Longevity Tree Fruit

The second level of the Spirit Controlling Technique, Divine Splitting Spirit Manifesting Thought, requires splitting one's own Spiritual Sense.

Chen Mobai had searched for related information online. According to cultivators, this kind of pain was beyond the endurance of ordinary people.

It's like being hit hard on the head with a stick. Even with Incense of Thought, it takes a month to recover from the weakness caused by the split Spiritual Sense.

Although he was very confident in himself, Chen Mobai still had some worries about the unknown and intense pain.

Therefore, before formally splitting his Spiritual Sense, he felt it would be better to conduct a small experiment first.

It must be very painful to split the Spiritual Sense formed Green Wutong Sapling in two. Picking a flower or fruit from it first should be less painful, right?

As Chen Mobai was thinking this, his Spiritual Sense stirred slightly, and he felt as if he had been pricked by a fine needle on his forehead, the pain almost imperceptible.

Then the flower and fruit fell from the top of the Green Wutong Sapling and planted on the edge of the Purple Mansion Sea of Consciousness of Consciousness.

The Spirit Controlling Technique was activated, and the nourishing effects of the Incense of Thought began to take effect.

Chen Mobai saw the flower and fruit of the Green Wutong Sapling turn into seeds in the shortest time, and then begin to take root and sprout, growing one, two or three tender buds.

This means that the Spiritual Sense he separated from him has grown to the level of the Qi Cultivation Level 8 in a short period of time.

However, the original main Spiritual Sense was almost undamaged, only weakened by about 10% or 20%.

But it is still at the Foundation Establishment stage.

Compared to what those who practiced the Spirit Controlling Technique before said—that they suffered severe damage to their vital energy, blurred consciousness, and unbearable pain—he felt as if he had just finished exercising and worked up a sweat.

Although he didn't know the underlying principle, Chen Mobai stopped splitting his Spiritual Sense and continued to observe the sapling that had grown from the original Green Wutong Sapling and fruit.

Two weeks later.

Chen Mobai sat upright in the wooden house, facing the Formless Puppet.

The feeling of looking into each other's eyes and seeing oneself is very novel.

The second level of the Spirit Controlling Technique, "Splitting Spirit Manifesting Thought," has been mastered.

Although he didn't know the reason, Chen Mobai didn't delve into it. Anyway, the result was good, and there was no period of weakness.

He guessed that it might be the flowers and fruits of the Jade Wutong, which are spiritual medicines that enhance Spiritual Sense. For example, the Fire Clearing Pill is made with these as the main ingredient.

So, by sheer chance, he used the Splitting Spirit Manifesting Thought the Green Wutong Sapling, flowers, and fruits to create a secret to cultivating the Spirit Controlling Technique.

Next, all you need to do is nurture this newly grown sapling again until it blossoms and bears fruit, then you can cultivate the third level of the Spirit Controlling Technique, "Melding Spirit Returning to One".

Since he was already at the Foundation Establishment level and his main Spiritual Sense was not weakened, he only needed to focus his energy on improving the Spiritual Sense of the new sapling, which would probably take at most two or three years to complete.

If one were to take elixirs, the time could be reduced by half.

Just as he was preparing to try out the tactic of attacking from Formless Puppet and his own body again, a Telepathic Message flew to the door.

It was his apprentice Zhuo Ming, knocking on the door.

Since he had said before going into seclusion that he was going to practice magic, Zhuo Ming would definitely not come to disturb him unless it was something important.

Therefore, Chen Mobai immediately stopped his cultivation, withdrew the Spiritual Sense attached to the Formless Puppet, and got up to activate the Array Formation.

"I'm sorry to bother you, Master."

"It's alright, but is there something wrong?"

"Senior Brother Yuan... no, Uncle Yuan has successfully Foundation Establishment. Uncle E Yun has sent a message to invite you to celebrate together."

This is good news. As someone from the same faction, Chen Mobai should indeed make the trip.

"Okay, go to Little Sun Ridge and dig up a jar of Spirit Wine that I buried last year. Come with me."

