“What’s going on?”
Lu Chang’an sensed his Physical Body being drawn to the pearl, then he miraculously shrunk and flew towards it, his heart filled with shock.
This was simply too incredible.
“Is the pearl eating people?” Lu Chang’an’s mind raced with thoughts, but he vaguely felt that his life shouldn’t be in danger… right?
With a blur before his eyes, Lu Chang’an arrived in an unfamiliar space.
Even more miraculously, Lu Chang’an felt a profound connection to this strange space.
That feeling was as if… he was the master of this space!
This sense of controlling a space was both unfamiliar and wondrous.
Lu Chang’an was overjoyed; he wasn’t sure if this was a good thing, but it was definitely not a bad thing!
With a thought, Lu Chang’an suddenly disappeared.
A slight dizzy sensation came over him, and Lu Chang’an returned to the outside world, the Spirit Pearl floating before his eyes.
“Holy crap, this is amazing!”
A smile spread across Lu Chang’an’s face, his heart stirred with excitement, eager to study the mysterious space within the Spirit Pearl.
With a thought, Lu Chang’an entered the Spirit Pearl Space again.
He turned and looked around, then looked up, and as far as his eyes could see, there was an overwhelming expanse of white mist.
He looked down and saw that the ground beneath his feet was the only “land” in this white mist space.
The land beneath his feet was no more than a meter square, its edges extremely neat, as if cut out by an invisible sharp blade and embedded within the white mist.
“This white mist…” Lu Chang’an cautiously reached out to touch the white mist.
There was no tactile sensation, but it was like an invisible barrier, blocking his hand from moving forward.
“Alright.” Lu Chang’an withdrew his hand; this space was very small, and apart from the black earth beneath his feet, there was nothing else worth studying.
He reached down and pinched a bit of the black earth; it was astonishingly fine, and when he rubbed it between his fingers, it had a peculiar texture, warm and smooth like jade.
“Such dense Spiritual Qi; this black earth is not simple.”
Lu Chang’an felt an extremely, extremely, extremely dense Spiritual Qi from this black earth.
Its purity and vastness far surpassed the first-tier Spiritual Vein on Great Green Mountain, and it was even denser than the Spiritual Qi from the Low-Grade Spirit Stones he had handled.
“Is this black earth a Spirit Field for planting Immortal Plants?” Lu Chang’an guessed.
He came from an ordinary cultivation Family and didn’t have much knowledge of the cultivation world. In his understanding, only this level of high-grade Spirit Field could be like this.
“This black earth might be an Opportunity for me!”
Lu Chang’an suddenly snapped back to reality.
Before his Transmigration, he had read books for over ten years, devouring thousands of web novels, and he knew that many protagonists in novels would have various Opportunities and Golden Fingers after Transmigration, which was very similar to his current situation!
“I don’t have Immortal Plants. So what would happen if I planted ordinary Spirit Medicine seeds in this black Spirit Field?”
Lu Chang’an was excited, eager to figure out the function of the black earth. He pulled out his Storage Pouch and, with a flip of his hand, took out several common Golden Leaf Flower Spirit Medicine seeds.
These were given to him by his third uncle, Lu Huocheng, when he helped manage the Family’s Spirit Medicine garden.
Lu Chang’an picked up a Golden Leaf Flower seed with his fingertips.
He dug a small pit in the black earth, placed the Golden Leaf Flower seed at the bottom, then pushed the surrounding black earth back over it, covering and compacting it.
“Is this a waste, or…?”
Lu Chang’an licked his dry lips, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Puff!
An extremely faint sound.
Lu Chang’an’s pupils suddenly contracted!
Right where he had just buried the seed, a glimmer of crystal-clear green actually pushed through the thin layer of black earth at a visible speed!
“Instantaneous germination?”
Lu Chang’an didn’t even have time to exclaim before that speck of green began to grow wildly!
The slender stem rapidly shot up, jointing, stretching, emitting faint but continuous “crackling” sounds.
“It’s growing so fast!”
Lu Chang’an’s eyes widened.
Such growth of the Golden Leaf Flower defied natural laws, as if the entire space had been put on a thousand-fold acceleration.
