After asking around, only Mo Yuanjiao said he was interested in going.

It's worth mentioning that Lin Xiao had also sent messages to all the elders, but they weren't interested in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, which was so far away, nor were they interested in going out to play with Lin Xiao and his friends.

However, the elders accepted the suggestion to go on a trip, and then they bypassed the younger generation and held a small group meeting.

Finally, they unanimously agreed and made a decision.

They want to form their own group and go on a trip.

They even came up with a tour group name: Lingxian Sect Sunset Glows Red Tour Group.

However, they didn't go to the Immortal Cultivation Realm; instead, they traveled through the Mortal Realm.

Wow, I heard that besides their Pusi Kingdom and a few surrounding countries, there are more than seventy countries in the entire Mortal Realm. How interesting! I never imagined that the Mortal Realm had so many countries.

They've heard that customs vary greatly from place to place, and they've been visiting Xiushui City for a long time, hearing all sorts of strange tales from different countries, which has made them incredibly curious.

They hadn't originally planned to go out and have fun, but now that Lin Xiao mentioned going to the Immortal Cultivation Realm, they immediately thought, "If we're going to have fun, we should do it in the Mortal Realm! We haven't even explored our hometown yet, why go all the way there?"

As a result, the Immortal Cultivation Realm travel group consisted of only Lin Xiao and Mo Yuanjiao, while the Mortal Realm travel group saw all the elders who weren't particularly busy sign up.

It would be so much better to play in the Mortal Realm. Nowadays, there are so many flying ships from Xiushui City at the foot of the mountain to various regions every day. If anything happens in the sect, we can be notified in time and rush back to deal with it. After that, we can go back and continue playing.

Oh dear, why didn't I think of this before? The more I think about it, the more perfect it seems.

The elders were quite efficient; they booked the number of people and the travel time the very next day.

The leader of the Sunset Glows Red Group was appointed as Yang Jinshu.

Although she was the Law Enforcement Hall, the disciples of the Lingxian Sect were all people who could Heart-Questioning Road. Moreover, everyone was very busy, so there were almost no major conflicts, let alone trivial ones. Even if there were occasional conflicts, they would resolve them peacefully through internal discussions. Therefore, Yang Jinshu's main job on weekdays was to arrange patrols.

Aside from that, she helped out in other areas.

Now that she wants to go out and have fun, she simply hands over the affairs of the Law Enforcement Hall to the other disciples in the Law Enforcement Hall, which is also a good way to give the disciples more opportunities to train.

Yang Jinshu specially made a travel route plan, which included almost all the famous scenic spots in the Mortal Realm and arranged the best route.

Lin Xiao didn't interfere much in the elders' affairs, but their sheer number meant they caused quite a stir.

I heard that they had prepared a lot of food for their trip, and some of the elders had even pickled a lot of their own special pickled vegetables, planning to exchange them with the locals in other countries, to taste the flavors of other places, and to promote communication and exchange, euphemistically called: pickled vegetable diplomacy.

They also went to the Finance Hall to apply to the sect for a large spirit ship, in case there were places where there was no ferry service and transportation was inconvenient.

After all, some elderly people are not used to flying on their swords, and since everyone's cultivation level is different, their flying speed and distance are also different.

Besides, flying by yourself is too much trouble. If there's a spirit ship, you'll definitely use it. It won't cost much more than a few Spirit Stone.

The elders all have a habit of saving things. Although they do use some Spirit Stone, they have saved up quite a lot. The Spirit Stone needed to power the spirit ship are not much to them.

As for why we still prioritize taking the scheduled ferry and only use our sect's spirit ship when there's no scheduled ferry service, it's because in some places, the prices are very affordable due to the numerous ferry services, making the scheduled ferry cheaper.

In addition, the elders also brought many local specialties from Xiushui City.

The Spirit Field Group also plans to bring along many of the high-quality common species they have cultivated.

These high-quality common plants were discovered incidentally while they were researching Spirit Plant. Many of them have already been distributed to residents of Xiushui City who own land and have planted them several times. Many have seen significant increases in yield, but a small number have not yielded very high harvests.

Some of the seeds could be grown in the research fields carefully prepared by the Lingxian Sect's Spirit Field Group, but they were extremely unsuitable for the climate, environment, and soil of the Xiushui City area. Moreover, the cost of environmental modification far outweighed the harvest value, so these seeds were not distributed for expanded planting.

However, the elders of the Spirit Field Group did not discard these seeds; they carefully preserved them. After all, the seeds themselves were not worthless, and who knows, they might prove their value in some suitable place in the future.

Although they had previously presented these seeds at agricultural exchange conferences, these were all common seeds, which sects and cultivators looked down upon. Mortal nations could use them, but many officials felt that using new seeds was too risky. Moreover, these were all researched by immortals; could those country bumpkins really grow them well?

They felt their country was doing alright, so there was no need to waste time and effort on developing new crops.

Humans are inherently lazy, especially when something doesn't seem directly relevant to them or isn't urgent. Why bother trying to improve it then? It's fine as it is.

That's what most people think.

The elders of the Spirit Field Group were aware of these things to some extent, because a few years ago, they were considered "peasants" who weren't so important in the eyes of many upper classes.

The broader their horizons become, the clearer they realize how insignificant and trivial they are in the eyes of others.

So although they have been working hard to promote various seeds, they don't have much hope that others will be willing to spread them.

It's more reassuring to spread the word myself.

Now that opportunity has arrived.

The elders of the Spirit Field Group collected a lot of each kind of seed, and also brought many seedlings and fresh finished product samples.

Lin Xiao was very suspicious that in the end, the elders might go to one place and stay there to provide agricultural support for a period of time.

After all, many farmers at the bottom of society in this era did not live a good life. The more difficult life was, the less they dared to engage with the unknown, because that meant instability.

While it's true that poverty breeds resourcefulness, there aren't actually that many people who have the guts to actually do something about it, as long as they're doing alright.

Therefore, elders might go to great lengths to let them see the results of their seeds in order to demonstrate their value.

Lin Xiao hesitated, wondering if he should try to persuade them beforehand, otherwise it would be too tiring for them, especially since they were on vacation... But then he thought, this was originally the elders' hobby, their 'way', so he decided to leave it alone.
