Plants vs. Cultivation

Continuing to take Gu Mo and his group on a tour, Ji Xinglan suddenly stopped in front of a small courtyard, "Junior brother, look over there, this is the spiritual plant that I cultivated." Ji Xinglan pointed to a spiritual plant in the small courtyard and said.

"This is..."

Gu Mo followed Ji Xinglan's finger and saw a small tree. Although the tree was small, the leaves were large, and there were very mysterious patterns on the leaves.

Seeing that Gu Mo was interested, Ji Xinglan pushed the door and entered the small courtyard, because this small courtyard was Ji Xinglan's cave in the secret realm.

True disciples have a cave and a spiritual field in the secret realm, and the grade of this cave and spiritual field can be adjusted, the highest can reach the 4th level, and the lowest can disperse all the spiritual energy in an area to meet the needs of cultivating various special spiritual plants.

"This is the Leaf Escape Talisman that I cultivated." Ji Xinglan picked a leaf and handed it to Gu Mo, "I don't have anything to give you, so just consider this as a gift to congratulate you on becoming a true disciple."

"Thank you, brother!"

Gu Mo took the leaf with both hands, and his heart was full of surprise. It was really a wild imagination to let the spiritual plant grow talismans directly. More importantly, it was realized by Ji Xinglan.

The effect of this Leaf Escape Talisman is that it allows the user to escape into the leaves, thereby concealing his own whereabouts and breath. This effect can be regarded as a simplified version of the mystery of the Wood Escape that Gu Mo understood.

The mystery of the Wood Escape that Gu Mo understood allowed him to escape into the grass and trees, and although this Leaf Escape Talisman can only escape into the leaves, the effect is similar, but the limitation of use is a little greater.

If Gu Mo had not already comprehended a little of the mystery of wood escape, this leaf escape talisman would definitely be a very good life-saving talisman. If he encountered danger and escaped into the leaves, he would definitely be able to escape smoothly as long as he was not locked by the enemy.

"Hahaha, they are just some small things." Ji Xinglan smiled and waved his hand. In front of Gu Mo, Ji Xinglan did not dare to brag. After all, the spiritual plants cultivated by this junior brother Gu Mo were all better than his.

"Let's go, let's go to the secret realm stele to keep the breath for a while." Ji Xinglan led a group of people and walked towards the depths of the valley.

Along the way, everyone also passed by several courtyards. These were the caves of the true disciples of Shennong Valley. As for the elders, although they had the qualifications to enter and exit the secret realm, the elders' caves were all outside.

The reason why only the true disciples were allowed to stay in the secret realm for cultivation was that Shennong Valley had naturally suffered losses in this regard. It is said that a long time ago, the true disciples also cultivated in the leaf caves of the 5th-level ancient trees.

It was not until a true disciple was attacked and killed that Shennong Valley allowed the true disciples to enter the secret realm for cultivation. After all, the secret realm is safer.

When it comes to the cultivation level of the Yuanying elder, it is extremely difficult to be attacked by others again. In addition, the cave on the 5th level ancient tree can fully meet the needs of cultivation. Naturally, there is no need to enter the secret realm. In this way, the elders can take action immediately when Shennong Valley encounters any problems.

"Brother, why are there no people in those courtyards?" Gu Mo asked with some confusion.

"They are all cultivating in the health-care lotus pond." Ji Xinglan is not surprised by this. For the true disciples, unless they are studying and cultivating spiritual plants, or doing other things, they usually don't stay in the cave.

Although the cave is also full of spiritual energy, how can it be compared with the effect of the health-care lotus that can improve the cultivation and physique at the same time? Most of the time of the cultivators will be consumed in cultivation. Therefore, the true disciples of Shennong Valley spend most of their time in the health-care lotus pond for cultivation.

Cultivation is the root of everything.

Moving forward, Ji Xinglan and Gu Mo and his party soon arrived in front of a stone tablet. This is the center of the secret realm. As long as you leave your breath on it, you can enter and exit the secret realm at any time.

So far, Ji Xinglan's mission has been completed.

But the things of Gu Mo and the other two are not over yet, because the three have a more important thing to do, that is, to pay homage to the ancestor of Shennong Valley, Qing Zunzhe.

Every new true disciple and elder can be summoned by Qing Zunzhe, but Qing Zunzhe sometimes retreats for many years, and when he can be summoned by Qing Zunzhe, this requires waiting.

This time, Qing Zunzhe came out of retreat to take charge of the Tianjiao battle, so naturally he had time to summon Gu Mo, Qi Chunde and Xiaohua.

At the same time, the three are also the only new true disciples and elders in recent years. The Shennong Valley True Disciple Competition is held every few years, but there are very few who can really challenge it successfully. Sometimes, no one can challenge it successfully for several consecutive sessions and advance to the true disciple.

