The Spirit Tree's Arrangements

At that moment, Ling Pengyun asked his nephew Wu Hong.

"Xiao Hong, the Ling Clan desires this Purple Moon Spirit Tree. Could you please keep it a secret for the Ling Clan?"

"My Ling Clan is willing to pay a certain price."

Upon hearing this, Wu Hong immediately nodded in agreement. "This tree is quite valuable; it would be fine to give it to the Ling Clan, where you belong, Uncle."

"However, aside from the 30% of spirit fruits I am entitled to, I would like to take two more Purple Moon Spirit Fruit to compensate for the fact that I could not get a share of this spirit fruit tree, which would make a total of five Purple Moon Spirit Fruit."

"My father has been at the Foundation Establishment Eighth Layer for many years now. If he could have a few more Second Rank High Grade Purple Moon Spirit Fruit to help him, he could break through to the Foundation Establishment Ninth Layer even faster."

Although he was wealthy, he was not stupid. He knew the value of the Purple Moon Spirit Tree and naturally did not want to suffer a loss.

Furthermore, he is not making a deal with his uncle Ling Pengyun, but with the Ling Clan behind Ling Pengyun.

Ling Pengyun naturally accepted Wu Hong's suggestion. By paying two more Purple Moon Spirit Fruit, he could obtain the spirit tree, making it an extremely profitable deal.

"I promise you I'll grant you the request for two more Purple Moon Spirit Fruit. Your uncle thanks you in advance," Ling Pengyun said with a smile.

"Uncle, there's no need for thanks. This time, it was your Ling Clan who contributed the most to the Foundation Establishment," Wu Hong replied with a smile, and then made a vow based on his cultivation level.

With this oath made, Ling Pengyun, Ling Pengxing, and Ling Pengshan felt immediately at ease.

Then, Wu Hong glanced at the nine Purple Moon Spirit Fruit on the Purple Moon Spirit Tree that were still breaking through to the Second Rank High Grade and asked Ling Pengyun.

"Uncle, this place is teeming with Demon Beast. Even if the formation set up by your clan's fellow Daoist Ling Penglin can conceal the Qi and Blood scattered from the thousands of Bull Demon corpses outside the valley, the spiritual energy fluctuations caused when we fought those Bull Demon just now are difficult to hide."

"I'm afraid it won't be long before some Demon Beast come looking for this place."

"Uncle, you are a second-tier Spirit Planter. Do you have any way to help the nine Second Grade Middle Rank Purple Moon Spirit Fruit that this tree bear to break through to the Second Rank High Grade in a short period of time?"

"If not, we will have no choice but to waste these nine Purple Moon Spirit Fruit that are about to break through and pick them directly."

If a spiritual fruit is interrupted when it is breaking through a realm, it will fail to break through and fall back to its original grade.

Upon hearing this, Ling Pengyun smiled and said.

"These nine Second Grade Middle Rank Purple Moon Spirit Fruit have probably accumulated Spiritual Qi for several days, and they have now reached the edge of the Second Rank High Grade realm."

"Even without my help, those nine spirit fruits should be able to successfully advance to the Second Rank High Grade within a day."

"With the help of my Spirit Plant Secret Method, those nine spiritual fruits can ripen in a short time."

Wu Hong's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed with delight, "That's wonderful!"

Ling Pengyun didn't delay and immediately walked up to the Second Rank High Grade Purple Moon Spirit Tree.

With his hands constantly forming hand Hand Seals, he used the "Spirit Breakthrough Assistance Technique" from the Spirit Plant Secret Method. Relying on all the remaining Liquid Spiritual Power in his Dantian, he condensed nine cyan-green Law Seals and injected them into the nine Second Grade Middle Rank Purple Moon Spirit Fruit that were breaking through.

With the assistance of the nine cyan-green Law Seals, the aura emanating from the nine Purple Moon Spirit Fruit grew stronger and stronger.

In just half an incense stick's time, the nine Purple Moon Spirit Fruit, which already had good foundations, successively broke through their current grade and reached the Second Rank High Grade level.

Ling Pengyun followed suit, picking all nine spirit fruits and giving five to Wu Hong.

Of the remaining four, he, Ling Pengxing, Ling Pengshan, and Ling Penglin each received one.

