Rising from Small Cloud Rain Technique
Chapter 433 - 371: Everyone ImprovesJi An walked out of the grotto mansion, took out two communication golden swords to report the good news, pondered for a moment, and then returned them to the void realm space.
It was too late in the double hour, so he decided not to disturb the ancestors.
He stepped into the teleportation array to return to Red Flame Peak, having returned a bit late today and having missed the Qi eating time.
Warm red clouds rose from beneath his feet, and Ji An rode the cloud to fly to the Cold Pool:
"Cuihua, I’ll have dinner tonight."
Zhang Cuihua readily accepted this sudden task, saying:
"Little ancestor, please wait, it will only take half an hour! Or would you like to have some pastries first?"
If the little ancestor goes to the Agricultural Hall, they would eat Qi in the morning and evening, not needing to return at noon, spending the entire day without having dinner at Red Flame Peak.
These past few years, her heart has been anxious again because no matter how good the spirit chef’s skills, it would be in vain if the little ancestor no longer requires them.
As long as there is work to be done, she is very at ease.
Ji An waved his hand and said warmly:
"No need, you don’t have to rush to make it, I’ll go channel some magic to the Spirit Field now and be back in an hour."
After saying this, he rode the cloud to the Celestial Essence Pear orchard by the Cold Pool.
The two-acre orchard was planted with forty fruit trees, but only one was Tier Two Upper Grade, sixteen were Middle Grade, and the rest were Tier Two Lower Grade.
This Top-grade Spirit Plant was only cultivated a few months ago, and Ji An was incredibly pleased, as he initially thought it was impossible to cultivate the Celestial Essence Pear to Top-grade.
Once this Spirit Tree bears fruit, he will keep the seeds to plant and replace those Lower Grade Celestial Essence Pears.
Frequently eating Tier Two Water Element Spirit Fruit, the Cyan Water Turtle has now reached the Second-Layer Foundation Establishment.
What brings the greatest sense of achievement in cultivation?
Ji An felt it came from two aspects: first, cultivating higher-tiered Spirit Plants, like today, when he cultivated a Top-grade Spiritual Peach Tree!
In the future, when he cultivates Top-grade Spiritual Peaches, there won’t be today’s sense of achievement.
The second aspect is breaking through the limits of a species; breeding ones far beyond the normal tier of Spirit Plants, like this Tier Two Celestial Essence Pear.
In years to come, the Celestial Essence Pears planted at Red Flame Peak might commonly reach Tier Two Upper Grade, or even higher grades.
With the release of Azure Dragon Shocking Skill, the Cyan Dragon’s Sky Chant stirred the spring thunder, and the cyan light column began to spread.
This special method-induced Magic Technique only carried the intent of the exuberant growth of the Wood Element without exploding with Wood Element Essence Qi.
He then released the Cloud Dragon Rain Technique, the dark clouds rolled and flashed with electrical light, and a nurturing atmosphere pervaded.
The steaming mist obscured the orchard, and Ji An rode the cloud out, flying towards the next Spirit Field.
...
In the Fire Element Spirit Fruit orchard, there were sixteen Top-grade Spiritual Peaches, six Top-grade Dragon Blood Trees, and the Spiritual Apricot Tree did not reach the Top-grade tier of the plants.
The Middle Grade Spiritual Peaches bloom and bear fruit once every three years, while the Top-grade Spiritual Peaches bloom and bear fruit once every five years.
The initially planted Dragon Blood Tree currently still had seventy-two fruits, all at an age of three hundred years.
When they reach an age of three hundred and fifty years, Ji An will pick half of them, leaving the rest to mature to four hundred years.
The initial seeds of the Spiritual Apricot Tree were only Tier One Middle Grade but were later cultivated to Tier Two Lower Grade and then planted extensively.
Now able to cultivate Tier Two Middle Grade Spiritual Apricots, Ji An was already very satisfied.
He released the Azure Dragon Shocking Skill, and the night sky shone bright with jade bead-like radiant cyan brilliance, with a Cyan Dragon moving within each jade bead.
The Divine Dragon could be as large as to summon clouds and fog or as small to hide in a mustard seed form, which was reflected in the Azure Dragon Shocking Skill.
