Chapter 303: Chapter 185: New Type of Spirit Plant, The Temptation of Knowledge_3 “This Spirit Plant is of great use to our Jiushan Realm!” Zheng Fa said with a smile. “Now our Jiushan Realm has a special environment, Thunder Skill is the utmost priority... This Spirit Plant, I fear, could aid our Jiushan Disciples in cultivating a Dharma Body related to thunder and lightning.” The power of thunder must not be underestimated. In the Xuanwei Realm, any cultivator practicing Thunder Skill must rely on spiritual materials to cultivate resistance to thunder and lightning — for instance, the role of Xuanlei Stone for the “Five Thunders Body.” However, most spiritual materials are quite expensive. Even in the Jiushan Realm, they are difficult for ordinary disciples to exchange for. “If this Spirit Plant can be as high-yielding as paddy and also provide a certain amount of Thunder Power like Xuanlei Stone, then it will be the most suitable thing for our Jiushan Sect’s lower-level disciples to cultivate their Dharma Body!” Hearing what Zheng Fa said, Master Qian’s expression immediately brightened. “Is that really so?” “Why would I lie to you, Master...” Zheng Fa said with a grin, “Even if people don’t like to eat it, it’s cheap and useful for cultivators who cultivate thunder and lightning Dharma Bodies, and it won’t sell poorly — it might even be sold to the Xuanwei Realm!” When everyone heard this, they all felt it made sense and their gaze towards the Spirit Plant changed once again. Master Qian thought the same, his expression becoming even happier, and he couldn’t help but murmur, “I thought... I thought...” Obviously too delighted to know what to say. “Master Qian, why don’t you name this new Spirit Plant?” Zheng Fa suggested with a smile. He was also quite pleased in his heart. For one thing, this new Spirit Plant was indeed useful. He had just felt the Thunder Power contained within the plant. There was no problem in cultivating the first level of the “Five Thunders Body” with it, and he even planned to see if he could continue to cultivate this type of Spirit Plant to create a variety that could hold even more Thunder Power, suitable for a higher level “Five Thunders Body.” On the other hand, this was the first successful modern scientific attempt in the Jiushan Realm — and it was an initiative taken spontaneously by Master Qian. This significance was what truly pleased Zheng Fa. “Me, name it?” Master Qian was taken aback. “Of course...” “Then... Then...” Master Qian hesitated for a moment, then as if an idea struck him, “Let’s call it Qianhe Valley... The Qianhe Sect has already perished, I hope this name can be passed down.” Everyone was stunned for a moment, their faces showing a bit of respect. Only the disciples behind Master Qian had a slightly strange expression, as if they thought of something... ... After studying the Qianhe Valley for a bit more, everyone discovered that after cooking, the Thunder Power within did not change much. This spirit grain did have its shortcomings — it did not contain much Spiritual Energy, especially compared to the mature spirit grains of the Xuanwei Realm, it was not as helpful for cultivation. Perhaps that was why Master Qian’s expression was so nervous before. “As long as this method is effective, there is always room for improvement in the future,” Zheng Fa consoled, “And even as it is now, it is extremely useful for our Jiushan Sect — in a few days, when Zhang has improved the Affairs Hall’s system, there will be a reward within the sect.” Master Qian couldn’t hide his joy upon hearing this: “No...” Zheng Fa didn’t mind his modesty and continued: “There are two cultivation directions for this Qianhe Valley, one is to reduce the Thunder Power and increase Spiritual Power — that’s toward cultivating it like a normal Spirit Plant.” “The other is to further increase the Thunder Power...” “You know the approach, right?” This stopped Master Qian in his tracks and he nodded repeatedly: “Master Zheng, the method is written in your book, I know.” Zheng Fa was even more pleased upon hearing this and looked at Master Qian, suddenly saying: “Master Qian...” “Yes?” “Thank you!” Zheng Fa said earnestly. Master Qian was startled, his past experience of greetings and farewells