My path to immortality was smooth sailing.
Chapter 9: Practicing Spells and Inheriting the Family's Spiritual Fields
Wei Qingmu led the two into his small study.
"Wei Jing, you have already reached the second level of Qi Refining. Logically speaking, your current cultivation level is already high enough to take on some family tasks, such as cultivating spiritual flowers and herbs, and using the Spring Rain Technique to irrigate spiritual fields."
"Of course, you are still too young. If you don't want to, no one will force you."
With the Qi-Nourishing Pills provided by his family every month, Wei Jing doesn't need to worry too much about cultivation resources for the time being.
But Wei Jing heard it differently; his eyes lit up.
"Yes, I'm willing to take on the mission." One bottle of Qi-Nourishing Pills a month is simply not enough for him. Even with his uncle's occasional assistance, his uncle himself needs cultivation resources and cannot provide too much.
Especially after breaking through to the second level of Qi Refining, the effect of one Qi Nourishing Pill was only enough to sustain his cultivation for four days.
He used up all four Qi-nourishing pills in one bottle in just half a month.
Without the Qi-Nourishing Pill, his cultivation speed would be the normal cultivation speed of someone with three spiritual roots, which would be much slower than his current cultivation speed.
"Alright, since that's the case, then I'll teach you the three basic spells of our Wei family's spiritual plant masters: Spring Rain Spell, Nourishing Spell, and Gathering Spirit and Guiding Qi Spell." Wei Qingmu didn't hold back and decided to teach all three spells in one go.
"Tiezhu, you should learn too."
"Me? Okay, okay." Wei Tiezhu nodded hurriedly, afraid that the clan elder would change his mind.
Wei Qingmu took two handwritten copies from the bookshelf and handed them to the two men.
Wei Jing looked at them and realized that both were handwritten copies of "The Art of Spring Rain".
"Today we'll start by learning the 'Spring Rain Technique.'" Wei Qingmu sat at the desk in the study, while Wei Jing and Wei Tiezhu found two small stools to sit on, listening attentively as the clan elder explained the principles and mysteries of this basic spell.
The so-called Spring Rain Technique involves using magic to gather the surrounding water mist and vapor, then combining it with one's own spiritual power to make a light rain fall in a small area.
This area may only cover a small courtyard, or the area of one or two acres of spiritual land.
However, this is enough for the plant spirit master.
The principle behind the Spring Rain spell is very simple, and the process of casting the spell using spiritual energy is also very simple.
Wei Qingmu spoke for only half an hour, and even Wei Tiezhu understood it.
"Do you understand everything?" Wei Qingmu asked.
The two nodded simultaneously, and Wei Qingmu said, "Alright, you two practice first!"
After saying that, Wei Qingmu got up and poured himself a bowl of rice wine. This was not ordinary rice wine, but brewed with spirit rice.
He grows the spiritual rice himself, and he also brews the spiritual wine himself.
Wei Jing glanced at Wei Qingmu, then closed his eyes and focused his mind.
Seeing that Wei Jing was in the zone, Wei Tiezhu also closed his eyes, just like him.
A quarter of an hour later, Wei Jing had already recalled and rehearsed the path and flow of spiritual energy for casting the spell many times in his mind. Only after confirming that everything was correct did he slowly activate his own spiritual power.
He slowly formed hand seals, his movements simple, channeling his spiritual energy into his palms and guiding it along a predetermined path.
Wei Jing's hands emitted a faint green light, and the next moment, water vapor gathered around his palms and suddenly condensed into water droplets above his head.
"Tick-tock! Tick-tock!"
Water droplets fell and dripped onto Wei Jing's face, feeling icy cold, and soon dampened his hair and clothes.
That's right, the Spring Rain spell only covered Wei Jing's entire body, only drenching him.
"Not bad, you succeeded on the first try." Wei Qingmu's eyes lit up, and he put down his wine glass.
Wei Tiezhu looked at Wei Jing with some discouragement.