The ground was fragrant with green grass, and wildflowers bloomed with a subtle scent pervading the air.
When the brilliance faded and tranquility returned, Ji An invoked the Zhurong Divine Fire Spell, and the Fire God’s apparition appeared.
The red sea’s rolling warm Spirit Fire enveloped everything, and moments later, the flames turned golden, dazzling and fading.
His brows furrowed slightly; the Dao Seed indicated that Ding Fire was Warm Spirit Fire, but what ’Warm Spirit’ meant, he could never comprehend.
He knew the phenomenon but not the principle behind it.
After pondering without results, Ji An shook his head, knowing he would have many opportunities to understand it in the future.
He invoked the Yellow Dragon Essence Enhancement Skill, a nourishing profound magic intent spread, the earth vein trembled, arranging the breath of the surface and underground.
Yellow brilliance flickered, the fish scale patterns became finer, and the black soil appeared moist and glossy.
...
The bright moon rose, casting a cold clear light on his face.
Ji An stood under the Ghost Moon Cyan Jade Tree, filled with endless feelings.
Unknowingly, Red Flame Peak had developed its current appearance, a century’s transformation in the blink of an eye.
The two Top-grade Cloud-Top Jade Trees benefited from the Ghost Moon Cyan Jade Tree, soaking daily in the rich moonlight, seemingly gaining some effects that nurtured the spirit soul through the tea leaves.
The Blood Soul Profound Yuan Fruit had already set fruit, also achieving Tier Two Upper Grade, and when refined into the Profound Origin Creation Pill, it would surely have a more powerful effect.
The Bodhi Tree was still Tier Two Middle Grade, and feedback from others indicated that its effect on enhancing comprehension was quite good.
But for Ji An, its impact was indeed weak and not noticeable.
For this, he felt both pleased and a bit disappointed at the same time.
Happiness stemmed from the fact that his comprehension was high enough, so the effect wasn’t obvious; disappointment arose because the things he cultivated were for others’ benefit, and he didn’t personally receive the advantages first!
After a moment of reflection, Ji An exhaled deeply:
"Hurry and complete the tea cultivation!"
Whether it’s Jade Dew Golden Bud Tea or Cloud Peak Silver Needle, after satisfying himself, there’s not much left. He still wants to exchange these Spirit Teas for other high-tier resources.
He began casting spells on the Spirit Field, smoothly unleashing the Yellow Dragon Essence Enhancement Skill, Azure Dragon Shocking Skill, and the Cloud Dragon Rain Technique.
The white leaves of the Ghost Moon Cyan Jade Tree emitted a sound like the clinking of jade stones, akin to wind chimes that lingered long, serene and distant.
In the Spirit Field of Azure Dragon Wood, there were twelve top-grade Spirit Woods, always hinting at strange sounds during the Cyan Dragon’s Sky Chant.
When approaching, however, the sounds ceased to appear.
Without taking much time, the spells were completed over five hundred acres of Spirit Field.
The quantity of Tier Two Upper Grade Jade Leaf Mulberries reached fifty-six plants; these Spiritual Mulberries receive extra care from the White Jade Bees when flowering.
Top-grade Spiritual Honey has a strong nourishing effect on the Bee King, allowing it to produce better Royal Jelly.
The only bad news is that the top-grade Spiritual Mulberries will flower and bear Mulberries every three years.
All top-grade Mulberry Leaves are supplied to the Beast Taming Hall, sometimes getting stolen and eaten by the Cyan Deer.
The number of Tier Two Spiritual Silkworms in the Beast Taming Hall has nearly doubled compared to ten years ago, producing more top-grade Spirit Silk.
Most of this Spirit Silk is stored in the Treasure Pavilion, ready for trade with the Business Alliance in the Central Continent.
The top-grade Biluo Trees reached twenty-four in number, with the fruiting period increasing from three years to five years, similar to the Spirit Peach Trees.
There are eight hundred and ninety-six middle-grade Biluo Trees, with the production of Cyan Leaf Wine reaching one thousand two hundred jars every three years; if not for the shortage of other materials, it could be increased.
Currently, the cultivators in the sect who have developed a Wood Element Divine Mansion during the Chao Origin Stage are the happiest, all extolling the ease of expanding the Wood Element Divine Mansion.
