Chapter 2 "The Sutra of Immortality"
Long Xuan spent the next period of time in the medicine garden, studying the optimal dosage and interval of use of each elixir of ripening liquid, and recorded the researched data on paper.
There are hundreds of kinds of elixirs in the medicine garden. This is destined to be a long process. Fortunately, there is a big white hen accompanying the medicine garden, so it is not boring.
This big hen is used to get rid of insects. If the crops are infested with insects, you need to use pesticides. The elixir will also infest the insects, so you need to buy insecticide powder from the chamber of commerce.
The original owner was taken care of by Mr. Long, so he completely let himself go and messed around in the medicine garden. He actually saved the spiritual stones for buying insect killer powder and bought a big hen.
It can be regarded as an accident. Chickens raised in rural areas have the ability to eliminate insects from crops. All villagers know this, but that is limited to ordinary crops.
How can the worms produced by the magical medicine be simple? It stands to reason that after the hen eats the spiritual worms, not only will it not be digested, but it will become parasitized.
But this hen not only survived after being languid for a period of time, but also evolved into a spiritual chicken and became a little expert in exterminating pests. The original owner was also lucky.
At this time, Long Xuan looked at the big white chicken walking around in the medicine garden and secretly said he was surprised.
The white chicken holds its head high and its chest high, with a majestic air. It shakes and shakes when walking, its head pops up and down, and its eyes are spiritual. It seems that its IQ has increased after evolving into a spiritual chicken.
It scratched back and forth in the ground, and after a while a big fat insect was scratched out of the soil by it, which was then swallowed by it.
The progress on the white chicken's head also instantly changed from 99.3% to 99.4%, and he was about to reach adulthood.
Seeing this scene, Long Xuan gently touched his chin, his eyes thoughtful.
A white chicken has eaten many things, but only a few fat worms will cause its maturity to change.
If you feed different foods to the spiritual chickens through this change, you can completely summarize the food that is most helpful to the spiritual chickens, and then prepare chicken feed that can greatly shorten the growth cycle of the spiritual chickens.
Of course, Long Xuan didn't want to make chicken feed. At this time, he thought of another function of the golden finger. In the same way, he thought of raising gu and insects.
The speed of raising money from cultivating spiritual insects is no worse than cultivating elixirs.
Spiritual insects are used to refine voodoo, and the higher the maturity, the higher the success rate of refining voodoo.
Rare spiritual insects are even more rare to find. Each one can be sold for a sky-high price, but few people know how to breed them.
The same kind of spiritual insect is raised by different Gu cultivator families, and its growth time is completely different.
Some Gu cultivator families use higher-grade feed, and their spiritual insect feeding time is several times shorter than that of other Gu cultivator families.
Of course, this Gu cultivator family is more profitable and has a larger profit margin. By lowering prices, it can completely overwhelm its peers and completely monopolize the insect species market.
As long as a good feed for a certain insect species is developed, it will be a huge profit.
At this moment, Long Xuan immediately had a plan to raise a kind of spiritual insect.
This is true for raising insects, let alone raising gu.
You must know that the more powerful the Gu species, the longer their maturation period will be. Many heaven-defying Gu species require thousands or even ten thousand years to mature. How can Gu cultivators wait for such a long time due to their short lifespan?
However, there is a huge difference in combat power between mature and larvae of Gu worms, so Gu cultivators had to try their best to develop ways to shorten the maturity period of Gu worms.
Often the method of raising a powerful voodoo species is much more precious than the voodoo recipe.
It is difficult to cultivate Gu, and even more difficult to raise Gu. Feeding consumes more resources than the cost of refining Gu.
Many Gu cultivators have spent their time studying methods to shorten the maturity period of Gu insects and have exhausted their resources.
But at this time, Long Xuan had no worries about this at all. No matter which Gu species he blood contracted in the future, he would be able to prepare the most suitable feed for it.
It is not a dream to shorten the mature Gu species that takes ten thousand years to a hundred years or even less than a hundred years. This is simply cheating. Long Xuan was excited.
“The ultimate use method of ripening liquid for each elixir has been studied almost. As long as the ripening liquid is used according to the method I recorded, the output of this medicine garden is enough to create another half of the profit.”
“With such a high share, I’ll have enough money to refine the first Gu worm.”
Long Xuan clenched his fists in excitement, his eyes shining brightly.
Excited, he reached into the chicken coop, ready to pull out a few spiritual eggs to celebrate.
Speaking of which, he was really curious about the taste of the eggs laid by the spiritual rooster. The spiritual eggs were round, smooth, white and large, rich in spiritual power and nutritious. They looked delicious at first glance, which made him greedy. However, as soon as his thief hand touched the round egg, the white chicken immediately noticed it, lowered its head and started to scratch at his hand.
