I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 608: Chapter 392 Massive Harvest_2

If it were not for the strengthening of his right hand’s fingers, muscles, bones, and skin from the treatment of a Rank-3 medicinal unguent, he might not have been able to withstand such impact.

With ample Spiritual Energy, Chen Mobai could finally meditate at ease.

“Has Master not finished his retreat yet?”

At the foot of Xiao Nanshan, Luo Yixuan, who had already returned, looked at the dense spiritual energy gathering at the top of the mountain, approximately forming a long white fog-like dragon, and somewhat helplessly asked Zhuo Ming beside her.

“Isn’t Master’s one and a half years retreat a halfway normal occurrence?”

Zhuo Ming, wearing a wide-brimmed straw hat, inspected the growth of the Spirit Rice plants in the Spirit Field. Meanwhile, she spoke in a normal tone.

“Bai Dingxian, the head of the Bai family, has been waiting in Divine Wood City for more than half a month. A few days ago, when the Sect Leader returned, he summoned me to inquire about the affairs of the White Moon Market,” Luo Yixuan said with a sigh.

The incident of the Divine Wood Sect disciple being ambushed in the Fang Market within Jian Country naturally was incumbent on the Bai family, which managed the White Moon Market.

Over the past decades, the Bai family has profited from the backing of the Divine Wood Sect. Their tea pills were in high demand in nearby countries. They even had enough financial capacity to bid on Foundation Building Pills within the Eastern Yi Territory, which aroused the envy of others.

After Chen Mobai was ambushed, many forces within the Divine Wood Sect were stirring, pondering whether to revoke the Bai family’s managerial authority over the White Moon Market.

Bai Dingxian personally ran up and down the Giant Tree Ridge. Thankfully, the Snow Needle Immortal Buds that were given to his two elders also contributed. After some effort to reconcile with those above and below him, the matter was basically settled.

In the end, Chu Zuoshu expressed that as long as Chen Mobai did not pursue the matter, it would be considered settled.

Regrettably, Bai Dingxian arrived late. Chen Mobai had already begun his retreat to refine the Rank-3 Immortal Peach Fruits. However, the former didn’t dare to leave and could only wait in Divine Wood City.

As Chen Mobai’s disciples, Zhuo Ming and Luo Yixuan had long since been taken care of by Bai Dingxian.

He didn’t want to make things difficult for them. He just asked them to inform him when Chen Mobai was out of his retreat, at which time he would promptly arrive to admit his faults.

“This type of Fire Spirit Rice matures early and doesn’t require much in terms of Spiritual Energy. It can be harvested twice in a year, and it will be ready for harvesting in a couple of days.”

Zhuo Ming, engrossed in farming, knew that Liu Wenbo had already moved half of the Spirit Rice and Spiritual Wine stored in the warehouse from previous years to the newly opened South Mountain Shop in the five major markets of Jian Country.

The emptiness of the warehouse and wine cellar gave her an unsettling feeling.

That’s why she has been busy harvesting some early maturing Spirit Rice crops in order to stock up her inventory.

“Sister Zhuo, I’ll help you harvest when the time comes…”

As the two sisters were having a conversation at the foot of the mountain, Chen Mobai, who was on top of the mountain, suddenly opened his eyes.

After the crystalline brilliance vanished from his pupils, he stood up, full of vigor.

Unexpectedly, the effect of consuming the Immortal Peach Fruit was excellent. After consecutively refining the spiritual power of four peach fruits, he broke through two ranks. His Pure Yang Scroll progressed from the Foundation Establishment third stage to the Foundation Establishment fifth stage, and now he had a total of 90 drops of Pure Yang Spiritual Power in his body.

It was just a pity that by the time he had consumed the fourth fruit, the effect of the Immortal Peach Spirit Liquid was no longer of much use to him.

If that wasn’t the case, Chen Mobai wanted to consume those three green-skinned Immortal Peaches as well.

While getting used to his increased spiritual power, he examined the content on the message talismans that flew in after he ended his retreat.

“Come up and see me!”

At the foot of the mountain, the faces of Zhuo Ming and Luo Yixuan lit up when they heard Chen Mobai’s voice transmission.

“How has the Yuan family of Black Cloud Mountain been dealt with?”

“Reporting to Master, most of the core disciples of the Yuan family have already fled the area controlled by the Divine Wood Sect. However, the sect has issued a killing order against them.”

Luo Yixuan, acting as Chen Mobai’s spokesperson within the sect, was naturally very concerned about the aftermath of the White Moon Market ambush incident. When Chen Mobai asked, she promptly answered.

“What about that Rank-3 Immortal Peach Spirit Tree?”

This was the most precious item of the Yuan family of Black Cloud Mountain. Particularly after experiencing the effect of the Immortal Peach Spirit Liquid, even Chen Mobai was somewhat tempted.

“Two mentors from the Divine Wood Sect’s Department of Spirit Plants personally went to the Black Cloud Mountain. They expressed that they have no absolute guarantee to transplant the Immortal Peach Spirit Tree to the Giant Tree Ridge. Thus, the Sect Leader’s decision is to establish the Black Cloud Mountain as a branch of the Divine Wood Sect and specifically assign disciples to guard the Immortal Peach Spirit Tree and several dozen acres of Spirit Fields associated with the Yuan family.”

