I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 716: Chapter 385: Sect Recruitment (Part 1)

After exiting the Contribution Hall, the millions of sect contributions accumulated by Elder Li Mu were completely exhausted. With a bounty of rewards, he returned to the Seven Profound Sect.

The Seven Gods Mountain is bathed throughout the year in the spiritual light of the Five Elements Yin Yang Spirit Gathering Array. The spiritual qi here is especially dense, and every wisp of air contains the essence of heaven and earth, with the seven main peaks towering majestically, each with its unique landscape and characteristics.

Li Mu controlled his sword and flew down to the Sect Leader’s Mansion, where a graceful figure immediately approached him.

”Lord Li, you’re back,” Xue’Er flew to Li Mu’s side, joyfully wrapping her arm around his. She wore a long white gown, her figure graceful as if an immortal had descended to the mortal world. Her delicate features appeared even more tender under the evening sun, her bright eyes gazing at Li Mu’s face filled with happiness.

”Yes, I’m back. I want to have a look at the Spirit Field!”

Li Mu nodded slightly, smiling as he responded to Xue’Er’s greeting.

Li Mu’s heart was concerned about the growth status of the high-tier spirit plants tended by his Divinity Transformation Avatar, as their growth affected his cultivation, divine sense, and lifespan. Therefore, as soon as Li Mu returned to the sect, he was eager to go and examine them.

Upon hearing this, Xue’Er obediently released her grip on Li Mu’s arm, knowing that Li Mu was most concerned about those high-tier spirit plants.

”Lord Li, let me accompany you!” Xue’Er said softly, looking at Li Mu.

Li Mu nodded, and the two walked side by side toward the Spirit Field. The afterglow of the sunset fell on them, casting long shadows, like a beautiful picture.

On the way, the two chatted about recent events and trivial matters within the sect. Xue’Er’s laughter was as clear and pleasant as the ringing of silver bells, adding a touch of vitality to the tranquil evening. Li Mu also shared some of his experiences while guarding in the Sword Tower, his interesting opponents, which Xue’Er listened to with great interest.

Soon, the two arrived beside a Spirit Field. This Spirit Field was like a dazzling jewel set among the green mountains and clear waters, gathering rich spiritual light. In the Spirit Field, two kinds of tier six spirit plants—Yanyuan Spirit Grass and Mouxing Spirit Grass—were planted over several acres, with each tender plant gently swaying in the breeze.

The Yanyuan Spirit Grass plants were entirely white and enveloped in a thin layer of spirit mist, exuding a mystical aura. Their leaves were delicate like silk, each plant appearing so tender and full of life. Under the afterglow of the sunset, these spirit grasses emitted a charming brilliance that made one irresistibly want to reach out and touch them.

The Mouxing Spirit Grass, on the other hand, presented a different appearance. The plants had a light gray color, with their branches and leaves covered in spots and blotches, appearing somewhat unsightly. However, when night fell and starlight was scattered, these spirit grasses would showcase amazing transformations. They would gradually become crystalline and translucent under the starlight, responding to the starlight, shining brightly, becoming illusory and brilliant.

This vast Spirit Field was cultivated by Li Mu with considerable effort, particularly laying out the Star Attraction Array and the Elemental Gathering Spirit Array to create a growth environment for the two high-tier spirit plants. The Star Attraction Array could attract the power of the stars to provide growth requirements for the Mouxing Spirit Grass, while the Elemental Gathering Spirit Array could gather the heaven and earth primordial spirit around, making this Spirit Field a land rich in spiritual energy. This provided for the growth needs of the Yanyuan Spirit Grass over the past decade, where both types of spirit plants flourished and grew robustly.

”You’re back! I’ll leave this to you now; I will go take care of the Green Vine Spirit Sunflower.” At this moment, the Wood Element Clone who was cultivating next to the Spirit Field looked at Li Mu and greeted him.

”Alright! You go ahead!” Li Mu nodded, watching him leave.

Li Mu’s gaze fell once more on the vibrant Spirit Field before him. Under his Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, the growth status of the two kinds of tier six spirit plants was vividly presented before his eyes.

The Yanyuan Spirit Grass matures in 100 years, next fifty years to flower, and a hundred years to bear Longevity Spirit Fruit. To obtain Longevity Spirit Fruit requires two hundred fifty years, but for Li Mu, once it reaches maturity in one hundred years, it can be harvested to absorb lifespan spirit plants, without limitation on consumption.

Generally, after consuming five Longevity Spirit Fruits, everyone develops resistance, and the life-extending effect declines significantly. Yet, there is no such worry with absorbing spirit plants; no matter the amount, completely absorbed, no concern for resistance.

Only eighty-four years left to harvest Yanyuan Spirit Grass, and Li Mu felt somewhat expectant, his spirit invigorated.

Looking again at the Mouxing Spirit Grass plants, Li Mu’s smile grew even more radiant.
