Chapter 6, The Inspiration Surges Like Tides

All are nine

The brilliance surges forth, like a moth darting towards the flame

Grandfather, the steward Hong did not speak incorrectly; you are a kind person

The man is full of pride, while Jiang Yuebai furrows her brow in confusion

[Cultivation Method] Qi Induction Technique (28/45)

She swallowed her saliva, quickly steadied her mind, and regulated her breathing according to the Qi induction technique

You meditate to draw in energy, focusing your mind and spirit, as the spiritual energy flows continuously, increasing your proficiency in energy drawing by 1

She still wanted to continue, but her whole body felt inexplicably itchy and swollen, her mind was restless, and she found it difficult to concentrate, forcing her to stop.

Everywhere is impressive! My grandfather cultivates more land than others, and his millet is taller and fuller than theirs. I just saw others trying to create rain, but they are far inferior to my grandfather!

Tao Fengnian remained unperturbed, eating pickled vegetables and plain rice in a leisurely manner

Furthermore, the daily rising of the golden crow and the midnight hour are the times when the dual energies of yin and yang are at their peak. One must not be negligent in cultivating and drawing in energy during these moments. When first embarking on the path, one should meditate for one hour and then take a brief rest, progressing gradually. Excessive effort can be counterproductive. Do you remember this?

In addition, she also saw the yellow earth spirit energy beneath the rice fields mixed with the white gold spirit energy

As long as she exerts five to ten times more effort

At such a young age, even with five spiritual roots, there are endless possibilities for the future, and he...

According to this calculation, Xie Jingshan only needs 9 points of spiritual energy to enter the first layer of Qi training, while I require four times more than him

Jiang Yuebai smiled as soon as he saw it

Before she could adjust her breathing in harmony with the *illustration* book, two clusters of ethereal light descended from the tree and infused into her body

Her brows and eyes are smooth, her breath is long and gentle, sitting cross-legged in silence, with both hands resting on her lower abdomen, only her disheveled hair dances in the wind

A small courtyard with blue bricks, and a stone table under the tree

Jiang Yuebai wiped his face with his sleeve and immediately sat cross-legged in a posture of five hearts facing the sky, attempting to sense the spiritual energy

The fierce wind gradually subsides, the river moon becomes restless in the heart, and the leaves suddenly fall all around.

The sound of commanding authority suddenly came, and Jiang Yuebai turned her head to see a man with a deer-like head and rat-like eyes standing at the gate of the courtyard, wearing a servant's token just like hers.

Hong Tao must be mistaken; with such talent and comprehension, how could it possibly be a five-element root? It is likely that this is a natural spiritual body that is close to nature, and the initial display of drawing in energy is merely like this.

Grandfather just said that he is the highest-ranking person in Huaxi Valley, how dare this person ask Grandfather to do work for him

This world, entirely composed of five elements of spiritual energy, left Jiang Yuebai in awe. Is there really so much spiritual energy in Huaxi Valley?

A pair of chopsticks reaches for the pickles, only to be pressed down by another pair of chopsticks

The river moonlight glimmers, with rice grains stuck to the corner of her mouth, her eyes wide open in astonishment. Is grandfather giving her guidance?

A gentle breeze caressed the delicate strands of hair on the young girl's fair face, her eyes slightly closed, eyelashes fluttering. Amidst the rustling of the leaves, she suddenly beheld a wondrous realm.

The surrounding spiritual energy continuously surged towards her, enveloping her like starlight, making her shine brilliantly even in broad daylight

Comparing to last night when I was extremely cautious, barely daring to let my breath fluctuate too much, and only managed to absorb three clusters of spiritual light throughout the entire night, at this moment, without doing anything, two clusters of spiritual light have already flown over. This difference has left Jiang Yuebai so excited that his scalp tingles

At this speed, she will be able to step into the first layer of Qi training in no more than one day

The river moon turned its white eyes and walked backward to the front, "Grandfather, I find you particularly impressive"

With each breath, the treetops sway, and green light glimmers like snowflakes drifting down, scattering gracefully

Jiang Yuebai silently drew in his breath, while Tao Fengnian quietly observed. Even after the sun had reached its zenith and passed noon, there was still no sign of a breakthrough from Jiang Yuebai.

The river moon shone white, filling her heart with joy. As she opened her eyes and reached up to catch the falling leaves above her head, she noticed Tao Fengnian standing beside her, having appeared there at some unknown time. He waved his hand to retract a small flag, dismantling the formation that had obstructed their investigation.

[ ... ... Proficiency in Air Drawing + 1 ]

From now on, apart from Lingmi, you are not allowed to consume anything else that is tainted by the mundane smoke and fire. If you can avoid taking elixirs, then do so, as expelling impurities from your body early on will be beneficial for your future cultivation

He has a single spiritual root with a value of 9, and he himself has four more spiritual roots, each with a value of 9. Isn't that more powerful than him

Tao Fengnian finally believed that she was indeed a five-element root; otherwise, she should have already entered the first layer of Qi training.

[Spiritual Roots] Five Elements Spiritual Roots ( Metal 9, Wood 9, Water 9, Fire 9, Earth 9 )

[Cultivation Method] Qi Induction Technique (3/45)

Originally, it only required 21 points to gather, but now due to the increase in the root value, it has changed to 45 points.

