Chapter 461 - 351
Chapter 461 of "Spiritual Energy Rejuvenation: I Began Cultivating By Farming" opens revealing: This was why they could cultivate without needing to go to the riverbank.When the Vine... Keep going!
This was why they could cultivate without needing to go to the riverbank.
When the Vine Elf discovered it could enter the ground, it felt that even without its original body present, it could absorb nutrients from the air during the night.
Suddenly it felt that being in this Magical Treasure wasnât so bad, so it contacted its master and had its original body taken inside.
Jiang Tang heard the Vine Whipâs message and solved its lodging problem, which was quite favorable.
By continually bringing his pets and subdued Demonic Beasts into the Hell Palace, Taoist priests had even less opportunity to cause trouble.
His vengeful ghosts also lost their chance to wreak havoc inside and couldnât be released.
Jiang Tang took the Vine Whipâs original body into the Hell Palace, knowing that just as plants needed water, Demonic Beasts did as well.
However, those ghosts could transfer; how they survived in the Hell Palace was not something he needed to ponder deeply.
The Vine Elf discovered that its original body had come to a place with water and that the water in the small river was good.
The plants by the river were Spirit Grass.
Moreover, the fragrance emitted by the red flowers strengthened its soul.
Having just become an elf, it required such soul-nourishing care.
Feeling grateful to its master for bringing it here, it willingly decided to take root in this place.
Jiang Tang was preparing to seal off this place and search for another base.
In the Primordial Treasure Lingtian Space, another Secret Manual appeared, found by Eryao amidst the cultivation efforts: a purple box emanating a purple glow.
Eryao, who discovered the box, said it had a mysterious aura, especially given that there were evil aspects to it.
As he looked at the box, staring into its purple glow, he frequently saw illusions as if he had entered another world.
A place that was not part of the space, these illusions nearly lured him in completely.
Jiang Tang was curious about what kind of Secret Manual this was.
Using his Divine Sense, he entered the space, opened the Secret Manual in Eryaoâs hands, and found it was a book.
This book was not suitable for his cultivation; it was full of Demon Cultivator Techniques and Spells.
Most importantly, it contained Demon Cultivatorâs medicines, and where there were medicines, there were antidotes.
Jiang Tang saw clearly that one of the plants inside was the very same purple-flowered plant he had just seen on a mountain.
In surprise, Jiang Tang became unsettled.
If there truly were Demon Cultivators in the Cultivation World, and they learned that plants from the Immortal Realm cultivated by Demon Cultivators had fallen here, couldnât they just turn them into medicines to harm The Mortal Realm?
This Spirit Plant was called âIllusion Color,â capable of entrapping those who harbored unfulfilled desires or dreams.
Once enchanted by the plant, they would be ensnared in their own fantasies, unable to extricate themselvesâa form of demonic possession through self-delusion.
If one coveted beauties or men, their body would undergo massive changes.
This kind of medicine was rather wicked, putting one under a spell, akin to an aphrodisiac.
Demon Cultivators who obtained this medicine could use it for other medicinal purposes, turning it into something that could control a personâs soul, turning them into their Puppets.
Jiang Tang glanced over the book and felt it was akin to a mind-controlling drug he had heard of in his previous life, where peopleâs minds were manipulated and exploited for labor, or tricked into giving up their fortunes, often for the purposes of running pyramid schemes.
They became tools for someone elseâs profit, breaking laws without realizing it and continually harming those around them.
If such a drug were to enter the Cultivation World, it would be a calamity.
Fortunately, he had just refrained from allowing those around him from picking the purple flowers, also considering taking these blossoms back to his clan.
Jiang Tang felt he absolutely could not let that happen; he had to collect these plants.
Those around Jiang Tang were only thinking about picking samples of the purple flowers when they returned next time, to sneak them back home.
He had merely glimpsed the book with his Divine Sense in the space, and if not for the strength of his Divine Sense, he too would have been enchanted by the mere glow of the book.
