Chapter 190: I Believe in You
Seeing the hint of belief and admiration in Steward Fan’s confused gaze, Ji Yang continued,
"Once is not enough. From now on, I will perform a spell every day. As for other times, you should care for them as usual."
"Remember, the timing for casting the spell each day will be different, so do not cast it lightly."
Steward Fan nodded in agreement and then warned the other disciples,
"What Junior Brother Ji said, everyone needs to understand!"
The other disciples nodded, quietly watching the spiritual plants they had nurtured, their confusion still apparent.
He felt that the spiritual plant he was taking care of seemed to have grown taller.
After the two left, a noisy discussion began among the crowd:
"Who was that senior brother just now?"
"Senior Brother Ji? Has anyone heard of this senior brother at Qiyun Peak?"
Among those present were punished disciples and others who cared for spiritual plants at Qiyun Peak, and some disciples shook their heads:
"I haven’t heard of a Senior Brother Ji at Qiyun Peak."
"That’s strange. A person with such insight into spiritual plants can’t be an unknown figure."
"I even saw an elder chatting and laughing with him just now. Could he be an elder inspecting the sect?"
"Are you foolish? Steward Fan clearly referred to him as Junior Brother Ji. Besides, this senior brother is wearing inner sect disciple’s attire."
Due to a lack of information and rarely going out to the spiritual herb garden, many disciples did not know the identity of this Senior Brother Ji.
"Alright, thank you for your hard work, Steward Fan!"
Ji Yang said with a warm smile.
"It’s no trouble at all; it’s all part of my duty."
Steward Fan scratched his head, feeling that something was off.
Ji Yang continued,
"I have figured out the spiritual plants here, so I won’t trouble Steward Fan further. From now on, I will mainly take care of these five Top-tier Spiritual Plants, and there is no need for Steward Fan to send anyone else."
"Additionally, I will check the High-Level Spirit Plant Area every day and perform a spell. You need not worry about that, Steward Fan."
Hearing Ji Yang’s allocation of tasks, Steward Fan nodded.
"In that case, I will trouble Junior Brother Ji!"
After Steward Fan left, Ji Yang hurried to the areas in the spiritual herb garden where the Top-tier Spiritual Plants were grown.
Including "White Moon Xuanjin," there were a total of five Top-tier Spiritual Plants: "Indigo Treasure," "Purple-Backed Tian Kui," "Deer Horn Frost," and "Wei Ling Xian."
Indigo Treasure looked like a bamboo segment, standing several meters tall and entirely green. It has detoxifying properties, can be used for pill crafting, and once fully matured, it can even serve as a material for crafting tools. However, it takes thousands of years for this spiritual plant to fully mature.
Purple-Backed Tian Kui has only one leaf, and when it blooms, it produces male and female flowers. The male flower has four petals, while the female flower has three petals. The male flower can heal physical injuries, and the female flower can restore spiritual injuries.
However, it has not bloomed yet.
Deer Horn Frost is a rather peculiar spiritual plant, shaped like deer antlers. It does not bloom, bear fruit, or grow leaves. When mature, it is covered in white frost, which can be harvested to enhance one’s cultivation level and is highly effective for pill crafting.
Wei Ling Xian is a type of vine-like spiritual plant.
In its early stage, it spreads like a vine, with stems resembling hairpins and layers of willow leaves. Each layer has six or seven leaves, resembling a wheel; it can have six to seven layers, and its petals are pale purple or jade white.
This plant has the effects of strengthening the body and detoxifying, even in the Cultivation World, where unusual poisons exist that ordinary methods cannot cure.
After witnessing several Top-tier Spiritual Plants in the spiritual herb garden, Ji Yang carefully learned about them.
Although he possesses divine abilities, he still needs to understand the general characteristics of these plants to avoid difficulties in handling them.
After getting to know these spiritual plants, Ji Yang performed the Large Cloud Rain Technique on each one to ensure he could harvest the benefits the next day.
Among them, the "White Moon Xuanjin" required special attention to prevent it from withering away.
Once he had completed everything, Ji Yang went straight to sleep.
He had worked hard, and now he would leave the rest to time for answers.
The next day, Ji Yang stretched and immediately began examining the "White Moon Xuanjin."
After Ji Yang’s special care, the White Moon Xuanjin had returned to its normal growth and was full of vitality.
Above this spiritual plant, a blue light point caught his eye.
Ji Yang smiled and collected the light point.
Cultivation Level +1
Very good. It was worth all the effort to revive this plant, and now it was time to reap the rewards.
After collecting the light point from this plant, Ji Yang hurried to the areas of the other Top-tier Spiritual Plants.
Cultivation Level +1
Cultivation Level +1
Cultivation Level +1
…
As Top-tier Spiritual Plants, even with just one round of care, they gifted him blue light points the next day.
If he had enough of these plants, he would only need to wait patiently for the benefits.
Unfortunately, even within the He Dao Sect, such spiritual plants were few in number.
This made Ji Yang’s hopes fall short.
After harvesting the light points from the Top-tier Spiritual Plants, Ji Yang headed toward the High-Level Spirit Plant Area in the spiritual herb garden.
At this time, many disciples were already tending to their daily tasks. Upon seeing Ji Yang arrive, they all respectfully nodded:
"Hello, Senior Brother Ji!"
"Greetings, Senior Brother Ji!"
…
Ji Yang nodded slightly, but his attention was not on the disciples; he was fully focused on the many high-level spiritual plants before him.
Before him were the various High-level Spiritual Plants that he had watered with the Large Cloud Rain Technique yesterday. They remained in good condition, and on many of the plants, corresponding light points had gathered.
These light points were at least green, and many were blue light points.
Truly, they were High-level Spiritual Plants; the harvest was far greater than that of Mid-tier Spiritual Plants.
Faced with so many light points, Ji Yang did not rush but instead inspected each plant one by one.
After his observations, Ji Yang took the time to fiddle with some of the spiritual plants that bore light points and then offered his comments.
"You’ve cultivated this well!"
"Very good."
"This one is lacking a bit, but it’s no big deal!"
"Keep up the hard work!"
"I have high hopes for you!"
…
Such encouraging words excited the other disciples as well.
Little did they know, Ji Yang was secretly smiling from ear to ear.
Cultivation Level +1
Yun Ling Dan +1
Cultivation Level +1
…
The time he once felt he wasted in the sect was now being redeemed.
Although not every High-level Spiritual Plant produced blue light points, there were hundreds of them in the High-Level Spirit Plant Area. Even if only one-third showed light points, the rewards for Ji Yang would still be substantial.
Among them, blue light points were a minority.
However, when Ji Yang collected all the rewards, the originally modest cultivation points had surprisingly reached eighty-five.
Compared to the sixty-two points he had before, that was an increase of twenty-three points.
If this continued, the gains would be comparable to mining and growing spiritual grains.
This was indeed the fastest way to elevate his realm.
Unfortunately, he had not understood this before.
But Ji Yang also realized that this was entirely due to the profound foundation of the He Dao Sect.
If he relied solely on himself to plant so many High-level Spiritual Plants, he did not know how long it would take.
