Druid in the Xianxia world

Chapter 15: Second Ring Spell, Owl's Wisdom

After determining that it was not cost-effective to cultivate outside of Yunmo's Heart Lake, Zhong Cang felt a little regretful, but his face did not show any excessive discomfort, nor despair.

Without resource support, the speed of one's cultivation would slow down, which was within Zhong Cang's expectations.

And he has a solution to this.

"Contracted pet... If the thing I asked Youyun Chamber of Commerce to find out about really exists and I purchase it, spiritual energy cultivation will instantly become easy for me instead of difficult."

"Hopefully they can find it soon."

Thinking of this, Zhong Cang, who found it difficult to practice outside, returned to the tree-planting team again. While directing others to plant trees, he also took the initiative.

After all, Zhong Cang's system is a druid professional system, not a lord system. Therefore, the contributions of others cannot all be attributed to Zhong Cang.

Fortunately, it was because of Zhong Cang's influence that these people embarked on the path of planting trees and protecting the environment.

Even if not all of their labor can become Zhong Cang's income, one third of it will still be his.

That is, when Li Yan, Yan Yanyan and others plant a tree, Zhong Cang will not gain 0.3 experience points, but will gain 0.1 or 0.2 experience points.

At the same time, for every tree these people plant, Zhong Cangmu's tree man's task completion rate will only increase by about 0.3.

And when he personally participates in it, not only will the efficiency of tree planting become higher, but the proportion of income he obtains will also increase.

"Previously, I had 0.1 experience points, but now it's all 0.2. Tree planting progress has also increased..."

While sighing, Zhong Cang used the language of plants to feel the condition of the saplings, and then according to their mood, he either watered them or added more loose soil.

Sometimes, he would use plant growth skills to inject natural forces into the saplings, allowing some weak saplings to grow healthier.

Others dug holes and watered the plants while Zhong Cang used his skills to check on them.

In the barren mountains outside the spiritual land, Zhong Cang and others were busy for the entire afternoon.

When it was getting dark and everyone was tired, Zhong Cang asked them to stop.

Afterwards, Zhong Cang did not take them back to the village. Instead, he gathered everyone together and called Li Yan and Yan Yanyan over.

"Remember those who did a good job just now? Call them out and I will reward them."

"Boss, I remember everything. Feng Sheng, Dong Zheng... Come here quickly, it's time to give out rewards."

Upon hearing that the reward was coming, everyone looked at Zhong Cang expectantly, and Zhong Cang... did not disappoint them.

He did not reward with money or encourage with words, but instead he moved his mind and cast a spell - the God Berry Spell - at a bush under his feet.

"Wow..."

As the spell was cast, the shrub that had produced a few small fruits suddenly grew, and the fruits became larger and rounder, looking bright red and very tempting.

Because the power of spring was used together with the power of nature, the spell released by Zhong Cang this time was very successful. This bush produced thirteen magical berry fruits.

After picking these fruits, Zhong Cang gave them to Li Yan and Yan Yanyan, and asked them to distribute them to the others.

"Eat it."

After receiving Zhong Cang's order, Li Yan and Yan Yanyan swallowed it without any hesitation.

"Gudong..."

As the fruit entered their stomachs, their tired and sore bodies, which had been busy all afternoon, were restored to normal in an instant.

Because of their abundant vitality, their faces became rosy and they seemed to have infinite energy.

Such obvious changes made the eyes of other people who obtained the magic berries light up. Then, without hesitation, they also swallowed the magic berries, and their fatigue disappeared, and their vitality was restored.

When the Godberries were eaten, there were thirteen more energetic people on the scene.

After receiving the benefits, they looked at Zhong Cang with gratitude and admiration, and the same was true for those who didn't get any. This was due to the wide knowledge of the Qigong practitioners. If ordinary villagers saw Zhong Cang's skills, they would probably bow down and worship him as a god.

While thinking about something, Zhong Cang said to the others, "This is a small spell I learned after practicing martial arts. This spell can make the berries of the God Berries grow. After you eat them, not only will you feel full, but your fatigue and injuries will also be healed by the vitality contained in the God Berries."

"So, don't worry about getting hurt by planting trees. Just eat the Godberries and you will become healthy."

"And the Godberry isn't the end. I said I would help you sense spiritual energy, and that wasn't false."

At this point, Zhong Cang looked at Li Yan and said, "Your team is the winner this time, but the merits you've accumulated are not enough. Tomorrow, if you can win again, I will use magic to bless you, making it easier for you to sense spiritual energy."

"Thank you, Boss. I will try my best."

The reward promised by Zhong Cang excited Li Yan and others, and Zhong Cang, what he said just now was naturally not false.

At level three, a druid can choose second-level spells, which include the famous animal-blessing spells, such as Strength of the Bear, Grace of the Cat, Eagle Vision, and Wisdom of the Owl.

Among them, the added attribute of Owl's Wisdom is perception.

And induction, induction, the thing that is most closely related to this state is naturally the perception attribute.

Therefore, as long as Zhong Cang is promoted to level three and chooses the spell of Owl's Wisdom, he can really make his followers' perceptions become sharper and sense the surrounding spiritual energy.

Of course, some people may say that this kind of temporary support can be achieved with some resources.

This is true, and many resources in this world can indeed do this, but such resources involving the spirit and soul have always been very valuable and are simply not something that a Taoist child assigned to the profession of Spirit Plant Husband can afford.

……

After witnessing with their own eyes and even feeling the effect of the Divine Berry Technique personally, and receiving Zhong Cang's renewed promise, all the Taoist children were excited.

As for Zhong Cang, he looked at the changes in his attribute column and felt a kind of joy after a good harvest.

"Twenty or thirty people worked hard for an entire afternoon. Even though I had high standards, ensuring that each tree had adequate spacing and had certain requirements for soil and watering, strength lies in numbers. In that afternoon, we still planted 1,300 trees."

"Excluding the losses, my Tree Shepherd progress has still increased by about 486. Now, the required task for the Tree Shepherd job change, step 1000, has become /."

"In two days, or even one day, I will have completed Task Three."

The progress of the mission was encouraging, but what made Zhong Cang even more excited was the increase in druid experience.

+331 points.

This is the professional experience Zhong Cang gained after planting 1,300 trees.

"After a busy afternoon today, I've accumulated enough experience points to advance from level 2 to level 3, and even have some to spare..."

Such progress is undoubtedly gratifying, which makes Zhong Cang unable to stop smiling when he leads the team back to Huangni Village.

Ignoring the gazes of his senior brothers and even without eating, Zhong Cang produced some magical berries and swallowed them. Then he returned to his residence and closed his eyes to practice.

Even though the cultivation speed outside was slow, he had some backup plans, but he still didn't want to waste time.

After several hours of practice, Zhong Cang was awakened by a series of prompts in the game log.

[You gain experience points +0.1]

[You gain experience points +0.2]

[Your progress in Tree Shepherd quest ③ +0.3]

【…】

"???"

"What the hell?"
