Chapter 159 High-level Spiritual Seed
In the world of cultivating immortals, there are spiritual plants from level one to level seven, and the higher you go, the fewer types there are.
The jade slip lists all the spiritual plants currently known in the Yuanji World.
There are sixty-two types in the fourth level, thirty-seven types in the fifth level, nineteen types in the sixth level, and only five types in the seventh level.
The higher the level of the spiritual plant, the more spiritual energy it requires during its growth process.
If the spiritual field is not of a high enough grade, there will be only one result, which is that the spiritual energy will be sucked out and it will degenerate into an ordinary field.
Afterwards, the high-level spiritual plants planted will gradually wither and die due to lack of spiritual energy...
Su Qingwu was checking the contents of the jade slip while recalling relevant common sense.
In the past in the Yuehua Realm, there were no clear boundaries for the grades of spiritual fields, and it all depended on subjective judgment.
The reason is that the spiritual energy in the small world is thin, and the concentration of spiritual energy contained in the spiritual field is basically the same, with not much difference...
Now that we have come to the Yuanji world, there are clear standards.
Generally speaking, it is divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Huang.
This division is similar to that between skills and techniques, but not exactly the same.
Because each level is further divided.
If described in detail, it is the same as the quality classification of spiritual plants, with each major level divided into three levels: ordinary, excellent, and perfect.
The lowest grade of spiritual field is the ordinary yellow grade, and the highest grade of spiritual field is the perfect heaven grade.
Su Qingwu actually couldn't understand this division rule.
As far as she knew, the spiritual energy contained in each level of spiritual field was not much different, so there was no need to divide it so finely.
According to rumors, this was a rule set by a senior who had long since ascended to the immortal world.
That predecessor specialized in the study of spiritual plants and left behind many notes that have been passed down to the world. His contributions to this field are unmatched from ancient times to the present.
Therefore, although Su Qingwu could not understand such a finely divided standard, she still expressed her respect.
There are twelve levels of spiritual fields, and at the yellow level of perfect and below, only level one to level three spiritual plants can be planted.
The ground level ranges from ordinary to perfect, and can grow fourth to fifth level spiritual plants.
Xuanji is from ordinary to perfect level, and can grow sixth-level spiritual plants.
The heaven level is from ordinary to perfect, and can grow seventh-level spiritual plants.
The level of the spiritual field has a certain impact on the growth rate and maturity quality.
If judged according to the standards for the division of spiritual fields in this world, the thousand acres of spiritual fields in the Jade Purity Mirror space are of ordinary earth level, and can only grow fifth-level spiritual plants at most.
The jade slip lists in detail the growth habits of each spiritual plant.
Su Qingwu read them carefully several times, compared them many times, and finally made a choice.
Purchase six types of fourth-tier spiritual species, namely Feather Grass, Marrow Cleansing Flower, True Mysterious Fruit, Bone Spirit Wood, Heavenly Crocodile Leaf, and Purple Sun Ganoderma.
Only one type of fifth-level spiritual seed can be purchased: Crimson Cloud Grass.
Among these spiritual seeds, except Purple Sun Ganoderma which belongs to gold and Feather Grass which belongs to wind, the rest are one of the three attributes of water, wood and earth.
Su Qingwu chose these because they have a common feature: they take the shortest time to mature among their peers.
Generally speaking, the higher the grade of the spiritual plant, the longer its maturity period.
The seven types she has selected so far all have a maturity cycle of twenty years.
She has the Qiankun Bottle in her hand, and if nothing unexpected happens, her cultivation will not be slow in the future.
If the spiritual plant takes too long to mature, it will be like chicken ribs to her and will not provide any help.
There are seven types of spirit species, each with a different price.
Among them, the Crimson Cloud Grass is the most expensive, one piece costs ten medium-grade spirit stones, and it is not easy to grow.
Of course, part of the reason for this is that Su Qingwu selected seeds of the highest quality.
If you replace it with spiritual seeds of ordinary quality, the selling price will be much lower, but the survival rate will also be lower.
Su Qingwu planned to purchase 100,000 Crimson Cloud Grass spiritual seeds, which would cost a total of one million medium-grade spiritual stones.