“Go, go, let’s go…”
…
Spring goes and spring comes, flowers go and bloom.
One year has passed in a flash, and the colorful spiritual flowers in the medicine garden are blooming, weaving into a colorful ocean. When the wind blows, there is an intoxicating fragrance of flowers, which makes people feel like they are in a dream.
Beside the sea of flowers, Long Xuan was lying on a rocking chair. On the table next to him were papers filled with Chinese characters and tea. At this moment, he was reading leisurely with a book in his hand, and the breeze was blowing, which made him feel very comfortable.
His originally thin figure has become much rounder this year, probably because he ate too many spiritual eggs.
The big white chicken also got fat and strong. It was currently patrolling the medicine garden, looking for spiritual worms born on the elixir. As long as its head showed up, it would be eaten by the sharp-eyed chicken.
Long Xuan gave it a famous name. Influenced by the fact that he always liked to call the chickens in the game Brother Chicken when playing games in his previous life, he simply named it Brother Chicken out of nostalgia for his previous life, even though this Brother Chicken is a female. of.
Having Brother Ji here saves Long Xuan a lot of work. He doesn't have to get rid of pests, and he also saves money on pesticides.
This place is a complete buffet for him. He has enough nutrition every day and eats until he is full. He can lay at least one egg a day, and of course all of it goes into Long Xuan's belly.
What he was holding in his hand now was a book with three words of "Eternal Life Sutra" written on the cover of the health-preserving exercises.
Health-preserving exercises are a common practice in this world. All mortals can easily learn them, and almost everyone has a copy.
This is also spread out deliberately by the Gu Xiu family. The purpose is to let mortals live for a few more decades so that they can do more work and grow more food for them.
The "Sutra of Immortality" is divided into ten levels. Practicing each level can increase your life span by ten years.
The original master's cultivation qualifications were not very good, and his cultivation speed was very slow. He only practiced the "Sutra of Immortality" poorly, and he was a rare talent that could only be seen in a century.
The realm of Gu cultivation can be divided from low to high into the spirit-gathering stage, the marrow-cleansing stage, the spiritual sea stage, and the out-of-body stage...
Each major realm is subdivided into four smaller realms: early stage, middle stage, late stage, and peak stage. In the out-of-body stage, he is also called the Gu King because he is the strongest in this area.
The original owner is fifteen or sixteen years old and is only in the early stages of gathering spirits, so his qualifications are evident.
This world, like the traditional world of cultivating immortals, pays attention to pure flow. The purer the attributes, the faster the cultivation speed.
Single attribute is a heaven-level qualification, and the cultivation speed is the fastest. Double attributes are earth-level qualifications, and the cultivation speed is second.
The original owner has five attributes: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. His aptitude is not the worst, it can only be said to be average. In addition, casual cultivators have no cultivation resources, so it is understandable that his cultivation speed is so slow.
But every person has strengths and weaknesses. God will close a door for you and open a window for you at the same time.
The original owner is not good at cultivation but has extremely high talent in practicing health-preserving exercises.
Other mortals would struggle to break through the fifth level in their lifetime by practicing the "Sutra of Immortality", but he had already reached the tenth level at a young age, and gained a hundred years of life out of thin air.
Long Xuan also accidentally discovered that the progress displayed on the "Eternal Life Sutra" was not 100%, but a small 10%.
Motivated by curiosity, he tried to continue writing according to the previous rules. Of course, he did not have the ability to continue writing the exercises, but he had an error reminder.
If the progress disappears, it means you got it wrong, then delete it and rewrite it. Otherwise, it means you got it right and you can continue.
He has been in trouble for a year, and he has successfully continued to write to the twentieth level. Starting from the eleventh level, each level increases his life span by a hundred years.
If we continue to deduce it, we don’t know how much life span can be added to each level. It may be a hundred years, it may be two hundred years, or it may be more.
However, the progress of a rare twenty-level skill is only 20%, which is equivalent to a seriously incomplete skill. It's really weird.
He knows very well that the "Sutra of Immortality" really only has ten levels in this world, and there are even no techniques that exceed the tenth level in this area.
Long Xuan was a little worried. He had only deduced 10% of the content, and it took him a year. The content that followed was more complex and profound. It was so profound that he could not continue to deduce it with his current knowledge. It obviously required a lot of effort. more time.
He really couldn't imagine how long it would take to deduce the "Sutra of Immortality" to 100%, whether it would be hundreds of years, thousands of years, or even ten thousand years?