"Yes, Master."

night.

Chen Mobai brought his apprentice to Divine Wood City.

It was still the same courtyard in E Yun.

Under the large tree in the center of the courtyard, the three sat around a small square table, drinking and chatting happily.

"I owe my successful Foundation Establishment this time to Senior Brother E E's Heavenly Cicada Spirit Leaf, it's just a pity..."

Chen Mobai arrived late and only Daoyuan after hearing Yuan Chiye's explanation.

Originally, even though he had made ample preparations, he had only managed to condense six drops of Liquid Spiritual Power before he was already overwhelmed when he reached the stage of Condensing Qi into Liquid and Liquid Transformation in Foundation Establishment.

Just when it seemed all his efforts were about to fail, the Heavenly Cicada Spirit Leaf that E Yun had given him suddenly flew up on its own and merged into his dantian, releasing a large amount of pure Wood Spiritual Qi. This helped him complete the process of Condensing Qi into Liquid, and finally rushed into the Purple Mansion, protecting Yuan Chiye's Spiritual Sense Projection as it left his body, completing the leap in essence, qi, and spirit, and advancing him to the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Since this ' Heavenly Cicada Spirit Leaf ' shines in your hands, it is clear that it is destined for you. There is no need to feel guilty. Use it."

Although E Yun wore a wry smile, he still gracefully gave Yuan Chiye the opportunity he had obtained from the Divine Tree Secret Realm.

There was no other way but to give it to him. After Foundation Establishment, this "Heavenly Cicada Spirit Leaf" became like his Lifebound Artifact, merging with Yuan Chiye's essence, energy, and spirit.

If E Yun forcibly takes back this spiritual object, then he will have to destroy Yuan Chiye's Dao foundation.

Even if you're very reluctant to part with it, you can still distinguish between what's important and what's not.

"Senior Brother Xie. I will serve you faithfully from now on."

For Yuan Chiye, E Yun's kindness to him was truly greater than the sky.

Without the Heavenly Cicada Spirit Leaf, he would not have been able to successfully Foundation Establishment this time. Although he was old enough to compete for the next batch of Foundation Establishment made from Jade Marrow Golden Ganoderma, he would definitely not have been able to enter the Divine Tree Secret Realm.

"This Heavenly Cicada Spirit Leaf is so miraculous? If it is combined with the Foundation Establishment, wouldn't it guarantee the Foundation Establishment?"

Chen Mobai, however, thought of another direction and mentioned a key point that neither E Yun nor Yuan Chiye had discovered.

"I will write a report on this matter and submit it to the Sect Leader. It may also be placed in the Scripture Pavilion for future generations to consult."

E Yun said that since everyone's opportunities in the Divine Tree Secret Realm are basically different, and it seems that only he has obtained the Heavenly Cicada Spirit Leaf, there is still a lack of sufficient samples to verify whether this idea is feasible.

However, Zhuo Ming, who was serving wine on the side, had a bright look in her eyes and remembered this magical item.

Heavenly Cicada Spirit Leaf!

"It's a pity that Junior Brother Niu Foundation Establishment Failure."

The three then talked about another true disciple of their faction, Niu Longyuan of the Spirit Beast Department. He didn't have Yuan Chiye's good luck. Although he made many preparations, he still couldn't get past this hurdle.

"By the way, Junior Brother Chen, Junior Sister Ding came to me a few days ago, saying that she had some misunderstanding with you before and wanted me to help explain."

This Junior Sister Ding is naturally Ding Ying.

After the Sect Grand Competition, she immediately went into seclusion and took the Foundation Establishment, but unfortunately, due to insufficient foundation and lack of opportunity, she failed.

"I stopped caring about it a long time ago."

Those seemingly insignificant matters from back then are now forgotten after Chen Mobai advanced to the Foundation Establishment.

Moreover, Ding Ying and he originally had no grudges against each other.

Come to think of it, it was he who rashly came to her door. At that time, Chen Mobai was indeed not of high enough status, so it was normal for her to look down on him.