Training with Brother Jing is really discouraging.
Although Wei Jing managed to withdraw his spiritual power in time, it was too late; he was already soaked to the bone.
Wei Qingmu cast a spell, and Wei Jing felt refreshed after a short while.
"Elder, what kind of magic is this? It's amazing!" Wei Jing exclaimed.
"This is a first-tier cleansing spell, suitable for an old man like me who looks old and worn out," Wei Qingmu said, shaking his head.
Next, Wei Jing learned two other minor spells, the Nourishing Spell and the Spirit Gathering and Qi Induction Spell, both of which he successfully cast on his first try.
Wei Qingmu was greatly surprised. Could it be that this kid also has a talent for cultivating magic?
After a moment of contemplation, Wei Qingmu said, "These three are all basic spells. I will teach you the first-tier Cleansing Spell and see if you can successfully cast it on your first try."
Two hours later, Wei Qingmu was convinced.
Wei Jingzhen learned this rather difficult first-order spell in just two hours. Wei Qingmu remembered that it took him seven or eight days to fully cast the spell when he first learned it.
It's true what they say, comparisons are the thief of joy.
Wei Jing pursed his lips, knowing it was probably due to his destiny again.
[Destiny: Turning insurmountable barriers into smooth paths, with no bottlenecks in spiritual cultivation.]
This destiny not only allows him to ignore the bottlenecks in his cultivation techniques, but also in his magical arts.
He only needed to follow the trajectory of spiritual energy recorded in the book to successfully cast the spell, but the effect of the first spell was rather average.
Uh, the results were very poor.
However, this is still quite astonishing, meaning that Wei Jing can learn any spell he cultivates in a relatively short period of time.
As for the stages of minor mastery, major mastery, and perfection in magic, those require practice and comprehension after birth.
This process is necessary; no one can cheat this.
"Xiao Jing, you should practice these spells more! At your current level, you're not good enough to take on the family's mission to cultivate spiritual plants."
"Okay, I'll practice harder."
……
"Spring Rain Technique!"
Wei Jing murmured softly, his palm emitting a green light as he cast a spell towards the sky above the fertile field.
The emerald light merged into the sky above the spirit field, and the next moment, clouds and rain gathered, and a light rain began to fall from nowhere above that one acre of spirit field.
This spring rain contains wisps of the spirit of heaven and earth.
"Phew! Being a spirit plant master isn't as easy as I imagined!" Wei Jing took a deep breath.
After more than two months of practice, Wei Jing has mastered the Spring Rain Technique, the Nourishing Technique, and the Spirit Gathering and Qi Guiding Technique to a minor level, and has also successfully taken over the family's three acres of spiritual fields.
The family's contribution to the three mu of spiritual fields will be calculated based on the amount of spiritual rice produced during the autumn harvest.
Alternatively, one can forgo family contributions, handing over 30% of the produced spirit rice to the family, and keeping the remaining spirit rice at their own discretion.
It took Wei Jing half an hour to continuously cast spells and irrigate the one acre of spiritual field.
After using the Spring Rain Technique, Wei Jing then used the Spirit Gathering and Qi Attraction Technique to gather and attract the surrounding spiritual energy. The spiritual rice in the spiritual field seemed to come alive, stretching out its body and greedily absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
They absorb not only the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but also Wei Jing's own spiritual power.
This is equivalent to fertilizing this acre of spiritual land, nourishing it to grow vigorously.
The "Nourishing Power" spell helps seeds germinate and moistens them, but it's not needed here for the time being.
After processing the three acres of spiritual fields according to this method, most of the day had passed, and the spiritual energy in Wei Jing's dantian had been completely drained.
He simply stayed on the edge of the field to recover his spiritual power until the moon rose high in the sky before he finally exhaled a breath of stale air and hurried home.
Sometimes they also have to catch pests and clear weeds, which makes for a busy and fulfilling day for Lingnong.
