Chapter 88: Moonlight Spirit Rice


[Moonlight Spirit Rice Seed (Sealed)]

[Grade: Tier Four Spirit Plant]

[Attributes: Abundant Spiritual Mechanism, Gathering Spirit and Radiance]

[Status: Loss of Vitality, Spiritual Invisibility.]

[The Moonlight Spirit Rice Seed requires watering with Moonlight Spirit Dew to unlock and cultivate. The growth requirements: abundant Moonlight Spiritual Qi, can only be planted in top-grade spirit fields, matures in five years, blooms in one year, bears fruit in one year. The Moonlight Spirit Rice contains abundant spiritual mechanism, effective for enhancing cultivation and improving constitution.]

Li Mu examined the slender and seemingly ordinary spirit rice seed in his hand. Without the Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, he would never have believed this was a Tier Four spirit plant seed and, moreover, a seed of spirit rice.

Aside from the unexpected find of a Tier Four Soul Wood Spirit Seed, this was Li Mu's second discovery of a Tier Four spirit plant seed.

However, compared to the harsh planting requirements of the Soul Wood Spirit Seed, which needed Gathering Yin Land and a hundred years to mature, the growth needs and maturity time of this Tier Four Moonlight Spirit Rice Seed were much more pleasant.

The only regrettable thing is that another growth requirement for this spirit rice is that it needs to be planted in a top-grade spirit field.

This point troubled Li Mu.

A top-grade spirit field requires a Tier Two large spirit vein for spiritualization.

Such a rich high-tier spiritually powerful land is either a sect's important place or occupied by a high-tier demon beast, and an outer disciple like him is not qualified to own it.

Even the spiritual land of Little Liang Mountain, which gave birth to a middle-grade spirit field, was something he discovered by chance when he opened up wilderness and attracted a hidden spirit vein. For this, he also faced the covetous gazes of other outer disciples.

To get the qualification to plant spirit plants in a top-grade spirit field, he definitely must wait until he successfully establishes a foundation and passes the inner sect test to become an inner sect disciple.

Li Mu carefully stored the spirit plant seed in a storage compartment, occupying one compartment alone, and stored it with importance.

This spirit rice seed, along with the Tier Four - Earth Breath Black Soil obtained from the burly cultivator, and a dozen Tier One and Two spirit seeds, fill the Spirit Plant Library.

Li Mu had no clue what spirit artifacts could be refined with the Tier Four - Earth Breath Black Soil, so he temporarily stored it in the storage bag.

Li Mu took out a palm-sized White Jade Spirit Token from the storage bag, which he picked up as a great find from a red-clothed female cultivator.

This item was not only an array token but also the protective array hub of a high-tier cultivator's cave mansion. Unfortunately, it's unknown where this Huanlang Spirit Mountain is located. Otherwise, refining this Tier Four array token would grant him a free cultivation cave mansion.

Li Mu stored the array token in a storage compartment, saving it for later exploration when he has time to find this cave mansion.

Li Mu took out the spiritual objects exchanged from a white-clothed sword cultivator: a piece of black charcoal wood, two pieces of silver ore, and a jade scroll.

This was not a great find; a piece of Tier Four Thunderwood could serve as an array hub for setting up a Thunder-Attracting Array, two pieces of Tier Three Silver Star Stone mixed with a small amount of Tier Five Ruyi Stone, and a jade scroll recording the Profound Level Technique, "Reversed Element Concealing Breath Technique".

Li Mu was troubled that the Level Five 'Illusion Breathing Technique' could hardly conceal the spiritual pressure released at the Qi Refining Twelfth Layer. Thus, among the spiritual objects of several sword cultivators, he hesitated but eventually chose this inheritance jade scroll.

Li Mu held the inheritance jade scroll, injecting his divine sense, and instantly learned the Concealing Breath Technique. He then spent 19,600 free attribute points to upgrade the "Reversed Element Concealing Breath Technique" to Level 5.

Li Mu opened his eyes, awakening from the abundant cultivation experience of the "Reversed Element Concealing Breath Technique".

Following the cultivation route of the "Reversed Element Concealing Breath Technique", Li Mu silently operated the technique, reversed breath changed element, and his aura and spiritual pressure gradually condensed and altered.

