Chapter 642 - A Field Full Of Variant Plants (2/2)

“It’s rea… really variant spirit herbs!” The Sect Master looked wholly agitated.

“Not just that!” Another Nascent Soul cultivator said even more excitedly. “Look at that stem, seven colors on one leaf, that is an advanced spirit herb! And it is at least a second level one.”

“This is my first time seeing so many variant spirit herbs.” The Sect Master was so excited that his hands were trembling slightly as he quickly grabbed the steward who reported this. “He Fu, who did you say farmed this land?”

“Replying to Sect Master, it was an outer sect disciple named Zuo Shuming.” Steward He didn’t dare to hide anything and quickly answered with cupped fists.

Everyone then recovered from their agitation and looked towards Lonemoon and Zuo Shuming who stood by the side.

“Greetings Sect Master, Elders!” Both of them could only step forward and bow.

The Sect Master surveyed the both of them and finally locked his eyes on Zuo Shuming who had perfected the Qi Refinement stage. “You farmed these spirit herbs?!”

“Replying to Sect Master, I did it together with Brother Lonemoon.” Zuo Shuming answered.

“Mm.” A hint of admiration flashed through the Sect Master’s eyes, he doesn’t rush to put all the credit on himself, good prospects. “Do you know that variant spirit herbs have not appeared in my Gui Yi Sect for several thousands of years. Though these are low level ones, their effectiveness are already comparable to high level spirit herbs. Are you willing to hand in all of these spirit herbs to the sect?” He asked in a low voice, then added after some thought. “Of course we will reward you for them.”

Zuo Shuming looked back at Lonemoon, seeing that he had no intention of objecting, he then replied. “These spirit herbs were arranged to be planted by the sect in the first place. They should naturally be handed in to the sect.” Besides, he had yet to start learning about pill refinement, the spirit herbs were actually of no use to him.

“Good good good!” The sect master’s gaze became even more pleased. “I will calculate everything and pay spirit stones to both of you according to the market price. Both of your dispositions are not bad, from today onwards, you are official disciples and part of my main peak.”

Zuo Shuming was instantly delighted and was about to reply.

But Shu Yi from beside him panicked and cried out, “No!”

The Sect Master faltered, only noticing Shu Yi then. “Oh, Little Yi is here too! Why are you…”

He was about to ask when an urgent call sounded from above. “Where have the variant spirit herbs and advanced spirit herbs appeared!” In the next second, a figure carrying the Spirit Qi of the Soul Formation phase rushed over, instantly appearing beside everyone else.

“Greetings Uncle-Master Tian Yi!” The Nascent Souls all bowed. The person who came was the Soul Formation cultivator who almost took Zuo Shuming under his wing to the Dan Xia Mountain.

However Tian Yi ignored them all and instead turned to stare at the field of spirit herbs, murmuring with a look of disbelief. “It is extremely rare for variant spirit herbs to appear but so many has appeared here at once! And there are also advanced spirit herbs!”

He was wholly agitated, variant spirit herbs are precious not because of its effectiveness that was comparable to high-level spirit herbs but because they naturally came with a blending attribute and could blend other medicinal properties that could directly increase the success rate of refining pills by 10% whereas advanced spirit herbs could boost the effectiveness of elixirs and could be directly refined into supreme-grade elixirs.

“All these… who grew them?” As a Soul Formation Supremacy, even Tian Yi was finding it hard to conceal his inner agitation and quickly asked.

“It’s these two disciples.” The Sect Master pointed to Lonemoon and Zuo Shuming at the side.

Tian Yi turned and glanced at them both, his eyes fixed onto Zuo Shuming whose cultivation was of a slightly higher level as a hint of doubt flashed across his face. This disciple looked slightly familiar but he temporarily could not recall when he had seen him. He directly spoke up to snatch them up. “Good good good, from today onwards, you both can join my Dan Xia Mountain!” They grew variant spirit herbs once, who knows they might be able to do it again.

Once his words fell, the Sect Master did not say anything but Shu Yi panicked even more. “No way!” If Zuo Shuming went to Dan Xia Mountain, then everything that she had done previously would have been in vain.

“Little Yi is here too!” Tian Yi glanced at her. “Why not?”

“Because…” Shu Yi paled, her eyes shifted around before she replied, “Because… because earlier on sect master already ordered them to join the main peak.” Regardless, she absolutely could not allow Zuo Shuming to join Dan Xia Mountain.

“Oh! Really?” Tian Yi turned towards the Sect Master.

The Sect Master faltered for a moment, how would he dare to snatch with the Uncle-Master, but it had already come to this, he could only bite the bullet and nodded.
