Chapter 14 – Spring Life Technique and the Usage of Spirit Dew
“The Spiritual Rain Technique is originally to use spiritual qi to turn rain and use it to irrigate spiritual plants. This enhanced version of Spiritual Rain of mine, let’s call it Spiritual Dew, just so it can be distinguished from ordinary Spiritual Rain.
Let’s fill this bottle with Spirit Dew first, and wait a few days to see if the aura is still sufficient.”
For the rest of the day, Xu Chuniang had been collecting Spirit Dew, and it took about two days of work before she was able to fill up a bottle with Spirit Dew.
After obtaining a bottle of spirit dew, Xu Chunniang took the bottle back into her storage bag and stopped caring about it, taking out another jade slip, which was precisely the Spring Life Technique.
“After spending three months, the Spirit Rain Technique is finally skillfully mastered. It’s time to learn the Spring Life Technique.”
The Spring Life Technique was a wood-based technique, capable of transforming the spiritual qi in the body into wood attributes, catalyzing the growth of spiritual plants, and shortening the growth time of spiritual plants.
Xu Chuniang had originally thought that the purity of her wood spirit root was far inferior to that of her water spirit root, and that the learning progress of this Spring Life Technique was bound to be slower than that of the Spirit Rain Technique, but unexpectedly, after only two attempts, she was able to make the Spring Life Technique come out smoothly.
There were no plants inside the cave, so in order to practice this Spring Life Technique, she walked out of the cave and casually found a piece of forest and started practicing.
The object she used to practice the Spring Life Technique was originally just an inconspicuous weed by the side of the road, but with the operation of the Spring Life Technique, the weed started to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye, and grew half an inch taller.
Xu Chuniang herself was startled by the amazing growth of the weeds in front of her, was the Spring Life Technique so powerful?
However, she quickly figured out the trick, originally, the Spring Life Technique worked on spiritual plants, but she didn’t have any, so she could only use ordinary plants instead.
Under the urging of spiritual qi, this weed simply couldn’t withstand that much spiritual qi, so it was hardened and grew taller.
If the Spring Life Technique was applied to a spirit plant, the effect would definitely not be as obvious as this.
After thinking about it, Xu Chuniang stopped dwelling on it and continued practicing the Spring Life Technique.
Perhaps thanks to the use and control of the Spiritual Rain Technique, the practice of the Spring Life Technique went exceptionally smoothly, and within a week’s time, Xu Chunniang was able to cast the Spring Life Technique without thinking.
Only to see that the weeds that she had catalyzed would jump up a little higher. This was still the result after she had reduced her Spring Life Technique aura to one-tenth.
The Spring Life Technique was not like the Spiritual Rain Technique where the amount of spiritual energy was fixed and could only be reduced but not increased.
A spell like the Spring Life Technique that worked on a single spirit plant could even drain the caster’s entire body of spiritual energy at once.
In order to practice the Spring Life Technique more often, Xu Chuniang kept the amount of spiritual energy invoked during each spell to a minimum.
This was also the reason why she was able to master the Spring Life Technique after practicing for only a week; the foundation laid by extensive practice was extremely strong.
After using the Spring Life Technique like a finger, Xu Chunniang wasn’t satisfied with it, and just like her previous practice of the Spirit Rain Technique, she began to ponder on other methods of casting the Spring Life Technique.
“While the Spiritual Rain Technique casts spiritual rain within a certain range, the Spring Life Technique has an effect on individual spiritual plants.”
Xu Chuniang put the two techniques together to make a comparison, “I can change the range and quantity of the Spiritual Rain Technique, so that the spiritual rain can have an effect on individual spiritual plants. Then, in turn, can I make the Spring Life Technique work on a wide range of spirit plants?”
The more Xu Chuniang thought about it, the more she felt that this matter was feasible, she could do it in a gradual manner like she did with the Spirit Rain Control Technique, first try to see if the Spring Life Technique could take effect on two spirit plants at the same time, and if it could, then slowly increase the number of spirit plants.
“But before that, I have something else to do.”
Xu Chuniang took out an elixir bottle from her storage pouch, the very one filled with spirit dew.
