Distribution of Spirit Plants on Lingyun Mountain
Lingyun Mountain is a hundred feet high and is the original Clan Mountain of the Ling Clan.
Because Ling Yunhong, the Clan Head of the Ling Clan clan, was a powerful warrior, he occupied Lingxiao Mountain, a Second Rank Low Grade spiritual mountain, when he conquered Huai River County. The entire Ling Clan Lineage then moved from that mountain to Lingxiao Mountain in Huai River County to settle down.
And so, Lingyun Mountain, the original Clan Mountain, became a spiritual mountain solely for cultivating Spirit Plant.
More than two hundred years ago, the Spirit Vein in this mountain were only of the First Rank Low Grade. However, after the Ling Clan accumulated Spirit Stone for more than two hundred years, they upgraded the Spirit Vein in the mountain to the First-Tier Superior-Grade more than a hundred years ago.
After more than a hundred years of Spiritual Qi accumulation, the First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Vein beneath Lingyun Mountain has already reached its current peak. It is just one step away from becoming Second Rank Low Grade Spirit Vein.
However, because the Ling Clan lacked Spirit Stone and the strength to protect a Second Rank Spirit Vein, they abandoned the plan to upgrade the Spirit Vein in Lingyun Mountain to the second tier.
Upgrading a First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Vein to Second Rank Spirit Vein using Spirit Stone would cost at least tens of thousands of Spirit Stone.
As for the Ling Clan, although they now possess Spirit Stone, the Ling Clan, with its small number of members, already has enough with Lingxiao Mountain, a Second Rank Low Grade spiritual mountain rich in Spiritual Qi. Therefore, they have slowed down the matter of upgrading the Spirit Vein in this area.
After leaving Cloudwater Market Town, Ling Pengyun, accompanied by Imperial Green Travel Leaf for two days, finally arrived at the Lingyun Mountain Fallen Cloud County Cloudwater County.
Ling Pengyun looked up at the Yuanzu Clan Mountain where he had lived as a child, his expression lost in memories.
After a few moments of stunned silence, he came to his senses, cast a "Sound Amplification Technique" on himself, and shouted into the mountains.
"My great-great-grandfather, I am Ling Pengyun, and I would like to pay my respects."
Lingyun Mountain is a hundred feet high. Even if Ling Rucong, used his Divine Sense, he would have difficulty detecting Ling Pengyun who was coming from the foot of the mountain.
Of course, if Ling Pengyun were to step into this mountain and trigger the Mountain Protection Formation set up here, Ling Rucong in the mountain would know, but this would prevent some unnecessary situations from occurring.
At the Lingyun Mountain, Ling Spirit Field, who was casting a cloud and Spirit Rain Cloud Rain Technique in a large Ling Rucong of Spirit Field to irrigate them, heard the shouts from outside the mountain. His expression hardened slightly, and he used Aura Observation Technique to look down at the source of the sound.
Upon seeing that the person calling out was Ling Pengyun, he looked slightly surprised.
"Huh? How did Peng Yun end up here all the way from Huai River County?"
To avoid keeping Ling Pengyun waiting at the foot of the mountain, Ling Rucong immediately withdrew the large cloud formations created by the Sky Cloud Rain Technique, cast a Light Body Technique on himself, and quickly rushed down the mountain.
A short while later, Ling Rucong descended the mountain and met Ling Pengyun.
"Great-great-grandfather," Ling Pengyun greeted the senior before him with a bow.
Ling Rucong is Ling Clan eighth son of the "Ru" generation among the four generations of the Ling family, namely "Ru", "Yun", "Xiao", and "Peng". Although he was born into a mortal family, he was only a cultivator with Four Spirit Roots and had no elders to support him. However, because he had some talent in Spirit Plant, he was valued in the Ling Clan, Aristocratic Clan in Spirit Plant, and the Lineage provided him with a lot of Cultivation Resources.
With the help of his Lineage, he broke through to the Qi Training Seventh Layer more than ten years ago.
He has also achieved some success in the field of Spirit Plant, and is one of the four First Rank Middle Grade Spirit Planter of the Ling Clan.
"Peng Yun, what brings you here?" Ling Rucong asked with a puzzled look.
"My Eleventh Great Grandfather sent me here to take over from you." After saying this simply, Ling Pengyun took out a letter from the Great Elder Ling Ruda, which he had given him when he left the Storage Bag Clan Mountain, and handed it to Ling Rucong.
