I rely on farming to transform the world of cultivation

"You call this territory?"

In the middle of the Jueling Swamp, under the scorching sunshine at noon, the hot humidity makes people uncomfortable.

Lin Qingshan fanned the wind with his hands and looked at Fang Chen speechlessly.

"Of course, no one has ever claimed this territory before. I am the first, so naturally this is my territory."

Fang Chen's natural look made Lin Qingshan a little crazy, but he had to admit that the other party did have some tricks.

He actually felt spiritual energy in the Jueling Swamp, which was really unheard of.

Just feeling such a rich spiritual energy, and thinking about the spiritual roots that had been swallowed up, Lin Qingshan's eyes became dim.

With his previous status as a monk, although he could still feel the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, without spiritual roots, the spiritual energy became poison to him.

Once inhaled into the body, it will explode and die.

"I see that you are good at drawing runes, and you also said that you are very knowledgeable in formations. Have you never thought of using spiritual energy in other ways in these years?"

Noticing Lin Qingshan's emotional changes, Fang Chen also remembered what happened to the other party, so he asked curiously.

"Hey, fellow Taoist, do you think that the function of spiritual roots is only to sense and absorb spiritual energy?"

Fang Chen's question made Lin Qingshan stunned for a moment, then he sighed and asked again.

"Isn't it?"

Fang Chen hurriedly asked. Anyway, according to the memory of the original owner, this was the consensus of almost all the monks.

The function of spiritual roots is to sense and absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and no matter what spiritual root it is, the total amount of spiritual energy that can be sensed at the same time is certain.

"I originally thought so. It wasn't until I lost my spiritual root that I discovered that its greater role is to adapt our bodies to the aura of heaven and earth."

Lin Qingshan shook his head and told what he had learned over the years.

In the first few months after his spiritual roots were taken away, his body could still absorb spiritual energy, but every time he did so, he would feel a little uncomfortable.

After a while, it becomes more than just discomfort.

His body began to reject the spiritual energy, causing severe pain when it came into contact with it.

Only later did he realize that this was because his body had lost its spiritual roots and could no longer adapt to the spiritual energy.

But at that time, he was still in the uncomfortable period of being out of spiritual energy, and he had to take the initiative to take spiritual grains to recuperate his body. The difficulty of that period cannot be explained in a few words.

Fortunately, he survived.

But he couldn't tell clearly whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

"Actually, I have always had a question, why can we monks be unable to leave the spiritual energy? What is the principle of the spiritual valley that allows us to adapt to the thin spiritual energy environment?"

Spiritual roots can make people adapt to spiritual energy. This is not a shocking statement, so Fang Chen quickly accepted it.

But what really confused him was the monk's dependence on spiritual energy and why Linggu could get rid of dependence.

"The first question is very simple. The monk's body has been strengthened by spiritual energy. He needs spiritual energy to maintain it while walking, sitting and lying. If the spiritual energy in the mortal world is not enough to maintain the monk's body functions, it will affect his lifespan."

This is not difficult to understand. It is consistent with Zhou Xingyun's statement and consistent with Fang Chen's guess.

"As for spiritual grains, it does not allow monks to get rid of their dependence on spiritual energy. Instead, it slowly reduces the amount of spiritual grains consumed and allows the body to slowly adapt to the absence of spiritual energy. This will cause the monks' physical functions to gradually decline to the same as that of mortals. , because the process is gentle, there will be no side effects except the loss of cultivation. "

Lin Qingshan explained it in much more detail than Zhou Xingyun. The latter just knew how to do it, while he explained the principles, and Fang Chen understood it quickly.

It's like boiling a frog in warm water.

If the monk's body normally requires one hundred spiritual energy, then the amount of ninety-nine will be provided for a few days. After the body adapts, it will be reduced to ninety-eight, and so on.

It is equivalent to letting the monk's body slowly degenerate into the appearance of a mortal.

"I understand, but back to my original question, you still haven't answered me. Have you tried using Reiki in other ways?"

After understanding all this, Fang Chen nodded and repeated his original question.

