Dao Seed Immortal Lord

His skill in using the Spirit Condensation Technique became increasingly refined.

This spell requires condensing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into a liquid state, demanding extremely high levels of control over magical power.

In the beginning, Li Bai was lucky to succeed once or twice out of ten spells, and the spiritual liquid he condensed was only the size of a grain of rice.

But through day after day of practice, he can now successfully cast spells seven or eight times out of ten. Each time, the condensed spiritual liquid is the size of a small water droplet, crystal clear, and emits a faint spiritual light.

He used every drop of the spiritual liquid he received daily to water that miraculous sprout.

The bud also grew a bit taller during this time.

Originally only the size of a pinhead, it is now about half an inch tall. The tender green leaves have also increased from one to two. Although they are still pitifully small, the general shape of the oval leaves with fine serrations on the edges, smooth surfaces, and faint silver veins can be clearly seen.

Each time Li Bai watered it with his spiritual liquid, the tender buds would tremble slightly and the leaves would sway gently, as if expressing some kind of joy.

Besides tending to the miraculous buds, Li Bai did not slack off in cultivating the Five Spirit Seeds.

The growth of aquatic flowers, earth spirit mushrooms, and golden grass roots is also progressing rapidly.

The aquatic flowers were planted in a small puddle on the edge of the sacred field.

Li Bai specially brought in spring water from outside and added a few drops of spiritual liquid to it, making the water clear, sweet, and carrying a faint spiritual aura.

The roots of the aquatic flower stretch out in the water, pure white as jade. The petals gradually unfold from the bud, first revealing a hint of pale blue, then slowly opening, and finally blooming in full, like a blue lotus floating on the water, so beautiful it seems unreal.

The Ganoderma lucidum is planted in the most fertile soil of the Lingtian.

Li Bai used earth-movement techniques to loosen the soil and mixed in some powdered rice straw to increase its fertility.

The cap of the Ganoderma lucidum gradually emerges from the soil, starting as a small mound, then slowly cracking open to reveal the yellowish-brown cap inside.

The cap has fine lines on its surface, like the veins of the earth. As it grows day by day, those lines become clearer and clearer, with a faint glow flowing through them.

The roots of the Vajra Grass were planted on the edge of the Spirit Field, near the cave wall.

This kind of elixir is the most durable and has low requirements for soil, but it needs a lot of spiritual energy.

Li Bai set up a small spirit-gathering array around it to collect and nourish the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The leaves of the golden grass grow very quickly, reaching half a foot in height in less than ten days. The leaves are pale golden, firm as iron, and have sharp edges like blades.

Once, Li Bai accidentally cut his finger on a leaf, causing a gash that bled profusely.

"Good heavens, these blades of grass are sharper than knives," Li Bai muttered as he bandaged his wound, his eyes filled with delight.

The value of the root of the golden chrysanthemum depends largely on the quality of its leaves; the sharper the leaves and the closer their color is to pure gold, the higher the grade.

Although these few golden stalks of grass roots in front of me are not fully mature, their quality already far surpasses that of ordinary grass.

Besides tending to the spiritual plants, Li Bai never stopped cultivating every day.

The cultivation of the "Azure Wood Spiritual Essence Technique" is progressing well.

The biggest difference between this technique and ordinary Qi cultivation methods is that it is not just about accumulating magical power, but also about the resonance and interaction with spiritual plants.

Each time Li Bai cultivated, he could feel the wood spirit energy emanating from the spiritual plants in the cave resonating with his own magical power, gradually merging into his body and transforming into the spiritual power of the green wood.

The feeling was like being immersed in warm spring water, with every pore absorbing spiritual energy, comfortable and fulfilling.

With several Dao Seeds from the Tai Xuan Immortal Mirror activated simultaneously, the cultivation efficiency was astonishing.

In particular, the Wood Spirit Seed greatly assists in the cultivation of the Azure Wood Spirit Nourishing Technique. Obviously, the higher one's spiritual root aptitude, the easier the cultivation will be if one wants to cultivate this spiritual plant master technique.

The remaining Qi Refining Dao Seed doubled his efficiency in refining spiritual energy, while the Photosynthesis Dao Seed continuously provided additional spiritual energy. With the combination of the two, plus the Five Elements Dao Seeds' enhancement of the compatibility with his spiritual roots, Li Bai's current cultivation speed is much faster than when he first broke through to the first level of the Qi Refining Realm.

With each day's cultivation completed steadily, the progress of the Azure Wood Spiritual Essence Technique soared, and Li Bai's cultivation level increased and accumulated at a visible speed.

His magical practice was not neglected either.

Li Bai would repeatedly use the three basic spells for spirit plant masters—Wood Spirit Technique, Spirit Nourishing Technique, and Spirit Cultivation Technique—every day while tending to the spirit plants.

As he cast spells more often, his understanding of magic deepened.

The Wood Spirit Technique has evolved from initially only being able to barely generate a wisp of Wood Spirit energy to now being able to precisely control the concentration and flow of Wood Spirit energy, providing differentiated nourishment for different spiritual plants according to their needs.

The advancement of the Spirit Gathering Technique was even greater. When initially setting up the Spirit Gathering Array, Li Bai needed to concentrate fully and carefully inscribe the array patterns stroke by stroke. The slightest carelessness would lead to failure.

Now he can do it effortlessly, his magic power flowing at his fingertips, the array patterns forming naturally in one go.

The coverage area of ​​the Spirit Gathering Array has also expanded from the initial one-foot radius to three-foot radius, greatly improving the efficiency of gathering spiritual energy.

The art of nurturing spirits was Li Bai's most frequently used means of perception.

Each time he entered the cave, he would first use the Spirit Nourishing Technique to examine the growth status of all the spiritual plants.

This spell requires the caster to simultaneously probe the interior of the spiritual plant with both divine sense and magical power, sensing the state of every fiber and every cell.

Initially, Li Bai could only perceive some rough information, such as a lack of water, a lack of spiritual energy, and pests.

Now he can perceive even more subtle things, such as insect eggs on the back of leaves, slight rot at the ends of roots, and even the slight blockage of the flow of spiritual energy inside the plant.

These pieces of information may seem trivial, but for a plant practitioner, every detail is crucial.

The sooner pests are detected, the sooner they can be dealt with, preventing their spread. The sooner root problems are detected, the sooner watering and fertilization can be adjusted, preventing the plant from withering.

The cultivation of the Spirit Condensation Technique is the most difficult. This technique requires compressing the gaseous spiritual energy of heaven and earth into a liquid state, which places extremely high demands on both spiritual sense and magical power.

Each time Li Bai casts the Spirit Condensation Technique, he needs to concentrate fully, focusing his divine sense into a single line, and precisely controlling the rotation speed and compression force of his magical power.

If you are not careful, the spiritual liquid that has been condensed to half its original size will collapse and dissipate back into spiritual energy in the air.

After two months, Li Bai had just reached a minor level of proficiency in the Spirit Condensation Technique, but he was already quite satisfied.

A single drop of spiritual liquid each day, though small, accumulates over time and plays an irreplaceable role in the growth of spiritual plants.

The training of the pseudo-Minor Wind and Thunder Technique and the Major Spirit Sword Technique is also progressing steadily.

Although the pseudo-Minor Wind and Thunder Technique has little offensive power, it requires the simultaneous mobilization of both wind and thunder-attribute spiritual energy during casting, placing high demands on spiritual awareness.

Li Bai practiced repeatedly in the cave, and now he can use this spell with ease, creating howling winds and rolling thunder, making quite an impressive spectacle.

Although it has no real offensive power, it should be enough to deter monsters that steal spiritual plants.
