Qi Zixiao's Major Discovery!!

"The possibility is indeed very high, but it takes too much time."

After a brief period of excitement, Qi Zixiao gradually calmed down and began to think deeply.

"Even if I set up Spirit Gathering Array to prevent the spiritual energy from leaking out, the first batch of spiritual herbs might increase the spiritual energy a bit, and then I would have to plant the second batch right away."

"During this process, the Spirit Gathering Array must be maintained without interruption..."

"Perhaps if we plant hundreds or thousands of crops, the spiritual energy in this courtyard will be comparable to that of a sacred site?"

"..."

Okay!

She suddenly felt a little discouraged.

If we calculate it this way, although it can gradually improve the environment and increase spiritual energy, the speed is... really too slow.

"Then, is there any way to speed up this process?"

"For example... fertilizing?"

In the Cultivation World, there is also the concept of fertilization when planting spiritual herbs.

However, it is not made from various 'compound fertilizers' or 'urea' from Earth, but from 'fertilizers' specially made by human alchemists and spirit herb cultivators.

Qi Zixiao didn't know how those fertilizers were made, but even if she did, it wouldn't matter, because Earth certainly couldn't obtain the relevant materials at present.

"But... can I 'fertilize' it in my own way?"

"Since these are currently just 'pseudo-elixirs' and haven't truly succeeded yet, what they actually need most in the process of transforming into true elixirs is spiritual energy, right?"

"In that case..."

Qi Zixiao suddenly had an idea.

Since the problem is the lack of spiritual energy, why not just make the spiritual energy more abundant?

Next time, aside from the Pseudo Spiritual Stone needed to stabilize my current realm, I'll use them all to set up Spirit Gathering Array!

Small Spirit Gathering Array?

If the effect is not good enough, then we'll use a medium-sized Spirit Gathering Array with ninety-nine Pseudo Spiritual Stone as its Array Foundation!

We can even turn the Pseudo Spiritual Stone into powder and sprinkle them directly onto the soil.

Although the Pseudo Spiritual Stone powder doesn't contain much spiritual energy, it would actually be better absorbed if it came into direct contact with the root system, right?

even...

"Cough!"

Qi Zixiao suddenly blushed.

Because she thought of another way to fertilize, which is... Although Lin Fan's account is a small account, he is now Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator with True Essence flowing in his body.

As for cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, their bodies have already begun to transform towards 'immortality'. Although it has only just begun, it has already started nonetheless.

During this process, even Lin Fan's excrement contains some 'spiritual energy'.

Of course, this spiritual energy is very filthy, and no cultivator would be so foolish as to use that little bit of spiritual energy for cultivation.

The problem is, we're not giving this spiritual energy to anyone for cultivation, but rather using it to fertilize the spiritual herbs!

Using excrement to fertilize plants seems to be a practice that has existed since ancient times, right? And it's even 'biological fertilizer,' which is much better than those chemical fertilizers.

That is indeed a solution, but it feels a bit... well...

Etc!!!

Suddenly, Qi Zixiao froze, then realized what was happening, and immediately grabbed Lin Fan's thigh hard.

"So, this guy!!!"

"Could this be the potted plant in my room?!...

(ΩДΩ)!!!

"No wonder he never dared to answer my questions, no matter how many times I pressed him! So that's why!"

I understand now, I understand everything!

That guy, actually... when he first time-traveled...

"Hateful!"

"I, the Saintess, will personally deal with you sooner or later!"

"Hiss..."

In the end, she couldn't help but stop. The main problem was that she was the one in pain now; the harder she tried, the more it hurt!

Therefore, she could only make a note of this matter and wait for the opportunity to meet again in the future... Hmph, she could settle the score all at once then!

What an annoying guy!!!

In the holy land.

"Achoo!!!"

For some reason, Lin Fan sneezed, which he found rather strange.

"This is really strange. Qi Zixiao's body is already at the Void Refinement stage, how can someone of that Large Account still sneeze?"

"Could someone be thinking about her?"

"... Well, don't worry, I finally have some leads."

Both charging methods have their advantages and disadvantages.

The 'wireless charging' utilizes the 'superconductivity' of Natural Gold, combined with Spirit Gathering Array, to frantically absorb external spiritual energy to replenish itself.

Its advantage is that it can absorb spiritual energy from the outside world like crazy!

The downside is that you need to convert spiritual energy into True Essence, which takes some time.

The Power Bank transfer uses only True Essence, which can be used directly and can even instantly restore your mana to full, but you need to charge the Power Bank beforehand.

During combat, the number of times Power Bank can be used depends on how much power Power Bank beforehand.

The advantages and disadvantages, and the differences, are quite obvious.

As for the carriers of both, they are definitely Natural Gold. As for the form, Lin Fan has thought about it for a long time and has come up with an idea.

First, you must not attract attention!

What is the least noticeable thing?

For someone of Qi Zixiao's status, who exists in purple, many things are actually superfluous, but... a few small accessories are always fine, right?

For example, the 'output port' of Power Bank could be made into the shape of an earring.

