Gou Zai created a blessed land in the immortal abode

This is a shop belonging to a Qi cultivation sect.

The guard was a cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining.

Upon seeing Li Chengming walk in, he quickly went to greet him:

"Senior, do you need a magical artifact?"

Li Chengming glanced around; the shop had a fairly wide variety of magical artifacts, so he nodded slightly.

"I have two magical artifacts here. See if you'd like to take them."

After saying that, he flipped his hand, and a white light shone out, instantly revealing two magical artifacts in his hand.

They consist of a large sword and three rivets.

The shop assistant picked up the two ritual implements, examined them carefully for a while, and then revealed the price:

"Senior, these two magical artifacts are of average quality and won't fetch much money."

"The broadsword would cost twelve spirit stones, and the rivets are relatively rare... sixteen spirit stones, making a total of twenty-eight spirit stones, how about that?"

Twenty-eight spirit stones.

That's in line with expectations.

Li Chengming also knew that the two magical artifacts were of average quality, otherwise he would not have sold them.

So he nodded and asked:

Do you have any magical artifacts here that can produce their own spiritual water?

"Of course there are."

The shop assistant nodded repeatedly, then turned around and went to the other side of the counter to take out a jade box.

The box was opened, and inside lay a bowl, entirely blue, neither iron nor jade, as if it were made from the bones of some kind of demonic beast.

"Senior, this is the [Purifying Water Vessel], which has the effect of collecting water and gathering spiritual energy. Spirit plant masters can use it to irrigate their spiritual fields, and water-virtue cultivators can use it to cast water spells, thus doubling the power of their magic!"

Li Chengming took a look and said, "Not bad. What's the price?"

"Only thirty spirit stones are needed."

This book is first published on 111k.com, providing you with a reading experience without errors or disordered chapters.

Li Chengming shook his head:

"It's too expensive. I'll just use my two magical artifacts to offset the price."

"Only water-virtue cultivators can use your [purification vessel]."

"this……"

The shop assistant hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement:

"Then let's do as you say, senior."

Li Chengming put away the water basin, feeling quite satisfied.

With it, the food supply for the cloud insects is secured, and there's no need to worry about a shortage of spiritual water.

Perhaps the number of cloud bugs could be even greater.

After leaving the religious artifacts shop, Li Chengming strolled around the market for a while.

Guangling Market is indeed much more lively now, with cultivators coming and going in an endless stream, and the stalls along the street are packed full.

There were vendors selling talismans, pills, and spiritual materials. There were even many rogue cultivators squatting by the roadside, with a few ordinary-looking spiritual herbs in front of them, eagerly waiting for buyers.

Li Chengming walked around, stopping frequently, and finally settled his gaze on a small stall.

The stalls sell jewelry made of jade and wood.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Chengming walked up to the stall.

The stall owner was an ordinary-looking female cultivator, about fifteen or sixteen years old, but with only the first level of Qi Refining cultivation.

Seeing someone come to buy something, she smiled and enthusiastically introduced the product:

"Senior, the accessories here are the best in the entire market, and the prices are reasonable. Why don't you take a few and give them back to your partner?"

Li Chengming's gaze swept across the area and landed on a jade pendant carved with a landscape painting.

"What is the price?"

"A spirit stone."

Li Chengming picked up the jade pendant and discovered that it also had the effect of calming the mind and concentrating the spirit, although the effect was very weak.

"Giving it to Kong Xuan would be a good idea."

I've received many favors from people these past few days, so I really should reciprocate with a gift.

"I want it."

He took out a spirit stone from his storage bag and handed it over.

The female cultivator took the spirit stone, then picked up a small wooden box from the stall, carefully put the jade pendant inside, and handed it over with both hands: "Take care, senior."

Li Chengming took the box and turned to leave the stall.

…………

Back in the courtyard.

Kong Xuan was sitting in the courtyard, holding the book "Thirteen Chapters on the Fundamentals of Spiritual Plants" that Li Chengming had given her.

During this period, every time Li Chengming saw Kong Xuan, he would see her holding this book in her hands.

So he slowly walked over and sat down opposite Kong Xuan.

"Young Master Li," Kong Xuan said, her voice carrying a hint of coldness.

Li Chengming nodded slightly, turned his gaze to the book, and asked:

"How well do you remember?"

"Most of them have already been written down."

"Let me test you."

Li Chengming spoke casually, asking:

"Golden marrow grass is quite vigorous and prefers dry conditions to dampness. What would be the consequences if it were planted in the same garden as water lily?"

Kong Xuan lowered her eyes, pondered for a moment, and answered softly:

"The dryness of the Golden Marrow Grass will scorch the roots of the Water Spirit Flower, causing its spiritual energy to dissipate. The excessive yin energy of the Water Spirit Flower will also hinder the growth of the Golden Marrow Grass. When the two are planted together, they will mostly suffer damage to each other, and neither plant will be able to become a medicine."

Li Chengming nodded slightly: "It's fairly solid."

As he spoke, he gently pushed the wooden box in his hand in front of Kong Xuan.

Kong Xuan was startled and looked up at him:

"Young Master Li, what is this?"

"Thank you for your help and the Kong family the other day. This is just a small gift, nothing much."

Kong Xuan hesitated before opening the wooden box. Inside lay a warm, smooth jade pendant with delicate landscape patterns. It felt slightly cool to the touch, and a faint wisp of spiritual energy slowly seeped into her fingertips.

Her fingertips paused slightly, a faint blush unconsciously spreading across her cheeks, and her originally cool voice softened a bit:

"Thank you, Young Master Li."

Li Chengming coughed lightly twice and said:

"In a few days, I will teach you alchemy, starting with the Spirit Gathering Pill. You should first read your father's notes."

Li Chengming took out the refining tips for the Spirit Gathering Pill that Kong Shaowen had given him.

Now that it's been handed over to Kong Xuan, it's like returning it to its rightful owner, isn't it?

After handing the items to Kong Xuan, Li Chengming got up and went back into the house.

…………

Within the celestial abode.

Li Chengming planted the newly purchased seeds of Golden Marrow Grass and Water Spirit Flower into the two newly cultivated spiritual fields.

Then he called out:

"White Dew!"

Before long, a large swarm of cloud dew insects flew over.

One of them landed in front of Li Chengming.

"Waaaaah~"

"This water lily needs to be watered every day, while this golden marrow grass should not be watered too much; once every three days is enough."

"Waaah." Bai Lu nodded.

"Also, I brought you something good."

As he spoke, Li Chengming took out the water purification vessel.

Li Chengming activated his magic power, and a layer of blue light immediately appeared on the surface of the purification bowl. The spiritual water in the bowl began to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth on its own, and the water level slowly rose, while the concentration of spiritual energy continued to increase.

The cloud insects immediately became restless, and several of them couldn't resist swooping down to snatch the food.

Li Chengming waved his hand, and a magical barrier covered the water jar. The cloud insects crashed into the barrier, making "plop plop" sounds.

"Line up," he snapped.

So the cloud insects obediently formed a crooked line in the air.

The White Dew one drinks first, and only after it's full does the next one get a turn.

This process was repeated until all the cloud insects had eaten and drunk their fill, and less than a third of the spiritual water in the purification vessel had been consumed.

"good."

Li Chengming nodded in satisfaction; the spirit-gathering effect of this water purification vessel was better than that of the water purification bottle.

"With these two magical artifacts, we should be able to raise fifty or sixty Cloud Dew Insects."
