Chapter 111 Cultivating the Spiritual Tea Tree

"For me, the practice of cutting off the life finger is more difficult than the annual ring technique."

After Zhou Changwang got the practice method of cutting off the life finger, he started practicing immediately.

But two hours passed, but I still couldn't get in.

This is not because the birth-interception finger is better than the annual ring technique, but because when he practiced the annual ring technique, Zhou Changwang had the foundation of the birth-inducing technique, and the rune structure had been simplified to the extreme, which saved him countless hard work.

But the cut-off finger is different.

This is a completely unfamiliar spell.

He needs to get familiar with it bit by bit and outline it step by step.

Fortunately, Zhou Changwang also has a lot of experience in practicing various spells.

At the third hour, I finally got started.

But at this time, with the moon in the sky, he gave up on drawing the talismans, opened the small spirit gathering array directly, and entered into practice.

In the blink of an eye, a few days passed.

Spells: Annual Ring Technique (Xiao Cheng 32/400), Cutting Finger (Xiao Cheng 1/400)

Look at these two spells on the attribute panel.

Zhou Changwang's face couldn't help but reveal a trace of satisfaction.

After this period of hard training, he finally mastered these two spells to a small level of success.

Xiao Cheng's annual ring technique has not only greatly reduced the casting time, from the original nine breaths to the current three breaths, but its effect has also been greatly improved compared to when he started.

A single growth ring technique is directly equivalent to the fifteen days of normal growth of a red leaf tea tree.

In other words, if one annual ring technique is used, the spiritual soil around the red leaf tea tree will be sucked dry, and the second one will no longer be able to be used.

And the effect of cutting off the fingers is terrifying.

During this period of time, he has been using the weeds and spiritual grass in the spiritual field to use this raw finger.

A cutting finger came down, and the lush and vigorous weeds and spiritual grasses instantly became withered and lifeless.

In his hand, drops of green 'vital spirit fluid' condensed.

Just a pity.

The weeds around his spiritual field were almost sucked dry by him, but perhaps because the 'vitality' was too thin, not much 'vitality spirit fluid' could be produced at all.

So much so that he had cultivated his life-cutting finger to a small level, and even a bottle of 'vital spirit liquid' could not be filled up. There was only a shallow layer, equivalent to one-third of the whole bottle.

"If you want to fill up a whole patch of vitality spiritual liquid, it is estimated that it will take nearly a thousand times to amputate the fingers, and it will also need to be the kind of vitality spiritual plant."

Zhou Changwang resisted the urge to place his cutting finger on the Hui Ling grass, and clicked on a spiritual bamboo that was growing a little crookedly.

With one finger pointing down, the branches and leaves of the three-foot-tall spiritual bamboo turned yellow at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the entire branch shriveled, sunken, and lost its vitality.

And in his hand, a drop of green spiritual liquid the size of a thumb also condensed.

It's the vitality liquid.

"This is just a small-level cut-off finger, but it can completely cut off the vitality of this spiritual bamboo that has been growing for nearly two years."

Zhou Changwang sighed with emotion, and then quickly walked to the red leaf tea tree, took advantage of the situation, and used his cutting fingers to plant it into it.

In an instant, the already vigorously growing red-leaf tea tree became even more lush and green, as if the whole tree was glowing.

Then, Zhou Changwang quickly used the annual ring technique.

One way, two ways, three ways...

After five steps, the spiritual soil at the foot of the red-leaf tea tree became dry and cracked, showing a lack of spiritual energy.

Seeing this, Zhou Changwang didn't take it seriously.

Knowing that this is the result of the spiritual plant having completely absorbed the 'vital spirit liquid' just now, and the supply was insufficient, it began to absorb the spiritual energy in the spiritual soil.

Then, while using the Spiritual Rain Technique, he flipped his hand and took out a pill bottle.

What is contained in this elixir bottle is exactly the vitality spirit liquid he extracted during this period.

Using the technique of cutting raw fingers, cut out one-third of the spiritual liquid in the bottle, and then quickly pour it into the Hongye Ling tea tree.

