As soon as Qin Ming arrived at Gathering Pavilion.
He was enthusiastically welcomed by Shopkeeper Liao to the Seventh Floor Private Room.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, please have some tea." Gu Qingzhao personally brewed tea for him and said gently and gracefully.
Qin Ming picked up the Spirit Mist Tea, took a small sip, and the fragrance of the tea permeated his heart.
"Daoist Friend Gu, I have come here this time intending to purchase some Spirit Seeds from your pavilion."
When Gu Qingzhao heard this, her Starry Eyes lit up! "I wonder what Spirit Plant Fellow Daoist Qin plans to plant this year? Our pavilion's Spirit Seeds are quite comprehensive."
Qin Ming said straightforwardly, "Second Order Low Grade Spirit Plant Five-Color Rice, and Second Order Low Grade Spirit Plant Crimson Silver Yellow Hemp."
Gu Qingzhao originally had a faint smile on her lips, but when she heard the two types of Spirit Seeds Qin Ming mentioned.
She put away her smile and was immediately stunned.
After a long while.
Gu Qingzhao finally recovered and asked uncertainly, "Fellow Daoist Qin, have you thought it over? Are you sure it's these two Second-Rank Spirit Plants?"
Qin Ming nodded noncommittally.
"Wait... Isn't Fellow Daoist Qin planting Beast Tooth Rice anymore?"
"Starting with Second-Rank Spirit Plants right away is quite risky, wouldn't it be a bit inappropriate?"
Gu Qingzhao never expected that Qin Ming, having just become a High-Grade Spirit Planter, would want to plant Second-Rank Spirit Plants.
She was very clear about how difficult these Second-Rank Spirit Plants are to plant.
Not to mention faraway places, even ordinary Second-Rank Spirit Plant Masters of the Spirit Feather Sect probably can't handle these two types of Spirit Plants.
These two types of Spirit Plants are also quite difficult to plant even among Second Order Low Grade Spirit Plants.
Qin Ming nodded and said seriously, "I have already decided."
Gu Qingzhao's expression was a bit complicated when she heard this. Although she found Qin Ming's Spirit Plant Aptitude quite amazing.
But she was still not optimistic that Qin Ming could successfully grow Second-Rank Spirit Plants.
Then Gu Qingzhao instructed someone to bring two different kinds of Spirit Seeds.
To protect the Spiritual Nature of the Spirit Seeds from being lost, the Spirit Seeds were placed in two exquisite Jade Boxes.
Qin Ming opened the Jade Box. On one side were colorful Spirit Rice, and on the other side were dark green Spirit Seed granules.
He nodded. The Spirit Seeds in front of him were almost enough to plant those five mu of Spirit Field.
Second Tier Five-Color Spirit Rice is said to greatly enhance the Magical Power Cultivation of Qi Condensation Stage Cultivators, and even has some benefit for Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators to improve their Cultivation. The yield is extremely low, and it is almost priceless.
The maturity period of this Spirit Rice is three years, and the growth conditions are extremely demanding.
As for the Second-Order Spirit Plant Crimson Silver Yellow Hemp, its Spirit Plant outer skin is the main Material for refining High-Level Talismans, and the price is quite expensive. The Attribute Leaf and mature fruit can be used as medicine for Pill Refining, making it a treasure from head to toe. The maturity period is also three years.
Although the growth conditions for Crimson Silver Yellow Hemp are not as demanding, when this Spirit Plant grows, the woody fragrance it emits easily attracts a very troublesome Spirit Insect, and even the Advanced Spirit Rain Technique is useless against it.
If not handled properly, it will cause insect infestations or even the death of the Spirit Plant.
"Daoist Friend Gu, how many Spirit Stones are these Spirit Seeds?"
Gu Qingzhao smiled faintly and said, "These Second-Stage Spirit Seeds are quite rare, and our pavilion only has these two boxes in stock. We originally planned to put them up for auction."
"Since Fellow Daoist Qin has a need, we should naturally prioritize supplying them."
"After giving Fellow Daoist Qin a 20% discount."
"The Spirit Seeds of Second-Rank Spirit Plant Five-Color Rice are priced at one thousand five hundred Spirit Stones."
"The Spirit Seeds of Second-Rank Crimson Silver Yellow Hemp are priced at two thousand Spirit Stones."
