Chapter 37 The new function of charcoal mana
Ripening spiritual plants requires more than just skills, but also various supporting materials and fertilizers.
Spiritual plants may not be able to bear fertilizers of too high a grade, and fertilizers with inappropriate properties may have the opposite effect.
In addition, the cost issue must be considered. If a first-level spiritual grass is ripened with too much fertilizer, can the cost be recovered?
In short, it is all about learning.
After a period of practice, Li Xiuchang found that he was really forced to eat in the spiritual plant way by God.
He also mastered the ripening of spiritual plants very easily, and he became completely proficient after practicing for a short time.
Now he has become very good at ripening first-level spiritual plants.
"The practice of spiritual plant skills ends here first. There is not much fertilizer left, and there is not enough land."
"After I go out, I will sign up for the first-level spiritual plant husband assessment."
Li Xiuchang felt that with his current level of spiritual plant skills, it should not be difficult to pass the first-level spiritual plant husband assessment.
During this period, he found that as long as he practiced the spirit plant skills, the length value would increase extremely rapidly, much faster than when he practiced the spirit cooking and alchemy skills.
Of course, compared with the time when Senior Brother Motu taught him, the length increased by more than an inch in just a few hours, the difference is still a bit big.
Sure enough, there is a big difference between having a master to teach and not having a master to teach... Li Xiuchang is more looking forward to Zhao Yuansi giving him alchemy lessons in the future.
He gave the remaining fertilizer to the ghost couple and entrusted them to take care of the spirit plants in the yard, intending to practice alchemy.
But when his eyes swept over a bag of black ash fertilizer, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind-can I make my own fertilizer?
The raw materials for the fertilizer used to cultivate spirit plants are mainly monster feces or ash. If he remembers correctly, charcoal can also be used as fertilizer, which is similar to ash.
Then can his charcoal attribute mana be used for fertilization?
The more Li Xiuchang thought about it, the more he felt that there was a way.
So he used the first-level spiritual herbs and medicinal herbs that he had just planted as guinea pigs and began to inject charcoal-attribute mana into the soil around their roots.
In this attempt, Li Xiuchang did not control the amount of mana injected, and three spiritual herbs died one after another.
But it also made him see the feasibility of this idea.
At least the spiritual herbs can absorb his charcoal-attribute mana!
Finally, Li Xiuchang succeeded in the fourth spiritual herb, which increased the growth rate of this spiritual herb visibly.
Li Xiuchang was extremely excited. The charcoal-attribute mana not only played a role in the spiritual kitchen, helping him earn several thousand spiritual stones, but now it seems that it will also shine in the spiritual planting!
Do you know what it means to be able to use mana to fertilize spiritual plants?
It means that mana can fertilize!
Judging from the performance of the fertilization just now, the effect of charcoal-attribute mana fertilization is better than ordinary first-level fertilizers.
And this effect may be improved as Li Xiuchang's cultivation increases.
This means that he can ignore the cost of fertilizer when planting spiritual herbs and medicinal herbs in the future, and can make the spiritual herbs and medicinal herbs mature faster.
To put it bluntly, there is only one function: to make him earn more spiritual stones!
Li Xiuchang fertilized all the first-level spiritual plants in his yard. With the successful experience just now, he did not fail again.
All the first-level spiritual plants in the yard were successfully fertilized!
"It seems that my charcoal attribute mana is a universal fertilizer. It is applicable to all spiritual plants. It is powerful!"
After mastering the skills, Li Xiuchang tried to fertilize ten Youhan grasses in the yard.
Although the fertilization was successful, the effect was greatly reduced.
It is equivalent to using first-level fertilizer to fertilize second-level spiritual plants. It is normal that the effect is poor. It is estimated that it can only be improved when Li Xiuchang's cultivation level is improved.
But it doesn't matter. Mana doesn't need spiritual stones. He decided to use charcoal attribute mana to fertilize Youhan grass when he is free, which can speed up the growth of Youhan grass.
In the following days, Li Xiuchang fertilized the spiritual plants in the yard every few days, and used the rest of the time to practice spiritual cooking and learn alchemy.
Both skills require fire. After Li Xiuchang's charcoal-attributed magic power is used to make fire, thick smoke billows. As his cultivation level rises to the middle stage of Qi training, the power and toxicity of the smoke also increase accordingly.
Fortunately, Li Xiuchang only uses one furnace, and the smoke is not large. He asked the ghost couple to help collect the smoke, and he can also sell some spirit stones with the smoke.
To be ashamed, Li Xiuchang worshipped Zhao Yuansi, the master of alchemy, as his teacher, but he is still at the stage of talking about it on paper in alchemy, and has never made a furnace of elixir.
After reading the book "The Beginning of Alchemy", Li Xiuchang finally started to make elixir.
As an apprentice of alchemy, he thought that he might have made low-level elixir such as Bigu Dan at the beginning, but in fact, pill-shaped elixir such as Bigu Dan is not something he can handle now.
Now he can only refine such medicines as "Bawang Liquid" for treating hair loss, "Yuenan Powder" for treating abdominal pain during menstruation, "Hui Jing Powder" for nourishing the kidneys, "Dingtian Oil" for delaying ejaculation and aphrodisiacs...
After entering the middle stage of Qi training, Li Xiuchang has less need for sleep and can basically work all night every day.
He refines pills during the day and cooks at night, doing both alchemy and cooking.
As for the soul control, due to lack of conditions, it can only be put aside for the time being.
Li Xiuchang can only practice ghost catching and controlling skills with the ghost couple when he is free, but the improvement is not great.
...
There is no time in "work hard", and in a blink of an eye, Li Xiuchang has been in seclusion for more than two months.
In the past two months, according to the speed of the growth of the length value, Li Xiuchang has ranked his talents in various skills.
The first talent is definitely the spiritual plant skill, and it is a crushing lead.
The second is alchemy, but his alchemy talent is not much better than the third spiritual chef talent, and the soul control talent is the lowest among the four skills.
Two months of hard study and practice allowed Li Xiuchang's length value to break through the five-inch mark!
Length value: 5.03.
Li Xiuchang originally planned to work hard for a year or so before coming out of seclusion, but two things happened in succession disrupted his plan.
In the past few days, two people came to the door one after another. Seeing that Li Xiuchang was in seclusion, they just left a message on the guard formation and did not disturb him.
The guard formation has a message function, and the message left will be transferred to the identity token through the formation.
Li Xiuchang read the message. The first message came from the outer gate general affairs hall, saying that he should go to the general affairs hall in the near future.
The reason was that Li Xiuchang would be 18 years old in a few days. According to convention, outer disciples had to go to the General Affairs Hall when they turned 18 to undergo routine inspections, inquire about their progress in cultivation and skills, and receive a "coming-of-age gift" from the sect.
The second message came from Li Xiuchang's master Zhao Yuansi.
Zhao Yuansi summoned all his disciples to attend classes at Zhao's mansion in half a month.
Li Xiuchang was immediately in trouble. He couldn't push these two things, but he couldn't leave this sect. What should he do?
