"After Sanchuan will take away 40% of the physical output, the remaining 60% will be yours.
You can dispose of it yourself. Of course, if you are willing, Sanchuan Club will be happy to buy it all and pay you a sum of spiritual stones directly.
The price will definitely satisfy you!”
Finally, Governor Li also added a special situation, which is a reduction in production caused by pests and diseases or other natural, uncontrollable factors. The Sanchuan Association will try its best to coordinate forces, including spiritual planters, to provide assistance.
However, these additional expenditures must be counted on top of Lingtian's cost input and need to be deducted from the output in advance before the two parties distribute the benefits.
Meng Zhou nodded, this is also the reason why some village landowners choose to destroy all the crops in the spiritual fields when they are half grown.
For example, if the pests and diseases are too serious, the more investment you make, the less your income will be. Of course, you must stop losses in time.
In this way, all the time and energy invested previously will be in vain.
The spiritual seeds and seedlings that Sanchuan will bring in include the resources spent on coordinating the spiritual planters and practicing the spiritual planters, and they will not ask for them from the landlord.
In this case, everyone can only admit their own misfortune.
After explaining all these situations clearly, Governor Li finally asked Meng Zhou: "Fellow Taoist Zhuang, do you have any questions?"
Meng Zhou thought for a while and asked: "If I can open up more spiritual fields, what does that mean?"
When he first arrived, Meng Zhou had already seen the spiritual field assigned to him from the sky. It was a square piece of land nearly 400 meters long and wide.
Two hundred and twenty acres is more than 140,000 square meters, but less than 150,000 square meters.
For Meng Zhou, heart is not too big.
Now that he decided to farm, he really wanted to grow one seriously.
Moreover, in his eyes, this is not a wasteland of spiritual fields, but an excellent leveling place for practicing various spells.
One of the most frustrating aspects of practicing magic in the Zhang Family Courtyard in Qinglinfang is that the place is too cramped and cramped, giving the feeling of being a dojo inside a snail shell.
Now that he has a farmland completely under his control, he naturally wants to feel more at ease.
Upon hearing Meng Zhou's question, Governor Li did not conceal his surprise.
He immediately introduced enthusiastically:
"If Fellow Daoist Zhuang wants to open up more spiritual fields, we, the Sanchuan Association, will definitely support it with all our strength!
Counting from the first year after you open up the land, we will provide you with free spiritual seeds and seedlings for three years, including annual technical guidance from the spiritual planter.
From the fourth year until the tenth year after the new land is opened, we only receive 10% of the output.
From the 11th to the 20th year, 20% will be charged.
From the 21st to the 30th year, 30% will be charged.
Only after the 31st year since you opened up the land, all exemptions and exemptions will be cancelled, and all the rules will be the same as normal spiritual fields."
Speaking of which, Governor Li specifically added:
"If you are not willing to operate here for more than 30 years, we will not let you suffer a loss.
For example, if you want to leave after 20 years of land reclamation, we will give you a certain amount of spiritual stone compensation based on the area and quality of your newly reclaimed land.
If you want to leave after ten years of land reclamation, the compensation for a single acre of spiritual land will be higher and you will never suffer a loss!"
Meng Zhou nodded, this was to encourage the landowners to work hard to open up more spiritual fields if they had spare capacity.
After introducing everything, Governor Li took out a special second-level talisman, the Oath Talisman, and poured a burst of mana into it.
"If Fellow Taoist Zhuang has no objection to all of this, then how about we settle this matter now?"
Meng Zhou took the second-level contract oath talisman and looked at it carefully.
Different from ordinary talismans, the Contract Oath Talisman has two sides. One side is the talisman structure of the Contract Oath Talisman.
On the other side, there are information imprints entered into it with foundation-building mana.
This kind of information imprint is not a specific written language, but a series of special spiritual fluctuations, somewhat similar to Morse code.
But the difference is that this is not a stipulation of a certain person or a certain force, but after the foundation of cultivation is established, it can be understood naturally based on each other's understanding of the Tao and the cultivation.
Meng Zhou just scanned it with his spiritual consciousness and easily read the information in these mana marks. It was exactly what Governor Li had explained to him just now. Moreover, it was more condensed and more concise than language.
Meng Zhou nodded in his mind and felt that it was necessary to become more familiar with this method. Many communication spells use this method.
Only in this way can long-distance communication across thousands or even tens of thousands of miles be achieved.
Not to mention other disadvantages of using written language to convey information, a carrier must be used to carry the information.
Obviously, the difficulty of transmitting a mana mark to thousands of miles away is not on the same order of magnitude as transmitting a piece of paper to thousands of miles away. The latter is at least ten times more difficult than the former.