She fears that he will drive her away, so she tries hard to please him, while she herself is indulging in self-destruction and venting her anger on others as she waits for death

With the sweetest smile, speaking of the bitterest matters

Therefore, I do not lament my own misfortune; instead, I make a great effort to praise those ladies and young misses, comparing them favorably to others. When they are pleased, they reward me, and I have even received golden melon seeds. However, I nearly lost my life in the process.

Grandfather, I ... ...

Under the scorching sun, the red fire spirit energy gathers into a cloud, colliding with the faintly rising black water spirit energy in a dynamic interplay of emergence and decline

Last night, she barely saw six or seven groups after taking the Qi-boosting pill. Isn't the difference caused by the varying levels of root too significant?

Tao Fengnian carried a hoe and wore a bamboo hat as he walked ahead, while Jiang Yuebai, suppressing the urge to share his joy, quickly got up and followed closely behind.

How much has the root value actually improved just now

You meditate to draw in energy ... ... Energy drawing proficiency + 1

At such a young age, who did you learn this kind of flattery from

Tao Fengnian cast a glance at her, observing the increasingly radiant spiritual light surrounding her, akin to the scorching midday sun, searing to the heart

Jiang Yuebai took a breath and was not discouraged, having increased her training time fourfold, but she would surely be a hundred times stronger than Xie Jingshan in the future

Tao Fengnian's body was tense, instinctively shielding Jiang Yuebai behind him

That is the rice in the spiritual field, vast like the sea, boundless and endless, and behind it, the outline of the old locust tree is interwoven with scattered green spiritual lights.

Tao Fengnian left behind a formation that isolated the books, and he went alone to the rice fields with a hoe to remove weeds and pests

Jiang Yuebai looked at Tao Fengnian, only to find his eyes dim.

The fierce wind howled, causing the old locust tree's crown to tremble incessantly, its leaves swirling and fluttering around the small girl.

To gain something, one must make an effort; there are no free benefits in this world

The green waves undulate, like rivers rippling

Understood

Tao Fengnian's lips curled slightly, "Where does a village chief come from in the realm of immortals? However, you are not entirely wrong; they do indeed respect me, for I am the only Spirit Cultivator in Huaxi Valley, and my status is equivalent to that of an outer sect disciple"

So, he will not drive her away

Upon mentioning this, Tao Fengnian's expression darkened again. Hong Tao sent her here, intending for her to take her place.

Tao Fengnian felt a sudden tremor in his heart, only to find his mouth dry and his tongue parched, unable to close his jaw

The river moon smiles with a lively spirit, filled with genuine sincerity

However

Thus, at such a young age, she understands that the will of heaven is unpredictable and that one cannot defy destiny. It is precisely because of her youth that she dares to possess the courage to go against the heavens and defy fate, stirring the rhythms of heaven and earth

"What is a Spirit Farmer?" Jiang Yuebai asked curiously

Jiang Yuebai then discovered that there were already signs of human activity in the fields, quietly paying attention to this side. Song Peier, whom he had seen before, was standing not far away, their eyes meeting, both smiling and raising their eyebrows.

By meditating to draw in energy, your root value is enhanced, leading to a significant expansion of your spiritual perception, an increase in energy affinity, and a proficiency in energy drawing that rises by 2

Let's talk about it later

Tao Fengnian suddenly laughed at himself, thinking that at his age, he shouldn't be competing with a child, not even as good as a child

[ ... ... Proficiency in Breathing Technique + 1 ]

Jiang Yuebai widened her eyes in surprise, as Hong Guan Shi said that among the three outstanding individuals who entered the inner gate, apart from Lu Nanzhi, who possessed a natural spiritual body, the one with the best aptitude was Xie Jingshan

"Where is it impressive?" Tao Fengnian replied irritably.

Throughout the journey, Tao Fengnian remained silent, merely nodding in acknowledgment or responding with a faint "mm" when passersby greeted him

Two bowls of white rice, one plate of pickled vegetables, and Tao Fengnian set down two pairs of chopsticks

You consolidate what you have just obtained here, and after I finish my work in the fields... we will return together

Jiang Yuebai chuckled and said, "This is something I pondered myself. Last winter, while begging at Xingshan Temple, there were dozens of little beggars who would tell everyone about the famine in their hometown and the tragic deaths of their relatives. Each one was more pitiful than the last, but who has that much compassion to feel sorry for everyone?"

Tao Fengnian was executing the Sharp Edge Technique to eliminate the black-haired worms in the Spirit Valley when a sudden gust of wind interrupted his hand seals, causing him to look up in surprise

Tao Fengnian suddenly stopped in his tracks, looking at the six-year-old girl in front of him with a complex expression

Moreover, everyone holds great respect for grandfather, which must be due to his high cultivation and abilities. Therefore, grandfather, are you the village chief

Old Tao, my sister asked me to accompany Elder Lin for a drink. I have entrusted you with the task of watering and weeding my twenty acres of land, so make sure to do it carefully, understood

One should not speak while eating or while sleeping; there are no rules!
