Chapter 165 - 163: Spirit Plant Variety Improvement!

Yao Qing benefited greatly from these two tasks. Although the apparent rewards were not very substantial, she won a lot of trust from the Foundation Establishment Cultivators behind the scenes.

Hence, she had full confidence in Lu Xuan and hurried over to sense his presence immediately.

“Senior Sister Yao, what exactly is this about?”

Lu Xuan asked in confusion.

“Junior Brother Lu, are you familiar with the improvement of spirit plant varieties?”

Lu Xuan shook his head. He was a self-taught practitioner. Although he had supplemented his knowledge related to spiritual plants and beasts significantly since joining the sect, it was still insufficient.

For instance, he had only mastered the Spirit Seed Condensing Method for Spirit Firefly Grass and Blood Jade Ginseng. As for the matter of improving spirit plant varieties, he had not even come into contact with it.

However, in the course of cultivating numerous spirit plants, he had gradually come into contact with this aspect.

Because of the invasion of the Demon Envoy in Linyang Market, a large number of spirit plants in ‘Bai Cao Tang’ had mutated. Although Lu Xuan had resolved the situation, he wondered if any surviving mutated plants would develop into a new species of spirit plants?

There was also a Sister who loved Spirit Fruits in the Sect. Due to the influence of the growth environment, the Flaming Fruits she planted only needed to be nourished by Yin Fire. Over time, the effects of the Spirit Fruits produced should be different from the regular Flaming Fruits.

Plus, there was the hybrid Ink-Scaled Jiao (Dragon Serpent). Since beasts could produce hybrid creatures through crossbreeding, wouldn’t it be easier for plants?

Seeing him in this state, Yao Qing quickly explained.

“Teacher Uncle He recently cultivated a batch of variant spirit seeds, which have been planted. Since she’s busy and energy is limited, she now needs an experienced Spirit Plant Master to cultivate the variant spiritual plants every day.

They need to observe the growth condition of the plants and report any abnormalities promptly.”

Lu Xuan nodded, then asked Yao Qing.

“Senior Sister Yao, will I be the only one cultivating spirit plants, or are there other fellow sect members as well?”

If Junior Brother Lu agrees, it will be just you. After all, there are not many variant spirit plants, and one Spirit Plant Master is sufficient.”

“What about my level of freedom?”

Yao Qing thought for a moment before replying.

“As long as Junior Brother Lu can cultivate those variant spirit plants properly,

Teacher Uncle will not care what you do with your other time.”

“That’s good. I’m used to being idle and cannot tolerate many restrictions. I hope Senior Sister can understand.”

Lu Xuan nodded. No matter the task, he needed to have time to return to his own cave and cultivate the spiritual plants, which were currently his means of survival.

Besides, he also disliked being controlled by others. The sophisticated level of spirit plant cultivation he could exhibit was because after completing the ‘planting’ procedure, he could understand the detailed condition of the plant. If someone was always watching, it wouldn’t be easy to perform well.

He asked Yao Qing a few more questions about the details of the task, and after confirming there were no issues, he happily agreed.

After tidying up his cave dwelling, both of them rode a Spirit Crane separately.

After a while, they landed on a beautiful mountain peak.

“Junior Brother Lu, why don’t you need to pay Spirit Stones when you use a Spirit Crane?”

As they moved amongst the various peculiar spirit woods, Yao Qing couldn’t help but ask.

“Because I have a small connection with the Linghe tribe of the sect. They don’t even want the Spirit Stones I forcefully give them, so I eventually stopped.” Replied Lu Xuan, as he looked around at the number of towering spirit trees. ’’This is Teacher Uncle He’s daily living spot. She is proficient in rune crafting, therefore, most of the spirit trees she grows can be used for rune-materials,” explained Yao Qing, seeing that Lu Xuan seemed curious.

They soon arrived in front of an elegant small building.

The small building was surrounded by a layer of deep green bamboo, tightly pest-proofed.

Yao Qing took out her identity plaque and waved it in front of the bamboo. A wooden door appeared in front of them as the spiritual light flickered on the bamboo.

As they entered the courtyards, Lu Xuan saw a graceful woman sitting quietly.

The woman was dressed simply, with various exotic flowers and plants flickering behind her.

Upon hearing the sound of the two entering, the strange images at the back disappeared instantly, leaving behind a lingering fragrance. The graceful lady opened her eyes and looked at the two lightly.

“Teacher Uncle He, this is Disciple Lu Xuan. He has an extraordinary talent in the spiritual plant path,” introduced Yao Qing, bowing ceremoniously to the lady, referring to Lu Xuan.

“Greetings, Teacher Uncle He.”

Lu Xuan also hurriedly bowed.

Disciple Lu, I’ve heard Yao Qing mention you several times. Initially, I planned to post this task in the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, but she suggested that you could give it a try. Hence, I asked her to bring you over.”

The graceful lady said, smiling.

“I am grateful for your trust and kindness, Teacher Uncle He and Senior Sister Yao Qing. I promise to do my utmost to care for and help cultivate the variant spirit plants.”

“Alright, I believe in you. Let’s head to the Spirit Field to take a look first.” The lady led the way, with Lu Xuan and Yao Qing following behind, walking among the towering spirit woods.

’’Junior Disciple Lu, how much do you know about the improvement of spirit plant varieties?”

On the way there, the lady asked.

“Not much, I would appreciate your guidance, Teacher Uncle,” answered Lu Xuan.

There are mainly two methods of cultivation: one is to stimulate the seed during the gestation or storage phase, causing it to undergo changes, thereby producing a new breed of spiritual plant.”

“The other kind has to do with changing the spiritual environment and growth conditions of the plants during their growth process, allowing them to adapt continually. This eventually leads to variations in the plants themselves.”

“Both of these cultivation methods require a large number of spiritual seeds or plants. Even now, when I am in the Foundation Establishment Mid-term Realm, I can’t afford to experiment often.”

“More importantly, the changes that the spiritual seeds undergo after stimulation are unknown. You don’t know how the new spiritual plants should be cultivated, what rank the spiritual plant would be once mature, or what its effects would be.”

“A lot of the time, the spiritual seeds end up being completely ruined, or the resulting spiritual plants fall far short of expectations, and are far worse than the original.”

“As for using various extreme measures to stimulate the plant into changing, it could easily lead to severe damage to the spiritual plant itself, and also requires substantial resources to support.”

The lady patiently explained.

“Thank you, Teacher Uncle.”

Lu Xuan nodded with a tumultuous heart.

“The first method, stimulating spirit seeds, doesn’t seem to be a problem for me. Once the seed is planted, I know its rank, effect, cultivating method, etc. Those low-ranked or even ineffective spirit seeds can be directly filtered out, so I won’t waste my energy on them.”

“As for the second type, that’s even less of a problem. If extreme means harm the spiritual plants, I can control the damage level by understanding the instantaneous state of the spiritual plant. Even if the damage is severe, 1 can provide targeted treatment.”

In that case, I seem to be quite suited for improving spirit plant varieties.”

Lu Xuan nodded to himself.

But the biggest problem is I don’t have any spirit stones!”

An excellent housewife can’t cook without rice. His limited wealth will not make any waves if devoted to the improvement of spirit plant varieties..