After reading the contents of the oath of contract and confirming that it was correct, Meng Zhou poured his magic power into it.
After receiving his magic power, the oath talisman immediately spontaneously ignited in the air. As the oath talisman turned into ashes, two small dots of light appeared in the void where it was located.
One shot towards Governor Li and entered his body.
One shot was fired at Meng Zhou, but he did not avoid it and allowed it to sink into his body. It followed the flow of mana and automatically flowed into his Dantian.
Everyone knows that the oath made by the Taoist Heart is the most reliable and safe.
However, all practitioners, especially foundation-building monks who realize the importance of the soul in the sea of consciousness, are very taboo about swearing by the Taoist heart.
Unless it is related to the future and destiny, or matters related to Dao practice, many foundation-building monks would rather fail to achieve mutual trust and cancel cooperation than add another restraint to their souls just for one thing.
This is where the contract oath comes in. Its function is also to bind both parties to the contract. If one party violates the contract, it will also suffer backlash.
But the price is much smaller than the Dao Heart Oath, it only affects the mana dantian and does not involve the sea of soul consciousness.
Moreover, if the strength gap between the two parties is too large, or if one party's strength becomes much stronger after the contract is made, its effectiveness will quickly weaken.
If there is too great a disparity in strength between the two parties, even if one party breaks the contract face to face, the backlash it can bring to the other party may be as bad as a breath of bad breath.
Therefore, the effectiveness of the oath of contract requires strength as an endorsement.
It was precisely because Meng Zhou knew this clearly that he left his magic imprint on the oath talisman without much hesitation.
Governor Li was very happy to see Meng Zhou working happily.
What made him even more happy was that he had followed up on this matter all by himself from beginning to end, without any interference from anyone else.
Then, nearly half of the income from this spiritual field distributed to the Sanchuan Society in the future can become his personal income.
Thinking of this, he found "Friend Zhuang" more and more pleasing to his eye. He took out a jade tablet, poured some magic power into it and sealed it, and handed it to Meng Zhoudao:
"Fellow Taoist Zhuang has been on a long journey, so let's take a good rest first. Everything else can wait until later.
If you need anything here, feel free to message me."
Meng Zhou accepted the jade token handed over by the other party, and the magic power sealed in it fluctuated with magic power that was unique to Governor Li.
This is equivalent to his mobile phone number, and only by using it as a guide can the messaging technique reach the target person smoothly.
Governor Li finally bowed his hand to Meng Zhou and then fled away.
After seeing off Governor Li, Meng Zhou completely relaxed, a relaxed smile subconsciously appeared on his lips, and he wandered around the several-acre courtyard again.
After looking around, coupled with the comprehensiveness of his spiritual exploration, Meng Zhou also had a more comprehensive understanding of the situation in the courtyard.
The entire courtyard covers an area of about six acres and is divided into two parts.
Part of it is the area that Meng Zhou values most, covering an area of two acres.
It includes a huge pond that has dried up and covers an area of one acre. Four winding corridors intersect in the center of the dried pond to form a stone pavilion called the Lake Center Pavilion.
The shore area surrounding the pond is about an acre, and there is a meditation room that Meng Zhou valued most, as well as a simple elegant house.
In other places, there are rockeries and winding paths, but there is no flowing water in the rockery, and there are no grass and flowers beside the winding path. The bare area makes the place look more dilapidated.
But Meng Zhou knew from some traces that there used to be a lot of vegetation here, even some spiritual trees, spiritual herbs, spiritual flowers and elixirs.
However, these things were taken away by the previous owner when he left.
However, with the urine properties of Sanchuan Plateau, if those delicate spiritual plants are left unattended for a period of time, they will dry out and die of thirst.
The other part covers an area of four acres. The architecture is elegant and beautiful, but the materials used and the layout are very ordinary.
Moreover, there are many courtyards within the courtyard, each with its own unique design.
Some are winding and secluded, some are rich and gorgeous, and many of the details, especially the master bedroom, show that this is a boudoir for women.
Therefore, Meng Zhou immediately understood the intention of these courtyards.
I couldn't help but laugh in my heart, "The old man in front seems to know how to enjoy himself, and he has a lot of fun."
However, Meng Zhou only glanced at these areas once and then threw them aside, focusing entirely on the core hospital area.
After that, in the next two days, Meng Zhou waited for the negative energy accumulated during the last practice to be completely released and cleared, while making some arrangements for the core campus.
He took out a lot of second-level low-grade wood-type spiritual materials and used them as raw materials. He first used the chemical technique to process them into rattan ropes that were easy to braid.
Then, four concealing talisman arrays, four shielding talisman arrays, four defensive talisman arrays, four spirit gathering talisman arrays, four earth power talisman arrays, and four confinement talisman arrays were compiled and staggered in the core courtyard.