The letter mainly contained Ling Ruda's advice to Ling Rucong Clan Mountain. At the end, it also mentioned that Ling Pengyun's Spirit Plant cultivation had reached the First Rank Middle Grade and that he had come to take over Lingyun Mountain's garrison.
After reading the letter, Ling Rucong's doubts were answered.
He looked at Ling Pengyun with a happy expression and said with a smile.
"I didn't expect you to break through to the First Rank Middle Grade of Spirit Plant so quickly. Eleventh brother was right about you."
"Great-great-grandfather, you flatter me," Ling Pengyun said.
Ling Rucong smiled and said, "Now that you are a First Rank Middle Grade Spirit Planter, I feel at ease entrusting the Spirit Plant in this spirit mountain to you. I am indeed getting old, and it is time for me to return to our Ling Clan's new Clan Mountain to retire."
"My eleventh brother mentioned in his letter that you need to go to the Hundred Spirits Sect on the second of next month to attend the Wedding Feast between the Yang Clan and Hundred Spirits Sect. So I will stay here for a few more days. After you attend the Wedding Feast, I will return to the Clan Mountain. During this time, I can also introduce you to some of the Spirit Plant that are currently being cultivated in Lingyun Mountain."
"Come with me up the mountain."
Ling Rucong gave a greeting and led Ling Pengyun up Lingyun Mountain. On the way, he first gave Ling Pengyun a brief introduction to the number of Spirit Field in the two areas on the mountainside and the mountaintop of Lingyun Mountain.
Before the Ling Clan moved away from this mountain, there were only five acres of low-grade First Rank Low Grade Spirit Field Spirit Field halfway up the mountain.
The High-Grade Spirit Field at the mountaintop consist of only five acres of First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Field and one acre of Second Rank Low Grade Spirit Field.
However, when the Ling Clan clan moved away, no one absorbed the rich Spiritual Qi in the mountains.
To avoid wasting the Spiritual Qi in the mountain, Ling Ruda, the Great Elder of Lineage Lineage, led a group of Spirit Planter to use the remaining Spiritual Qi in the mountain and the Soil Nurturing Technique to cultivate an additional five acres of First Rank Low Grade Spirit Field in the Spirit Field area halfway up the mountain.
They also cultivated an additional five acres of First Rank Middle Grade Spirit Field Spirit Field the mountaintop, bringing the total number of Spirit Field on the mountaintop to eleven acres.
There are a total of 21 acres of Spirit Field in the entire Lingyun Mountain.
Before long, Ling Rucong led Ling Pengyun up to the ten acres of Spirit Field halfway up the mountain.
At this time, the Spirit Field were planted with three-foot-tall, arm-thick Azure Spirit Bamboo.
Ling Rucong pointed to a bamboo grove on the ten acres of Spirit Field in front of him and introduced it.
"Peng Yun, each of these ten acres of Spirit Field Spirit Field has fifty Azure Spirit Bamboo planted on it. In total, there are five hundred First Rank Low Grade Azure Spirit Bamboo planted on the ten acres. The five acres on the right with the richer Azure Spirit Bamboo Spiritual Qi planted by the Lineage before they moved away from this mountain, and they have been planted here for decades. The five acres on the left with the weaker Azure Spirit Bamboo Spiritual Qi were planted eight years ago."
"Because the ten acres of Spirit Field fields here are all of the First Rank Low Grade, the Spiritual Qi they contain is limited, and they have always been unable to break through the grade. They can only grow their bodies by relying on the spiritual Spiritual Qi in the Spirit Field."
"Every year, these Azure Spirit Bamboo can grow a bamboo stalk about one foot long. At the end of each year, all you need to do is cut off a foot of these taller Azure Spirit Bamboo. Just make sure their trunks are still three feet tall and that their roots are not damaged."
"Because of the large number of Azure Spirit Bamboo, many flying insects from outside the mountains are usually attracted to this bamboo forest and eat the Azure Spirit Bamboo leaves and stalks. However, you don't need to worry. The Lineage has trained fifty innate-stage pigeons in the mountains to guard the Spirit Plant Spirit Plant and prevent them from being harmed by flying insects."
"In addition, it is best to water these ten acres of Azure Spirit Bamboo with Spirit Rain every day. This will promote the growth of this Azure Spirit Bamboo, and the probability of the Azure Spirit Bamboo Azure Spirit Bamboo Shoots growing in this forest will be higher next spring."
