"This time, I spent more than seven thousand spirit stones at once, which really hurt my wallet."

However, planting these spiritual herbs will not only provide me with the spiritual medicine needed to accelerate my cultivation, but also give me the opportunity to become a spiritual plant master.

For me, spending this amount of spirit stones is quite worthwhile.

In particular, if I cultivate the method of planting the wondrous lotus to perfection, I will be able to become a second-grade initial-level spiritual plant master.

At that time, I will be able to use my status as a spirit plant master to enter the spirit fields in White Snow Peak, collect spirit herbs related to Foundation Establishment Pills, and then plant them in the space bead. Once the spirit herbs have produced seeds, they can be planted in large quantities.

In this way, I will have a continuous supply of spiritual herbs related to Foundation Establishment Pills, and I will be able to refine Foundation Establishment Pills myself.

Lin Xiaofei narrowed his eyes slightly, a smile playing on his lips, as he thought to himself.

After learning about the basic matters of his sect in the Internal Affairs Pavilion, he returned to his cave dwelling with Bai Qingqing and a servant disciple.

Back in his cave, Lin Xiaofei instructed the servant disciples to till the spirit field and clean the cave, while Bai Qingqing went straight to cultivate.

Lin Xiaofei himself returned to the stone house, stepped into the spatial bead, and sat down cross-legged.

With a thought, he reached out and grabbed a book made of animal hide from his storage bag, and began to read it.

"The Complete Guide to Spiritual Plants mainly covers the cultivation methods of low-level spiritual herbs. It contains a lot of information, including methods for identifying the healthy growth status of spiritual herbs and dealing with weeds and wild insects in spiritual fields."

Wooden Sword Technique is used to kill pests on spirit plants, Light Rain Technique is used to water plants within a ten-meter radius, and Cremation Technique is used to burn useless branches and leaves of spirit plants, etc.

The process of cultivating spiritual plants requires no fewer than thirty different planting methods. Once successfully planted, the spiritual plant will grow rapidly, or its growth can be delayed.

After browsing through the complete guide to spiritual plants three times, Lin Xiaofei let out a deep breath.

He realized that cultivating spiritual plants was not a simple process.

There are more than thirty planting methods, and not everyone can learn them. Moreover, the spiritual fields must be carefully cultivated, and the spiritual plants must be carefully cared for during their growth. This process takes a long time.

At this moment, he also understood why there were so few second-grade spirit plant masters.

We cultivators mainly focus on cultivation. Many people are so busy cultivating that they don't have time to cultivate spiritual plants. Moreover, to become a spiritual plant master, one needs a certain amount of talent.

“To master these planting methods, it would indeed take a great deal of time for others.”

Fortunately, I have spiritual plants grown with my spatial beads. As long as I master the basics of these planting methods, I can use spiritual herbs to accelerate my cultivation, which won't take much time.

This time, I'll have three hundred low-grade spiritual herbs and fifty first-grade wondrous lotus spiritual herbs. Once I plant these herbs repeatedly according to the cultivation method, I can quickly master the basics.

Lin Xiaofei muttered to himself, then picked up the method for cultivating the wondrous lotus flower and began to read it.

The method of cultivating the wondrous lotus is crucial for his advancement to a second-grade initial-level spiritual plant master. Therefore, he must carefully study it and completely imprint the cultivation method in his mind.

The next morning, a tall, thin young man followed Lin Xiaofei out of the stone house and quickly approached him.

"Senior Brother Lin, I have already plowed the three acres of spirit fields as you instructed. Then, seeing that the spirit fields were too dry, I used a light rain spell to moisten them."

The young man stepped forward, bowed, and smiled at Lin Xiaofei.

The young man, named Li Sanwang, is twenty-five years old and at the peak of the second level of Qi Refining due to his mixed spiritual roots of the five elements.

When Li Sanwang was in the Internal Affairs Pavilion, he introduced himself by saying that he had three years of experience cultivating first-grade spirit fields and could also remove weeds from the spirit fields. That's why Lin Xiaofei hired him.

"Well done."

Nodding, Lin Xiaofei turned his head and looked over. He saw that the soil in the three acres of Grade One Spirit Field, a hundred meters away on the far left of the cave, was significantly softer and more suitable for planting spirit herbs.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Xiaofei asked:

Junior Brother Li, have you ever cultivated spirit herbs for a first-grade spirit plant master before?

“I have never grown spirit herbs, but I have grown spirit crystal rice for five years. Moreover, just the day before yesterday, I planted another acre of spirit crystal rice in my own small courtyard.”

Li Sanwang said respectfully.

"You've cultivated spirit crystal rice for five years?"

Muttering to himself, Lin Xiaofei thought for a moment and said, "

It seems you are very familiar with planting spirit crystal rice. Alright, I'll give you a task: plant one acre of those three acres of spirit fields with spirit crystal rice.

By the way, how often does spirit crystal rice mature?

The reason he wanted to plant spirit crystal rice was because he thought that the little girl Bai Qingqing was only at the first level of Qi Refining, and her cultivation speed was a bit slow if she relied solely on herself. He planned to have her eat spirit crystal rice so that her cultivation speed would be faster.

"Replying to Senior Brother Lin, if spirit crystal rice is grown outside, it generally takes at least six months to mature."

However, this cave dwelling is located on a third-grade spiritual vein, and the concentration of spiritual energy here is seven times that of my small courtyard. If I were to plant spirit crystal rice here, I estimate it would mature every three months.

Moreover, the yield of spirit crystal rice there is twice that of my area.

Li Sanwang quickly replied.

Lin Xiaofei nodded and slowly said:

For the other two acres of spirit fields, I plan to plant some low-level spirit herbs. Could you give me some advice?

"Senior Brother Lin, although I have never planted spiritual herbs, I have seen a first-grade spiritual plant master plant first-grade spiritual herbs."

At that time, the spirit plant master, in order to make the first-grade spirit herb mature quickly, actually ground the spirit stone into powder and scattered it on the spirit field, which shortened the time that the first-grade spirit herb should have taken to mature to one year.

This planting method not only increases the spiritual energy of the spiritual field but also shortens the growth cycle of the spiritual herbs.

Li Sanwang spoke up.

Lin Xiaofei nodded. He had already tried the method Li Sanwang mentioned inside the spatial bead. It could indeed make the spiritual herbs grow quickly, but it consumed too many spirit stones.

He doesn't have enough spirit stones to grind into powder to nourish the land right now.

"Alright, you help me plant one acre of spirit crystal rice. After that, I will give you an extra thirty low-grade spirit stones every month."

Lin Xiaofei said directly.

"A reward from Senior Brother Duolin."

Li Sanwang immediately beamed with joy.

Previously, he managed the cave dwellings for more than a dozen senior brothers. Most of them directly ordered him to do the work, which was incredibly tiring. If he took a short break, he would be scolded.

To his surprise, Senior Brother Lin not only didn't make many demands on him, but even gave him extra spirit stones.

Lin Xiaofei smiled, turned around and went back into the stone house, intending to continue studying planting methods, especially the method of planting the wondrous lotus flower, which he wanted to practice diligently.