The edges are square.
Because this is a second-level spiritual land, there is no need to fill in middle-level spiritual stones for support.
Moreover, with his attainments in the formation path, Meng Zhou easily found the node of the earth's spiritual energy.
As he placed all the talisman arrays in the appropriate positions, Meng Zhou flew in the air and used the magic formula to activate, and he saw that the originally independent talisman arrays were connected into a whole by the connection of the earth's spiritual energy.
Eventually, the entire core courtyard was included.
All the knotted talismans disappeared into the air, and instead, with the continuous flow of spiritual energy, a huge spiritual energy shield suddenly appeared around the core courtyard.
Then, a faint white mist appeared again, and the spiritual energy shield gradually disappeared into the white mist, and the faint white mist also disappeared.
But the seemingly transparent and unobstructed void looks so hazy and blurry.
After that, from outside the core courtyard, one could no longer look directly at everything in the courtyard, and could only see some severely distorted and meaningless scenes.
But Meng Zhou looked from the inside out, but there was no impact at all.
Seeing this, Meng Zhou nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he snapped his fingers again.
Suddenly, he felt that his body had turned into a lump of iron, even much heavier than solid iron. He was "pressed" from the air to the ground with almost no resistance.
When his feet landed on the ground, he stepped on the hard ground and made two dents as deep as his knees.
Meng Zhou struggled to pull his feet out of the ground and tried to walk a few steps, each step causing deep depressions.
Heavy, sluggish, difficult.
It is much more difficult than ordinary people walking in deep snow and silt-covered mud.
"These four earth power talisman arrays have brought at least a twenty-fold increase in earth power. I am still in the second level of body refining with a powerful physique, and I can't resist them.
If he were an ordinary foundation-building cultivator, this earth power talisman formation alone would be able to freeze him in place like a nail.
If it were someone with a weaker constitution, it would not be impossible for his internal organs to rupture or even explode due to direct pressure."
Then, Meng Zhou removed the earth power talisman array and tried the confinement talisman array again.
As the power of the four confinement talismans concentrated on himself, Meng Zhou felt as if his magic power was sealed, blocked in his dantian, unable to take a step out of his dantian.
"Well, their level is still relatively low now. They are obviously effective against monks in the early stage of foundation building, but their power will be greatly reduced against monks in the middle stage of foundation building and above."
Meng Zhou decided to spend more time on these talisman formations in his spare time and level them up more.
Then, Meng Zhou knitted two black turtle spirit puppets and two giant bear spirit puppets respectively, and hid them in the talisman formation system that enveloped the entire core courtyard.
They will be like spiders lying quietly on the cobweb. Wherever there is any abnormal movement, they will appear there and launch a life-threatening attack on the source of the abnormal movement.
After a final inspection, Meng Zhou was confident that even if the monks forced their way into this place in the middle of foundation building, they would never come back.
Late stage of foundation building?
The gap was so huge that Meng Zhou didn't dare to attack him directly, but he believed that it would be enough to trip the opponent and buy him time to escape.
After this arrangement, Meng Zhou felt much more at ease.
He will not be fooled by the apparent peace and tranquility of Sanchuan Plain.
Sanchuanyuan seems to be more leisurely and peaceful than Qinglinfang. In fact, the former is more suitable for quiet practice than the latter.
But the two are fundamentally different.
The security of Qinglinfang comes from the endorsement of Qingxuanzong. As long as Qingxuanzong is still the god of Qingxuan Domain, no one will dare to mess around in Qinglinfang, and they will stick to the rules of Qinglinfang and dare not exceed them.
But the safety of Mikawa Plain comes from the unprofitability here.
Those foundation-building experts and forces with stronger strength and greater ambitions looked down upon the inefficient and slow growth accumulation of Sanchuan Yuan.
Because the biggest limitation of planting is that the growth cycle of spiritual plants is very stubborn.
Five-year-old spiritual plants, in the hands of ninth-level foundation-building monks, still have to grow properly for five years.
At this point, building nine levels of foundation will not have any advantage over building one level of foundation.
If he wants to harvest more than in the foundation-building stage, he can only expand the planting area, cultivate it more carefully, and cultivate intensively to increase the yield per acre.
Obviously, no monk who has reached the pinnacle of foundation building will be satisfied with having more acres of land than other monks who are in the early or middle stages of foundation building.
As for relying on strong strength to control some weak foundation builders to work as tenant laborers, without paying anything, and directly sucking blood from them, that is completely overthinking.
There is no such abuse of foundation-building monks.
There may be differences in strength between foundation builders, but in terms of mind and dedication to the avenue, a new foundation builder will not be inferior to a peak foundation builder.