"Although the Spiritual Qi contained in the Azure Spirit Bamboo Shoots is not much, it can still be considered a Cultivation Resources. You only need to hand over 100 catties of bamboo shoots from these 10 acres of Spirit Field to the Lineage each year, and any excess bamboo shoots will be yours."
"These bamboo shoots are incredibly delicious. If you stir-fry them with Demon Beast meat, the taste will be absolutely divine."
"The pigeons raised in the mountains at the Innate Realm taste pretty good. Every year, the flock will breed some pigeons. You only need to keep the number of Innate Realm pigeons. You can also eat the extra ones."
"The Azure Spirit Bamboo Shoots and pigeon meat are also extra perks for those stationed on this mountain."
Ling Rucong said with a smile.
"Let's go up to the top of the mountain."
After saying that, Ling Rucong led Ling Pengyun toward the mountaintop.
The top of Lingyun Mountain is very flat and free of debris.
Apart from a small pigeon hut, a two-story Bamboo House, and eleven acres of Spirit Field, there was nothing else.
The eleven acres of Spirit Field on the mountaintop are planted with a variety of Spirit Plant.
Five acres of First Rank Middle Grade Spirit Field, four acres of which are planted with First Rank Middle Grade Azure Jade Spirit Rice that ripens once every three years, and one acre of First Rank Middle Grade Azure Spirit Bamboo.
Five acres of First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Field, two acres of which are planted with White Jade Spirit Rice Azure Spirit Pill, two acres of which are planted with Azure Spirit Grass, the main ingredient of the Pill Refining Qingling Dan, half an acre of which is planted with twenty First-Tier Superior-Grade Azure Spirit Bamboo, and half an acre of which is planted with sixty First Rank Middle Grade Azure Spirit Bamboo.
As for that one acre of Spirit Field with a grade of Second Rank Low Grade, it was planted with spirit -Spirit Gathering Pill Spirit Gathering Grass, the main ingredient of the Second Rank Low Grade Pill Refining, spirit-gathering pill.
"Peng Yun, the sixty First Rank Middle Grade Azure Spirit Bamboo planted in that one-acre First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Field are all intended to be cultivated into First-Tier Superior-Grade Azure Spirit Bamboo. Before they break through their realm, there is no need to cut off the new bamboo stalks that grow every year. Just let them grow."
"As for those twenty First-Tier Superior-Grade Azure Spirit Bamboo, due to their grade, they only grow a section of bamboo stalk every ten years. I just cut down a batch three years ago. During the five years you have been stationed at Lingyun Mountain, you do not need to cut down a section of bamboo stalk to hand over to the Lineage. You can just water them with Spirit Rain and use the Ripening Technique."
"..."
After Ling Rucong gave Ling Pengyun a general overview of the Spirit Plant grown in the mountain, he also mentioned many details about these Spirit Plant.
Ling Pengyun was not impatient and kept all of Ling Rucong's words in mind.
These small details about planting in the mountains are extremely important. For example, the sixty First Rank Middle Grade Azure Spirit Bamboo planted in the first-grade high -First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Field. If Ling Rucong had not told him that they were intended to be cultivated into First-Tier Superior-Grade Azure Spirit Bamboo, Ling Pengyun might have cut off a section of the bamboo and handed it over to the Lineage when they grew new bamboo stalks.
It wasn't until nightfall that Ling Rucong stopped talking and invited Ling Pengyun to dinner.
As an elder, Ling Rucong generously prepared a feast of bamboo shoots from several kilograms of First-Tier Superior-Grade Azure Spirit Bamboo, which he had collected for many years, to welcome Ling Pengyun Ling Pengyun. He also stewed several pigeons raised in the mountains during the innate stage.
Examples include stir-fried bamboo shoots with Demon Beast meat, braised bamboo shoots, steamed bamboo shoots, and pigeon stewed with bamboo shoots.
Although these dishes are all made primarily with bamboo shoots, the taste is absolutely amazing.
Ling Pengyun loved bamboo shoots since he was a child.
In addition, Ling Rucong had been alone for many years and had also developed excellent cooking skills, which made Ling Pengyun's meal quite enjoyable.
After dinner, Ling Rucong chatted with Ling Pengyun for a while before arranging for Ling Pengyun to stay in a room on the second floor of the Bamboo House.
Ling Pengyun has never been particular about where he lives; as long as it's clean, that's enough.
After entering the meditation room, Ling Pengyun absorbed a mouthful of Moonlight Power as usual, and then began to cultivate using his Cultivation Method.
