You Cultivate, I Farm-Chapter 111
Chapter 111
"The next one is the Monkey-Faced Orchid cultivated by Junior Brother Lu."
"A total of fifty-three plants, among them, nineteen are of ordinary quality, twenty-five of good quality, and nine of superior quality."
"Junior Brother Lu, you've truly surprised me!"
After the graceful woman finished counting, her smile grew even broader.
When Lu Xuan suggested changing the way the Monkey-Faced Orchids were cultivated, although she believed in him, there was a tinge of unease in her heart.
But today, as the results emerged, that unease completely vanished, replaced by sheer surprise.
Lu Xuan's methods indeed could enhance the quality of the Monkey-Faced Orchids!
She had managed the herbal garden for a long time and knew well the normal results of Yan Ping's cultivation of the orchids. But Lu Xuan had significantly elevated the average quality of these orchids by a notch!
Both the good and superior quality ones had notably increased in quantity.
The improvement in the quality of spirit plants also meant a slight increase in the probability of successfully refining pills and the quality of those pills.
More importantly, this was just the result of a short-term alteration in the cultivation method of the Monkey-Faced Orchids. If they were cultivated from the start following Lu Xuan's method, wouldn't it be possible to obtain a large number of good, superior, or even perfect quality spirit plants when they matured?
If that could truly happen, then she would gain considerable face in front of the Foundation-Building Master.
"Junior Brother Lu, I will surely report your method truthfully to Master Uncle."
"To improve the quality of the Monkey-Faced Orchids, achieving such a great success, Master Uncle will definitely not hesitate to reward you."
"Shall I help Junior Brother apply for a batch of Sword Seals? This way, whether it's cultivation methods, magical tools, or pills and talismans, Junior Brother can freely choose."
"Thank you so much, Senior Sister."
Using Sword Seals as a reward was something Lu Xuan desired, so he eagerly agreed.
Beside them, Yan Ping, after comparing the results, with a face alternating between pale and flushed, hesitated several times before walking up to Lu Xuan.
"Junior Brother Lu, I was too selfish before, too rigid and stuck to conventions. I lacked the courage you have. I hope Junior Brother can understand and forgive."
With the evident effectiveness of Lu Xuan's change in cultivation methods, Yan Ping couldn't disregard the facts. Persisting in his previous beliefs might mean losing the qualification to cultivate the Monkey-Faced Orchids in the future.
Regret filled Yan Ping's heart as he lowered his pride and came to apologize to Lu Xuan.
"Senior Brother Yan is being too serious. Your previous thoughts weren't entirely right or wrong. If there's anything in the future where you want to learn about new cultivation methods, feel free to come and exchange ideas with me."
Lu Xuan said with a gentle smile. Since Yan Ping had lowered his stance, Lu Xuan saw no need to take offense. As for the method, it had already spread, so one more person wouldn't make much of a difference.
"Junior Brother Lu, your magnanimity is admirable."
Yan Ping clasped his hands, genuinely speaking from his heart.
Inside the cave.
On the table in front of Lu Xuan were ninety special coins.
These coins, made of an unknown material and shaped like small swords, were extremely tough. They were the Sword Seals circulated within the Tianjian Sect.
With these small sword-like currencies, one could exchange various items within the sect.
After completing a task and heading to the General Affairs Hall to claim the rewards, Lu Xuan unexpectedly received ninety Sword Seals.
Thirty of them were the reward for cultivating the Monkey-Faced Orchids, while the remaining sixty were obtained by Yao Senior Sister's application on his behalf in front of the Foundation-Building Master, as a reward for improving the cultivation method of the orchids.
"Ordinarily, cultivating the Monkey-Faced Orchids would earn thirty Sword Seals in three months. But with that improvement method, I gained sixty Sword Seals in one go."
A hint of a smile appeared on his face as he swept the ninety coins into his storage bag with a single hand.
He went to the Spirit Field, carefully inspecting the numerous spirit plants within it.
Three months had passed, and plants of different grades had notably grown.
Out of the two hundred Firefly Grass plants planted, some had already reached the fully mature stage.
Lu Xuan scanned each one, focusing his mind. As soon as he saw the progress bar beneath the Firefly Grass fill up, he would harvest it.
In the end, he obtained twenty-eight mature Firefly Grass plants, among which eight were of good quality, fourteen were of superior quality, and six were of perfect quality.
"It's no wonder it's a sect. Due to the task of cultivating the Monkey-Faced Orchids, the care for the Firefly Grass wasn't as meticulous as before, but after maturation, the number of perfectly quality Firefly Grass plants obtained is even higher than before."
"Out of twenty-eight, six are perfect quality. This is the influence of the spiritual field and soil."
Lu Xuan once again felt that entering the sect was an incredibly correct choice.
In the spiritual soil, twenty-eight white light masses appeared, faintly flickering, attracting Lu Xuan to pick them up.
Touching each one, the light masses transformed into countless tiny specks of light, rushing into his body, triggering a thought in his mind.
Harvesting one Firefly Grass plant grants six months of cultivation advancement. *5
Harvesting one Firefly Grass plant grants nine months of cultivation advancement. *5
Ten Firefly Grass plants provided cultivation rewards. Waves of spiritual energy surged within Lu Xuan's body, madly impacting his meridians and dantian.
Standing in place, he struggled to control the surging spiritual power.
"Although I've entered the sect and the purity and concentration of spiritual power are incomparable to the market, coupled with a high-grade technique like 'The Five Elements,' it's still incomparable to the white light masses containing cultivation rewards."
Lu Xuan sighed inwardly. The twenty-plus Firefly Grass plants he harvested this time provided him with cultivation advancement equivalent to over six years, much more than his cultivation during his time in the sect.
His cultivation level at the Eighth Layer of Qi Refinement had risen significantly.
Additionally, among the remaining white light masses, seven unfolded into talismansfive first-grade talismans and two second-grade Myriad Sword Qi talismans.
There were also five first-grade Elemental Nourishment Pills, two packages of Earth Attraction Technique experience, one package of Golden Sword Technique experience, along with three drops of Grass Spirit Essence.
As the Grass Puppet had been working hard during this period, Lu Xuan poured one drop of the Grass Spirit Essence emitting rich plant spirit energy into its huge grass lump, as a token of gratitude.
The remaining one hundred seventy-odd Firefly Grass plants, although mature, Lu Xuan intended to harvest them only after they reached full maturity, so as not to affect their quality.
Inspecting the numerous spirit plants in the Spirit Field, he noticed a Clear Spirit Tea plant with a tender green
leaf that could be harvested.
Lu Xuan slowed his breath and cautiously plucked the tea leaf.
The leaf was extremely tender green, exuding a refreshing fragrance. When he placed it near his nose, it seemed as if a clear and pure energy entered his nostrils, instantly making him much more alert.
Clear Spirit Tea, a second-grade spirit plant. The leaves, when harvested, possess the effect of clearing the mind and enhancing wisdom, to some extent resisting the intrusion of evil influences.
The leaves can be directly consumed, fried into dried tea leaves for brewing, or used as materials for certain elixirs.
After harvesting the tea leaf, a white light mass appeared in its original position.
Lu Xuan lightly touched it, and the light mass turned into countless fine light specks flowing into his body.
A pill emitting a clear and pure aura appeared in his palm.
Dust-Reducing Pill, a third-grade elixir. After consumption, it can eliminate impurities within the body from cultivation, reducing the risk of cultivator deviation.
