[Spirit Field: lv4 (Cannot be upgraded)]
[Spirit Effect 1: Crop growth cycle reduced by 60%; Upon harvest, there’s a 40% chance to harvest double crops, and a 10% chance to harvest triple crops.]
[Spirit Effect 2 (Spirit Pill Creation): Every 10 years, you can harvest 1 Pill Essence Fruit.]
[Upgrade conditions: Mid-grade Spirit Stones ×500, Tier Three Demon Pill ×1, Dan Yang Soil ×10 jin, Profound Yin Soil ×20 jin, Tier Two burrowing earthworm corpses ×3 (Not achieved)]
Still the sa two Spirit Effects.
To get three Spirit Effects, estimating at least a level 5 building is needed.
Spirit Effect 1 is a standard upgrade, nothing much to say.
The focus is on this Spirit Effect 2... Spirit Pill Creation!
The harvest ti has also gotten longer; now it’s harvested once a year, but in the future, it’ll beco once every 10 years. Just from this point alone, one can infer the value of this Pill Essence Fruit.
Pill Essence, Pill Essence... Could it be related to Core Formation?
Ji Yuan boldly guessed in his heart.
Looks like I have to find an opportunity to investigate what this Pill Essence Fruit is all about.
Harvested two millennium-old Illusion Spirit Grass, Ji Yuan was in a great mood.
One plant is worth 150 Spirit Stones, and it’s the type of thing people want to buy but no one wants to sell... And I have two plants, probably even if I priced them at 180 each, soone would want them?
Thinking this way, the initial investnt imdiately returned.
But just thinking about it, selling them is impossible.
This item, at least I should consider selling it after I’ve reached Foundation Establishnt.
Afterward, Ji Yuan cultivated at ho for two more days until early morning on the third day... Du Wanyi ca.
This ans it’s the day to et up at the Water Dragon Sect.
"Mount Shui Island..."
Ji Yuan recalled the location, "Let’s go."
After speaking, he once again released the Scarlet Skies Skiff; two streams of fiery red light soared into the sky, and the two figures imdiately disappeared on Chulong Island.
The Mutual Aid Association’s eting...
With the previous encounter, Ji Yuan didn’t have high expectations, at most just going to listen in, to see if there’s any valuable information.
As for the comradeship from the sa year, the four from before have dwindled to two and a half now.
With Yao Jingfeng’s current situation, he can only be considered half... although Du Wanyi said he could return, whether he truly can return is still uncertain.
Besides, having already joined the sect, investing in camaraderie from the sa year doesn’t hold much aning.
At most, just look for like-minded individuals to make friends with.
"Fourth brother, have you been wandering around the Water Dragon Sect these days?"
"Cough, cough, I’m familiarizing myself with the environnt of the Water Dragon Sect."
Du Wanyi rolled her eyes and said again, "By the way, I discovered a little island that’s quite beautiful, filled with flowers on top of it. When I went, I heard a senior sister say that the island has blooming flowers all year round. We should go take a look if we have the ti."
"Look at flowers?"
Ji Yuan said puzzledly, "Isn’t it better to use that ti for cultivation?"
Du Wanyi: "..."
Mount Shui Island, with mountains and water, also features a grand waterfall.
As for the origin of the waterfall on this island, Ji Yuan glanced at it while passing by two days ago... It looks like so talented elder built a Water Extraction Array to create this beautiful scene.
The eting place was at a Scenic Pavilion not far from this waterfall.
When Ji Yuan and Du Wanyi arrived, many figures were already seated here.
Ji Yuan scanned and saw Fang Jie and others were there, and among the familiar faces, he only recognized Han Feiyu from Zengtou City.
"Here he cos, the leader of the year has arrived."
An unfamiliar short old man, upon seeing Ji Yuan arrive, hurriedly announced.
The rest followed suit, each expressing warm enthusiasm.
Ji Yuan quickly cupped his hands to them, "I wouldn’t dare; it’s just luck."
"Brother Ji, it’s not luck; we’ve all heard of your exploits."
"Exactly, even the Demon Wolf couldn’t last a few rounds. Brother Ji’s strength, I’m afraid, is unrivaled at the Peak of Qi Refining."