"That's good. Junior Sister Ding heard that you were looking for materials to make Talisman Brush. She happened to have some Wolf Hair Brush she collected in her early years. After making the Talisman Brush, she had some left over, and she asked me to give them to you."

E Yun handed over a box of Wolf Hair Brush. Chen Mobai took a look and found that the quality was even better than the Mystic Spirit Rabbit fur in his hand.

Having served Chief of the Ding Ying -Talisman Department for so many years, anything that catches her eye and is kept by her must be of high quality.

"I have no grudges with Senior Sister Ding. We can talk it out. I won't accept the gifts."

After Chen Mobai Foundation Establishment, he felt that he needed to broaden his horizons, so he pushed the box of Wolf Hair Brush back.

"Junior Brother Chen, only after you accept it can Junior Sister Ding feel at ease. She has good talent, and if she gets another Foundation Establishment Pill in the next batch, she is very likely to Foundation Establishment. I can't bear to see her living in fear every day."

E Yun spoke softly, pointing out the problem.

Chen Mobai considered the situation from the perspective of the cultivators in the Sky River Realm, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

Indeed, if she didn't accept the box of Wolf Hair Brush, Ding Ying would feel that he still harbored resentment for his past mockery. Even as a true disciple, the thought of having a promising Foundation Establishment Elder with a grudge against her would surely make her anxious and restless.

If she had a weaker mindset, her life might have been ruined.

"Very well, since you say so, senior brother, I will accept it."

Chen Mobai accepted E Yun's suggestion, thus settling another Karma and effect.

Next, the three of them talked about the results of these True Disciple taking the Foundation Establishment.

Besides Yuan Chiye, five other people successfully Foundation Establishment, but three of them were taking Foundation Establishment for the second time.

In other words, a total of four people will enter the Divine Tree Secret Realm.

Chen Mobai calculated the success rate. Not counting himself and Yuan Chiye, who were two unexpected cases, plus Hong He, Zhou Wangshen, E Yun, who had already successfully Foundation Establishment at the beginning, there were eight True Disciple in this batch who had successfully Foundation Establishment.

The success rate of Foundation Establishment is just over 30%.

It can only be said that the Foundation Establishment truly deserves to be called a supreme spiritual medicine. It's just a pity that the Immortal Sect don't have enough main ingredients to refine it.

"This is a record of the Divine Tree Secret Realm from the Scripture Pavilion. However, many senior brothers and sisters were unwilling to make it public after obtaining the opportunity, so it only records some well-known spiritual objects."

When Chen Mobai and Yuan Chiye left, E Yun handed them the two volumes of books he had prepared.

After thanking them, the two returned to their respective residences in Divine Wood City.

Chen Mobai brought Zhuo Ming to the property he obtained after advancing to the Foundation Establishment. Although it was in a place where mortals gathered, the spiritual energy was still good, and it was measured to be of the first-grade upper level.

All I can say is that the Spirit Vein in Giant Wood Ridge is abundant.

In his courtyard, Chen Mobai sat on a recliner and took out the book that recorded the Divine Tree Secret Realm.

The book is quite thick.

Upon opening it, I discovered that it contained records not only from the time of the Divine Wood Sect, but also from the time before the Five Elements Sect split up, including records of Foundation Establishment disciples entering the Divine Tree Secret Realm.

After flipping through the pages, Chen Mobai discovered many wonderful things that were truly captivating.

For example, Azure Wood Spirit Heart, which can expand the Purple Mansion Sea of Consciousness; the Defensive Spirit Leaf, which can block one Third Grade spell attack; and the Tree Sap, which is very helpful for body tempering techniques.

Among them, the most famous is naturally Master Mo from Golden Light Cliff.

He obtained a branch from the Divine Tree Secret Realm, which he refined into his Natal Flying Sword, making him the number one Sword Cultivator in the Eastern Wasteland.

Secondly, there was the True Disciple Chief of the Divine Wood Sect twenty years ago, who obtained a "Longevity Tree Fruit." After consuming it, he directly advanced from the early to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, saving decades of effort.

