Chapter 683 Great Technique: Yuanxi Yanwo
Year 6520 of the First Yuan Era.
The five armies of Jianguo, with a total of 100,000 soldiers, led by the second prince, invaded Yunguo.
The royal family of Yunguo organized an army to stop them, but they were defeated in three battles. In less than a year, most of the territory fell.
Seeing that Yunguo was about to be completely conquered by Jianguo, a group of immortal cultivators suddenly appeared in front of Jianguo's army, holding a formation flag and casting a sky-covering fog.
The Jianguo army could not get out of the fog range, and seeing that the food and grass were about to run out, the second prince could only use the last trick and had someone build an altar.
The one who cast the fog was a sect called Qingsong Sect. There were only 22 immortal cultivators in the sect. Because the elder with the highest cultivation owed a favor to the royal family, he was invited to come out this time.
In the eyes of Qingsong Sect, it was easy for them to send all their troops to stop the mortal army.
Facts have proved that this is indeed the case.
After the Qingsong Wind and Cloud Formation was set up, Jianguo's army was trapped in the fog like a headless fly.
However, the Great Elder of Qingsong Sect had some knowledge. He knew that Jianguo was the base camp of Shenmu Sect, and maybe it had some connection with Shenmu Sect, so he only trapped but did not kill, hoping that the second prince would retreat.
Then, the Great Elder saw that the second prince had people set up an altar, holding a talisman in both hands and saluting to the sky, and then he summoned up his strength and shouted loudly.
"Shenmu Immortal Sect has ordered that the cultivators of Donghuang should not interfere with the unification of the mortal world. I advise the immortals on the opposite side to withdraw their immortal methods and retreat immediately, otherwise when I light this talisman, the immortals of the immortal sect will come and kill you personally!"
The second prince was also a martial arts innate, and these words were naturally heard by the cultivators of Qingsong Sect on the opposite side.
The name of Shenmu Sect is known to everyone in the whole Donghuang.
So the disciples of Qingsong Sect all looked at the great elder who was practicing Qi at the ninth level.
At this time, the great elder cursed the royal family of Yunguo in his heart.
Then, without any hesitation, he put away his magic weapon and said one word to all the disciples: "Retreat".
So, the second prince saw the huge fog that trapped his men for three days and three nights. After he finished speaking, it began to slowly dissipate until the sky was clear and bright.
Is this the name of the Shenmu Immortal Sect!
The second prince felt a surge of heat in his heart when he saw this scene.
At the same time, he was more motivated to unify the East Wilderness.
After the Qingsong Sect retreated, the royal family of the Yun Kingdom no longer had any power to resist. In just one year, the entire Yun Kingdom was taken down by the Jianguo.
Year 6521 of the First Yuan Era.
After taking down the Yun Kingdom and resting, the Jianguo army, led by the brave second prince, once again sent troops to the Rain Kingdom.
This battle was even faster, because the news that the Shenmu Sect wanted to unify had spread throughout the cultivation world. Even if there were occasional wild cultivators, they were dealt with by the local cultivation families of the Rain Kingdom.
In just less than half a year, the royal family of the Rain Kingdom opened the city and surrendered.
At the same time, Zhao Zheng of Yan State also led the army and took down Xiao State after two years of hard work.
The people on the East Wilderness Plateau are fierce, and the strength of Yan State is far less than that of Jianguo, so it takes almost the whole country's strength to take down Xiao State, which is of the same size.
If this trend continues, King Zhao will face the mighty Jianguo army, and he may not have time to digest Xiao State before the capital will be razed.
But the Jianguo army was blocked by a solid wall in the process of going north.
Lei State controls the plains and plateaus. If Jianguo wants to go north to unify the seven Shenmu countries, it must take down Lei State.
And King Sheng of Lei State is also a sage king. Under the situation of weak national strength, he fully trusts General Duan Shuyu, and gives him the country's 30,000 elite troops, and personally cuts down on food and clothing to ensure logistics.
Duan Shuyu did not disappoint King Sheng.
With 30,000 troops on the border city, he took advantage of the plateau and did not let Jianguo's 100,000 troops pass a step.
The army led by the second prince was trapped here for three whole years without making any progress.
Zhao Zheng in the rear saw this opportunity and, in addition to assisting the Thunder Kingdom, also took the opportunity to send troops to take down the Rainbow Kingdom.
Chen Mobai basically gave all these matters to Jiang Zongheng to handle.
In the past five years, except for the reception of the Jindan cultivators from the Xingtian Dao Sect who came to help sow seeds, he spent most of the rest of the time practicing the fourth-level fire veins in Danxia Mountain.
The passage of time also allowed his cultivation skills to improve.
Among them, the Eight Yang Body finally had its first transformation two years ago.
[Gold 23, Wood 43, Water 33, Fire 93, Earth 52]!
In addition to the improvement of the fire spirit root, his earth spirit root also improved by 7 points because he took two earth vein pills again.
During these three transformations of the spirit roots, he naturally did not forget to go to the God Tree Secret Realm.