The model of the Sanchuan Society is already at its limit. The owner of the village only needs to practice cultivation and take care of the spiritual field without worrying about anything else.
Sanchuan will provide all chores and logistics except direct planting, so that you can participate in the profit sharing with peace of mind.
Although this is profitable, it is still inefficient and long-term.
But in Meng Zhou's view, the security based on this foundation is far less reliable than Qinglinfang.
In Qinglinfang, he can basically trust that the rules of Qinglinfang can protect him.
After trekking 50,000 miles to reach Sanchuan Plateau, I feel more at ease.
But at the same time, he must also learn to protect himself.
It is absolutely impossible for him to place his hopes on the Mikawa Society.
Now, Meng Zhou tried his best to turn this core campus into a turtle shell with thorns, and his heart, which had always been a little uneasy, finally settled down.
After arranging all this, Meng Zhou didn't do anything else. He sat cross-legged in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, holding the rope spirit in his hand, and weaving various talisman formations and spirit puppets over and over again.
After absorbing all the divine will and divinity from the three strange statues in one breath, Yaya fell into a deep sleep again, but this did not stop him from using its rope body to weave various talisman arrays and spirit puppets to gain experience.
When Meng Zhou felt that the negative energy in his body was completely released, his body and mind once again became clear and clear. The seven talisman formations of clear spirit, gathering spirit, hiding, shielding, defense, earth power, confinement, and confinement breaking, as well as the two talisman formations of black turtle and giant bear.
All the spirit puppets successfully completed the entry-level accumulation and successfully entered the first level.
And because of these improvements, Meng Zhou's second-level knots have also improved a lot.
The progress of the Knot Master is +60, "The second level of the Knot Master is 70/1000".
With a thought, Meng Zhou put the rope spirit into the sea of consciousness, and disappeared from the lake center pavilion in a flash.
…
The next moment, he was sitting cross-legged in the quiet room.
At this moment, it is late at night on June 30th, and it is about to enter the first day of July.
At this moment, 50,000 miles away in Qinglinfang, the name of the scumbag "Mengzhuang" has spread to every corner of Qinglinfang, becoming an existence that is despised in everyone's mouth and envied in their hearts.
At this moment, Meng Zhou was adjusting his mood at the end, slowly calming down the agitated mood caused by excessive expectations.
The reason why I have high expectations for this training is because both fundamental methods will be further improved this time.
"Soul Pond Refining Moon Heart Begins to Become 1720/2000"
"Xuangui body refining method first achieved 500/600"
The three-pole cycle began to flow steadily, and the first breakthrough was the Black Turtle Body Refining Method, which advanced from the initial level to the small level.
Qi and blood become more abundant, and the body becomes stronger.
Shortly thereafter, the Consciousness Sea Soul Pond also underwent an obvious transformation.
The scope of the soul pool has become larger and deeper, and the bright moon at the bottom of the pool has become more stable and deep.
And with the transformation of the soul, many of the threads of oaths wrapped around the soul pool were broken and became fewer.
After this practice ended, Meng Zhou withdrew from the heavenly feeling, and the harvest brought about by this practice was immediately reflected in his heart.
…
Cultivation progress +100, foundation building second floor 202/1000
Spring Water Sutra experience +500, second level Spring Water Sutra Dacheng 2900/8000
Soul Pond Moon Refining Heart experience +400, Soul Pond Moon Refining Heart minor gain 120/4000
Black Turtle Body Refining Technique Experience +400, Black Turtle Body Refining Technique Small Success 300/1200
…
Dao Heart Oath·Hidden Binding: 155/1000,-200
…
With the breakthrough in the soul refining method, the ability of the innate soul technique "Moon Mirror" has also been greatly improved.
First of all, the most intuitive change is that the viewing range has been increased from the original radius of one mile to a radius of two miles.
Secondly, it is the depth of observation.
From the moon mirror, Meng Zhou could clearly see the knotted talismans that had disappeared into the void under the cover of the earth's spiritual energy, and the knotted spirit puppets clearly appeared in the moon mirror.
All the means he deployed were invisible under this mirror.
Although it is convenient to look from the inside out, it is easier to see the reality and reality. For this reason, he also tried standing outside the courtyard and looking in, but he could not see through the formation in the courtyard.
But this is a welcome change.
"If the soul refining method goes one step further, will it be possible to see through the reality of the second-level formation?"
Meng Zhou was very happy with the changes brought about by the breakthrough in the soul refining method.
But in the face of the breakthrough in the body-refining method, Meng Zhou was a little unhappy.
Judging from the data alone, the Body Refining Method, which was the last to be practiced, is now at the same level as the Soul Refining Method, both at the completion stage, and the progress is even faster. It is really coming from behind. This seems to be a thing.