Gently opening the bottle, Xu Chuniang was pleasantly surprised to find that the liquid in the bottle still possessed an incomparably sufficient amount of spiritual qi! Compared to seven days ago, the Spirit Dew in the bottle contained less spiritual qi, roughly a quarter less, with three-quarters of the spiritual qi still remaining!
Although only three-fourths remained, the spiritual qi in this small bottle of spiritual dew was very abundant.
Xu Chuniang estimated that she had probably used her Spiritual Qi to transform rain a full twenty times before filling up this bottle, and even if she lost a quarter of it, there would still be fifteen times of Spiritual Qi remaining!
Knowing that with her current cultivation, she could only use the Spiritual Rain Technique a total of three times, this was equivalent to the fact that the aura in this tiny elixir bottle at the moment was almost five times as much as the aura in her entire body!
“It’s a pity that this aura can only be preserved for a month at most ……”
Xu Chuniang shook her head, a trace of regret flashing through her eyes.
There was no telling how long it would take for her to become a qualified Spirit Plant husband and be able to access spirit plants, so it seemed that these Spirit Dew, after all, could not escape being wasted.
She reached out her hand and gently poured the spirit liquid onto the ground, and saw the surrounding aura visibly strengthen.
More than seventy percent of the aura dispersed in all directions, leaving less than thirty percent of the aura to be unintentionally absorbed by the surrounding vegetation.
These vegetation that had absorbed some of the spiritual qi didn’t grow like the grasses and trees that had been utilized with the Spring Life Technique, only their branches and leaves looked much more lush and green.
It was just as she had expected earlier, these collected spiritual dews were still able to work on the plants.
It was just that these plants were not spirit plants and the amount of spiritual qi they could absorb was limited.
Xu Chuniang’s heart stirred, since the spiritual qi in these spiritual dews could be absorbed by plants, would …… it be useful to people?
The spirit dew in the bottle had already been poured most of the way through, leaving only a shallow layer at the bottom of the bottle. Xu Chuniang gripped the bottle tightly and carefully sprinkled some Spirit Dew onto herself.
However, she saw the aura in the Spirit Dew that landed on herself dissipate at a not-so-slow pace, and soon scattered cleanly, with not even a single trace remaining.
Seeing this scene, Xu Chuniang’s teeth itched with anger.
This Spirit Dew was obviously something she had worked hard to transform with her spiritual energy, and as a result, these grasses and trees outside were able to absorb a little bit of it, but she was fine, she couldn’t even use half of it.
Xu Chuniang had forgotten that this spiritual dew was originally evolved from the spiritual rain in the Spiritual Rain Technique, and this spiritual rain was originally used to water the spiritual plants and increase the spiritual qi of the plants, and how it could be used to “water” people!
But under her heartache and irritation, she had clearly forgotten about this.
“I don’t believe that I can’t use the Spirit Dew I personally refined myself!” Xu Chuniang clenched her teeth and made a bold attempt.
She raised her hand and actually drank the last few drops of spirit dew in the bottle!
Xu Chunniang wanted to see where the spiritual qi in her stomach that she drank from could still run away to!
Spirit dew into the body, Xu Chuniang only felt the body’s spiritual qi exceptionally full, but a few moments later, these spiritual qi will irregularly in all directions began to dissipate …….
Xu Chuniang hurriedly put away the medicine bottle, sat down cross-legged, and began to absorb the spiritual qi in her body. It took a while before she finished absorbing the spiritual qi in her body.
“Absorbed most of it, about two thirds of it, the rest has dissipated ……
These spiritual qi are not different from the spiritual qi I usually absorb when I cultivate, which means that I can use the Spiritual Dew to replenish my spiritual qi, or even use it to cultivate!”
Xu Chuniang was pleasantly surprised, she had actually done it, really letting her find a way to absorb the Spirit Dew!
Cultivating with this Spirit Dew that was rich in Spiritual Qi, although it wasn’t as good as directly cultivating with Spirit Stones, it was many times faster than ordinary meditation and absorption!
But in the blink of an eye, the joy on her face ceased and was replaced with a look of heartache and regret.
Her Spirit Dew ah!
The entire bottle of Spirit Dew that she had spent two whole days of work to collect had actually all been poured out by her!
