Farming
After returning from Building One, Chen Mobai spent the whole night at home thinking.
Ultimately, they decided to accept Che Yucheng's guidance in its entirety.
He glanced at the Pure Yang Scroll Qi Cultivation Chapter on his phone and sighed.
We can only put it on hold for now.
However, the Pure Yang Dharma Body can continue to advance while carrying Spirit Stone.
After making the decision, the subsequent cultivation went very smoothly.
Chen Mobai directly transformed the Spiritual Power Vortex of the Five Elements Technique into the spiritual energy of the Longevity Sutra, and within just two months, he had already cultivated this technique to the Qi Cultivation Level 3.
He was determined to break through to the Qi Refining Layer 4 in one go.
Unfortunately, the leave period for the Divine Wood Sect has come to an end.
The three-month wood-cutting life of the New Bud Hall has come to an end. They can choose to open their own Cave Mansion or enter the Three Halls Twelve Departments for further study, earning Spirit Stone while also building connections.
Everyone else is worried about how to get into a good department.
For example, the three most popular departments are the Alchemy Department, the Artifact Refining Department, and the Talisman Department.
As long as you can get in, even if you're just doing odd jobs, you'll be able to buy the necessary cultivation supplies much cheaper, or even at cost price.
But compared to the anxieties and uncertainties of others, Chen Mobai remained calm and composed.
Since receiving guidance from Che Yucheng, he has been determined to let go of all other distractions and focus on cultivating the Longevity Sutra, with Foundation Establishment as his top priority.
Joining the Three Halls Twelve Departments is to learn a skill and earn Spirit Stone for cultivation.
But he has no shortage of ways to make money.
As for cultivating connections, Chen Mobai believes that as long as he becomes powerful, he will become someone others need to cultivate.
Therefore, he did not submit an application to any department. After communicating with Yuan Chiye, he claimed three acres of Spirit Field in the sect's Spiritual Plant Department.
The Divine Wood Sect may not have much else, but it has plenty of Spirit Land. So as long as disciples are willing to cultivate the Spirit Field, the sect will even subsidize them with Contribution Points.
Harvesting one pound of Spirit Rice will earn you one point of Sect Contribution.
Generally speaking, one mu of Spirit Field can yield an average of 100 Spirit Rice per year, which is considered acceptable.
In the second year, the sect will continue to entrust you with the management of the Spirit Field for free, and you can even claim more acres.
Chen Mobai felt that his elective course in "Agriculture" at the Wuqi Dao Academy could shine brightly here.
"Junior Brother Chen, living a secluded life in the countryside is a good thing, but sometimes, cultivating immortality requires struggle!"
When Yuan Chiye was packing his luggage to leave New Bud Hall, he came to see him off.
Chen Mobai knew that he had always thought highly of him.
He was Direct Lineage of E Yun, who returned to the sect two months ago and, living up to everyone's expectations, successfully completed the Foundation Establishment.
After Foundation Establishment, E Yun will consolidate his realm, but about a year later, he will be sent to Cloud Dream Marsh to reopen the market destroyed by the Demon Beast and generate revenue for the sect.
This task will undoubtedly require a large number of people.
Yuan Chiye and the other Divine Wood Sect disciples who had been following E Yun for a long time would undoubtedly continue to follow him to Cloud Dream Marsh.
Chen Mobai was originally a promising younger generation they had high hopes for. After several exchanges, Yuan Chiye was very satisfied with his way of handling things. However, his temperament was too detached. At only twenty years old, he was already thinking about retiring to the countryside.
However, since he had put in some effort to cultivate him, Yuan Chiye came over again to persuade him.
"Senior Brother Yuan, I still have enough Spirit Stone for now, and it's not time to compete for them. However, I will always remember your and Senior Brother E E's kindness. If you ever need my help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."
Chen Mobai also learned that it was E Yun who helped him escape from the pursuit of the South Mountain Bandits, and he would never forget this life-saving grace.