What Chen Mobai coveted most was this "Longevity Tree Fruit".

He is a believer in the theory of realm suppression, but he doesn't know if the "Longevity Tree Fruit" will have any side effects in raising one's realm, since the effect is just too heaven-defying.

Furthermore, since it is possible to progress from the early to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, is it also possible to advance from the middle stage to the late stage?

Or perhaps, one can directly achieve the Foundation Establishment in one step?

The more I think about it, the more I want it.

Compared to this "Longevity Tree Fruit," he felt that all other magical treasures were illusory.

the next day.

He then visited E Yun and inquired about the "Longevity Tree Fruit".

"You're saying this, but after seeing what Senior Brother Yue is going through, I doubt you'll want it anymore. He happens to be in Divine Wood City too, so I'll take you to visit him."

Without wasting any words, E Yun took Chen Mobai directly to the courtyard next door.

A young man with white hair and a youthful face sat on a bamboo chair, leisurely drinking tea. In his courtyard, Chen Mobai saw all kinds of Talisman Paper, Talisman Ink, some broken Magic Artifact, and even a Alchemy Furnace.

"Oh, junior brother, what brings you here to see me today?"

Although the boy's tone and behavior were very youthful, Chen Mobai saw a sense of age in him.

"This is the current Chief of the sect. I brought him here to pay you a visit."

E Yun introduced Chen Mobai, and then this Senior Brother Yue brought out two chairs from inside the house, gesturing for them to sit down.

"I know him. He's about to enter the Divine Tree Secret Realm, so you brought him here to see what will happen to me."

This Senior Brother Yue made a self-deprecating joke. His name is Yue Zutao. Although his real age is not yet sixty, his body is actually a hundred years old.

"What's going on?"

At Yue Zutao's prompting, Chen Mobai touched his bone age and was greatly surprised.

"Although the Longevity Tree Fruit has amazing effects, it actually uses your lifespan to convert into realm and power."

"I didn't know before I took it and thought I had obtained a heaven-defying opportunity, but in the following twenty years, I found that not only could I not break through the realm, but my lifespan was also reduced by a full forty years."

"To warn future disciples, before each new junior brother or sister enters the Divine Tree Secret Realm, I have them touch my bone age and advise them not to consume the Longevity Tree Fruit unless absolutely necessary."

Chen Mobai only found out after Yue Zutao told him.

This tree fruit, besides consuming your lifespan, will also trap your cultivation level at the step after a breakthrough.

Over the past twenty years, Yue Zutao has tried every possible method and consumed countless pills, but apart from being able to increase his spiritual power, he has been unable to break through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, as if he were stuck at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

"This matter even alarmed Old Ancestor Zhou, who took me to Returning Heaven Valley for medical treatment. Master Yan said that I consumed forty years of lifespan by taking the tree fruit, which was equivalent to gaining forty years of spiritual power from meditation and cultivation overnight, thus breaking through my cultivation realm."

"In addition to paying forty years of my lifespan, I also need to stay in the mid -Foundation Establishment stage for forty years so that the bottleneck to the late -Foundation Establishment can be broken."

"No matter what kind of pills I take to increase my cultivation, after forty years of taking the tree fruit, I will at most reach the peak of the mid- Foundation Establishment, unless I take a spiritual object of a higher grade than the Longevity Tree Fruit to break the effect of the medicine."

At this point, Yue Zutao looked helpless. The Longevity Wood was Fourth Grade spiritual tree, and its fruit was naturally also Fourth Grade, already the best spiritual object in the Eastern Wasteland.

Let's not even talk about whether there are any Fifth Order spiritual items that can counteract the side effects of the tree fruit. Even if there were, let alone Yue Zutao, even the Divine Wood Sect might not be able to afford them.

So over the years, he stopped cultivating and instead devoted himself to miscellaneous things such as Spirit Plant, Talisman, pills, and Artifact Refining.

He has achieved some success and is now the Spirit Planter with the highest success rate in refining Second Grade tree species within the sect.

The three were chatting when another person arrived.
