Chapter 476: Seasonal Green

If not stopped, all the treasures of Jingtan Peak would be destroyed in an instant, something Ji Yang could not tolerate.

It seems this was also the primary reason why Peak Master Su was willing to part with this spiritual plant.

After understanding the effects of this spiritual plant, Ji Yang began his remedial measures.

First, he needed to contain the gradually spreading aroma within a fixed area.

Ji Yang thought for a moment and took out a set of formations from the Heaven’s Secret Pearl, which he had found in several storage bags yesterday.

This formation was called the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation; it was originally designed to trap enemies, but it also had other effects like isolating scents, making it perfect for this situation.

Ji Yang set up the formation and placed spiritual stones at each formation point.

Soon, an invisible barrier rose up around the central spiritual plant.

He believed that everything would be fine now, but when Ji Yang carefully checked again, his smile instantly vanished.

He saw that the formation he had set up had no effect on the aroma; it continued to spread.

Seeing the formation was useless, Ji Yang cast multiple different spells, trying to disperse the aroma, but still to no avail.

In the end, Ji Yang even summoned sword energy, attempting to isolate it with the energy, but the result was the same.

Neither the formation, spells, nor sword energy could stop the spread of the aroma, and Ji Yang’s expression turned grim.

It seemed he needed to take serious action; otherwise, this spiritual plant would think it was in its own backyard!

Ji Yang silently took out his iron pick and slowly walked towards the spiritual plant.

As Ji Yang approached, the Breathing Technique of All Things activated quietly.

“Blow, blow, my pride runs wild…”

“Blow, blow…”

As the technique manifested, the cheerful singing of the nearby spiritual plants filled the air.

“Shut up!”

Ji Yang decisively interrupted.

The singing spiritual plant seemed surprised but paid no attention to Ji Yang, continuing its song.

As its silent singing continued, the surrounding aroma kept spreading.

It was only when Ji Yang placed his iron pick beside the spiritual plant that its singing finally stopped.

“What do you want?”

A weak voice came from it.

Seeing that this spiritual plant was not stubborn, Ji Yang revealed a faint smile.

After a moment’s pause, Ji Yang finally left in satisfaction, not forgetting to absorb the light points that appeared above its head.

Cultivation +1

As Ji Yang departed, the previously spreading aroma gradually began to retract, ultimately being contained in that fixed spiritual field.

From their earlier conversation, Ji Yang also learned the name of this spiritual plant.

The spiritual plant was named Seasonal Green. It emitted aroma to eliminate surrounding spiritual plants, allowing it to absorb more spiritual energy, and to attract many spiritual beasts for protection.

However, before it matured, this spiritual plant contained deadly poison, and upon maturation, it would instantaneously vanish, cleverly using labor without any cost.

After Ji Yang’s friendly conversation, it agreed not to disperse its aroma anymore.

Now, Ji Yang had obtained three Top-tier Spiritual Plants, which could provide him with a bit of cultivation points each day. While it seemed small, over the years, he would not need more than ten years to reach the maximum limit of cultivation points.

Aside from this fixed gain, Ji Yang could also gather plenty of cultivation points from other places.

With this calculation, he might not need many years at all.

Thinking of the Top-tier Spiritual Plants, Ji Yang once again looked at the seeds he had planted yesterday.

Feeling the seeds growing naturally in the spiritual field, Ji Yang nodded lightly; it seemed this seed did not require his assistance for now.

Truly, it was a seed that had survived to this day, working hard on its own.

After absorbing all the light points from the spiritual plants, Ji Yang turned his gaze to the many spiritual fields below the mountain.

In these fields, many Golden Fruit spiritual grains were planted.

Hmm? Wait a minute.

“Why are there Golden Fruit spiritual grains?”

Ji Yang asked Little Black, who was nearby.

Little Black scratched his head with his paw and then licked his tongue.

Ji Yang’s expression darkened; he didn’t need to ask more. It was certainly because the Golden Fruit spiritual grains had a better flavor.

Unfortunately, looking around, many of the spiritual grains shone with a light white color, lacking even a hint of green.

This made Ji Yang shake his head slightly. It seemed that just watering them wouldn’t produce enough quality light points, and of course, part of the reason was that these spiritual plants had already been harvested once.

Next time, he should plant the other three types of spiritual grains.

Although they were just white light points, Ji Yang was not reserved and began to absorb them one by one.

These white light points were essential for him to reach a higher realm.

Whether he could withstand more powerful Calamity Clouds would depend on how much land he had planted.

It appeared that expanding the spiritual fields on the peak was urgent.

Strength +1

Physique +1

Physique +1

Spirit +1

…

After absorbing all the light points, Ji Yang cast the Large Cloud Rain Technique once more and then stepped towards the peak.

He had done what he needed to do, and now it was up to time.

Back at the peak, Ji Yang pondered over his current cultivation points, which were just over a hundred.

Although he now had three Top-tier Spiritual Plants and a highly potential seed, along with the spiritual grains of the entire peak, it should provide him with some cultivation points daily.

However, he was still far from reaching the maximum limit of cultivation points.

He needed to gain more cultivation points while also increasing his Essence Condensation and solidifying his physical body.

All three paths were essential.

Thinking about the essence of the Way, Ji Yang focused once again.

Good, after a night of settling, the Essence of War within him had begun to slowly awaken; it wouldn’t be long before he could use it again.

However, relying solely on Jingtan Peak might not be enough.

Through Ji Yang’s exploration, he found that mining was an excellent method to quickly enhance his essence condensation, faster than harvesting spiritual plants.

Moreover, mining could also increase his cultivation points, while planting was more convenient for strengthening his body. If he wanted steady growth in cultivation points, planting more Top-tier Spiritual Plants was the solution.

Ji Yang gazed into the distance towards the sect’s Feng Ling Valley, then turned to look at the sect’s spiritual herb garden and the locations of several mines.

Unfortunately, he had been blacklisted by the sect, so aside from Feng Ling Valley, he couldn’t go to any other places.

Just as Ji Yang was pondering how to implement his plan, the wooden door behind him slowly opened.

“Greetings, Master!”
