Chapter 193 Chicken and Rabbit in the Same Cage

Chapter 193 Chicken and Rabbit in the Same Cage
"City Lord, what's going on?"

Seeing Fang Chen's uncertain expression, Lin Qingshan asked with great concern.

Chu Lingyu is his disciple. Since Chu Lingyu regards this mute girl as his sister, she can be considered as his disciple.

What's more, even if there was no such relationship, he hoped that nothing would happen to these poor children.

"It's not a big problem. She does have a spiritual root and a spiritual jade. You can take her down first and teach her how to practice. By the way, we are not sure what kind of spiritual root she has yet. First teach her the Yin-Yang Five Elements Secret to see which spiritual energy she has a stronger affinity with, and then practice the corresponding attribute of the skills."

Fang Chen came back to his senses and immediately asked Chu Lingyu to take Chu Lingyu away from the top floor first, but he also explained in detail how to help Chu Lingyu enter the immortal path.

"As you command, City Lord."

Chu Lingyu received the order and was quite sensible. She knew that she and her sister could not be present for the upcoming conversation, so she took her away first.

But of course she would not take her sister to practice first. The clothes Chu Lingyu wore were borrowed from another sister of similar age.

I have to find those needlework girls to measure my sister's size and make her a new set of clothes.

Fang Chen and Lin Qingshan, who were on the top floor, naturally could not think of these things. After they left, Fang Chen spoke before Lin Qingshan asked.

"Old Lin, in the world of cultivation, single-attribute spiritual roots are called heavenly spiritual roots. When did this happen? Is there any reason for this?"

Fang Chen rubbed his brows. To be honest, Chu Lingyu's spiritual root information seemed quite strange to him.

The first is the name Tian Linggen.

Since it is a single-attribute spiritual root, it should be called the fire spiritual root or water spiritual root just like the wind spiritual root. However, the information transmitted back by the ability is called the sky spiritual root.

There is also a pseudo-word following it.

What exactly does this mean?
As for the characteristics of the spiritual roots, Fang Chen was not surprised. It was still spiritual energy-affinity, but Chu Lingyu was a female, so the characteristics of her spiritual roots were spiritual energy-affinity (yin).

"When did this happen?"

Lin Qingshan was stunned by Fang Chen's question. He took a moment to react before answering, "I don't know either. I don't know the reason either. It seems to be a commonly accepted name."

"Is that so?"

Fang Chen was not disappointed, as Lin Qingshan's answer was within his expectations.

I just thought that since the other party was once a direct disciple of the Blood Demon Palace, and the Blood Demon Palace was so knowledgeable about spiritual roots, he might know something, so I asked.

"Why does the city lord ask this? Is there something wrong with Lingyu's spiritual roots?"

After answering the equation's question, Lin Qingshan also raised his own questions.

Fang Chen briefly explained the situation.

"Fake Heavenly Spiritual Root?"

After listening to it, Lin Qingshan was also pondering over this word, unable to understand it.

In his impression, although cultivators like to refer to single-attribute five-element spiritual roots as heavenly spiritual roots, when it comes to a specific cultivator with heavenly spiritual roots, they will only say that he has fire spiritual roots or water spiritual roots or something like that.

Heavenly spiritual roots are easy to explain, but the dual-attribute five-element spiritual roots are called earthly spiritual roots. There are more combinations, and when introducing someone, saying that he has earthly spiritual roots is basically the same as not saying anything.

What's more, it has a fake character.

"But this at least shows that these inexplicably gifted boys and girls were most likely created by the Demon Cultivator Alliance, rather than being born naturally."

Seeing that Lin Qingshan was pondering, Fang Chen simply changed the subject and started talking about the conspiracy of the Demon Cultivator Alliance.

"Indeed, the Demon Cultivator Alliance is making more and more moves. I'm afraid that a war between immortals and demons is inevitable. The city lord must also build a foundation as soon as possible, so that the Immortal Dynasty can be more at ease in future battles."