Our dignified Saintess, with unparalleled beauty, wearing two small earrings is perfectly reasonable, isn't it?

Even if someone guesses that these earrings are definitely not ordinary objects, they generally wouldn't think of them as Power Bank.

As for Wireless Charger...

Let's get a hairpin then!

Qi Zixiao's hair was still beautiful; her long black hair cascaded down to her waist, and even when it was loose, it was still very attractive.

Or you can simply tie your hair back with a rope and it will still look radiant. You can also use some pretty hairpins to style your hair, which will only make you look even more beautiful, right?

As for making it into clothing...

You're insane!

Although Natural Gold may emit various colors of light, it is essentially a transparent metal, okay?

Transparent metal, used to make clothes?!

Absolutely not!

Unless it's just for my own enjoyment, emmmmm...

"Then it's settled. Go back and find some patterns for hairpins, earrings, and the like, design two styles you like, and then ask Elder Wu Lian for help."

"Seriously, isn't this a bit cruel? We take someone's Natural Gold and then expect them to help us refine it..."

"But if he can't refine it, who will? Wait, did his method of fusing Strange Fire succeed?"

His heart skipped a beat.

"It shouldn't fail, right? If it does fail, he should come looking for me, right?"

"Well, let's ask Dan Chengzi to help us refine a batch of 'cell phones' first. This time, we'll have to make some money from them."

"I have a feeling that it will cost a lot of Spirit Stone later..."

Artifact Refining Pavilion.

Five Strange Fire were placed in front of Wu Lian.

These Strange Fire varied in color and shape, some were dazzling golden light, and some even transformed into dragon shapes, charging left and right, which was quite astonishing!

The other clump of green was quite beautiful, even giving off a sense of life.

There was also a dark, malevolent mass that inspired terror at first glance...

"It took a lot of effort, but I finally managed to obtain five different kinds of Strange Fire from my fellow disciples and old friends. This time, I must succeed!"

Thinking of all that he had sacrificed, Wu Lian felt a pang of heartache!

First, he exchanged Natural Gold for the method of fusing Strange Fire. Then, in order to exchange for these five Strange Fire, he also suffered a huge loss!

"These guys are useless with the Strange Fire all the time, but as soon as they hear I want it, they all ask for exorbitant prices!"

"Damn it, once I successfully fuse the materials and break through my current weapon-refining bottleneck, I'll see you all come begging to my door. If I don't rip you off a few times, I'm not a Wu Lian expert!!!"

Let's begin!

After a string of curses, Wu Lian began to attempt to fuse Strange Fire according to the "records" in the "Method of Fusion of Strange Fire".

Fortunately, Lin Fan wasn't that bad. The method he provided for fusing Strange Fire didn't involve fusing the Strange Fire with one's own body. Instead, it utilized the characteristics and theories of the five elements' mutual restraint and endless cycle to combine two or more Strange Fire into one, making the fused Strange Fire stronger and stronger.

According to this theory, the more Strange Fire is fused with, the stronger that Strange Fire becomes!

That's the logic, and the theory makes perfect sense...

However, in essence, it was still Lin Fan's "armchair strategist".

On the other hand, Wu Lian saw that the theory was correct, the logic was sound, and it was recorded in the General Principles of Daoist Arts Under Heaven.

That's definitely the case; naturally, they'll start preparing for the fusion of the Strange Fire.

"The first step is to acknowledge the Lord!"

His Wu Lian aura surged, and relying on his superior cultivation, he forcibly recognized the five Strange Fire as his master. After recognizing them as his master...

These Strange Fire all seemed much gentler.

Then, Wu Lian looked left and right.

"Wood generates fire."

"This Divine Wood Flame is a wood-attribute Strange Fire, so it should have a kind of 'compatibility' with all Strange Fire. Let's use it as the main body!"

"So, the first fusion... Golden Dragon Divine Fire!"

Buzz!

He grasped a ball of Strange Fire in each hand, and then, according to his own understanding of the method of fusing Strange Fire, he pressed them together suddenly.

"Melt it for me!!!"

The two Strange Fire were initially distinct, but as they approached, they began to repel each other. However, under Wu Lian's forceful control, they gradually showed signs of becoming intertwined.

but...

Boom!!!!!

Suddenly, the Strange Fire exploded!

The terrifying shockwave instantly destroyed many of the formations set up by the Wu Lian, and even half of the Artifact Refining Pavilion was blown into ruins. The terrifying shockwave shot straight into the sky, like a mushroom cloud!

Countless disciples were blasted away, covered in dust and utterly bewildered.

"What happened?!"

"Wasn't I refining weapons? Why am I here?!"

"Did I... explode?!"

"Junior brother, if you drank less alcohol and ate more food, you wouldn't have this illusion. Do you think you could have such power just by exploding the furnace?!"

"We've lost half of our Artifact Refining Pavilion!!!"

The disciple was utterly bewildered.

Wu Lian was also somewhat bewildered.

How did it explode?!

But the next moment, he looked around and found that almost half of the Artifact Refining Pavilion was gone, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Hahahaha!!!!"
