Chapter 363: The Amazing Fruit Tree
After a while, Qian Yiming stood up. He took out a small tree and said, "Brother Ye, this is a fourth-level middle-grade Jinghong fruit tree, which has borne fruit once. It was originally intended to be kept as a family heritage, but it is rare to see the Wushen fruit today. I wonder if I can exchange it for one?"
Ye Changsheng carefully looked at the Jinghong fruit tree and nodded secretly in his heart.
Although the Jinghong fruit is only a fourth-level middle-grade one, its effect of nourishing mental power is indeed good, and it is very beneficial for practicing runes and formations. After thinking for a moment, he agreed to the exchange.
After a while, Su Fangyuan also stood up.
He took out a spiritual grass that was green and emitting a faint halo, and said, "Brother Ye, this is a fourth-level top-grade Jingshen grass, which can enhance the power of the soul. I wonder if you are interested?"
Ye Changsheng was overjoyed when he heard this. The preciousness of Jingshen grass is no less than that of Wushen fruit, and the two can be said to be on par.
He agreed to the exchange without hesitation, and at the same time looked at Su Fangyuan with a new look.
It seems that this noble young man is not just a name, he is really capable.
In this way, everyone came and went, exchanging many precious treasures.
Before they knew it, it was already late.
Li Changfeng saw this and said with a smile: "Thank you all for your support today. It's getting late. How about we get together again another day?"
Everyone got up and said goodbye, each returning with a full load.
Ye Changsheng and Su Fangyuan were on the same road. They walked and talked, and they had become good friends before they knew it.
Back home, Ye Changsheng sorted out the treasures he got today one by one, and his heart was full of joy.
In a blink of an eye, half a month passed quietly.
It was time for Chu Yuji's three-month sermon again.
Ye Changsheng came to Chu Yuji's dojo early, full of expectations.
Many disciples had gathered in the dojo. They talked in groups of three or two, waiting for the sermon to begin.
Ye Changsheng found a quiet corner to sit down and close his eyes to rest.
Soon, Chu Yuji walked slowly onto the podium, and the whole audience suddenly quieted down.
It was still the familiar order. Chu Yuji first preached, and explained some cultivation tips in a simple and easy-to-understand way.
Ye Changsheng listened carefully and understood from time to time.
Then he explained the Taoist scriptures. Chu Yuji selected an ancient cultivation method and explained it in detail for everyone.
Finally, there was a question-and-answer session. The disciples raised their doubts one after another, and Chu Yuji answered them one by one.
After the sermon, everyone dispersed one after another.
Ye Changsheng walked towards the back hall unconsciously, with a vague expectation in his heart.
Sure enough, Chu Yuji noticed him, smiled and waved him over.
"Changsheng, has your cultivation been going well recently?"
Chu Yuji asked kindly.
Ye Changsheng bowed respectfully and replied, "Master, I feel that my realm is not stable recently, and learning magic is much more difficult than usual."
Chu Yuji nodded and said, "I guess so. Have you taken a lot of natural treasures recently?"
Ye Changsheng was stunned, and then answered truthfully, "Indeed, I got some precious spiritual medicines some time ago, and I wanted to use them to improve my cultivation."
Chu Yuji sighed and explained, "This is the problem. Your realm is improving too fast and your foundation is unstable. This is not a good thing. If you don't adjust it in time, it will become more and more difficult to advance in the future."
Ye Changsheng was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Master, is there a way to save you?"
"There is a way."
Chu Yuji comforted, "After I answer your questions later, you can go to your third sister Liu Yuying. She is a fourth-level alchemist and should be able to help."
Afterwards, Ye Changsheng asked Chu Yuji about three difficult problems in cultivation.
Chu Yuji answered patiently, and Ye Changsheng benefited a lot.
After the question and answer session, Ye Changsheng bowed deeply to Chu Yuji and left respectfully.
As soon as he left the back hall, Ye Changsheng ran into his third senior sister Liu Yuying.
She seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time, holding an exquisite jade bottle in her hand.
"Junior brother, this is the Nine Refining Soul Pill for you."
Liu Yuying handed the jade bottle to Ye Changsheng, "There are twelve pills in it, take one pill every month. Come to me when you run out, I can adjust your problem of too fast realm improvement."
Ye Changsheng took the jade bottle with surprise and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, third senior sister! I wonder how many spiritual stones you need?"
Liu Yuying waved her hand and smiled: "Didn't you give me a fourth-level Yunmeng white pear before? That spiritual medicine is more than enough to exchange for these pills, I don't want spiritual stones."
Ye Changsheng wanted to say something else, but Liu Yuying had already turned and left.
He had to thank him again and watched his senior sister's back as she walked away.
On the way home, Ye Changsheng was filled with emotion.
He was glad that he could worship such a brilliant master, not only with Chu Yuji, who was knowledgeable, but also with the care of his senior brothers and sisters.
This sense of reliance made him feel warm.
After returning home, Ye Changsheng carefully put away the Nine Refined Soul Pill, and then began to organize what he had learned today.
Ye Changsheng sat in meditation, feeling the gradually stable flow of spiritual power in his body, and his heart was full of expectations for the future.
The next day, Ye Changsheng continued to practice the spell of blooming flowers and wealth.
He sat cross-legged in the middle of the room, forming seals with his hands, and circulated the spiritual power in his body.
As the spiritual power flowed, illusory flowers bloomed around him, emitting a faint fragrance.
At first, these flowers could only last for a moment before dissipating.
But as Ye Changsheng continued to practice, the duration of the flowers gradually increased, and the colors became more and more vivid.
He spent a lot of time practicing every day, and sometimes even forgot to eat.
In two months, Ye Changsheng experienced countless failures and setbacks.
Sometimes the flowers would suddenly wither, and sometimes they would explode into a ball of petals.
But he never gave up. After each failure, he would carefully analyze the reasons and then continue to try.
Finally, on the morning of the sixtieth day, Ye Changsheng felt an unprecedented power surging through his body.
He waved his hand gently, and suddenly all the flowers bloomed, and the whole room instantly turned into a sea of flowers. Flowers of various colors bloomed, and the fragrance was overflowing, which was beautiful.
Ye Changsheng was ecstatic, knowing that he had finally cultivated the flower blossoming and rich to the great success realm.
Next, Ye Changsheng began to practice the last of the wood magics - dead wood revived in spring.
This spell is extremely difficult, requiring the practitioner to have a strong life force and a deep understanding of nature.
Ye Changsheng first studied a large number of classics on tree growth to understand the life cycle and growth patterns of trees.
Then, he would meditate in the nearby woods every day to feel the vitality of the trees.
The process of cultivation was extremely difficult.
Ye Changsheng needed to transform his spiritual power into pure life force, and then inject it into the dead wood.
At first, he could only make some dead branches sprout a few leaves, and they would soon wither again.
As time went by, Ye Changsheng became more and more proficient in controlling the life force.
He began to try to revive larger dead wood, or even the entire dead tree.
