Plants vs. Cultivation

"Of course!"

Fang Jiaoyan nodded. She would have explained the situation clearly even if Gu Mo didn't say it. After all, this matter concerned the survival of her family, and she dared not be careless.

As Fang Jiaoyan told the story, Gu Mo understood the origin of the other party's three conditions.

Fang Jiaoyan's family moved to Yuntian Xiancheng a hundred years ago, and then spent all their belongings to buy a 2nd-level top-grade spiritual field within the scope of the fairy city. With this 2nd-level top-grade spiritual field as the core, they settled down.

With the output of the 2nd-level top-grade spiritual field, her family also cultivated a foundation-building great perfection cultivator, who is Fang Jiaoyan's Taoist partner.

And Fang Jiaoyan's Taoist partner is indeed very talented. Not only has his cultivation reached the great perfection of foundation building, but he has also become a spiritual plant master and successfully planted a 2nd-level spiritual plant, sword bamboo.

Sword bamboo, this is a spiritual plant that naturally contains sword energy and is an excellent material for making sword talismans.

With the sword bamboo, Fang Jiaoyan's family was successfully selected as a supplier of Yuntian Xiancheng. The daily trading volume of Yuntian Xiancheng is extremely amazing, and the premise for maintaining this amazing trading volume is to have sufficient supply, which comes partly from the monks who gather here.

But more of it comes from the shops belonging to Yuntian Xiancheng. In order to keep the shops supplied continuously, Yuntian Xiancheng will look for suppliers within its sphere of influence.

Let those suppliers provide various spiritual materials, and Yuntian Xiancheng will purchase them at a relatively reasonable price.

However, it is not so easy to become a supplier of Yuntian Xiancheng. Only some valuable spiritual materials will be selected. If it is an ordinary spiritual material, Yuntian Xiancheng will not accept it.

The sword bamboo cultivated by Fang Jiaoyan's family is a relatively rare spiritual material, which is why it has successfully become a supplier of Yuntian Xiancheng. Becoming a supplier of Yuntian Xiancheng is equivalent to having a talisman within the sphere of influence of the fairy city.

No one will touch the suppliers of Yuntian Xiancheng. Although Yuntian Xiancheng did not directly say that it would protect those suppliers, attacking suppliers and causing them to be unable to deliver on time will affect the business of Yuntian Xiancheng, and business is the core interest of Yuntian Xiancheng.

Whoever destroys the business of Yuntian Xiancheng will have serious consequences.

However, the accident of not being able to deliver on time is not only caused by external attacks, but also by some internal reasons. For example, Fang Jiaoyan's Taoist partner chose to impact the Jindan realm not long ago, but ultimately failed and died.

His death is a huge blow to the entire family. At the same time, the sword bamboo will not be delivered on time, because the entire family has only this one spiritual plant master.

If the delivery is not delivered on time, then the qualification to become a supplier of Yuntian Xiancheng will be lost.

At the moment when the strongest foundation-building great perfection cultivator in the family is impacting the Jindan and dies, it will be extremely dangerous to lose the qualification to be a supplier. There will definitely be many people who are eyeing a piece of 2nd-level top-grade spiritual field.

Therefore, Fang Jiaoyan set three conditions to find a spiritual plant master who can cultivate sword bamboo. As long as they can deliver on time, they can keep the qualification of suppliers. With this qualification, no one dares to attack them.

"So that's it!"

Gu Mo nodded. This situation was much better than he had imagined. He thought that the other party had offended some powerful enemy, so he was so anxious. It turned out that he just wanted to keep the qualification of Yuntian Xiancheng supplier.

Since the other party did not provoke any powerful enemy, Gu Mo also signed a lease agreement for the spiritual field with the other party, but the term of the agreement was not agreed in detail.

If Gu Mo can get a level 3 spiritual field in the future, he will stop renting, so he does not want to agree on a specific lease term. Fang Jiaoyan also does not want to fix the lease term, because after the family cultivates a new spiritual plant master, the spiritual field will naturally be handed over to the family's own people to take care of.

"Hu Daoyou, let's go to my family's residence to see the spiritual field now." The agreement was reached, and Fang Jiaoyan immediately invited Gu Mo to go.

"Okay!"

Gu Mo nodded. He will move in there in the next few days.

Fang Jiaoyan's family is about thousands of miles away from the south city of Yuntian Xiancheng. This is still in the hinterland of Yuntian Xiancheng. The area covered by Yuntian Xiancheng is said to be tens of thousands of miles away.

Everything within tens of thousands of miles belongs to Yuntian Xiancheng. However, over the years, Yuntian Xiancheng has rented or sold some of the spiritual veins and spiritual fields here to many immortal families or small sects.

