Chapter 12 – Spiritual Rain Technique
Chapter 12: Spiritual Rain Technique
Because of the two newly acquired arts, Xu Chuniang adjusted her cultivation time the next day. Originally, she slept two hours a day, and the other ten hours were used for cultivation.
Now that she had to learn the spells, she divided two hours from her ten hours of cultivation to study.
Her water spirit root had a higher purity, so she started with the Spiritual Rain Technique first.
Xu Chuniang’s fingers moved slightly, and she saw a jade slip appear in her hand. She opened the jade slip and followed the guidelines inside and began to cultivate the art.
As a technique that could be practiced at the first level of qi cultivation, the Spiritual Rain Technique wasn’t too difficult to begin, and only required calling upon the spiritual qi in her dantian to turn it into spiritual rain.
After skillfully memorizing the Spiritual Rain Technique, Xu Chuniang felt that she had some certainty and was ready to give it a try.
“Spiritual qi into rain!”
Xu Chuniang pointed her finger in front of her and shouted softly, but she didn’t see half a bit of rain spilling down.
“It doesn’t seem right, I’m moving too slowly, and the aura is directly dissipating from the air. Speed up a bit, do it again …… Reiki Turns to Rain!”
This time, it was finally a bit better than last time, and the sky sprinkled a few drops of furry rain.
Xu Chuniang was happy, it seemed like she was on the right track.
“Again!”
“Aura into rain!”
Bean-sized beads of sweat broke out on Xu Chuniang’s forehead as she struggled to control her aura, but there were still only a few drops of hairy rain drifting down.
Xu Chuniang’s face turned slightly white, having used three spells in a row had depleted her few aura.
Feeling the depleted aura in her body, she frowned and summarized, “This time I’m clearly faster than last time, but the effect isn’t much different, it should be because I don’t have enough aura in my body.”
“It seems that the cultivation level of the first level of Qi Practicing can at most support me to use the Spiritual Rain Technique three times.”
Xu Chuniang rested for a moment, sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate, replenishing her depleted spiritual qi.
I don’t know if it was her illusion, but after Xu Chunniang replenished her spiritual qi, she realized that her cultivation level vaguely seemed to be a shade higher than before.
It was just that this trace of spiritual energy was too weak, and she wasn’t quite sure if she was mistaken.
Unable to figure it out, she decided to try again.
“Aura into rain!”
“Aura into rain!”
“Aura into rain!”
Using the Spiritual Rain Technique three times in a row, Xu Chuniang managed to consume all of her freshly replenished aura.
After seeing with satisfaction that she had made a small improvement with each use of the Spiritual Rain Technique, Xu Chunniang resumed her cross-legged meditation, she wanted to verify her suspicions.
After completely replenishing her spiritual energy once more, Xu Chunniang was pleasantly surprised to find that at this point, her spiritual energy was vaguely a shade higher than before.
This time, she could be certain that it was definitely not an illusion!
“Could it be that completely using up one’s spiritual energy and then replenishing it again can also serve the purpose of cultivation?
This method, can be much faster than simply meditating and cultivating, and both cultivation and arts and crafts!”
Xu Chuniang suppressed the excitement in her heart, “In that case, it seems that the study program will have to be adjusted slightly.
When your spiritual energy is full, you’ll cultivate the Spiritual Rain Art, and when your spiritual energy is gone, you’ll meditate to recover. After thoroughly mastering the Spiritual Rain Art, then learn the Spring Life Art!”
After practicing in this manner for a month, Xu Chuniang’s cultivation steadily increased while also thoroughly mastering the Spiritual Rain Art, an auxiliary art.
Spiritual Rain Art had already been learned, should she learn Spring Life Art next?
In a rare moment of leisure, Xu Chuniang sat on a rock at the edge of the water pool, her two feet gently poking around in the water pool. The current Xu Chunniang, although she could still only cast the Spirit Rain Art three times, compared to the beginning, whether it was the range of the spell, the duration, or the amount of Spirit Rain, it was all much stronger.
Seeing Xu Chunniang cast a Spiritual Rain Technique with her own hands, she saw a dense atmosphere above the water pool, and soon the rain fell.
The rain that was rich in spiritual qi fell into the water pool, causing ripples.
This spiritual rain lasted for more than ten breaths before fading away.
It could be seen that these days Xu Chuniang was definitely strictly executing the study plan she had set up.
Looking at this perfectly cast Spirit Rain in front of her, a hint of contemplation flashed across Xu Chuniang’s face.
The practice of the Spirit Rain Technique had gone well, but she always felt that it was almost something, since the range of the Spirit Rain could be increased, could it be reduced?
After all, this rain looked big, but the spiritual qi wasn’t really much.
If it was to be used to water the spiritual plants, would it be more effective to concentrate it?
Thinking of this, Xu Chuniang’s eyes lit up. She seemed to have found a direction to further practice her Spiritual Rain Art!
“Spiritual Qi into rain!”
Casting the Spiritual Rain Art once more, Xu Chunniang didn’t pursue a large range, long duration, and a large amount of rainwater like she did last time, but instead carefully controlled the range so that the Spiritual Rain Art’s range was even smaller.
Under her control, the range of the Spiritual Rain Technique was indeed smaller, only to see rain drifting over most of the waterhole, with only a small area to the west not raining.
“It really works!”
Xu Chuniang’s eyes grew brighter and brighter, and the direction of her practice this time around was to narrow down the range!
This time, it only took half a month for Xu Chuniang to complete her training, and she was already able to control the Spirit Rain Technique within a very small range.
“Spiritual Qi into rain!”
As Xu Chuniang let out a soft cry, she saw a bowl-sized cloud of vapor begin to dense in mid-air.
Not long after, a sharp spiritual rain gushed out from this cloud vapor, the scene was spectacular, like a small waterfall.
Xu Chuniang shook her head regretfully, it could only be this big for the time being.
It was just that this rain was also a bit too hasty, she was going to become a spirit plant husband in the future to take care of the spirit plants, what if this rain doused the spirit plants to death?
Xu Chuniang looked at the “small waterfall” that was still spraying rainwater, the rain was so big and so fast, what should be done?
Should we try to reduce the amount of rainwater? If the quantity is less, the speed of the rain will slow down, and the plants won’t be watered to death.
Xu Chuniang thought about it, and felt that she could try, and began to consciously control the amount of rainwater.
“No, the quantity is too much, it’s hard to control!”
After trying only once, she found out the hard way.
The rain was too much and too fast, wrapped in spiritual energy, and before she could even begin to control it, it was already smashing down.
Xu Chuniang shook her head bitterly, alas, it was all because she had practiced too hard over the past month or so, and her cultivation level had improved quite a bit along with it, causing the Spiritual Rain Technique to become more and more effective.
If it had been a different time a month ago when she could only cast out a few drops of furry rain, it might have worked.
Thinking of this, Xu Chuniang was suddenly stunned.
Reacting after a long while, she was both furious and amused herself, “Xu Chunniang, you’re such a fool!”
Disliking the amount of rainwater was too much, so if she used less aura, the amount of rainwater wouldn’t naturally decrease!
After she was able to control the amount of rainwater, she would increase her spiritual qi little by little!
“Spiritual Qi turns into rain!”
This time, she only used about one-tenth of her previous aura.