"Um...I thought you should understand."

Lin Qingshan rolled his eyes, and then continued: "Without spiritual roots, my body can no longer adapt to spiritual energy, so how can I use it?"

"But didn't those three runes you drew outside Bluestone City mobilize the spiritual energy?"

Fang Chen was very surprised. He didn't know there was any necessary connection between the two. He was asking about using spiritual energy, not absorbing spiritual energy.

In his mind, these are two completely different things.

"It's those three runes that mobilize spiritual energy. It has nothing to do with me. Wait, you mean-"

Lin Qingshan wanted to continue explaining, but suddenly reacted.

Yes, absorbing spiritual energy and using spiritual energy are indeed two different things.

With his attainments in formations, runes, and restraints, even if he cannot absorb the spiritual energy, he can still mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

In Qingshi City, he was just unprepared.

If he was really given enough time, he was confident that he could trap Fang Chen in the formation.

"Thanks for the advice, fellow Taoist."

Lin Qingshan bowed to Fang Chen seriously. Although the other party seemed to have done nothing and just woke him up, it would prevent him from wasting time in the future.

"Well, you didn't realize that you can also manipulate spiritual energy through formations and other forms of emotions. You are also a strange person."

Seeing him like this, Fang Chen also understood that this guy had never thought of using extraordinary formations, runes, and forbidden knowledge to solve the problem of his inability to practice.

At least Fang Chen has figured out a way.

Draw formations, restrictions or runes on the surface of the body. Since the body cannot adapt to the aura, I treat these runes as meridians and can still use the aura.

Although this cannot extend lifespan, it can actually gain the power of a Qi Practitioner.

With strength, there is a basis for finding more solutions.

However, Fang Chen did not tell Lin Qingshan about this method. First of all, he could not completely trust this person. Secondly, he also wanted to try to see if he could restore the other party's spiritual roots.

Since the spiritual roots of this world are essentially spiritual plants with spiritual affinity properties.

Can it be replaced by other spiritual plants?

This is a good research topic.

It happened that Lin Qingshan had lost his spiritual roots, so he was very suitable as the first research subject.

"Oh, by the way, I kept chatting with you and almost forgot about the real thing. We have to build the shelter in a few days. From the data you just counted, how many of the refugees are good at carpentry and construction?"

After getting the information he wanted, Fang Chen stopped chatting and got down to business.

"???"

This time, Lin Qingshan’s head was filled with questions, and he immediately responded: “With what you said at the beginning, food and accommodation are included, do we still need to build our own place to live?”

"Otherwise? I said it's a new territory, so naturally I'm broke and have nothing. However, I bought enough beds and daily necessities. Before the residence is built, I will make do with it in the Second Generation Immortal Mansion."

Fang Chen was also confident. With so many people, it was impossible to build houses for them one by one. They could only let them do it themselves.

"Everyone can do it more or less, but I suggest you let them eat well first. Although you know that you are working for the immortal, you can't go hungry."

Lin Qingshan shrugged, not wanting to continue arguing with Fang Chen, but he paid attention to the title of the Second Generation Immortal Mansion in his mind.

"That's exactly what I meant."

Fang Chen waved his hand and released all four hundred and twenty-four refugees.

There are more than 10,000 square meters of land with a radius of 60 meters, which is more than enough for these people to stand on. At this moment, they all looked at a loss.

I don't know who raised the head, but suddenly he fell to his knees and chanted: "Greetings to the Immortal."

Those who didn't kneel down also wanted to do the same, but they felt a resistance. Fang Chen used his magic power to stop them.

"Stand up, don't kneel!"

Fang Chen shouted loudly and released his magic power at the same time, lifting up all those who were kneeling.

"Remember, there is no one who needs you to kneel here. I am not your ruler, but your leader. I will work with you to build our new home here!"

The refugees still looked at him blankly.

Fang Chen ignored their reactions and snapped his fingers, and pots, pans, rice, flour, grain and oil appeared in the open space.

"Old Lin, organize people to cook."

Hearing these words, the refugees finally had light in their eyes.