These immortal families and small sects rely on Yuntian Xiancheng for survival, grow some spiritual plants, make some talismans, pills, magic tools and so on to sell in Xiancheng to support their families. At the same time, they also contribute to the prosperity of Yuntian Xiancheng.

If you are lucky, you can get some rare spiritual plants, or rare pills, talismans and so on, and you will have the hope of becoming a supplier of Xiancheng, which means you have made a name for yourself.

"Hu Daoyou, this is my family's residence." Fang Jiaoyan pointed to a hill in front of her. The top of the hill was leveled, and a spiritual field of about 2 mu was reclaimed on it. This should be the location of the second-grade superb spiritual field.

On the mountainside, there are also many scattered small spiritual fields. These are some spiritual vein branches derived from the second-level superb spiritual fields. These spiritual vein branches have also been used to cultivate small spiritual fields. If these scattered spiritual fields are used well, they can also produce a lot.

These scattered small spiritual fields are not within the scope of the contract, so they do not belong to Gu Mo. Of course, Gu Mo also looks down on these scattered small spiritual fields.

At the foot of the mountain, there is a large building complex. This is the residence of Fang Jiaoyan's family. From the scale of the building, it can be seen that there are many people in this family. Considering that this is a family that has been passed down for more than a hundred years, and has been protected by Yuntian Fairy City for a hundred years, no disasters have occurred, so it is normal that there are many people.

"Hu Daoyou, this is the token for entering and exiting the formation. With this token, you can enter and exit at will." Fang Jiaoyan took out a jade talisman. This jade talisman only has the effect of entering and exiting the formation. The real control jade talisman will naturally not be given to outsiders.

Taking the jade talisman, Gu Mo and Fang Jiaoyan passed through the formation and landed directly on the mountaintop spiritual field.

During this period, Fang Jiaoyan did not intend to let Gu Mo meet her family members, and Gu Mo did not have this idea. The two parties were just a rental relationship, and each party just had to complete the contents agreed in the contract.

After carefully sensing the spiritual energy in the spiritual field, it was indeed a second-grade top-grade spiritual field. Some bright silver bamboos were also planted in the spiritual field. When the breeze blew, those bamboos made a sound of swords. This is the sword bamboo.

However, these sword bamboos do not look good at the moment. They should have not been taken care of by the spiritual plant master for a long time. If they continue like this, these sword bamboos will not wither and die, but the quality will inevitably decline.

Gu Mo stepped forward and used plant perception. He soon saw the details of the sword bamboo in front of him. How to say it, the cultivation of this sword bamboo is very ordinary.

In addition to the normal spiritual field and spiritual rain, the cultivation of sword bamboo also needs to be sharpened with the small Gengjin sword energy, so that the sword bamboo can grow better.

And these sword bamboos in front of them do not seem to be sharpened with the small Gengjin sword energy, but rely entirely on the spiritual power of the 2nd-level top-grade spiritual field.

The 2nd-level inferior sword bamboo is planted in the 2nd-level top-grade spiritual field. What else can this not be?

"How did you cultivate this sword bamboo?" Gu Mo asked Fang Jiaoyan beside him.

"This..."

Faced with Gu Mo's inquiry, Fang Jiaoyan hesitated. How to cultivate spiritual plants is the secret of every spiritual plant master. However, thinking that her Taoist partner is dead, these secrets are no longer secrets. Fang Jiaoyan immediately told him how to cultivate sword bamboo.

"The spiritual plant master inheritance you got is incomplete, right?" After listening to Fang Jiaoyan's story, Gu Mo couldn't help shaking his head. He understood how important a good spiritual plant master inheritance is. The other party didn't even know that the sword bamboo needed to be sharpened with the sword energy of the small Gengjin.

And this knowledge is just a very casual passage in the book that Qi Chunde gave to Gu Mo. This short line of words is the secret book that many casual spiritual plant masters are struggling to pursue.

From this, we can also see how powerful the spiritual plant master inheritance of Shennong Valley is.

"Yes, that spiritual plant master inheritance was obtained by my husband in the Xiancheng trading market." Fang Jiaoyan blushed slightly. She thought that the other party wanted to find out the secret of their cultivation of sword bamboo. Now it seems that this fellow Hu Dao in front of him did not take their spiritual plant master inheritance seriously at all.

A perfect version can be found in the 16-9 book forum!

Although the spiritual plant master is not as respected as the elixir, instrument, array, and talisman in the hundred arts of cultivating immortals, the inheritance of the spiritual plant master is not so easy to obtain. It is very lucky to get a fragmentary inheritance in the trading market.

But at this moment, Gu Mo showed his disdain for their sword bamboo cultivation method, which made Fang Jiaoyan realize that the other party was a spiritual plant master who mastered the complete spiritual plant master inheritance, not a half-baked one like her Taoist partner.