Something to be happy about.
But Meng Zhou knew that this was not something to be happy about, but rather something bad!
This means that the foundation of this body-training method, which can be called "second level", is very shallow. Even if he practices it all the way to perfection, the rewards it can give him will not be much.
It is even difficult to use it to reach the peak of second-level body training.
"It's not enough. The level of this body training method is not enough. We have to dig deeper."
Thinking of this, Meng Zhou's heart moved, and two more mysterious turtles the size of washbasins appeared on the ground in front of him.
They were still a little listless at first, but after seeing Meng Zhou, they were like young chicks seeing their parents and relatives.
Climb to his feet, stretch your head forward as hard as you can, and open your mouth to ask for food.
"Are you hungry again?"
Meng Zhou took out a handful of special animal pills and stuffed ten pills into the mouths of the two turtles.
The two turtles, who were so hungry a moment ago, soon began to spin in circles with great difficulty.
If a monk who knew how to feed spiritual beasts saw him, he would definitely curse him. There are rules when it comes to raising spiritual beasts.
Respect its own life characteristics and proceed step by step. Especially spiritual animals like the Xuanling Turtle are notorious for slow growth.
Feeding must also come slowly.
Meng Zhou did this kind of cramming on purpose.
It's not like he doesn't know the drawbacks.
Compared to the Xuanling Turtle that grows up normally, its ambition and determination are not enough, and its defense and defense are worse...it will be worse in all aspects.
Just like a caged chicken whose feet have never touched the ground since it was hatched, even if it is the same breed, its quality in all aspects will be weaker than that of a pheasant.
But the reason why he raised the Xuanling Turtles was not to gain the combat power of the two turtles. His fundamental purpose was to observe their growth.
In this case, this is naturally not a disadvantage.
Because they swallowed too many beast pills at one time, the two Xuanling Turtles, who were still only at the lower level of the first level, were a little overwhelmed.
Meng Zhou placed his hands on the two tortoise shells and continued to send foundation-building mana full of rich vitality.
He evenly delivered the essence and nutrients contained in the ten beast pills, which would help the Xuanling Turtles grow and transform, to every part of their bodies, including their bones, flesh, and organs.
Soon, the two mysterious turtles were "soaked" in abundant nutritional essence and fell into a deep sleep again.
Finally, Meng Zhou put the two mysterious turtles into the beast bag again.
"Well, the next time they wake up, it should be when they break through to the first-level mid-level."
"There are not enough raw materials to prepare the beast pills. We need to prepare more quickly."
Meng Zhou kept this in mind and made one last attempt.
Meng Zhou searched out the information in his heart about "Cloud and Rain Technique", and all his attention was immersed in it.
Not long after, Meng Zhou's eyes flashed with joy.
"feasible!"
The last time the soul refining method broke through from the beginning to the initial completion, the quality of Meng Zhou's soul was already equivalent to that of the ordinary foundation building stage.
But the only second-level mid-level spells he can practice are the art of transforming objects and the art of penetrating walls. The "cloud and rain art" and "gentle wind art" just can't get through the door.
Meng Zhou judged that even if they were both second-level mid-level spells, these four spells had different specific requirements for the soul.
It is also because the level of the soul exceeds the level of mana. When the cultivation level breaks through from the first level of foundation building to the second level of foundation building, the benefit to the soul is minimal.
This time, the soul refining method advanced from the initial stage to the small stage, and the soul transformed again.
Meng Zhou was delighted to discover that Yun Yu Shu could finally be practiced.
Then, he tried the Zephyr Technique again, but there was also no threshold.
Finally, he tried the second-level high-grade River Burning Technique again, and quickly shook his head and retreated.
"My current soul strength should be between the middle and late stages of foundation building, probably above the sixth level of foundation building."
Meng Zhou came to a conclusion from this.
On this day, the afternoon of the third day of July, Meng Zhou left the quiet room and stood on the pavilion in the middle of the lake, overlooking the pond below which was twenty to thirty meters long and wide.
He closed his eyes, while mobilizing the magic power in his body, his powerful spiritual consciousness connected with the aura outside him.
Gradually, Meng Zhou grasped the special rhythm of the two.
At a certain moment, when the rhythms of the two reached a harmonious state, Meng Zhou suddenly opened his eyes, pinched the spirit formula with both hands, and the magic power from the second level of the foundation surged out from his fingertips like a flood.
Soon, a cloud filled with rich spiritual energy appeared in the sky above the Huxin Pavilion.
Taking the pavilion in the center of the lake as the center, it spreads to the surroundings. When it stops spreading further, it has covered most of the dry pond.
Then, a drop of rainwater containing second-level spiritual energy dripped from it.
One drop, two drops, three drops...