"Everyone has their own ambitions. In that case, take care, junior brother."
Yuan Chiye said no more and gave Chen Mobai a small hoe as a parting gift.
This is a small Magic Artifact used for weeding; it seems to have been used by him.
However, Chen Mobai was still very grateful.
"Senior Brother Chen, let's keep in touch."
When he left, many of the new disciples from Nanxi came to see him off, and Liu Wenbai remained respectful and polite as ever.
"Junior Liu, you are a very good person. After I go to farm, I will leave them to you."
Of the new disciples from Nanxi, those who were able to find a way out during the three months Chen Mobai was in seclusion and disappeared have basically all left New Bud Hall.
For example, Zhuo Ming, due to her excellent Talisman Making skills, became an apprentice in a Talisman shop in the Sect Market. While applying to the Talisman Department, she was also gradually learning and improving herself.
The other new disciples of the sect, who had no other skills besides combat, also decided to follow Liu Wenbai. The latter also chose to join E Yun, and through E Yun's efforts, he joined the Spirit Beast Department.
A year later, Liu Wenbai will lead this group of disciples from South Stream Market to follow E Yun to Cloud Dream Marsh to open up a new market.
After learning this, Chen Mobai immediately relinquished his position as the leader of Nanxi this year, not only to focus on Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment, but also to offer some help to E Yun.
After the handover was completed, he left feeling relieved.
Giant Wood Ridge a vast and sparsely populated area.
With the Divine Speed Talisman attached, Chen Mobai traveled quickly for two hours before arriving at the three acres of Spirit Field that the sect had given him.
This is Spirit Field cultivated in the forest. Chen Mobai can still see more than twenty tree stumps in the Spirit Field that have not been completely cleared. The boundary is a ring of Crimson Sun Tree that have not been cut down.
After walking around and measuring the Spirit Energy Value with my phone, I discovered that the core area in the very center of the acre actually contained spiritual energy of Second Grade low-grade Spirit Vein.
"What a waste."
Generally speaking, Second Grade low-grade Spirit Vein is enough to nourish and cultivate ten acres of Spirit Field, but here the Divine Wood Sect has only casually cultivated three acres.
Moreover, it is unknown when the previous claimant left. Now, the Spirit Field is overgrown with weeds, the spiritual energy is unevenly distributed, and some snakes, insects and rodents can even be seen occupying the few points with abundant spiritual energy, baring their fangs and claws.
Chen Mobai activated the Needle Box directly, and with each Golden Needle flying, he killed all the snakes and rats. Then, at the point where the spiritual energy was most abundant, he released a Wood House Talisman.
Just as he was about to go inside, he noticed a buzzing sound of mosquitoes, which flew out of the woods in swarms and swarmed toward his wooden cabin.
"Perfect timing to test this Magic Artifact."
Chen Mobai's eyes lit up. He took out a pair of White Jade Bell strung together with Red String from his storage bag and gently shook one of them.
Ding ding dong!
The sound waves spread out, and before the mosquitoes could even get close, they all seemed to have lost their souls and fell onto the Spirit Field.
After the sound rang six times in a row, no more insects, ants, or mosquitoes emerged from the Crimson Sun Forest.
Chen Mobai nodded in satisfaction, then went inside, closed the door, and returned to Earth Origin Star.
The next day, after the Agriculture course at the Wuqi Dao Academy ended, Chen Mobai took his notebook and asked the teacher about farming.
"Oh, you mean you want to plant some small things to test it out? That's great! Come, come, let's go to the Experimental Field at the Dao Academy, and I'll explain it to you slowly."
This teacher, named Lin Wenkang, is Third Grade Spirit Planter.
Seeing that Chen Mobai, a student who usually had poor grades, had suddenly started to work hard, the teacher felt that his teaching had been effective and immediately pulled the latter out of the classroom with great enthusiasm.
