The panel prompts appeared in front of his eyes, and Li Ye was calm and familiar with it.

Since Deng Tiancheng came to visit
Although he was working in the fields, with his current level of cultivation, many of his methods could be replaced by magic. He no longer had to bend over and work in the fields like an old farmer as he did during the Qi training stage.

Finally, he has a somewhat immortal and elegant demeanor.

However, even though he was like this, the group of Qi-cultivating monks who had heard the news but had not received any orders and could only watch from afar were extremely nervous.

Looking at the crops in the fields is even more frightening.

The hemolytic flower is extremely gorgeous. Although it is only a seedling, it looks like it is made of blood, emitting a faint blood-colored mist. When it comes into contact with the formation restrictions, it even has a subtle corrosive effect, making a sizzling sound.

Although the withered bone grass looked ordinary, it looked like white bones stuck in the ridges of the fields, surrounded by a gloomy and sinister aura.

These two are obviously not ordinary spiritual plants... maybe they are something that contains deadly poison!
Originally, seeing the leader coming, perhaps they had a chance to curry favor with him and seek a better place.

But the leader actually planted such dangerous spiritual plants here. If anything unexpected happens, won’t they all suffer?

However, such matters are not determined by their worries.

The number of these two spiritual plants that the monk sold to Li Ye was only about a hundred each, and their conditions were different.

It looked as if it was picked hastily from somewhere, perhaps obtained together with the pill recipe from a senior's cave somewhere.

Like other spiritual plants currently planted, they need to be carefully cultivated and divided several times before they can fill the fields.

"However, these poisonous flowers and weeds are much stronger and more durable than other spiritual plants. They don't need to be cared for every day. Just come and check on them regularly for supplies..."

Clapping his hands, Li Ye walked out of the field and made some slight adjustments to the formation covering the two acres of spiritual fields.

He then looked at the group of Qi-cultivating monks who were waiting cautiously in the distance.

"Who here has the best spiritual plant skills?"

The group of people looked at each other, and no one dared to show up for a while.

If it was taking care of other spiritual plants, it would be fine, it would be a great opportunity anyway, but these two spiritual plants in the field are clearly poisonous flowers and weeds, they can take people's lives!

Just considering these Qi-cultivating cultivators, if they are not careful, they will be poisoned to death on the spot by this second-level poison!

You have the life to fight for such an opportunity, but you are afraid that you may not have the life to enjoy it!
However, this made the deacon in charge of the Dengjin Mountain Spiritual Field affairs a little anxious.

He immediately stepped forward and saluted Li Ye.
"Reporting to the leader, among all the spiritual farmers here, Niu Hai has the highest attainments in spiritual plant cultivation, and is now close to the second level!"

As he spoke, he pointed out a middle-aged man who was a little reserved.

Niu Hai's face showed some panic and helplessness, but he still immediately saluted Li Ye.

When the other spiritual farmers saw him being singled out, some immediately showed worry, some gloated, and some were jealous.

They were afraid of the poisonous weeds and dared not go forward, but they couldn't bear to see Niu Hai show up in front of Li Ye.

"Niu Hai, I'm going to ask you a few questions, and you must answer them truthfully..."

Li Ye glanced at the spiritual farmers in front of him, taking in their many emotions, and spoke lightly.

Niu Hai immediately said: "I will tell you everything I know!"

Then Li Ye picked up a few top-level first-grade and second-grade spiritual plants and asked questions about them.

Although Niu Hai was afraid that Li Ye would assign him to take care of the spiritual field, he did not dare to hide anything.

He used all his knowledge to answer Li Ye's questions one by one. "Your attainments are indeed approaching the second level..."

Li Ye nodded with satisfaction, and handed a jade slip to the man.

"This is how to care for the hemolytic flower and the bone-depleting grass. Take them and take a good look at them..."

"They are poisonous flowers and weeds. You don't need to look after them. Just come here every day to assess their condition through the formation. If there are any abnormalities, report them to me immediately... It's like adding another job and an extra reward!"

"But if your negligence causes any problems with the flowers and plants, I will hold you accountable!"

When Niu Hai took the jade slip, he felt a little bitter. He felt that even if there were any benefits, he might not be able to withstand the risk of serving poisonous flowers and plants.

Seeing this, several spiritual farmers who harbored malicious intentions felt even more gloating, and even their jealousy faded away.

But when they heard that there was no need to watch over it and they only had to observe from across the formation, everyone present was stunned.

And such good things? !
A look of joy appeared on Niu Hai's face. He bowed deeply and shouted loudly: "Little Niu Hai will definitely live up to the trust of the leader!"

Now, those who were watching the show and gloating over the misfortune could hardly keep their composure and their faces were almost distorted.

Li Ye naturally had no intention of caring about the affairs of the spiritual farmers. He gave a few instructions to the deacon who was in charge of the spiritual fields here, and then disappeared like a blue cloud.

Only Niu Hai was left smiling foolishly amid the congratulations of the spiritual farmers, some sincere and some fake.

………………

[The fourth-tier spiritual plant [Jianmu subspecies·Sky Realm Tree Strain] that you are connected to has grown, its understanding has deepened, and its spiritual essence has solidified by +0.1%...]
[......]
Sitting cross-legged under the tree, Li Ye experienced the feeling of observing the world from the perspective of the Sky Tree while his connection was briefly enhanced.

Consciousness quickly came out of it and returned to normal.

Li Ye looked puzzled. "Hmm...Have you completely digested Quan Chaoliang's legacy?"

Li Ye has almost gotten used to using multiple foundation-building cultivators as fertilizers, exchanging them for the growth of the Sky Realm Tree's foundation, and thus accelerating the solidification of his spiritual essence!
As his mind was moved, the cultivation he had accumulated for a long time finally made substantial progress.

As his magic power began to flow, two spirit stones appeared in Li Ye's hands, and pure spiritual energy gathered.

In his Dantian, ten drops of liquid mana were faintly vibrating. The spiritual energy surrounding them was constantly transforming, and a new drop of liquid mana was condensed.

"My cultivation is on the right track. Although I haven't started refining pills yet, I've finally made some substantial progress..."

A look of joy appeared on Li Ye's face, and he immersed himself in practice to consolidate his achievements.

…………

A few days later.

A humanoid puppet stood upright, its body mainly red and yellow, and each part of its body had obviously been strengthened significantly compared to before.

Faintly, there was a burning fire coming out of the body.

"I didn't expect that I could easily fill up the remaining proficiency in puppetry and raise it to the second level without even using any experience points, relying solely on my own research..."

Li Ye looked at the freshly made puppet and felt a sense of accomplishment.

"Using the Foundation Establishment Fire Beast crystal core as its core, this puppet can fully exert its combat power in the lava underground palace, and its own structure can also withstand the power of the battle formation..."

"We just need to deduce and upgrade the other puppet components to the second level... Then we can use a stronger team than ever before to explore the depths of the lava underground palace!"
