Chapter 73, Incense

At the third peak of Wuzhi Mountain, beside the Fire Spirit Spring, Hua Changxi lay on a bed of top-grade Fire Spirit Stone, his brows relaxed, fully absorbed in his cultivation.

At this moment, as long as she absorbs spiritual energy, her cultivation will increase.

After practicing for one day, the realm data can be increased by 120,000.

Watching her cultivation level increase bit by bit, she found the same pleasure as when she was a cultivator in the Qi Training Stage and Qi Sea Stage.

Originally, she had not planned to stay in Wuzhi Mountain for a long time, but she was reluctant to interrupt her cultivation. Thinking that she had Old You and Guo Yu to cover for her in Medicine Valley, she felt at ease to continue staying in Wuzhi Mountain.

Time flies and more than two months have passed.

On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Hua Changxi ended her practice. It was not that she did not want to continue, but she knew that as the New Year was approaching, her family would definitely go to Medicine Valley to see her, so she had to set off and return to Medicine Valley.

[Realm: Jindan Realm 1001 million/1000 million]
After more than two months of practice, his cultivation level finally broke through 1000 million.

Hua Changxi was very happy looking at the dazzling, round and smooth inner elixir hanging above the qi sea, like the bright sun.

"During this period of time, I have been practicing without any lag or stagnation."

Hua Changxi recalled her cultivation journey after advancing to the Jindan stage and found that when her inner elixir disappeared, no matter how she absorbed spiritual energy, her cultivation could not improve.

Only when her consciousness enters the center of the qi sea and can see the inner elixir, can the inner elixir absorb spiritual energy and continue to grow stronger.

During these two months, her consciousness was directly based on her inner elixir, so her cultivation speed was even faster. During this period, her cultivation level increased by as much as she absorbed.

From this we can see that the key to Jindan realm cultivation lies in the inner elixir.

Only by ensuring that the inner elixir is always suspended in the center of the qi sea can the cultivation level continue to grow.

It’s still the original question, why did the inner elixir run away?
Why was the inner elixir firmly placed in the center of the qi sea when he was angered by You Lao Si last time and this time when he came to Five Finger Mountain?

Hua Changxi felt that there must be some trick here that she didn't know about, but unfortunately, no one told her what the trick was.

Suddenly, Hua Changxi saw Shan Ling running towards him, and his eyes lit up immediately: "Fatty, come here, I have a question for you."

When the mountain spirit saw that Hua Changxi was not practicing, he was delighted and ran over to her happily, asking, "Fairy, have you finished your practice? Can you play with me now?"

Hua Changxi's face froze: "Well, there are so many fairies in the mountains to play with you, are you still bored?"

After forming a bond with the Five Finger Mountain, she could sense some of the general conditions in the mountain.

For example, many plants and trees in the mountains have turned into monsters, and even more animals have turned into monster beasts.

She could vaguely feel that if her cultivation level improved, she would actually be able to control the Five Finger Mountain more thoroughly, but now due to her current strength limitations, she could not do many things.

The mountain spirit pouted and said, "Stop talking about those little demons. They are all so stupid and boring."

Hearing this, Hua Changxi wanted to laugh: "Then let me tell you something interesting."

Shan Ling immediately looked over expectantly.

Hua Changxi quickly told him about the inner elixir running away on its own: "Do you know why?"

Shan Ling stared with eyes wide open, his eyes were full of confusion: "Why did the inner elixir run away?"

Hua Changxi choked: "Won't you encounter this kind of problem when you practice?"

Shan Ling shook his head: "No."

Hua Changxi: "Then how did you practice?"

Shan Ling: "Just absorb spiritual energy, eat some spiritual fruits and drink some spiritual liquids, if someone cooks, you can also have some monster meat or something, oh, I can also use the incense to practice."

Hua Changxi became interested: "Incense? The kind of incense in temples?"

Shan Ling had never actually practiced it, but the inheritance mentioned incense, and he seemed to understand it: "I think so."

Hua Changxi: "Then do you want to build a few mountain temples outside Wuzhi Mountain?"

Shan Ling: "Can I repair it?"

Hua Changxi: "Of course, you can repair as many as you want, provided you can manage them."

When Shan Ling heard this, he was eager to try: "Then I will build one first to try. Fairy, don't worry, I won't leave you behind, and I will build one for you as well."

Hua Changxi had a row of black lines on his forehead: "I don't need anyone to support me."

What qualifications does she have to be worshipped?

Just because he got the Five Finger Mountain by chance?

It's not like she has made any great contribution and deserves to be worshipped by others, so she is afraid of being struck by lightning.

The mountain spirit tilted his head and said, "But only with your permission can outsiders enter the Five Fingers Mountain. In the past two months, I have seen many people wandering outside the Five Fingers Mountain."

"Fairy, everything in the universe is about a cycle and balance. You alone cannot use up all the resources in the Five Finger Mountain. What are you going to do with the rest?"

Hua Changxi had suddenly acquired the Five Finger Mountain. To be honest, he hadn't thought about the follow-up yet: "I don't mind if someone from outside comes into the mountain to look for some cultivation resources."

