Qingcang Immortal Clan: Starting with Farming to Increase Luck
Chapter 8 Elixirs
Lu Yunxia's experience book mentions black sparrows. Although these little creatures are not very strong, they are very annoying. If you are not careful, they will cause trouble in the Spirit Valley.
They come most frequently, especially around the five-month mark.
Lu Yang has been guarding the edge of the spirit field for some time now, specifically to keep an eye on them.
Over time, Lu Yang has mastered the Small Spirit Cage Technique to perfection. Now, the insects in the spirit field are basically caught and fed to the fish before they even show their faces.
This was the first time he'd used it to catch birds, and to be honest, Lu Yang was quite eager to try it out.
With a flick of his finger, the spirit cage was unleashed, instantly covering the entire spirit field. The black sparrows swooped down, their momentum unstoppable, and caught off guard by the spirit cage, many of them were immediately captured.
Those that reacted quickly flapped their wings and fled.
However, Lu Yang's main point is that since he's already here, he's already done it.
A golden arrow points out from the fingertip, one, two, three...
"Killing two eagles with one arrow, killing three birds with one arrow... and nine stars aligned."

Lu Yang shouted excitedly, but the black sparrows were so anxious that they kept chirping and cursing, glaring at Lu Yang as if to say that they only came to eat some spirit grains, but he used the Golden Arrow Technique to serve them.
Most importantly, we haven't even tasted the Spirit Valley yet.
Lu Yang had a great time until his spiritual energy was completely depleted before he stopped. However, there were quite a few black sparrows that came this time, and a few of them eventually escaped.
He didn't care. After all, he needed a few black sparrows to spread Lu Yang's fame. Otherwise, it would be exhausting to guard against black sparrows every day.
Hundreds of black sparrows, some dead and some wounded, fell to the ground, prompting Lu Yang to sigh, "They truly are the most harmful birds to the cultivation world."
His small spiritual field has attracted so many people; one can imagine the sheer number of such people in the entire cultivation world.
I've heard that black sparrow meat is very delicious, and the restaurants in the market even sell it. Lu Yang didn't want to waste any, so he collected it all and prepared to cook it.
I must say, it actually tastes pretty good.
Indeed, although these black sparrows are mortal, they usually eat spirit grains and spirit rice, and with their flesh and blood nourished, how could they be lacking?
Just as Lu Yang was enjoying the crunchy treats, black sparrows continued to attack him in the following days. He didn't know if it was because his Qingling Barley was too tempting or because the black sparrows were too vengeful.
However, no matter what kind they are, it doesn't change their fate of delivering vegetables.
Come if you want, Lu Yang is happy to improve his meals, but his fishing plans are put on hold.
Another month has passed in the blink of an eye, and the harvest day has arrived. Lu Yang used his token to send a message to Lu Yunxia, asking her to come over for assessment and evaluation.
The token is just like a cell phone in the previous life. As long as you leave a mark on each other, you can make calls to each other, which is very convenient.
Of course, this is limited to the clan, since it's a regional network.
"We need to collect it!"
Lu Yunxia was somewhat surprised. She had originally thought that Lu Yang would need to cultivate his magic before planting, but now she realized that he was still a young man with an impatient temperament.
As a result, the harvest will likely be even more dismal.
Sighing inwardly, I felt somewhat disappointed.
Although Lu Yunxia hadn't held out much hope, it was still a first-tier spirit field. If the harvest was too poor, it wouldn't be right for her to ask Lu Yang to continue planting there.
After all, Lingzhitang has its own rules and regulations.
"Forget it, at worst we can let Lu Yang cultivate another spirit field. With half a year to hone his skills, cultivating one acre of spirit field should be about right. At least the clan won't gossip about it."
With this in mind, Lu Yunxia made a plan and headed straight for Lu Yang's spiritual field.
At Lu Yunxia's pace, it wouldn't take long, but the closer she got, the more surprised she became. Had she gone to the wrong place?
Below, a two-section courtyard stands tall, filled with flowers and plants, and also housing fish and shrimp.
The bluestones and vegetation are neatly arranged, creating a unique charm.
Outside the courtyard is more than two acres of spiritual fields, surrounded by bluestone and neatly divided into eight sections, arranged in a staggered manner.
Not only the spirit field itself, but even the area around it was perfectly tidy.
Most importantly, these two acres of spirit fields are growing very well, with plump ears of grain. They are clearly top-grade spirit grains. If judged by the Spirit Plant Hall's standards, they would be rated as superior.
The harvest may exceed the target by 30% to 50%.
Good heavens, is this still the spirit field she allocated to Lu Yang? Has it been outsourced?
However, Lu Yunxia quickly had no more doubts. She saw a figure lying on a rocking chair by the field, holding a teapot in his left hand, a book in his right, and a parasol above his head, looking very relaxed.
