Chapter 60 Food Is the Most Important Thing for People

The secret realm of the health-preserving furnace is rooted in the Longhu Mountains, between reality and reality. It is like a mirror image of the real world, but it is real.

Li Yuan looked around and could see the hazy edge of this secret realm, with the real dragon and tiger mountains outside it.

He lowered his head and grabbed a handful of dirt, rubbed it gently, and let it slip from his fingers. There was sand and traces of vitality invisible to the naked eye.

"Mixed truth and falsehood!"

Li Yuan's heart trembled. This was even more terrifying than the transformation of true energy. If this goes one step further, could it become the real world?

"More than two thousand years ago, the two ancestors worked together to refine the health-preserving furnace, and used their own supreme power as a chain to trap the health-preserving furnace in the mountains..."

At this point, Gong Jiuchuan began to speak more casually, revealing some real secrets.

More than two thousand years ago, heroes competed for the health-preserving furnace. Finally, Zen Master Longyin and Taoist Chunyang jointly won the sacred furnace and founded Longhu Temple.

"From my ancestor to the present, for more than two thousand years, all the ancestors of my Longhu Temple have passed away here when they died. The true energy dispersed in the dark and nourished this secret realm."

Gong Jiuchuan pulled out a weed from the ground and blew it gently, and the weed dispersed like smoke:

"Now, this secret realm is no longer what it was originally. It has many more wonderful uses than before..."

Longhu Temple is supporting this secret place.

Li Yuan's face was full of wonder, but his heart was moved. Maybe this is one of the reasons why Longhu Temple can hold the Longhu Health Furnace for a long time?

Maybe, and incense?

Li Yuan thought of the various temples scattered throughout Longhu Mountain. In the past few months, he had gone to pay homage to various ancestors. However, every temple was guarded by people, and the incense could be seen but not touched.

He was a little curious at the time, where the incense from Longhu Temple was used, but now it seems that it is probably all in the secret realm of the health furnace.

"You can't move around at will in the secret realm. You haven't entered yet, so why don't you go to my place for a walk first?"

Gong Jiuchuan smiled slightly and walked slowly towards the mountains.

Li Yuan quickly followed up, feeling the secret of this health-preserving place at the same time.

…

Jinyuduo belongs to Longyin Hall, located on the Nine Peaks of Longyin, adjacent to the Thirteenth Peak of Huntian. The mountains are not densely packed, and there are even large open spaces between the mountains, where all kinds of vegetation and food are grown.

At first glance, it looks no different from the outside world.

But as he got closer, Li Yuan was shocked to find that the things growing in the fields here were not food from the outside world, nor medicinal herbs.

More like, a mixture of the best of both worlds.

These crops are as tall as a person, with stalks about the thickness of a thumb and knots as thick as an arm, with large ears about half a meter long, all red, like agate.

"Senior Brother Gong, what is this?"

Li Yuan was surprised. He had read a lot of books, but he had never seen this kind of crop.

"Red Jade Spirit Rice, a crop cultivated by my Jin Yuduo, needs to be watered with the blood of various spiritual beasts to grow. It is an indispensable auxiliary material for various spiritual elixirs in the temple."

Gong Jiuchuan stretched out his hand to touch the ears of wheat and said carefully:

"This kind of spiritual rice is very delicate. Not only does it need the blood of spiritual beasts and various fertilizers to nourish it, but it also cannot survive outside the secret realm."

"Lingmi?"

Li Yuan clicked his tongue in surprise: "Since it is rice, does that mean it can be cooked and eaten directly?"

He wanted to pinch it for a while, but seeing how cautious Gong Jiuchuan was, he had no choice but to give up.

"A grain of rice is worth an elixir, and it has no poison. It not only nourishes the body, but is also very delicious. Unfortunately, the portion is too small, and it is not enough for elixir..."

Gong Jiuchuan walked forward slowly, followed by Li Yuan, listening to him introduce this secret realm.

Spirit rice is not a new thing. According to Gong Jiuchuan, similar things have existed for thousands of years, but the quantity is very small and it is not widely spread.

"Food is the most important thing for the people, and those who practice martial arts in our generation have a greater appetite. In ancient times, I even heard that there were warriors who ate four cows a day and one elephant at night. Although it is an exaggeration, it also shows that the more you practice martial arts, the more you eat. The greater the consumption.”

Chapter 60: Food is the most important thing for the people.

Gong Jiuchuan paced:

"It sounds like spiritual rice, but it is actually the food eaten by warriors. However, it is still not large-scale at present. Farming is not as simple as practicing martial arts."

Li Yuan nodded, still looking at it.

In addition to the red jade spiritual rice, various "spiritual plants" are also planted on the flat land between the mountain valleys, including ginseng that looks like a radish but hangs on the straw.

There are "golden rice" that are gathered together and shaped like bananas.

Each has its own uses and tastes. Many disciples shuttled between them, taking care of them and watering them with high-quality mountain spring water mixed with the blood of spiritual beasts.

"It's really a different world compared to the outside world."

Li Yuan was a little emotional.

He still doesn't know the other branches of Longyin Hall, or what Hun Tiantian looks like here, but he can tell a lot from this golden and jade rudder.

Gong Jiuchuan's residence is not far from the place where red corn is grown. The environment is very good, and a small courtyard is located next to a stream.

Seeing that Li Yuan was curious about spiritual rice, Gong Jiuchuan took out some red corn and cooked it in a pot. Soon, a refreshing fragrance hit his face.

“Good rice!”

A few ears of wheat were enough to cook two pots of rice. Li Yuan opened the lid of the pot. After the rice was cooked, it was as clear as pomegranate seeds. It had a strong aroma and was even sweeter in the mouth.

After taking a bite, Li Yuan felt warm in his abdomen. As his stomach wriggled, the heat spread slowly. Although it was not strong, it was long-lasting.

"It's worth a blood accumulating pill!"

Li Yuan's eyes lit up.

The Blood-Nourishing Pill is one of the several kinds of pills in the **, but it is still a pill. You should not take too many pills. But with his appetite, it is no problem to eat a few more bowls of grain.

"Spiritual rice is not grain, do you want to eat it as a meal?"

Seeing his expression, Gong Jiuchuan knew what he was thinking, because he had thought about it before:

"One catty of purple corn is equivalent to three bottles of Blood-Nourishing Pill, but its value is more than thirty times higher than the latter. Moreover, with your current ranking, you only have a quota of 300 catties a year. With your appetite, how many days can you eat it?"

"Only 300 catties?"

Li Yuan swept away the rice like a whirlwind, and then he was satisfied.

"300 catties is not a small amount. This is an auxiliary material for alchemy, not food."

Gong Jiuchuan glared at him unhappily: "If you want to eat it as a meal, you must grow it yourself."

"Grow it yourself?"

Although he said it unintentionally, the listener was interested. Li Yuan had thought about it before. When he heard him say this, he immediately climbed up the pole and asked about seeds.

These kinds of spiritual rice cannot be separated from the secret realm, but he always carries a secret realm with him. It is always right to try it first to see if it can be successful.

"Do you think you can grow it?"

Gong Jiuchuan was speechless, and generously took out a handful of seeds and stuffed them into Li Yuan's pocket: "If you can grow these spiritual rice outside..."

As he said this, he shook
