Spiritual Energy: I Just Want To Farm Peacefully - Chapter 3
Chapter 3: Qi Refinement Stage Level 1
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Spiritual Master Qing Mu was not good at taming beasts, so there was only one way to tame beasts in the memory fragments that Lin Yi had obtained. Moreover, this method was only effective on low-level spirit beasts.
However, it was more than enough to deal with the black-furred wild boar that was not even a spirit beast.
Having made his decision, Lin Yi raised the boar’s legs and pulled hard, forcing it into the warehouse room of the small courtyard. Then, he tied it up with ropes, making sure that it could not break free.
He left her with some water and food before he left.
This beast-taming method required one to be at least at the first level of Qi Refinement. Lin Yi could not use it yet, so he could only lock it up first.
Fortunately, the black-furred boar was too injured. No matter how he manipulated it, it could not resist.
Rearranging the grid, replacing the damaged section.
Soon, the electric net was renewed. Lin Yi locked the courtyard again and took a few stones from the mountains to hold it firmly, ensuring that it could not be opened for a short time.
Only then did he sit beside the Star Origin Grass and start cultivating.
As soon as he entered a cultivation state, he felt the benefits of a high concentration of spiritual energy.
At the same cultivation time, the amount of spiritual energy that entered his body was several times that of before. The excess spiritual energy would not accumulate and would immediately be refined by the Azure Wood Scripture.
Endless green wood spiritual power appeared in Lin Yi’s body and circulated through his meridians, reaching his dantian.
In his originally empty dantian, green gaseous Azure Wood spiritual energy appeared.
Cultivation at the Qi Refinement Stage was the accumulation of spiritual energy. Lin Yi only needed to fill his dantian with green wood spiritual energy to try to break through.
This cultivation lasted for three days.
In the past three days, no medium or large wildlife had appeared outside the courtyard. However, there were many small animals, such as rabbits, pheasants, squirrels, and so on.
Even though they did not know what spiritual energy concentration was, they knew where to stay to feel comfortable.
As for the power grid, after the deaths of a few iron-headed guys, they knew that they couldn’t go to the area behind the power grid. They very sincerely set up their home outside the power grid.
The accumulation during the past three days allowed Lin Yi to finally reach a crucial step.
His dantian was filled with azure wood spiritual energy. The gaseous spiritual power occupied every corner of his dantian, leaving no gap.
“It’s time!”
Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat.
The rate at which the spiritual energy entered his body increased again in a short period of time. Even with the Star Origin Grass, the speed at which the spiritual energy in the air was replenished could not keep up with this consumption rate. In a moment, this area was sucked into a vacuum of spiritual energy.
Fortunately, Lin Yi had already achieved his goal.
Qi Refinement Stage Level 1.
“I’m finally on the path of cultivation.”
Lin Yi felt a little emotional recalling the rush over the past few days and feeling the abundant Azure Wood spiritual energy in his body.
It was too difficult to cultivate on the Blue Planet where spiritual energy was scarce.
Without the help of the Star Origin Grass, it would take at least a few months to achieve this by relying on the spiritual energy in the natural environment.
This did not include the large amount of spiritual energy needed for the final breakthrough.
The Star Origin Grass was the main reason for his breakthrough.
Putting everything else aside, Lin Yi could not wait to check his body.
Apart from the green spiritual energy in his dantian, the tumor cells all over his body had also disappeared without a trace. The malignant tumor that all the tertiary Grade A hospitals had previously judged to be a terminal illness had completely disappeared from Lin Yi’s body.
“Cultivation is indeed magical!”
Lin Yi’s eyes lit up.
His previous cultivation had indeed reduced the effect of the tumor cells to a certain extent. He did not expect that after stepping into the Qi Refinement Stage, the tumor cells would be completely cleaned up by spiritual energy.
Feeling his energetic body and the memories that filled his mind, Lin Yi was filled with anticipation for the future.
Lin Yi was happy for a while. He even took out the precious baijiu in the warehouse and drank two glasses.
However, he quickly used his spiritual power to force out the alcohol in his body and sat beside the Star Origin Grass.
Now was not the time to slack off. There was much for him to do.
For example, cultivating spells.
No matter how much spiritual energy there was, spells that could not be used were useless.
Lin Yi found two Qi Refinement realm spells from Spiritual Master Qing Mu’s memory fragments.
Thorn Technique, Object Manipulation.
The former could control wood-type spiritual power to turn into thorns. It could trap the enemy and also had a certain killing effect. The latter was a spell that all cultivators needed to master.
Whether it was controlling swords or other items, they all used this spell. Moreover, the more spiritual energy they gave, the stronger the power. It was a spell that would never be eliminated.
With Spiritual Master Qing Mu’s cultivation memories, Lin Yi mastered these spells very quickly.
All the key points and attention were in his mind. Other than being a little rusty at the beginning, Lin Yi had cultivated these two spells to the point of perfection after practicing them twice.
