My Daily Life of Farming in the World of Cultivation

Chapter 65: Chapter 65: The Vine Turns into a Long Whip
 

10 meters, 20 meters, 30 meters, upon reaching its mature period, the vine had grown to a length of over 80 meters.

At this point, there appeared in front of Fang Yun a completely dark vine, emitting a cold, hard luster, covered with sharp spikes.

This vine was finer than any of the previous ones, merely as thick as a fist, and with the spikes included, it was only as thick as a calf, yet it was over 80 meters long.

Fang Yun sensed every single detail within the vine, feeling the gradual cessation of development in the vine’s cells.

Subsequently, with a thought, the vine began to whip around in the air, moving at an extremely fast speed.

The sharp spikes swept through the air, creating a series of whistling sounds.

Fang Yun felt particularly satisfied with this, although the ultimate power would still need to be tested against actual Cultivators.

At this stage, the cultivation of the vine was considered complete.

Even if he wanted to continue cultivating it, he temporarily had no idea how to proceed.

However, there was still one issue; the growth of the vine still required roots for nutrient uptake.

If he wanted it to become a weapon, he must make it independent from the roots.

Or rather, he should allow its roots to detach from the soil, not fixed in one place.

Only then could it be a qualified weapon.

If it were other Cultivators, this might prove to be difficult.

But for Fang Yun, who possessed Life Essence Qi, providing sufficient energy to the vine was not a particularly tough task.

Now it was time to see whether detaching the vine from the soil would greatly affect it.

Thus, with a thought, Fang Yun began to extract the roots of the vine from the soil.

The vine had branches over 80 meters long, although its root system was not as long.

But it still reached over 50 meters.

However, these were all extremely fine roots.

The main root system was only a little over one meter long.

As all the roots were extracted, they scattered beside the spirit field.

Fang Yun directed the roots with his Spirit, causing them to coil around each other.

Eventually forming a handle over one meter long.

Fang Yun stepped forward and grabbed this handle, gently lifting it, feeling as if he was holding an 80-meter-long, spike-covered whip in his hand.

With a light flick of his hand, the whip instantly danced through the air, whooshing through it.

The tip of the whip, striking the air, produced one explosion after another.

Even Fang Kangsheng, who was cultivating inside the cave, couldn’t resist running out.

Looking at the terrifyingly ferocious whip in Fang Yun’s hand, his eyes inadvertently revealed a look of envy and excitement.

Wishing he had such a formidable weapon himself.

Fang Yun merely glanced at Fang Kangsheng, ignoring him.

After playing for a while, he looked at the whip in his hand and grew increasingly satisfied with it.

Although in his imagination, powerful Cultivators should be wielding Immortal Swords or some terrifying Magical Treasures.

But thinking about his profession and the characteristics of the Golden Finger, this whip seemed like the most suitable weapon for him.

Such a weapon had the terrifying attacking power of other weapons, and when necessary, it could be coiled up as a defensive weapon.

Meanwhile, if this weapon suffered any damage, his Life Essence Qi could restore it at any time.

Such a weapon, compared to those Magic Artifacts and Magical Treasures mentioned in legends, was obviously much more convenient and suitable for him.

Following that, Fang Yun sensed the plant cells within the vine and discovered that after being separated from the soil, they didn’t show much discomfort.

Perhaps it was because the vine had just completed its growth and still had sufficient energy.

Later on, as the energy decreased, Fang Yun would use Life Essence Qi to energize them.

Of course, aside from Life Essence Qi, he might also use Mana to energize them.

At this point, Fang Yun thought that he had not yet tried to see what kind of effects the vine would show under the influence of Mana.

Thus, the Mana inside Fang Yun’s Dantian quickly reached his hands and then flowed into the vine he was holding.

At this moment, through sensing the vine, Fang Yun could clearly feel a stream of energy moving slowly from the handle to the tip of the vine.

All the energy gently covered the outer walls of plant cells in the vine.

It occupied all areas beyond the plant cells in the vine.

With the fusion of Mana and sensing within the vine, Fang Yun’s control over this vine reached an unprecedented level.

With a slight thought, the vine coiled back, burrowed into his clothing from under his sleeve, and then formed layers of protection around his skin.

With such strong control, Fang Yun was not worried that the sharp thorns on the vine would harm him.

However, although the vine was only as thick as a fist, the thickness when layered up was still quite formidable.

Fang Yun merely allowed the vine to wrap around his body twice, and he felt like the clothes could hardly endure the expansion of the volume.

And there was still a large portion of the vine remaining outside.

Clearly, Fang Yun’s sudden idea to hide the vine under his clothes was temporarily impossible to achieve.

Subsequently, with another thought, the vine shot out from his clothing, propelled by the powerful energy supplied by Mana, and thrust forward.

It moved so fast that it tore through the air, emitting a terrifying screech.

After waving it around for a while, Fang Yun realized that maneuvering this vine did not consume too much Mana.

Having used it for so long, Fang Yun’s Mana was only reduced by a notch.

Even less than what would be consumed by using a Spirit Talisman.

Thinking it over, Fang Yun felt that the main reason was that using Mana to maneuver the vine did not apply too much force.

One aspect was mainly to provide a certain level of protection, the other was to give the vine a certain acceleration.

These aspects, in terms of protection, had not yet been tested, and he did not know the result or the consumption.

In providing acceleration, Mana merely played an auxiliary role, so it was normal for the consumption to be low.

By now, Fang Yun finally had a reliable means of attack.

Concerning the safety issues after leaving the island, he could also put his mind slightly at ease.

Thinking of leaving the island, Fang Yun glanced at Fang Kangsheng beside him.

According to his rate of cultivation, Fang Yun estimated that it would still take about a year to leave.

This was already the fastest he could manage; otherwise, it would take even longer.

He wanted to say something, but considering that this speed was already fast enough for the Fang Family’s past cultivators,

and moreover, Fang Kangsheng’s regular practice was already strenuous enough, saying more would only pressure him further without much effect.

In that case, it was better to continue waiting.
