Chapter 49 The Flesh Field, Autobiography
Hundreds of feet away, there is a waterfall cascading down a hundred feet.
From the pool beneath the waterfall, a winding river extends down the mountain, irrigating the spiritual fields on both sides along its course.
at this time.
In the middle of the fields, there is a simple and rustic thatched cottage with a courtyard surrounded by an earthen wall.
Lin Zhou arrived at this place holding the token.
Pushing open the door, one's eyes are drawn to an elderly man with gray hair and a long face, sitting on a grand chair in the courtyard. The old man slowly opened his eyes after hearing the commotion outside.
He got down from the armchair and looked Lin Zhou up and down.
"Junior brother, come with me."
"Senior brother, my name is Wang Dalong."
"I have here the detailed list of this Class C, Number Three medicinal field."
"The record shows the exact number of Dragon Vine Grass in the medicinal field, as well as their growth year, and also twenty Dragon Beard Grass plants that Elder Ge planted in a corner of the medicinal field during the Lunar New Year."
"Elder Ge's twenty Dragon Beard Grass plants are newly developed, improved by soaking them in demon blood. Dragon Beard Grass should not be touched."
"All you need to do each month is pour one bucket of demon blood on it."
"The demon blood will naturally be delivered by Elder Ge's disciples."
"There's nothing else to explain. Junior brother, our job isn't difficult; it's more like a leisurely position."
"The contribution points we earn each month are quite fixed. However, if someone like Elder Ge were to come and plant some experimental herbs in our medicinal field, Elder Ge would definitely reward us with some contribution points once the Dragon Beard Grass has grown well."
"Junior Brother will definitely receive the contribution points for this reward."
"Remember, if Elder Ge really gives you contribution points, don't forget your senior brother!"
Wang Dalong led Lin Zhou through the fields with a smile, occasionally showing Lin Zhou the list in his hand and talking to the dragon vine grass in the medicinal field.
"Junior brother, your cultivation level is too low right now."
"If you're not a Qi Master, and wild animals come into the mountains, you'll only be able to rely on your weapon to drive them away."
Wang Dalong patted Lin Zhou on the shoulder and immediately sensed that Lin Zhou didn't have much internal energy.
He immediately frowned slightly and said.
At the same time, Wang Dalong already understood that these must be scions of powerful families from Qingzhou Prefecture who had come to train.
Lin Zhou and Wang Dalong chatted for a while longer, getting along quite well.
Now that Wang Dalong has retired from this position, he plans to retire and stay in charge of the branch sects he has established in several large county towns under the Fenglei Sword Sect.
Although he could no longer stay in the mountains, Wang Dalong longed for life down in the mountains.
After all, it's quite boring on this mountain.
All he could do was watch over the medicinal herb field every day.
"Junior Brother Lin."
"I'll be leaving now, senior brother. If you have time later, remember to come visit me in Sihai City."
"And after you've given your contribution points as a reward, don't forget to share some with your senior brother!"
"Thank you in advance, senior brother."
Before leaving, Wang Dalong gave Lin Zhou a long speech.
The text mentions several times that Elder Ge later rewarded Lin Zhou with contribution points and offered him a share of the profits. It also states that this sharing of profits is simply a rule followed by all the disciples guarding the medicinal fields, and it is not something he intentionally targeted at Lin Zhou.
This has been mentioned several times, so it can be said to be quite clear.
After seeing off Senior Brother Wang Dalong, Lin Zhou returned to the courtyard and began to search through the rooms. He even found several old books.
It must have been seen by Senior Brother Wang Dalong himself, and now it's placed in the corner of this table, covered in dust.
Lin Zhou was quite interested in this.
He sat down in the armchair that Wang Dalong had left in the courtyard and began to look through the old books left by his senior brother.
"This…"
Lin Zhou found it quite novel as soon as he started flipping through the pages.
This old book records the story of that flesh field.
This flesh field needs to be refined using special demons. Once the flesh field is formed, the flesh and blood of demons can be harvested one after another. The flesh and blood can also be mixed with precious medicines. The flesh and blood of demons grown in the flesh field is even more effective than some great pills.
However, if one consumes too much of the demon flesh in the flesh field, one may be affected by the demon's lingering resentment.
In severe cases, it could even lead to demonic possession.
Nowadays, most of the top sects in Qingzhou Prefecture cultivate large-scale meat fields within their sects. However, alchemists harvest the flesh and blood of demons from these fields and refine it into meat pills.
The alchemist refined and purified the flesh pill, removing any lingering resentment and some of the demonic toxins within the flesh.
It can be said that the Flesh Core is the most coveted item among the monthly offerings of martial artists at or above the Core Formation stage within the sect.
Even a powerful flesh core can help a martial artist in the Core Formation stage break through their own realm.
The contents of this old book opened a window for Lin Zhou.
The record above details the first step for a novice alchemist: cultivating flesh fields to extract the flesh and blood of demons.
Through certain precious medicines, the vital energy within the flesh and blood of demons can be sublimated, and in the process, the lingering resentment of the demons is also eliminated.
This is how one becomes a novice alchemist. As for intermediate alchemists and above, the standard is whether or not they can refine flesh pills.
Lin Zhou then closed the book about the flesh field and picked up the second book, which was an autobiography written by a Gangjin elder of the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect, recording some demonic events in Qingzhou Prefecture.
Ordinary demon soldiers are at the Transformation Realm, while elite demon soldiers are at the Core Formation Realm.
The initial level of demon generals is at the Gang Jin cultivation level.
In this book, the powerful expert of the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect killed two low-level demon generals in his lifetime, and had a great reputation throughout Qingzhou Prefecture.
"A demon general!?"
Lin Zhou read in the autobiography that a demon general had fled from the border to Qingzhou Prefecture, and that the imperial court and the four major sects had sent six powerful experts to search for that demon general.
In the process of fleeing, the demon general devoured all the humans in three county towns, totaling more than 800,000 people.
It took the combined efforts of six powerful cultivators to kill him.
They dismembered the demon general's corpse.
As for the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect, because of their considerable contribution, they were given the head of the demon general. After returning, the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect used the demon general's head to forge many weapons of the treasure level.
The treasure weapon is a very handy weapon for both those who have reached the Core Formation stage and those who possess the罡劲 (Gang Jin) strength.
Afterwards, Lin Zhou flipped through several ancient books, which contained records of many ancient medicinal materials, as well as identification guides for modern precious medicines.
Very detailed.
These books were probably left behind intentionally by that senior brother Wang Dalong.
...
Soon, it was noon the next day.
"Check-in."

hum!
Just as this "breath-swallowing" entry appeared, another entry in the entry library was attracted and resonated with it.
