Chapter 49 Tea Master Su Mu, Wall of the World
The petals melt in your mouth, and the taste is a bit like eating frozen lotus seeds, a bit icy and cool.
Then, a cool energy flowed down his esophagus and spread throughout his body in an instant, but the next second, he felt something unusual.
This cool energy passes through the body and reaches the depths of the soul.
Suddenly, he could clearly feel that his soul had been amplified. This feeling of comfort made Su Mu himself exclaim in amazement.
The most important thing is that it is not the power of the soul that has been enhanced, but the origin of the soul that has been sublimated!
Anyone who has come into contact with the practice of immortality knows that the soul is the most mysterious thing, the most important thing, and also the most fragile thing.
The cultivation of immortals is divided into refining the body and refining the Qi, but few have heard of refining the soul.
Because a person's soul is determined from the moment of birth and cannot be changed.
The change referred to here is the origin of the soul. The essence of the soul cannot be changed.
Just like if you are a human soul, it is impossible to change into the soul of a divine beast, or the soul of any other higher race.
However, we can get a glimpse of some legends about the soul from the records in some ancient books.
Legend has it that there are extremely powerful people in the universe whose bodies are destroyed but whose souls survive. After falling into the cycle of reincarnation, they toss and turn and lie dormant for hundreds or thousands of years. Then they are reborn again into a new body, start practicing all over again, and live a new life.
This is the importance of the soul. When one has reached a certain level of cultivation, the physical body is just a shell. As long as the soul is not destroyed, it is not considered death.
What's more, when one becomes powerful to an unpredictable level, even if the soul is destroyed, as long as the will still exists, there is still a glimmer of hope.
Therefore, the real supreme power is very difficult to be killed.
The battle between truly powerful men is not about killing your body, but about killing your soul and your will!
Then, the two things, soul and will, become particularly important.
Throughout history, as long as the cultivators have reached a certain level of cultivation, they will try every possible means to improve their souls.
The power of the soul is easy to improve.
For example, some demon cultivators refine the Ten Thousand Souls Banner to harvest other people's souls and put them into the banner. They can use it in combat or to enhance their own soul power.
However, it cannot elevate the essence of the soul.
The power of the soul and the origin of the soul are two completely different concepts.
To give a more appropriate example, you are a human being. After continuous exercise and strengthening of muscles, your limit may be to deadlift something weighing 500 kilograms.
But those giant elephants don't need much exercise. Once they reach adulthood, they can pack a punch of several tons with one kick.
This is the essential difference, the fundamental difference.
Su Mu had just eaten a petal of Lycoris radiata, which directly enhanced his soul essence a little, which made Su Mu so shocked.
Of course, not only the origin of his soul has been improved, but his spiritual power has also been improved.
Once his spiritual sense was awakened, his ability to sense the slightest movement within a radius of two kilometers was expanded to a radius of two point one kilometers.
Su Mu has always felt that this range of spiritual perception is very strange.
I am already a second-tribulation cultivator, but the range of my spiritual sense is only a few kilometers. This is outrageous!
He learned from the ancient book he got in the lottery that, let alone a cultivator who was transcending tribulation, even a small Jindan cultivator, once his spiritual awareness range was opened, could cover thousands of kilometers!
I can only sense the upper and lower two kilometers of this river, which is really off the mark.
Su Mu looked at the field of Lycoris radiata and came up with an idea.
Or, pull them all out and plant them in your own vegetable garden?
Su Mu pulled up two Lycoris radiata plants by their roots, ate one himself, and took the other one back to try to plant to see if he could grow it.
After Su Mu left the water area, the black fog continued to cover the entire water area and the stone bridge.
After returning to his stone house, Su Mu came to the vegetable garden next to him. Just when he was about to plant the Lycoris radiata, he found that the large white radish he planted the day before was growing well!
It seems that my vegetable growing skills are not bad.
Su Mu dug a new hole and planted the Lycoris radiata. After burying it, he used his magical powers to divert some river water and water it.
After doing all this, Su Mu stood up, brushed the dust off his hands, looked at his vegetable garden, and smiled with satisfaction.
At this time, he picked up another amaryllis flower and began to enjoy it.
With a wave of his hand, a stone table appeared under the willow tree, and a wooden chair won in a lottery was moved out of the stone house.
Sitting on the chair, he took out a set of tea sets from the space ring. I have to say that the four bosses who crossed the river the day before yesterday were really generous. They gave him a lot of money for the crossing fee.
For example, this set of tea set looks like a Ru kiln set, but I don’t know what material it is made of. It is very sturdy. The most important thing is that when you use this teacup to make tea, it has a magical soul-enriching effect and can help with cultivation. It is a rare treasure!
Su Mu picked up the Lycoris radiata, plucked off the petals, tore them into small pieces, and put them into the teacup.
With a wave of his hand, he transferred some river water into the boiling teapot. With a touch of his fingertips, a wisp of spiritual fire appeared at the bottom of the boiling teapot and began to boil the water.
While waiting for the water to boil, Su Mu was not idle either.
He took out a piece of crystal clear, tender and plump fish meat. It was the silver carp meat that he had not finished eating last time.
The silver dagger began to slice the fish into neat thin slices.
Just like that, a simple plate of sashimi is ready.
Although silver carp meat is not suitable for making sashimi, this is not just simple silver carp meat. This is precious silver carp, which remains fresh and tender no matter how long it is stored, and its appearance is far better than salmon.
The sashimi is ready, but I always feel like something is missing.
what!
Missing fruit!
Unfortunately, there are not even a few trees here, so where would the fruit trees come from?
After wandering around, he came to his own vegetable garden. Looking at the big white radish in the soil, Su Mu pulled it up and cut a small piece with a silver knife.
After cutting it, I buried it back. I have to say that its recovery ability is still very strong. The gap I cut last time has been completely restored this time!
After cutting a piece of radish meat, he put it on a plate and placed it on the stone table.
There are no real fruits, so let's use radishes as substitutes. How can radishes not be considered fruits?
After the sashimi and radish are prepared, the water is boiled.
There are certain rules for making tea. As a master of tea art, Su Mu rarely has a relaxing afternoon, so he should be magnanimous.
First, pick up the teapot and pour the boiling water into the teacup to warm the cup.
Then pour the water into the teacup containing the Lycoris radiata petals and let it steep while warm.
Use the tea lid to scrape the foam and clean the utensils, the dragon will escape from the trap and the tea fragrance will be stimulated.
Su Mu omitted the following steps such as "three fingers to make soup", "turning the sea upside down to gather the earth spirits", "laying down soldiers in formation", "Guan Gong patrolling the city", etc.
Su Mu has some generosity, but not much.
Simple is good.
Soon, a rich and refreshing fragrance instantly overflowed.
Su Mu gently picked up the teacup and was about to take a sip.
A loud noise came from the shore, as if something hit the river bank, and Su Mu almost lost his grip on the teacup.
Then, a nameless anger surged from my heart.
It’s okay to disturb your sleep, but it’s unbearable to disturb yourself while eating!
He picked up the silver dagger on the table and walked towards the river with a menacing look.