Then, Ling Pengyun used the "Transplantation Technique" on the Purple Moon Spirit Tree Purple Moon Spirit Tree, digging it out of the ground, putting it in a huge Spirit-Locking Jade Box, and storing it in his Storage Bag.

After finishing this task, Ling Pengyun and the others plundered the remaining immature Spirit Plant in the valley before leaving.

Because that Second Rank High Grade Purple Moon Spirit Tree is extremely valuable, it is of immense benefit to Foundation Establishment power like the Ling Clan.

After discussing it, the group decided to leave the Golden Horn Grassland and return to the Clan Mountain.

As for Wu Hong, who originally wanted to find Foundation Establishment Demon Beast to fight and hone his strength on this grassland, he had no choice but to leave the grassland with his powerful uncle Ling Pengyun and return to Serpent Dragon Lake ahead of schedule.

He wasn't stupid; he knew his status was noble, and without the protection of a powerful figure like Ling Pengyun, he would be in some danger alone outside.

More than twenty days later.

Ling Pengyun, along with Ling Pengxing, Ling Pengshan, and Ling Penglin, rode the Wind Shadow Peng and traversed over a million miles, successfully returning to their Lineage's Clan Mountain. They then sought out the Lineage Clan Head, Ling Yunhong Ling Yunhong, and informed him about the Purple Moon Spirit Tree.

Upon learning of this, Ling Yunhong's face was filled with smiles, and he laughed heartily.

"With this tree, as long as the Ling Clan continues to advance to the Foundation Establishment, it will be more than enough to protect the Ling Clan. In each generation, there will be at least one Late-Stage Foundation Establishment expert to guard the Lineage."

"Ha ha ha ha!!!"

"You have done a great service this time. Here's what you'll do: each of your four Lineage will be rewarded with 10,000 Contribution Points. Furthermore, every time this tree bears spiritual fruit in the future, each of you four will receive one spiritual fruit."

"Your descendants within three generations who break through to the Foundation Establishment can also receive this spiritual fruit according to the classification of such spiritual fruits."

Upon hearing this, Ling Pengyun, Ling Pengxing, Ling Pengshan, and Ling Penglin all showed joy on their faces.

Now that the Lineage is thriving and has also participated in the operation of the Sky Talisman Commerce Association, the Lineage Contribution Points have been put to good use. The value of 10,000 Lineage Contribution Points is equivalent to the purchasing power of about 13,000 Spirit Stone.

After all, clansmen can purchase clan spirit items using Contribution Points at 70% of the market price.

Under such circumstances, 10,000 Contribution Points would be a considerable sum for the four of them.

Furthermore, there are also dividends from the spiritual fruits.

The combined benefits of these two options make it more profitable than selling the tree directly to the outside world.

"Third Grandfather." Ling Pengyun took the lead in expressing his gratitude.

Ling Pengxing other two also chimed in.

"It's the Lineage that should be thanking you."

"Alright, let's not waste any more time on these trivial matters."

"Currently, there are not many acres of High-Grade Spirit Field in the Clan Mountain. All the Spirit Field in the mountain are planted with Spirit Plant, and there are no spare Spirit Field. Temporarily opening up High-Grade Spirit Field would consume too much Spiritual Qi in the mountain, which would be detrimental to the cultivation of the cultivators in the Clan Mountain."

"There are quite a few Foundation Establishment members in the Lineage, and more than four Foundation Establishment cultivate diligently in the clan year-round. If this invaluable Purple Moon Spirit Tree is planted on the top of the Clan Mountain, the Foundation Establishment in the clan will definitely know about it. Once more people know about this, the probability of it spreading will increase."

"Furthermore, due to my focus on Pill Refining in recent years, my Spirit Plant cultivation has not progressed much in the past ten or twenty years. My Spirit Plant cultivation level is still only Second Grade Middle Rank, making it difficult to care for this tree."

"On the other hand, Peng Yun, the Spirit Vein of Falling Dusk Mountain that you are stationed in is no weaker than that of the Clan Mountain. It is rich in Spiritual Qi and can be developed into a High-Grade Spirit Field to plant this tree. Moreover, few cultivators go to Falling Dusk Mountain, so the matter of this tree can be kept secret."