"..."
Engaged in comrcial flattery, Ji Yuan wasn’t afraid of the occasion and joined in the mutual praises with them.
Though unfamiliar with their identities or thods, the elderly praised the deanor, while those temporarily lacking cultivation flattered the potential... he was quite adept at these.
After a while of pleasantries, Ji Yuan heard a gentle voice coming from behind.
"Co, Brother Ji, sit here."
Ji Yuan turned around and saw a man of rather handso appearance, a middle-aged uncle...
"I’ve t Elder Han."
Ji Yuan cupped his hands and smiled at him.
"We’re all brothers, where does this talk of elders co in? If you don’t mind, just call Brother Han."
Han Feiyu indeed matched his reputation of being gentle; Ji Yuan simply smiled and called him "Brother Han."
anwhile, Du Wanyi, who had been speaking with a beautiful woman, turned and introduced her to Ji Yuan, "Fourth brother, this is Senior Sister Dong Qian."
"I’ve t Senior Sister Dong."
Ji Yuan smiled and greeted her with a courtesy.
Dong Qian is quite a well-known figure in Zengtou City... Ji Yuan had only glimpsed her briefly three years ago when she joined the Water Dragon Sect.
Today counted as their first real eting.
With just one look, Ji Yuan had a feeling—this is a mature, beautiful woman.
It’s not that Ji Yuan was being frivolous, but Dong Qian’s alluring appearance and her shapely figure declared it unmistakably.
Especially since her attire was rather modest, not wearing any form-fitting clothes that highlighted her figure, just a slightly loose-fitting purple floral gown.
Her chest was covered thoroughly, revealing only a hint of collarbone and a Snow White neck.
Yet even so, her ample bosom was notably apparent even under her robe.
Indeed, she’s a married woman... Ji Yuan could only internally sigh.
But it goes without saying, just this eting today left an impression of Dong Qian in his heart.
"In the Water Dragon Sect, there’s hardly anyone more handso than Junior Brother Ji."
Dong Qian said with a charming smile.
"Senior Sister Dong is the sa."
Ji Yuan replied with a comrcial smile.
"Alright, the rest probably aren’t coming, so let’s hear from everyone now, if there’s any news recently."
An emaciated old man dressed in the standard magic robe of the Water Dragon Sect spoke in a deep voice.
As soon as he spoke, the originally sowhat noisy pavilion quieted down.
Ji Yuan had already noticed this person, because everyone was seated together, yet only this old man occupied a large space by himself, with no one daring to be near him.
It seems now that he must be the leader of this Mutual Aid Association—Liu Cangke.
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Feiyu, who was sitting next to Ji Yuan, spoke up: "The battle accomplishnts and rewards for Liancheng Mountain have already been announced, and the highest reward is... Foundation Establishnt Pill, and there are three of them!"
"What?!"
"The sect actually took out Foundation Establishnt Pills as rewards?"
"Damn, it seems those who went first hit the jackpot."
"..."
The ntion of "Foundation Establishnt Pill" imdiately stirred discussions among those present, even Ji Yuan was slightly taken aback.
He had originally thought that obtaining a Foundation Establishnt Pill would be difficult, but didn’t expect to hear such news just upon arriving at the Water Dragon Sect.
"Yes, Han Feiyu is right."
Liu Cangke nodded in agreent, acknowledging the truth of the matter.
"The sect taking out Foundation Establishnt Pills as rewards will probably attract quite a few people there."
"Indeed, I’m tempted myself."
A cultivator at the peak of Qi Refining said.
After hearing this, Han Feiyu turned to Ji Yuan beside him and said: "Brother Ji, you now have the strength at the peak of Qi Refining, do you have any thoughts about the Foundation Establishnt Pill?"
"I’m rely at the late stage of Qi Refining, I wouldn’t dare think about a Foundation Establishnt Pill."
Ji Yuan replied humbly with a smile.
"That is incorrect."
Han Feiyu slowly shook his head, his voice even more earnest, "Everyone seated in this pavilion has only Pseudo Spirit Roots, and you must have heard of the difficulty of establishing a foundation with Pseudo Spirit Roots, Brother Ji, so it’s better to plan early for this Foundation Establishnt Pill."
