Chapter 72(1/2)
As soon as he entered this place, the Earth Spirit Ruler in Fan Ming's hand began to vibrate more and more violently. If Fan Ming had reacted and grasped it firmly, he would have let it go.
Although this place is not comparable to the caves of the deacons or elders of the Spiritual Medicine Sect, it is enough for Fan Ming at present.
The concentration of spiritual energy here is enough to allow him to practice at a steady pace until he reaches the peak of energy refining. As for building the foundation, he will naturally have to change to the cave, but for Fan Ming, that may be a long time later.
After deciding to open a cave here, Fan Ming immediately used the tunnel he created to expand it.
Of course, the core of the cave must be the newly discovered natural cave of about ten feet.
After resting on the spot for a while, Fan Ming used the passage and cave as the basis, controlled the "mountain opener" with one hand, and manipulated another magical tool that was just taken out from the storage bag with the other hand, and used a two-pronged approach.
Carry out the "great cause" of opening up caves.
Thanks to the use of professional tools, after half a night's hard work, a cave dwelling covering a large area began to take shape. Fan Ming opened a total of ten rooms of different sizes according to his own ideas, and two rooms covering an area of the ground.
Mu's Hall.
However, only half of the work has been done at this step, because the cave walls of these houses are still very rough and have not undergone any fine processing. If we stop here, many problems will occur in the future.
Fan Ming never likes to put things off, so he simply finished all the work at once today.
So, after taking a brief rest, Fan Ming started working on the details again.
First of all, these houses look quite good, but if there is any heavy rain, earthquake or other disasters, this place will suffer at any time.
Things like water leakage are trivial matters. Fan Ming is not a professional after all, but his intuition tells Fan Ming that his cave is not stable, and it is possible that a small vibration will cause the cave to collapse.
Therefore, reinforcement work needs to be carried out.
Compared with the work of opening up the cave just now, this reinforcement work is much easier.
Because there is a special material in the world of immortality that can strengthen the cave, prevent water leakage, and even lock the spiritual energy within this space to the greatest extent.
The name of this material is Liuhe soil. It is easy to see from the name that this material is made by mixing and refining six kinds of things.
Fan Ming inquired and found out that the Liuhe soil was said to be mixed with the feces of an earth spirit animal. Fan Ming found it difficult to accept it at first, but the finished product of Liuhe soil looked strange in appearance and had no peculiar smell.
, and considering its functions...it is actually not that difficult to accept.
This Liuhe soil does not need to be manually applied bit by bit like cement. A very magical thing about it is that this Liuhe soil only needs to be in direct contact with soil, rocks and the like, and it will automatically blend into the soil or rocks.
, thereby changing the nature of a place.
A fist-sized ball of Liuhe soil can change a room.
Within half an hour, Fan Ming completed the work.
Fan Ming also tried it specifically, using a mountain opener to try to destroy a rock that had been transformed by Liuhe soil. As a result, the mountain opener, which was originally unfavorable for breaking through the mountain, almost broke after hitting the rock that had been transformed by Liuhe soil.
.
"This Liuhe soil is indeed worthy of its reputation!" Fan Ming couldn't help but sigh.
It's so strong that it would take a lot of effort for him to destroy it.
After strengthening the cave, there is only one last piece of work left to complete the opening of the cave.
Fan Ming first took out eight small flags and a dozen low-level spiritual stones, and then set up a relatively simple concealment array according to the method once taught by Lin Henian, completely covering the exit with the array. In this way
Come on, from the outside it is still a complete mountain wall, and you can't even notice that there is an extra cave.
This step is very necessary. If you want to avoid being disturbed by outsiders, you must at least hide the cave. Otherwise, any cat or dog can find your cave, and you will not be able to practice with peace of mind.
Then Fan Ming took out six more flags, a few spiritual stones and a jade slip...
As mentioned before, when the inner sect disciple opens a cave for the first time, the sect will give him a spirit gathering array as a gift.
And this is the spirit gathering array that Fan Ming received from the sect.
According to the method on the jade slip, a small spirit gathering array was placed inside the hidden trace array. In this way, Fan Ming's cultivation progress will be on the fast track for a long time to come.
After completing the spirit gathering formation, Fan Ming originally wanted to try it out immediately, but then he realized that he seemed to have left a bed for himself when he opened the cave.
Fortunately, this kind of thing is quite simple. Fan Ming found a larger and relatively compact rock, and then used the Feijian Fujian to carve out a simple stone bed.
After the stone bed was cut, Fan Ming immediately climbed up and started his first practice after owning the cave...
When Fan Ming opened his eyes again, it was already completely bright.
Of course, you can't see the sunlight outside in the cave. Fan Ming only found out that it was dawn after walking out of the cave.
After taking a breath of fresh air from the outside world, Fan Ming couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
This spirit gathering array is really powerful, and the concentration of spiritual energy in this place is higher than where he used to live. Fan Ming actually feels that just three or four hours of practice is worth half a day's work.
