Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

Zhang He sat on the shore and drank a lot of spiritual spring water. The unbearable heat felt a little better, but it was still very difficult to restore mana here.

Because he always needs to allocate a large amount of mana to fight against the scorching heat here. With an increase and decrease, he can only barely maintain a balance.

Seeing this, he opened and closed his mind to contact the clone in the space. When the clone's consciousness moved, his body and the Five Elements Mountain were taken into the space.

In the past, it was very difficult for him to move his body in and out of space, because no matter how strong a person was, he could not lift himself, no matter how high he stood, he could not bite his nose, and no matter how fast he ran, he could not escape the shadow behind him.

Each time, a ray of spiritual consciousness needs to be separated and put into the space as a coordinate, and then this ray of spiritual consciousness is allowed to pull the body into the space, and the same goes for coming out of the space.

This is time-consuming and labor-intensive and inefficient.

It's different now that you have a clone. You can let the clone pull the main body in, and it can be done easily.

As soon as Zhang He entered the space, he found that the temperature in the space had increased a lot.

The source of the heating is the pile of hot purple-red obsidian, which is constantly steaming.

Fortunately, the space seems to have a self-regulating function. A large amount of heat energy is absorbed by the space and then converted into space aura.

Otherwise, the heat of this large pile of obsidian would be enough to burn three acres of space to bare land.

Seeing this, Zhang He wondered if he could get two handfuls of firewood in and try burning them in the future.

But now it is better to seize the time to restore mana.

He took out a pill bottle from the storage bag, poured out a Yangyuan Pill, swallowed it, and then sat cross-legged next to the Space Spiritual Spring to practice and refine.

This bottle of elixir was originally obtained from the treasure house of Ningjing County. His own elixir was still a little old and could not be refined yet.

The elixir slowly melted in the belly, and the newly generated mana was quickly absorbed by the golden elixir to make up for the previous consumption.

Zhang He's golden elixir is much larger than that of ordinary people, and the magic power contained in it is also much higher than that of ordinary people. In battle, the magic power is deeper, so he naturally takes advantage of it.

It's just that it's not easy to fill up the missing mana now. It requires more mana and takes more time.

Even after all the Yuan Yang Dan was refined, his mana was only restored to about half.

This kind of Yangyuan Pill is originally an auxiliary training medicine. It is slow to restore mana and does not contain a lot of spiritual energy.

Zhang He meditated in the space for two or three days before sitting up from the edge of the spiritual spring. At this moment, all his mana was finally restored.

After carrying several large bottles of spiritual spring water with him, the clone kicked himself out of the space.

On the originally deserted lava river bank, Zhang He's figure suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Zhang He just showed his face, and his face was almost burned. He could only immediately use the Five Elements Mountain, releasing a large amount of water vapor to form a shield outside the body to wrap himself.

At this time, Zhang He turned his attention to the black tree on the bank of the river.

The black branches are sparse, and there are only a few scattered leaves. The four fruits hanging on the tree are one large and three small, and they seem to taste pretty good.

Zhang He approached the black tree again, and his hands sizzled when he touched the trunk. The temperature on the trunk was even higher than that in the lava.

I endured the scorching heat and climbed up the branches. After some hardships, I climbed to the top of the black tree and successfully approached the largest fruit.

This fruit looks bright red and crystal clear, and there seems to be fire flowing inside.

He gently touched the fruit with his hand, and the fruit immediately fell off the branch. He opened and closed his eyes quickly and grabbed it with one hand.

It seemed that this fruit was also overripe. If he hadn't arrived in time, he would have fallen into the lava river.

The fruit is not as hot as expected when held in the hand, but feels very warm and comfortable.

Holding the fruit in his hand, he continued to climb the branch next to him. There were still three fruits left. He had to take a look.

When he got close to another smaller fruit, he reached out and grabbed the fruit, but he let out a scream when it was burned.

It turns out that the temperature on this small fruit is surprisingly high, and it cannot be picked off. The dark branch is also very strong and keeps breaking.

In desperation, he looked at the other two. They were all the same, so he could only get down from the tree in frustration.

At this time, he put the Five Elements Mountain under his buttocks and sat on the shore to look at the fruit carefully.