A ping-pong ball was dancing around Lin Yi’s body. It was getting faster and faster. Soon, it blurred into a yellow trajectory.
With a thought from Lin Yi, the ping pong ball instantly flew forward towards the huge rock blocking the courtyard door.
Bang!
There was a dull thud.
The fragile Ping-Pong ball shattered into pieces, but the stone it had struck also cracked. It was not far from shattering.
“This power.” Lin Yi thought with a sigh.
The smaller the mass, the easier it would be for him to control it, and the faster it would speed up.
If a table tennis ball could be so powerful, what about a brick, steel ball, or even a needle?!
If he had this ability before, Lin Yi wouldn’t have had to place all his hopes on the electric net to resist the wild boar. He could have just casually hit the wild boar and made its skull crack.
No matter how hard the head was, there was no way the stone was hard.
Next was the Thorn Technique. Lin Yi was very satisfied with the effects of the experiment.
However, Lin Yi still realized his shortcomings. He had too little spiritual energy.
He was currently only at the first level of the Qi Refinement realm. Even though he was very familiar with both spells, his spiritual energy would be exhausted after using them a few times.
There was no good solution to this situation. He could only continue to improve his realm.
The problem of spells was solved. After that, it was a problem of security.
The Star Origin Grass was the core of his current cultivation. Once the Star Origin Grass was damaged or stolen, everything would stop.
However, it was impossible for Lin Yi to guard the Star Origin Grass 24 hours a day. At this time, a guard with a certain level of strength was crucial.
Lin Yi left the courtyard and opened a door. A tightly bound black-furred boar appeared in front of him.
It kept grunting. Even though it had looked half dead before, it had perked up again in such a short time.
And on closer inspection, the burns on its body had clearly improved from before.
“Eh? This!”
Lin Yi realized this.
This wild boar’s body could actually spontaneously absorb the spiritual energy in the air to treat its injuries. It had the potential to become a spirit beast.
Initially, Lin Yi only planned to subdue the wild boar temporarily and kill it for meat in the future. When he saw this, he immediately thought of nurturing it.
If this black-furred wild boar could really advance to a spirit beast, he would not have to worry about the safety of his family for a long time.
The black-furred boar, which was humming stubbornly on the ground, seemed to have sensed something, and its body subconsciously shivered.
Sure enough, in the next second, Lin Yi crouched down and stroked its pig head. He said kindly:
“Good girl. It’ll be over soon.”
The boar shivered harder.
Lin Yi made various gestures in the air and chanted. The Azure Wood spiritual energy in his body appeared on his fingertips and transformed into an inexplicable pattern.
The pattern slowly became clearer as Lin Yi moved it until it was completely revealed.
“Go!”
With a command, the green pattern instantly flew down. To the black-furred boar’s horror, it disappeared into its brain.
The black-furred boar screamed miserably, but soon it stopped and looked up. Its eyes, which had been terrified a few seconds ago, became very kind in a short time.
Looking at Lin Yi, it suddenly felt a sense of closeness, as if Lin Yi was its biological father.
“It’s done.”
Lin Yi knew he had succeeded when he saw the black-furred boar’s reaction.
He slowly untied the rope that bound the boar. As expected, the ferocious boar showed no sign of attacking him. Instead, it leaned its head against his leg and rubbed it affectionately.
“This Spiritual Rhinoceros Spell is really useful.” Lin Yi touched the pig head and injected some azure wood spiritual energy into its body.
The Spiritual Rhinoceros Spell was a spell used to tame low-level spirit beasts. The success rate was not high, but using it to tame wild beasts that were not even spirit beasts was a hundred times better.
But not many cultivators would do that.
With the nourishment of the Azure Wood spiritual energy, the burns on the black-furred boar’s head and body healed at a visible speed.
After a while, a healthy wild boar appeared in front of Lin Yi.
The black-furred boar looked at its body and danced happily, bouncing around Lin Yi.
Azure Wood spiritual energy belonged to the wood attribute. Apart from growing plants, it naturally had the healing effect of wood spiritual power.
Lin Yi had given it a lot of Azure Wood spiritual energy. After the black-furred boar absorbed it all, not only did its injuries heal, but even its body became much stronger. Clearly, it benefited a lot.
It also knew why it had changed so much. It rubbed against Lin Yi affectionately and even let out a gentle moan.
“I’ll call you Little Black from now on.” Lin Yi named it and led it to the small courtyard. He pointed at the Star Origin Grass and said seriously, “You will guard it for me. Don’t let anything alive approach it unless I order you to otherwise.”
Little Black seemed to understand what Lin Yi meant. It grinned and nodded fiercely.
Lin Yi barely made a nest for it with the iron box and left enough food. He closed the door and headed down the mountain.
After obtaining the strengthening of his spiritual power, he could continuously absorb spiritual energy to increase his physical fitness. With Little Black watching over the house, he could completely rest assured.
It had been a while since he had bought supplies. He needed to go down the mountain to buy something.
