Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 404 Amber Mysterious Root, Red Treasure Fiery Flower, Sky Fan Grass!

Although Qingshan, the old bull, had no self-control and was greedy and wasteful, which really wasted Li Ye's expectations for him as a wood-element demon king, he had been entrenched in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range for many years but had not accumulated enough fourth-level spiritual plants.

In the end, there were only three fourth-level spiritual plants presented to Li Ye, and they had little to do with what Li Ye needed for cultivation or even practical use.

But at this point, for Li Ye, who values entries more than spiritual essence, even if it does not meet his own needs, it will not prevent him from cultivating it as an aid to accumulate and solidify the progress of entries.

After sending the old cow away, Li Ye continued to plant the fourth-level spiritual plants on hand.

The earliest accomplishment that Li Ye advanced to the fourth level was planting, and he also intentionally collected a lot of inheritances from the countries in southern Xinjiang.

Although he had not obtained the other fourth-level inheritances, this spiritual plant technique had always been the most popular, and it was not difficult to obtain with the Nascent Soul status.

Not to mention that after the Nascent Soul stage, the Taiyi Qingmu Divine Light and Qinghua Mu Divine Fire that are promoted through sacrifice not only have their power increased, but once used to care for spiritual plants, their miraculous effects can eliminate many planting techniques and secret skills. I wonder how much the difficulty of caring for spiritual plants is reduced!
Therefore, even though it was the first time for Li Ye to take care of and plant these magical plants, he was able to do it with ease and in an orderly manner.

Pingyang Mountain now has about five acres of fourth-level spiritual fields. After a few years, the boundary formed by the Sky Realm Tree and the Blue Sky Tree Sea will be more stable. Combined with the new fourth-level spiritual veins in the mountain, it will be enough to elevate the essence of Pingyang Mountain to a higher level.

By then there will be more suitable places to open up spiritual fields.

As for now, these fields are more than enough to cultivate the three spiritual plants on hand.

The three spiritual plants he obtained were Amber Mysterious Root, Red Treasure Fiery Flower, and Sky Fan Grass.

The Amber Mysterious Root is just as its name suggests, a spiritual rhizome plant buried deep underground. When it is a seedling, it does not look magical, and is gray and looks like an ordinary sweet potato.

As the years go by, the tea will gradually become transparent and clear, turning into an orange-gold color. The texture will also become softer, and it contains honey that can be obtained by breaking the skin.

However, this honey liquid is not a nourishing substance. Instead, it is easy to shape. After being refined, it will become extremely tough and has a strong sealing effect. Apart from that, it is of no benefit to the cultivator's practice.

Among cultivators, even if they cultivate it, they use it to seal precious spiritual objects and plants for long-term preservation, or as a material for refining poison.

Some special demon races with unique survival abilities also use this seal to preserve their offspring.

In the ancient secret realms of southern Xinjiang, this object is often seen as a spiritual seal.

Such things are of no use to Li Ye now... He doesn't even have time to use the treasures or powerful monster eggs for himself, so how can he have the mind to seal them?
The red Zhenlie flower is slightly better.

This is a spiritual plant of the fire element. It looks like a flame that is always burning. It has a special spiritual energy. Once picked, it will immediately combust. If it is not properly stored, you will get nothing. In addition, you will be contaminated by the flames of this flower and burned to ashes!
However, it is quite popular among fire-type monsters, and some fire-type skills seem to require the use of this item to practice secret techniques.

Although Li Ye has no use for it, if he can cultivate some, he can sell it as a commodity. Moreover, the spiritual energy of this flower can increase the power of fire. If the fire is insufficient when refining the elixir, he can use the spiritual energy to accelerate its growth!
The remaining sky fan grass is a wind-related thing.

Its shape is like a dandelion, but more gorgeous. The large number of tiny blades that make up its body are constantly fanning out tiny air currents, which accumulate and turn into wind balls that wrap itself to form a circle of protection, enough to repel most of the approaching existences.

If it's extremely old, it can even summon a storm to envelop itself. It sits like the eye of a storm, enjoying the sweeping spiritual energy, yet remaining motionless. This herb isn't suitable for medicinal use in alchemy, but it's quite suitable for refining wind- or fire-based magical weapons. If you could obtain one as a supplementary ingredient, your magical weapon would surely reach new heights!

These three fourth-level spiritual plants all have one common characteristic, that is, although they can produce corresponding seedlings, they are all born from the evolution of the spiritual power of heaven and earth.

In this way, in a place like the Wanshou Mountains where the spiritual veins are quite concentrated and there are many spiritual energy gathering nodes, there is indeed a chance for it to be born.

In fact, most of the spiritual herbs that had entered the stomach of the old cow Qingshan in the past were in the same situation. However, they were of no benefit to the old cow, so they were preserved.

Although they each have their own functions, some of which are even magical, in Li Ye's eyes they merely represent corresponding terms.

Amber Root has special properties. Although it is a rhizome spiritual plant in the ground and tends to be earth-based, it is hard to say what the final feedback entry will be.

If new entries can be derived from the sealing properties of the honey, it would be a small surprise!

As for the Red Treasure Fiery Flower and Sky-blowing Fan Grass, they are most likely the [Fire Spirit] and [Wind Spirit]. In addition to enhancing his abilities in the two areas of fanning the flames, they can also complete the puzzle for Li Ye's fourth-level [Green Spirit] and [Celestial Phenomenon].

In this world of cultivating immortals where there are more people than resources, it is quite good to be able to plant some fourth-level spiritual plants first!

[You skillfully planted the fourth-tier spiritual plant [Amber Mysterious Root], maximizing its vitality. Experience +200...]
[You planted with exquisite skill...]
Li Ye was thinking to himself as he watched the information on the panel appear one by one, and the smile on his face became more and more intense.

When he was in the southern border countries, he himself had not yet broken through to the Nascent Soul stage. Although he had the support of the fourth-level body refining and his own natal puppet, he still felt a little insecure and was always tense.

After returning to the land of the Four Kingdoms, he was always busy planning his advancement to the Nascent Soul stage. Even after his breakthrough, he hadn't had a few days of peace and quiet before Lao Niu Qingshan became an uninvited guest who wanted to disrupt his Nascent Soul ceremony.

Until now, reopening the spiritual field once again and planting spiritual plants personally made him feel the long-lost peace and comfort.

"This kind of stable life is more suitable for me..."

Li Ye sighed.

The land of Shikoku is indeed a bit barren, but that may not be a bad thing.

Even if the Southern Border states were in turmoil, the righteous and evil factions, and the Yanshen Sect were fighting fiercely, he could hide in this small, unnoticed place and secretly upgrade his nest to the fourth level. No matter how turbulent the outside world was, he would close the door and cultivate his own fields...

Even if the improvement is not fast, it will avoid a lot of troubles and bring a sense of peace.

"Hmm... Then we'll see if any Nascent Soul sects can no longer hold on and follow the lead of the Golden Core sects, fleeing to my little place to avoid disaster..."

Li Ye thought silently.

No matter who comes, as long as they have the strength to fight, don't even think about ruining his peaceful life at this time!
If the countries in southern Xinjiang haven't learned enough lessons, Li Ye doesn't mind teaching them some more!
