Chapter 67
: The Pragmatic Xu Yan and the Little Cloud Rain Technique (Please continue reading)
However, Xu Yan was somewhat dissolute.
But once spirit stones are involved, intelligence quickly takes over the mind.
The two bargained several times.
Ultimately, the price of each "emotional essence" was set at two and a half low-grade spirit stones.
Before Xu Yan could take out the spirit stone...
Li Changsheng's mind stirred slightly, and he suddenly asked, "Senior Sister Xu, can you buy 'Spirit Spring Water'?"
He paused, then added:
"It's not just one or two jugs, but as much as the three wine jars I traded with Senior Sister Xu a few days ago, every day."
"Three jars of spiritual spring water daily..."
Xu Yan was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and looked at Li Changsheng with eyes that were almost brimming with tears. Providing three jars of spiritual spring water every day, it was obvious that he definitely had a spiritual spring that gushed out spirit stones.
Big spender! ...
"My lord, I have just mastered a special skill, and I truly do not wish to..."
Xu Yan lightly lifted her thin shirt, as if pointing something out.
Li Changsheng said speechlessly, "Let's get down to business."
"Boring..."
Xu Yan rolled her eyes at him, thought for a moment, and shook her head, saying, "I still have to work at 'Wanchun Tower,' how could I have time to deal with the spiritual spring water..."
Just as Li Changsheng was feeling disappointed.
She suddenly smiled and said:
"However, I can introduce you to Rong Momo, who is in charge of the girls and purchasing at 'Wanchunlou'."
"Wanchunlou is no small workshop; it has a considerable demand for spiritual spring water. With the quality of your spiritual spring water, young master, it will definitely pass the test..."
She rested one hand on the table, revealing a large expanse of gray hair, and whistled lightly, saying:
"But how will you thank me, my lord?..."
boom…
Li Changsheng placed the wine jar filled with spiritual spring water at his feet directly on the table, startling the lustful Xu Yan. She waved her hand generously and said:
"Consider this jar of spiritual spring water a thank-you gift to Senior Sister Xu for the introduction..."
"My lord is truly oblivious to romance..."
Despite her fright, Xu Yan remained pragmatic, bringing the wine jar to her side, opening the lid, glancing inside, and smiling as she said:
"Wait until I leave. Within three to five days, a purchasing agent from 'Wanchunlou' will surely come looking for you, my lord."
"Thank you, Senior Sister Xu."
Li Changsheng bowed and thanked him.
What he admired most about Xu Yan was her pragmatism. No matter how she felt, as long as she could earn spirit stones, she was in a good mood and her face was beaming with smiles.
The thought flashed through his mind, and he asked:
"Then, Senior Sister Xu, the 'Joyful Union' spiritual power, essence blood?..."
Xu Yan, considering that the person before her was a potential patron possessing a "spiritual spring," hesitated for a moment, then gave her an expression that said, "I understand your thoughts perfectly," and said:
"I'll only sell you three, no more than that..."
"Senior Sister Xu, sell a few more. It's only five, seven, or eighty strands of spiritual energy. Just drink some 'spiritual spring water' when you get back and you can refine them..."
Li Changsheng was secretly delighted and quickly offered further advice.
"I don't follow the path of 'dual cultivation' (sexual cultivation), it's not that easy..."
Xu Yan rolled her eyes at him, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Five dishes."
Before Li Changsheng could speak, he hurriedly said:
"If you want to buy again, go find that slut Cuilian. She's easily swayed; if you're willing to spend spirit stones, she'll definitely sell to you..."
After saying that, he raised his hand and tapped lightly.
The air was filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms, and five streams of pink spiritual energy, like mist and gauze, flowed from her fingertips. Perhaps it was due to her previous tasting of "amorous energy," but as soon as she appeared, she transformed into five little figures, humming and doing some indescribable things.
Xu Yan, a seasoned veteran, remained calm and composed.
Although Li Changsheng had no practical experience, he had seen quite a few, both large and small. After only a glance, he said:
"Still the same price as last time, two and a half spirit stones per dish?..."
"Let's do as my husband says."
