Cultivating Spiritual Fields

At this moment.

Having previously discussed the matter with Ling Pengyun and reached a conclusion, Ling Yunhong had no more reservations and spoke to Yang Changxing.

"Yang Daoyou, my Ling Clan is involved in occupying this Spirit Vein to cultivate Spirit Plant."

Seeing that Ling Yunhong agreed, Yang Changxing immediately took out the two formations he had prepared for the Snake Den Spirit Vein and introduced them to Ling Yunhong and Ling Pengyun, the two Foundation Establishment Cultivator of the Ling Clan.

"The two arrays I brought this time are Aura Concealing Array mid-grade Second Grade Middle Rank, which I purchased from the Hundred Spirits Sect. Once activated, these arrays will be virtually undetectable to Demon Beast below the Golden Core Realm unless they venture deep into the Snake Cave."

"Except for some Demon Beast that are extremely sensitive to Spiritual Qi."

"The defensive formation here is a killing formation. After all, if we encounter Demon Beast here, the Defensive Formation will be useless. We don't need to defend this place and can abandon it at will. Rather than that, it would be better to set up a killing formation."

"This killing formation is called the Geng Metal Needle Splitting Array, and is Second Rank Low Grade. Aura Concealing Array this formation is activated, it can instantly conjure hundreds of Armor Piercing Golden Needle."

"The Armor Piercing Golden Needle conjured by this formation are extremely effective against physically powerful Demon Beast."

"Ling Daoyou, Peng Yun, are you both satisfied with the two formations that my Yang Clan has set up here? If you have any requests, please let me know, and I will try my best to accommodate them."

"These two formations are already very well arranged here. Yang Daoyou, you have said too much," Ling Yunhong said.

"That's good then. I won't waste any more time. I'll set up these two formations here. I ask Ling Daoyou Peng Yun to protect me while I set up these formations, in case anything goes wrong, especially underground, so that the escaped Foundation Establishment Completion Snake Demon can return using Earth Escape Technique that allows one to escape and attack us)." Yang Changxing said with a hint of apprehension between his brows.

Upon hearing this, Ling Yunhong and Ling Pengyun frowned and quickly did as instructed, mobilizing their Divine Sense to delve deep underground to guard against the escaped Foundation Establishment Completion Snake Demon returning to launch a sneak attack.

Seeing Ling Pengyun and the other person's actions, Yang Changxing felt much more at ease. He then sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and released his Divine Sense to penetrate into the ground. Relying on the powerful Divine Sense of the Foundation Establishment Realm, he locked onto the Second Grade Middle Rank Spirit Vein underground and forcibly established a connection with it.

Having established a connection with the Spirit Vein, Yang Changxing then set up the Aura Concealing Array and the Geng Metal Splitting Needle Grand Array here.

With the support of the Spirit Vein containing immense Spiritual Qi deep underground in this Snake Cave, the Aura Concealing Array was quickly activated. The Spiritual Qi and aura emanating from the Second Grade Middle Rank Spirit Vein deep underground were all locked within this Snake Cave, preventing any leakage.

Meanwhile, the Geng Jin Rift Array, a killing array, was continuously accumulating spiritual Spiritual Qi, waiting for the array to be activated.

After the formation was set up, Yang Changxing stood up from the ground and used his Object Manipulation Technique to hand over the array plates of the Aura Concealing Array and the Geng Metal Splitting Needle Grand Array that were floating in front of him to Ling Yunhong, and said.

"Ling Daoyou, these two formations are now set up, and these two Control Array Disk are now entrusted to you."

Ling Yunhong reached out and took it, but instead of putting it away, he handed it to Ling Pengyun who was standing next to him.

"Ling Daoyou, won't you be stationed here from now on?" Yang Changxing asked, his expression hardening upon seeing this.

Ling Yunhong shook his head and spoke.

"This place will be guarded by Peng Yun in the future. I need to refine pills for the Lineage, and I often need to take Pill Refining materials from the Lineage and send the refined pills back to the Lineage. If I guard this place, it will be very inconvenient."

Upon hearing this, Yang Changxing fixed his gaze on Ling Pengyun, who had only recently entered the Foundation Establishment, and frowned slightly.

Ling Pengyun had a very close relationship with Yang Siling Yang Clan, a descendant of Golden Core cultivator from the Yang family. Their relationship was even better than that between ordinary Yang Clan disciples and Yang Siling.

Although Aura Concealing Array and two large arrays, namely the Geng Jin Crack Needle, have been set up here, this place is still in the territory of the Serpent Dragon Lake, where Demon Beast roam freely, so there is still a certain risk in guarding this place.

