Plants vs. Cultivation.

Chapter 188: Level 4 Spiritual Field

"Sunlight Glazed Flower, after so many years, I finally see this spiritual plant again." After finishing the evaluation of Gu Mo's next door spiritual rice, several elders came directly to Gu Mo's booth.

Looking at the glass-like flowers, some elders couldn't help but sigh.

"Elder Gu, what do you think of this spiritual plant?" Hou Chunyu turned his gaze to Elder Gu standing aside.

"Superb!"

Elder Gu said without hesitation.

Although he had a bet with Hou Chunyu, Elder Gu, as a Yuanying Zhenjun, would not deliberately belittle the spiritual plants cultivated by his disciples.

"Then Elder Hou, please also comment on the roaring ancient tree." After saying this, Elder Gu waved his hand and directly moved the exhibition stand of his disciples not far away over.

"The new branch of the ancient war tree is undoubtedly of superior quality." Hou Chunyu nodded. Although this roaring ancient tree is still just a sapling, it does not affect its value.

This roaring ancient tree, more than ten meters tall, is just a sapling. A truly complete ancient war tree would be a behemoth that is at least hundreds of meters tall.

Both the Sunlight Glazed Flower and the Roaring Ancient Tree were of top quality, which made the other elders feel that this bet should end in a draw.

But Hou Chunyu and Elder Gu obviously did not want to give up, and both sides felt that they had a great chance of winning.

"Although they are both top-grade, I think the Sunlight Glass Flower is better." Hou Chunyu said. In terms of rarity, grade, and value, the Sunlight Glass Flower is better.

The Roaring Ancient Tree is just a small branch among the many ancient war trees, but the Sunlight Glazed Flower is unique, especially the power of the sun condensed by the Sunlight Glazed Flower, which is of immeasurable value.

Unfortunately, the Sunlight Glazed Flower is a tier-3 spiritual plant, and the solar power it condenses is also tier-3, so it has limited effect on tier-4 spiritual plants. But even with this tier-3 solar power, it has one-third the effect of tier-4 spiritual objects that promote the growth of spiritual plants.

Elder Gu obviously could not refute Hou Chunyu's words. They were all top spiritual plant masters and knew very well the effects of spiritual plants.

Elder Gu was not prepared to argue with Hou Chunyu about the preciousness of the two, because after he knew that Gu Mo exhibited the Sunlight Glazed Flower, he knew that his disciple's Roaring Ancient Tree was not as good as the Sunlight Glazed Flower.

Fortunately, he had a trick up his sleeve, otherwise he would have been in big trouble.

Immediately, Elder Gu gave his disciple a look. Seeing the master's eyes, the Jindan disciple who cultivated the roaring ancient tree immediately saluted to the elders.

"Disciple has another spiritual plant that matches the Roaring Ancient Tree. Please evaluate it, Elder!" After saying that, the Jindan disciple took out a new spiritual plant. The spiritual plant was a vine with morning glories blooming on it.

"This spiritual plant is called the Sound Gathering Vine. It can enhance the power of the Roaring Ancient Tree's sonic attacks, and it can also focus the power of the sonic waves to achieve the effect of a single attack." Following the Jindan disciple's introduction, everyone's eyes showed admiration.

The Roaring Ancient Tree combined with the Sound Gathering Vine is enough to raise the level of the Roaring Ancient Tree to a higher level.

"how?"

Elder Gu turned his gaze to Hou Chunyu.

"Elder Gu, isn't it a bit unfair to compare two spiritual plants with one spiritual plant?" Hou Chunyu raised his eyebrows.

“The spiritual plant exhibition doesn’t say that we can’t exhibit two kinds of spiritual plants. Moreover, these two are companion spiritual plants, so there’s no problem in treating them as one. Of course, since it’s fair competition, you can let your disciple bring out another spiritual plant.” Elder Gu smiled.

Since he dared to make a bet with Hou Chunyu, he was sure of winning. No matter what powerful spiritual plant Hou Chunyu's disciple took out, the Roaring Ancient Tree and the Sound-Gathering Vine could win.

"My dear disciple, do you have any other spiritual plants on hand?" Hou Chunyu's voice sounded in their ears. At this moment, Hou Chunyu had gradually come to his senses. He was actually tricked by the old man named Gu.

"Grandmaster, what's going on?" Gu Mo sent a puzzled voice. In Gu Mo's opinion, the excellent evaluation received in this spiritual plant exhibition was actually a complete merit. He just needed to wait until the end of the spiritual plant exhibition to receive the reward for the excellent evaluation.

At the same time, the Sunlight Glass Flower also appeared in front of everyone. Although it is inevitable that someone will come to buy the power of the sun in the future, it also provides a cover for Gu Mo to accidentally expose the essence of the sun in the future.