He got the gold escape, wood escape, and a great technique called "Yuanxi Yanwo" respectively.
This great art requires the spiritual power of the Earthly Immortal Scripture to be performed. It is a great art used by the Changsheng Sect to cultivate the soil of longevity.
When Chen Mobai obtained this great art, the Jindan cultivator who was instructing the planting of the Great Sun Purple Rice from the Xingtian Dao Sect came over, so he went out of retreat to greet him and asked Granny Ming about the matter of "Yuanxi Yanwo".
It turned out that in ancient times, the power of the Changsheng Sect spread all over the Eastern Region.
Each of the Changsheng Sect’s resident sites needs to plant spiritual trees. After the spiritual trees grow into a forest, a fourth-level Changsheng tree needs to be cultivated. Only in this way can the Changsheng formation be set up to protect the believers in the ancient environment where monsters are everywhere and natural disasters are frequent.
The fourth-level Changsheng wood needs enough Changsheng soil to advance. It is also the life spirit plant of the Qingdi Changsheng Sutra practitioners, and it is very important.
The source of this Changsheng soil is the fertile land of thousands of miles where the Tianzun’s body is located. Tianfu is fertile.
However, these Changsheng soils need to nourish the Tianzun’s body. It is acceptable to dig a little, but Tianzun will definitely not be willing to dig too much.
So the "Yuanxi Yanwo" technique was created.
It refers to the various types of soil in the world. After being cultivated and fertilized by this great technique, they can have the characteristics of Changsheng soil and provide spiritual wood for advancement.
After hearing this, Chen Mobai was naturally overjoyed. He immediately wanted to practice with Zhuo Ming, his beloved disciple, to practice Yuanxi Yanwo, and then go to the Secret Realm of the Divine Tree to use the Dao Tree to reach the fourth level.
As long as there is an endless supply of immortal soil, and with the help of the great technique of pulling up the seedlings to help them grow, he can try to enlighten the Golden Sun Spiritual Trees of the Divine Tree Sect.
With Zhuo Ming and this auspicious cultivator, Chen Mobai estimated that at least three of the five third-level peak Golden Sun Spiritual Trees in Jumu Ridge could be promoted to immortal trees.
However, fourth-level spiritual trees need fourth-level spiritual veins to survive and grow. If there are really three, Chen Mobai plans to plant one in Beiyuan City to suppress the rising fourth-level spiritual veins here.
One plant in Liujia Mountain, where the fourth-level spiritual vein has been weakening since Chen Mobai took away the mountain-suppressing stone.
Later, they took the fourth-level Chongxu Xianzhi from Jumuling, and the disciples of the Spiritual Veins and Formation Departments of Shenmu Sect performed formations day and night to gather spirits and suppress spirits, so that they could barely maintain the quality of the fourth-level spiritual veins.
So if it is really developed into a third-level spiritual field to plant the Big Sun Purple Rice, it may be a good thing for Shenmu Sect. By dispersing this fourth-level spiritual vein, the disciples of the Spiritual Veins and Formation Departments in Liujia Mountain can be freed.
However, if there is a fourth-level longevity wood to suppress it, it will be a permanent solution.
Shenmu Sect also has a branch courtyard in Tianpeng Mountain, which is also a fourth-level spiritual vein, but the five-cornered ancient maple there is almost dead, and most of the spiritual veins have been dispersed and developed into a third-level medicinal field.
Only the top of the mountain where the five-cornered ancient maple is located can barely maintain the fourth-level spiritual vein.
If he could enlighten a third immortal wood, Chen Mobai planned to use it to replace the dying five-pointed ancient maple. In addition to being able to preserve this rare fourth-level spiritual vein, he also wanted to use this spiritual plant for experiments in the future.
After all, this five-pointed ancient maple is a rare one with more fire attributes than earth and wood attributes. If it can be saved in the future, the immortal gate has announced the art of blooming flowers in an instant, and he might be able to use this spiritual plant to comprehend the realm of transformation.
Even if it really can't be saved, Chen Mobai can use the fourth-level tree planting art after his initiation to turn the five-pointed ancient maple into seeds and replant it.
Anyway, he has just formed a pill now, and it is still early for transformation.
With Zhuo Ming, this precious disciple, even if he replants, with the original foundation, it is estimated that it will take only a few hundred years to cultivate it to the fourth-level upper grade.
So after Chen Mobai opened this Yuanxi Yanwo art, he was very happy.
After communicating with Granny Ming, he wanted to put down the Jindan cultivator of Xingtian Dao Sect and rush back to Jumuling.
Fortunately, Granny Ming saw his joy and immediately told him the most critical point of this great technique.
That is, a handful of real longevity soil is needed.
Bury it in the soil that needs to be cultivated, and then the cultivators who practice Yuanxi Yanwo will use the real longevity soil as the source to slowly improve the surrounding soil and transform it into longevity soil of the same nature.
But these longevity soils cultivated by the great technique cannot be used as soil seeds.
