Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 323: All Level
Although Li Ye acted so confidently, and had the reputation of selling puppets in the past, his skills should not be too bad no matter how good they were.

But why did he want to take away a piece of purple jade that could be used as the main material for refining weapons from him just by asking? Although Xue Chou wanted to verify Li Ye's attainments in refining weapons, he was really reluctant to do so.

The mineral vein he seized was quite poor, and the final output would probably not be much, but each piece of it was of great value.

If Li Ye fails to refine the weapon and wastes his precious spiritual materials, how can he seek justice?
"It seems that fellow Daoist is still a little reluctant..."

Li Ye casually said, "I also need to buy some purple jade for my own use. Would you be willing to sell me two pieces?"

"But if this magic weapon is refined, I can sell it on your behalf. I can only give you a small share of your hard work."

He spoke in a joking tone, and Xue Chou felt that he was being a little too petty.

It's just a piece of purple jade. With the confidence shown by Li Ye, if he really destroyed it, would he not pay some compensation?

Xue Chou immediately waved his hands, "Hahahaha! Fellow Daoist Li, you're joking. I know your puppet-making skills very well, so how bad can your weapon-making skills be?"

"Brother Daoist, take this Purple Jade and give it a try!"

As he spoke, he slapped the brocade bag on his waist, and a purple jade with mountain patterns on it flew towards Li Ye.

Taking the precious jade in his hand, Li Ye looked at it carefully for a moment, then nodded with satisfaction.

"The jade is smooth and the mountain patterns are clear...it's indeed of excellent quality!"

"In that case, please rest for a while. No one else has moved into the cave you lived in last time..."

As Li Ye spoke, he called Luo Feibai to accompany him.

Originally, his friendship with Li Ye was limited, and the reason he was able to return to the barren land of the Four Kingdoms' Immortal Cultivation World was because the puppets Li Ye sold were indeed useful, and he also wanted to gain more benefits from him.

Naturally, there is no need for further greetings.

It would be in his best interest to determine Li Ye's skill in refining weapons as soon as possible, so he would naturally be happy to see it happen.

"Then I will wait for news from you, fellow Taoist!"

He forced a slight smile at Li Ye, then left the table accompanied by Luo Feibai and headed towards the cave where he had lived before.

Li Ye sat back in his seat, drank by himself, and watched Xue Chou's movements through the formation. He saw that he was quite honest along the way and did not say anything to Luo Fei.

After entering the cave, there was no further movement, and he seemed quite peaceful.

Although this person came for Li Ye's craftsmanship from the beginning to the end, he still had to be on guard against him.

Leaving his natal puppet waiting outside, Li Ye chuckled, picked up the purple jade, and appeared in the weapon refining hall in a flash.

He picked up the purple jade and examined it carefully.

"This item is earth-based. It appears gentle but is actually quite rigid. Adding it to any magical weapon can add a bit of hardness. It's also an excellent choice as the main material..."

"With this size and properties, it's perfect for making a flying sword!"

As his skills in differentiating and manipulating his spiritual consciousness became more and more sophisticated, Li Ye always had ideas about a complete set of magic weapons. Naturally, he studied the method of refining flying swords, which accounted for the majority of the complete set of magic weapons.

It’s just that there is no type of martial arts that suits me. No matter how much I study, I can only think about it from time to time to entertain myself.

But now, the assignment of refining a magic flying sword based on spiritual materials was extremely easy for him. He made the corresponding choice after a few thoughts.

After all, his current weapon-refining skills have greatly improved compared to when he first refined the Wooden God Cauldron!
As his thoughts turned, Li Ye casually opened the panel.

……

During these years of farming and practicing, he gained a huge amount of experience points, which was enough to push his skills to the upper third level.

His planting skills have even reached the lower fourth level, which is enough for him to make the best use of the third-level spiritual plants he obtained.

Even if you are lucky enough to trigger the [Tongtian] of the third-level spiritual plant in your hand, there are still ways to try to cultivate one or two.

To be honest, if the experience points required to advance these skills to the fourth level were not so huge, almost taking ten years to accumulate, he might have chosen to specialize in one first.

In fact, before he set off for the southern border countries, his demand for fourth-level skills was actually limited.

This comprehensive improvement option will benefit his practice more.

Not to mention refining weapons and pills, even the less frequently used arts of talismans and poisons are quite useful in caring for spirit fields and coordinating puppet refining.

Especially in the art of Gu, Li Ye has accumulated a large number of wood-type Gu insects over the years, and now he has obtained the demon Gu branch.

When this spiritual plant matures, he can try to refine the poisonous insect that he has been planning for a long time.

After collecting his thoughts, Li Ye released several spells to activate the formation in front of him.

boom--

The earth fire was drawn, and the surrounding spiritual power gathered. As the formation was running, the fire power rose layer by layer, reaching the third level.

After reaching the third level of formation, Li Ye finally had a way to steadily increase the firepower required for alchemy and refining. Combining it with a related formation in the Tiangong Sutra, he deduced the firepower formation he is using now.

It is stable and can be adjusted at will. Except that there is still a limit and it is a little difficult to deal with third-grade high-quality materials, it is already quite easy to use!

As his thoughts turned, Li Ye looked relaxed. He threw the purple jade directly into the furnace and began to calcine it carefully.

At the same time, the ring on his hand flickered slightly, and immediately more than ten different spiritual materials flew out and began to be processed at the same time.

With Li Ye's Qiannian Yanshen Jue and attainments in refining equipment, it was very simple to multitask and handle multiple steps at the same time. It was enough to greatly shorten the refining time and save a lot of effort and material loss.

It is precisely because of his profound skills that he has enough confidence to handle the transaction with Xue Chou with ease.

"Well... not only is it just right, there's even some left over to cover my losses!"

Li Ye laughed heartily.

With his current attainments and the inheritance of the Tiangong Sutra, it would not be too easy for him to withhold some of the main materials while maintaining the power level of the magic weapon.

In this way, as long as he can achieve stable cooperation, he will be able to accumulate a lot of purple jade sooner or later.

Knowing that Xue Chou would manipulate the distribution of benefits, Li Ye did this just to earn back his due share!
