Chapter 57: Spiritual Roots
Xunyi didn't know that she was mocking herself. She smiled awkwardly. When she wanted to say something, her eyes straightened again. He saw a spiritual herb marked as extinct in the Master's catalog. However, this time he was not as excited as before. He glanced at it and let it go.
The fairy concubine stopped and said, "You know this too?"
"It seems to be called Di Lingxi. I forgot what pills can be refined. I just said that it had disappeared before." Xun Yi replied casually.
"It seems that you only study the elixirs that are useful to your master." Jingshui Nianfei teased.
Xunyi asked stubbornly: "Isn't it okay to be filial to the master?"
The fairy concubine curled her lips, "It should be, it should be too."
Walking under a fruit tree, she sat down casually, with one arm on the ground, one jade leg curled in front of her, and the other half relaxed and half curled up, her posture was extremely seductive.
Xunyi's heart was thumping. He didn't dare to look at it anymore. He lay down on his back, staring at the white clouds floating by leisurely, and said, "Madam, you can take back the spell. I feel that the mark in my heart has been soothed."
The fairy concubine smiled proudly and said, "Why do I use spells to deal with a little guy like you?"
Xunyi closed his eyes and said, "Tell me, even if you really want to keep me here to live with you, I will admit it. Who made me mistakenly recognize Rakshasa red pink?"
"I'm ill-gotten!" The fairy consorted with laughter, and used her jade fingers to tick up his eyelashes.
Xunyi could imagine her seductive expression at the moment, and closed her eyes tightly and said, "If you want to use the beauty trick, you can show your body. It will only backfire if you fool me with a spirit that you don't like. I am a irresistible person. The principle of facing temptation is to stay away if you can't resist."
"Go!" The fairy concubine poked his forehead, "I think you are full of pickled things, so I condescend to you and tease you. I really don't know how to be proud."
Xunyi smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "So it feels so comfortable to be scolded by a fairy. Madam, will you still treat me like you are now when you resume your cultivation?"
"Dream! The first thing I do after I restore my cultivation is to kill you and get up for me!"
Xunyi opened his eyes, turned to her side and looked at her with his hands.
The fairy concubine calmed down and said, "I need you to stay and help me."
Xunyi sat up, "I'm afraid not. You are worried that I will leak this hiding place."
The fairy concubine held the kidney bean in her palm and said, "If I didn't think you were a trustworthy person, I would have the ability to leave secretly after getting your spiritual power."
"But I really feel that I can't help you, a young monk in the Kairong period."
"I'll tell you from the beginning and help you gain some insight."
Xunyi was intrigued, got up and sat upright, blinking and waiting for the following text.
The Concubine Mirror Shui Shui said in a dreamy voice: "The creation of the sky is a great way. In the process of cultivation, all races have their own advantages and disadvantages. You humans and some beasts have high understandings and fast spiritual energy, but short lifespan, so they are collectively called spiritual cultivation. Our grass and wood clans and another part of the beast clans have lower understandings and their ability to absorb spiritual energy is not high, but their lifespan is long, so they are called longevity cultivation.
"In ancient times, all races lived in harmony and helped each other. The human and beast races used their own spiritual power to nourish the grass and trees, while the grass and trees fed back to people with the spiritual liquid they were born in their bodies. The beast fellows, this is the so-called "using surplus to make up for shortcomings" and "the sky has no waste". Now many spiritual herbs are often protected by monsters, which follows the nature."
Xunyi suddenly said, "So that's it."
The fairy concubine continued: "Later, you spiritual practitioners who thought they were highly intelligent and betrayed their faith and were eager for quick success and instant benefits. They used plants and trees and internal alchemy to refine medicine, which led to the death of many longevity cultivators. The battle between spiritual practitioners and longevity cultivators began and became more and more intense. This battle lasted for thousands of years. Although the side of the longevity cultivator was defeated by the end, it seems that spiritual practitioners may not be the winner. If you want to find spiritual practitioners again, it is no easy task. Once the selfish heart grows up, all evil will arise. Look at the current situation of your human race. How many people can achieve the great way? This is to eat the consequences of oneself."