This is akin to using a legitimate excuse to swallow up the property of the Yuan family.

However, transplanting a Rank-3 Spirit Tree is indeed an extremely dangerous task.

To transplant a Vermilion Fruit Tree, Chen Mobai had to exhaust all his efforts and even enlisted the help of Wang Xingyu and Gong Ranran before he could be sure of succeeding.

When transplanting Spirit Trees, one must take into consideration geological veins, water elements, spiritual energy, and even factors such as atmospheric conditions, sunlight, moonlight, and starlight.

The higher the rank of the Spirit Wood, the more difficult the transplantation process is.

For example, no second spiritual land can be found on the entire Earth Element Star that can sustain the growth of the Big Tree, which is the number one Spirit Plant in the immortal gate.

The same is true for the Rank-5 Vermilion Fruit Tree in the Dance Tool Dao Academy.

Once these spirit trees are transplanted, not only do they struggle to survive, but the grade of the spiritual energy suppressed by them originally will also drop and suffer damage, possibly even causing fluctuations in the earth’s crust, plate vibrations leading to extremely severe consequences.

However, despite not being able to transplant the Big Peach Tree over, planting some small peach trees should not be a problem.

“Ming, take these four fruit cores and plant them on the hillside to see if we can grow an Immortal Peach Forest in a few years.”

Zhuo Ming promptly took the four fruit cores that Chen Mobai handed over.

“There are also three green-skinned Immortal Peaches here. Find Sister Yan and make some Green Peach Wine with Spirit Rice.”

After turning over the things to Zhuo Ming, Chen Mobai asked Luo Yixuan, who had her eyes glued on the green-skinned immortal peach, about the situation of the Loose Repair Alliance.

Luo Yixuan, regaining her senses, instantly reported that another Foundation Establishment cultivator from the organization had already been slain by Xie Yuntian.

Now, no one within the territory of the Divine Wood Sect dares to call themselves a cultivator of the Loose Repair Alliance.

In other words, there are essentially no remaining enemies for Chen Mobai to personally take revenge on.

What a pity, his cultivation level had just improved and he had been looking forward to testing if his sword had also become sharper!

Seeing Chen Mobai’s regretful expression, Luo Yixuan finally talked about the Bai family’s situation.

She roughly said Chu Zuoshu’s opinion that a slight punishment should be enough since the Divine Wood Sect just annexed Black Cloud Mountain and, combined with the Yuan family’s shops in various markets, already posed a threat to the security of other immortal cultivation families.

If they suppressed the Bai family of Snow Peak further, then it would likely lead to disunity among the immortal cultivation families within the Four Nations Territory.

“I see, if I have time tomorrow, let’s meet this Bai Dingxian.”

Hearing those words, Luo Yixuan immediately made a trip to Divine Wood City.

“Town Guard, thanks to your amazing cultivation, White Moon Market remained intact. I don’t know how to thank you. All I can do is offer you these humble gifts. Please accept them.”

Bai Dingxian paid a visit to Xiao Nanshan and, without any pretensions, immediately gifted three items.

The first was a branch of Snow Needle Immortal Bud tea seeds. In order to avoid unsuccessful planting, he also sent ten Rank-2 tea seeds and ten Rank-1 tea seeds.

The second was a Rank-2 spiritual medicine called “Jade Tea Pill,” which was unique to the Bai family. It’s very popular among Foundation Establishment cultivators and is a rare pill that can enhance one’s Divine Sense.

Seeing the main ingredient of the pill being Snow Needle Immortal Bud, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but sigh at the wastefulness.

The third gift was an unremarkable total of ten thousand lower-grade spirit stones.

“As the Guard of Jian Country, it is my duty and responsibility to safeguard all markets within Jian Country, protect cultivation families and all loose cultivators. It would be improper for me to accept these gifts.”

If it were before, Chen Mobai would be very excited about these things. But having obtained a great harvest just a moment ago, he felt that what Bai Dingxian brought was rather plain.

“… Lord Guard, I am a straightforward person. You can just name a price, and as long as our Bai family can afford it, we will undoubtedly offer it.”

Bai Dingxian, experienced and cunning as he is, patted his chest and said something that made Chen Mobai feel a little embarrassed.

It wasn’t that he wanted to extort, it’s just that he currently lacked top-quality spirit stones and he thought that the Bai family seemed to have saved quite a few.

“I might have to leave the Eastern Wilderness for a while and travel to other territories of the Eastern Region. But I’m lacking in top-notch spirit stones. I heard the Bai family is wealthy. Could you help me exchange the spirit stones on hand for top-notch ones? We can go with market price plus twenty percent.”

Although Bai Dingxian wore a pained expression on his face, he knew that without the protection of the Divine Wood Sect, the Bai family absolutely couldn’t flourish. And the man in front of him, as long as he doesn’t die prematurely, has a promising future, possibly even reaching the Core Formation stage. So, after weighing the pros and cons, he decided to make a choice.

“May I know how many you want to exchange? I’m afraid what the Bai family has accumulated might not be enough!”
