Chapter 34: Don't Give Me Bad Ideas
Spiritual sense is a very magical thing.
When a cultivator draws Qi into the body and circulates it to reach the first layer of Qi Condensation, it is automatically generated.
Then, as the cultivator's cultivation base improves, the spiritual sense will gradually strengthen.
No specialized cultivation is needed.
Besides having indispensable roles in alchemy, talisman making, and arrays, spiritual sense also provides huge assistance when facing enemies.
Also, the strength of the spiritual sense determines the strength of one's comprehension.
However, this thing can also be cultivated!
It's just that techniques in the world that can cultivate spiritual sense are extremely rare, so most people don't specifically cultivate spiritual sense when they cultivate.
He Pingsheng accidentally obtained an incomplete spiritual sense cultivation technique this time, and after strengthening, it became two books.
And when opened, the first page of both books had a large 【Heaven】 character.
He Pingsheng combined this with the "Heaven" characters on the previous Li Huo True Method and Changchun Qi Zhou Tian Formula to speculate that this should indicate the tier of the technique.
Of course, whether it is or not is just a guess.
Never mind!
It doesn't affect the subsequent outline and content.
What to do?
"Cultivate..."
There's nothing else to do anyway.
Improving cultivation base is impossible because there are no resources.
So... let's cultivate spiritual sense first.
He Pingsheng took out the 【Profound Sect Meditation True Formula】 again, skipped the outline, and started reading the first chapter, 【Qi Refining Chapter】.
When cultivating this spirit-refining technique, just like improving cultivation base, each realm also has twelve layers.
After half an hour of familiarization, He Pingsheng began to refine his spirit.
He guided a wisp of spiritual sense from his sea of consciousness and swept it through the meridians in his soul.
"Ah..."
The next moment, He Pingsheng screamed in pain.
Refining spirit is different from cultivation.
When cultivating, there is no such intense pain, but when refining spirit, there is.
He Pingsheng gritted his teeth and started over.
"Ah..."
Another scream.
But he was indomitable, failing repeatedly and fighting repeatedly, and finally, after one day, he successfully guided the spiritual sense in his sea of consciousness to circulate through his entire soul.
First layer of spiritual sense, achieved!
Night fell, He Pingsheng ate a little, and then closed the stone door.
Too exhausted!
When cultivating "drawing Qi into the body," it eliminates all fatigue, but refining spirit is different. After refining spirit, the whole person feels muddled, as if the soul has been drained, and one wants to sleep.
But before sleeping, there was one more thing to do.
He Pingsheng threw the 【Paper Crane】 he bought from the stall into the Ju Bao Pen, pushed the Ju Bao Pen under the bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
Waking up the next morning, He Pingsheng felt refreshed.
Boom...
The next moment, his spiritual sense extended out.
The distance of his spiritual sense had improved.
Let's put it this way: before, his spiritual sense could cover about ten zhang around him.
And now, this distance had reached about fifteen zhang.
Increasing the distance wasn't the key; the key was that He Pingsheng felt the quality of his spiritual sense was better, sharper, and more agile.
Great!
Didn't expect that cultivating spiritual sense for one day could achieve such an effect.
Right...
He Pingsheng hurriedly lay down and pulled the Ju Bao Pen from under the bed with a clatter.
Looking into the basin: Whoa, two!
That's right!
Previously, the paper crane he threw into the Ju Bao Pen had now become two.
He Pingsheng excitedly held the two paper cranes in his hands.
Before, each of these paper cranes only had one chance left to be activated.
Great, now they could be activated twice.
He Pingsheng's spiritual sense gently swept over the paper cranes.
And then...
"This..."
He Pingsheng was shocked and jumped off the bed with a slap.
Twelve times!
That's right!
Each paper crane now had twelve chances to be activated, totaling twenty-four times.
Moreover, the duration of each activation remained the same, one day, but the flight speed of these paper cranes was twice the original.