As for the birth of the Yuanying elder, it takes dozens or even hundreds of years. Xiaohua and Qi Chunde broke through in a few years, which is rare in the history of Shennong Valley.

After saying goodbye to Ji Xinglan temporarily, Gu Mo and the other two continued to go deep into the valley. The secret realm of Shennong Valley is also the location of the cave of the Qing Zun.

The true disciples practiced beside the cave of the Huashen Patriarch, so it was safe.

Walking along the path, the three of them soon stopped in front of a small wooden house. Then, Gu Mo saw the beautiful woman with the fragrance of plants and trees and a crown of thorns on her head.

"Greetings, ancestor!"

Gu Mo and the other two bowed and saluted. As disciples of Shennong Valley, they naturally called their own Huashen Patriarch the ancestor.

"Not bad!"

Qing Zun glanced at Gu Mo and the other two, and a rare smile appeared on his face. After all, the three juniors in front of him were a special spirit plant demon king, a genius who successfully walked out of his own practice path, and a genius who performed brilliantly in the Tianjiao battle.

With a gentle wave of his hand, three streams of light were thrown out by Lord Qing and fell into the hands of the three people. They were three leaves, but the three of them knew that these were not ordinary leaves, but the unique inheritance leaves of Shennong Valley. Inherited leaves used to specifically record skills and secret techniques.

"This is the highest inheritance of our Shennong Valley, the Shennong Baicao Jing." The voice of Venerable Qing sounded. Both the true disciple and the elder have reached the qualifications to practice the highest inheritance of the sect.

Of course, those who have the qualifications have the qualifications. As for whether they can get started, that is another question. Among the true disciples and elders in the sect, only a few can really get started with the Shen Nong Baicao Jing.

"Start your enlightenment now. If you have any questions, you can ask them." Venerable Qing's voice was gentle. The inheritance leaves of the Shen Nong Baicao Jing cannot be taken out of the secret realm. You can only enlighten them here.

Hearing this, Qi Chunde and Xiaohua quickly picked up the inheritance leaves and began to meditate on the exercises on them. It was a rare opportunity to have the Lord Huashen personally teach them.

Gu Mo, who had already started studying Shen Nong's Hundred Herbs Classic, also picked up the inheritance leaf and began to meditate on it. Although Gu Mo had the complete version of Shen Nong's Hundred Herbs Classic, the inheritance leaf in his hand was only half of it.

However, the Shen Nong Baicao Jing in this inheritance leaf has many insights from the Venerable Qing, and it still has a huge guiding effect on Gu Mo. Although it is only half of the Shen Nong Baicao Jing, the Qing Venerable has obviously already completed this half of the Shen Nong Baicao Jing. Already eaten through.

It's a pity that when Gu Mo obtained the complete Shen Nong's Baicao Jing at the Cave Sky Ruins, he also swore an oath not to pass on the Shen Nong's Baicao Jing to outsiders.

After carefully comprehending the many insights of Venerable Ye Zhongqing, many doubts in Gu Mo's heart were immediately answered, which directly raised Gu Mo's understanding of Shen Nong's Baicao Jing to a higher level.

And this realization passed quietly in a few days.

"Um?"

Venerable Qing, who was doing some light cultivation with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Xiaohua hesitantly. Just now she felt the unique power of pure wood from the Shen Nong Baicao Jing.

"Is this the beginning?"

Venerable Qing was a little unsure. It had only taken a few days for him to learn Shen Nong's Baicao Jing. This speed was too fast. Venerable Qing had no hope that Xiaohua could learn Shen Nong's Baicao Jing.

After all, Xiaohua is the Demon King of Spiritual Plants, and Shennong Baicao Jing is a technique for human monks. The two are completely incompatible, but the result is that Xiaohua actually got started in such a short period of time.

This really shocked Venerable Qing, but when he thought of Xiaohua's mysterious origin, even Venerable Qing couldn't figure it out. He must have a lot of secrets in Xiaohua.

Although he was extremely curious in his heart, Venerable Qing still suppressed the idea of ​​​​exploring Xiaohua. Every monk has his own secrets, and even the younger disciples cannot explore them at will.

Unless there is evidence to prove that a certain disciple may be a spy of the Demon Sect, the sect will conduct an investigation. Without evidence, the sect will not forcefully investigate.

After all, this matter is very sensitive. A sect that randomly explores the secrets of its disciples cannot last long.

If Shennong Valley can become a top sect, it naturally pays great attention to this aspect.

"Xiaohua, have you started?"

Unable to investigate directly, Venerable Qing asked directly.

"No, I don't know!" Xiaohua said with a distressed look on her face. When she was meditating on the Shen Nong Baicao Jing, she found that she had turned into a little flower and was parasitic on a very big tree. Later, the little flower felt a special flow of power from the big tree, and she imitated it. Follow the flow of power.

"A tree that knows Shen Nong's Baicao Jing?"