"In addition, Peng Yun, your Spirit Plant cultivation has broken through to the Second Rank High Grade a few years ago, which allows you to accelerate the fruiting speed of this tree through Spirit Plant Secret Method."

"In my opinion, this tree would be better planted on Falling Dusk Mountain. I wonder if Peng Yun, you would be willing to take on the responsibility of caring for it?"

Ling Yunhong gazed at the three-zhang-tall purple-leaved Purple Leaf Spirit Tree in front of him, and after thinking for a while, he spoke to Ling Pengyun.

Upon hearing this, Ling Pengyun agreed with the idea.

Nowadays, 99% of the Ling Clan's spirit fruit trees are located in the Spirit Plant Garden on Falling Dusk Mountain.

The Clan Mountain's Spirit Field had already been mostly removed to free up enough Spiritual Qi for the clan's cultivators to cultivate in.

After all, as the Lineage prospered, the number of ordinary clansmen under its command continued to grow, and the number of clansmen with Spirit Root also increased. Currently, there are more than 180 Qi Refining clansmen in the Lineage.

There are as many as five or six Foundation Establishment Cultivator stationed in the Lineage.

The current location of Clan Mountain is more like a cultivation place for the Ling Clan family.

Because of the Spirit Plant Garden within it, Falling Dusk Mountain is positioned by the Ling Clan as a treasure trove specifically for cultivating Spirit Plant.

"Taking care of this tree is not difficult, and I am naturally willing to take care of it," Ling Pengyun replied.

"Then I'll leave this matter to you."

After making a lighthearted remark, Ling Yunhong's expression turned serious, and he addressed Ling Pengyun and the other three solemnly.

"All four of you remember this: the matter of the spirit tree must never be revealed."

"Understood." Ling Pengyun and the others nodded in response.

Subsequently, Ling Pengyun and the other three took out the Purple Moon Spirit Fruit they had obtained and handed them to Ling Yunhong.

"Third Grandfather, you have been at the Foundation Establishment Ninth Layer for many years, and are close to the Consummation Realm Foundation Establishment realm. If you have these four Purple Moon Spirit Fruit to help you, you can break through to the Consummation Realm sooner," Ling Pengyun said.

This matter was already agreed upon when they returned to their Clan Mountain from the grasslands.

"I have purified 50-60% of the Liquid Spiritual Power in my Dantian. Even without the help of these four spiritual fruits, I can break through to the Foundation Establishment Consummation Realm within seven or eight years."

"These four spiritual fruits are of little use to me."

"These four spiritual fruits are extremely rare and valuable, so it's a bit of a waste to waste them like this."

"Keep this for yourselves when you encounter a bottleneck in your health, and use it."

Seeing Ling Pengyun and the others deliver fruit, Ling Yunhong felt a warmth in his heart, and a kind smile appeared on his face as he spoke.

Upon hearing this, Ling Pengyun and the others had no choice but to put away the spiritual fruits they had offered.

Then, Ling Yunhong dismissed Ling Pengxing, Ling Pengshan, and Ling Penglin, leaving Ling Pengyun alone.

"Peng Yun, how many more years will it take you to reach the Foundation Establishment Completion?"

"Because my two Natal Spirit Plant and that natal Lifebound Magic Item need to be nurtured, it will take me at least fifteen more years to purify all the spiritual power in my body and reach the Foundation Establishment Completion."

"However, with the help of my wife's second-tier Spirit Cuisine, I can shorten the time to about ten years." Ling Pengyun's expression shifted slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he replied.

Upon hearing that Ling Pengyun would only need ten years to break through to the Foundation Establishment Completion, Ling Yunhong's eyes lit up with an Nameless fervor, and he spoke with a hint of excitement.

"That's good. In that case, ten years from now, the Lineage will have two more Foundation Establishment Completion cultivators. Our Ling Clan can truly stand proudly among the other Foundation Establishment Family in the Hundred Spirits Sect territory and become the number one Lineage in the Hundred Spirits Sect territory in all right."

"And you and I will both be far from the optimal age of 150 when we break through to the Golden Core stage in ten years. Do you want to try your luck at reaching the Golden Core realm?"

Ling Pengyun's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes narrowed as he said, "Of course I want to."
