Chapter 77 The ninth level of Qi refining
After having a good meal and a good drink, Ji An and his three companions bid farewell to Zhang Yuanshan together, and then left on the Fu Niao.

Ji An sank his mind into his dantian and communicated with the stone turtle.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly and he patted his belly with satisfaction.

[Spiritual Motives: Kan Spirit 121.6, Kun Spirit 665.6, Xun Spirit 390.1, Zhen Spirit 6.6, Qian Spirit 0.2]

In just half a day, the points gained from several kinds of spiritual energy exceeded the gains from a whole day and night in the spiritual fields in the valley, which proved that his original guess was correct.

In the future, as long as you break through the foundation-building stage and choose a spiritual vein node, the spiritual energy absorbed by the stone turtle can be used to practice spells, so you don’t have to worry about the foundation-building spells consuming more spiritual energy.

The stone turtle absorbed a trace of dry spirit, which means that as long as you find the right place, you can obtain the eight kinds of spiritual power.

When he first got the stone turtle, Ji An was puzzled because the spiritual energy of heaven and earth did not show any tendency of the five elements, and should be in a chaotic state. In that case, the spiritual energy that the stone turtle could absorb should include eight kinds.

Now I gradually understand that inspiration is a more special kind of energy, but what it specifically is needs to be verified slowly in the future.

The flying speed of the talisman bird was much lower than that of the flying boat, and it took nearly an hour to fly out of the coverage of the magic circle.

Feeling the gap in the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, Ji An felt lost.

"Two junior brothers, we will go ahead and see you later."

Zhao Mengyao and the other girl seemed to have found some common topic, and they left together, talking and laughing.

Chu He bowed and said uninterestedly:
"Junior brother, I will leave tomorrow after meeting with the clan elders and rush back to Mount Moya. When are you planning to join the monster hunt again?"

He was feeling a little down. Although he had expected this day to come, he still felt a strange feeling and a tightness in his heart when he saw his former companions striding forward on the path of cultivating immortals while he was moving forward slowly.

Ji An pursed his lips and thought for a moment before saying:

"I have an important matter that needs to be verified, and it will be difficult for me to have free time in the next six months.

If things go well, we should be able to free up four or five days every now and then in the next three months.”

He wanted to see how long it would take for the talisman grass to mature, and what the quality rate of the talisman paper made from it would be. This way he could indirectly test how much the Xiaoyunyushu had changed.

Chu He nodded slightly. This was a good thing. If the team couldn't find a suitable target, five people would have to do the work of four, and they would get less crystals.

"Brother, let's say goodbye now."

"See you later."

Seeing Chu He's somewhat desolate back, Ji An sighed slightly.

He could see that Chu He was emotionally impacted today. He used to be inseparable from Zhang Yuanshan, but as time went by, the gap between them gradually widened.

The gap between the Foundation Establishment Stage and the Eighth Level of Qi Refining is actually quite large, not to mention that the other party's Foundation Establishment Pill is still nowhere to be found.

Not everyone is as fearless as he is. His spiritual awareness is more powerful than that of cultivators of the same level, and the stone turtle provides great help. The speed at which he accumulates crystals and practices spells far exceeds that of normal cultivators.

In his opinion, it is not too late to let others run for a distance before he catches up.

Chu He's talisman bird gradually turned into a small black shadow. Ji An found a secluded place, released the spirit-seeking rat to guard it, and sat down cross-legged to practice the Qingyuan Sutra.

The meal he exchanged for a piece of red blood copper was all spiritual food and fruits, which was comparable to a ginseng pill to him. How could he waste it?

After refining the spiritual energy in the spiritual food, Ji An felt refreshed and boarded the Talisman Bird, slowly flying towards the Bishui Lake.

Life became peaceful. Ji An practiced the Thick Soil Technique on the spiritual fields every day, paying close attention to the needs of the spiritual plants and applying rain every few days.

In the remaining time, he would spend half of it practicing the Sharp Gold Technique and occasionally practicing the Wind Control Technique, and the other half of the time he would activate the Soul Capture Array and devote all his energy to improving his cultivation.

Pieces of spiritual stones turned into powder, and his cultivation level naturally broke through to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

The immortal veins became thicker and tougher, and their length increased slightly. At the same time, three more branches, about an inch long, opened up. Now the immortal veins had expanded to most areas of his body, and the duration of each practice increased by another quarter of an hour.

With daily nourishment from spiritual energy, the color of the Cloud and Rain Dao Seed seems to have become a little deeper.

The mist in the valley dispersed and gathered, gathered and dispersed, and a month and a half passed.

Ji An stood in the spiritual field, looking at the golden grass waves undulating in the wind, breathing in the unique scent of the talisman grass, and a bright smile bloomed in the sun.

Two months, just two months for the talisman grass to mature. Their normal growth cycle is three months.

The talisman grass in those first-level spiritual fields matured earlier, and he had already harvested a batch.

In this way, he can grow two more rounds of talisman grass than others in a year, and the sect's taxes are still collected every three months, which means he has fleeced the sect of the right to use two rounds of spiritual fields.

At this moment, Ji An just wanted to speak out his heart loudly:
'I'm very rich!'

The better the quality of the talisman grass, the tougher it is. Harvesting it is a hard job, but Ji An doesn't feel it's hard at all.

Each of these talisman grasses is a piece of spirit stone, which is his hope to exchange for the foundation-building pill.

The harvest is satisfying, and Ji An always feels like picking up spirit stones.

Calling Huang Feihu for help, it took them two days to harvest more than ten acres of talisman grass.

In the evening breeze, Huang Feihu wiped the sweat from his forehead, grabbed a handful of talisman grass, carefully identified the patterns on the leaves and stalks, pulled hard a few times, and exhaled:

"Brother, the talisman grass you grow is different from others."

How can it be the same? This is the result of the higher level of Xiaoyunyushu.

Those skilled spiritual farmers have taken on the task of managing the sect's medicinal fields. In the area of ​​​​Bishui Lake, his planting level should be the best.

Ji An complained in his heart, to be fair he also wanted to go to the medicine field.

Medicinal fields are all built on spiritual vein nodes. It is said that the most common spiritual fields are at least of the first-grade mid-level.

After completing the daily tasks, you will be allowed to stay there and practice for two hours, which is equivalent to using an ordinary soul-capturing array for two hours for free.

For him, it would also allow the stone turtle to absorb more spiritual energy, while at the same time allowing him to come back and plant a few acres of spiritual fields.

Ji An suppressed the jealousy that was rising in his heart and said with a smile:

"Feihu, have you decided which immortal cultivation skill to learn?"

"I discussed it with my grandfather and decided to learn how to make talismans, because I can grow the talisman grass myself, which reduces some of the costs."

A hint of shrewdness flashed in Huang Feihu's honest eyes. A beginner in making talismans does not need to use high-quality talisman paper. A low-grade first-level talisman paper is completely sufficient.

In addition, he can also ask Senior Brother Ji for advice from time to time. Perhaps a few words of advice from the other party can help him avoid many detours.

Ji An nodded slightly:

"That's good. The cost of making talismans is much lower than that of refining pills and equipment, and it's more suitable for poor cultivators like us.

When I have made talisman paper from this batch of talisman grass, I will leave the lower-quality talisman paper for you to practice with."

Huang Feihu bared his teeth and thought:

"If Senior Brother is still considered a poor cultivator, then there wouldn't be enough wealthy Qi Refining disciples in the sect!"

 Sorry, I forgot the time.