....
The Red Cloud Pine Forest is like a sea of fiery clouds, always reminding Ji An of a phrase, ’Fire trees and silver flowers illuminate the night.’.
The regret lies in having only fire trees, without silver flowers, but the perpetual brightness is real, continuing until sunrise.
Ji An released three magic techniques exclusive to Fire Element Plants; as usual, he rode the clouds in a circle, like a lion king surveying its territory.
Currently, there are thirty-two top-grade Red Cloud Pines, fully sufficient to meet the sect’s refining needs for Purple Flame Heart Protection Pill, with plenty left over.
The Gourd Field has disappeared, replaced by newly planted Red Cloud Pines.
Tier Two Lower Grade Purple Fire Gourd was already useless to him; even if he cultivated Tier Two Middle Grade Spirit Gourds, they seemed not very useful.
Therefore, he stopped planting them, only keeping a batch of Tier Two seeds stored.
Ji An landed beside the Fire Crystal Ants’ nest and opened the Mimic Array to enter the Lava Cave.
The lotus leaves of the Cyan Leaf Red Lotus showed signs of wilting due to their Life Force being drained by the Cyan Lotus Heart-Burning Fire, indicating that the maturity of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire is getting closer.
After the lotus leaves wilt, the lotus seedpod will truly enter its maturity.
The Phoenix Wood is now cultivated to a tier of Tier One Top Grade, with pale golden feather-like patterns appearing more lively.
Ji An successively cast Azure Dragon Shocking Skill, Zhurong Divine Fire Spell, and Yellow Dragon Essence Enhancement Skill; the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire flared on the lotus seedpod, greedily absorbing the magic intent and spirit light of the Divine Fire Spell.
When the golden flames faded, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire disappeared into the lotus seedpod, like a little glutton stealing bites.
Ji An often pondered what the three layers of fire of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire represented: green symbolizing Wood Element, red representing Fire Element, which is explainable due to the divine intent of both elements.
But what does white symbolize? White flames hold no divine intent of the Path of Gold, leaving him puzzled.
After casting spells, Ji An stepped out of the earth cave, riding clouds to the Copper Patterned Mulberry Field.
...
Silver light like the sea, golden light like the lake, adding an intriguing layer under the moonlight.
Ji An used a special technique to activate Azure Dragon Shocking Skill, a cyan light column shot straight to the sky, outshining the moonlight.
As the light column spread, the exuberant magic intent swept across this metal-textured field.
The golden leaves of Profound Leaf Sword Bamboo clashed against one another, emitting crisp sounds, while the palm-sized silver leaves of Copper Patterned Mulberry emitted sharp sound effects, like the clash of swords on the battlefield.
In this Spirit Field, there were nine Tier Two Upper Grade Copper Patterned Mulberries, with Mulberry Leaves especially provided to the Beast Taming Hall’s Tier Two Upper Grade Golden Silk Worms.
They were sometimes sold to fellow sect members to aid their cultivated silkworms in breaking through realms.
Twelve top-grade Profound Leaf Sword Bamboo plants produced two pounds of golden leaves annually, far less than middle-grade Spiritual Bamboo’s yield.
Since the leaves of top-grade Spiritual Bamboo require longer growing time, Ji An now annually harvests only one and a half pounds of golden leaves.
To keep more vitality in Spiritual Bamboo for tier enhancement, he doesn’t lack small merits and doesn’t need to sacrifice the growth of Spirit Wood.
...
Dahuang was snoring loudly in the nest, making Ji An chuckle; this fellow’s life was certainly regular!
Every time he passed by here at night, the Rock Armor Bear was always asleep.
Now, Dahuang was already a demon beast at the Eighth Layer Foundation Establishment Stage.
He greeted many fellow sect members at the Chao Origin Stage, expressing willingness to exchange Tier Two Middle Grade Jade Dew Golden Bud for slaying a Chao Origin Stage demon beast.
Afterwards, he received demon beast meat several times, using it to feed Dahuang, Golden Fur, and Golden Feathered Eagle.
Currently, the Golden Feathered Eagle has reached the Fifth Layer Foundation Establishment, while Golden Fur has reached the Seventh Layer Foundation Establishment.
