Chapter 366 Peach Tree and Fire Spirit Fruit Tree

With the spatial teleportation array completed, Qi Ping took advantage of the time before the bee swarm's transformation to once again select the spiritual wood that had given birth to spirituality.

The earlier these spirit trees are selected, the more powerful beings they can nurture.

Moreover, cultivating spirit trees is much easier for Qi Ping than cultivating human cultivators.

All you need to do is find them, plant them on high-level spiritual land in the Qingyuan Mountains, and then inscribe spells suitable for them.

After completing these simple tasks, Qi Ping could simply wait for the spirit trees to grow rapidly and produce a large amount of resources.

With each accumulation of time, Qi Ping's wealth and the strength of the heavens and earth will increase to a higher level.

"This time, the number of spiritual woods that have given birth to spirituality is more than four times that of the first time!"

It took quite a bit of time, but when all these spirit trees appeared in the Qingyuan Mountains, Qi Ping was still shocked!
This achievement was completely beyond his expectations!
The reason for such a large harvest this time is that many rewards were given out the first time, which encouraged some hesitant people to join the army of planting spirit trees, causing the total number of spirit trees in the Azure Sky Domain to increase several times over.

Secondly, many of the spirit trees that were originally devoid of spirituality have begun to develop spirituality!
Of course, the most important reason is that Qi Ping collected most of the spirit tree seeds from the entire Star Sea Continent. After being selected by the Chang Qing and Chang E siblings, the number of trees that were born with spirituality was far higher than that from other places.

"Good good!"

"All my efforts were worthwhile!"

Looking at so many spiritual trees, Qi Ping was in an incredibly good mood.

If he wanted, these spirit trees would not only be his most important resource, but could also be his powerful treant warriors, all of whom would be able to cast spells!
The next period was a time of both pain and joy. After Qi Ping personally planted the spirit trees, he inscribed suitable spells on each tree according to its characteristics.

With the help of basic spells and advanced spiritual lands, they are growing at a rate far exceeding that of ordinary spiritual trees.

After completing the basic planting and spell imprinting work, Qi Ping began to inspect the other spirit trees he had cultivated previously.

After several years of growth, some of these spirit trees have begun to show their potential, unleashing a power far exceeding that of other spirit trees of the same period.

"Some of them are quite good-looking!"

Qi Ping observed and nodded frequently.

His training strategy proved to be correct.

After several years of growth, the differences between these spirit trees have become very obvious.

Some were only slightly better than other normally growing spirit trees, and these had the worst potential. However, some had already used the spells imprinted by Qi Ping to break through two levels of grade barriers in succession, showing extraordinary potential and spirituality, and their overall condition was also very good.

It's clear at this moment who has high potential and who has low potential.

Those who have just emerged and are ranked at the top are almost certain to achieve great things in the future.

Then Qi Ping selected the two most outstanding spiritual trees from among these trees and formed a tree spirit contract with them, making them his natal spiritual trees.

Both of these spiritual trees produce spiritual fruits.

One is a peach tree, and the other is a fire spirit fruit tree.

After two breakthroughs in rank, the potential of the two spiritual fruits has been fully revealed. Qi Ping is eager to see how far these two spiritual fruit trees will grow under his care.

You should know that these two spiritual fruits were selected from among thousands of spiritual trees, and they have the highest potential. They are almost comparable to the top human geniuses in the Star Sea Continent.

"Let's see how it goes. It's already pretty good!"

Qi Ping did not abandon or eliminate the spirit trees that were not selected for the time being.

Qi Ping felt that given enough time, some special spirit trees might emerge again.

Moreover, even though some spirit trees may not seem like much here, they are still among the best in the outside world. Once cultivated, their value is definitely not low, and they are extremely profitable to use for resource production!

After inspecting the growth of the spirit trees he had selected on a large scale for the first time, Qi Ping was quite satisfied.

At this rate of cultivation, it would only take a hundred years for him to cultivate a spirit tree that the entire Star Sea Continent combined could not match!
At that time, his profession as a tree shepherd will truly be well-deserved.

Only those who possess the most and strongest spirit wood in the world can be considered true tree shepherds!
However, after observing the growth of the spirit tree, Qi Ping did not end the matter. He saved the real highlight for last!
"A spirit tree with the potential to reach the immortal level!"

Qi Ping looked at the two spirit trees he had left behind, his eyes filled with excitement!

He went to great lengths to cultivate the spirit tree, all for the sake of this spirit tree with the potential to become an immortal! This is equivalent to the immortal spirit body of the human race!
Whether he can reach the Immortal level in the future is unknown, but his achievements will certainly be remarkable.

At this moment, on the Qingyuan Mountain Range, in a celestial land where the spiritual energy is almost so dense as to be condensed into liquid, amidst a patch of spiritual trees displaying various strange phenomena, stand two seemingly ordinary spiritual trees.

One of them was an ironwood tree that shone with a metallic luster, even its leaves were like metal.

It was as if it were shrouded in mist and rain, a rather unique plant, exuding a strong water-attribute spiritual energy.

The ironwood with metal attribute and the rain-covering tree with water attribute are the two spirit trees with the potential to become immortals that Qi Ping discovered this time. In Qi Ping's spirit tree forest, they are not particularly eye-catching at the moment.

Among them, Tie Mu was a rogue cultivator from Starfall City, and happened to be a follower of Qi Ping's faith. Qi Ping not only gave him a more generous reward, but also bestowed upon him the blessing of mountains and rivers, and granted him the treatment of a special disciple of Qingyuan Academy.

As for the spirit tree, it came from the siblings Chang Qing and Chang E. With a large number of spirit seeds provided by Qi Ping, and their special talents, it was within Qi Ping's expectations that they could find some special immortal-grade spirit trees among them.

"With these two spirit trees, I now possess the three attributes of metal, water, and lightning. To gather all three attributes in such a short time is quite efficient! And this doesn't even include the peach tree and the fire spirit fruit tree."

"At this rate, I estimate that my spirit tree cultivation plan will be fully effective within a hundred years!"

Qi Ping was quite satisfied with this collection speed.

Without further delay, Qi Ping immediately researched the most suitable engraving spells and special spiritual energy gathering formations based on the characteristics of the ironwood and the rain-covered tree. He also arranged for a large amount of ore and water-attribute spiritual objects to accelerate the growth of the two spiritual trees.

The first potential immortal-grade spirit tree, Azure Thunder Bamboo, has grown to the late stage of the second tier in just a few years thanks to the accumulation of massive resources and the tempering of compatible spells. Its azure bamboo body has now completely turned purple, and the speed is incredible. It is not far from breaking through to the third tier.

The advantage of the Spirit Tree's rapid growth also became apparent during this process.

Therefore, Qi Ping could predict that these spiritual trees would be able to quickly catch up with his cultivation level in a very short time, becoming an important aid for his future cultivation and breakthroughs.

"It'll be soon! The true power of the spirit wood will soon be fully unleashed!"

Qi Ping is now quite certain that once his spirit wood is truly cultivated, it will absolutely become a force that influences the格局 (geju, a term encompassing overall situation, overall structure, and overall dynamics) of the Star Sea Continent, and it's not impossible that it will even influence the格局 (geju) of the cultivation world in the future.
