Just like that, three months after the Spirit Valley was planted, the Spirit Valley matured, and golden Spirit Rice hung on the Spirit Valley; however, strangely, the short Spirit Valley did not bear any grains, and its color became ordinary, looking like a wild weed from afar.
Only upon closer inspection could one see that it was a Spirit Valley, and Zhou Sheng moved it to the center of the Spirit Field so that it could grow better.
The Spirit Rice from the other Spirit Valley was all stored in the mustard seed bag, and the remaining Spirit Valley plants were left alone; they would wither and dissipate into the world in a short time. Low-grade Spiritual Plants all survive in this manner, the purpose being to leave more living space for their offspring.
Advanced Spiritual Plants, on the other hand, rarely reproduce; only when facing a crisis of death will these Spiritual Plants bloom and bear fruit, and only low-grade and Middle-Rank Spirit Plants can be cultivated. Therefore, almost all Advanced Spiritual Plants in existence are unique, and their efficacy is even more so.
Heaven and Earth gave them different choices; the weak and the strong exist in the world, each having their own different paths towards the Dao.
With a bag of Spirit Rice in his pocket, Zhou Sheng felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction. He left a note on the door and prepared to take the Spirit Rice to Duo Bao Pavilion.
Area C was far from the Sect's center, and along the way, he witnessed many new things. Some Senior Brothers had four or five types of Spiritual Plants planted in their Spirit Fields, and some were helping Spiritual Plants overcome the four disasters, but almost everyone was immersed in their own world, and no one paid attention to him. Although Duo Bao Pavilion only had three characters, its splendor made Zhou Sheng's mouth drop open wide enough to fit an entire egg. The bluestone floor, carved pillars, everywhere exuded opulence, and the coming and going Disciples formed a stark contrast with Zhou Sheng's living environment.
For a moment, he didn't know where he should go, and he also forgot his original intention, excitedly wandering aimlessly inside. There were Senior Brothers selling immortal pets at stalls on the ground, and also Senior Brothers selling Spiritual Plants, as well as some things he couldn't even name. Zhou Sheng didn't proactively ask how these things were sold; he simply didn't believe he could afford these things that looked very expensive.
Perhaps he was tired from walking, and his excitement had faded, just then he saw a sign above his head that read 'Spiritual Plant Exchange,' and Zhou Sheng slowly walked in.
Inside, a young woman was sitting on a chair, holding a book in her hand, her expression sometimes relaxed, sometimes frowning deeply. Zhou Sheng circled her three times, but she didn't notice him. Zhou Sheng had no choice but to call out, "Beautiful big sister, is this the Spiritual Plant exchange point?"
The sudden voice startled Xiao Yun. Her eyes scanned around, but she didn't find the source of the sound. Zhou Sheng had no choice but to helplessly raise his small hand and wave it at her. Xiao Yun moved the book and saw that it was a child, and she burst out laughing, "Little one, what do you want to do?"
"Big sister, I want to exchange things. I have Spirit Rice here." Zhou Sheng patted his mustard seed bag, indicating that everything was inside.
"Little one, take it out and let me see ~"
Four bags of Spirit Rice appeared on the table. The bags were only palm-sized; these were specialized bags for Spirit Rice, and a full bag counted as one unit. Xiao Yun skillfully took out a notebook and began to record, "Hmm ~ average quality, four bags, can be exchanged for one bottle of Small Spirit Liquid or four low-grade spirit stones."
After recording, Xiao Yun pinched Zhou Sheng's cheek and smiled, "Little one, did you plant this?"
Zhou Sheng nodded vigorously. He had just heard Xiao Yun's words and replied, "Mm-hmm, beautiful big sister, I planted it. It's my first time planting it! I still don't know the difference between Spirit Stone and Spiritual Liquid, can you tell me?"
Xiao Yun was a bit surprised; this was her first time encountering Spirit Rice grown by such a young child. Children of this age should be full of youthful vigor, yet they were brought to the Sect to Cultivate, and she couldn't help but feel a little heartache. Plus, with him calling her 'beautiful big sister' repeatedly, she felt extremely comfortable, and her tone became even softer, "Little brother ~ you're truly amazing. Let me tell you about Spiritual Liquid first ~ It's refined from several Spiritual Plants in a Pill Furnace. Because it almost never fails, its price is cheap. Its main purpose is for Cultivation. After drinking it, it can protect your veins, allowing you to absorb more Spiritual Qi at once, but you can only drink it once a day. A small bottle of Spiritual Liquid can supply you for one Cultivation session.
As for Spirit Stone, it is a collection of Spiritual Qi and can allow us to absorb more Spiritual Qi into our bodies at once. Four low-grade spirit stones can provide for Cultivation for a period of time, but the effect is not as immediate as Spiritual Liquid. Also, Spirit Stone is used as currency for us cultivators to trade, allowing us to purchase many Materials and weapons we need."
