Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

After Pingjing defeated the attack of the Black Viper organization, her reputation in the world of immortality increased greatly, and her status within the Sun Moon Alliance also increased.

Now Zhang He's weight in the Sun-Moon Alliance is second only to the three Nascent Soul elders.

The Fan family of Wu State, who had been planning the obsidian mine in Ningjing County, could only temporarily stop the progress of this plan.

Because the strength of Ningjing County is strong enough, and they are not sure about the attitude of the three Nascent Soul elders of the Sun and Moon Alliance.

If the top leaders of the Sun-Moon Alliance want to protect Ningjing County, then only an all-out war will happen. There is not much difference in strength between the two sides. If it is an all-out war, even if they win, their vitality will be greatly damaged, and others will take advantage of them.

With the power of victory, Ningjing County gained a period of peace and quiet without being disturbed, just in time to develop with peace of mind.

Huya took a group of weapon refiners, formation masters, and rune masters and worked hard for a year before finally building the first steel foundry.

The factory is currently able to directly cast rails, as well as most train accessories.

After Zhang He visited the foundry, he asked everyone to continue their efforts.

In the future, foundries will not only manufacture trains, but also cast military equipment such as swords and armor.

Although the Zhou Dynasty was a world of immortal cultivators, every country maintained a large number of mortal armies.

With the current smelting level of the Zhou Dynasty, the swords and armors equipped by these armies were all hammered out by blacksmiths.

The manufacturing cost of a large number of weapons and equipment is high, and even for immortal cultivators, it is a considerable fortune.

Now that the foundry has been built, it is not difficult to cast swords and armor in batches.

Of course, building another railway and manufacturing a few trains are the top priority now, and other things can only be considered as convenient.

During this time, Gu Liangqi and Wen Sheng were planning a new railway line.

The railway runs from Ningjing County to Mingcheng, a journey of more than a thousand miles.

For Jindan monks, this distance is not too far, but for low-level monks or ordinary people, it is still a long distance.

Especially when caravans transport goods, the journey is even more difficult.

If this road can be built, it will not only benefit Ningjing County, but also the branches along the way will benefit a lot.

At present, Gu Liangqi is negotiating with the sub-helms along the way to build the railway, and the negotiations are progressing smoothly.

The alchemists led by Meng Tiantian had tasted the benefits of poisonous pills last time and were studying the refining of other poisons.

Two days ago, Zhang He heard that they were working on a low-toxic drug.

This poison is sprayed into the spiritual field and can kill the pests parasitic on the spiritual plants, but it will not have much impact on the spiritual plants. As the spiritual plants continue to grow, its toxicity will slowly dissipate.

We already have some ideas, and I believe it won't be long before it can be produced.

Spiritual plants in the world of immortality, like ordinary crops, are subject to diseases and insect pests. Due to the attraction of spiritual energy, they are particularly prone to attracting insects.

Artificially grown spiritual objects require a lot of manpower and careful care, otherwise it will be difficult to die well.

As for the elixir growing in the wild, there will always be one or more monsters guarding it. They usually catch the bugs on the elixir, and once the elixir is mature, they will swallow it.

After the wild monsters disappeared in the Zhou Dynasty, it was difficult to find elixirs in the wild.

After the application of Meng Tiantian, a slightly toxic drug, it will be of great help to increase the production and income of spiritual things.

Everyone under his command performs their duties, and there is no need for Zhang He to worry.

Recently he has announced that he will be in seclusion. Since entering the middle stage of the Golden Core, he has not practiced well in seclusion.

His spiritual consciousness has been cultivated through the shadow demon clan's skills, and is now comparable to that of the mid-stage Nascent Soul.

It's just that this technique cannot be continued for the time being.

To practice their spiritual consciousness, the shadow demons need to burn the essence and blood of their physical body until the physical body is exhausted. Then he takes over the body again and changes into another body.

It's just that Zhang He is not a shadow demon. His soul cannot be taken away repeatedly, and the current body is his own, and he cannot abandon it.

He just borrowed the shadow demon clan's skills, but he had no intention of becoming a shadow demon.

After his physical body's essence, blood, and vitality were damaged in the past, he could take the Jingyuan Dan refined from the Jingyuan Grass to quickly replenish his physical body's consumption.

With the help of a large amount of Jingyuan Dan, he could quickly cultivate his spiritual consciousness to the current state. However, as his cultivation level increased and his spiritual consciousness improved, Jingyuan Grass was no longer useful to him.

