Qingcang Immortal Clan: Starting with Farming to Increase Luck

"Brother Yang, that's it! All those black worms are taken care of!"

As Lu Tong looked at the black insects inside the spirit cage with surprise, he felt goosebumps all over his body. There were so many, densely packed, that it triggered his trypophobia. No wonder the green barley in the field was so listless.

With these scourges around, it's no wonder things are bad.

"Almost there."

Lu Yang started with zero frames again, gathering clouds and rain. Without the black insects and nourished by the spiritual rain, the originally listless Qinglingke finally perked up a bit.

With a stomp of his foot, he used a small earth-shaking spell to cover the spirit field, which began to improve the soil quality. The green spirit barley absorbed the nutrients from the spirit field and immediately changed its bleak appearance, regaining its luster.

Seeing the magnificent scene, Lu Jie was overjoyed.

Become!

Lu Yang helped her preserve her acre of spiritual land, but along with the joy, there was also some bitterness.

Lu Yang broke through to the first level of Qi Refining in less than a year, yet he has already mastered so many spiritual plant techniques in such a short time.

She had been on her breakthrough for over three months, and aside from cultivating and farming, she spent almost all her remaining time studying spiritual plant techniques. But what was the result? She hadn't even mastered the Lesser Cloud and Rain Technique.

Does poor aptitude truly mean there's no hope for immortality?

However, this thought only flashed through Lu Jie's mind for a moment. So what if she had five spiritual roots? Even if she had to risk her life, she would still try to reach the Foundation Establishment stage.

Beauty fades and life ends. Since she possesses such exceptional spiritual talent, what good would it do to seek immortality if she were content to remain in one place?

Thinking of this, Lu Jie looked at Lu Yang and said, "Lu Yang, I have been practicing the Lesser Cloud and Rain Technique for three months, but I have not been able to grasp the essence of it. May I ask if you may help me?"

At this point, Lu Jie suddenly fell silent. Whose time isn't precious? Everything in the cultivation world has long been clearly priced. Even within a clan, contribution points are important. Why should Lu Yang teach you if there are no benefits?

Lu Yang was still maintaining the Lesser Cloud and Rain Technique, using it with his left hand and the Lesser Thick Earth Technique with his right, looking quite dashing.

While performing the spell, Lu Yang felt the vibrant life force of the Qingling Barley, and a variety of insights welled up in his mind.

At this moment, with his spiritual energy depleted, Lu Yang's control over the Cloud and Rain Technique became even more precise. It seemed that he could control the Cloud and Rain points as long as he wanted, unlike before when he could only decide when to start, how large the area was, and when to end.

Through the Small Thick Soil Technique, Lu Yang could more accurately resonate with the green barley in the field. At this moment, Lu Yang seemed to be able to feel the joy of the green barley after a long drought.

With the combined use of spells, although Lu Yang had already planted a batch of green spirit barley and the results were quite good, because Lu Yang's spirit field was growing very well, he basically just added a spirit plant spell to the spirit field from time to time.

Never before have we used such a magical synergy to save these green barley crops, giving a piece of spiritual land a chance to save them.

He was probably on the verge of mastering the basics. This collaboration caused Lu Yang's proficiency in the Lesser Cloud Rain Technique and Lesser Thick Earth Technique to skyrocket.

In particular, the Lesser Cloud Rain Technique achieved a breakthrough, reaching the minor completion level.

With the combined effects of the spells, the Lesser Cloud Rain Spell and the Lesser Thick Earth Spell complemented each other, allowing the Lesser Thick Earth Spell, which was initially lagging behind the Lesser Golden Sharp Spell, to now catch up and charge towards the Lesser Completion stage.

As proficiency increases, techniques can be categorized into beginner, minor mastery, advanced mastery, and perfection.

Beginner level is merely the stage where one can use the technique; minor mastery is considered a preliminary grasp of the essence of the art.

For example, the effect of the Minor Cloud and Rain Technique that Lu Yang has now is more than ten times greater than before.

With all his insights coming to a close, Lu Yang's Lesser Thick Earth Technique also successfully reached the minor mastery level.

Feeling the improvement in these two techniques, Lu Yang couldn't hide his joy.

This sudden enlightenment, this should be the enlightenment that the Taoist academy teachers talked about. According to the Taoist academy teachers, this kind of enlightenment is extremely rare in the world, and it does not depend on aptitude, but only on opportunity.

