Heaven-Defying Learning Method

"Haha, wife, I misspoke. I shouldn't have said that. Anyway, I'll definitely be able to keep that brat in line and make him a powerful cultivator!"

Lu Wanyuan hurriedly apologized. Only then did he remember that Baili Qiuyue definitely had no idea what he meant by "Monkey King." Fortunately, she did not press the matter further.

"By the way, why haven't I seen Lu Wanshan and the others? How are they doing now?"

Lu Wanyuan immediately rose to his feet and hurriedly changed the subject.

"I heard they're all doing well. Every time they come back, they talk with me for a while. Their eyes shine every time they do—something that never happened back on Green Bamboo Peak!"

"Wanhe and Wanting are no longer attendants. They're apprentices now. And Wanshan can already assist Master Ouyang. I heard he's made great progress."

Baili Qiuyue explained.

Lu Wanyuan was overjoyed at this. It seemed his plan had been right after all. If they could keep persevering, they would surely achieve something in their studies.

"Oh, there's one more thing. The crops we planted in the backyard seem to be ripe. The entire backyard is a sea of gold, and under the sunlight, it looks even more dazzling!"

"It's fine. The Yellow Bud Wheat Spirit Grass is fully mature now. I'll go harvest it right away. I think I'll leave some behind. Since we have it ourselves, we can try making it ourselves. I've also studied the Spirit Talisman Legacy these past days. The first step is making spirit talisman paper, and then comes talisman making!"

"Husband, I don't think that's necessary. If you really want to try making spirit talismans, wouldn't it be faster to buy finished blank spirit talisman paper from the Market?"

"Wife, you're right. If I only want to learn how to make spirit talismans, that would indeed be a very good approach!"

"But for a family, it's best to have everything in the entire industry chain under our own control, from beginning to end. That way, no matter how the outside world changes, it won't affect the family's foothold in the spirit talisman industry, and we won't be at anyone else's mercy!"

"Still, the Lu Family has only just begun. There's no need to spread our layout so wide yet. If the battle line is too long, we'll overextend ourselves. We should first secure the part we can control."

"So I'll take your advice and directly buy blank talisman paper from the market to draw spirit talismans. Once the family's circumstances allow it, we must complete the entire spirit talisman industry chain and form a closed loop!"

Hearing this, Baili Qiuyue immediately nodded in deep agreement.

"Alright, let's head to the backyard first. Just stand by and watch me harvest!"

Lu Wanyuan supported the heavily pregnant Baili Qiuyue with one hand as the two headed toward the backyard.

"See? I told you!"

The backyard was awash in golden light. The gold reflected off the walls, making the entire building gleam in magnificent splendor. It was truly a beautiful sight!

"It really is beautiful. But we can't just admire it—we still need to eat. We'll have to steel our hearts and harvest these five mu of Yellow Bud Wheat Spirit Grass!"

Above the Spirit Field, he saw many Entries.

[Name]: Yellow Bud Wheat Spirit Grass
[Entry]: Strand of Spiritual Qi x10 (Maturity 100%, Harvestable)

[Name]: Yellow Bud Wheat Spirit Grass
[Entry]: Fireball Spell (Maturity 100%, Harvestable)

[Name]: Yellow Bud Wheat Spirit Grass
[Entry]: Great Accomplishment Spirit Rain Technique x5 (Maturity 100%, Harvestable)

[Name]: Yellow Bud Wheat Spirit Grass
[Entry]: First Rank Beast Taming Art (Maturity 100%, Harvestable)

Seeing so many Entries, Lu Wanyuan was ecstatic. He had originally thought there would be no Entries here, since he had not found any last time. Who would have thought that Entries had appeared again? How could he not be happy? Without drawing any attention, he quietly collected them all.

He then walked to the Spirit Field, took the Ice Profound Iron Scythe from his Storage Bag, and infused it with spiritual power.

Before long, the scythe extended to two zhang in length, like an enormous guillotine blade, facing the Yellow Bud Wheat Spirit Grass in the field.

Without further hesitation, he immediately controlled the spirit scythe and began harvesting.

Like a cutting machine, it sent all the waist-high Yellow Bud Wheat Spirit Grass in the field tumbling to the ground.

In just half a cup of tea, he had harvested an entire mu of Spirit Field, and the spiritual power in his Dantian was still abundant.

Feeling this change, he rejoiced inwardly. Fortunately, he cultivated the Minor Five Elements Art; that was why he had so much spiritual power.

Last time, after harvesting for half a cup of tea, he had needed to stop and cultivate to recover his spiritual power.

But now, he did not need to. Even after harvesting, he still had more than half his spiritual power left.

He immediately continued harvesting the remaining Yellow Bud Wheat Spirit Grass.

Before long, after spending an hour, he had harvested all five mu of Yellow Bud Wheat Spirit Grass.

He had not expected that, in such a short time, he would even finish picking all the golden leaves from the Yellow Bud Wheat Grass.

This time, there were clearly several more jin than last time—forty jin in all. Previously, five mu had only yielded around thirty jin.

It seemed the Yellow Bud Wheat Spirit Grass needed to grow naturally for a higher yield. The last two times, he had used the "Hasten" Entry, and the yield had been much lower.

He did not care much about the yield now. What he cared about were the Entries. The Entries harvested this time were quite useful, especially the "Strand of Spiritual Qi." This time, he had collected ten strands of Spiritual Qi. With those ten strands, advancing to the Qi Refining fourth layer would definitely not be a problem.

That was what truly made him happy. Once his Cultivation Realm improved, his strength would rise as well, and he would be able to do many more things.

After finishing the harvest, he immediately used one Great Accomplishment Spirit Rain Technique Entry.

The spiritual qi for several li around rushed over like a tornado, gathering rapidly as the sky darkened.

At once, spirit rain began to fall from the sky in a fine drizzle. It gradually grew heavier—at first, it descended in thin threads, then slowly thickened, until it finally poured down like a torrential downpour.

Rain rich with spiritual qi fell, nourishing the entire Spirit Field. Before long, a thick layer of spirit rain flooded the field, while wisps of white spiritual qi rose into the air.

After it continued for an hour, the spirit rain had nearly reached his knees.

Damn, so this was the Spirit Rain Technique at Great Perfection Realm. It really felt different. Compared to the Spirit Rain Technique at the minor accomplishment realm, not only did it last longer and produce more spirit rain, it was also much faster to cast.

As he cast it, Lu Wanyuan gradually gained a trace of insight into the Spirit Rain Technique at Great Perfection Realm. The reason he had been unable to sustain it for so long before was simply that he had not had enough spiritual power.

But after cultivating the Minor Five Elements Art, his spiritual power had increased, and he had overcome that weakness.

Therefore, if he could successfully comprehend the Spirit Rain Technique at Great Perfection Realm, he would be able to cast it freely. He would no longer need an Entry to use it.

After using a single Spirit Rain Technique at Great Perfection Realm Entry, he gained even more understanding and experience of it. He likely would not need to use three more such Entries before he could completely master the Spirit Rain Technique at Great Perfection Realm.

In other words, if he had the corresponding spell Entries, he only needed to use them repeatedly. That was equivalent to casting those spells himself, which was the same as practicing them once. Naturally, he could gain insight and understanding of the spells. Eventually, he would be able to cast spells normally without relying on Entries.

This method truly was excellent. Those who could cast spells normally had masters to teach and guide them. For a Rogue Cultivator like him, having such a method was equivalent to having a master—and it was even better than having one. After all, he did not need to watch a master's expression to learn spell arts. It was truly heaven-defying!
