Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

The Five Elements Art fused from high-rank cultivation methods was already heaven-defying.

Now he only needed one more earth-attribute ground-rank cultivation method to fuse a higher-grade Five Elements Art; Xu Zhangqing grew excited just thinking about it.

Metal: Golden Seal Controls Heaven Technique

Wood: Water Wood Circulation Classic

Water: Nine Curves Tidal Life Technique

Fire: Nine Flames Mysterious Technique (doesn't count)

Earth: Thick Earth Inherits Heaven Technique

Five Elements: Five Elements Art

Without exception, all were ground-rank cultivation methods, and top-tier ones at that.

Xu Zhangqing carefully examined his Attribute Panel, his gaze shifting back and forth among Wood Spirit Entangling Art, Wood Hiding Technique, and Wood Armor Art, thoughtful.

Nowadays, as his own realm and strength rose, the value of these few arts was actually not high anymore.

Rather than keep them occupying slots, he might as well try fusing them first.

Perhaps a higher-grade art combining the characteristics of all three arts could be born.

Thinking this, Xu Zhangqing hesitated not at all, decisively activating Nine Flames Mysterious Technique.

The moment Black Flame activated, the system reacted swiftly.

……Please select arts to fuse……

Wood Spirit Entangling Art

Wood Hiding Technique

Wood Armor Art

Instantly, the memories of the three arts blurred bit by bit, leaving only experience and techniques.

Next, a brand-new art was born.

Myriad Spirit Wood Armor: Full Level

Effect 1: Attract plants within a hundred li to gather into wood armor

Effect 1: Wood armor can block 50% of attacks from Golden Core Late Stage

Effect 2: Wood armor metal, fire resistance +50%

Effect 3: Wood armor other resistances +30%

Effect 4: The denser the wood spirit energy, the faster the wood armor recovers, up to +60%

Effect 5: Wood armor released can transform into a hundred-zhang vine net

Effect 6: Within the vine net, plants are granted damage such as deadly poison, paralysis, piercing, and entangling

Effect 7: Within the vine net, one's own aura drops to the lowest, able to evade Nascent Soul Stage divine sense probing

Special Effect 1: Centered on oneself, deploy a hundred-zhang wood spirit domain; all plants within belong to oneself

Special Effect 2: After the spirit armor suffers a fatal attack, surrounding plants can be used to reorganize; the new wood armor is 50% strength, limited to once per day

Special Effect 3: Within areas covered by plants, one can transfer through nearby plants, the process completely hidden, with no spiritual power fluctuations

Xu Zhangqing nodded slightly: "It retains the characteristics of the three arts and adds some new things; overall it can attack and defend, and allows short-distance transfer."

He was still quite satisfied with the art fused this time.

All three arts were like this; what if there were more?

For example, five types!

It seemed he had still underestimated the ability of Nine Flames Mysterious Technique.

Moreover, Xu Zhangqing had an advantage no one else had: he could constantly learn cultivation methods and arts, then use Black Flame's fusion ability to forcibly create stronger cultivation methods and arts.

He had time.

He had lifespan.

He had patience.

The only pity was that cultivation methods and arts had to be sought out.

And most outside were fragmented editions, some even only a single page.

Throughout the entire Tianyuan Realm, especially among cultivators, complete cultivation methods and arts were almost all controlled by immortal sects, clans, and powers.

Anything that could be found outside almost all had various problems.

Xu Zhangqing stretched lazily, then chuckled: "Doesn't matter; anyway, I'm not in a hurry."

……

……

Two days later, Chu Qiu, Pei Mo, and Ruo Qunshuang left the Immortal Sect together.

Actually, Ruo Qunshuang wanted to invite Xu Zhangqing to go along, but he had just returned from outside and didn't want to go out again, so he refused.

Moreover, there were two seasons when there were more matters in the Spirit Fields.

One was spring: many newly promoted Disciples planting spirit rice in Second Grade Spirit Fields for the first time were prone to mistakes and accidents.

One was autumn: many spirit farmers would plant more in this season, then directly abandon it in winter, preferring to wait until spring next year.

This led to frequent occurrences of insufficient earth qi in the Spirit Fields and spirit plants lacking water, each time requiring help from the Core Management Office.

After all, those who dare to plant in winter are ultimately a minority.

What's more, a disaster had occurred before, making everyone extra cautious in winter, afraid of trouble happening again.

After finishing up outside, Xu Zhangqing went to the Core Management Office and found Hua Lao.

It wasn't anything else, but rather his cultivation realm needed improvement.

Nearly five years had passed; if he were still stuck at the middle stage, it would be somewhat inexcusable.

Hua Lao asked with a smile: "Adding this one mu, you now have seven mu, right?"

Xu Zhangqing nodded: "Indeed."

Hua Lao continued: "Hongfeng Valley isn't like other places; even exceeding ten mu is no problem."

Many places at the Spirit Field Core have experienced disaster incidents.

This causes some districts' spirit fields to be unable to exceed five mu, otherwise problems will occur.

For example, where Xu Zhangqing previously lived, because it exceeded five mu, all sorts of mishaps occurred.

Originally safe and sound, he eventually had to move.

But Hongfeng Valley is different; not only is its location special, crucially the Red Maple Ancient Tree guards it.

Therefore, as long as it's not a particularly severe disaster incident, it can basically be ignored.

Hearing this, Xu Zhangqing smiled without speaking.

The spirit fields outside, no matter how many increased, he no longer cared.

With the passage of time and the improvement of his own realm, the area of his personal space kept expanding, its range growing larger and larger.

Now the number of second-grade spirit fields had already reached thirty-two mu.

And, as long as spiritual energy allowed, they could keep increasing.

Now still planting spirit rice, medicinal herbs, melons, fruits, and vegetables outside was purely for show.

In fact, he had previously learned from Eldest Senior Sister Bei Qingtang that as a Core Disciple, once moving to Xianfeng, the second-grade spirit field could be upgraded to third grade.

Anyone else, or a normal person, would surely know how to choose.

Xu Zhangqing was different; not that he was abnormal, but the situation was special.

First, he was the Spirit Field Spirit Cultivator; with this identity and position, he could not possibly leave the Spirit Field Core for long.

Second, once entering Xianfeng, it was equivalent to being constantly under Grandmaster Mu's divine sense, doing anything was inconvenient, always bound hand and foot.

This was why Xu Zhangqing preferred to plant second-grade spirit fields and continue staying below.

Hua Lao suddenly asked: "When you reach the Golden Core Stage, will you still stay here?"

Xu Zhangqing was stunned, and asked back in confusion: "What do you mean by this?"

Hua Lao explained: "Most cultivators in the Immortal Sect, once reaching the Golden Core Stage, will go to places with more abundant spiritual energy to cultivate; this is an inevitable result.

After all, not everyone is as unrestrained and free-spirited as the Grain Master."

Xu Zhangqing frowned: "You mean, if one day I break through to the Golden Core Stage, I can't stay?"

Hua Lao shook his head: "Not that you can't, but if you want to improve your cultivation realm faster, then you must leave; the spiritual energy here is insufficient to support cultivation."

Unless...

Xu Zhangqing curiously pressed: "Unless what?"

Hua Lao said seriously: "Unless you become the Grain Master!"