This "Dharma and Wealth Earth Couple" is indeed an indispensable thing on the path of cultivation. Just by simply changing the place of cultivation, there is such a big difference in the speed of cultivation.
Fan Ming suddenly felt that the two and a half years of practicing at the foot of the mountain were a waste of life. This is the real cultivation...
Of course, Fan Ming also knew that even if he practiced in this cave from the beginning, his cultivation progress would not be much faster.
Because the concentration of spiritual energy is one thing, and the speed at which you absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is another.
In fact, before the fifth level of Qi refining, Fan Ming did not feel that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was thin in the original place, because during cultivation, Fan Ming could feel that the spiritual energy absorbed in the spiritual roots was always in a saturated state.
It was not until the fifth level of Qi refining that Fan Ming gradually realized that the original place was not suitable for his cultivation, because the concentration of spiritual energy around him during cultivation was not enough to keep his spiritual roots in a full state at all times.
It was only after that that Fan Ming clearly realized the importance of spiritual energy concentration. If he continued to practice in a place with low spiritual energy concentration for such a long time, he would probably not be able to build a foundation before the age of sixty.
Even though it only took him less than three years to cultivate to the seventh level of Qi Refining, you must know that the time it takes to break through to each small level is longer than the time it took to break through to the previous level.
It takes a lot longer, especially during the Qi refining period, every time you break through the fourth level, you will encounter a larger bottleneck, which will seriously affect the progress of your cultivation.
Many monks with low spiritual roots are like this. Because they don’t have a suitable place to practice, they never reach the thirteenth level of Qi refining until they die, let alone build a foundation...
Thinking of this, Fan Ming couldn't help but feel grateful for his decision to join the Spiritual Medicine Sect.
If he were a casual cultivator now, it would be difficult to find a suitable place to open a cave in the outside world...
Fan Ming shook his head and stopped thinking about this kind of thing that never happened.
He still has some things to do today.
After leaving his residence, Fan Ming flew towards a place outside the sect...
◇◇◇◇◇◇
Soon after, Fan Ming appeared near a small canyon.
It was the same canyon where he had bumped into Lou Hengrong threatening Wang Shujun... and it was also the canyon where he secretly placed the spiritual soil.
Today he is not here to take care of the spiritual plants that he secretly planted here, but to transfer the spiritual plants and spiritual soil that he has cultivated over the past two years to his cave.
After all, we already have our own cave, so it would be inappropriate to leave these precious spiritual plants and spiritual soil outside.
Although in the past two years, Fan Ming has not discovered that a fourth person has set foot here except Lou Hengrong and Wang Shujun, this does not mean that this place is safe.
Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the unexpected!
Fan Ming finally decided to take all these spiritual soils and spiritual plants back to his cave.
This decision was made yesterday, so when opening the cave, Fan Ming specially made a place for these spiritual soil and spiritual plants. He only needed to bring these things back and place them.
So, after making sure that there was no one else within a few miles, Fan Ming began the transfer work.
I saw him taking out a jade shovel from the storage bag, carefully shoveling out the spiritual plants that he had planted before, together with the spiritual soil below, one by one, and then transferred them to an empty
In the spirit beast bag.
Because for some unknown reason, living objects cannot be placed in the storage bag, even plants. Plants will lose their activity soon after entering the storage bag, so they can only be placed in the spirit animal bag.
This spirit beast bag can naturally hold ordinary items, but its storage capacity is much worse than that of a storage bag, so the spirit plant cannot be left for too long after being placed in the spirit beast bag, otherwise the spirit plant may be damaged.
Therefore, Fan Ming did not dare to delay, and speeded up as much as possible while being careful.
Less than half an hour later, Fan Ming put all the spiritual plants into the spirit beast bag.
Although there was still some spiritual soil that had not been taken away at the scene, due to time constraints, Fan Ming did not dare to waste any more time collecting all the spiritual soil. He could only wait for the second trip to collect the remaining spiritual soil.
.
Anyway, the remaining spiritual soil should not be discovered for a while.
So Fan Ming turned around and left.
However, shortly after Fan Ming left, a black shadow emerged from somewhere in the canyon...
◇◇◇◇◇◇
After Fan Ming returned to the cave, he immediately took out the spiritual plants and spiritual soil from the spirit beast bag, and then placed them in the hall that had been prepared in advance and occupied an area of more than an acre.
Among the spaces opened by Fan Ming last night, there are only two halls with an area of more than one acre, and one of them is the place reserved for Lingzhi.
This is the only place in the cave opened by Fan Ming where sunlight can shine in.
Although some spiritual plants do not need sunlight to grow, these spiritual plants planted by Fan Ming all need sunlight, so he deliberately created such a place.
After placing all the spiritual plants and spiritual soil, Fan Ming checked it carefully. Sure enough, some of the relatively fragile spiritual plants had been damaged, but fortunately it was not serious. They should be able to survive with their self-repair ability.
Of course, it is normal not to survive. Fan Ming is already prepared to bear some losses.
After doing all the necessary work, Fan Ming walked out of the cave.
Then he raised his head and glanced at the sky, it was still early.