Xu Yan stared at Li Changsheng for a few moments, and seeing that his expression remained unchanged, she felt bored. She took the pill bottle he offered, filled three bottles in a row, and her face turned slightly pale. When he offered her another bottle, she quickly waved her hand and said:
"No, no, that's all I have..."
"Alright."
Li Changsheng put away the pill bottle with a regretful expression.
Xu Yan felt a sense of emptiness and didn't want to stay there any longer. She quickly took out the "emotional energy" she had purchased and deducted the spirit stones left after selling spiritual power and essence blood.
A total of 162 low-grade spirit stones.
Without lingering any longer, he picked up the wine jar, turned around, and left.
"I'll take this to Senior Sister Xu."
Li Changsheng suppressed the "Hehuan Spiritual Power" into his dantian, stood up with a smile, and escorted Xu Yan to the door. After watching Xu Yan's figure disappear, he glanced strangely at the next room, then turned and returned to the courtyard.
Arrived in the backyard.
Summon the "Love Flower" and "Soul-Capturing Wood" spirit seeds from the Life Pouch.
As soon as the two spiritual seeds landed, they quickly took root and sprouted, and in just a few breaths, they transformed into a state of lush foliage.
Li Changsheng gently touched the leaves of the "love flower" and stared at it intently.
Information has been obtained.
A smile played on his lips as he spoke softly:
"After five more days of rest, we can continue cultivating it..."
After each seedling bears fruit.
It is best to let them rest for about a month before continuing to cultivate them.
of course.
It can also be cultivated during the recovery period.
However, doing so would not only halve the effectiveness but could also potentially lead to uncontrollable damage.
After examining the "Love Flower," Li Changsheng turned and went to the "Soul-Capturing Wood" of his destiny.
Its size has not changed much.
However, the branches and leaves have delicate golden veins, which make it seem extraordinary at first glance.
He reached out and touched the leaf of the "Soul-Capturing Tree," staring intently at it.
[Transformation complete: 93% complete; estimated time: 15 years.]
"One more day..."
Li Changsheng circled around it, looking it over with anticipation.
"Transformation..."
Could it be a "Fairy Spirit" destiny seed...?
Thinking of what Manager Zhai had said, he took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, put away the panel, and took a few steps back.
Li Changsheng focused his mind on sensing his dantian, and after a few breaths, a small white space slowly appeared in his mind.
Two clusters of spiritual energy, each a vibrant green.
Five pink figures who are constantly on the move.
And a fluffy white cloud with a pale blue hue.
It was the "seed" formed from the intermediate-level technique "Minor Cloud and Rain Technique" that he cultivated, which ripened and fell into his dantian ten days ago.
Guided by his will.
Strands of spiritual energy were poured into the "Minor Cloud and Rain Technique" seed, and as the spiritual energy was poured in, the clouds slowly shimmered with a spiritual light.
Until the spiritual energy of a single energy cluster is exhausted.
"Show!"
Li Changsheng opened his eyes, raised his hand and pointed. A point of spiritual light flew out from his fingertip and quickly transformed into a cloud the size of a millstone in mid-air, full of spiritual light and tinged with blue.
Invisible moisture and spiritual energy converged.
In just a few breaths.
The cloud suddenly expanded to a diameter of about ten feet.
"fall!"
Li Changsheng felt the rainwater accumulating in the "clouds" and let out a soft shout.
There were no unusual phenomena or thunder.
The drizzling rain fell from the sky, landing on the branches and leaves of the life-sustaining plants "Love Flower" and "Soul-Capturing Wood." Its gentle, refreshing nature quickly revived the two somewhat withered plants.
I had a short meeting.
Until the two life-giving plants are thoroughly moistened.
"receive!"
Li Changsheng reached out and grabbed at the clouds.
The cloud, about ten feet in diameter, suddenly dispersed, wisps of mist drifting away with the wind. A stream of light fell directly down, merging into his palm, settling in his dantian, and manifesting as a pure white cloud with a hint of blue.
"Wait until the 'sacrificial field' ceremony is over."
"Then you can go and irrigate people's spirit fields to earn spirit stones."
"I hope it doesn't rain again..."
But once spirit stones are involved, intelligence quickly takes over the mind.
The two bargained several times.
