"No problem, just quickly tell me how many contribution points are needed!" Li Mu waved his hand and urged.
"One acre of Spirit Seed for Purple Sun Reishi requires twelve thousand contribution points, and one acre for Yin Soul Fruit requires nine thousand contribution points!" the management disciple replied with relief.
Upon hearing this, Li Mu furrowed his brows; after exchanging his contributions for two acres of Spirit Seed, he didn't have enough left to exchange for other materials.
Noticing Elder Li's expression and appreciating his leniency, the management disciple kindly reminded, "Elder Li, Purple Sun Reishi and Yin Soul Fruit are the main ingredients for refining Purple Sun Pill and Chaotic Heaven Pill, which the sect has been lacking. If you are willing to cultivate these two types of Spirit Plants for the sect, you can first accept the sect's Spirit Plant tasks. To exchange these two types of Spirit Seeds, you only need to spend one twentieth of the original contribution points, and at the same time, you can receive a batch of cultivation materials for free. However, if you fail to complete the Spirit Plant task by then, the contribution points for exchanging the Spirit Seeds and receiving the materials will be deducted at the original price, along with some interest."
Li Mu's eyes lit up; he hadn't noticed such favorable measures from the sect, which was truly wonderful!
Li Mu only needed to harvest the scattered Plant Spirit Light Group after planting, without needing mature Purple Sun Reishi or Yin Soul Fruit. If he could sell them to the sect, it would be even better, as he could earn another batch of contribution points.
"Great! Help me take on these two Spirit Plant tasks. I want to plant ten acres of each. No, exchange for fifteen acres!" Li Mu looked at the management disciple with delight, indicating his decision.
"Uh! Elder Li, is this your first time planting Spirit Plants? The growth requirements for Purple Sun Reishi and Yin Soul Fruit are very stringent, with a planting duration of over a decade, and problems can easily arise. If you plant so many at once, you may have to compensate a lot of contribution points if something goes wrong midway! Wouldn't you consider planting a bit less?" the management disciple kindly reminded Li Mu.
"No need, just do as I said. If it really fails, I can afford these contribution points. Quickly help me take the tasks!" Li Mu waved his hand indifferently, indicating his confidence.
The management disciple infused his Divine Sense into the token, glanced at Li Mu's contribution records, and immediately stopped trying to persuade him.
What a guy!
A Tier Four Artifact Refining Elder, who just took on four artifact refining tasks a few days ago and completed them today, earning twenty thousand contribution points all at once.
Looking further at his task records, there are still six uncompleted artifact refining tasks hanging, each offering five thousand contribution points.
When it comes to the decade-long Spirit Plant tasks, if they fail by then, such contribution losses really mean nothing to him!
As a management disciple in the Contribution Hall, after a whole busy year, he only earns seven or eight thousand contribution points, which can't compare to someone's earnings within a few days. He was truly worrying needlessly!
The management disciple sighed silently, but professionally smiled and respectfully replied to Li Mu, "Alright, Elder Li, I will now take on the Spirit Plant tasks for you and exchange for the Spirit Seeds!"
Soon, under the disciple's operation, he helped Li Mu take on two long-term Spirit Plant tasks.
With a flash of Spirit Light from the Small Teleportation Array, two large Jade Boxes, one Profound Iron Box, and one Spiritual Artifact Bottle appeared.
"Elder Li, these two large Jade Boxes contain the Spirit Seeds for fifteen acres of Purple Sun Reishi and fifteen acres of Yin Soul Fruit, respectively. Inside the Profound Iron Box are fifty pieces of Purple Sun Jade, and this Soul Absorption Bottle contains one thousand drops of Supreme Profound Moon Dew. They are the critical spiritual objects needed for the growth of these two Spirit Plants, but they can only fulfill their growth conditions for about one year. After that, you must continue to collect these two resources for the growth of the two Spirit Plants!" the management disciple explained as he looked at Li Mu.
"The two Spirit Plant tasks have been assigned to you. In twenty-one years, you need to deliver to the sect: seventy thousand Yin Soul Fruits, and in twenty-five years: one hundred thousand Purple Sun Reishi. By then, you will receive forty-seven thousand contribution points."
"The materials have been exchanged for you! A total of fifteen thousand seven hundred fifty contribution points were used. Please count and verify!" the management disciple said, handing back the token to Li Mu with an explanation.
Li Mu accepted the token and, after checking the tasks and remaining contribution points with his Divine Sense, asked with concern, "Are there many Purple Sun Jade and Supreme Profound Moon Dew left in the sect's stock? How do I exchange for them?"