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Venerable Qing was a little confused by Xiaohua's description. The Shen Nong Baicao Jing was left by the legendary Shen Nong. Could it be that the tree Xiao Hua was talking about was related to the legendary Shen Nong?

"Hmm~~Xiao Hua, are you willing to accept me as your teacher?" Venerable Qing pondered for a moment and then said.

Xiao Hua's situation is too special. Does the tree she sensed contain the full version of Shen Nong's Baicao Jing? If this is the case, then Xiao Hua's importance to Shennong Valley is self-evident. .

"Ah, this family has a master." Xiaohua shook her head repeatedly. It was Hou Chunyu who discovered her and raised her. Xiaohua had a deep feeling for Hou Chunyu.

At present, only Gu Mo can shake Hou Chunyu's position in Xiaohua's heart, but this is only a shake, not a replacement.

"Ahem! Senior Sister Xiaohua, you are already the Demon King and have become a master. You can become a master again."

Qi Chunde, who had just finished his training, became anxious when he heard that his ancestor wanted to accept a disciple, but Senior Sister Xiaohua actually refused. It was the dream of many people to be able to worship the Master Huashen as their teacher.

Even if the master knew about this, he would be very happy.

"That's right, that's right."

Gu Mo also echoed that it was definitely a good thing for Xiaohua to become a disciple of Venerable Qing. Who else would dare to bully Xiaohua with the protection of Venerable Qing, the god-transformer.

Asking Xiaohua to deliver express is not bullying, he is paid.

"Then Xiaohua pays homage to the master!"

After being persuaded by Qi Chunde and Gu Mo, especially Gu Mo's hint that he would give a gift after becoming a disciple, Xiaohua immediately agreed.

Definitely not the gift that Covet Gumo promised.

"Okay, okay!"

After receiving Xiaohua's apprenticeship ceremony, Lord Qing nodded with satisfaction and trained Xiaohua. If Xiaohua can produce the complete version of Shennong's Baicao Jing, it will definitely be a major event that can change the future of Shennong Valley.

Even if she can't, Xiaohua's introduction to Shennong's Baicao Jing in such a short period of time proves that she has a very high affinity for the highest inheritance of Shennong Valley, and her future achievements will not be weak.

"Don't spread this matter to anyone else."

Venerable Qing turned his attention to Qi Chunde and Gu Mo. Venerable Transformation God accepted disciples. This was a big event, and a grand ceremony for accepting disciples would even be held.

But Lord Qing doesn't want Xiaohua to receive too much attention. If the people of the Demon Sect know that Xiaohua may be able to complete the Shen Nong Baicao Jing, it will definitely attract the Demon Sect's God Transformation to take action.

"yes!"

Gu Mo and Qi Chunde both nodded.

"How are you two doing with your enlightenment?" Venerable Qing turned to Gu Mo and Qi Chunde and asked them about their practice.

"Barely getting started."

Gu Mo and Qi Chunde said almost in unison.

Gu Mo has been introduced to Shen Nong's Baicao Jing for a long time. Now that he has gained enlightenment from Master Qing, he has reached a higher level. However, the matter of Shen Nong's Baicao Jing cannot be disclosed. In addition, with the case of Xiaohua, another introduction should be It’s nothing.

I never thought that Qi Chunde could barely get started, and Qi Chunde's reluctant entry was really a forced entry. With the help of the Tree of Ten Thousand Dharma, Qi Chunde was almost equal to a wood-type Heavenly Spiritual Root.

What is the Heavenly Spirit Root? It is 100% wood spiritual root. This is simply not something that human monks can achieve. However, Qi Chunde’s Tree of Ten Thousand Dharmas is a tree that integrates many spiritual plant abilities, and this Tree of Ten Thousand Dharmas It is the foundation of Qi Chunde. Therefore, Qi Chunde theoretically possesses the talent of wood-type heavenly spirit root.

This makes it easy for Qi Chunde to practice any skills or secret techniques. After all, the Tree of Ten Thousand Dharmas has access to all kinds of Dharma.

"Wha, what!"

Hearing this, Venerable Qing's expression management was in some confusion for a while. It was already surprising that there was just one little flower, but there were actually two such monsters.

"Don't leak this matter. If you have any doubts about practice in the future, you can ask me." After a long silence, Venerable Qing spoke.

As for accepting more disciples, it is obviously impossible. The two in front of them are masters and disciples themselves, and they have the inheritance of their masters and disciples. Naturally, Venerable Qing cannot interfere anymore.

But if the sect has such talented disciples, Venerable Qing will naturally give them some preferential treatment, such as guidance on practice.

"Thank you, ancestor!"

Hearing this, Gu Mo and Qi Chunde were overjoyed. It was definitely an opportunity to seek advice from a god-incarnation venerable.

"By the way, give me the spiritual stone futon that you got from the Tianjiao battle." Venerable Qing suddenly thought of something and said to Gu Mo.