Upon hearing this, Dong Qian also advised: "Brother Han is quite right."
"Brother Ji is strong, how about this ti, the two of us go to Liancheng Mountain together, what do you think?"
Han Feiyu again encouraged.
Seeing Ji Yuan’s hesitation, Du Wanyi, who was holding Dong Qian’s arm, spoke up: "Brother Han, don’t force my Fourth Brother, he doesn’t like magical combat, he just prefers to cultivate peacefully at ho."
"Ah, I see."
Han Feiyu laughed.
"Alright, then I won’t force you, I’ll go discuss with others."
"Sorry to have wasted Brother Han’s good intentions."
Ji Yuan smiled apologetically... Going to the frontline, he even took out an Ascension Order and used Li Changhe as a shield to avoid going.
How could he possibly send himself there now?
However, he could understand Han Feiyu and their mindset.
They didn’t have access to the millennium Illusion Spirit Grass, so naturally, they didn’t have channels for obtaining Foundation Establishnt Pills. Now that there’s a way to obtain them, naturally, they wouldn’t miss it.
They’re not just going to this frontline at Liancheng Mountain, if another Secret Realm appears, they will also go... risking their lives.
Risking their lives, risking their lives.
They’re also risking for that sliver of hope in Foundation Establishnt.
People competing and vying... Ji Yuan watched the Scenic Pavilion with many discussions, planning to go to the frontline together, feeling quite emotional.
After Han Feiyu had finished inviting Ji Yuan, he agreed to go with Dong Qian.
As for Du Wanyi, whether due to spending too much ti with Ji Yuan and becoming cautious, or she truly not wanting to go.
In any case, she refused Dong Qian’s suggestion, saying she just arrived and needs to familiarize herself with the Water Dragon Sect first, planning to take on a few simple tasks before considering further.
Everyone was discussing, Ji Yuan remained silent, just listening quietly.
And heard a na being repeatedly ntioned.
Han Feiyu was also gathering with others, listening to a senior who had been to the frontline describe the situation at Liancheng Mountain, so Ji Yuan asked Dong Qian:
"Senior Sister Dong, who exactly is Feng Yichen?"
Dong Qian turned and explained with a soft voice: "He is the legend of our Pseudo Spirit Roots, also known as the most promising Pseudo Spirit Root for Foundation Establishnt in the Water Dragon Sect."
"Oh?"
"That’s quite the reputation."
Ji Yuan expressed surprise.
"Yes, he has killed a Foundation Establishnt, killed head-on." Dong Qian’s tone remained calm.
"Huh?"
Ji Yuan looked at her in disbelief, "Qi Cultivation killed Foundation Establishnt?"
"Yes."
Dong Qian spread her hands, "Otherwise, why would he be known as the most promising Pseudo Spirit Root for Foundation Establishnt in our Water Dragon Sect."
Du Wanyi was hearing about this person for the first ti, "If Qi Cultivation can kill Foundation Establishnt, then it wouldn’t make a difference whether he undergoes Foundation Establishnt or not."
"You can’t say it like that."
Dong Qian replied with a helpless smile.
Ji Yuan tapped his fingers lightly on his knee, silently noting down this person.
Qi Cultivation killing Foundation Establishnt, such a person is quite extraordinary.
"Looking at it this way, one of those three Foundation Establishnt Pills on the frontline must be Feng Yichen’s." Dong Qian muttered to herself.
"Probably, we’ll just have to compete for the remaining two, and we don’t have the advantage by starting late, it’ll be hard, going there would an a desperate fight."
Han Feiyu finished chatting and returned to sit beside Ji Yuan.
"It’s okay, just do your best, as long as you keep the mountain green, there’ll always be wood to burn, if you don’t get a Foundation Establishnt Pill this ti, then continue next ti."
Dong Qian spoke softly.
"That’s true."
As they were speaking, suddenly a voice rang out, abruptly quieting the crowd present.
"I have so gossip about the Nine Nether Cave Heaven, would you all be interested?"
