From space to the world, it takes trillions of years

Chapter 195 Recruiting casual cultivators

The next day, Chen Yu was still wandering around the ordinary area in the space.

As the space continues to expand, it now covers an area of ​​about 10,000 acres.

It is called an ordinary area, but in fact it is just to distinguish it from the spiritual plant area.

Most of the plants inside are spiritual plants, some of which are of high age and grade.

A few that are not of good quality also have all kinds of miraculous effects that are different from ordinary ones because they are contaminated with a large amount of spiritual energy.

Not only did the number of spiritual plants growing increase, but the number of monsters that could be supported also increased significantly.

In addition to the four great foundation-building monsters, Dragon King, Tamei, Yunjiu and Taibai, there are also hundreds of small monsters in the Qi-refining stage.

The long-eared rabbits that Chen Yu had previously released into the space have now multiplied to tens of thousands, and the entire ordinary area has become their pasture.

This is the nine-eyed demon spider that is kept in captivity in the formation. It mainly feeds on the flesh and blood of long-eared rabbits. Other carnivorous monsters are also often hunted and killed in limited quantities with the tacit consent of the big monster.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be long before these rabbits would eat up all the spiritual plants they could consume.

And because the spiritual energy in the space is rich, a very small number of long-eared rabbits break through the restrictions of their bloodline and become true monsters.

Of course, this cannot change their fate of being at the bottom of the space food chain.

Not to mention the high-ranking foundation-building monster, any small monster in the middle stage of Qi training in the space is enough to uproot its clan.

Through observations of the aging degree of its body and spirit, Chen Yu estimated that the lifespan of a rabbit demon at the first level of Qi Refining is about one hundred and thirty years.

The period before the breakthrough was no more than forty years, but none of them could live to the end of their natural life.

This means that once becoming a monster, except for a few special species, the lifespan is not much different.

Aura is one of the foundations of the world of immortal cultivation, and it has the power to transform decay into magic.

Chen Yu also wanted to see to what extent ordinary animals and plants would grow under the influence of spiritual energy.

After the six-eyed demon spider advanced, it was nourished by a large amount of flesh and blood of spiritual beasts, and soon opened the seventh eye on its forehead.

This is equivalent to the late stage of Qi Refining. Although there is still great potential for growth, the Demon Spider has matured and can lay eggs and reproduce.

Since these monsters are brutal in nature and often eat each other, Chen Yu was very careful to leave a hole in the formation.

More than ten demon eggs were laid not long ago and have been handed over to Yunjiu for care.

The monster eggs have strong vitality, and Chen Yu doesn't plan to use blood to recognize the owner or anything like that, so he can just let them hatch freely.

He took some spider silk and used it to refine a low-level magical weapon. After cultivating it for so long, he could finally see some results.

Spider silk can not only be used to make banners for magical instruments, but can also be melted and directly mixed into materials to improve the performance of the instruments.

Having lived in the market town for many years, as an honorable first-class top-grade weapon refiner, it was not surprising for him to have any kind of refining materials in his hands.

It’s just that in recent years, the four major immortal sects have been peaceful and there have been fewer conflicts.

Low-level cultivators are still willing to risk their lives for a little bit of cultivation resources, but they don't seem to have the ability or need to entrust him with refining high-quality magic tools.

Therefore, Chen Yu did not receive many commissions for customized magic tools these days. Instead, he sold batch after batch of low-quality magic tools hanging on the wall for show.

The standard magic tools were cheap and quite popular among casual practitioners, and he bought the materials casually while strolling around the market town.

Chen Yu came out of the space. The spiritual tree in the yard was six inches in diameter and more than four feet high, and its crown covered half of the yard.

The grade is still the lower first grade. With not much Jade Dew of Creation applied, it is extremely difficult for the spiritual plant to advance.

The nuts that the stall owner talked about as being rich in spiritual energy, have not even seen the shadow of blooming yet.

It takes a long time for a spiritual tree to sprout and grow into a mature tree. Even dozens or hundreds of years is not too much.

Naturally, some branches of spiritual trees were also grafted into the space, but Chen Yu did not take good care of them.

There are too many types of spiritual plants, and there is an emphasis on spiritual medicines that are more than a thousand years old, so the Jade Dew of Creation is actually not very abundant.

Anyway, I just take the attitude of trying my best, and unless the collected species have special functions, I will just plant them in ordinary areas and no longer pay attention to them.

Of course, big monsters like the Dragon King don't just sit there to eat and do nothing.

He is usually responsible for educating the little demons, knowing which ones are edible and which ones will cause trouble if eaten, and he keeps everything in order.

The pond in the space was expanded again and again, and this was usually done by Chen Yu himself.

It doesn't require much effort, a five-element spell will naturally drain the moisture from the soil and the spiritual plants.

Over the years, Chen Yu has collected fourteen species of mulberry spiritual plants, which are basically the same.