Upon closer inspection, who else could it be but Lu Yang!
Good heavens, she's already enjoying herself? Thinking about how busy she was like a dog at the Spirit Plant Hall, even though Lu Yunxia was in a good mood, she couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
Boom!
A tremor sounded from the side, startling Lu Yang. He immediately used a Water Mirror Technique, and only when he saw that it was Lu Yunxia did he finally relax.
"Auntie, why didn't you say anything? You scared me!"
Lu Yunxia glared at Lu Yang with a hint of schadenfreude in her eyes. She was annoyed that the kid was so carefree, so she had to scare him. Otherwise, a bear might just snatch him away.
Wait, "Water Mirror Technique!"
Lu Yunxia then noticed the Water Mirror Technique in Lu Yang's hand. Good heavens, could it be that Lu Yang really planted these two acres of spirit fields?
If he still has the energy to learn the Water Mirror Technique, then could he have also learned a few of those spiritual plant techniques?
"Auntie has a discerning eye. I just learned this skill, and you scared me so much that I used it. I'm sorry for making a fool of myself."
Lu Yunxia ignored Lu Yang and looked at the spirit field instead. "Did you plant this?"
"Oh, so they can hire people of a certain race?"
Lu Yang seemed to have discovered a new continent, but Lu Yunxia quickly nipped his idea in the bud, rolling her eyes and saying, "Of course not, don't do anything reckless. But with this kind of growth, how many spiritual plant techniques have you learned?"
Lu Yang thought for a moment and then appointed the top leader.
"Five gates! It seems you are indeed exceptionally talented in learning magic, but..."
Lu Yunxia looked at Lu Yang's cultivation level. Although it seemed to have improved compared to when they first met half a year ago, it wasn't much. He probably spent all his cultivation time farming.
Thinking of this, Lu Yunxia frowned and rummaged through her storage bag, finding a bottle of pills.
"This is a Spirit Nourishing Pill, suitable for low-level cultivators, but it should not be used in large quantities. One pill per month is sufficient to increase cultivation speed."
Now that you have mastered five spiritual plant cultivation techniques and gained experience in spiritual field planting, you should focus your energy on cultivation. Do not put the cart before the horse and neglect your cultivation.
Lu Yunxia actually felt guilty. With Lu Yang's talent for cultivation, he should have reached a higher level. It was clearly because she arrested child laborers that Lu Yang's cultivation was delayed.
If the clan leader saw this, he would probably take Lu Yang away. Whether out of guilt or to win Lu Yang over, giving him this Spirit Nourishing Pill would be a worthwhile investment.
Looking at the pill Lu Yunxia handed him, Lu Yang silently straightened three fingers on his other hand. "Is this appropriate?"
"There's nothing inappropriate about it. The Spirit Plant Hall is fair in its rewards and punishments. Consider this bottle of Spirit Nourishing Pills as a reward for your excellent performance in the assessment."
The two and a half acres of barley are now ripe. I estimate that it will increase our income by 30% to 50%. What are your plans? Will you hand it over to the clan or sell it yourself?
Upon hearing this, Lu Yang, who had just received the Spirit Nourishing Pill, fell silent for a moment. "I'd better give it to the clan. It will save me the trouble of selling it. But I still need to keep some seeds and food for myself."
Lu Yunxia gave Lu Yang a look that said, "I knew I hadn't misjudged you." "Okay, then I'll leave you 20%, and I'll take the rest with me. The standard price for one mu of Qingling barley is ten contribution points according to Lingzhitang."
Your quality is good, and there's even a surplus. I won't let you lose out. Besides the 20% you keep, I'll give you 30 contribution points. I'll take all of that.
Lu Yang didn't haggle and nodded directly. After all, he was indebted to them, and the Spirit Nourishing Pill was still fresh in his hand.
A Spirit Nourishing Pill sells for two contribution points within the clan, but it can fetch even more in the market.
Elixirs are a luxury for cultivators.
Since Lu Yunxia was so generous, Lu Yang naturally couldn't be stingy. Even though selling these spirit grains in the market would definitely bring in more spirit stones, with Lu Yunxia's influence, contributing points to the clan would be more useful than spirit stones.
It's really hard to say who lost and who gained.
And it saves trouble too.
Lu Yunxia didn't stay long. For her, harvesting grain with magic was just a matter of casting a spell.
At this moment, the ears of grain in the spirit field were gone, leaving only stalks. Lu Yang's storage bag contained an extra bottle of spirit-nourishing pills and five bags of spirit grains.
The token also contains thirty more contribution points.
This is what he has gained in the past six months. Looking at these things, he feels a great sense of accomplishment. Moreover, the Fate-Breaking Bead has also changed, and his luck has increased by three years!
