I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 581: Chapter 380: A Hundredfold Price Difference_1

The Vermillion Fruit Tree is a spirit plant second only to the Big Tree within the Immortal Gate.

Despite only being rank-2, the one transplanted by Chen Mobai is a spiritual object that many cultivators during their Foundation Establishment stage can only dream of.

The Immortal Gate originaly had only one Vermillion Fruit Tree, planted deep within the Treasure Trove at the core of the Fire Vein, it’s a rank-5 Vermillion Fruit Tree.

The Vermillion Fruit Trees planted by Dance Tool Dao Academy on various mountains were all cultivated from this original tree.

The Fire Spirit Tree is a spirit plant that was accidentally cultivated during the study of branches from the Vermillion Fruit Tree. However, compared to how easy it is to grow a Fire Spirit Tree, the Vermillion Fruit Tree is much more delicate.

Apart from the requisite Fire Vein environment, it also needs things like earth’s energy and steam which are indispensable. Moreover, these three different types of spiritual energy need to maintain a specific proportion. Only then can the Vermillion Fruit Tree feel comfortable enough to bear flowers and fruits.

“I see.”

After listening to the explanation by the student from the Spiritual Plant Department, Chen Mobai had an enlightened look on his face.

His research in agricultural studies runs deep, and his understanding of spiritual plants is also notable.

“Old Chen, you’ll need to finish planting this Vermillion Fruit Tree as soon as possible after it is removed from the soil, so as not to affect its vitality,” said Wang Xingyu, a rank-2 Alchemist as well as a rank-2 Spirit Plant Master. Each year, he helps Chen Mobai select mature Vermillion Fruits for exchange. This time, when Chen Mobai transplanted a Vermillion Fruit tree, he had asked this good brother to help.

“Don’t worry, I have arranged for a special transportation vehicle, it will arrive tomorrow.”

Actually, if he could, Chen Mobai really wanted to personally transport this priceless Vermillion Fruit Tree to Red Sandstone City on his “Red Misty Cloud Silk”. But unfortunately, the Immortal Gate had very strict regulations on personal flights across several realms. Even if you have connections, the process takes half a month.

Luckily, the transportation vehicle Chen Mobai had ordered was delivered just a few days before, which could be used now.

“But the academy is really stingy, giving you a tree without any fruits.”

Looking at the fruitless Vermillion Fruit Tree before him, which was over three meters tall and had many branches, Wang Xingyu couldn’t help but complain.

“Having a tree to exchange is already good. Old Chen, when your Vermillion Fruit Tree is full of energy, give me a small branch in the future. I’ll try to cultivate a small one.”

A petite, fresh-faced and beautiful girl standing next to Wang Xingyu spoke. She was Gong Ranran from the Metaphysical Class’s small circle, and her major course was the Spiritual Plant Department.

Although she focuses on cultivating and planting flowers, trees, etc., Wang Xingyu is dedicated to cultivating medicinal herbs for alchemy.

Their interests were similar, so they got along well since their freshman year. However, as geniuses of the academy, they both had self-restraint.

They only confessed their feelings to each other and officially started dating after Wang Xingyu also successfully completed his Foundation Establishment. Chen Mobai learned about their relationship today when Wang Xingyu brought Gong Ranran over.

“No problem. Once the first batch of fruits from this transplanted Vermillion Fruit Tree matures, I’ll invite you over for a fruit tasting party. You can cut off a branch and take it with you then.”

Only when the Vermillion Fruit Tree is full of energy will it bear flowers and fruit.

The first fruits that become after transplantation, however, will only be rank-1 due to the new adaptation environment.

A rank-1 Vermillion Fruit takes one year to bloom, another to bear fruit and yet another to ripen, totaling a span of three years.

A rank-2 Vermillion Fruit takes three years to blossom, another three to bear fruit, and another three to ripen, requiring nearly ten years for harvest.

The fruits of the rank-5 Vermillion Fruit Tree in Dance Tool Dao Academy are considered one of the rarest treasures in their sect. Consuming it greatly benefits cultivators cultivating a Fire Attribute art, and it can even help in Nascent Soul Formation.

The present dean of Dance Tool Dao Academy, Cheng Xuan, is said to have succeeded in Nascent Soul Formation because he consumed a rank-5 Vermillion Fruit.

Many cultivators in the sect are thus willing to cultivate Vermillion Fruit Trees. Because theoretically, a well-nurtured Vermilion Fruit Tree will eventually reach rank-5 after thousands of years if given enough spiritual energy.

Although cultivators do not have a long lifespan, planting a Vermillion Fruit Tree today could potentially allow their descendants to enjoy its fruits in the future.

On the second day, Chen Mobai, Wang Xingyu, and Gong Ranran together left Crimson Mountain using the vehicle carrying the Vermillion Fruit Tree.

The transplantation of a spirit tree requires professionals. Although Chen Mobai also has some knowledge in this area, he also invited Wang Xingyu and Gong Ranran, the spirit plant masters, just to be on the safe side.

On the way, Gong Ranran used the Water Moistening Technique to make sure the Vermillion Fruit Tree stayed healthy.

“Old Chen, you do have a pretty vast place here.”

After traveling day and night for five days and finally arriving at Red Sandstone City, Wang Xingyu jumped down from the vehicle and looked at the orderly layout and towering puppet factories, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

“This factory and formation were all set up last year by Yunyang Bing and his team. These spots marked for tree planting will serve as the nodes for the formation.”

Chen Mobai pointed to the many pits dug in this vast wasteland and then pointed to the foothills at the center of the formation. The Array Plate for the “Three Suns in One Breath” formation was buried here. The Vermillion Fruit Tree would also be planted here, serving as the hub connecting the formation and the Fire Vein.

“Leave it to us.”

Filled with energy, Wang Xingyu said. He and Gong Ranran used the technique of controlling objects to move the three-meter-tall Vermillion Fruit Tree from the transportation vehicle. After triple-checking the measurements, they finally decided on the final position.

“It’s right here.”