"Fellow Daoist Qin, have you thought it over carefully? If you fail to plant them, you will not only lose such a large sum of Spirit Stones, but also waste time and energy in vain."
Gu Qingzhao advised kindly.
Qin Ming smiled slightly, and swiftly took out Spirit Stones from his Storage Bag to pay her.
Gu Qingzhao took the Spirit Stones and put them away, then suddenly asked, "If Fellow Daoist Qin really grows the two types of Second-Rank Spirit Plants, would you be willing to sell some to our pavilion?"
"Perhaps, but I'm just trying it out for the first time. Daoist Friend Gu, you don't need to have too high expectations." Qin Ming took a sip of Spirit Tea and replied.
Trade concluded. Qin Ming was not in a hurry to take the Spirit Seeds to plant in the Spirit Field.
Before deciding to plant these two types of Spirit Plants, he had already consulted various Spirit Plant Books and memorized the methods and steps for planting both types of Spirit Plants, as well as the key points to note.
Before planting, the Five-Color Rice also needs to be soaked in a special Cultivation Spirit Liquid for a period of time.
And the Materials needed to prepare this Cultivation Spirit Liquid are not difficult to obtain either.
Qin Ming purchased the Materials from several Shops nearby.
Returning to Refreshing Abode.
Qin Ming prepared the Cultivation Spirit Liquid and cautiously took only a few Five-Color Rice Spirit Seeds and put them in. It was his first time preparing it, and he didn't know if it would be successful.
The result would be known in a few days.
After doing all this.
Qin Ming went out again, heading to the Southern Area of Green Sun Market.
He arrived at a Shop after many turns and twists.
Spirit Beast Pavilion.
Qin Ming stepped inside.
The main hall was very spacious and decorated in a classical style.
The business of this Shop was very prosperous. At this moment, there were already many Cultivators at the counter making reservations to purchase Spirit Beasts.
A sweet-looking young Female Cultivator greeted him very politely, her voice as clear as a bell, "Welcome to our Shop, Fellow Daoist. Do you have a Spirit Beast in mind that you wish to purchase?"
Qin Ming raised his hand and coughed lightly, then opened his mouth to ask, "I am not here to buy Spirit Beasts. I wonder if your pavilion sells horse manure from Black-Maned Dragon Palm Horses?"
As soon as he finished speaking.
The Cultivators in the main hall all turned their heads to look, and several of them revealed playful smirks.
Who comes to Spirit Beast Pavilion not to buy Spirit Beasts, but to buy horse manure? Just then.
A middle-aged Cultivator in luxurious clothing walked out from the Inner Hall. The Female Cultivator who was greeting Qin Ming saw this person and quickly called out, "Shopkeeper."
"Oh my, isn't this Fellow Daoist Qin! Please come inside quickly."
"Xiao Qin, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and brew a pot of Spirit Tea for Fellow Daoist Qin."
The Shopkeeper seemed to recognize Qin Ming and greeted him enthusiastically.
Qin Ming quickly waved his hand, "I won't drink tea. About what I just asked..."
The Shopkeeper was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "Of course we have it. Fellow Daoist Qin, we have as much as you need. For such a small matter, we won't accept Spirit Stones. Just consider it as forming a Good Connection with Fellow Daoist Qin, haha!"
"No, Business is Business. Shopkeeper, if you say that, I might as well go ask somewhere else." Qin Ming didn't want to owe the other party a favor.
The Shopkeeper smiled sheepishly, "Well then, in that case, Fellow Daoist Qin can just give a few Spirit Stones as you see fit."
Qin Ming getting the horse manure of the Black-Maned Dragon Palm Horse naturally had a great use.
Before planting the Second-Order Spirit Plant Crimson Silver Yellow Hemp, it is also necessary to prepare the Spirit Field in advance, using Plant Ash formed by burning Spirit Plant Straw, mixed with horse manure and other Spirit Materials to fertilize the Spirit Field.
To lay a solid foundation for the growth of the Spirit Plant.
At this time, the Cultivators in the hall saw him talking with the Shopkeeper, and gradually some people recognized Qin Ming.
They came forward one after another to greet Qin Ming, "Hello, Fellow Daoist Qin!"
"Hello, Fellow Daoist Qin!"
"So it's Fellow Daoist Qin, no wonder."
"Fellow Daoist Qin buying horse manure is naturally for planting Spirit Plants, that makes perfect sense, right?"
"Who was snickering just now?"