After sensing that the spiritual tea tree was rapidly absorbing the vitality liquid, he began to perform the annual ring technique again.

One way, two ways, three ways...

He didn't stop until fifteen times.

Because by this time, the vitality spirit fluid in the spirit tea tree had been completely exhausted, and it once again began to absorb the spirit energy in the spirit soil.

At the same time, after his frantic casting of spells, the red leaf tea tree, which was already half a man tall, began to grow rapidly.

Almost at a speed visible to the naked eye, it is growing taller, and the branches and leaves are spreading out, tea leaves and buds are growing, and even its rhizomes are constantly extending and growing.

Grow up instantly.

It grew into a tall tea tree with lush branches and leaves.

"Twenty small-level annual ring techniques before and after are equivalent to the three hundred days it takes to grow naturally.

Coupled with the previous cultivation time, this spiritual tea tree seems to be a spiritual tea tree with a life span of one year. "

Zhou Changwang looked at the spiritual tea tree again at this time, with a trace of satisfaction on his face.

The value of Ling tea trees with red leaves every year is actually quite high.

The whole tree can be harvested for about ten kilograms, and the dried tea can be made into two or three kilograms, and can be sold in the market for hundreds of pieces of low-grade spiritual stone.

The spiritual tea from the second-grade spiritual tea tree has a sweet taste and endless aftertaste, and it also contains rich spiritual energy, which has the functions of calming the mind, nourishing the mind, and enlightening.

The value is certainly high.

The key is to harvest it every year and get it every year.

At this time, it was growing every year, and Zhou Changwang started picking directly.

Not a single tea leaf was spared, and all were plucked out. In the end, fifteen kilograms of spiritual tea leaves were obtained. They were roasted with the fireball technique, and finally more than three kilograms of dry tea was obtained.

Keep it carefully!

Zhou Changwang took out another bottle of vitality spirit liquid.

This bottle of vitality spirit liquid is one of the two bottles obtained from the rich woman Gong Baixue.

According to her, a bottle of vitality spirit liquid, worth fifty yuan of low-grade spirit stones, can help the growth of spiritual plants for two to three years.

Zhou Changwang planned to cultivate the spiritual tea tree. The annual ring technique alone was not enough to suck up the spiritual energy in his backyard. He could only rely on this vitality liquid.

So, he used his life-cutting fingers again to absorb the vitality spirit liquid, and then injected it into the spirit tea tree.

When the spiritual tea tree was fully absorbed, he began to use the annual ring technique.

One after another, the annual ring technique continues to fall on the Lingcha tree, continuously increasing its size and increasing its growth years.

Pieces of tea buds also grew rapidly as his growth ring technique was activated.

Until the vitality spirit fluid was exhausted, he absorbed and injected it again.

Repeatedly.

Crazy cultivation!

Soon, after 30% of the vitality spirit liquid was consumed, the age of the Hongyeling tea tree increased by another year.

If you cut the cross section of the Lingcha tree, you can clearly see that there are two growth rings inside, which means that the tree is two years old.

The second wave of picking has officially begun.

Then the third wave.

However, after the third wave, he discovered that after all the tea leaves of the Hongye Ling tea tree were picked, the spiritual energy required for it to grow tea leaves again would be much larger, which would greatly slow down its growth rate.

So starting from the fourth wave, he stopped picking spiritual tea leaves, and even began to prune the branches and leaves of the tea tree to control its growth direction and size in order to save spiritual energy.

The conditions were limited, so he mainly focused on its annual growth.

So soon, the second bottle of vitality spirit liquid was consumed by him.

"Seven years old."

Looking at the red-leaf tea tree in front of him, Zhou Changwang was filled with emotion.

At this moment.

Its rhizome has extended to more than one foot around.

The tree is seven feet tall, with three main branches in a triangular shape, supporting each of the small branches, on which are pieces of red spiritual tea leaves that emit crystal light.

“The tree is seven years old, which is still very early.

Based on the three-year growth period of a bottle of Vitality Spiritual Liquid, if you want it to grow to a hundred years, you will need at least thirty one bottles. In fact, thirty one bottles are far from enough.