It is about the size of an egg, crystal clear, and exudes a strange sweet aroma, which is very tempting and makes people want to swallow it in one bite.

Moreover, he also found that the fruit showed signs of melting in the moment he held it in his hand. The edges became very soft and seemed to be broken when touched. A little juice had already flowed out, making the palm of his hand feel warm.

Just as Zhang He was observing the spirit fruit in his hand, a red ant the size of a thumb with two wings on its back crawled to his feet.

"Hmm! Can ants survive in a place like this?"

Zhang He stretched out a finger to pick at the ant on the ground, but saw the ant immediately opened its fangs and bit him. He was so frightened that he quickly retracted his finger and almost got bitten.

Although the ant didn't look that big, he didn't want to be bitten by it for nothing. What if it was poisonous?

Immediately, he used a ball of mana to condense into his hand and grabbed it.

This ant was quite aggressive and rushed at his big aura hand with great strength. After finding that the collision was ineffective, it started to bite the big aura hand again.

At this moment, there was a sound of crickets chirping around him. Zhang He glanced with his consciousness and found that he was surrounded by these red ants.

At this time, he was about to crush the red ant to death with his strong spiritual energy.

"boom!"

This red ant was as strong as fire and exploded directly in his hand. Moreover, the power of the self-destruction was not small, and it scattered a lot of his aura palm.

Zhang He didn't have time to marvel at the red ants' self-destruction at this moment, but the surroundings were already surrounded by dense red ants.

If all these red ants surrounded him and exploded, they would probably kill him based on the power just now.

Immediately, he found a box to put the red fruit in, then offered the Five Elements Mountain as a sacrifice, slowly rotating it above his head, emitting a curtain of water to wrap himself in it.

At the same time, a flying sword was slashed out, cutting a long ravine on the ground, and many red ants were killed along the way.

Many of the red ants remembered to explode themselves before dying, blasting many small gaps in his flying sword.

"Boom boom boom..."

As his flying sword slashed left and right, the self-destruction sound of red ants also continued to sound.

After a while, Zhang He's flying sword was completely scrapped. Part of it melted due to the high temperature here, and part of it was damaged by the self-explosion of red ants.

At this time, he could only use the Five Elements Mountain to bombard the red ants one by one. In this way, the Five Elements Mountain had to defend and attack at the same time, which was a little concerned with one thing and the other.

The number of red ants is increasing, and they are not afraid of death. They show their teeth and claws, and some can even spit out flames.

After all, he couldn't stop them all. A large number of red ants had surrounded him from the ground and the air.

A large number of red ants climbed onto his protective water curtain and gnawed at it, causing the water curtain to soon fail.

In the end, Zhang He could only give in to a group of red ants and let his clone pull him into the space.

After entering the space, I felt relaxed all over. Not a single red ant was left crawling on my body, and I finally got rid of it.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and now he could finally take a closer look at the red fruit.

There had been no sign of red ants before. As soon as he picked the fruit, a large number of red ants appeared, and they all came towards him.

He guessed that these red ants were coming for the red fruit in his hand.

When he took out the jade box and opened it, he was a little dumbfounded. The egg-sized fruit had now completely dissolved into a liquid state and seemed to have reduced a lot.

If you observe carefully with your spiritual consciousness, you can still find that the pool of liquid in the jade box is still slowly dissipating and decreasing.

Faced with this situation, Zhang He just wanted to use up the liquid quickly. He couldn't just watch it dissipate like this.

But he knew nothing about this spiritual fruit, and he didn't know if he could eat it.

With the magic of this black tree, the fruits it bears will definitely not be too bad, and I really don’t want to waste it.

The red liquid in the jade box was still slowly dissipating and decreasing, not slowing down at all according to his will.

At this time, Zhang He made a bold decision. He stretched out a finger, dipped a little sticky liquid into his finger dust, and gently put it into his mouth to taste it first.

The taste is sweet but not greasy, with a strange aroma in the mouth, and a little bit hot, but there is no other reaction.

After carefully feeling the changes in my body, there seemed to be nothing wrong.

One mouthful may not be enough, so he dipped a little with his finger and put it in his mouth, took another bite, and then used his energy to feel the changes.