His clone used the body of the undead demon king to burn the physical essence to practice, and then the clone automatically absorbed the spiritual energy to replenish the physical body.

Therefore, both the physical cultivation and the strength of spiritual consciousness of the clone have been growing rapidly.

Just today, Zhang He was meditating and practicing, but a message came from his clone that he was going to be promoted to Jindan.

Zhang He quickly entered the space and saw Chiyan's fluffy bird body being wrapped in a ball of flames.

Chi Yan struggled in the flames, seemingly in pain.

Zhang He quickly used his consciousness to protect the clone's soul to prevent the immortal demon king from sneaking up on the soul at this critical moment.

The shadow of the immortal demon king appeared in Chi Yan's sea of ​​consciousness without making too many movements.

This promotion lasted for ten days, and the fire around Chi Yan also burned for ten days before extinguishing.

Ten days of continuous fire burned all the fur on Chi Yan's body, but his skin was not scorched and instead looked very smooth.

The little bird that seemed to be loved by everyone suddenly turned into a bald bird, as ugly as possible.

However, Chi Yan's body had grown a lot at this moment, and was now about the size of a plucked roast turkey.

Chi Yan had just advanced to the next level and was still very weak and needed rest.

Considering that there was an immortal demon king hidden in Chi Yan's body, Zhang He kept a piece of spiritual consciousness in his sea of ​​consciousness to protect the clone.

"Hmph! You humans just like to treat gentlemen with your villain's heart. Can I, the majestic immortal demon king and a powerful god-former, do such a thing to take advantage of others' danger?"

The Immortal Demon King was obviously dissatisfied with Zhang He's surveillance.

"That's not necessarily true. We honest human monks are not as sharp-minded as you demons."

Zhang He now has to protect the clone. Anyway, he has nothing to do. He doesn't mind communicating with the Immortal Demon King to promote candor and mutual trust between the two parties.

"Ten thousand years ago, all races were like one family and lived together on this continent. It was you, the human race, who launched a sudden attack in order to monopolize this continent. All races were defeated by surprise and were recently exiled to the desolate land in the west. .”

"You monsters prey on humans and harm human beings. Naturally, the human monks couldn't sit back and watch, so they raised an army and beat you to a pulp."

Zhang He severely refuted the Immortal Demon King based on what was recorded in the "Annals of the Great Zhou Dynasty".

"Ha! Does eating humans count as a reason? Humans have been part of our diet since birth. If we don't eat humans, will we starve to death?"

The Immortal Demon King spoke confidently and seemed to make sense.

"Don't you humans often hunt monsters for food? What did we say?

Since you will die sooner or later, there is no point in living for a few more decades, so you might as well let me eat it. "

However, Zhang He was even more suspicious of the Immortal Demon King's claim of being a close family. With the Immortal Demon King's current shameless appearance, it seemed that it was not a lie.

"Ten thousand years ago, could humans be as close to you monsters and monsters as one family?"

"This is natural. Ever since I opened my spiritual intelligence and could remember things, the human race has been living together like our various races, regardless of each other.

I remember that at that time, all races were very weak, and there was not even a single strong person who could transform into gods. Our group should be the first batch of strong people who could transform into gods. "

Zhang He listened to the Immortal Demon King talking about the past and felt that something was not right. There seemed to be something wrong.

"What about the monks before you? Is there no one who can practice to become a god?"

"Hehe! Not really. I remember that the strongest person at that time was only at the Nascent Soul stage.

In fact, it’s okay for me to tell you. At that time, I heard that the world of immortality had just experienced a mass extinction before, and all the strong people above Qi training died in that disaster. "

After all, the Immortal Demon King couldn't hold back and told the secret.

"Great extinction? How did everyone die?"

Zhang He could not imagine what kind of reasons would cause the death of all monks above Qi cultivation in the entire world of immortality.

"I don't know. It was a long time ago from the mass extinction. There wasn't much information passed down. It was considered an era."

"That's not right. The information about the extinction has not been passed down, so how did the training techniques be passed down? They couldn't have been created by you, right?"

With the vast amount of skills and materials in the world of immortal cultivation now, it doesn't seem like they have been developed in a short period of time.

"By the way, I forgot to ask, how old is your life? How many years has it been since you can remember it?"

"I am immortal and have lived for about 20,000 years, which is far beyond what you humans can compare to.

The skills are naturally inherited from the previous generation of immortal cultivators. "

Zhang He took advantage of the fact that the Immortal Demon King was in a good mood today and the conversation was lively, so he asked a lot about the mass extinction.