Soon, drizzle began to fall over half of the pond area above the Huxin Pavilion.
"Introduction to Cloud and Rain Technique 1/250"
Meng Zhou's mana was constantly draining away, and his experience in the cloud and rain technique was also constantly improving.
When the mana on the second floor of the foundation is exhausted, the experience of the Cloud and Rain spell increases by 20 points.
"Introduction to Cloud and Rain Technique 20/250"
With the successful introduction to the cloud and rain technique, Meng Zhou also naturally realized that he could choose to expand the scope of the cloud and rain layer and make a rain with a larger coverage area.
But the price is that the spiritual energy contained in the clouds and rain layers will become increasingly thinner and thinner until it is completely gone.
Now he can make a heavy rain that can cover a radius of one mile.
But there is no spirituality in this heavy rain. It is the most ordinary rain.
With such ability, it may be difficult to be a national teacher in the mortal world, but being respectfully called an immortal is worthy of the name.
But obviously, such a method is meaningless here and now.
When the mana was exhausted, the clouds and rain layers dissipated, and the rain that drenched most of the pond finally gathered in a small area below the lowest lake pavilion.
The edge of the entire pond is the shallowest, and the bottom of the pond is only more than one meter high from the stone shore. The area around the pavilion in the center of the lake is the deepest, with a gap of three to four meters from the edge, and an obvious slope can be seen.
If the pond is full of water, the water depth around the lake center pavilion can reach five or six meters.
In comparison, the current amount of water is really just a sprinkling of water.
After Meng Zhou returned to his quiet room to recuperate, he appeared again on the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
His consciousness is still connected to the spiritual energy outside his body, and his magic power is slowly running and accumulating in his body, like a spring being pressed lower and lower, and he pinches the spiritual secrets with his hands to connect the inside and outside.
As he pointed out, the magic power in his body rushed out like a spring.
"Hoo~ho~ho~"
Soon, a light blue wind appeared over the pond.
"Introduction to Japanese Style 1/250"
Meng Zhou felt that it would be more appropriate to call this "gentle wind" the wind of vitality, or the "spring breeze".
And this spell is in perfect harmony with his Spring Water Sutra.
In fact, the two spells he mastered today are very consistent with the Spring Water Sutra.
If the compatibility between the Cloud and Rain Technique and the Chun Shui Sutra is 95%, then the compatibility between the Harmony and Wind Technique and the Chun Shui Sutra is 100%.
This light green wind blew across the pond, blowing out twenty-five lotus seeds that were deposited on the bottom of the pond and were withered.
Each of these lotus seeds has its own problems, some are shriveled and not plump, and some are simply half-eaten. This is the reason why they were abandoned by their original owners.
But under the blowing of this "gentle wind", the little remaining vitality was awakened.
If there are no other measures, they will be doomed to tragedy after they "wake up".
Just like a flash in the pan, the lamp dries up when the oil is exhausted. The meager vitality in their bodies is simply not enough to support their survival.
However, for Meng Zhou, as long as they can "wake up", the follow-up becomes very simple.
He sent mana full of vitality into the twenty-five lotus seeds from a distance.
Then, just like an oil lamp that was about to burn out and was filled with new oil, the vitality contained in the twenty-five lotus seeds began to grow rapidly.
They take root, they sprout.
Although the roots are very tender, so are the buds.
But under Meng Zhou's gaze, twenty-five fresh and tender seedlings appeared at the bottom of the pond.
And as the twenty-five spiritual lotus seeds turned into twenty-five spiritual lotus seedlings, it transformed from a quasi-life form into a formal life form.
Although he is very young and fragile, the common characteristics of life still begin to take effect.
Their open life portals began to close, and the influence of the Zephyr Technique on them stopped at this moment.
Of course, you can also intervene by force, but that would be the effect of a spell.
It goes against the law of its own life and will basically be destroyed once.
Meng Zhou took a Linglian seedling into his hand and blew a steady stream of gentle wind into it. The Linglian seedling that had just taken root and sprouted quickly grew up and soon grew a long and straight stem and a flower.
Green lotus leaves as huge as an umbrella canopy.
Then, at a speed visible to the naked eye, a white lotus with pink bloomed from a flower bud.
The aroma spreads quickly and is refreshing.
Finally, the lotus leaves withered and the lotus flowers withered, leaving only a lotus pod with full fruit.
In the end, the lotus pod disappeared like smoke together with more than twenty lotus seeds.
Meng Zhou felt the changes carefully, although from the moment he forcibly broke the law of life, the fate of this seedling was already doomed.
But every life process he has gone through is real.
"Can I prepare some spiritual seeds with unique effects as spell seeds?"
Such a thought flashed through Meng Zhou's mind, but he quickly pressed it down again. This was not an issue that he needed to consider now.