He has Nascent Soul-level consciousness and can sense every change in his body. If it is poisonous, his consciousness will naturally be able to detect it.

Next, he tasted the left and right mouthfuls continuously, and he tasted all the red liquid.

I just wanted to taste it, but I finished it all before I knew it.

It's like I just planned to hang out outside, but accidentally slipped in.

Zhang He stretched out his tongue and licked a little viscous liquid remaining at the bottom of the jade box. His tongue was relatively long and the tip of his tongue was very dexterous. He could take care of all the corners. It tasted really good.

After eating all the liquid that the red spirit fruit turned into, streams of warm energy circulated around him, improving his physical body.

There was no pain in this process. He just felt refreshed and more sensitive to the aura floating in the air.

Especially for fire-attributed auras, there seems to be an innate affinity.

As long as he absorbed it for a moment, the fire-attribute aura around him would happily rush towards him like a biological son.

Now it has become particularly easy for him to absorb or mobilize fire-attribute spiritual energy.

It seems that the effect of this spiritual fruit is to greatly increase the monk's qualifications for cultivating immortals in the fire attribute.

This is already an extremely incredible effect.

A monk's training qualifications are predetermined at birth and cannot be changed the day after tomorrow.

He has now greatly improved his qualifications in the fire attribute. If this matter spreads, countless immortal cultivators will definitely break their heads and take back this dark tree.

After Zhang He finished eating the liquid transformed from the spirit fruit, he wandered in the space for a while. The large pile of obsidian from before had been put away by his clone.

There is ready-made jade in the space. Ten jade boxes are made from the jade, all the obsidians are put in them, and the sealing talisman is affixed to the outside.

The mandala that was transplanted into the space some time ago has fully grown, and it has grown a little more these days, growing several leaves that are larger than a palm.

Then he and his clone specially cleared a wide area in the space, and he was going to transplant the dark tree into the space.

There may be only one such precious and rare tree in the entire world of immortality. If it is left here to fend for itself, what if it is eaten by snakes, insects, rats and ants?

This is a precious treasure in the world of immortality. Now that he has seen it, he has the obligation to transplant it into space and protect it well.

After staying in the space for about a day, Zhang He reappeared on the bank of the lava river. The red ants that had previously surrounded him had disappeared, and the river bank became bare again.

Only the black tree still stood alone on the river bank.

Zhang He appeared again in this underground world of molten magma, but his feeling was very different from before. The burning sensation disappeared.

Now he no longer needs the Five Elements Mountain defense and can walk directly on the river bank.

After losing the defense of Five Elements Mountain, the clothes on his body caught fire one by one and turned into ashes in a moment, but his body did not suffer any damage.

After Zhang He's robe was burned, he walked naked on the river bank.

He no longer felt unstoppable heat, breathing in the rich fire aura around him, he felt very comfortable, as if the fish had finally returned to the sea.

He approached the black tree and stroked the trunk. It felt warm and comfortable. Looking at the surging lava river below, he now wanted to jump in and swim back and forth a few times with his dog planing skills.

But let’s get down to business. Let’s transplant the tree first.

The place where the tree took root was all hard rock. He could only use his magic flying sword to chop and dig on the rock.

These rocks have been repeatedly washed away by rivers of lava, and have long since become harder than steel.

His magical flying sword was chopped on it for a while, and it was soon scrapped. He had to replace it with a new flying sword.

Next, Zhang He used up two magical flying swords and six magical flying swords before finally digging a big hole on the river bank and digging out the black tree by the roots.

With a wave of his hand, he took the black tree into the space, and then the clone in the space moved his mind and dragged the main body in.

A large pit has already been dug in the space. The black tree will be planted in it, and then it will be covered with soil and poured with some spiritual spring water.

The spiritual spring water sizzled when it encountered high temperatures, but it was still absorbed by the black tree.

Judging from the growth environment of the black tree, it should grow near the magma to absorb the heat in the magma as nutrients.

There is no such heat in the space for the black tree to absorb.

This is just like before, the space can absorb the heat emitted by obsidian and convert it into spiritual energy.

Similarly, the aura in the space can also be converted into fire energy to supply the growth of the black tree.