But the result is still confusing. He can only deduce now that about 30,000 years ago, the world of immortal cultivation experienced a mass extinction, and all cultivators above Qi training died, and no one was spared.

What is even more bizarre is that all kinds of exercises have been passed down, but there is no record of the mass extinction.

With so many immortal cultivators, doesn’t anyone use a jade slip to record it before he dies? This doesn't take much effort.

During the following ten days when the clone slept and rested, Zhang He chatted with the Undead Demon King.

From the mass extinction of the world of immortality, to the break between the human race and other races, from the war between humans and monsters, to all kinds of delicious food.

The Immortal Demon King is indeed an old demon who has lived for 20,000 years. He has unique insights into the taste of the flesh and cooking methods of monks from all races.

In his words, he has eaten all races in the world of immortality.

The clone finally woke up after sleeping for half a month, and Zhang He's consciousness exited the red flame sea of ​​consciousness.

However, as soon as the clone woke up, there was an intense feeling of hunger.

He fluttered his hairless wings, flew to the peach tree in the orchard, grabbed the largest peach on the treetop, and ate only one peach core in two or three bites.

His hunger was not relieved in any way, so he sat on the spiritual peach tree and ate fiercely.

In just a moment, not a single peach was left on the tree. I don’t know how his small body could fit so many things.

This peach tree has been continuously cultivated and has now completely mutated. The spiritual peaches it bears are rich in spiritual energy and are also very useful for golden elixir monks.

After eating this tree spirit peach, the hunger in my belly finally disappeared.

As these spiritual peaches were refined in the belly, Chi Yan's body grew rapidly, and fiery red feathers began to grow again on his body.

It only took three days for the tree spirit peach in his belly to be completely refined. Chi Yan's body grew larger, and feathers began to grow on the surface of his body.

There was a strong feeling of hunger in his stomach again. He searched around the space and found dozens of boxes of dried sweet potatoes, all of which were eaten by Chi Yan.

After digestion was completed this time, Chi Yan's body grew again, followed by a strong sense of hunger.

In the next period of time, Chi Yan ate when he was hungry in the space, and ate up all the edible spiritual objects stored in the space.

Zhang He could only call over all the spiritual grains stored in the Ningjing County warehouse, totaling more than 10,000 kilograms.

A chef was also specially hired to help Chi Yan cook spiritual rice every day.

Chi Yan was like a starving ghost reincarnated. He struggled like this for half a year before he gradually subsided.

After another two years, Chi Yan's condition finally stabilized completely.

Now Chi Yan has changed drastically. He is covered in fiery red feathers and looks like a burning flame.

Chi Yan stood in the courtyard. He was much taller than Zhang He. When his wings were spread out, his wingspan was more than one foot, nearly two feet.

Zhang He approached Chi Yan and reached out to stroke the feathers on his body that were filled with hot breath.

"Let's go, let's go watch the fun today."

According to the news, in three days, a powerful man who transformed into a god from Wu Kingdom will hold an ascension ceremony.

This powerful man will first open a forum to give a lecture and explain some Taoist mysteries to the participating monks.

Then this powerful person who transforms into gods will ascend to the fairy world in public.

It is said that after practicing to the realm of becoming a god, one can sense an attraction force from the fairy world, attracting the powerful person who becomes a god to fly towards him.

It is said that the fairy world is rich in spiritual energy, and all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures can be seen everywhere.

It is said that once you reach the fairy world, you can truly achieve immortality.

No one has ever returned from the fairy world, and I don’t know where these legends came from.

Listen to the Taoism taught by a powerful person who transforms into gods, and witness a powerful person who transforms into gods ascend to the fairy world.

Many monks would never be able to catch this kind of opportunity in their lifetime. Now that there is such an opportunity, no one would want to miss it.

Even Zhang He came out of seclusion and could let his subordinates do other things for him. This kind of thing is like marrying a wife into the bridal chamber. There is absolutely no need for others to do it for him.

Zhang He climbed onto Chi Yan's back, Chi Yan spread his wings, kicked off the ground with his legs, and immediately took Zhang He into the sky.

It feels a bit weird to be riding on the back of your own clone, riding yourself.

However, there is one advantage that other spirit beasts cannot match. The relationship between him and his clone is like the body and limbs. He can fly easily without any deliberate control, just like using his fingers with his arms.

As a flying spirit beast in the golden elixir realm, Chi Yan's flying speed is many times faster than Zhang He's escape method.

A person and a bird flew across the sky, drawing a red line in the sky, causing many people to look up with envy.