Moreover, Ling Pengyun is only at the initial Foundation Establishment, and his strength is weak. He would probably be difficult to defeat even if Demon Beast of the same level.

"Si Ling was sent to the Hundred Spirits Sect by her Lineage when she was thirteen years old. She didn't have a deep affection for her Lineage. If it weren't for the fact that her Lineage never stopped paying her salary when she was in the Si Ling Qi Training Stage, the relationship between her Lineage and her Si Ling would probably be very unfamiliar."

"If Peng Yun were to perish here while entrusted by the Yang Clan to guard this place, it would likely cause resentment in Si Ling's heart. In that case, the relationship between the Lineage and Si Ling would definitely become strained."

"Under these circumstances, it will be difficult for the Lineage to Si Ling to do things, even if there are conflicts of interest," Yang Changxing sighed helplessly.

Yang Siling, who married a descendant of Golden Core cultivator, was extremely important to the Yang Clan. If the Yang Clan wanted to continue to grow stronger, it would need to rely on Yang Siling's support.

It was the Ling Clan's decision that Ling Pengyun would be stationed at the Second Rank Spirit Vein of the Snake Cave in the future. Even if Yang Changxing was willing, as an outsider, he could hardly change it.

Therefore, in order to ensure Ling Pengyun's safety, Yang Changxing had no choice but to focus on strengthening Ling Pengyun's abilities.

"The killing array set up here is the only second-tier killing array that the Lineage has left. The prices of high-tier killing arrays on the market are too high, so the path of array formation is not viable."

"There aren't many Second Rank Spirit Talisman Lineage. Giving them to Ling Pengyun for self-defense would be too costly and not worth it."

"..."

After thinking it over, Yang realized that during the battle just now, Ling Pengyun, who had just entered the Foundation Establishment, had only taken out a second-tier magic shield and had not taken out a single second-tier attack magic Law Artifact. His expression brightened slightly.

"Peng Yun, you don't have a second-tier attack Law Artifact?"

"My grandson does not indeed possess a second-tier attack Law Artifact." Ling Pengyun was examining the array plates of the Qi Aura Concealing Array and the Geng Metal Splitting Needle Grand Array, was puzzled by Yang Changxing's inexplicable question, but still answered.

Upon hearing this, Yang Changxing recalled that the Ling Clan had spent a large amount of Spirit Stone to purchase Foundation Establishment Pill and had also purchased many shops in various markets in recent years. He immediately understood why Ling Pengyun, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, was not equipped with a second-tier attack Law Artifact.

He had an idea, and after considering it for a moment, he proposed it to Ling Pengyun.

"Peng Yun, although this place is remote and protected by Aura Concealing Array and a killing array, it is still a place where Demon Beast roam freely. If you do not have a second-tier attack magic Law Artifact, it will be difficult for you to exert your full strength. If you are stationed here in the future and are discovered by Demon Beast, you may be held back by your lack of attack Law Artifact."

"Several years ago, when my Yang Clan destroyed the Red Leaf Ridge Ye Family, we seized several Second Grade Magic Tool. Several of them are gathering dust in the Clan Repository and are useless. After I finish dealing with this matter, I will return to the Yang Clan and bring you an offensive Law Artifact to use, so as to improve your strength."

"However, you will not be able to use this Law Artifact given to you by the Yang Clan for free. You will need to purchase it with Spirit Stone. Of course, you do not need to rush to pay the Spirit Stone. You can pay it off within ten years."

Ling Pengyun was extremely surprised to hear that Yang Changxing was offering him such preferential treatment by selling him a second-tier attack Law Artifact.

However, what Yang Changxing said does make sense.

Without the aid of a second-tier attack Law Artifact, Foundation Establishment Cultivator would indeed find it difficult to fully unleash their full power.

However, he did not immediately agree to such a good thing, but instead looked at Ling Yunhong beside him.

Yang Changxing represents the Yang Clan, not an individual. If it were an individual, Ling Pengyun could naturally agree directly. However, since it involves another major Lineage, he naturally needs to consult his Lineage's opinion.

Seeing Ling Pengyun's expression, Ling Yunhong nodded slightly.

"Then thank you very much, Uncle." Ling Pengyun said to Yang Changxing upon seeing this.

"It's alright," Yang Changxing waved his hand and then said.

"Let's leave the matter of Law Artifact aside for now. Now that I have set up both formations, it is time for you two Spirit Planter, Ling Daoyou Peng Yun, to put in the effort and cultivate a Spirit Field in this vast land."