Wuzhi Mountain is very large. Apart from the five most conspicuous peaks, there are actually many small peaks with ravines and thousands of canyons of all sizes.

The cultivation resources there are several orders of magnitude richer than those in the Sancha Medicine Valley.

The mountain spirit was delighted: "That's it. I will build a temple for you, and then let the people outside go to the temple to ask for your permission. With your permission, they can enter the mountain to train."

Hua Changxi: "But, I can't stay in Wuzhi Mountain forever." As he said that, his expression changed and he looked at the mountain spirit with a smile, "Can you help me watch over it?"

Shan Ling thought that he didn't have enough time to play, so how could he have time to help the fairy look after the temple? But it was difficult to refuse directly, so he had to lower his head and play with his hands, and whispered: "I still have to look after my Shan Ling Temple."

"You little clever guy."

Hua Changxi hummed, and suddenly an idea came to him: "There is a welcoming pine tree on the top of the third peak. Judging from the fluctuations of its spiritual energy, it has reached the Qi Sea realm. I will hire it to help me watch over it. What do you think?"

Shan Ling thought about what the Welcoming Pine looked like and said, "It's okay, little pine. It doesn't have any other problems except that it likes to prick people with its needles."

Hua Changxi fell into deep thought. She had to think carefully about the follow-up of Wuzhi Mountain.

Things like what happened with the Shura Clan, which was stealing mineral spirits, must never happen again.

Hua Changxi immediately took the mountain spirit on a cloud to the third peak and found the welcoming pine: "Xiaosong, I am a friend of the mountain spirit, I want to ask you to do me a favor."

"Xiaoyao is willing."

Before Hua Changxi finished speaking, Yingkesong answered in a baby voice.

Hua Changxi didn't expect that the Welcoming Pine was a little female. She was stunned for a moment, then quickly told it that she could not stay in the Five Fingers Mountain for a long time and needed it to help her deal with those who wanted to enter the Five Fingers Mountain.

"Fairy, I am willing to do so."

As he spoke, the Welcoming Pine glowed brighter with green light. Then, a miniature pine tree flew out from the trunk and hovered in front of Hua Changxi.

This action confused Hua Changxi, and he looked at Shan Ling in confusion.

Shan Ling also looked at her. They stared at each other for a while, then Shan Ling slapped his forehead. He almost forgot that the fairy was stupid and didn't understand anything. He had to remind her: "Fairy, you should make a pact with Xiao Song quickly."

Hua Changxi pretended to be calm and said "Oh". She understood the bond, it involved bleeding.

Breaking the fingertips, a drop of blood flew out and sank into the body of the little pine tree. A red glow immediately appeared around the little pine tree. When the red glow disappeared, Hua Changxi felt that she had some kind of connection with the little pine tree.

The little pine tree flew back into the Welcoming Pine, and the Welcoming Pine immediately said happily: "Little Pine greets the master."

Then the whole pine tree stood up, hovered in front of Hua Changxi, and turned in a circle: "Master, Master, what do you think I look like?"

This look is exactly the same as when Shan Ling was asking for a title.

Hua Changxi turned his head with a wooden face and looked at Shan Ling, who looked back at him innocently.

She knew that there was no free lunch in the world.

Fortunately, she thought Yingkesong was innocent just now, and he actually took the initiative to form a contract with her. After all this time, she found out that she was the innocent one, waiting for her here.

She still has a lot to learn along the way. "Master, Master, what do you think I look like?"

"You look like a human to me!"

As soon as Hua Changxi finished speaking, the Welcoming Pine's green rays grew brighter, and its branches began to shrink, slowly condensing into a green ball half a meter high. The green ball twisted for a while, and finally turned into a three or four-year-old girl.

The little girl is wearing green clothes, a green skirt, and green shoes. She has two little buns on her head. She is very cute and adorable.

"Xiao Song has met the master."

Hua Changxi looked at Shan Ling, then at Xiao Song, the real-life boy and girl, and immediately said with a smile: "You two can play together, so you won't be bored in the future."

Shan Ling circled around Xiao Song and nodded with satisfaction, as if recognizing this little follower: "I can take you out to play."

In the next few days, Hua Changxi wandered around the Five Fingers Mountain, buried all the exposed mineral veins, picked some necessary spiritual plants and fruits and put them into the Shennong Ding. After making sure there were no problems, he prepared to report to Shan Ling and Xiao Song, and then planned to return to Sancha Medicine Valley.

However, after searching for a while, Shanling and Xiaosong were nowhere to be found.

At the same time, Shan Ling was taking Xiao Song out of Wuzhi Mountain with great enthusiasm.

"Shan Ling, where are we going?"

"We are going to build a temple, so of course we are going to find someone who can build it."

"Where can I find someone?"

"There are many families around Wuzhi Mountain. There must be craftsmen who can repair houses and make statues. I must make my statues the most beautiful, and so must the fairy's."

"But the master said that she doesn't want to be worshipped."

"Then what should I do? Oh, I can ask them to carve a fire lotus for the fairy. Worshiping the fire lotus is equivalent to worshiping the fairy."

"Is this okay?"

"Sure, sure. You can listen to me."