Lin Qingshan nodded and kept Chu Lingyu's matter to himself.

He had already made up his mind that after leaving here, he must confirm the properties of Chu Lingyu's spiritual roots and whether the speed of absorbing spiritual energy was the same as the natural spiritual roots in his impression.

To prevent any bad situation from happening.

"I have just completed my Qi training, and I have also relied on external forces. It will take some time to hone my skills. Moreover, Daoxuan has just improved the Yin-Yang Five Elements Art, and I also need to switch to cultivation. I also have to wait for Old Ye to purchase the foundation-building pills. The foundation-building process will have to wait at least two or three months."

Fang Chen did not refute, but building the foundation was not a trivial matter after all, so he still had to be fully prepared.

Even according to theoretical calculations, he only needs one foundation-building pill to have a 100% chance of successfully building his foundation.

However, reality often does not completely match theory.

If you really take that 100% success rate as your guiding principle and don't work hard to hone your skills, there is still a possibility of failure.

"Seeing that the City Lord is neither arrogant nor impatient, I feel relieved. In this case, I will not disturb the City Lord's cultivation. The City Lord should first stabilize his cultivation and prepare for the foundation building."

Having said that, Lin Qingshan stood up and wanted to leave.

"There's no need to rush. My cultivation has been growing rapidly these days, but my state of mind has not yet caught up. Please accompany me to stroll around the Immortal City."

Fang Chen also stood up and invited Lin Qingshan to take a walk around Yuehua Fairy City together.

"That's fine. I was originally going to check out the construction progress of Xianju. It happens to be on my way, so I'll do it together."

Lin Qingshan did not refuse, and the two of them left the bamboo house together.

It was night time. The one hundred Moon-Flowering Spiritual Pines in the Moon-Flowering Fairy City emitted a soft glow under the moonlight and released spiritual energy to the outside world.

Under the shining light, the residents of Yuehua Fairy City are working hard to build their fairy homes.

In order to make them more motivated, the fairy house built by each resident is the one he or she will live in in the future.

Therefore, even though it took up the evening practice time, no one complained.

After visiting the model Xianju, every resident of Xiancheng very much hopes to live there.

As a result, I moved into this small room of less than ten square meters and no longer had to squeeze on the same bed with others.

Although the residents of Xiancheng have a harmonious relationship and there is nothing wrong with living in the same room, after a long time, everyone still hopes for some privacy.

Especially those residents who are not married and are assigned to one room because there are not enough rooms.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the framework of Xianju will be completed tomorrow, and the next step is to build the houses inside."

Walking beside Fang Chen, Lin Qingshan also introduced them to him.

The so-called framework of Xianju actually refers to Xianju itself. However, after Xianju is completed, there is only a piece of empty space inside. As for how to build it, Xu Qiyun and Lin Qingshan did not make any mandatory regulations and left the decision to the residents themselves.

However, only the building materials provided by Yuehua Fairy City can be used.

These bricks and tiles were all purchased from the mortal world by Yueshen Market. There is a transmission channel between the two places, so it is very convenient to transport them to Yuehua Fairy City.

"Has the night class been cancelled?"

As for the situation in Xianju, Fang Chen just nodded slightly, then looked around, but did not find anyone in class. He had not paid attention to Yuehua Xiancheng for a long time, so he could not help but ask.

"The residents of Yuehua Fairy City have now mastered basic reading and writing. From now on, they will have to learn on their own. However, most of them have already been stereotyped and it is difficult for them to get in touch with more advanced knowledge. As for those children with potential, some will continue to study under my disciples, while others will train under Old Xu."

Lin Qingshan nodded. The literacy work for the residents of Yuehua Fairy City had already been completed, and he also taught them some basic knowledge of the world of cultivation.

If they continue to attend night classes, there will be nothing more to teach, and Xu Qiyun can only lead them in practicing together.

As the jurisdiction of the Immortal Dynasty expands, Xu Qiyun, who is theoretically only the deputy city lord of Yuehua Immortal City, actually has to worry about everyone.

