Longevity begins with Zongmen handyman

Chapter 3 Longevity Species
At dusk, a group of handymen climbed up to the mountain gate panting.

The disciples riding the white eagle arrived early and were selected by the deacons and elders of the outer sect. When Li An and others arrived, Wang Dazhu and others were nowhere to be seen.

"Next, I will make an assignment for you,"

The fairy leader who was in charge of leading them up the mountain said, "Zhang Susu and Wang Zilin have miscellaneous spiritual roots of the wood attribute and are responsible for cultivating spiritual plants. Lu Yishan and Guo Mang have miscellaneous spiritual roots of the fire attribute and are responsible for forging iron..."

After reading everything, the fairy elder paused again, "Li An, the non-attribute spiritual root..."

His eyes fell on Li An: "Where do you want to go?"

Among the many chores, Li Anlingen is the most special.

Therefore, the fairy elder didn't bother to think about his whereabouts, and Li An actually had the power to choose.

Li An's heart moved, "Disciple is willing to cultivate spiritual plants!"

Being a husband of Lingzhi is the most suitable for practicing his formula of nourishing life and casting immortals.

"Okay, whatever you want, deacons, please take your people away."

After the fairy chief finished speaking, seven or eight fairy chiefs came up next to him, and took his people away according to the distribution.

"Zhang Susu, Wang Zilin, and Li An, right? You three, follow me!"

A middle-aged man said that he was Fan Jie, the deacon of "Lingzhi Mountain", and he was also a registered disciple!
Fan Jie was tall and big, with a pot belly, he glanced at the three of them, and stayed on Zhang Susu for a while.

Although Zhang Susu is just a miscellaneous spirit root, but she was born in a secular and powerful family in Tianyang County. She looks very handsome and has a good figure. She looks like a beautiful woman, second only to Mu Qingwan.

He nodded in satisfaction.

……

Xuanyang Sect is one of the seven sects of cultivating immortals in the Dali Dynasty, sitting on dozens of miles of mountains.

Lingzhi Mountain is located in the remote northern mountains. The slopes here are relatively gentle, full of spiritual energy, and there are hundreds of acres of spiritual fields between the hillsides!

"It's so beautiful here!"

Zhang Susu couldn't help exclaiming, at first glance, the scenery of Lingzhi Mountain is very beautiful.

"What a strong aura!"

Wang Zilin was born at the bottom, and he was very pleasantly surprised at the moment.

Living here with such a strong aura is of great benefit to cultivation.

Only Li An secretly complained.

After all, so many places...

I'm afraid I really want to be a cow and a horse?
Fan Jie took them up to Lingzhi Mountain, where there are some houses for the handymen to live in.

Halfway down the mountain, there are spiritual fields for planting Lingmi, Lingdou and other crops, while halfway up, because of the steepness of the mountain, there is nothing to grow.

"These are some exercises, including breathing technique and cloud-distributing rain technique. Among them, breathing technique combined with spirit stones can allow you to quickly enter the Qi refining period, and cloud-distributing rain technique is the technique that you will use for farming in the future. Law."

Fan Jie stopped at the foot of the mountain, handed the three people each two bamboo slips, a small half piece of spiritual stone, and a small bag of spiritual rice, saying:

"Hurry up and practice, these spiritual plants are about to mature, and you only have one month to study, understand?"

All three showed joy, nodding like chickens pecking at rice.

"Go away, there are empty houses at the foot of the mountain, you choose a place to live in, there are handymen's uniforms in the room, and you will change into them from tomorrow!"

"Without my permission, you are not allowed to take a step up the mountain. If you dare to violate it, I will break your legs. Remember!"

After Fan Jie finished speaking, he walked up the mountainside by himself.

He lives on top of a mountain!
After he left, the three began to choose a place to live.

"Miss Susu, this house is the largest and has a small garden. It is the most suitable place for you to live in. What do you think?"

Wang Zilin took the initiative to give Zhang Susu the best house without asking Li An.

Zhang Susu was obviously quite satisfied with the residence, nodded and said: "Thank you, Senior Brother Zilin!"

Wang Zilin smiled: "We live closer, so that it will be convenient for us to communicate and practice in the future..."

He chose a residence next to Zhang Susu, and then proposed:
"Susu, Brother Li, how about we study the breathing technique and the technique of moving clouds and distributing rain together?"

Although he called Brother Li, he basically didn't look at Li An, only paying attention to Zhang Susu.