It can be said that Gu Mo has completed the task of this spiritual plant exhibition. However, looking at the master and the ancient elder, it seems that there is something else going on.

"Is such that……"

Hou Chunyu quickly told Gu Mo about the bet, "My dear disciple, if you can help Master win this bet, Master Mu Kui will be given to you, how about that?"

"Master, can I exchange it for other rewards?" Gu Mo's heart moved. Mu Kui was indeed a very precious treasure and it was the core material for refining a puppet incarnation.

Puppet incarnation is considered a relatively high-level incarnation, especially this Mu Kui, which has reached level 4. This means that Mu Kui can refine a puppet incarnation at the Nascent Soul level. This kind of incarnation has great appeal even to a Nascent Soul True Lord.

But for Gu Mo, this puppet incarnation has no appeal at all. The incarnation condensed by his supernatural powers is much stronger than this puppet incarnation.

"What reward do you want?"

Hou Chunyu was stunned when he heard Gu Mo's words, but then he was delighted. This kid actually dared to negotiate with him, which meant he was sure of it.

However, in order to defeat the opponent's Roaring Ancient Tree and the Gathering Sound Vine, even if Gu Mo has the Sunlight Glazed Flower as a base, the other spiritual plant cannot be too bad.

"Grandmaster, I want a 4th-level spiritual field!"

Gu Mo said without hesitation what he wanted most. Martial arts and treasures were not what Gu Mo wanted most. Only the high-level spiritual field was what Gu Mo desired most.

After all, for Gu Mo, only farming can make him stronger.

"Yes, but it's not a normal spiritual field." Hou Chunyu thought for a while and said. The sect does not allow spiritual field trading, but as an elder, Hou Chunyu can still find some loopholes to get Gu Mo a 4th-level spiritual field, but the area is not large, at most let Gu Mo experience it.

"no problem!"

Gu Mo nodded without hesitation. As long as it was a 4th-level spiritual field, it didn’t matter if it was small.

Seeing Gu Mo nod, Hou Chunyu's originally solemn expression suddenly brightened up, "My dear disciple, take out the spiritual plant you have hidden and show it to me."

"Yes!"

Gu Mo nodded, then took out a piece of tree stump.

Seeing Gu Mo take out a piece of tree stump, everyone was stunned, including Hou Chunyu who was also a little confused, but there was one exception.

That is Liu Shulan. Since obtaining Gu Mo's torch stump, Liu Shulan has been studying it. The more she studies, the more frightened she becomes.

She hadn't seen any flaws in this spiritual plant so far. Generally speaking, new spiritual plants artificially cultivated by spiritual plant masters would have some flaws. After all, which spiritual plant that grew naturally had not gone through millions of years of evolution to reach its current near-perfect state?

However, there is simply not enough time to verify the new spiritual plants cultivated by spiritual plant masters, so it is normal for some problems to arise.

But Gu Mo's torch tree stump was truly perfect, even more perfect than those naturally grown spiritual plants.

As Gu Mo took out the torch tree stump, Liu Shulan knew that Elder Gu had lost this time. Even without the Sunlight Glazed Flower, Gu Mo could win with just the torch tree stump.

"What is this?"

Elder Gu looked at the tree stump that Gu Mo took out. Even with his knowledge, he couldn't tell what kind of spiritual plant it was. If he couldn't feel the breath of life from the tree stump, Elder Gu would have thought that it was just a piece of dead wood.

"This is a spiritual plant that I accidentally cultivated. I call it the torch tree stump." Gu Mo began to introduce the torch tree stump.

Listening to Gu Mo's introduction, everyone's faces changed. This was a spiritual plant that was enough to transform alchemists and weapon refiners. Subconsciously, everyone turned their eyes to Liu Shulan, the alchemist elder, wanting to see Liu Shulan's reaction.

But what everyone saw was Liu Shulan with a calm expression. Upon seeing this, several elders suddenly realized that it was obvious that the other party had known about it for a long time.

"You kid, you actually told outsiders such an important matter and didn't even tell your master." Hou Chunyu said in a somewhat unhappy voice.

"Master, you don't have any use for this." Gu Mo was helpless.

Although this torch tree stump was stunning, its impact on the people present was not as great as that of the Sunlight Glazed Flower. After all, most of the people present were spiritual plant masters, and their desire for the torch tree stump was not that strong.

But when Gu Mo showed that the torch tree stump could carry strange fire, even the Shennong Valley disciples who didn't have much feeling for the torch tree stump were completely shocked.

Looking at the shocked expressions of the crowd, Liu Shulan suddenly felt relieved. The shock that she had experienced that year was finally felt by everyone.

"Come and get the wood yourself some other day."

After leaving a message to Hou Chunyu, Elder Gu took his disciples away. Because there was no need to argue any further.