Lu Yang never expected that his opportunity would come from helping Lu Jie this time.

Compared to the gains from magic, the reward for helping this time is negligible.

Sowing good seeds yields good fruit—that's certainly true. It's a pity that the fortune within the Destiny-Breaking Pearl didn't improve, which is quite out of place.

Turning to look at Lu Jie, Lu Yang's sudden enlightenment just now happened in an instant, and it came so subtly that Lu Tong and Lu Jie didn't even notice it. They thought this was Lu Yang's true level, and were instead greatly shocked.

Hearing Lu Jie's hesitant words, Lu Yang knew exactly what she was thinking.

"Lu Jie, have you ever felt the pulse of lovemaking?"

"The pulse of clouds and rain!"

"Yes, it's the pulse of clouds and rain, you see."

Lu Yang guided a wisp of water-attribute spiritual energy and began to draw along a certain trajectory. With just this drawing, a cloud slowly formed.

This!

Lu Jie's eyes widened in shock at what she saw: the pulse of the clouds!

Unlike Lu Yang's previous use of the Spirit Frame technique, this time Lu Yang's technique was performed at a speed many times slower. Lu Jie seemed to see a certain trajectory in Lu Yang's technique.

I couldn't help but start learning; yes, that's the feeling, that's exactly it.

Lu Jie has been practicing the Lesser Cloud Rain Technique for over three months. Although she has not yet made any progress, her efforts will not be in vain.

After three months of accumulation, and with Lu Yang's guidance, those small efforts suddenly began to come together.

The clumsy movements, imbued with a water-elemental spiritual energy, gradually formed an ugly cloud.

Yes, it is indeed very ugly, but in Lu Jie's eyes, this cloud is the most beautiful cloud in the world.

Become!

After three months of practice, she finally grasped the basics of the Lesser Cloud Rain Technique.

Lu Yang smiled as he watched this scene unfold. As the clouds turned to rain, Lu Jie's eyes shone even brighter as she watched the raindrops fall. This feeling was simply wonderful.

Seeing Lu Jie lost in thought, Lu Yang didn't disturb her any further, but instead left directly with Lu Tong.

Whether it was Lu Jie's luck or the mystery of cause and effect, if Lu Yang hadn't mastered the Lesser Cloud Rain Technique this time, he wouldn't have been able to guide Lu Jie to that level.

Although Lu Jie hasn't fully mastered the Lesser Cloud Rain Technique yet, she's already taken one step in. With her perseverance, taking the other half is just a matter of time.

"Brother Yang, you're simply amazing! You can summon wind and rain! The divine abilities we talked about back then are nothing more than this."

That's incredible skill! We're still far from it.

The peak of a cultivator's spirit is when they first step into the path of cultivation, but as they continue cultivating, their spirit gradually weakens.

Because reality is constantly hitting them, the higher their level of understanding, the more they realize their own insignificance.

Lu Tong was heading to the weapon-refining hall, and after thinking for a moment, Lu Yang also headed towards the council hall.

This was Lu Yang's second time visiting the council hall. Unlike last time, when Lu Yunxia was with him, they simply barged in.

Lu Yang didn't think he had as much influence as Lu Yunxia, ​​so seeing that the council hall doors were closed and there were clansmen guarding the entrance, he could only wait obediently.

The clan leader must be discussing important matters at this moment.

Standing outside the door, Lu Yang held the monster egg in his hand and examined it closely. To be honest, even though Lu Yang had gone through nine years of compulsory education at the Dao Academy, he seemed somewhat illiterate when faced with this monster egg. He couldn't even tell what kind of monster egg it was, let alone what level it belonged to.

boom!

The doors of the council hall swung open with a bang, and Lu Yang quickly put away the monster egg and looked ahead.

A group of nine people walked out of the council hall, causing Lu Yang's expression to turn solemn. The nine elders had gathered in the council hall; what major event had occurred in the clan that made them so solemn?

No, it wasn't just the nine elders. The eldest elder, who was leading the way, seemed to be holding the hand of a child who looked to be only three or four years old, chubby and just like when Lu Yang first came up the mountain.

Bringing a three-year-old into the council hall? Could he be an illegitimate child that the Grand Elder found outside? You know, no other promising student in their generation received this treatment.