Because the further you go, the more vital spirit liquid the spirit tea tree will need to grow..."

Zhou Changwang calculated silently, feeling troubled again.

Cultivating a century-old red leaf tea tree was indeed not as simple as he had imagined.

Thirty bottles of vitality spirit liquid is not expensive, only 1,550 low-grade spiritual stones. Even in the later stages, if the vitality spirit liquid required is greatly increased, it should not exceed too much.

At worst, just go out and intercept the vitality liquid by yourself.

Thinking of this, Zhou Changwang couldn't help but cast his gaze under the cliff again.

Below the cliff is a shrub forest with many spiritual plants, spiritual trees, and even spiritual trees.

Although most of them are of lower grade, there are also spiritual trees that are more than a hundred years old.

Thinking of this, Zhou Changwang hurriedly came to the secret cultivation room, lifted a floor directly, and an underground passage immediately appeared.

This underground passage was specially dug by him because he felt that he was in danger before.

The passage continues downward, and the exit is just above the cliff, only about twenty feet above the bottom of the cliff.

At this time, he went all the way down to the exit area, moved a huge stone slab, and looked down. The mountain forest was deserted. Only some spiritual farmers could be vaguely seen in the distance working in the spiritual fields at the foot of Changling Mountain. .

"At such a height, it's not a big problem for me."

Zhou Changwang muttered, but to be on the safe side, he took a rope and slid all the way down to a position three feet above the ground. Then, with a flash of inspiration, he used the light body technique.

The body jumped slightly and quickly landed on the ground.

"Compared to the place above, the spiritual energy here is much thinner, and it's not much different from the outside of Fang City."

Silently feeling the aura of heaven and earth around him, Zhou Changwang stepped forward, and soon he saw a spiritual plant.

It was a blood-sucking vine that wrapped directly around a century-old tree. It was so tightly entangled that the old tree was dented several inches and almost torn off completely.

Zhou Changwang looked relaxed, and with a flash of spiritual power, he directly used his cutting finger, and then moved it slightly above the blood-sucking vine.

In an instant, the vitality that belonged to the blood-sucking vine was extracted by him in an instant and condensed into drops of green spiritual liquid.

One drop, two drops, three drops...

After five drops, the blood-sucking vine lost its vitality, completely withered and weak, and its branches and leaves also withered and turned yellow, never regaining its previous green color.

He stretched out his hand and patted the blood-sucking vine, directly cutting it into sections, like a piece of rotten wood, extremely loose.

"This is the amputation finger.

Cutting off the vitality means the death of the spirit.

With one finger, no matter how spiritual the plant is, it will be sucked dry. "

Zhou Changwang sighed and quickly put the five drops of vitality spirit liquid extracted into a jade bottle.

A hundred drops of vitality spirit liquid make a bottle.

It only takes twenty more vampire vines like this to make up one bottle, which is not difficult at all.

Then, his eyes quickly fell on another spiritual tree.

This is a spiritual tree that is at least thirty years old. Although it is not tall, it is very strong.

At this time, he did not care about many things and quickly used another finger of cutting life.

One drop, two drops, three drops...

After seven drops, the spell dissipated.

But it does not mean that only seven drops of vitality can be cut out from this spiritual tree, but the finger of cutting life at the small success stage can only extract seven drops from it.

Zhou Changwang did not care about this and used the finger of cutting life again.

Seven drops flowed out again.

But the whole spiritual tree also became extremely sluggish, and the leaves became extremely withered and yellow. If you shake it gently, the leaves will fall.

"Cut off the soul, leave half.

After three to five years, this spiritual tree will recover again."

Zhou Changwang also knew the truth that too much is as bad as too little. Except for the more harmful spiritual plants such as blood-sucking vines, when extracting spiritual wood, try to leave a line as much as possible and do not cut off all their vitality.

In this way, he wandered in the forest.

He kept casting spells all the way.

Then, before the spiritual energy was about to run out, he slapped the spiritual insect bag, and a flying insect rushed out immediately. He ordered it to warn the surroundings, and Panxi sat down and began to practice to recover.