At the same time, this spiritual plant exhibition also came to an end, and this spiritual plant exhibition will definitely be a topic of conversation among the disciples for a long time to come.

As for Gu Mo, he also became the focus of attention.

Especially the Sunlight Glazed Flower, many people wanted to ask Gu Mo to buy some of the power of the sun, but Gu Mo declined due to the production shortage.

However, Ding Shiyan, the cultivator of Sword Heart Bamboo, and Qu Feng, the cultivator of the semi-finished spiritual rice, met the two Gu Mos in person and gave them all the stocks of solar power they had.

This kind of solar power is of no use to Gu Mo. It is just a covert measure. Of course, if the trust between the two parties increases in the future, Gu Mo may provide the essence of the sun.

After all, Jianxinzhu Gu Mo was still in great need, and he also hoped that Senior Sister Ding could make up for Jianxinzhu's defects as soon as possible.

As for Qu Feng, he just invested in the other party because he liked him. It didn't matter if he failed, but if he succeeded, the returns would be extremely astonishing.

"Junior Brother Gu Mo, I will cultivate the Sword Heart Bamboo as soon as possible." After obtaining the power of the sun, Ding Shiyan couldn't help but smile.

Before coming here, she was worried about whether she could obtain the power of the sun. Unexpectedly, this junior brother valued her Sword Heart Bamboo so much, and it seemed that this junior brother was also quite knowledgeable about the way of the sword.

This made Ding Shiyan feel like she had found a confidant. After all, there were very few people practicing swordsmanship in Shennong Valley. It was difficult to find someone to discuss swordsmanship with, and she had to rely on her own comprehension to practice swordsmanship.

"I will wait for good news from Senior Sister Ding." Gu Mo said with a smile.

At the same time, Gu Mo couldn't help but marvel at Sister Ding's terrifying talent in swordsmanship. Without any guidance from anyone, she actually comprehended the meaning of sword, and her cultivation had even reached the great perfection of the golden elixir.

The killing power of a swordsman who has reached the great perfection of the Golden Core is terrifying. In addition, this Senior Sister Ding is also a spiritual plant master, and her attainments as a spiritual plant master are no weaker than those in swordsmanship. After all, this is Shennong Valley, which has a complete and powerful spiritual plant master heritage.

If Senior Sister Ding could focus all her attention on becoming a spiritual plant master, she would definitely be able to become a true disciple of Shennong Valley.

"Brother Gu Mo, I will also work hard." Compared with Ding Shiyan's confidence, Qu Feng was a little lacking in confidence. The plan he set was too grand and too difficult to achieve.

"Then I'll wait for your good news." Gu Mo encouraged with a smile. Although this Junior Brother Qu Feng was in the foundation-building stage, his talent was not weak, and it could even be said to be very outstanding, otherwise he would not have come up with the plan for the new spiritual rice.

And since joining Shennong Valley, this person has been studying spiritual plants and seldom goes out. This is why his mind is relatively simple.

It is relatively reassuring to get along with such people, but Gu Mo feels that it still takes time to build real trust.

After Ding Shiyan and Qu Feng left, another person came to Gu Mo's courtyard.

"Disciple greets Elder Liu!"

The one who came to find Gu Mo this time was Liu Shulan, and her purpose was naturally for the power of the sun. Liu Shulan wanted the power of the sun not to cultivate spiritual plants, but to refine pills.

The power of the sun is the most yang force, which has a strong restraining effect on yin energy and demonic energy. During the struggle between good and evil in the Tianyuan Realm, many cultivators were injured in the battles with the demons, and their bodies were eroded by the demonic energy, which was very difficult to resolve.

But if the power of the sun is used in conjunction with other spiritual medicines to refine the Yaoyang Pill, it can quickly dissolve the erosion of the demonic energy. Therefore, the value of the Sunlight Glazed Flower is still increasing.

"Elder Liu, I have run out of solar power." Gu Mo spread his hands helplessly. He had just given all his solar power to Ding Shiyan and Qu Feng, and he had no more on hand.

He can't possibly take out the essence of the sun, so we have to wait a little longer.

"It's okay. You are an alchemist anyway. This is the recipe for the Yaoyang Pill. You can make it yourself. The sect will buy it at a high price." Liu Shulan took out a pill recipe and handed it directly to Gu Mo.

"Thank you, Elder Liu!"

Gu Mo took the recipe with both hands. Such a pill that could dissolve evil spirits and negative energy was of self-evident value in the context of the struggle between good and evil.

"Okay, without your sun power, this pill recipe is just waste paper. When you have the sun power, send some to me." Liu Shulan waved her hand and left.

Lest someone think she's here to snatch someone away.

As soon as Liu Shulan left, Hou Chunyu appeared. Seeing his master Gu Mo, he couldn't help but get excited because he knew that his 4th-level spiritual field was coming.