The Red Wolf, eating food in the dog bowl, detected the strange aura of its master, raised its head and looked at Li Mu, whimpering a few times, seemingly asking what happened to Li Mu?

It then walked over next to Li Mu, standing upright and pawing with its forelimbs.

"I'm fine, go on with your meal!" Li Mu said with a chuckle, patting the Red Wolf's head, and then canceled the "Reversed Element Concealing Breath Technique".

Compared to the Illusion Breathing Technique's illusory concealed breath, the Reversed Element Concealing Breath Technique's reverse breath changing effect is stronger. This way, with the Exquisite Mask to change his appearance, he can reverse the breath to become another person, no longer worried about being found out.

"Woof!" The Red Wolf barked at Li Mu, complaining about his teasing, then continued eating.

Li Mu smiled faintly and continued checking the gains from this trip. Compared to the gains from the Foundation Establishment Trade Fair, the earnings from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion were more practical, with over ten thousand Middle Spirit Stones, various refining materials, a large number of Cloud Mist Spirit Tea seeds, dozens of Tier Three Thunder Stones, Thunder-Attracting Array Maps, ... Shopkeeper Wang went to great lengths to help him gather the spiritual objects he needed for refining.

"Red Wolf, watch the house well; I'll be back soon." Li Mu instructed the Red Wolf, took to the sky with Sword Control, and prepared to head to Little Liang Mountain to plant Cloud Mist Spirit Tea.

"Awooo!" The Red Wolf chased out of the stone house, howling in frustration, complaining that Li Mu was leaving again shortly after returning, and not taking it along.

Li Mu smiled slightly, flew with determination, and controlled his sword to Little Liang Mountain.

Li Mu spent twenty thousand Free Skill Points to upgrade two Spirit Plant Cultivator techniques - Drying Technique and Earth Flipping Technique - to Level 4.

Then, he continuously cast spells using the Drying Technique to turn eleven acres of spirit field Wind Spirit Grass into ash residue, then cast the Earth Flipping Technique to precisely plow the eleven acres of spirit field, fertilizing and loosening the soil for planting the Cloud Mist Spirit Tea seeds.

A magnificent scene unfolded as the soil of eleven acres of spirit fields was turned over by an invisible giant hand, eventually becoming orderly, with loose soil, clear ridges, and furrows - a top-grade tea field.

Li Mu directly took out a packet of spirit seeds, scattered them, and covered each Cloud Mist Spirit Tea seed with his Divine Sense, making them evenly sown into the spirit field.

Li Mu gently waved his hand, a strong wind suddenly whipped up, raising some fine soil, and buried the spirit tea seeds sown in the spirit field.

Li Mu performed hand seals, controlling the technique's force, and cast a wide-range Clear Wind Rain Summoning Skill.

Soon, a tiny spirit rain, enveloping eleven acres of spirit field, began to fall lightly, lasting several hundred breaths, soaking all the spirit fields.

Li Mu smiled with satisfaction, drew a Profound Iron Spirit Sword from his storage bag, and began to carve a large Dragon Illusion Array around the spirit field. This strengthened the defenses of Little Liang Mountain, while gathering misty air to create a suitable growth environment for Cloud Mist Spirit Tea.

...

As the sun set in the west, Li Mu efficiently finished the work of planting the spirit tea, stored a few barrels of Cui Ling Fruit Wine from the storage room into his storage bag, and then flew back to Cyan Dragon Valley on his sword.

Next, Li Mu settled down at Cyan Dragon Valley for a long period, focusing on tending to a hundred acres of spirit field, preparing Tier Two Profound Feathered Eagle meat, and fully practicing the Spirit Devouring Body Nourishing Technique. While satisfying his appetite, he refined essence Qi through the Whale Devouring Spirit divine techniques, nourishing his body and strengthening it.

In two days, Li Mu completely ate a whole Tier Two Profound Feathered Eagle, and the effect of physical enhancement was extremely significant.

Li Mu's body became larger, muscles subtly appeared, and his strength increased more than threefold, his movements imbued with power.

Li Mu estimated that in close combat with Tier One Demon Beasts, he should not be at a disadvantage.

