Rising from Small Cloud Rain Technique

He sank his mind into the dantian, connected with the Stone Turtle, entered the Gourd World, and then extracted the harvest from this trip and placed it into the Grotto Void Stone.

He took out five thousand catties of Pearl Blood Rice. He originally planned to sell a batch in Red Rock Immortal City to disrupt Sunx’s Spiritual Rice Shop’s business, but unfortunately, he only had over six thousand catties of rice on hand, not enough to even annoy them.

He picked out a dozen Tier One Upper Grade Fire Coral, intending to transplant them into the Lava Cave.

A new swarm of Spirit Devouring Insects split off, and the insect tower, only four feet tall, was placed into the Spirit Beast Bag. This was excellent Spirit Fish fodder, though he wondered how they would fare at Red Flame Peak.

The spirit vein quality here was higher, theoretically allowing the insect swarm to proliferate faster, but it was uncertain.

In the Gourd World, there is a Heaven and Earth Spirit Root, an advantage unavailable at Red Flame Peak.

No one knows what role the Gathering Essence Tree plays in the growth of the Spirit Devouring Insect swarm.

The Treasure Dragon Fish was a major find. Ji An took out two palm-length ones and prepared to see if they could survive in the Cold Pool.

If they couldn’t be kept alive, their bodies would need to be incinerated.

The Celestial Soaring Armor on the Zhang Cultivator could be sold to Senior Brother Zhuu to see if he was interested.

After bringing out all the things that could be revealed, Ji An stepped out of the grotto mansion with an elated expression.

Clouds of Chi Yun rolled beneath his feet as he flew to the Cold Pool.

Lin Lan stepped forward, smiling:

"Master, do you need me to show you around?"

She and her junior brother took turns waiting at Red Flame Peak every day, just awaiting their master’s inquiries.

Ji An smiled, "Not this time. I’ll inspect things personally and then listen to your report on the harvest over these years."

He didn’t want them to find out about the Treasure Dragon Fish breeding, nor could the growth location of the Cyan Leaf Red Lotus be exposed; he could only handle it himself.

Both disciples were now at the Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishment, needing to break through to the Chao Origin Stage before they could access deeper secrets.

He paused and added, "Tell Xue Ning to prepare a sumptuous spiritual meal, we’ll have a good drink tonight."

The last brunch was eaten in haste, but this time he wanted to carefully recollect the taste of the spiritual food at Red Flame Peak.

"Okay, Master. Various high-end materials have been prepared ever since you returned."

"Great. I’m looking forward to the abundance of the evening meal. By the way, how long have I slept?"

"Three days and two nights."

Ji An chuckled lightly, "The double hour surely isn’t short. After I left, has Red Flame Peak cultivated any Tier Two Top-grade Spirit Plants?"

Lin Lan shook her head awkwardly, "Just cultivated some Tier Two Upper Grade Spirit Plants."

Red Flame Peak’s spiritual vein was at the Tier Two Top-Grade level, but they hadn’t managed to cultivate top-grade spirit plants, making her feel rather embarrassed.

But this is the usual situation for spirit farmers—if the spirit vein reaches a certain tier, that doesn’t mean the spirit wood cultivated can reach the same level, otherwise, the high-tier resource shortage in the Cultivation Realm would be greatly alleviated.

Ji An nodded slightly, growing increasingly confident in his hypothesis; to cultivate high-tier spirit wood, higher-level planting techniques must be employed to break a certain growth limitation of the spirit wood.

Otherwise, it can only be achieved through the accumulation of a long time to cultivate the spirit wood to a higher level.

He waved a hand, "You go ahead, I’ll go perform spells for the Spirit Field."

...

Above the two-mu Water Element Spirit Plant Garden by the Cold Pool, Ji An rode the clouds, surveying.

In his view, the light emitted by spirit woods of various tiers differed significantly, making them easy to distinguish.

Now there are two Tier Two Upper Grade spirit woods, both Celestial Essence Pear; Canglan Spirit Mist Tree was covered in a mist, but it was untraceable to him, only at Tier Two Middle Grade.

He sequentially released the Azure Dragon Shocking Skill and Cloud Dragon Rain Technique, amidst the dragon’s roar, while the grey-feathered sand geese expressed excitement with their honking, a sound long unheard.

Ji An pulled out the Water-Resistant Bead, swiftly diving into the Cold Pool, and as he descended, he threw out two Treasure Dragon Fish.

The rest depends on their fortunes, hoping they can survive.

The Pure Water Lotus swayed underwater, surrounded by a large school of fish. When Ji An arrived, they moved away but not too far, continuing to linger just outside the Water-Resistant Bead’s influence range.

The Cyan Water Turtle was also here, its shell had grown much larger, and judging by the strength of the demon qi it emitted, it had become a formidable demon beast at the Sixth-Layer Foundation Establishment.

