Chapter 51: Reincarnation

~7 min read 1,372 words

Su Jin came home from school, not bringing the Gathering Spirit Array. She only brought newly bought seeds and spirit fruits.

She was going back to practice the Binding Technique.

After hanging up her schoolbag and carrying the small basket home, Su Jin first went to her mother's room to drag out the mixing tools.

She compounded the Earth-Heart Blueberry Dew. She used ten jin of sweet, refreshing well water, plus one drop of Earth-Heart Primordial Milk and two first-grade Golden Silk Blueberry fruits.

The compounded spirit dew carried a strange fragrance with it, which even drew her big brother Su Jian over.

"Xiao Jin, you just compounded Bing Chen Lu the day before yesterday, and it seems there's still quite a lot of Bing Chen Lu left, right? Why are you compounding spirit dew again?"

"I need to use it, that's why. Big Brother, this kind of spirit dew needs to be placed in a low-temperature cellar and left to sit for three days. Help me carry it to the cellar, will you?" Su Jin acted coquettishly.

"Fine." Su Jian walked over, helped Su Jin seal the mouth of the jar. Then with one lift, he carried it away.

Su Jin: So envious of Big Brother's great strength!

"Xiao Jin, hurry over and activate the mechanism on the cellar entrance."

"Coming, coming." Su Jin quickly ran over to activate the mechanism, then directed her big brother to load the large earthenware jar of Earth-Heart Blueberry Dew into the cellar in her parents' room.

Inside there was also the spirit wine her parents had brewed and stored.

After choosing a cool, empty spot near the cellar entrance, Su Jian set the earthenware jar down properly.

"Su Jin, what kind of spirit drink is this you're compounding?" Su Jian asked while placing the earthenware jar in a suitable empty spot.

"Earth-Heart Blueberry Dew."

"Oh, it's Earth-Heart Blueberry Dew? Huh? It's Earth-Heart Blueberry Dew?" Su Jian suddenly raised his voice: "You can actually compound Earth-Heart Blueberry Dew too?"

Su Jian was greatly shocked.

"Mm-hmm, I can. I have the formula, so I can compound it." Su Jin replied.

"Why do you want to compound Earth-Heart Blueberry Dew?" Su Jian was puzzled.

"Because I discovered that my Body Tempering Cultivation Technique is progressing too slowly. So I specifically took out one drop of the Earth-Heart Primordial Milk that Grandfather sent me, then bought three first-grade Golden Silk Blueberry fruits, and compounded some Earth-Heart Blueberry Dew." Su Jin said.

Su Jian thought to himself: The old man is really impressive, he actually got his hands on Earth-Heart Primordial Milk?

Ever since Su Jin began cultivating, the feeling the old man gave him had grown increasingly unfathomable.

"Alright, it's been put away. After three days, we can unseal it and drink it." Su Jin said to Su Jian, "When the time comes, Big Brother can come help you carry it."

"Okay. Then I'll go back to practice the Binding Technique."

"Go on, go on." Su Jian and Su Jin left the cellar together, and Su Jin went back to her own room to practice the Binding Technique.

"Bind, go."

Su Jin quickly cast out the Binding spell she had long mastered in her heart, having simulated its casting and releasing countless times.

She saw a gourd seed in her hand rapidly change from a seed into a vine about one meter long, then twist and bind the chair in front of Su Jin.

Su Jin ran over and gave it a tug.

The vine was very sturdy, bound very tightly.

Su Jin thought to herself: Mm, the first casting of the Binding Technique, the effect is passable.

"Release." Following that, Su Jin cast out another spell to undo the binding. The vine that had been tightly binding the chair suddenly came loose from its twisted, bound state with a clatter, then dropped stiffly to the ground like a corpse.

It really was already dead.

Su Jin walked over and touched it; the vine's vitality had already completely vanished.

In other words, this vine was thoroughly ruined.

"Practicing the Binding Technique once costs one vine. What a waste." Su Jin picked up the dead vine and threw it into Little Wu Tian.

Better give it to Jin Tong as fertilizer; that way it won't count as a waste.

Otherwise she'd feel the pain in her flesh.

It's all spirit stones! ~

Su Jin then continued practicing another ten or so times. She expended another ten or so vines, and these dead vines were all thrown by her into Little Wu Tian as fertilizer in the end.

After her internal magic power was exhausted, Su Jin, while recovering her magic power, distractedly began pondering the spell for extracting Wood Essence Qi.

She was now used to doing several things at once with one mind. The key was that doing so was efficient!!

It didn't delay anything at all.

The spiritual energy at home was really thin.

So Su Jin planned to sleep after recovering at most about one-third of her magic power.

Anyway, even if she kept cultivating without sleeping all night, she could at most recover all her magic power. But it would cost her sleep, which truly wasn't worth it.

Better to go cultivate at the school tomorrow.

Before going to sleep, she still entered Little Wu Tian.

After entering Little Wu Tian, her eyes went wide.

The dozen or so dead gourd vines she had thrown in earlier had now vanished without a trace.

But in the southwest corner of Little Wu Tian, clusters of tender young gourd vines, palm-high, had already sprouted vigorously.

Su Jin secretly calculated: she had thrown in twelve vines in total, yet twelve fresh young gourd seedlings had grown here—what on earth was going on?

Su Jin hurriedly ran over to touch Jin Tong Mu, then used her divine sense to inquire of it.

Jin Tong Mu quickly told her: "Wu Tian's characteristic is reincarnation. After plants die and enter Wu Tian, or die directly within Wu Tian, they can reincarnate.

Reincarnation: means dead plants regrow new seedlings."

Su Jin received the information and got a fright.

She hadn't expected her own Little Wu Tian to be so miraculous.

Dead plants, as long as they entered Little Wu Tian, could give birth to new seedlings!!

Then according to Jin Tong Mu's description, if Su Jin threw in a thousand gourd vines, she would get another thousand gourd vine seedlings?

Then wouldn't she never have to spend money buying spirit seeds to practice the Binding Technique in the future?

And there's such a good thing?

No, she had to test it.

But what should she use to test it?

Oh, right—she still had the four fake seeds of the Golden Silk Blueberry that she'd dug out when refining the Spirit Dew. Su Jin found the four fake seeds and tossed them into Little Wu Tian.

Then she followed in after them.

And right before her eyes, at the foot of the Jin Tong Mu, four tender little seedlings really had sprouted!

Golden Silk Blueberries!!

Su Jin suddenly let out a delighted cry.

Who said she needed to buy seeds?

Her own Little Wu Tian had solved the whole seed problem.

Su Jin suddenly ran back out happily, then carried all the remaining gourd seeds into Little Wu Tian.

As a result, the wooden box holding the gourd seeds was still lying on the ground of Little Wu Tian.

But no new gourd vines had been born inside Little Wu Tian.

What was going on? Su Jin was dumbfounded.

Just now she'd tossed in four fake Golden Silk Blueberry seeds and immediately reaped four golden blueberry seedlings.

But this time she'd brought in even more gourd seeds—why hadn't a single new gourd vine sprouted?

Su Jin asked nervously.

Jin Tong Mu replied with his divine sense: The Golden Silk Blueberry seeds were dead. After passing through Wu Tian's cycle of rebirth, four new Golden Silk Blueberries were born. The gourd seeds you brought in are alive. They cannot be cycled!

Su Jin understood at once—the meaning of the cycle is that there must be death and life.

Without death, there can be no cycle.