"Yes, if we study together, the progress will be faster!"

Zhang Susu also nodded, but looked at Li An expectantly.

Li An's non-attribute spiritual root is half higher than theirs, if Li An can practice with them, they can get some benefits more or less.

"Sorry, I'm a little tired and want to rest first."

Li An said lightly, and then found a secluded room by himself.

Both Zhang Susu and Zhang Susu were a little embarrassed.

"Heh, isn't it just a non-attribute spiritual root, what arrogance...isn't it the same as us now?"

Wang Zilin couldn't help but speak.

……

The living conditions of the handymen are very simple, but fortunately, pots and pans are all available, so there is no problem with basic living.

Li An put aside the breathing technique and the cloud-distributing rain technique, and took out the small bag of Lingmi!

Compared with Lingshi, Lingmi's main function is to satisfy hunger, and it comes with thin spirit energy. This small bag of Lingmi only weighs about one catty, which is enough for ordinary people to eat for a year!
Lingmi is very important for beginners and low-level practitioners, after all, low-level practitioners are not yet able to fast.

Moreover, you can use the spiritual energy in the spiritual rice to adapt to the exercises, and then use the spiritual stones to break through after you are familiar with the exercises, so as to avoid waste.

The room was full of pots and pans. Li An washed the pots, washed the rice, and lit the fire to cook. His movements were a little jerky.

The water vapor keeps breaking open the lid, carrying the unique fragrance of Lingmi.

When the rice is cooked, a big pot is full.

If others see it, they will definitely feel that it is outrageous, such a big pot is enough for dozens of people to eat!
Moreover, at the stage of first contact with practice, if you are not familiar with the exercises, a lot of spiritual energy will be wasted and cannot be used effectively.

Therefore, at the beginning, I always eat sparingly, with a maximum of [-] pills per meal.

Li An's pot is half a catty of rice.

The main reason why he dared to eat this way was because he would not waste his spiritual energy thanks to his experience in previous life.

He picked up a large bowl of spiritual rice and ate it slowly.

The throat kept surging, and the scented Lingmi filled the stomach sac. In Li An's mind, the formula of nourishing life and casting immortality slowly began to work.

At this moment, Li An's qi and blood circulated slowly, and a trace of spiritual mist was extracted from the spiritual rice.

Li An guided it several times, but the number of these spirit fogs was too scarce, and they would disperse as soon as they were driven away.

Li An was not in a hurry, he continued to chew and eat slowly, and continued to drive the formula of nourishing life and casting immortals.

The one-pot meal slowly bottomed out, and the mist in the body continued to accumulate, and finally there was a certain amount, which was introduced into the dantian by Li An.

"Certainly--"

Li An whispered, the mist condensed together and was absorbed by his dantian.

But still not much has changed.

Li An glanced at it, and felt a little pain in the moment, half of the small bag of Lingmi had gone!
However, he didn't care too much, and cooked the rest of it together.

After eating all.

Finally, in his dantian, a green sprout emerged.

This green bud emerged, and there seemed to be a hint of greenness in the dantian. Li An felt comfortable all over his body. The body that was injured by Lei Lingqi today was slowly being nourished.

"The long-lived species...successful!"

Li An was a little excited.

In the previous life, after he obtained this volume of exercises, he studied them countless times.

This life finally has the opportunity to practice.

Everything will fall into place.

"Longevity Seed is the core of cultivating the Immortal Art of Nourishing Life!"

"Connected to my life, the stronger the life seed, the stronger my vitality and the longer my lifespan will be!"

"Moreover, the uniqueness of the Art of Nourishing Life and Casting Immortals is that the seed of life is rooted in the dantian. After growing continuously, it can continuously nourish the body and gradually change one's spiritual root!"

Li An whispered.

This is the fundamental reason why he chose the Art of Nourishing Life and Casting Immortals.

As long as you have patience, develop steadily, rely on a life span beyond ordinary people, and a slowly changing spiritual root...there is only a glimmer of hope for the impact on the Nascent Soul in the future, or even a higher realm.

The lifespan of a cultivator is also limited. For example, during the Qi refining period, he can live up to two hundred years. If he cannot build a foundation, he will die of old age.

However, Li An estimated that if he practiced properly, he could live about [-] years old!
Directly increase the lifespan of 100 years.

Immediately afterwards, Li An couldn't help frowning again.