This flying insect was the golden armor king flying cicada that he had controlled with the control seal before.

After this period of feeding, its entire body has grown a circle. Not only are the eight claws on its front limbs gradually showing sharpness, but when its wings are spread, they are like blades, with a special metallic luster.

When it flew out, it was very fast. It could fly three feet away in just a flash. It was an excellent "guardian". Ordinary low-level monsters would not be its opponent.

After two incense sticks, Zhou Changwang's spiritual power recovered, and he immediately began to collect "vitality spirit fluid" again.

Two hours later.

Zhou Changwang returned to the bottom of the cliff again.

With a flash of spiritual light on his body, he used the light body technique and the flying body technique one after another, then paused and quickly picked it out.

With just a slight flash, he reached a height of about three meters, and then he stepped on his feet and climbed up another two meters. After one step, he took another step.

After seven steps, the entrance to the passage was within reach.

He flashed and jumped in.

"The light body technique, the flying body technique, and the physical training technique of Seven Stars Stepping on the Moon, can really allow me to easily climb this twenty-meter cliff and enter this underground passage."

After standing still, Zhou Changwang couldn't help but smile.

Twenty meters high, ordinary cultivators, unless they master flying swords and other flying techniques, it would be difficult to climb.

As for the harvest from this descent?

Five bottles!

Five bottles of vitality spirit liquid.

"If calculated in spirit stones, it would be 250 low-grade spirit stones."

Zhou Changwang was happy.

Although because it was the first time to go down the cliff, there were many spirit trees that had not been harvested, but such a harvest also satisfied him.

Five bottles at a time, ten times or so, wouldn't it be fifty bottles?

There is no need to go outside to buy vitality liquid.

Self-production and self-sale can bring forth the red leaf spiritual tea tree.

So, for the next period of time, he would spend two hours every day, running down the cliff, intercepting vitality liquid, and then all of it was used to cultivate the red leaf spiritual tea tree.

As a result, in just five days, the red leaf spiritual tea tree was cultivated to a tree age of thirty years.

However, after reaching the tree age of thirty years, Zhou Changwang also discovered that the spiritual energy required by this spiritual tea tree was becoming more and more huge.

Later, one bottle of vitality liquid was not enough for it to grow for a year, and it often took two bottles, or even three bottles, to meet its growth needs for a year.

Zhou Changwang was helpless about this, but he also knew that this was a very normal thing.

Because no matter what kind of spiritual plant it is, as long as the age reaches a certain level, the amount of spiritual energy it normally needs to absorb and exhale every day will be ten times or a hundred times that of when it was first born.

Naturally, the vitality liquid that needs to be consumed will also increase significantly.

Therefore, in the next ten days, Zhou Changwang only increased the age of the red leaf tea tree by fifteen years, bringing it to forty-five years.

It is also worth mentioning that the vitality spirit liquid under the cliff is becoming more and more difficult to obtain.

In the past, five bottles could be obtained in two hours, but now it often takes three hours, or even four hours, to collect them all.

As the time spent increased, he gradually felt that it was not worth the loss.

Decided to postpone this action.

Of course.

In addition to the red leaf tea tree, Zhou Changwang would not forget the batch of Huiling grass when he was busy every day.

There were a total of four thousand Huiling grass in the five-acre spiritual field. He covered them with the annual ring technique three times a day, and their growth rate was also very fast.

At this moment, they have grown to more than two feet and are about to reach the three-foot stage where they can mature.

The effect of gathering spiritual energy is gradually revealed, which greatly increases the concentration of spiritual energy in the entire backyard.

And this is actually the reason why the red leaf tea tree can grow normally.

In fact,

Gradually, Zhou Changwang also discovered that the Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree was, after all, a low-level spiritual plant of the second grade, and the amount of spiritual energy required for its growth could only be maintained by the second-grade spiritual field.

Although the first-grade upper-level spiritual field was good, it was still a bit difficult to grow a low-level spiritual plant of the second grade.

Now, it was just right.

It also saved Zhou Changwang a lot of effort.