"I will take care of these sword bamboos, and then I will set up some concealing and defensive arrays here." Gu Mo said. He didn't want people to know about the plants he planted, so he would set up the old three here, the illusion array, the nut array, and the breath-covering array.

"Then I won't bother you, fellow Daoist Hu." Fang Jiaoyan bowed slightly and left. She didn't care about Gu Mo's arrangement of the array. It was normal for a spiritual plant master to protect his secrets from being peeped by outsiders.

"Let's get to work."

After Fang Jiaoyan left, Gu Mo took out the array plate and began to arrange it. The illusion array and the breath-covering array were the same as before, but the nut array has now become a 2nd-grade top-quality nut as the core, and the other 2nd-grade nuts are auxiliary.

The nut array with 2nd-grade top-quality nuts as the core should be able to block the attack of the fake elixir cultivator. If all the nuts are replaced with 2nd-grade top-quality nuts, the golden elixir cultivator is estimated to be able to block it.

The array covers all 2 acres of spiritual fields, but Gu Mo can only use 1 acre of 2nd-grade top-quality spiritual fields. The other acre needs to be planted with sword bamboo. Of course, the contract also clearly states that the area of ​​2nd-grade top-quality spiritual fields rented by the other party is 1 acre.

However, with Gu Mo's ability, he can squeeze out another half acre of land without affecting the output of sword bamboo, so that Gu Mo can actually use 1.5 acres of spiritual fields.

Although 1.5 acres is still a bit small, it is barely enough as a temporary transition. If it is not possible to plant on a large scale, then Gu Mo will take the boutique route, focusing on improving the level of plants rather than the quantity.

While Gu Mo was busy, there was some noise in the family residence at the foot of the mountain.

Other family members were opposed to Fang Jiaoyan renting out the important 2nd-grade superb spiritual field to outsiders, because they wanted another option.

That is to let Fang Jiaoyan remarry. Fang Jiaoyan's beauty is also well known in this area. There are many people who covet her beauty. After her Taoist partner died, many important figures in the family immediately expressed their desire to marry Fang Jiaoyan.

And the other party will pay a betrothal gift that is enough for the entire family to get through this difficult time.

Compared to renting out the important spiritual fields of the family to outsiders, other clan members are more inclined to let Fang Jiaoyan remarry. In this way, not only will the important spiritual fields of the family not need to be rented out to outsiders, but Fang Jiaoyan will not be able to control family affairs by relying on the status of the clan leader's Taoist companion.

Although she is the clan leader's Taoist companion, she is still a person of an outsider. How can the family affairs be controlled by an outsider? It should be inherited by other direct descendants of the family.

It is inevitable that a family of immortal cultivation that has been passed down for hundreds of years has many factions. Each party has its own interests and demands. They want to unite as one, unless they encounter a matter of life and death.

"Why does the family have such short-sighted people like you? If the spiritual fields are not rented out, who will cultivate the sword bamboo? Who will supply the fairy city? Once we lose the status of the fairy city supplier, then what will be the consequences? Do you know?" Fang Jiaoyan listened to the arguments of the crowd and felt tired.

After speaking, Fang Jiaoyan glanced at a gray-haired clan elder, who was in the late stage of foundation building and was the most cheerful one. Because once Fang Jiaoyan remarries, the position of the clan leader will definitely be his.

"Haha, as long as you remarry the Xu family, even if we form an alliance, no one in this area can threaten us with the combined efforts of the two families." The clan elder sneered.

"Lu Rong, are you a fool?" Hearing this, Fang Jiaoyan couldn't help but laugh in anger. The safety of the family actually had to rely on others. At that time, the one they had to be most careful of was not others, but the Xu family.

"You!"

Being pointed at and scolded, Lu Rong was furious, but he finally endured it. In the world of cultivation, strength is respected, even in the family. Although Lu Rong is in the late stage of foundation building, he is old, and he is no match for Fang Jiaoyan in the middle stage of foundation building.

After all, as the wife of the clan leader, she has received many treasures from the family.

It is precisely because of this that Lu Rong wants Fang Jiaoyan to remarry and leave. In this way, he can not only take the position of the patriarch, but also get the resources of the family. If he makes this happen, the Xu family will also give him an extra longevity pill. Longevity pills are very attractive to cultivators whose lifespans are approaching the end.

For this reason, even if he sacrifices some family interests a little, it is acceptable. As long as Lu Rong can extend his life for a few years, he will have the hope of reaching the great perfection of foundation building. Once his cultivation breaks through, he can live freely for another hundred years. If he is lucky, he may even have the hope of reaching the golden elixir.

And the premise of all this is to get that longevity pill.