Now there is only one catty of Lingmi per month, and he doesn't know when the first leaf will come out from the seed of life.

The seed of life is his hope for repairing the spiritual root. Before the spiritual root is repaired, he cannot enter the Qi refining period.

However, in a month's time, he will be working in the clouds and rain. If he does not make a breakthrough by then, he will definitely be beaten, scolded and targeted by Fan Jie.

There is still a small piece of spirit stone left in his hand, but spirit stone is very precious, and the spirit energy contained in it is more abundant and pure than spirit rice, so it should be reserved for use when officially entering the first level of Qi training.

He thought for a while, in the spiritual field outside, the spiritual rice was almost mature...

However, there are formations to restrict and protect them, and no one can enter the spiritual field except during working hours.

"The formations and restrictions here should be relatively low-level, and can't reach the level of full coverage..."

Li An whispered that he had cultivated to the realm of alchemy in his previous life, and he had dabbled in formations, qi training, and alchemy.

He got up, boiled hot water, and took a nice hot bath in the wooden barrel. The smell of sweat and exhaustion of the day finally dissipated.

He changed into the Zongmen's miscellaneous uniform. The light gray uniform was moderately loose and made of fine linen. It was much more comfortable than the old civilian clothes he wore when he started.

Only then did I go to sleep.

……

In a blink of an eye, seven days passed.

During these seven days, Li An would go around outside from time to time to enjoy the scenery and familiarize himself with the terrain.

"I have finally entered the Qi refining period!"

Wang Zilin's voice of surprise came from outside.

Li An also went out for a walk while it was still dark, and saw Wang Zilin and Zhang Susu congratulating each other.

"Brother Li, you should have broken through too, right?"

Zhang Susu looked at Li An with beautiful eyes.

"not yet."

Li An was a little embarrassed, and said: "My body was injured by Lei Lingqi, and I have to take care of it for the time being..."

Hearing this, Zhang Susu's eyes turned and said: "Brother Li, don't worry, I still have some Lingmi here, I can give some to Brother Li..."

Although Lingmi is not a panacea, it can also nourish the body.

She was born in a secular and powerful family, and she knows how to make friends with others.

Don't look at Li An being injured now, but at least he has a non-attribute spiritual root, so there may not be no chance of rising in the future.

Li An thought for a while and said, "Then thank you Miss Susu."

He took a small handful of Lingmi from Zhang Susuyun, then turned around by himself and went back to the house.

There was a smile on the corner of Zhang Susu's mouth.

"Susu, this person doesn't know good from bad, why are you being so polite to him!"

On the other side, Wang Zilin couldn't help feeling a little bit resentful!

……

And inside the room.

Li An was very calm.

The Lingmi that Zhang Susu gave him was of no use to him, but he could only accept it.

Because he didn't want Zhang Susu to have a negative impression of him.

——Ling Zhishan is a female cultivator like Zhang Susu, who is born as beautiful as a flower.

Moreover, on the day Fan Jie picked them up, his gaze stayed on Zhang Susu for a long time, which meant that Li An could not fail to see it.

Whether active or passive, Zhang Susu will be Fan Jie's pillow sooner or later!
Owing her a small favor, it will be easier to get along with her in the future.

As for Wang Zilin... Li An didn't take it to heart at all.

For Wang Zilin to be so close to Zhang Susu, he is asking for death. Fan Jie will take care of him.

Ang Lee has only one thing on his mind right now.

Live steadily and steadily, and change the spiritual root!
Absolutely don't want to cause any extra complications and any risks.

Now he doesn't have any cultivation, and he doesn't have the ability to protect himself...too fragile.

……

It is late at night.

Li An quietly slipped out of the room.

According to the route determined during the past few days, he walked to the corner of the border between Lingtian and the mountain peak. Because of the criss-crossed and messy terrain, the restriction did not cover it!

This is due to his previous life experience, otherwise the flaws in this place, not to mention that he is just a handyman, even a named disciple like Fan Jie, would definitely not find it.

Leaping into the ridge of the field, raised his trouser legs, took off his shoes, stepped into the ditch, and followed the ditch into a fertile spiritual field.

Walk in the ditch without leaving footprints!

Moreover, mosquitoes breed in the ditches, and the few rows of spiritual rice that rely on the ditches are often eaten by insects and ants, and the yield is less, so no one will care.

Li An carefully rubbed off a few grains of unripe Lingmi from an ear of rice...