Xunyi frowned and said, "Where does our selfishness come from? Maybe it's given by God, and all of this may be arranged by God."
The Concubine Mirror Shui Shui said seriously: "You are not the first to argue for yourself with this view. If you have this idea, you will never be able to achieve the great way. Your selfishness can be said to be the gift of heaven. But God also gave you the original intention of knowing shame and knowing good and evil. Only by being incomplete in the original intention can you get close to the way. Finding excuses and taking luck is what spiritual practitioners love to do the most."
Xunyi nodded listlessly. He had both kinds of problems, and they were ill in the bone marrow.
"Did you understand?" Xianfei asked looking at him.
"I understand. I am the furnace that condenses spiritual energy. I will not be able to leave for a while."
"I won't let you suffer a loss, and I will remember your kindness forever." The fairy smiled sweetly.
"How long does it take?" Xunyi must ask clearly this.
The fairy concubine said resentfully: "I also said I was willing to keep me for the rest of my life. Are you tired of it now?"
"No, I'm not repaying my gratitude."
The fairy concubine changed her smile and said, "Let you take you to see something first." After that, she got up and walked towards the wooden house. She was a spiritual body at this moment, and it was the most convenient to float, but she deliberately walked on the grass, and her skirt swung and her lotus steps turned into fragrance.
After entering the room, she opened the door of the inner room, pointed to a futon on the ground and said, "Turn away."
Xunyi moved the futon away and saw a small pit two feet deep. The bottom of the pit was a flat spirit stone emitting bright blue light. He had never seen such a large spirit stone. The standard spirit stones made by monks were the size of chestnuts. The largest natural spirit stone he had ever seen was the size of a walnut. The value of this nearly two feet large spirit stone can be imagined.
Concubine Jingshui said: "This is a spiritual root vein. Although it is not big, it is enough for you to use the late stage of the Nascent Soul."
Just one or two feet large spiritual stone was enough to surprise Xunyi. After hearing the three words "spiritual root veins", he was stunned. The spiritual veins were occupied by a strong sect. Although the spiritual veins are not as rich as the spiritual ore veins, they are also extremely rare. According to Lu Yan, the Xuanfang sect was strong because of a spiritual root vein. Now the spiritual vein has long been exhausted, but the spiritual energy within a radius of hundreds of miles is still very rich.
After standing there for a long time, Xunyi said, "No wonder you told me not to worry about the elixir. It turns out that I have this secret treasure."
The fairy concubine smiled slightly and said, "It's not just that. Although we don't refine elixirs, we can collect spiritual liquid from the spiritual herbs. Remember the drop of spiritual liquid you just asked to drink? It was obtained by innate magical powers. It can't be taken out by pressing methods. The spiritual herbs must be voluntarily given. Although the effect of the spiritual liquid is not as good as yours, it is better to obtain it for a long time and not hurt the spiritual herbs. At the beginning, spiritual cultivation was just too late to wait, but now it's fine, and I have no chance to wait."
Xunyi laughed and said, "I'll marry you as a concubine."
The Concubine Mirror Shui Shui glanced at him gracefully and said, "You must give up your master, and I can guarantee that you will practice until the Nascent Soul, or even transform into the feather."
Xunyi took a deep breath and said after a while: "Let's go with the flow. Even with many conveniences, I may not be able to survive the long and boring cultivation process. If one day I can really be free of worries, please help me."
"I think so beautifully. If you miss the opportunity, you will never have it again. I see you, there will definitely be hopeless in this life."
Xunyi sighed and said, "Actually, I knew not that I was a cultivation material shortly after I embarked on the path of cultivation. I had already regretted the days before you appeared. I often thought that if I were in the mortal world, I might be much more comfortable. The longer I live in this hard life, the more I suffer."