After successfully learning the art of wind and wind, Meng Zhou focused all his energy on practicing the art of cloud and rain.
Meng Zhou's biggest feeling is that this thing consumes mana so quickly!
It takes half an hour to return to the air, and it takes three minutes.
Meng Zhou kept up this rhythm, going back and forth between the quiet room and the lake pavilion a full forty times a day.
When he focused all his energy on this spell, he gained 800 experience points in just one day.
The degree of mastery of this spell can directly pass from the beginning to the first level, and directly to the realm of minor achievement.
The change brought about by the improvement of the level of cloud and rain spell is that the size of the cloud and rain group becomes larger, the cloud and rain group that can be activated by unit mana becomes larger and larger, and naturally more and more rain can fall.
After the initial formation, the size of the cloud and rain group has exceeded the scope of the pond.
But in order to avoid waste, Meng Zhou deliberately controlled the clouds and rain only above the pond.
The change brought about by the improvement of the level of mastery is that the clouds and rain groups become thicker and thicker.
Secondly, as Meng Zhou became more proficient in performing this technique, the "forward swing" became shorter and shorter.
When getting started, the forward shaking alone takes more than a minute, and after the first time, it takes half that time.
After a small success, the entire spell-casting action was shortened to less than twenty seconds.
With limited mana, it can still rain for only three minutes.
However, the intensity of the rain has increased visibly to the naked eye.
From the drizzle at the beginning to the continuous drizzle at the beginning, by the time it is completed, the rain has become very clear.
On the third day when Meng Zhou officially practiced the Cloud and Rain Technique, that is, around noon on the fifth day of the seventh lunar month, the Cloud and Rain Technique made a breakthrough from a small achievement to a great achievement.
The spell-casting action was shortened to less than ten seconds, and the rain became more intense. It could barely be called a heavy rain.
However, the scope of this heavy rain is a bit small.
Moreover, even if he continued for the whole day, it would actually only last two hours.
After that, Meng Zhou continued to accumulate skills for nearly three days. Just after the early morning of the eighth day of the lunar month, he achieved great success in Yun Yu Technique and broke through to the master level.
Not only was the casting action shortened to less than five seconds, but the spiritual rain that was limited to the pond was no longer an ordinary rainstorm.
Although it only rains for three minutes every thirty or forty minutes, by noon on the eighth day of the lunar month, the originally dry pond was already filled with water.
It is also spiritual rain rich in second-order spiritual energy.
Sitting in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, feeling the ripples of light under his feet, Meng Zhou felt refreshed.
These days, he has concentrated all his efforts on the practice of cloud and rain skills, but he does not feel tired at all, but a bit boring.
Because most of the time he spent in the quiet room adjusting his breath and recovering his breath.
Now, he felt that he could finally take a breather.
Meng Zhou took out a spell book from the jade volute that recorded many common first-level spells.
Because the Qi training period passed so quickly, he was absent from many lessons that were almost compulsory for other monks.
For example, he didn't learn any communication spells.
At this moment, Meng Zhou decided to make up for this lesson.
He chose the most difficult of the first-level communication techniques, the Flying Sense Technique.
Directly use mana as a carrier to carry recorded messages.
After a little research on Meng Zhou, he discovered that this first-order high-grade spell should actually be a weakened version of a second-order low-grade spell.
The part related to spiritual consciousness was completely cut off and turned into a pure magic technique.
In terms of training difficulty alone, this version weakened to the first level is even more difficult, and the requirements for the use of mana are also more stringent.
At this moment, Meng Zhou put back the deleted part of his consciousness with a completely overlooking look.
This makes the requirement for mana suddenly much simpler.
Meng Zhou quickly mastered it.
A small light as big as a mung bean shoots out from the fingertips and dances around the body.
"Introduction to Flying Knowledge 20/250"
With the introduction of this new spell, Meng Zhou naturally gained corresponding insights.
"Is the communication range a hundred miles?"
"Well, let's try. I don't know if he is at the headquarters at this time."
Meng Zhou was thinking in his mind, and took out the jade token given to him by Governor Li, grabbed a trace of his magical power from it, and then used the Flying Sense Technique to wrap this breath.
Then, he flicked his fingers, and a light spot the size of a mung bean quickly flew out of the hospital area.
Moreover, just before it flew out of the range of the formation, its traces had become very faint, and its speed was also very fast, comparable to a master-level flying escape technique.
…
The Sanchuanhui headquarters is more than fifty miles away.
Li Xiang was wandering around in the hall, and an old man with a ridged face came in from the outside. Seeing his appearance, he frowned and scolded:
"Why are you here? Go to the southeast and guard for me. Have you forgotten what I said?