"The grade of the Spirit Field developed here should not be too low or too high. It is best to maintain them at the middle to upper grade of the first rank. Fewer Spirit Field of the second rank or above can be developed."

"After all, this place is located in the territory of Serpent Dragon Lake, and there is a risk that it will be discovered by Demon Beast and snatched back. Planting first-grade mid-to-high-grade Spirit Plant with shorter maturation time is safer."

Yang Changxing was also aware that Ling Yunhong and Ling Pengyun were Spirit Planter.

The former is a renowned second-tier Spirit Planter, while the latter is a genius Spirit Planter has become extremely famous in recent years within the three states of the Hundred Spirits Sect, having improved a new type of Fine Grade Spirit Rice.

"Okay." Ling Yunhong and Ling Pengyun replied in succession and then took action.

The two first used their Divine Sense to investigate how much Spiritual Qi was left in the local Spirit Vein after deducting the daily supply needed to activate the two second-tier formations.

After exploring the remaining Spiritual Qi of the local Spirit Vein, Ling Yunhong and Ling Pengyun discussed that, apart from leaving some Spiritual Qi to support Ling Pengyun, who would be stationed in the Snake Cave, and the Immortal Spirit Crane King's daily cultivation, all the remaining Spiritual Qi would be used to develop Spirit Field.

The remaining Spiritual Qi can be used to cultivate 15 mu of First Rank Middle Grade Spirit Field, 15 mu of First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Field, and 5 mu of Second Rank Low Grade Spirit Field, for a total of 35 mu of Spirit Field.

With such a vast number of Spirit Field, the space within the Rock Scale Snake Den is naturally insufficient.

Under these circumstances, Ling Pengyun and Ling Yunhong called on Yang Changxing, and together they used Law Technique or Law Artifact to bombard the cliff walls on both sides of the Snake Cave, expanding the Snake Cave.

This Snake Cave was located inside a cliff that stretched for several miles.

Expanding the space by several dozen acres would not be a problem.

However, to avoid the possibility of a collapse in the expanded Snake Cave.

Ling Pengyun, Ling Yunhong, and Yang Changxing, three Foundation Establishment Cultivator, spent a considerable amount of time using the "Earth Solidification Art" to reinforce the four sides of the expanded Snake Cave.

After finishing this task, Ling Pengyun and Ling Yunhong, the two Spirit Planter, each took out a Spirit Hoe and plowed a 35-acre plot of wasteland in the large area that had just been cleared in the Snake Cave.

Subsequently, relying on the connection between the Aura Concealing Array, the Geng Metal Splitting Needle Grand Array plate, and the Second Grade Middle Rank Spirit Vein underground, the two used the Spirit Plant Secret Method "Spirit Nurturing Art Spirit Nurturing Art" to draw the Spiritual Qi within the Spirit Vein and inject it into the thirty-five acres of barren land.

They borrowed Spiritual Qi to refine the ordinary soil in those barren fields, transforming it into spiritual energy.

Because there were so many wastelands, even with Ling Yunhong, a second-level Spirit Planter, it took three full days to transform all thirty-five acres of wasteland into Spirit Field.

However, these cultivated Spirit Field are only the lowest grade, First Rank Low Grade Spirit Field. Ling Yunhong and Ling Pengyun still need to rely on the continuous use of the Spirit Plant Secret Method "Spirit Nurturing Art" to inject into these Spirit Field, tempering the Spirit Soil and making the Spiritual Qi contained in the Spirit Soil stronger.

This leads to a transformation and an upgrade in rank.

This step is extremely time-consuming.

It took nearly another month to cultivate the fifteen mu of First Rank Middle Grade Spirit Field, fifteen mu of First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Field, and five mu of Second Rank Low Grade Spirit Field.

During this time, Yang Changxing was not idle. He left the Snake Cave for quite some time and returned to the Yang Clan Mountain to retrieve the seeds for refining the three main ingredients of the pills: Yellow Sprout Pill, Azure Spirit Grass, and Spirit Gathering Pill, as well as the Second Rank Low Grade Law Artifact that he had promised to give to Ling Pengyun.

With the Spirit Field developed, the various grades of Spirit Plant seeds that Yang Changxing had obtained from the Yang Clan were planted in the soil by Ling Yunhong and Ling Pengyun.

After the seeds were planted, the two watered the newly planted Spirit Plant seeds in the thirty-five acres of Spirit Field with Spirit Rain to nourish them and help them germinate faster.