This is the only type of tree that can grow to the second-grade superior quality. Hundreds of them, big and small, form a lush forest on the bank of the pond.

He also gradually replaced the earth fire formation with the third level, and flames flashed in the forest from time to time.

The most important factor in determining the grade of a spiritual item is the amount of spiritual energy and the degree of its condensation.

Whether it works or not, and whether the effect meets expectations, depends on the individual.

Chen Yu picked a small basket of mulberries and sat by the pond to prepare for fishing.

The fishing rod is made of second-grade, top-quality purple bamboo, engraved with large and small Ruyi magic arrays.

The fishing line is made of hundreds of lotus root strands twisted together and is very tough.

Lotus root silk is another excellent material for refining weapons that he discovered, but it is extremely rare.

From ten thousand-year-old lotus roots, you can only extract less than half an ounce of silk, which becomes a fluffy bunch on the palm of your hand.

The effect is worthy of its rarity. It is of grade three or above and can be used to refine most magical weapons.

Although there are hundreds of monsters in the pond which only occupies one eighth of the space, the majority of them are fish without any intelligence.

Of course, even if a true lord is fishing, he still needs to put bait.

Otherwise, you can use sleight of hand, but that's too tasteless.

The bait is a handful of snails caught from shallow water, and the soft parts inside are taken out.

Living in clear and spiritual water for many years, these snails have no fishy smell and emit a faint fragrance when they come out of the water.

Just this little bit of breath is enough to make the spirit fish rush forward one after another, regardless of life or death.

The hook entered the water, creating ripples and then disappeared into the depths of the lotus.

The monsters in the water knew that this was the hobby of the owner of the space, so they neither took the hook nor dared to make any noise.

A moment later, the fishing line sank suddenly.

With a slight flick of the hand holding the fishing rod, a two-foot-long eel came ashore.

The eels in this world are different from those in the previous life. After they mature, they can reproduce in their original habitat.

Otherwise, if you travel thousands of miles to the sea, you will be eaten by monsters along the way.

This is a huge flower eel with bright yellow patterns shining on both sides of its back.

It often feeds on small fish and shrimps in the pond, and swallows a small amount of spiritual plants. Its strength is in the middle stage of the acquired realm.

Chen Yu did not use any magic, but put the eels into the fish basket.

This gain was certainly not enough, and the light lines flew away again.

There are many fish hiding in this green sea, but most of the lotus leaves on the water surface are intact.

Even the lotus roots that are only six hundred years old have lotus leaves that are equivalent to first-grade, top-quality spiritual medicines.

Without the cultivation level above the middle stage of Qi Refining, swallowing it raw is equivalent to taking poison.

Further away, there are more than a dozen lotus roots that are more than 3,000 years old, and the Dragon King's lair is built among them.

This guy recently broke through to the middle stage of foundation building, and his cultivation level is once again far ahead of other monsters.

The old turtle under his seat has reached the ninth level of Qi Refining, and the monsters in the water are all directly under his command.

The task that Chen Yu assigned to it today has been completed, which is nothing more than feeding the magic spiders, soul-eating rats, and patrolling the pond.

Most of the things on the ground are watched by Yunjiu in the sky, while Taibai and Tamei take turns supervising the little demons in managing the spiritual plants.

Now the Dragon King is practicing by breathing in spiritual energy, and a demon pill is suspended above his head.

The advantages of the special bloodline are fully revealed here, and the way to increase true essence is similar to the practice in the early stage of Jindan.

Next to it was a rare treasure with only a taproot, which was emitting an aura that made the monsters' hearts flutter.

Judging from this fluctuation, a different kind of life is being nurtured in the lotus pedestal, which is only two feet in diameter.

A little further away, three fiery red figures were confusedly following the Dragon King's breathing pattern, shaking their heads and looking very uncomfortable.

These three Yangling fish are five feet long and weigh over a hundred kilograms, looking very bloated.

Before I knew it, two quarters of an hour had passed.

After catching several white eels in a row, Chen Yu hooked a three-foot-long silver fish.

This is considered one of the earliest indigenous species in this space. Sixteen little demons were born in the tribe, and the one with the highest cultivation level is at the seventh level of Qi training.

The scent of the bait attracted two more golden eels, each as thick as a baby's arm, with golden threads glittering under its belly.

With a good harvest, Chen Yu put away his fishing rod and fish basket and prepared to go to the ordinary area to cook the ingredients.

However, what is surprising is that the fish basket is only two feet high and of normal size.

If you look inside, you can see the shrunken fish, only an inch long, tumbling and jumping inside.

It turns out that this fish basket is also woven with strips of purple bamboo. The material is refined to make anything put into it smaller, and it returns to normal immediately after being poured out.

This is not a spatial means, but a formation derived from the size Ruyi.

The graceful and upright figure slowly returned, with wisps of bamboo in the purple bamboo forest behind him.