That is to say, it previously took two hours to fly from Spirit Herb Valley to the 【Mount Matou Market】, but now, using this kind of paper crane, it only took one hour.
"So, these paper cranes also have levels!" He Pingsheng narrowed his eyes.
"Then... should I consider selling one?"
"It should sell for quite a bit of money, right?"
What He Pingsheng lacked now were cultivation resources.
Cultivation, cultivation; Dharma, companions, wealth, and land; without wealth, cultivate my foot.
"Store..."
He Pingsheng put the two paper cranes away, ignored them, and focused on cultivating his spiritual sense.
In a flash, another month passed.
The autumn wind was bleak, and the leaves in the valley were yellow!
When He Pingsheng's spiritual sense had cultivated to the second layer of the Qi Refining Chapter, Daoist Ku Mu returned to the Spirit Herb Valley.
His face was pale, and the wrinkles on his face seemed deeper.
"Cough, cough, cough..." Seeing He Pingsheng, he coughed a few times and said: "Little He... have the things I entrusted to you been handled?"
"Senior!" He Pingsheng said: "Handled... in the last month, I collected ten and a half bottles of pollen in total, and finally, under the guidance of Senior Brother Wang Dun, I went to the Mount Matou market and handed the items to Shopkeeper Liu in Fenghe Manor!"
"This is the receipt Shopkeeper Liu gave!"
He Pingsheng gave the paper to Ku Mu.
"Not bad!" Ku Mu looked at the receipt and nodded, saying: "You did well!"
"He Pingsheng, you are a good child, what a pity!" Ku Mu said while putting away the receipt: "It's a pity that you mainly cultivate the Fire Linggen, so you cannot stay in the Spirit Herb Valley for long!"
"How about this: when I plant the Blazing Sun Flowers next year, I will look for you to help again!"
"You can go now!"
Ah?
Go!
Was I just kicked out?
He Pingsheng was a bit dazed.
Because the few months in the Spirit Herb Valley had been quite good.
"Why?" Ku Mu said: "Do you have anything else?"
He Pingsheng cupped his hands and said: "Junior worked in the alchemy room of Xiuzhu Peak before and knows that much of their wood ash is poured into a valley. If Senior is willing, I can collect all that wood ash to use as fertilizer for the various spiritual plants in the Spirit Herb Valley!"
"This wood ash can fertilize fields!"
"Humph..." Ku Mu snorted coldly and said: "He Pingsheng... don't give me any bad ideas!"
"Wood ash to nourish spiritual plants?"
"Is your brain broken to think of such a method?"
"Or is it that you want to go there to find something yourself?"
Ku Mu's gaze swept over He Pingsheng like a knife.
He Pingsheng's heart tightened: This...
That's right!
He did indeed have selfish motives.
Thinking of going there to find some waste pills, so that he would have enough resources for future cultivation.
But which cultivator in this Profound Heaven Sect is a fool?
The higher the cultivation base, the higher the intelligence.
Often, one can capture core information in a single thought.
He Pingsheng didn't dare to look him in the eye, just cupped his hands and said: "Junior was abrupt..."
"Go!" Ku Mu waved his hand.
He Pingsheng hurriedly retreated.
After watching He Pingsheng leave, Daoist Ku Mu's eyes suddenly narrowed, and then he instantly flew on his sword to the place where Xiuzhu Peak poured the wood ash.
"This kid would definitely not say he wanted to come here for no reason. Could it be... there really is some clue here?"
Daoist Ku Mu's spiritual sense roared out and searched the surroundings.
The furnace ash at the foot of the mountain was dug open by him bit by bit.
There was nothing inside.
Except for ash, it was still ash, and some waste pills.
"It seems I was overthinking!" Daoist Ku Mu shook his head: "Just an outer sect disciple, even if he has some small thoughts, I'm afraid it won't be any great opportunity!"
"Forget it, forget it!"
"Wasting my time!"
Daoist Ku Mu shook his head and left Xiuzhu Peak. ===== CHAPTER 35 =====
