Chapter 24 Initial Stability
In the Soul-Destroying Swamp, the spiritual energy transformed from the Moonlight Grass could not be released at all, but was instead suppressed within the body.

Moonlight grass can convert moonlight into spiritual energy because of its special structure, but it is just an ordinary grass. Once it absorbs spiritual energy, it will feel extremely uncomfortable, just like a mortal eating spiritual fruit, until it withers and dies.

However, after a mortal eats the spiritual fruit, if there is a cultivator to guide him, he can smoothly embark on the path of cultivation and become a cultivator at the first level of Qi training.

Moonlight grass that absorbs less spiritual energy will not die immediately, but will slowly wither. If it gains the spiritual energy affinity characteristic at this time, it can also evolve into moonlight spiritual grass.

However, Fang Chen, who has the ability to directly grant plants their characteristics, has only a one in ten success rate in doing so.

It is a bit of a take-for-granted thing to let the moonlight grass that absorbs spiritual energy acquire the spiritual energy affinity characteristics on its own.

After all, mortals can succeed because everyone has spiritual roots, but most people only have the same five elements pseudo spiritual roots as Fang Chen.

This type of people are generally not qualified to embark on the path of cultivation. Fortunately, the original owner's parents loved him enough and used spiritual fruits to allow him to get started.

But Moonlight Grass does not meet such conditions.

Therefore, the Jindan cultivator's plan of taking it slow and steady also failed.

After that, the development of the Jueling Swamp has become an impossible task among the monks.

But all this does not apply to Fang Chen.

According to the records in the books, Fang Chen was surprised to find that most cultivators did not know that the reason for the formation of the Jueling Swamp was the Jueling Moss everywhere.

After thinking about it carefully, I think it makes sense.

If a single plant possesses the property of being completely spiritual, it is basically useless and will only prevent itself from absorbing spiritual energy.

But in fact, most ordinary plants cannot absorb spiritual energy on their own, so the absolute spirit moss does not appear to be abnormal.

Only when the number reaches a certain scale and forms a soul-killing formation, will the spiritual energy within the range of the formation be banned.

Moreover, wherever plants with absolute spiritual properties are planted, the formation will cover the area.

For example, Fang Chen planted a circle of plants with absolute spirit properties along his yard, and the absolute spirit formation only existed in the circle of the yard.

Its function is to become an isolation zone that isolates the flow of spiritual energy inside and outside.

"Could it be that the scale of the plants with the Absolute Spiritual Property is so large that it has become the scale of the Absolute Spiritual Swamp? Will the range of the Absolute Spiritual Array exceed the range covered by the Absolute Spiritual Moss? Just like it is now."

Fang Chen, who had already arrived at the center of the swamp and used his magic power to clear out an area completely free of the Absolute Spirit Moss, only to find that the Absolute Spirit Array was still working here, had a new guess.

Even he didn't know this, so those monks who only studied a small amount of the Absolute Spirit Moss would not be able to come to any useful conclusions.

However, the strength of Jueling's characteristics was beyond Fang Chen's expectations.

He originally wanted to clear out an area in the center of the Absolute Soul Swamp to develop secretly, and the Absolute Soul moss on the periphery would act as a barrier to isolate the spiritual energy.

But now all this has become impossible.

He had almost cleared two or three acres of land, and the Absolute Soul Array still covered the area he had cleared.

"Something's wrong. Is it because it's not cleaned up?"

Fang Chen stopped doing useless work. He always felt that he had overlooked something. Then he suddenly remembered that the sexual reproduction of moss seemed to be carried out through spores.

He squatted down and put his hands into the dirt under his feet.

Name: Absolute Moss

Features: Absolute Spirit
……

Countless identical pieces of information flooded into his mind at the same time, making him feel dizzy.

Fortunately, his spiritual power was strong enough to process this information at the same time.

"Will the absolute soul property of the spores also activate the absolute soul formation?"

This is a bit troublesome. The spores of the Absolute Moss are spread throughout the swamp and have penetrated deep into the soil. It is not easy to clean them up completely.