In Muzhi Village, brother and sister Anze and Anran were just about to go to the fields to do farm work when they saw two adorable fat babies appearing out of nowhere at the entrance of the village.

The two kids came bouncing towards them. The brother and sister immediately remembered the monster in the Five Finger Mountain that everyone had been talking about for the past two months. When they saw the two fat kids coming, they were so scared that they fell to the ground.

"Shan Ling, look, those two are so stupid that they actually fell down. I have never fallen down since I learned to walk."

"It's pretty stupid."

As they were talking, Shan Ling and Xiao Song had already arrived in front of An Ze and An Ran. The two kids looked at the two people with pale faces and trembling bodies with curiosity.

Xiao Song blinked his big watery eyes and poked the trembling An Ran: "What happened to them?"

Shan Ling: "You must be hungry. I heard that when people are hungry, they will tremble all over."

Xiao Song quickly took out a handful of pine nuts from his pocket and said, "I have pine nuts. I'll give them some."

Shan Ling stopped her and said, "Your pine nuts are too hard. Eat cherries instead."

An Ze and An Ran trembled even more violently as they watched a handful of mouth-watering cherries appear out of thin air in Shan Ling's hands.

"Eat quickly, then you won't be hungry anymore."

Seeing that the two refused to eat, the mountain spirit fed them considerately.

The skin of the cherry melted as soon as they entered their mouths. Anze and Anran swore that these were the most delicious cherries they had ever eaten.

However, the next moment, the facial features of both of them were twisted in pain, veins bulged, their bodies curled up, and they let out painful roars.

Shanling and Xiaosong were startled.

"What happened to them?"

"I do not know."

"What should we do now?"

"I do not know."

At this time, someone in the village heard An Ze Anran's painful roar and ran over.

When the mountain spirit saw someone coming, he pulled Xiaosong up and flew back to the Five Finger Mountain on a cloud.

"Anze, Anran, what happened to you?"

"Quick, take them to see a doctor."

"No, they seem to be dying."

Shanling and Xiaosong hid behind the grass and trees, listening to the villagers' chaotic shouts and looking at each other innocently.

“It seems like we did something wrong.”

"What should we do now?"

"Let's go find the fairy."

Shan Ling and Xiao Song returned to the third peak and saw Hua Changxi was really at the Fire Spirit Spring Pond. They immediately rushed over and said, "Fairy, we met two fragile people. If they eat two cherries, they will die."

Hua Changxi looked at Shan Ling's incredible expression, then looked at the spiritual fruit in his hand, and felt a headache: "Mortals cannot eat spiritual fruits. The spiritual energy in the spiritual fruit is too rich and will burst their bodies."

"Come on, take me there and see if we can save the person."

Hua Changxi held a doll in one hand and rode on the cloud quickly towards Thumb Village.

When they arrived at Thumb Village, Hua Changxi didn't want to show up with the two children, so she asked them to hide behind the grass and trees and wait while she walked into the village.

"Anze and Anran, what wonderful children they were. What a misfortune that caused them to die at such a young age. What a pity, what a pity."

The people in Thumb Village were talking about the accident that happened to An Ze Anran.

Without even asking where the victim's home was, Hua Changxi just followed the discussions of the crowd and went to the place with the most people.

"I am a traveling doctor. I can cure the illnesses of those two people."

Hua Changxi walked into Anze and Anran’s house and went straight to the oldest old man.

The chief of Muzhi Village looked at Hua Changxi and saw that she had a clear and honest look. Thinking that the village doctor could not cure An Ze Anran's illness at all, he nodded and let her into An Ze Anran's house.

As soon as Hua Changxi entered the room, he saw two victims lying on the bed with painful expressions.

Seeing that they were just in pain but showed no signs of exploding, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Hua Changxi asked everyone else in the room to leave, and after closing the door, he used his spiritual power to quickly force out the spiritual energy from the two victims' bodies, and then gave them healing pills to repair their bodies.

"Okay, they should be fine."

After explaining something to the villagers, Hua Changxi left Muzhi Village quickly, regardless of the questions from the village chief and villagers, grabbed two children at the entrance of the village, and returned to Wuzhi Mountain.

"From now on, you are not allowed to feed people food casually."

Shan Ling was still a little frightened: "Fairy, are those two people okay?"

"never mind."

Hua Changxi compared the two people's situation with Yang Chuan's situation.

Yang Chuan relied on the three masters to continuously supply him with internal energy and suppress his spiritual power, so that he did not explode and die in a short period of time. The two men had no one to help them and showed no signs of exploding.

Could it be that both of them have spiritual roots?
He has spiritual roots and can contain some spiritual energy, so there are no signs of exploding?
Hua Changxi was very happy to find out that a suspected monk had been found. On the way back, he reminded Shan Ling and Xiao Song again: "Tomorrow is the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. I have to go back. I will come to see you when I am free."

"Xiao Song, remember the rules when entering the mountains."

"Fatty, don't build me a temple. Just build me a house. As long as outsiders enter the house and ask to enter the mountain according to the rules, Xiao Song will give them a pine needle. There is no need to do anything else."

Shan Ling agreed straightforwardly: "Fairy, I understand."