Judging from the planting density of Crimson Cloud Grass recorded in the jade slip, one mu of spiritual field requires about two thousand seeds.
In this way, fifty acres of crimson cloud grass can be planted.
If after twenty years, there is no loss and all are harvested, according to the output described in the jade slip, even if it is sold at an ordinary quality price, after deducting the cost, the profit can be nearly 90 million medium-grade spirit stones.
Such profits can be said to be extremely high, far exceeding the other six kinds of spiritual plants.
The reason why Su Qingwu did not purchase all the Crimson Cloud Grass spiritual seeds was because he considered the risks involved to be considerable.
Before this, the spiritual plants she had come into contact with were at most level three, and they were not difficult to grow.
As a fifth-tier spiritual plant, the difficulty of growing Crimson Cloud Grass mentioned in the jade slip is one level higher than the other six species.
If one were to purchase all of the spiritual seeds on the thousand mu of spiritual farmland, it would cost 20 million medium-grade spiritual stones. If the seeds failed to grow, then nearly half of the savings would be lost......
Su Qingwu imagined this situation and found himself unable to accept it.
Spiritual stones can be used directly for cultivation, or they can be used to purchase a variety of cultivation resources. In her opinion, this kind of loss is directly linked to one's strength.
In contrast, if you invest less, even if you suffer losses, you won't feel too bad.
The remaining six types of spirit species, the Marrow Cleansing Flower, the True Mysterious Fruit, the Bone Spirit Wood and the Heavenly Chan Leaf are all worth ten mid-grade spirit stones each.
Feiyu Grass and Ziyangzhi are slightly more expensive, eight pieces for one medium-grade spirit stone.
Among the first four types, the planting density of Tianchan Leaf is the highest. One mu of spiritual field requires about 5,000 seeds, and the cost is 500 medium-grade spiritual stones.
The planting density of bone spirit wood is the smallest. About three thousand trees can be planted in one mu of spirit field, and the cost is three hundred medium-grade spirit stones.
After maturity, in terms of unit selling price, among the four types of spiritual plants, the bone spiritual wood has the highest price. If it can be successfully matured and harvested, then the profit obtained will be the greatest.
However, the difficulty of planting and the profit are always proportional, so she has no obvious preference.
After comprehensive consideration, Su Qingwu made a decision.
The remaining 950 mu of spiritual fields were evenly distributed among the six kinds of spiritual plants, with 158 mu of each kind planted.
In this way, there were two acres left, which she allocated to the crimson cloud grass.
The total cost of purchasing all the spirit seeds was 1,376,000 medium-grade spirit stones.
In addition, she also purchased some high-quality spiritual fertilizer and monster bone powder to enhance the spiritual energy of the spiritual field, which consumed 10,000 medium-grade spirit stones.
After everything was done, Su Qingwu returned to the rented cave, re-installed sound insulation and restrictions to prevent spiritual peeping, and went to the Yuqing Mirror space.
After more than half a year, the spiritual field was empty and some weeds grew visibly.
When Su Qingwu took over this space, weeds were everywhere. Although they were removed as much as possible later, some seeds were inevitably left behind.
Originally, spiritual plants were planted in the spiritual fields. The nutrients in the soil were absorbed by the spiritual plants, which suppressed the growth of weeds. The current situation was also within her expectations.
She just touched the ground with her toes, flew up quickly into the air, and performed the Resurrection Technique.
This technique can absorb the vitality of weeds and transform it into spiritual plants.
As the magic continued to be performed, all the weeds in the thousands of acres of spiritual fields withered.
At the same time, a green ball of light with a diameter of about ten feet appeared above the spiritual field.
This is the vitality of the weeds that is being absorbed.
As soon as the spiritual plants are sown, Su Qingwu will remove his magic and let the seeds fall evenly into the spiritual field.
After the weeds withered, she cast a spell through the air to pull them up as much as possible and buried them in the soil of non-spiritual fields to ferment. They could be dug out later and used as fertilizer.
After finishing this, he returned to the spiritual field and evenly spread the purchased high-quality spiritual fertilizer and monster bone powder into the field. Then he took out the seven types of spiritual plant seeds and planted them one acre at a time...