"When that Jindan cultivator planted the Moonlight Grass, he must have cleared away a lot of Absolute Spirit Moss, but he failed to notice the spores everywhere in the soil, so the spiritual energy transformed by the Moonlight Grass could not be released."

Combining his own experience, Fang Chen also completed the causes and consequences of the Jindan cultivator's failure.

But he also faced the same problem. The only good news was that what he was going to plant was not ordinary moonlight grass, but Moonlight Spirit Grass.

The high-level Moonlight properties not only allow it to transform the essence of moonlight into spiritual energy, but it can also absorb spiritual energy itself without any problems, and instead helps it grow.

But Fang Chen came to Jueling Swamp not to cultivate Moonlight Spirit Grass.

He had to find a way to clear the spores from the soil.

"It would be great if we had quicklime. If we pour some on a place like this, no plant seeds would survive."

Fang Chen instantly thought of quicklime. That thing was particularly useful in places where large-scale spells could not be used. The high temperature it generated was enough to turn any plants and seeds into ashes.

Unfortunately, after traveling to this world, he had never seen a substance similar to quicklime.

"High temperature, yes, high temperature, why do I always fall into misunderstandings."

Thinking of the mechanism by which quicklime exterminates plants, Fang Chen slapped his forehead and came up with a solution.

He immediately activated his magic power and cast the Red Sun Technique, and then the temperature of his hands began to rise.

The specific principle of Chi Yang Shu to stimulate seed activity is to adjust the temperature so that the seeds can germinate at the appropriate temperature.

Under normal circumstances, he can use his magic power to condense a small red sun outside his body to shine on the seeds.

This is also the origin of the name of Chi Yang Shu.

In the Absolute Soul Swamp, this method obviously doesn't work, as the mana can't be released. Fang Chen also uses mana to strengthen himself by jumping into the water and on the meadow.

The same is true of the Red Sun Technique used this time.

He simply turned his hands into the little sun.

Then quickly put your hands into the soil and stir it continuously.

Fortunately, the physique of cultivators is better than that of ordinary people. They can withstand high temperatures of around 60 degrees for a long time. If it is higher, they will get burned, unless they reach a higher level of cultivation or practice fire-attributed skills with corresponding abilities.

After about an hour, Fang Chen finally could no longer sense any information from the Absolute Spirit Moss.

The dry land under his feet, which had turned from mud, began to be filled with spiritual energy.

These spiritual energies come from the first generation of immortal palace.

Before this area was cleared, the spiritual energy in the Immortal Palace would be repelled out of the swamp by the Absolute Spirit Array as soon as it was released.

Fortunately, Fang Chen carried his Immortal Palace with him, so the spiritual energy could reach him before being expelled, so that he would not be in a completely spiritual environment.

This was also the main factor that enabled him to finally conquer the Jueling Swamp.

Fang Chen himself had not expected that the Beggar's Version of the Immortal Palace, which he had come up with just to bring the Moon Goddess Flower safely out of Lianyunfang City, would actually play such a big role today.

It can only be said that opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared.

Now that he had a place where spiritual energy would not be rejected, Fang Chen no longer had to use his hands as a heat source. He could directly condense four small suns and place them at the four edges of the area to burn them.

The efficiency has obviously increased several times, and the center of the Jueling Swamp is constantly being developed.

Fang Chen stopped only after he had cleared a piece of land with a radius of sixty meters.

It would take him forever to accomplish anything by himself. If we really want to carry out large-scale development, we still need a group of people to work together.

So he just needs a place to stay, to build a preliminary shelter, and then look for a suitable mortal.

"It just so happens that I found a lot of good things in the mortal world this time. Let's transplant some of them first."

Stopping the development of the Jueling Swamp does not mean that he can sit idle. On the way from Lianyunfang City to the Jueling Swamp, Fang Chen was not idle. As long as he encountered plants with special characteristics, he would receive the first generation of immortal palace.

Now they can be transplanted to this wider land.