seemed to desert him at that moment. After Zheng Fa finished speaking, Zhang also smiled and nodded at Master Qian. Junior Master Pang even patted his shoulder with a grin and said “Good job”. After Zheng Fa and others took their leave, Master Qian still stood there with an inexplicable expression, seemingly a bit dazed. “Master...” His disciples looked at each other, not quite understanding what he was thinking, “Are you not happy?” “Happy?” Master Qian turned his head and said to them, “Of course, I’m happy!” “But you just now...” “I’m just thinking... Before, when I bent over backwards, faced humiliation, and constantly smiled to appease others...” Master Qian almost had an expression as if he were in another world, “I never saw any Nascent Soul master patting my shoulder and saying ‘not bad’ to me...” “Now that I stand tall, and no longer need to risk life and limb... Yet, I’ve received all these...” “...” After finishing, Master Qian turned around and walked towards the fields, humming a song to himself. His several disciples looked at each other, pondered their master’s words just now, and also turned to run towards the fields. The formerly tedious and dull farming tasks seemed to become full of hope when undertaken now. ... The Hundred Treasure Hall on the Heavenly Palace Island in the Jiushan Realm has now officially become the Affairs Hall. Currently, Zheng Fa hasn’t yet widely opened up mundane operations—it’s mainly Junior Master Huang and Yuan managing mundane affairs. But the Affairs Hall isn’t without tasks. Nowadays, the most common tasks are the construction of the Heavenly Palace Nine Islands—the speed of construction is not very fast because many Spiritual Talisman Magic spells cannot be used in the Jiushan Realm. Zhou Qianyuan followed his senior brother, Sun Daoyu, to the Affairs Hall, planning to pick up some more tasks in exchange for spiritual materials. Sun Daoyu said, “The Jiushan Realm is most suitable for Thunder Skill. My brothers and I should cooperate in more tasks and first cultivate a Dharma Body.” Zhou Qianyuan nodded in agreement, when suddenly a cry of surprise came from the Sealing God Hall in another side hall, “This is here too?” The two exchanged a look and headed towards the Sealing God Hall. Upon entering, they found a screen displaying dense text. “What’s going on?” Sun Daoyu asked curiously. “Zheng has come up with some sort of education outline, saying he’s planning to select students according to this outline and teach them Immortal Law.” Someone explained. “Then... why are they so excited?” Sun Daoyu pointed to a senior brother in front of them who was frantically scrolling through the screen, his fingers trembling. It wasn’t just him—other brothers on-site were whispering to each other, seemingly discussing something. “There are too many Immortal Laws listed up there...” “Hm?” “There’s ‘Talisman Dao Foundation Establishment Method’...” “Ah?” Sun Daoyu and the others exchanged a look, suddenly feeling that the seniors’ excitement was completely justified. The reputation of the “Talisman Dao Foundation Establishment Method” had grown along with Zheng Fa becoming stronger and stronger— Especially after Zhang broke through to Nascent Soul, making many people regard it as the top Foundation Establishment cultivation method of the Hundred Immortals Alliance. But this was Zhang’s exclusive Secret Technique, something others did not dare to covet. And now, it was placed in this so-called “education outline.” How could they not be excited? “There’s also the Sect Leader’s talisman formation skills...” “Master Pang’s Linked Talisman Technique...” “...” “Even heard there’s Core Formation secret techniques...” Zhou Qianyuan and Sun Daoyu both felt overwhelmed... They looked at each other, squeezed into the crowd, and after a long time reviewing the outline, they asked: “What does this course requirement mean?” It was Yang who spoke up, “I know, Zhang said that Zheng intends to hold a big examination... We’ll be assessed based on our scores to see if we meet the requirements.” “...” “Don’t know how exactly this examination will be...” “How to examine, is it harder than fighting desperately for our lives? We’re not afraid of death; why be afraid of an exam?” “You’re right!”