Before the end of this year, many strange foundation-building monks will definitely come from there.
You should keep an eye on me, if you miss one due to your negligence, I will make you look good!"
Li wanted to face his scolding, but he was not afraid at all. He laughed and said:
"President, I have a month's vacation now, and you set the rules.
It’s my time now, I came here today just to see if there is anything here that needs me.”
The old man was surprised and said: "You've just squatted down to someone?"
Li Xiang smiled and nodded repeatedly: "Not only did I find someone, but that fellow Taoist Zhuang was also very straightforward. He decided on the follow-up matters overnight and signed the oath... Oh, I arranged for him to be on the fifth floor.
Xue Tianzhuang is more than ten miles away."
After hearing this, the old man thought for a while and then asked: "Do you know where he comes from?"
Li Xiang shook his head and smiled: "They didn't tell me, and I didn't ask either."
The old man nodded and said:
"Since it is the contract you signed with him, then you should follow up on the follow-up matters.
If you are new here and are not familiar with the situation here, don't wait for someone to take the initiative to contact you before you respond.
Take the initiative to contact me from time to time and ask if there is anything I need help with.”
Li Xiang nodded: "I know."
At this moment, something moved in his heart, and the old man turned his head and looked out of the hall.
Then he saw a dim light flying from outside the door. Li Xiang stretched out his hand, landed in his hand, and then melted into his hand like snowflakes.
Li Xiang smiled at the old man and said, "President, I'll go over and take a look at the summons from fellow Daoist Zhuang."
The old man nodded: "Go."
After Li Xiang left, the old man stood there with a frown on his face for a while, then turned to look to the southeast. Naturally, he saw nothing but a wall.
So, he continued walking deeper into the hall.
But between his brows, there were some worries that no one noticed.
Sanchuanyuan has always been in a position of "turning a blind eye" in the layout of Qingxuan Territory.
Very few outside events come here.
However, Sanchuan Plain is not isolated from Qingxuan Territory.
As long as the waves are big enough, the Sanchuan Plateau cannot be left alone.
…
Li Xiang, Governor Li, flew all the way to the sky above Zhuangtian.
The difference was noticed immediately.
The dry ponds and dilapidated courtyards that were once unobstructed have now disappeared from sight.
Instead, there is a blur of distorted light and shadow that is easily ignored.
"Formation? I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Zhuang to move very quickly."
Li Xiang guessed that fellow Daoist Zhuang should have made a lot of preparations before coming to Sanchuan Plain, such as arranging formations, arrays, and flags at his residence.
For items like this that involve personal safety, few monks would ask Sanchuan to come forward to find a solution in Sanchuan Plain. They were all prepared before coming.
Therefore, although Li Xiang was a little surprised, he was not surprised.
And just as he was looking around, the distorted light and shadow above the courtyard disappeared, and he saw "Fellow Taoist Zhuang" sitting in the pavilion in the middle of the lake waving to him.
Li Xiang quickly flew in and landed in the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
Looking at the second-level spiritual water that was about to overflow the pond, Li Xiang did not hide the surprise on his face.
"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, you are very fast!"
Meng Zhou motioned to Li Xiang to sit wherever he wanted, and said with a smile: "You have also seen me, except for this pool of water, there is nothing.
Therefore, there is nothing to entertain you for the time being, so you can just make do with it today."
Li Xiang smiled and said: "In this Sanchuan Plain, with this pool of second-level spiritual water, it is basically equivalent to having everything."
"As usual, when a new Taoist friend officially moves into his new residence, the Sanchuan Society will prepare a small gift.
If you don't mind, Fellow Taoist Zhuang, I will help you draw up a gift list."
Meng Zhou raised his eyebrows: "Oh, is there such a good thing? Tell me about it and let me hear it."
Li Xiang looked at the pool of spiritual water at his feet and said: "It would be a pity not to raise some fish in such a pool of good water. Sanchuanhui will prepare hundred-tailed spiritual fish fry for fellow Taoists. When the spiritual fish grow up, you won't need them."
I'm worried that I won't have anything to entertain you, haha... where there is water, there will naturally be lotus..."
Speaking of this, Li Xiang suddenly caught a glimpse of some light green in the pool.
Although the color is light, it caught his eye immediately.
"Since fellow Taoist Zhuang already has lotus seedlings, let's replace them with a spiritual tea tree."
Meng Zhou nodded, cupped his hands in thanks and said, "Governor Li is interested."
Then Meng Zhou said, "I'm inviting the governor to come over today. It's Zhuang who has something to ask about."
Li Xiang said seriously: "Fellow Taoist Zhuang, please speak!"
I don’t know what the reason for the censorship is. I tried to delete a piece of text, but I don’t know if it will work.