This was unexpected for Ji An; it seemed the Pure Water Lotus had an unforeseen effect.

Ji An reached out to touch the stem of the spirit plant, feeling its life force, and discovered it had been cultivated to Tier Two Middle Grade, quite good.

He employed the Spell, similarly releasing the Azure Dragon Shocking Skill and Cloud Dragon Rain Technique.

The vigorous growth magic intent and the nourishing purification magic intent intertwined, causing the Pure Water Lotus to gently sway.

The Cyan Water Turtle conveyed happiness through spiritual communication but remained a retracted turtle, lying there motionless.

Ji An chuckled, flicking its shell lightly a few times, then quickly floated back up.

Lan Bei poked its head out, mouthed a few words, then resumed being a retracted turtle.

...

In the Fire Element Spirit Plant Garden, fruit was plentiful. Ji An paced with his hands behind his back, his smile increasingly genuine.

The Tier Two Upper Grade Spirit Peach Trees numbered twenty-four, ten Top-Grade Dragon Blood Trees, but no Tier Two Upper Grade Spiritual Apricot plants—perhaps there never would be.

Two Top-Grade Spirit Peach Trees, one Top-Grade Dragon Blood Tree—the same quantity as when he left.

After inspecting the garden, he employed the Azure Dragon Shocking Skill, blanketing the land with cyan-colored brilliance, overshadowing the setting sun’s radiance.

Grass and wildflower shadows appeared on the ground, and a faint fragrance spread, the second transformation of magic intent offered auditory, visual, and gustatory effects.

Then, Ji An cast the Zhurong Divine Fire Spell.

A fiery human-like Fire God’s phantom emerged above the orchard.

The scarlet phantom rendered the area a sea of fire, and Ji An sensed a unique vitality surging through the spirit plants.

His brows furrowed, and a realization dawned in his heart.

Ding Fire was the Warm Spirit Fire, according to the Stone Turtle’s Dao Seed description; the reason for this evaluation was that it stimulated the Yang’s Spirituality within life.

Yang births, Yin dies. Yang represents the ascension of life’s spirituality, while Yin equates to the tranquility and peace after death.

This ’death’ isn’t literal but refers to the dissipation of life’s aura.

As this realization arose, Ji An’s spirit seemed to elevate infinitely at that moment, overlooking the world.

He saw the entire Red Flame Peak, observed everything within a hundred miles of its vicinity, every detail, and it felt as if a profound sound was resonating in heaven and earth, akin to waking the ignorant with morning bells and evening drums.

Suddenly, his spirit experienced a rapid descent, making his body shake several times, almost collapsing.

This sensation came suddenly and left quickly, and as Ji An steadied himself, he laughed loudly three times; after many years, he had finally experienced another epiphany!

After comprehending the Fire-Born Earth Divine Intent, his understanding of the Dao of Fire Element had deepened, a burst following years of accumulation.

The Ding Fire Dao Seed flowed out from the Celestial Pool Acupoint, following the Immortal Vein and entering the Fire Element Divine Mansion, and the pattern on the mansion’s surface instantly became brighter.

His divine sense was drawn into the Stone Turtle World, where lines of text appeared in the depths of the sea.

[Dao Seed: Wood Fire (Upper Grade), hidden in the Heart Fire Mansion, comprehend Ding Fire’s ’Yang Spirit Fire’ True Intent, enhances comprehension of Ding Fire Dao techniques.]

Joy filled Ji An’s heart; reaching upper grade for another Dao Seed meant the Zhurong Divine Fire Spell’s effect would now reach the Golden Core technique level.

This technique was for planting; for a cultivation force, its impact far surpassed a Metal Dao Seed reaching upper grade.

Not to mention, the Fire Element Spirit Plants were in for a treat!

The Spirit Peach, Dragon Blood Tree, Spiritual Apricot, Phoenix Wood, Red Cloud Pine, Jade Flame Purple Spirit Gourd, even Profound Yang Wood would greatly benefit.

’Should I stay at the sect longer before venturing out, if Tier Two Top-grade Fire Spirit Plants could be cultivated...’

Ji An’s breathing became rapid; if things developed as he hoped, the strength of Red Flame Peak and even the entire sect would see great progress.

Soon after, he calmed down, chuckling to himself and shaking his head.

’Do not delight in things, nor mourn them; my mindset still falls short!’

He had lamented this many times before, and it seems further refinement is still necessary.

He decided to follow his original plan, at most resting at the sect for a year, then heading to the Southern Continent to seek suitable locations to comprehend the other two types of Five Elements Mutual Generation Divine Intent.

Having made his decision, Ji An’s mood quickly settled down, and he employed the Yellow Dragon Essence Enhancement Skill.

The depths of the earth trembled violently, and the surface glowed with gentle yellow light.

As the light spread, fish-scale patterns emerged on the soil, spreading the nurturing Ji Earth Divine Intent.