Suddenly, Jiang Tang waved his sleeve, while others did not know what he was doing, nor did they understand why he made such a sudden movement.
He had already gathered all the plants that had suddenly sprouted on the mountain, including their roots, into the space within his body.
As for why he did not put these plants into the Primordial Treasure Lingtian Space, he naturally had his considerations.
He had understood that these plants could be harmful to humans but, if used properly, could potentially be medicinal products that benefit the people.
If Demon Cultivators got their hands on them, they would become medicines that control and harm people.
As for why, if used properly, they would be medicinal products that benefit the people?
The book he had just read not only introduced this type of plant and its ability to be made into various kinds of medicines but also described the antidotes for these medicines.
Aside from being made into medicines that harm people, the plants could also be made into medicines that heal people.
This was a multifunctional plant known as Illusion Color; it could be used to make medicines that control people.
If utilized properly, along with some other medicines, it could be made into a pill called âHeart-saving Pill.â
Jiang Tang automatically interpreted this as being for Heavenly Immortals with heart disease, or those whose hearts had stopped beating, or perhaps for a person on the brink of death, possibly suffering from heart failure, which could hasten their demise.
With this pill, one could almost claim to bring the dead back to life, a truly miraculous medicine.
However, for diseases like cancer or AIDS, as classified by scientific terms, this medicine did not have such effects.
Jiang Tang automatically thought that if another herb were added to the prescription, it might just work.
Medicines produced in the Cultivation World could indeed be omnipotent.
He thought of the Vitality Flower in his space; the Vitality Flower, combined with Illusion Color and a few other Spirit Grasses, should be able to alleviate these diseases.
He definitely wanted to experiment with them, but it was a pity that even if he succeeded in creating such a medicine, he could not bring it back to his previous life to benefit the people.
However, if it could be of use in the Cultivation World, it would suffice, as there were still many mortals suffering from diseases waiting for death.
He not only wanted to make a difference in the Cultivation World but also to use his own space and medicines to benefit the people.
This was why he wanted to establish two bases: one base to handle some matters of the Immortal Realm, creating vast wealth.
The other base was for research, developing ordinary medicines to benefit the people.
However, these ordinary medicines also had their extraordinary aspects, such that if ordinary people took them, it would be like consuming Immortal Pills, a hundred times more effective than seeing a common doctor.
Jiang Tang possessed a sense of danger and, while doing good deeds in silence, he could not let good actions turn bad, nor could he allow the bases he established to become the evil doings of a demonic sect.
He had some particularly domineering Cultivation Techniques, which he never used openly to avoid drawing the attention of others.
The true members of Righteous Sects might see him use these domineering techniques and encircle him.
They could find a reason to eliminate him, and he did not want to become someone who everyone would want to attack.
The aspiration to benefit the people was not necessarily borne out of vanity, nor was it a tool to cover up his ambitious ambitions.
Being aware of danger is integral to doing anything significant.
If done right, it would definitely invite envy from others, who may want to claim his achievements as their own.
In his previous life, Jiang Tang, a college graduate with no business experience, came from a well-off family, though not one that dominated the business world.
He watched TV dramas about powerful individuals using their abilities to continuously acquire profitable companies, bankrupting and taking over their competitors.
Jiang Tang had also considered that with his ability to create Supreme Elixirs and sharing Secret Manuals with others to learn from,
perhaps the Top Ten Clans or some powerful beings would use their capabilities to try to take over his Saint Sect.
That was why he did not expose his secrets.
He could lose external possessions or businesses he had established, as they were extraneous and could not be taken along upon Ascension.
But the space and Magical Treasures he owned, except for the Primordial Treasure Lingtian Space, which others might seize, and the Hell Palace which could also fall into the hands of others, his personal space would always remain his own.
This was why he stored all the mysterious items in his personal space, so even if those two were taken away, others could not use his belongings to harm people.