Li Mu was very satisfied with the Spirit Devouring Body Nourishing Technique and invested all remaining free skill points into it, although there weren't enough free skill points left to upgrade it.

Li Mu decided that when the sixty acres of Wind Spirit Grass were harvested, he would first upgrade the Spirit Devouring Body Nourishing Technique to full level with the acquired free skill points.

After eating the whole Tier Two Profound Feathered Eagle, Li Mu found that practicing the Spirit Devouring Body Nourishing Technique not only had the effect of nourishing and strengthening the body, but also seemed to have the effect of enhancing lifespan. However, since the technique was currently only at Level Three, this effect had not yet appeared.

When the Spirit Devouring Body Nourishing Technique level reaches high, he would have to hunt high-tier demon beasts himself to meet his needs, as buying them alone would likely not suffice.

"For now, buy them first!"

Li Mu flew with his sword to Qingshui Town, having returned these days without visiting Qingshui Town where Nangong Hong and several other brothers had encountered trouble. The sect would likely send someone new to manage.

Li Mu landed in the courtyard of the sect's Spirit Plant Department.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Zhao!"

The two servant disciples guarding the Spirit Plant Department greeted in unison.

Upon hearing this, Li Mu's expression showed some helplessness. Using the body of his former self Zhao Huai Ren, the sect's disciple token remembered this name, and there was no way to change it.

Without leaving the sect, changing his appearance, and re-entering the sect under his name, his former life trajectory would follow him.

"During this delivery, there was an encounter with tribulation cultivators. Several management brothers ran into trouble. Has the sect sent new management disciples down?" Li Mu asked the two servant disciples.

"Yes, Senior Brother Ye and Senior Brother Chang have already come down!"

"Senior Brother Ye mentioned that you made great contributions, Senior Brother, you're amazing!"

The two servant disciples responded to Li Mu with flattering smiles.

"Hmm! I'll head to the Deacon Hall. You all carry on!" Li Mu smiled and nodded, having roughly guessed who was sent down.

Sure enough!

Li Mu saw Law Enforcement Disciples Ye Ming, Chang Hong, Li Changfeng, and Fu Ming at the Deacon Hall.

"Senior Brother Ye, Senior Brother Chang, aren't you disciples of the Law Enforcement Institute? Why did you come down to Qingshui Town?" Li Mu entered the courtyard and looked at a few familiar faces, curiously asking.

"We're short-handed! Not only was Qingshui Town attacked, but Qingping Town, Qingning Town, and Cyan Wood Town were also hit by tribulation cultivators. We could only be assigned to guard the towns this time." Ye Ming sighed, explaining helplessly.

"Junior Brother, why did you return only now? Aren't you staying at the Deacon Hall?" Chang Hong looked at Li Mu curiously and asked.

Upon hearing this, the others all looked at Li Mu, filled with curiosity.

"Ah! Fellow brothers, I am a Spirit Plant Cultivator, so I cultivated a batch of spirit fields and need to continuously watch over them, thus living nearby the spirit fields and not residing in the Deacon Hall." Li Mu quickly explained.

"Junior Brother, these are dangerous times, living close to the spirit fields is too risky. You should stay with us at the Deacon Hall, relying on the protective array of the Deacon Hall for some security." Ye Ming looked at Li Mu and kindly advised.

"I'd rather not; I'm used to being alone. I'm not used to living in the Deacon Hall. Besides, there are so many people in Qingshui Town and a Foundation Establishment Clan assisting in protection. Tribulation cultivators definitely won't dare to attack the town. Nothing will happen!" Li Mu smiled and declined politely.

It's just a joke; living in the Deacon Hall at Qingshui Town means being under countless eyes all the time, which Li Mu would not tolerate.

"Alright then, we won't force you!" Ye Ming nodded, suddenly remembered something, and handed Li Mu a jade scroll, introducing: "This is the sect's issued warrant. Recently, twenty disciples posing as tribulation cultivators from the Corpse Refining Sect and Profound Yin Sect have been identified. Take a look and report immediately if you find anything."

Li Mu accepted the jade scroll, injecting his divine sense to inspect it, feeling serious.
