Farming, raising monsters, cultivating immortals, and seeking immortality

Since awakening the Golden Spirit Root, Chen Mo found that he had a clear perception of insects such as aphids.

Once these disasters begin to eat the spiritual rice seedlings, as long as they are within the range of perception, they can always be noticed through weak disturbances.

This acquired change also made Chen Mo realize why a cultivating sect like Qingyang Sect only recruits monks with spiritual roots!

Having spiritual roots and not having spiritual roots are completely different concepts.

Not to mention the impact on the speed of cultivation, just being in harmony with and resonating with all things in the world is enough to beat any monk without spiritual roots.

For several days in a row, Chen Mo would inspect his spiritual field every time it was getting dark. He would even spend half an hour putting aphids that had appeared inexplicably in the field into earthen jars and wait for them. As they fight each other, they grow up little by little.

These days, He Zhiping is not idle either.

Every day I go back and forth between myself and Lan Ling's spiritual field.

After a few hard times, he learned the lesson.

Not all the aphids caught in the field were dumped into Chen Mo's field, but some were kept for reuse the next time he went there.

After several experiences, He Zhiping finally gained a firm foothold in front of Lan Ling.

Every day, I hear the other person call him "fellow Taoist He" and "brother He".

In his opinion, he was not far away from becoming a Taoist companion with the other party... However, every time he occasionally pretended to touch Lan Ling's body, the other party would always pretend to avoid it inadvertently.

But once he got angry, the other party would blush pitifully and mutter "Wait a little longer" and "Wait a little longer." For a moment, He Zhiping was being manipulated by the other party.

Until one day, a palm-sized aphid flew out of Lan Ling's field, scaring her so much that she used the entry-level Flame Palm in a hurry!

But the insect didn't catch it, and a small piece of the spiritual field was burned down.

Seeing this, Lan Ling ran to He Zhiping's cabin without stopping, took the initiative to hold the other person's arm, and begged while gasping: "He... Brother He, bugs, such big bugs!"

When He Zhiping saw this, the small head took control of the big head in an instant, and he came to the opponent's field with a guaranteed ticket.

Then, after a lot of effort, I finally found the aphid that was obviously different from other bugs!

That’s right!

Other bugs are no bigger than a thumb and are still in their infancy.

But this one is already an adult, and its speed and destructive power are beyond the comparison of larvae!

Of course, no matter how powerful this adult insect was, it was only one, and it was no match for He Zhiping. He simply remembered the Geng Golden Finger and easily eliminated the aphid without any effort at all.

"He...Brother He, this...what kind of spell is this?"

Lan Ling's eyes widened and she looked at the other party in disbelief. In terms of power, this spell was naturally not as powerful as Flame Palm.

The victory lies in its extremely fast speed and concentrated power. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is specially used to deal with aphids!

"One finger of Geng Jin!" He Zhiping raised his head proudly, thinking in his heart, why don't I catch you now?

"Gengjin One Finger? So...so powerful. Can I learn it?"

"Of course, you can buy it with two taels of spiritual sand."

"Ah, you still need spiritual sand?" Lan Ling lowered her head in shame, "I...I don't have any."

"You and I will become Taoist couples, and I will give it to you as a betrothal gift, how about that?" He Zhiping narrowed his eyes and said.

At this point, he stopped covering up.

Just practice double cultivation with the other person!

"ah?!"

Lan Ling's face turned red when she heard this.

Before the other party could react, she had already covered her face and ran away.

"Wait a little longer, wait a little longer."

He Zhiping looked at the running figure of the other party, and his heart was filled with excitement.

‘See if I don’t do anything wrong next time! ’

Afterwards, he hummed a little tune and returned to his spiritual field. He originally planned to go back to the house to reward himself, but suddenly he saw the spiritual rice swaying not far away, as if it would fall down at any time.

How could it possibly fall down if it hasn't even hung its ears yet?

He Zhiping was shocked and rushed over.

The moment he approached, dozens of aphids fluttered into the air and scattered at extremely fast speeds!

Survival is the instinct of any living thing.

The same goes for spirit insects.

When they first become adults, the aphids' carapace has not yet hardened, so they will flee immediately when encountering disturbance or danger.

But once they reach maturity, these bugs are like porcupines that cannot be driven away.

They won't leave their food until they are killed!

Now, more than a dozen aphids were flying in different directions. He Zhiping quickly used his golden finger to eliminate two or three of them.

At this moment, he no longer cares about observing the damage to the spiritual field. He must eliminate these bugs as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!

The adult aphid itself is a weak point. After a lot of effort, He Zhiping eliminated all the insects in the field.

Of course, this is also the result of Gengjin's finger. If you just rely on the flame palm, you may consume all the spiritual energy in your body, but don't even think about killing them all!

But even apart from this, the spiritual energy in He Zhiping's body has bottomed out at this moment.

He looked at the large bald spiritual field and sat down on the ground dejectedly, his mind filled with doubts.

"Where did so many adult insects appear?!"

He Zhiping is very sure that he is very careful when patrolling the fields every day.

It is normal to say that the larvae will be missed and only dumped, but how could the adults not find it when they run away at the slightest sign of trouble?

"Damn it!"

"Where did it come from?"

"Where did it come from!"

He looked around, still puzzled.

...

On the other side, seeing that He Zhiping had stopped moving, Chen Mo shook his head slightly and closed his eyes to practice.

That's right, he raised the insects and released them with a time difference.

Originally, he planned to fight back, but he still underestimated He Zhiping's means.

Unexpectedly, this guy also practiced Gengjin Yizhi. Judging from the power, he must have been proficient, otherwise he would not easily eliminate the adult aphids.

Of course, Chen Mo only regarded this as a small episode during his practice, and did not plan to continue raising and releasing insects.

After all, this is also a time-consuming and troublesome thing!

With this time, it is better to practice well, and breaking through the third level of Qi Refining as soon as possible is the kingly way.

In the following days, Chen Mo kept an eye on He Zhiping's movements while practicing, but gradually, he found something wrong!

As the spiritual rice began to hang ears day by day, the number of aphids in the spiritual field increased!

Even he, with the perception ability of the gold spiritual root, spent more than half an hour every day killing insects.

Not only that, these insects did not seem to decrease at all!

"Where did the insects come from?!"

Chen Mo felt something was wrong, but because he eliminated them quickly and early, it did not cause too much damage.

It was not until a large number of drunken aphids took off from the spiritual field next door, including Xiao Changhua, He Zhiping and other spiritual plant husbands, that he realized:

The insect plague has arrived!