Soon, the Golden Leaf Flower grew a tiny white bud, which then swelled and bloomed!
A rich medicinal fragrance, without any warning, permeated the air.
This medicinal fragrance was identical to the Golden Leaf Flowers he had seen in the Spirit Medicine garden, and even a bit richer.
“The Golden Leaf Flower, which takes ten years to bloom, has bloomed just like that?!!!”
How much time had passed? An hour?
Lu Chang’an wasn’t sure how much time had passed now, perhaps not even an hour!
“This black earth, oh no, black Spirit Earth, actually has such Heaven-Defying efficacy!! It’s even more powerful than the high-grade Spirit Field I guessed.”
Watching this scene, Lu Chang’an was incomparably shocked.
After all, he had never heard of high-grade Spirit Fields causing low-grade Spirit Medicine to grow so wildly.
Lu Chang’an quickly discovered that the Spiritual Qi in the small area of black Spirit Earth around the Golden Leaf Flower’s roots had significantly decreased compared to before the Golden Leaf Flower was planted, and even its color had faded a bit.
Clearly, forcing the Spirit Medicine to mature consumed the black Spirit Earth.
“The Golden Leaf Flower isn’t a rare Spirit Medicine; blooming is enough. Don’t consume too much of the Spirit Field’s Spiritual Power.”
Lu Chang’an quickly pulled out the Golden Leaf Flower.
Then he grabbed a handful of the “faded” Spirit Earth and brought it closer for careful observation.
“When the black Spirit Earth’s Spiritual Power is consumed, its color fades. Does that mean when the Spiritual Power is exhausted, it will turn into ordinary earth and lose its efficacy in maturing Spirit Medicine?”
Thinking of this conjecture, Lu Chang’an was startled.
“How can I replenish the Spiritual Power of the black Spirit Earth?”
Lu Chang’an pondered.
Suddenly—
He had a flash of inspiration and took out a Spirit Stone from his Storage Pouch, placing it on the black soil where the Golden Leaf Flower had just been planted.
The Spirit Stone was not absorbed.
“It doesn’t work?” Lu Chang’an put the Spirit Stone back into his Storage Pouch, frowning in thought.
“Perhaps my method of replenishing Spiritual Power is wrong!” Lu Chang’an recalled how he had been infusing Spiritual Power into the Spirit Pearl all these years.
With a thought, Lu Chang’an returned to the outside world, the Spirit Pearl floating before his eyes.
“No one will see the Spirit Pearl, right?” Lu Chang’an suddenly felt a little worried.
Before the Spirit Pearl showed its miraculous properties, he dared to hold it in his hand and play with it, but now his mindset had suddenly changed.
Lu Chang’an walked out into the courtyard and looked around; it was late at night, so of course, there was no one else.
However, he was still a little uneasy, so he went back into the house and closed all the doors and windows.
Then, Lu Chang’an infused Spiritual Power into the Spirit Pearl as usual.
After infusing for nearly an hour straight, Lu Chang’an was both expectant and anxious as he re-entered the Spirit Pearl Space.
“Haha, the Spirit Earth’s color has turned black again!”
“Thus, I can continuously utilize the black Spirit Field.”
Lu Chang’an put down his worries, his mind becoming active.
A blooming Golden Leaf Flower is only worth two Spirit Stones.
From a seed to mature and bloom, plus the Spiritual Power he infused to replenish the consumption, it only took about two or three hours.
Earning two Spirit Stones in just two or three hours?
This efficiency was too terrifying!
It also meant that as long as he had enough time, he could earn enough Spirit Stones and completely not worry about cultivation resources.
Cultivation emphasizes Wealth, Dao, Companions, and Land!
Wealth is ranked first, and since Lu Chang’an can solve the problem of Wealth, his path of cultivation will be much smoother from now on!
“The Spirit Pearl is my Opportunity to achieve the Dao!! This secret can only be known by me alone!”
Lu Chang’an made up his mind that the secret of the Spirit Pearl would not be exposed, even if he died.
After all, he only had a Qi Refining third-layer cultivation, and once he was coveted by others, he would surely die without a burial place!