"No, if we let them practice on their own, most of the residents will be lazy. Although the Immortal City has top-quality spiritual food and thousand-year-old spiritual milk and other methods that can speed up the practice, if they don't practice for a while, they will eventually become rusty with their own magic power, which will increase the probability of failure to break through. We still have to maintain the collective practice once a day."

Fang Chen shook his head. If Xu Qiyun was not energetic enough, Li Daoxuan could take over this responsibility, but it must not be cancelled.

If relying solely on top-grade spiritual food and thousand-year spiritual milk could indeed allow the residents of Yuehua Fairy City to reach the Great Perfection of Qi Training in a short period of time, then building a foundation would become a natural barrier in front of them. Fang Chen himself also relied on elixirs and other things to practice, and he knew the harm best. Otherwise, he would not have needed two or three months to hone his own cultivation before trying to build a foundation.

He was able to hone his skills in just two or three months because, although he relied on these external things, he persisted in practicing every day and never slacked off.

If one simply relies on external objects and never practices on one's own, then building a foundation would be extremely difficult. The time needed to hone one's cultivation would be more than two or three months, at least two or three years.

Although this time is still extremely fast compared to that of ordinary Qi training cultivators, the invasion of the Demonic Alliance is imminent and Fang Chen cannot wait that long.

His goal was to ensure that half of the residents of the Immortal Dynasty would successfully establish their foundation when the Demon Cultivator Alliance invaded.

In this way, combined with Lin Qingshan's formation, he is not afraid of any number of enemies.

Finally, he added, "And collective practice also has its advantages. Let Daoxuan be in charge. He will be able to know everyone's practice situation and make improvements to the Yin-Yang Five Elements Formula."

"It was our fault for not considering it carefully. In fact, the cancellation of collective practice was only after the construction of the fairy residence began. Everyone was busy building the fairy residence at night and had no time to practice together, so it was temporarily suspended. Originally, we planned to officially cancel it after the fairy residence was completed. Now it seems that it is better to keep it."

After learning about Fang Chen's attitude towards collective practice, Lin Qingshan also explained it.

They did not suddenly stop their collective practice, but did so to free up manpower to build the immortal residence.

The residents of Yuehua Fairy City have their own division of labor and things to do during the day. They can only build their fairy residences at night, which is the time for collective practice.

Collective practice naturally stopped.

"Well, at this stage, the main focus is still on building the fairy residence to ensure that every resident has a place to live."

Fang Chen nodded, and he quite agreed with this.

After staying here for a while, the two started walking again and headed towards the breeding area.

The current breeding in Yuehua Fairy City is mainly based on chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep. The Iron-boned Spirit Fish is not suitable for the environment here, so it can only be bred in the underground caves of Ghost Island.

So far, only the magical chickens have been born in the chicken coop.

Many attempts have been made before to feed ducks and geese with the corpses of spirit moths, but they always ended up exploding and dying.

In the chicken coop, apart from the attacking king at the beginning and its offspring, no new spirit chickens were born.

It's somewhat regrettable.

However, it was not without gain. At least Huang Yuling, who managed the chicken coop, had completely mastered the trick of raising magical chickens, giving all the residents of Yuehua Fairy City the opportunity to taste the magical chickens.

However, given the current situation, the supply of spiritual eggs is more sufficient.

“There’s no strange smell here.”

Walking in the breeding area, Fang Chen sniffed the air. It was very different from his impression of breeding farms. The air here was quite fresh.

"Of course, there are many arrays here to remove odors. Otherwise, most of the girls in charge of the breeding area are delicate girls. How could they bear the affairs here?"

Lin Qingshan was very proud and said that the lack of odor here was mostly due to his efforts.

Fang Chen nodded slightly. Thanks to the formation he had set up, the physical burden of many Xiancheng residents working in the breeding area was indeed reduced.

The manure produced in this area is also collected, composted, and used in the planting area.

