Chapter 264: Ask for Benefits, The Reward of Planting Spiritual Herbs (2)

Indeed.

In this matter that concerned the entire cultivation world of Liang Nation, the Jiang family had no choice.

“Fortunately, I’ve tried my best to fight for as many benefits for ourselves as possible.”

Jiang Chengxuan spoke again.

“Fellow Daoist Hua has already agreed to that.”

Then, Jiang Chengxuan told the three of them some details of his conversation with Hua Mengyou.

When the three of them heard this, they could not help but be surprised.

They did not expect Hua Mengyou, or rather, the Jade Water Sword Pavilion, to agree to Jiang Chengxuan’s conditions.

It seemed that the Jade Water Sword Pavilion valued Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan far more than they imagined.

Next, Jiang Chengxuan told the three of them some things they had to prepare and arrange.

After making the arrangements, Jiang Chengxuan did not stay outside any longer and quickly returned to Xuanming Peak.

Seeing that Shen Ruyan was still in seclusion, Jiang Chengxuan didn’t disturb her.

It’s not too late to tell her after she comes out of seclusion.

With this thought in mind, Jiang Chengxuan quickly returned to his cave abode.

Currently, there were still seven years before the demon beast riot.

However, Jiang Chengxuan knew seven years was just an optimistic estimation. In less than five years, the peace would be broken.

Therefore, while they could, they had to try their best to increase their strength as much as possible.

The stronger they were, the most likely they could survive it.

Jiang Chengxuan sorted out what he had to do next.

In the end, he decided to increase his cultivation first.

As for the mission given by the system, it was not too late to do it after his cultivation broke through.

At that moment, Jiang Chengxuan took out a Flying Essence Pill he had obtained from Ouyang Xuan that day.

This pill could increase the Dharmic power of late-stage Violet Palace cultivators.

Jiang Chengxuan did not hesitate and swallowed it in one gulp.

In an instant, a surging medicinal power spread in Jiang Chengxuan’s body.

Jiang Chengxuan immediately circulated the Five Elements True Technique and guided the medicinal power to flow through his body.

He could clearly feel that every time he guided the medicinal power to circulate in his body for a cycle, the total amount of Dharmic power accumulated in his body would increase.

By the time this medicinal power was completely absorbed by Jiang Chengxuan, he could clearly sense that the opportunity to break through to the eighth level of the Violet Palace had arrived.

After adjusting his mind and body to a perfect state, Jiang Chengxuan attempted to break through.

After a few months, suddenly, a cracking sound like glass breaking came from Jiang Chengxuan’s body.

An aura that was much stronger than before suddenly erupted.

The eighth level of the Violet Palace was completed!

A trace of joy flashed across Jiang Chengxuan’s face.

At this moment, he could clearly feel that his Dharmic power was more than 30% stronger than before.

At the same time, his control over himself seemed to have become smoother and more harmonious.

After consolidating his realm, Jiang Chengxuan finally placed his attention on a few missions from the system.

First was the mission to advance to high-grade Level 3 alchemist.

Jiang Chengxuan felt that this mission would not be easy to complete without a dozen years.

Next was the mission to plant spiritual herbs.

If there was no planting requirement, it would be relatively easier to complete.

If it was slow, it would take a few months. If it was fast, it would take ten days to half a month.

After all, the mission did not require the spiritual herbs he planted to mature. He only needed to successfully plant them.

Lastly, it was the mission to advance to Level 3 Array Master.

This mission would be more complicated and difficult than planting spiritual herbs.

However, compared to the mission to advance to a Level 3 high-grade alchemist, it was undoubtedly much easier.

Based on this analysis, it was obvious which mission he should choose next.

At that moment, Jiang Chengxuan walked out of the cave abode and found an area suitable for planting spiritual herbs.

Then, he took out a batch of low-grade Level 1 spiritual seeds and sprinkled them on the ground in front of him.

Then, Jiang Chengxuan formed hand seals and began to cast spiritual rains to irrigate the spiritual herbs.

If anyone saw him, an eighth level Violet Palace cultivator, planting these low-grade Level 1 spiritual seeds, their jaws would definitely drop to the ground.

Thank goodness.

There were no outsiders here.

About half a month later.

The low-grade Level 1 spiritual seeds planted by Jiang Chengxuan had all sprouted.

Furthermore, from the looks of it, it was growing quite healthily.

It made sense.

The spiritual rains cast by an eighth level Violet Palace cultivator were naturally more nourishing than that which was cast by low-level cultivators.

[Ding.]

At this moment, a system notification suddenly sounded in Jiang Chengxuan’s mind.

[Congratulations, host. You have achieved planting spiritual herbs 100 times. You have received +1 planting talent, Spiritual Root Transfer Technique, Spiritual Root Cultivation Technique, a wisp of Spiritual Cloud Purple Qi.]

He was rewarded with a total of four items in one go.

Since he activated the system, the system had never been so generous.

However, these rewards…

Jiang Chengxuan could not help but complain in his heart.

Planting talent, Spiritual Root Transfer Technique, Spiritual Root Cultivation Technique.

Just by looking at the names, one could tell what they were for.

Rewarding these things to him, could it be that the system wanted him to go on the path of a spiritual herb farmer forever?

On the other hand, the Spiritual Cloud Purple Qi was considered a relatively normal thing.

This was a treasure that could increase the grade of a spiritual root.

Moreover, the spiritual root upgraded by this treasure could unleash hidden potential.

In other words, using the Spiritual Cloud Purple Qi to upgrade the spiritual root could allow the spiritual root to have a considerable growth potential.

After using the Spiritual Cloud Purple Qi, the spiritual root that originally only had the potential to grow into Level 3 might grow into a Level 4 spiritual root, a Level 5 spiritual root, or even a Level 6 spiritual root in the future.

It was a treasure that was almost impossible to find in the entire Nine Essences Immortal Cultivation World.

After all, the spiritual root was related to the foundation of a sect or a family.

At this moment, he had already thought of the Water Apricot Tree that was still in the Level 3 water vein.

After this demon beast riot, I might be able to…

Just as this thought flashed through his mind, he suddenly sensed a familiar aura.

It was Shen Ruyan, who had just come out of her cave abode.

At this moment, when she saw the many low-grade Level 1 spiritual herbs in front of Jiang Chengxuan, a hint of confusion appeared on her beautiful face.

“Husband, what are you…?”

“Uh…

Cough, cough, cough…”

Jiang Chengxuan looked embarrassed.

He didn’t expect his Dao Companion to come out of seclusion at this moment.

“Well, Ruyan, uh…”

Just as he was about to explain, two streaks of light suddenly flashed over from the distant sky..