The bright yellow fruit has an attractive fragrance, and it is actually a second-grade lower-grade spiritual fruit.

Even the withered vine that was brought back from the edge of the cliff has now grown into a rare elixir in the world.

Twenty-five clumps of purple bamboo branched out wildly and gradually became one.

I don’t know when these purple bamboos will undergo another mutation, nor do I know whether they will continue to advance through reincarnation.

Otherwise, if it continues to spread like this, it will sooner or later occupy the entire spiritual plant area.

When the space grows to a hundred miles in radius, there will be a thousand acres of bamboo forest and tens of thousands of purple jades in the spiritual plant area.

When the young Taoist walked among them, it felt like he was listening to the waves in a sea of ​​bamboo.

On an island seven hundred thousand miles away, the spirit puppet used golden light to fly across the ground, and in just a moment it approached the mountain where the Floating Light Gate was located from thousands of miles away.

The puppet contains one thousandth of his spiritual consciousness, and most importantly, it can be replenished at any time through spirit beads.

The power of supernatural powers lies in spiritual consciousness and is closely related to its strength.

Although Chen Yu could not recall what this power wanted to leave on the Niwan Palace, it did not prevent him from using his magical powers freely on the puppet.

As far as the eye can see, the fairy mountains are vast and shrouded in clouds and mist, and the main peak of Fuguang Gate is hidden among them.

The immortal sect’s residence is no secret among cultivators, but it is not a place that outsiders can enter at will.

Three hundred miles away from the mountain gate, Chen Yu inadvertently caught a glimpse of a rather strange scene.

He had heard about the Fuguang Sect recruiting independent cultivators.

Because there is a lack of young talents within the sects, especially the loss of precious backbone forces in the competition for spirit stone mines some time ago, the six major sects are in urgent need of cultivators in the middle and late stages of Qi training to support the prestige of the sects.

As soon as Chen Yu arrived here, he heard that the six sects in Yudong had announced that they were recruiting a certain number of independent practitioners.

Of course, they will not become core members of the sect, but just a relationship of mutual benefit.

The independent cultivators want better methods of cultivation and guidance from their teachers, while the immortal sects want to send them on various missions to exploit the few resources available for cultivation.

If you perform well, you will also be rewarded with foundation-building pills and subsequent cultivation methods.

Chen Yu had no intention of blending in. It would be better for him to sneak into the mountain without being noticed.

I just feel that time is the greatest enemy of monks, and everything that is not eternal is illusory.

The once powerful Jindan sect eventually fell to the point of being associated with independent cultivators who had just started their journey to become immortals.

It is hard to say now, but once these independent cultivators have established themselves, they will definitely strengthen their voice in the sect.

The two will eventually converge, but whether it will be a one-sided assimilation remains to be seen.

To Chen Yu's surprise, the osmanthus tree was not on the surface of the mountain, but located in a hollow cave halfway up the mountain.

Although the place is hidden, it still cannot escape the perception of the spirit puppet.

The spiritual energy here is rich, but there is no sunlight.

A few luminous pearls hung above his head, illuminating a dim figure.

One of the only two foundation-building masters of the Fuguang Sect was breathing in spiritual energy and practicing in meditation here.

This cassia tree, which is thousands of years old, is very large and is more than three times thicker than the spiritual tree in Chen Yu's yard.

A large spirit gathering array was arranged around the tree trunk, with a radius of two hundred feet. The pure spiritual energy from the branches of the spirit veins gathered here, feeding back to the growth of the spirit tree.

But there was nothing else in the cave except this, and there was no accompanying spiritual herb.

It turns out that although this cinnamon has a mild temperament, it is also ranked as the lower third grade, and ordinary spiritual medicines cannot grow near it.

Moreover, the cave is completely dark, and only those who practice asceticism can keep it company.

Chen Yu walked around the tree three times, but the monk who was sitting there didn't notice anything.

The space in the storage bag was limited, so he had to take out more branches.

Treasures belong to those with virtue. Chen Yu was giving them face by not taking the whole tree away because it was too big.

As for what virtue is, those who practice Taoism follow the will of heaven and live according to fate. Naturally, the higher the realm, the greater the virtue.

In order not to disturb others, Chen Yu exerted all of his spiritual puppet's skills and instantly cut off more than a dozen cinnamon branches.

The foundation-building cultivator under the tree was completely unaware and was still immersed in the experience of his slowly growing cultivation level.

The aura of Jindan Zhenjun is enough to make him temporarily lose his five senses and automatically ignore all abnormalities.

After Chen Yu left for a few breaths, the real person who was awakened from his cultivation discovered that a corner of the treasure tree in the sect was missing.

The powerful spiritual sense swept again and again, but the opponent did not leave any extra traces.

Only at the cutoff point did a little sap from the laurel tree flow out, and then solidified instantly, locking in the spiritual energy.

Shocked and confused, he forced himself to comfort himself, thinking it was just some weirdo playing a little joke.
