Chapter 586 Expansion of Spiritual Herbs

Next is the Lingtian area.

The same process was followed. A wood-type spirit stone was embedded in the center of the spirit field, slightly to the north, and a pattern-carving knife was used to carve the core array pattern on the surface of the spirit soil. The spirit field was about five zhang square, larger than the water area, so the area for laying the auxiliary loop was correspondingly expanded.

Deployment complete, activated.

Low-frequency spiritual energy spread from the array's core to the entire spiritual field. The roots of the Azure Origin Wood Heart Grass twitched slightly under the influence of the spiritual energy, increasing their absorption efficiency.

Both spiritual plant growth-inducing arrays are now in place.

Li Yuan then took out the jade slip containing the Spirit Field Cultivation Technique and studied the advanced planting methods for terrestrial spiritual herbs.

Tier 0 spiritual herbs have higher requirements for the spiritual energy ratio of the soil, with precise standards for sowing depth, frequency of spiritual energy application, and duration of sunlight.

The soil conditioning method recorded in the Spirit Field Refinement Technique can optimize the distribution of spiritual energy in the spiritual soil to a state more suitable for the rooting of third-tier spiritual herbs.

Li Yuan adjusted the soil of the spirit field according to the method of the Spirit Field Cultivation Technique. Spiritual energy seeped into the spirit soil from his fingertips, adjusting the distribution of spiritual energy in the soil from a uniform state to a gradient distribution from deep to shallow, simulating the spiritual energy flow of the spirit field above the spirit vein in the natural environment.

After the allocation was completed, the newly purchased terrestrial herb seedlings were planted one by one.

Two third-tier spiritual herbs and three second-tier spiritual herbs were planted, and their varieties were not the same as those planted previously. The number of spiritual herbs in the spiritual field has increased to eight, covering the main ingredients of the Nourishing Essence and Strengthening Wood Pill and the auxiliary ingredients of several commonly used pills.

Planting completed.

Li Yuan exited the small realm and sensed the overall spiritual energy consumption of the small realm.

With the two growth-inducing arrays and the increased number of spiritual plants, the spiritual energy consumption of the small world has indeed increased significantly compared to before.

The source of spiritual energy in the small world is oneself, and one is currently continuously supplying spiritual energy to the small world.

The consumption wasn't too great, not to mention that he still had thirteen spiritual veins and a spirit-gathering array on his body.

After finishing his business in the small realm, Li Yuan took out the blueprints for a third-order large-scale spirit gathering array from his personal small realm.

Li Yuan plans to set up a third-order spirit-gathering array within his body to replace the ordinary spirit-gathering array currently in his body.

Li Yuan closed his eyes, his consciousness sinking into his body.

The currently operating ordinary spirit-gathering array has only three nodes, with an extremely simple structure. The third-tier version is seven to eight times more complex than the original.

More importantly, the spiritual energy circulation of the third-order spirit gathering array is nested in three layers.

When deploying external arrays, three nested layers mean that three sets of loops are stacked in physical space without interfering with each other.

When arranging the internal energy channels, the three layers of pathways need to coexist within the same meridian system. Since the number of meridians is limited, it's impossible to allocate a separate meridian channel for each layer of pathways.

The three-layered circuits must reuse the same batch of meridians at different times.

It's like having three cars driving on the same highway at the same time; you need to precisely calculate the time interval between each car to ensure there's no collision.

The precision required for manipulating spiritual energy is extremely high.

Li Yuan first removed the current ordinary spirit-gathering array. The spiritual energy circulation at the three nodes was interrupted, and the rate at which external spiritual energy flowed in plummeted back to normal breathing levels.

Then the deployment of the third-tier version began.

With sixteen lines of divine sense, perfect control of spiritual power, and the assistance of the array Dao Heavenly Pivot inscription, Li Yuan's setup went relatively smoothly.

After the core framework of the formation was completed, the auxiliary nodes began to be laid out.

Finally, there is time-division multiplexing of three nested loops.

The final setup was completed, and spiritual energy was injected.

Thirty-six core nodes are activated simultaneously.

Hundreds of auxiliary nodes were launched simultaneously.

The three-layer nested loops begin to rotate at half-breath intervals.

The first layer draws in external spiritual energy. The speed at which spiritual energy flows into the body through the pores suddenly increases, more than three times faster than during a normal spirit-gathering array.

The second layer of filtration and purification involves removing trace impurities from the incoming spiritual energy through vibrations of spiritual power at a special frequency within the circuit, significantly increasing its purity.

The third layer of pressurized delivery. The purified, high-quality spiritual energy was pressurized and pushed into the dantian area, and the concentration of spiritual energy around the golden core soared to an extremely high level within a few breaths.

The third-tier spirit-gathering array within the body has been successfully activated.

The feeling of spiritual energy flowing in was completely different from before.

A regular spirit-gathering array absorbs, like a small vortex slowly drawing in spiritual energy. A third-tier spirit-gathering array pours in, like turning on a high-pressure water tap, forcing spiritual energy into the dantian area at extremely high speed and purity.

The golden core trembled slightly under the influence of the high-purity spiritual energy, and its dark golden luster became more restrained and refined under the influence of the spiritual energy.

After the refinement of the Supreme Golden Elixir approached its limit and the increase in density almost stagnated, a slight but perceptible change reappeared under the spiritual energy supply of the third-order Spirit Gathering Array.

The benefits from upgrading the internal formation far exceeded expectations.

Li Yuan opened his eyes and sensed the state of his body.

The three-layered loop operated smoothly, with no disruptions in the timing transitions. The spiritual energy flow to the core nodes was uniform, and the boosting functions of the auxiliary nodes were normal. The meridian system showed no signs of overloading the third-order spirit-gathering array.

The improved meridian resilience from the initial completion of the dual-track body refinement, coupled with the optimization of the body's spiritual energy capacity after entering the spiritual body forging technique, provides a sufficient physical foundation for the operation of the third-order array within the body.

Li Yuan withdrew his senses from his body and continued his cultivation cross-legged.

The spiritual energy supply from the third-tier spirit-gathering array significantly boosted the efficiency of cultivation.

The meditation room fell silent, and spiritual energy silently flowed in.