After the disappearance of Tianzun and the entire Changsheng Sect, Granny Ming didn't know whether there was still the real longevity soil that was used to support Tianzun's body in the current Tianhe Realm!
When he heard this, Chen Mobai immediately remembered what Zhuo Ming had opened from the magic tree after he built his foundation.
It happened to be a handful of longevity soil.
Chen Mobai estimated that it was the one who could be placed in the magic tree so solemnly by the Changsheng Sect!
After thinking it through, he couldn't help but regret it. Fu Zongjue had already taken the handful of immortal soil to refine earth and wood crystal sand. Maybe there was still a little, but it was definitely not enough for seeding.
Why didn't he know the real use of the immortal soil at that time!
But after being annoyed, Chen Mobai immediately reacted.
Zhuo Ming was able to open it, which meant that there was real immortal soil in the magic tree. Other foundation-building cultivators in the sect would definitely be able to open it if they tried it many times.
It happened that at that time, the ten-year sect competition had just ended a few years ago. With the sufficient supply of foundation-building pills in Shenmu Sect, eight more foundation-building cultivators were added.
It was a pity that among these eight, only five succeeded in building the foundation in one go.
And among the five, only one practiced the earth attribute technique, named Xiong Chuanfeng.
But Chen Mobai was lucky under the auspicious blessing of the Danfeng Chaoyangtu.
This only one just opened the immortal soil he needed.
Chen Mobai did not treat him unfairly, and directly recorded 100,000 points of sect contribution for him.
The handful of immortal soil that Xiong Chuanfeng took out from the secret realm of the sacred tree was directly buried by Chen Mobai in Liujia Mountain.
He also considered burying it in Beiyuan City.
But Chen Mobai's main focus must be on cultivation. If he is asked to pay attention to the changes in the soil all the time, it would be a bit of putting the cart before the horse.
And with Zhuo Ming at Liujia Mountain, he can rest assured.
This precious disciple is very fast in understanding the magic of earth attributes.
After the master and disciple practiced together, Zhuo Ming was only two days slower than Chen Mobai in understanding Yuanxi Yanwo.
And because Yuanxi Yanwo is the same as the essence of Earth Mother Gong, after Zhuo Ming practiced it, he quickly cultivated it to the third level with the mother energy of all things.
And this great art only requires the fourth level when the real longevity soil is buried as the soil seed at the beginning.
Zhuo Ming has no problem with subsequent cultivation and maintenance.
If the soil around Liujia Mountain can be improved to the fourth level of longevity soil in the future, it will also be of great benefit to the cultivation of Dayi purple rice.
The only flaw is that upgrading the longevity soil requires a huge amount of earth energy infusion.
If it is really released to improve, the desert oasis where Liujia Mountain is located may turn into dust all over the sky.
That is why Zhuo Ming is even more needed to control the technique of Yuanxi Yanwo.
Chen Mobai plans to test it here in Liujia Mountain first, and after confirming that there is no problem, he will prepare to improve the soil in Beiyuan City.
And there is another biggest problem, there is no soil for longevity.
Chen Mobai also has a solution to this, that is, to relax the restrictions and allow other sect monks who did not succeed in taking the foundation-building pill once to enter the secret realm of the sacred tree.
He has done several surveys on this matter, and there are both supporters and opponents.
Those who agree are naturally those who have not entered the secret realm of the sacred tree after building the foundation.
And those who oppose are those who have already entered.
Chen Mobai also asked Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue, but the two of them did not comment on this, saying that the head brother can make the decision himself, and they have no objection!
Opening the secret realm of the sacred tree can increase the strength of the foundation-building monks of the Shenmu Sect, but it is also possible that the treasures originally reserved for later generations will be consumed in advance.
Chen Mobai was originally hesitant. After all, Xuanxiao Dao Palace, the expected threat, was now somewhat overwhelmed, and there was no need to rush to strengthen the sect's strength.
But after opening the great art of "Yuanxi Yanwo", he felt that it was time to slowly promote this new policy.
It just needed to be packaged well so that those opponents would think it was not impossible.
In this regard, Chen Mobai proposed that if the sect was willing to go to Hongguo for free sand control for ten years during the foundation building, then they could get the opportunity to enter the secret realm of the sacred tree.
However, the spiritual objects and skills obtained in the secret realm needed to be reported to the sect truthfully after they came out.
If the spiritual objects were useful to the sect, they would be handed over to the sect, but they would be compensated with a certain contribution or spiritual stones.
After Chen Mobai and Yue Zutao discussed it, they made a list.
The corresponding compensation prices were listed for the spiritual objects that had been opened from the magic tree, such as the sap of the immortal tree, the soil of immortality, the Qingyang fire, the fruit of the immortal tree, the green wood spirit heart, etc.
Yuanxiyanwo (Yuán xí yǎn wò), from "Zhao Gong Jian Li Wang Mie Blabber", is interpreted as referring to different types of land.
Yuán: wide and flat
Xi: low-lying and humid (xiyangping)
Yan: low and flat
Wo: there are rivers for irrigation
