In the corner of the Spirit Field.

Lu Xuan gathered the nearly recovered diseased spiritual plants one by one and put them into his storage bag.

There were twelve first-grade diseased spiritual plants, plus four second-grade spiritual plants that he had purchased several times that were still some way off from maturity.

Since there was no reward of white light group, and the condition of the spiritual plants themselves was severely damaged, Lu Xuan didn’t think about improving their quality, as long as they matured enough.

In his storage bag, there were also eleven stalks of first-grade Blood Jade Ginseng. Lu Xuan then took Cloud Leopard and went to Bai Cao Tang.

Inside Bai Cao Tang, a look of joy appeared on Manager He’s face when he saw Lu Xuan appear.

“Kid Lu, have any of your spiritual plants matured?”

“Some of the diseased spiritual plants I bought last time have been partially cured. The Blood Jade Ginseng that I bought from the hall half a year ago has matured about ten plants, so I came to handle it.”

“Of course, mostly, I came to see you.”

Lu Xuan laughed as he thanked for the spiritual tea handed over to him by an attendant.

“You’re faking your concern for me, the reality is, you’re eying the spirit stones in my hand, alright, come.”

Lu Xuan first took out the twelve cured diseased spiritual plants and put them on the counter.

These spiritual plants were each identified by Manager He for quality, they were basically inferior to ordinary quality, the price was slightly lower than a normal first-grade spiritual plant, Lu Xuan got nearly two hundred spirit stones in exchange.

“There are eleven more Blood Jade Ginseng.”

With a wave of Lu Xuan’s right hand, eleven Blood Jade Ginseng appeared on the counter. Each one was delicate and translucent, like blood-red jade, exuding a rich and pure spiritual energy.

“This is…”

The lean old man had been handling spiritual plants for many years and he could tell at a glance that these Blood Jade Ginseng were of extraordinary quality. He held them carefully in his hand and examined them closely.

“Superior quality, it’s indeed rare, many Spirit Plant Masters have never even cultivated Blood Jade Ginseng of this quality.”

“Good quality, not bad.”

“This is a perfect quality one?”

Manager He could not help looking at Lu Xuan, who was lazing around sipping tea on the side. He simply could not imagine that this young man in front of him, who had no regard for appearance, could cultivate a first-grade spirit plant of perfect quality.

Although Lu Xuan had previously delivered several perfect quality Spirit Firefly Grasses, the difficulty of growing a first-grade spirit plant of perfect quality is much higher.

He calmed his mind and organized and counted the Blood Jade Ginseng on the counter.

“Eleven Blood Jade Ginseng, among which six are of good quality, four are of superior quality, and one is of perfect quality.”

“For the good quality ones, 25 Spirit Stones each, for the superior ones, 27 and for the perfect one, 30. What do you think?”

“Sounds good, I’ll leave it up to you.”

Lu Xuan waved his hand, indicating that it was all up to the old man.

“All in all, that’s 288 Spirit Stones. Take them, kid.”

Manager He quickly calculated the amount and handed all the spirit stones to Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan laughingly took over the handful of spirit stones and put them into his storage bag.

Adding to the over two hundred spirit stones from the twelve, first-grade diseased spiritual plants, his fortune had increased to eight hundred spirit stones.

Among the loose cultivators, he could be considered quite wealthy.

“I never noticed before, but you’ve got such a uniquely gifted talent in cultivating spiritual plants, even being able to cultivate perfect quality first-grade spiritual plants.”

“It’s no wonder you acquired the Spirit Seed Condensing Method from the young miss a few days ago, you seem quite ambitious.”

Manager He teased.

“It’s nothing to do with ambition, I’m just a plain Spirit Plant Master who nurtures spirit plants day and night.”

Lu Xuan laughed snickeringly.

“The only thing that can be considered ambitious, is my aim to cultivate more and better spiritual plants.”

“Ah, at such a tender age, you have given up your cultivation practice, preferring not to compete or fight with others for opportunities, and have devoted yourself entirely to the path of cultivating spirit plants. I’m not sure whether to call you pure-hearted or simply stubborn.”

The thin old man sighed.

“However, with your ability to cultivate spirit plants, even with common cultivation level, you will be favored and coveted by many, becoming a delicious piece of cake in their eyes.”

The two chatted casually for a while.

“After the last time I returned to the hall with the young miss, she instructed me to consider you as a top priority if there are any good spiritual seeds or seedlings, making you equal in standing to the directly nurtured Spirit Plant Masters in the hall.”

Manager He suddenly said to Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan nodded to show his understanding. As a Spirit Plant Master collaborating with the Bai Cao Tang, his right to choose seeds was definitely less than that of the Bai Cao Tang’s Spirit Plant Masters. Good spiritual seeds and saplings would first be considered to be planted in Bai Cao Tang’s medicine garden, and only then would they be sold at a lower price to Spirit Plant Masters in a free collaboration model.

According to the old man, while his collaboration model with the Bai Cao Tang remains the same, his right to choose spiritual seeds and saplings has grown somewhat.

“Old He, do you have any good recommendations?”

“I have a few first grade spiritual seeds with superior quality, which you can choose according to your needs.”

“Apart from those, I have several saplings of a second-grade spirit plant called Copper Bone Bamboo, what do you think?”

Lu Xuan pondered for a moment, concerningly. At present he did not have a great demand for first grade spirit plants. He had more than a hundred plants of Spirit Firefly Grasses and for Blood Jade Ginseng, he wanted to try seeds propagation. Also, due to the limited area remaining in the Spirit Field, he decided to emphasis more on quality than quantity.

“I’ll trouble you then, Old He, please get me those saplings of the second-grade Copper Bone Bamboo.”

In no time, the old man brought out five small crimson bamboos which surface shimmered with a metallic glow. The joints of the bamboo protruded and were a dull gold.

“This is the second-grade Copper Bone Bamboo. It is a superior material for forging magic artifacts, especially flying swords, and when ground into powder, it can also be added into some special elixirs.”

Manager He explained.

“If you were to buy Copper Bone Bamboo saplings somewhere else, it would cost about forty to fifty spirit stones. As you have a working relationship with the hall, you can take each one for thirty-five spirit stones.”

“Okay, I’ll take all five.”

The currently wealthy Lu Xuan responded generously.

He handed over one hundred and seventy-five spirit stones to Manager He and took the five second-grade Copper Bone Bamboo saplings.

With Bai Cao Tang not far from his residence, moving them over would not significantly impact the vitality of the Copper Bone Bamboo saplings. As the third grade Vitality Bag was rather conspicuous, Lu Xuan simply put them into a cloth bag, bid farewell to the old man, and began to return home.

Wang Family.

“Father, according to the news from the new secret land, our family cultivators have already begun to make contact with the core area of the Secret Land, but the prohibitions there are far too strong and it is rather slow going.”

“Also, a very tricky Demon Envoy has appeared in the Secret Land. It can don the skin of the dead cultivators, and after disguising itself, it is indistinguishable from a regular cultivator, causing a lot of unnecessary casualties.”

The handsome young man Wang Chong’an reported to the Head of Wang Family.

“It seems that our family will not be able to monopolize the Secret Land. You should leak the news and invite other powerful families from the market to participate. Let them outsert powers to break the prohibitions on the Secret Land, and receive a share of the profits.”

“As for those Demon Envoys, aren’t those two spirit beasts raised by your fellow disciples particularly adept at locating Demon Envoys? Invite them to explore the Secret Land together, and clean up those Demon Envoys while you’re at it.”

“Yes.” Wang Chong’an respectfully responded..