Otherwise, he would have to open that small spiritual gathering array to gather spiritual energy for the Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree.

…

On this day, Zhou Changwang finally finished his daily busy work and walked out of the yard again.

This time, it was not that he needed to go out on his own initiative, but seven days ago, Fuyuanju's boss Wei Xingyuan came to Zhou Changwang in person to buy finished talismans.

At that time, more than 20 finished talismans were taken from Zhou Changwang, most of which were golden shield talismans, priced at 85 low-grade spiritual stones each, and Zhou Changwang gave him 10.

The remaining 10 or so were thunder and lightning talismans and fireball talismans, which were slightly cheaper, but also priced at 20 low-grade spiritual stones each.

This amount of talismans was obviously not enough to satisfy Wei Xingyuan.

Because as he said before.

In addition to the talisman quota assigned to him by the Bai family, people from the Chen family also came.

Moreover, the Chen family's requirements were higher, requiring Fuyuanju to trade a full 100 finished talismans every month, and the Bai and Chen Liang families together had 150, which put a lot of pressure on him.

Seeing that the agreed time was approaching, he had to go to the door to buy.

He also agreed to help him refine 15 more finished talismans in seven days, that is, today, and after paying off the 1,200 low-grade spiritual stones for more than 20 talismans, he also gave a deposit of 500 low-grade spiritual stones.

For such a generous boss, Zhou Changwang would keep his promise.

Of course, in fact, the number of finished talismans Zhou Changwang has is far more than this.

Under the function of the attribute panel, as the number of talismans he makes increases, the probability of refining finished talismans also increases.

Even if he sold more than 20 finished talismans before, he still has 70 finished talismans in his hand.

Enough to fulfill the agreement with Wei Xingyuan.

So soon, Zhou Changwang came to Fuyuanju.

According to the agreement, the remaining 15 finished talismans were traded.

After deducting the previous deposit, he also had 200 more low-grade spiritual stones in his hand.

Then, he sold the talismans in batches to other talisman shops.

However, there was a small accident during the period. That is, the owner of a talisman shop suddenly took out a finished talisman, indicating that he had traded it from the talisman shop. The talisman pattern was very similar to Zhou Changwang's talisman making method.

Zhou Changwang did not comment on this.

Fortunately, before he entered the talisman shop, he had used the skill of changing his appearance and shrinking his bones to change his body shape. So when he saw that the shop owner had the intention to find out his identity, he turned around and left without hesitation, and naturally gave up the idea of ​​interacting with the owner again.

Of course, because of this, he took twice as long as usual to complete the talisman sales this time.

Counting the gains from Wei Xingyuan's previous door-to-door transaction, the number of spiritual stones Zhou Changwang harvested this time also exceeded 3,000 for the first time, reaching 3,925.

This is due to the fact that Zhou Changwang only drew the high-value defensive talisman Golden Light Shield Talisman and the attacking talisman Thunder and Lightning Talisman and Fireball Talisman during this period.

In addition, as the conflict between the Bai and Chen families in the market intensified, the price of talismans continued to rise.

This allowed him to make a fortune.

However, he did not keep much of this spiritual stone.

He entered the Liufang Pavilion, Shuiyun Pavilion and Bai's Business, and finally even went to the Lingzhi Hall to buy all the vitality spiritual liquid on the market.

In the end, he obtained 86 bottles of vitality spiritual liquid.

After all, he still planned to cultivate the red leaf spiritual tea tree to more than a hundred years in one go.

Although the spiritual stones spent on this were not small, he himself paid more than 300 low-grade spiritual stones.

But he thought it was all worth it.

Because during this period, when he was preparing the red leaf spiritual tea leaves that he had collected before, he really felt the peculiarity of its efficacy.

Not only can it calm the mind, but it also has the effect of nourishing the mind and enlightenment. From time to time, inspiration can trigger him, which can benefit him a lot.

This is the red leaf spiritual tea leaves of one or two years.

What if it is a hundred years?

Is it better?

Does it have the legendary function of increasing one’s spiritual power or even directly leading to enlightenment?
