"Bai Qingqing, your older brother is currently busy earning contribution points to exchange for some precious spirit herb seedlings. The price for those spirit herbs is no less than 40,000 contribution points."

With your older brother's current status and abilities, it will take him quite a while to exchange for those few spiritual herbs.

If you become my disciple, based on our master-disciple relationship, I can give your older brother 40,000 contribution points. How about it?

Seeing Bai Qingqing looking at Lin Xiaofei and then at her, Huang Shuixian knew that Bai Qingqing was hesitating, so she quickly smiled and said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaofei frowned slightly. He wanted to speak up and stop her, but after thinking about it, he decided to wait and see what Bai Qingqing would do.

"I am willing to become your disciple."

Her eyes lit up, and Bai Qingqing turned to look at Lin Xiaofei, smiling as she said, "

Big brother, I can finally help you this once.

"Silly girl, thank you for your kindness."

Lin Xiaofei paused, stood up, and looked at Huang Shuixian, saying:

Senior Huang, I am naturally happy that Qingqing is willing to become your disciple. However, I hope you will use the 40,000 contribution points you mentioned on Bai Qingqing.

Since she's a cultivation genius, possessing this cultivation resource will likely accelerate her cultivation speed even further.

"Big brother!"

At this moment, the little girl Bai Qingqing, with an angry expression on her face, shouted at Lin Xiaofei.

"Qingqing, I know you want to help me, but I have already completed the task that the senior management gave me. As long as I hand it in, I will get 40,000 contribution points. So, it's better to keep your master's 40,000 contribution points for you."

Lin Xiaofei smiled and said.

"All right!"

Bai Qingqing kept a straight face and lowered her head to speak.

"Alright, don't be angry anymore. Senior Huang said you're a cultivation genius. Who knows, maybe in the future your cultivation will surpass mine. When that time comes, you can come and help me again. I definitely won't refuse, how about it?"

Lin Xiaofei patted Bai Qingqing's head, and seeing her nod, he looked at Huang Shuixian and said, "

"Senior Huang, I'm entrusting my sister to you. I hope you'll guide her in her future endeavors."

"Fellow Daoist Lin, please rest assured that I will provide her with all the resources she needs for cultivation, including the Foundation Establishment Pills she will require when she reaches the ninth level of Qi Refining."

Furthermore, since Bai Qingqing has become my disciple, we are now related as family. We can visit each other often in the future, so let's not seem distant.

Huang Shuixian spoke up.

“Senior Huang is right.”

Lin Xiaofei nodded and said.

"Haha, Huang Shuixian, you really hit the jackpot! You've actually taken in a cultivation genius."

It's a pity I'm too old to take on many apprentices; otherwise, I would definitely compete with you for a spot.

Ye Lingyun laughed heartily and turned to walk out of the pavilion.

"I have already exchanged for the seedlings of the four spiritual plants: Earth Fire Fruit, Golden Nether Flower, Blood Ginseng, and Snow Mystic Fruit."

"I might be able to find a way to cultivate the three spiritual plants—the Earth Fire Fruit, the Golden Nether Flower, and the Snow Profound Fruit—for over sixty years. However, the Blood Ginseng needs to be at least five hundred years old before it can be used as a material for refining Foundation Establishment Pills, which is a bit more difficult."

Leaving the Spirit Plant Valley, Lin Xiaofei walked along the road, lost in thought.

After completing the task assigned by Gao Changshou and submitting it, he received a generous amount of contribution points, which he then used to exchange for the spiritual plants he wanted in the Spirit Plant Valley.

Of course, because he was the head manager of the Spirit Plant Valley and had the status of a second-grade spirit plant master, the price of these spirit herbs was halved when he exchanged them. Therefore, he only spent 20,000 contribution points to exchange for these four kinds of spirit plant seedlings.

However, the only regret is that it is impossible to exchange for blood ginseng that is over 500 years old.

According to Elder Ye Lingyun, blood ginseng cultivated in the Spirit Plant Valley for over a hundred years belongs to our sect and no one is allowed to touch it without the permission of the White Snow Peak Master.

"And in a short time, I can't cultivate blood ginseng that's over a hundred years old; it seems I'll have to think of other methods."

Lin Xiaofei sighed as he thought to himself.

He still had some methods to cultivate the three spiritual plants—Earthfire Fruit, Golden Nether Flower, and Snow Mystic Fruit—into sixty-year-old spiritual plants.

He calculated that since the black soil of the space bead was transformed into a low-level spirit field, the spirit plants could grow for the equivalent of a year in just three days.

In addition, by using the Lesser Spirit Rain Technique, the Spirit Plant Technique, and his plan to sprinkle a large amount of spirit stone powder on the black soil, the growth cycle of the spirit plant can be shortened to one day, which is equivalent to three years.

In other words, by planting plants such as Earthfire Fruit, Golden Ghost Flower, and Snow Mystic Fruit on black soil, they can be given the lifespan of a 60-year-old plant in just 20 days.

Of course, during these twenty days, he will use his spiritual plant magic on the spiritual plant every day to make it grow as quickly as possible.

"However, do you expect me to go to the outside market or visit various auction houses to find blood ginseng that is over a hundred years old?"

No rush. The Loose Cultivator Alliance is a major sect with many cultivators who own their own families. It is said that there are four or five immortal cultivation families, and they cultivate blood ginseng that is over a hundred years old.

"How about I go and pay them a visit?"

Lin Xiaofei thought to himself, but he didn't have much hope.

After all, he had only joined the Loose Cultivator Alliance for a little over a month and was not familiar with the established cultivators in the sect. In addition, the Hundred-Year Blood Ginseng was an extremely precious spiritual plant, so why would anyone be willing to trade with him?

Unable to think of a solution immediately, Lin Xiaofei returned to his cave.

In the blink of an eye, fifteen days have passed.

During this period, in addition to cultivating spiritual plants, Lin Xiaofei would go to the Internal Affairs Pavilion every day to check the tasks he had posted and see if anyone knew where to find blood ginseng that was over a hundred years old.

However, no one accepted the task messages he posted.

With a sigh, he posted another mission message in the Internal Affairs Pavilion, hoping to find out about blood ginseng that was over a hundred years old with a large reward.

Of course, during this time, he also went to the Spirit Plant Valley to cultivate some spirit plants and earn contribution points, which he then exchanged for more than 10,000 low-grade spirit stones. He then ground the spirit stones into powder and sprinkled them on the black soil of the space bead.

Today, the several precious medicinal herbs he cultivates have all reached the age of forty years.

After issuing the mission, Lin Xiaofei headed towards the cave.

When Lin Xiaofei arrived at the entrance of the cave, a young man's voice suddenly came from not far behind him.

"Senior Brother Lin, don't enter the cave yet, I need to talk to you."

Lin Xiaofei stopped, turned around, and glanced at the other person. Seeing that the other person was dressed in the robes of an Inner Affairs Pavilion disciple, he raised an eyebrow and thought to himself:

"A disciple from the Imperial Household Department came to see me. Could it be that someone accepted my mission and discovered a blood ginseng that's over a hundred years old?"