Fang Chen didn't need to remind everyone of this. Many of the first residents of Yuehua Fairy City were old farmers. After knowing that Yuehua Fairy City started raising cattle and sheep, they took the initiative to collect manure as fertilizer.

In fact, it is not that useful.

Firstly, the land in the Jueling Swamp is fertile enough. Secondly, the growth of spiritual plants mainly depends on spiritual energy, and the requirements for soil fertility are not high.

Fang Chen had previously considered building a frame to create a multi-story soilless spiritual plant cultivation tower.

At that time he was still in Lianyunfang City. He did this in order to expand the planting area of ​​the courtyard as much as possible, but he gave up later.

The main reason was that he had no plan to stay in Lianyunfang City for too long, and getting such a thing would not be worth it.

Continuing to walk forward, white figures began to appear in front of Fang Chen's eyes.

Taking a closer look in the light of the moonlit pine trees, I saw that they were actually white rabbits running carefree in the grassland.

If you look closely, you can see them absorbing spiritual energy.

These are actually smart rabbits.

"Where did these rabbits come from?"

Seeing these rabbits eating grass carefreely, Fang Chen turned around and asked Lin Qingshan who was standing beside him.

"City Lord, do you still remember that you promised Senior Long Jia that you would exchange a batch of moonlight spiritual plants with the Wang family?"

Lin Qingshan did not answer directly, but instead mentioned the Wang family.

"So these rabbits were exchanged from the Wang family?"

Of course Fang Chen remembered this incident, and instantly understood the origin of the spirit rabbit.

"That's right. When the city lord was absorbing the thousand-year-old spiritual milk on Ghost Domain Island, Senior Longjia came over and hoped to complete the deal. Old Xu heard from Old Ye that the Wang family raised a spiritual beast called the Soft Bone Spirit Rabbit, so he specifically asked for a few pairs of live rabbits in exchange for the Moonlight Spirit Plant."

Lin Qingshan also explained the detailed cause and effect.

"I see."

Fang Chen couldn't help but be amazed. You know, when he was absorbing the thousand-year spiritual milk on the Ghost Island, less than a day had passed since the auction, and Dragon Armor had actually returned from the Star-Moon Sea.

Is this the speed of a Jindan cultivator?
"By the way, I was not there at the time. What did you exchange with Senior Long Jia?"

After exclaiming in amazement, Fang Chen asked another question.

"Isn't this easy? Just cut off a few branches of the Moonlight Pine and have him go back and plant them."

Lin Qingshan shrugged. In this case, it would take at least three to five years for the Yuehua Spirit Pine to grow into a tree as spectacular as the one in Yuehua Fairy City.

Before that, the effect of converting moonlight to release spiritual energy will be much worse than here in Yuehua Fairy City.

"can."

Fang Chen gave Lin Qingshan a thumbs up, saying that he did a good job. Then, looking at these spirit rabbits, he thought of the spirit chickens in the chicken coop.

"With these spiritual rabbits, Liu Sandao and his team might be able to research a new top-grade spiritual food."

After saying that, the two left the breeding area and walked to the planting area to take a look at the current status of the various spiritual plants in Yuehua Fairy City.

There was a lot of prosperity.

After walking around and returning to the bamboo building, Fang Chen said to Lin Qingshan, "I have been a hands-off manager. Thank you and Old Xu for your hard work."

"No way! If it weren't for the city lord, we would have starved to death outside Qingshi City."

Lin Qingshan waved his hands, but this time he was not proud.

The two continued to talk for a while, and Fang Chen returned to the top floor and began to hone his cultivation.

After strolling around Yuehua Fairy City, he was in a very good mood, and his state of mind had unconsciously become more fulfilled.

This is a good opportunity to strike while the iron is hot.

Along with the spiritual light of the Moon Goddess Flower, Fang Chen once again entered the state of cultivation.

 Today is the first update, 4000 words, and there will be two more updates. I hope you will support me.
