Rising from Small Cloud Rain Technique

Chapter 53: Chapter 51: Water Curtain Technique

Ji An executed the spell, stretched his hand forward, and the wooden carving on the windowsill flew into his hand. Entry level of Object Control Technique.

He changed the spell and felt a light spirit qi enveloping his entire body. Taking a gentle step forward, he leaped three meters away, mastering the entry level of Wind Control Technique.

Fortunately, he took a few steps back when practicing magic; otherwise, he would have had a close encounter with the wall.

The magical power flowed through his body, bringing a cool sensation.

Ji An cast a spell, and a hemispherical water curtain with faint blue spirit light appeared in front of him, entering the entry level of Water Curtain Technique.

A second later, the Water Element Spiritual Qi was no longer bound by the spell, quickly dissipating and disappearing without a trace in an instant.

Finally, Ji An began to practice Geng Metal Finger.

Perhaps because of his foundation in Sharp Gold Technique, this spell seemed the easiest to him.

The magical power inside his dantian was mobilized and circulated along a specific route within the Immortal Vein.

With a gentle tap of his left pinky finger, dark golden spirit light burst forth, carrying a sharp aura.

The whole process was very smooth, without any obstruction.

It was as if he had practiced for a long time; it didn’t seem like it was his first time casting this spell.

This spell had low control requirements, just needing to gather Gold Element Spiritual Qi together as much as possible, then release it all at once.

“Hehe, I was born to be a magic cultivator!”

With a narcissistic smile, Ji An concentrated and communicated with the Stone Turtle.

He wasn’t sure if it was an illusion, but he felt the blue color on the Stone Turtle’s back was more restrained, and the black stripes at the Kan, Xun, and Kun positions were more pronounced.

“Is it really giving me face like this?!”

Seeing the progress of the Water Curtain Technique and Geng Metal Finger, Ji An shouted with satisfaction.

Numerous spells and heartfelt insights did not go to waste; they all received feedback.

Old Turtle, refine Kan Spirit, let me see the limits of our power!

His divine sense was pulled into the Stone Turtle’s law space, and a misty water aura rose from the Kan position.

Having not refined spirit mechanism for a long time, countless insights poured into Ji An’s divine sense like a waterfall, feeling comfortable and marvelous.

The number of Kan Spirits continuously decreased, while the progress of the Water Curtain Technique steadily increased, reaching mastery, minor achievement, great success…

When the spell broke through to perfection, Ji An immediately stopped refining the spirit mechanism; at this time, there were still 78.2 points of Kan Spirit remaining.

After leaving the profound mysterious space of the Stone Turtle, he again activated the spell to cast the Water Curtain Technique.

The water curtain, with a much deeper color, guarded in front of him, giving the impression that it was flowing; the spell lasted for a full three seconds before dissipating.

During the spell’s duration, he could even control the position of the water curtain.

Feeling satisfied!

The smile on Ji An’s mouth could no longer be concealed. A Water Curtain Technique at the perfection level; perhaps even the most elite members of the Demon Hunting Squad haven’t reached this level.

However, his smile soon faded because he thought that even when choosing defense magic, others would most likely choose Gold Element or Earth Element spells.

For instance, the Golden Armor Technique, which uses Gold Element Spiritual Qi to create a layer of spirit light covering the body, can absorb a significant amount of damage and lasts long enough.

Alright, I won’t be arrogant.

Ji An lit a censer, calmed his spirit and cleared his mind of distractions, then consumed a Ginseng Essence Pill and began cultivating with the Qingyuan Scripture.

The spiritual power contained in the pill was quickly refined, but there was always a part that couldn’t be refined in time and escaped from his body.

This was also why he was so keen on improving his aptitude; with high aptitude, the speed of refining spiritual power is faster, and taking pills wouldn’t waste medicinal power, or at least waste very little.

If not for the Jade Pill’s effect being too poor, he would’ve been reluctant to use Ginseng Essence Pills for cultivation.

…

At dawn the next day, Ji An finished his cultivation, ate a bowl of spirit rice and half a bowl of dried vegetable stewed rabbit meat, then shouldered a cloth bag for seeds and cheerfully stepped towards Old Huang’s spirit field.

At this time, the slightly hunched Old Huang was already standing at the edge of the field, eyes filled with reminiscence and reluctance.

At his feet lay a dusty cloth bag.

Ji An coughed lightly and warmly greeted:

“Senior Brother Huang, good morning.”

Old Huang snapped back to reality, took out a handful of Wood Element Beads, and handed them over:

“Brother Xiao’an, you’ve arrived! At the beginning of Jade Corn planting, you need to supplement the spirit field with Wood Element Spiritual Power; this will help the seeds germinate and grow better.”

“Thank you, Senior Brother. These things should have been prepared by me.”

Ji An accepted the Wood Element Beads and expressed his gratitude respectfully.

“It’s nothing, let’s get started.”

Old Huang straightened his body, raised his voice, and said loudly:

“The initial steps are the same as planting Yellow Sprout Rice; use the Flame Fire Spell to clear weeds and pests.

However, this is a Tier One Spirit Field, so the weeds and soil pests have stronger spell resistance, requiring several more spells to…

As he was speaking, Ji An had already cast the Flame Fire Spell.

The spell precisely covered this acre of spirit field, and all the weeds, regardless of size, turned into flying ash.

A gentle breeze blew, and a faint aroma of meat wafted over.

What… has the Flame Fire Spell also reached Great Success Level?

Old Huang swallowed his words. His Fire Element Technique was still at a minor achievement level, needing at least two or three casts to achieve such an effect.

Feeling a sudden dryness in his throat, Old Huang coughed a few times to clear his throat:

“Let’s continue.

First, use the Thick Earth Technique to guide the Earth Qi, then activate the Wood Element Beads to nourish the land, and then sow the seeds.

When planting, the spacing between plants should be two fingers wider than when planting Yellow Sprout Rice.”

Ji An nodded and leisurely cast the Thick Earth Technique, with a thick and embracing spiritual mechanism spreading through the spirit field. Under the sunlight, the soil glimmered with yellow spirit light.

Countless strands of green spirit light were activated from the Wood Element Beads, merging into the field.

With a motion of Object Control Technique, the crystalline green seeds scattered like raindrops over the leveled land.

He practiced this spell diligently during his spare time yesterday.

Because the seeds were very light, controlling the drop points was relatively easier, even though they were abundant in number.

“Alright, pause for a moment.”

Old Huang called out, dragging the cloth bag at his feet and walking around the spirit field, evenly spreading the grass ash inside it across the field.

He returned to Ji An’s side, grinning:

“After harvesting Jade Corn, burning the stalks and mixing in some other plant ashes can reduce aphid damage to the spirit grain in the first two months.

This is something I learned from a senior brother. Tonight, I’ll have Flying Tiger send over a jade slip with notes on growing Jade Corn to you.”

Ji An looked at Old Huang’s smiling face and bowed:

“Thank you, Senior Brother.”

In the future, he would undoubtedly plant many acres of Jade Corn, and these insights would be very helpful to him.

Old Huang had done so much that if Ji An didn’t take good care of Huang Feihu in the future, it would be unjustifiable.

“Just a little trick, Brother Xiao’an, don’t feel it’s beneath you.”

Old Huang quickly stepped forward, helping Ji An up.
