Chapter 5 Senior Brother Ling Yun

Back in the courtyard, it was already late.

Lin Mu looked at the bright moon rising in the east and decided to practice outside at night so that the Xuanyue pendant could absorb the moonlight.

Taking out the jade slip of "Basic Five Elements Techniques" from his arms, Lin Mu injected spiritual power into it and began to study it carefully.

The five planting techniques in this jade slip, "Green Water Technique", "Genjin Technique", "Plant Technique", "Thick Soil Technique", and "Red Fire Technique", each have their own functions.

The first one Lin Mu wanted to learn was "Green Water Technique".

Water is extremely important for spiritual herbs and medicines. If "Green Water Technique" is practiced to a high level, not only will it not be a problem to irrigate with rain, but the rain will also contain a lot of spiritual energy, which can promote the growth of spiritual herbs.

Lin Mu pinched his hands and tried to condense the cloud mentioned in "Green Water Technique".

Clouds are the basis of "Green Water Technique". If you can't condense clouds, you will never learn "Green Water Technique".

But Lin Mu has no experience in techniques, and he can't condense clouds anyway.

After practicing until midnight, Lin Mu's fingers were sore from pinching the seal, but the cloud did not appear.

Although Lin Mu was very tired, he still refused to rest, and there was a determination in his eyes.

After reading "The Secret of Green Water" again and again, chewing every sentence in it several times, he had a glimmer of enlightenment in his heart.

At midnight, the moon disappeared into the clouds, and it was dark all around.

Suddenly, a ball of white mist appeared in the darkness. A layer of light water mist floated in Lin Mu's palm.

The water mist was like light smoke, hazy and unclear.

Lin Mu was delighted, and after studying for a long time, he finally condensed this water mist. But he couldn't be sure whether this was the cloud mentioned in "The Secret of Green Water".

After releasing his ten fingers and completing the spell, the layer of water mist slowly fell to the ground, just moistening the ground.

This was still a long way from irrigating the spiritual field. From the "Green Water Art", Lin Mu learned that this "Green Water Art" has three levels. Now he has just reached the first level, the stage of condensing clouds. If you want to use the "Green Water Art" for practical purposes, you still need to practice hard, at least to the second level.

Lin Mu's hands did not stop, and the art was performed one by one, and groups of water mist fell to the ground, and the land in front of him was wet.

The moonlight once again passed through the clouds and sprinkled into the courtyard, and the courtyard was bright, as bright as day.

Lin Mu's eyes fell on the fish pond. The moonlight illuminated the fish pond brightly, and the bottom of the pond had long been dry. Lin Mu had an idea and simply poured all the rainwater condensed by the "Green Water Art" into the fish pond.

As Lin Mu continued to practice, the cloud gradually grew larger and was already the size of a bowl.

One "Green Water Art" could wet an area the size of a bowl at the bottom of the fish pond. But until dawn, Lin Mu's "Green Water Art" only wet the bottom of the fish pond once.

If you want to fill the ten-foot square fish pond with water, it is still out of reach.

The morning sun shines through the sparse leaves on Lin Mu's face. The mottled shadow makes Lin Mu's face have clear lines and looks resolute.

Lin Mu is tireless. Clouds keep flying out of his hands, sprinkling rain. Although the cloud is still the size of a bowl, it is much denser than before. It is white and condensed with a lot of water vapor.

Suddenly, a melodious bell sound comes from a distance.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

The bell sound is crisp and pleasant, echoing in the valley.

Lin Mu stopped what he was doing, washed up in a hurry, and ran towards Wangyun Peak.

At the same time, dozens of figures rushed out from many courtyards of Xifeng, all targeting Wangyun Peak. There is also a senior brother riding on a popular paper crane. It seems to be slow, but it flies to Wangyun Peak at a much faster speed than Lin Mu, and it is very leisurely.

Lin Mu ran in the mountains for half an incense stick of time, and finally arrived at Wangyun Peak panting.

He rushed into Wangxian Hall, which was noisy. There were no less than a hundred people, all of whom were outer disciples like Lin Mu. Lin Mu found a cushion to sit down and breathed heavily.

Sitting at the top was a young man, about twenty years old, with a white face, sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, and a green cloth robe. He was very different from the hundreds of people sitting in the hall.

Senior Brother Lingyun, the fifth inner disciple. He often gave lectures to outer disciples, imparting some magic formulas and knowledge of refining. Lin Mu learned the "Nine Directions Heart Method" from listening to the lectures here.

Every once in a while, Senior Brother Lingyun would teach some methods of cultivation. Whenever Lin Mu had time, he would come to listen to the lectures and benefited a lot from them.

Lingyun coughed lightly, and the whole audience suddenly became silent, and you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone was eagerly waiting, holding their breath, looking at Ling Yun on the stage, afraid of disturbing his train of thought.

Ling Yun really lived up to everyone's expectations, and said slowly: "How are you, fellow disciples? Today I want to talk about the method of refining weapons. I hope you will listen attentively and don't waste your time."

His voice was not loud, but his cultivation was profound, and it was clearly audible to everyone, as if whispering in their ears.

"The way of refining weapons is profound and extensive. If you want to master it, it will not be a one-day job. Today I will tell you the basics of refining weapons. In order to make you understand, I will now refine a ground spirit hoe and demonstrate it a little bit."

After that, he stopped looking at the disciples below the stage and fiddled with a pile of odds and ends on the table.

Lin Mu watched Ling Yun's every move carefully, without blinking, for fear of missing any important link.

Ling Yun's movements were smooth and unhurried. A bronze ingot in his hand quickly took shape and turned into a hoe. He kept moving his hands, and his spiritual power flashed. The spell in his hand fell on the hoe body, engraved the formation, and casually embedded the spiritual stone into it. Then he took out the elm pole from the side and inserted it into the hoe body, and a ground spirit hoe was refined.

The whole process was smooth and gorgeous, without any drag. The people below were amazed.

Although Lin Mu did not blink, there were still many places that he did not understand. Don't look at Brother Ling Yun's current refining of the weapon as smooth as flowing water. He didn't know how much hard work he had done in private, and he admired Brother Ling Yun very much in his heart. He tilted his ears and waited for Brother Ling Yun to continue.

Senior Brother Ling Yun did not disappoint him. Looking at the puzzled junior brother below, he explained: "There are three major links in refining equipment, which need to be paid attention to. The first is to shape the materials, the second is to carve into the formation, and the third is to embed the spirit stone. All of this seems simple, but doing it yourself will give you different insights, which will also be of great benefit to your cultivation.

Now I will tell you in detail the key points and some basic formations..."

The lecture lasted for three hours, and everyone listened carefully, and no one stood up and left.

In the entire Qianyu Sword Sect, only Senior Brother Ling Yun would be so selfless, caring for the outer disciples and teaching them everything he knew. Therefore, everyone also reciprocated and listened attentively, not letting Ling Yun down.

After the lecture, Ling Yun did not say much, smiled and signaled to everyone, and left the stage gorgeously.

The people around him left one after another, and Lin Mu sat there indifferently, quietly experiencing everything he had learned.

Only after he confirmed that he had memorized all the key points did he stand up and walk out of the hall.

Squinting at the glaring sunlight, Lin Mu knew that this lecture was of great significance to him.