"Purple Sun Jade is a Tier Four Spirit Ore, the main spiritual object for auxiliary cultivation of the Purple Sun Heart Scripture. One piece of Purple Sun Jade requires twelve hundred contribution points, and the stock is not plentiful. Supreme Profound Moon Dew is also a Tier Four Spiritual Object, the main resource for auxiliary cultivation of the Supreme Profound Gazing Dust Scripture. One drop of Supreme Profound Moon Dew requires five hundred contribution points, and the quantity is likewise limited. These two resources are frequently exchanged as auxiliary cultivation resources by several True Inheritances. This time, you've exchanged so much, and I'm afraid the inventory will soon be depleted," the management disciple replied with a bitter smile as he looked at Li Mu.
...
Li Mu nodded, storing the items into the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl, and said to the management disciple, "I see, for the remaining contribution points, help me exchange for a copy of the Array Manual "Yin Yang Celestial Derivation Array"."
"Alright, Elder!" The management disciple looked at Li Mu curiously, infused his Divine Sense into the token, and indicated, "Exchanging for this Array requires thirty thousand contribution points. Elder, would you like to exchange for the upper section of the Array Setup?"
"Does the upper section of the Array Setup contain the Yin Yang Primordial Array map?" Li Mu asked with interest.
"Yes!" the management disciple confirmed.
"If it does, then that's fine. Help me exchange it; I'll exchange the remaining sections another day," Li Mu nodded with a smile.
The Array map and that Tier Five Cyan Profound Talisman are similar; they both need to be exchanged for all the spiritual patterns and array maps, and cannot be easily upgraded like other fragmented cultivation techniques to cleverly harvest subsequent contents. This is probably due to the insufficient connections among different Spirit Talisman Patterns and array maps.
After exchanging the materials and learning the Array Jade Scroll heritage, Li Mu used the remaining contribution points to exchange for a batch of Tier Two Demon Beast Meat before leaving the Contribution Hall in satisfaction, albeit somewhat broke.
Soon, Li Mu returned by Sword Control to Moon Pearl Peak.
Xiaojin abandoned the Red Wolf it was playing with and soared over to Li Mu with a few jumps, chirping eagerly to greet him, but its gaze was fixed on the Storage Bracelet on Li Mu's hand.
Goodness, addicted to pills now!
Looking at the slightly bulked-up Xiaojin, resembling a drooling child asking for Spirit Pills with its eyes, but not hastily urging, Li Mu was both amused and helpless.
Li Mu sheathed his sword, landed in front of Xiaojin, and casually took out a Pill Bottle from the bracelet, pouring out a Golden Vein Pill and tossing it to it.
"Chirp chirp!" Xiaojin, receiving the Golden Vein Pill, bared its teeth in thanks to Li Mu, stuffed it into its mouth, then closed its eyes contentedly despite the pain, enjoying it eagerly.
"Woof woof!" The Red Wolf arrived late, barking anxiously at Li Mu.
Li Mu didn't neglect it, tossing a Spirit Feeding Pill to the Red Wolf before starting to inspect the three hundred acres of Spirit Field.
In the lower area, one hundred eighty acres of Tier One Wind Spirit Grass, twenty acres of Cui Ling Fruit, twenty acres of Tier Two Yellow Tooth Spirit Rice: twenty acres of Tier Two Celestial Cyan Seed—these less demanding Spirit Plants were already planted.
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye, and Wind Spirit Grass had already sprouted, while the others showed no signs of growth yet.
A single acre of Cloud Mist Spirit Tea had already regained its vigor, but lacking a shroud of mist, even when grown in top-grade Spirit Field, it presented a lackluster appearance. Beside it, an acre of top-grade Spirit Field planted with hundreds of various Tier One to Three Spirit Plant seedlings displayed uneven growth, mostly showing signs of malnutrition. Without special growing environments, the Spirit Plants in this experimental field exhibited extremely slow growth.
In addition, a special tract of Spirit Field encompassing ten acres of top-grade Spirit Field was shrouded within a faint golden array, where two Tier Four Top-Grade Gold Spiritual Swords swam around within, playing like fish, greatly at ease.
These ten acres of top-grade Spirit Field were set apart by Li Mu, furnished with a Golden Essence Array to create a unique environment for planting Tier Three Golden Sword Grass, abundant with Gold Element Spirit Qi, accompanied by Sword Qi.
Yet, plans can't keep up with changes!
Originally, Li Mu planned to plant four types of less demanding Tier Three Spirit Plants, but with the early planting of Tier Four Purple Sun Reishi and Tier Four Yin Soul Fruit, the planting plan had changed.
Besides the Tier Three Celestial Vein Fruit, Li Mu intended to continue planting, but the other three Tier Three Spirit Plants were canceled, freeing up thirty acres of top-grade Spirit Field to plant Tier Four Purple Sun Reishi and Tier Four Yin Soul Fruit.
However, before planting these four Spirit Plants, Li Mu would need to expend significant effort to arrange unique growth environments for them.
