Taoist nun.

The female cultivator leaped off the cloud boat and landed on auspicious clouds.

When she returned to her hometown, she was welcomed by many younger people.

However, the situation of her juniors and the family made her frown: "How did the family suddenly fall into such a state of decline?"

An elderly family member sighed, "Things were fine a few years ago, but in the last two years, a new law has suddenly become popular."

"Although the new cultivators are weak in strength, they outnumber each other!"

"They are constantly squeezing and robbing our family's living space!"

The round-faced Taoist nun sneered, "So, in just two or three years, you've fallen so low?"

The elders of the family remained silent in shame, while the young cultivators muttered, "The new method of cultivation is fast; one can easily reach the Qi Refining stage. As long as one has Foundation Establishment Pills, one can easily step into the Foundation Establishment realm!"

"Even many people in our family have switched to practicing the new method!"

"They outnumber us and are forcing us in; we have no choice but to back down!"

The round-faced Taoist nun sighed, "Fool!"

"The new cultivators are nothing but a bunch of leeks to be harvested!"

"Their sole purpose is to provide us with resources at low prices."

"How could you bow down to them? It's shameful!"

One of the younger members of the family said with a worried look, "But there are too many of them."

The round-faced Taoist nun sighed, "A large crowd is a good thing, so why the long face?"

An elder from the family said weakly, "The new cultivators rely on their numbers to suppress people with power and reason."

"We can't withstand this pressure of universal condemnation and the will of the people!"

The round-faced Taoist nun was dumbfounded: "What did you say?"

The elder of the family repeated, "They outnumber us and use reason to pressure us, and they use the will of the people to pressure us."

"We had to retreat step by step."

"us...."

The round-faced Taoist nun took a deep breath and said sternly, "From now on, you are no longer in charge of the family!"

"From this moment forward, I control the family!"

"So, who objects?"

An elder member of the family said in a deep voice, "I object!"

The round-faced Taoist nun rubbed her hands together, and hundreds of lightning bolts poured out, landing around the old man.

Boom! Boom!

Thunder and fire exploded, the old man's flesh and blood were torn apart, and only the Yin spirit fled in panic.

As a result, the Yin spirit hadn't gone far when the round-faced Taoist nun patted a sachet at her waist. A beam of white light shot out from the sachet, drawing the Yin spirit back and devouring it with a crunch.

For a moment, everyone in the family was dumbfounded and stunned.

The round-faced Taoist nun smiled: "Now, who objects?"

The crowd remained silent, trembling with fear.

The round-faced Taoist nun smiled: "Very good, now I will tell you:

If reasoning with people were effective, the Drowning Lower Temple wouldn't have created 108,000 spells.

If the will of the people is truly effective, the lower house of the government will not use the fundamental law and Taoist scriptures as a threshold to select sentient beings.

If having a large number of people is useful, why bother cultivating immortality?

Is cultivating immortality just about gaining thousands upon thousands of external organs, creating thousands upon thousands of useless cowards, and relying on sheer numbers and reason?

"No, this isn't how you cultivate immortality!"

"Cultivating immortality is for reaping the benefits of all living beings, strengthening oneself, achieving longevity, and becoming supreme!"

"In the world of cultivation, ordinary people, martial artists, and those practicing new cultivation methods are all just leeks and raw materials!"

"With more of them, the cultivation path of orthodox cultivators will be smoother!"

"And you—my family members—are you to be the leeks, the raw materials? Or are you to be the harvesters?"

Linjiang Mountain:

The jujube trees are growing healthily, and the medicinal herbs are thriving.

A large number of spirits dug deep pits, filled them with dung, and planted swaying sunflower spirits.

"Eat manure with all your might, reproduce prolifically, and contribute to the Sunshine Project of the Flower-Sprinkling Master!"

The sunflower spirits, holding sandalwood incense, chanted scriptures and worshipped the great sun.

Once the sunlight, refined through repeated processes, has matured, bees, butterflies, and other spirits will come carrying gourds to collect it.

After some time, countless sunflower seeds appeared on the large faces of these sunflower fairies.

They threw away the sandalwood incense, formed hand seals, and chanted a scripture that said "few children, many blessings."

As you recite the scriptures, the number of melon seeds decreases.

In the end, only three or five, or seven or eight, golden melon seeds remained on the large plate.

Flower fairies and other spirits snatched away the melon seeds and threw them onto the biggest mountain of dung.

Those melon seeds took root, sprouted, and grew.

With the continuous nourishment of various spirits' magic, spiritual energy, medicinal herbs, and the light of the sun and moon, they can become qualified sunflower spirits in just over ten days.

Immediately after their birth, spirits instilled memories into them through magic:

Loyalty to the Flower-Sprinkling Taoist King Quan!

Loyalty prevails over the land!

Loyalty forges the great cause of sunshine!

Loyalty to the great cause of procreation!

In short, besides loyalty, it's all about absolute loyalty!

Occasionally, some defective sunflower spirits appear on the dung mountain; these defective ones are sealed in boxes and then sent to Qian Xiuyue Manor by the spirits.

There weren't many sunflower spirits in Qian Xiuyue's manor, but there were many gourds.

Relying on the mysteries of Yin-Yang Harmony Magic and the essence of stars, Qian Xiuyue devoted herself to researching the hybridization of the sunflower spirit and the gourd spirit.
