Cultivation begins with planting techniques

"Fellow Daoist, can't this spiritual wood be any cheaper?"

A young monk asked with a troubled look on his face.

Li Ye looked helpless. "My fellow Daoist, you've been bargaining for a long time. I think it's quite conscientious that the price of this spiritual wood has been reduced to this level..."

"You keep bargaining, are you trying to make me sell you at a loss?"

"That's right, little brother, that's enough. How can our small business like setting up a stall withstand your bargaining like this!"

Even the middle-aged female cultivator who was setting up a stall nearby couldn't stand it anymore and said a few words.

The young man blushed, obviously knowing that his request was indeed a bit excessive.

He said quickly:

"Then... then this is the price! Fellow Daoist, could you share a few spiritual leaves with me..."

"Easy to say, easy to say..."

Li Ye nodded and handed over the small piece of spiritual wood that had been repeatedly looked at, along with a few leaves.

The young man counted again and again from his pocket before he finally took out enough talismans and handed them to Li Ye.

Seeing him walking away with a smile on his face, the middle-aged female cultivator who was chatting with Li Ye couldn't help but shake her head.

"I, Luo Sanniang, have been making a living in Qinghe Market for so many years, and it's rare to see such a stingy guy..."

"Fellow Daoist Li, even if you're young and thin-skinned, don't be so easygoing. It's really not worth it for these people to take away all the spiritual wood you worked so hard to get!"

Luo Sanniang advised Li Ye with a look of deep sorrow.

If it were her, there is no way she would have sold a piece of spiritual wood at that price.

Li Ye knew that she was probably putting herself in his shoes, so he smiled and replied:

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Luo, for your advice. From now on, I will stick to my bottom price and won't budge."

"That's how it should be!"

Luo Sanniang nodded with satisfaction.

Although she could somewhat identify with the situation, it was because Li Ye was young and handsome, and was really popular among people of her age, so she couldn't help but take care of him.

Otherwise, if it were someone else, she wouldn't say anything for no reason.

After collecting the talisman, Li Ye sat back on the stall, his eyes slightly wandering.

The main reason he set up a stall this time was to take advantage of the convenience of people coming and going and collect intelligence.

The items sold, apart from a few things that the evil old cultivator had no use for and had no special features, were mainly spiritual wood.

Its source is none other than.

It is the experimental product of Li Ye's combination of [Wooden Staff Technique] and Human Skin Blood Shadow Technique.

The materials used are actually ordinary trees.

But after consuming his magic power to solidify the effect of [Wooden Staff Technique], it actually improved its grade, making it transcend the mundane world and stabilized.

Even if the quality is not very high, it still has value.

These experimental products themselves have not reached the state that Li Ye would approve of, so it is just right to sell them. Other people can't see what's so special about them at all!

After setting up the stall for a few days, he managed to accumulate some wealth, no longer relying entirely on the evil old man's legacy.

However, as a result, some people have begun to indirectly inquire about the source of his wood, and he can vaguely sense the covetous gazes hidden in the crowd.

no way.

Although Li Ye's cultivation efficiency is quite good, his aura is only at the second level of Ju Yuan. Coupled with his young face, he has accumulated a small fortune this time. It would be abnormal if others did not set their sights on him.

But he didn't care.

What kind of expert could be able to target him?
After only a few days of serious practice, he was not far from breaking through to the third level. Holy Tree Walker was also able to continue to improve. With the two combined, he would not be at a disadvantage even when facing a fifth-level cultivator.

Those things are obviously not among them.

But during this period of time, he did not collect much information he wanted, and felt a little bored.

I've already made plans to leave.

After learning about the ancient Void Realm tree that was suspected to be similar to the All Realm Tree, he no longer rushed to plant the Void Realm Fruit and cultivate the Void Realm Tree in this world. After all, the synergy between the two Void Realm trees was far from enough to allow the one in the human world to advance, and the original body could not be reached in person, so there was no point in rushing to plant the tree.

But keeping the Void Realm Fruit not only preserves the freedom of action, but also preserves the possibility of using it as a medium to take over the poorly-conditioned Void Realm Ancient Tree for his own use.

Therefore, he still had to find a stable environment as soon as possible, start planting trees or raising spiritual beasts, so as to enter a state of rapid cultivation.

Although speculation about the runaway direct descendant of the Li family was profitable, it was not worth him wasting too much time on it.

If the Liu family makes other discoveries and starts a new round of searches, wouldn’t that be trouble again?

Just as I was thinking about it, another customer came to the stall.

Li Ye took a quick look and found that this person seemed to have undergone some disguise.

This man also looked like a young man. He stood in front of Li Ye and took a quick look at the things on the stall. Then he picked up a piece of spiritual wood and asked in a deep voice:

"How much is this wood worth?"

Li Ye simply quoted a price.

The man frowned slightly: "Can it be cheaper?"

"If it's any lower, I'm afraid there will be no profit. I hope you can forgive me."

Shaking his head, Li Ye said affirmatively.

This time, the other party just nodded and took out a stack of talismans and stuffed them over, then took the spiritual wood and turned away.

He didn't say a single unnecessary word.

"That's right! Be decisive in your dealings. Are you afraid that you won't be able to sell your products?"

Seeing that Li Ye had made another deal, Luo Sanniang said with a smile.

Li Ye also smiled and said, "It's all thanks to Brother Luo's guidance!"

While chatting and laughing, he slid his fingers and accurately pulled out the piece of paper that was sandwiched between the stack of talismans and put it into his sleeve.

………………

That night.

A few dozen miles away from Qinghefang City, in a forest.

Li Ye moved swiftly between the trees and arrived at a place shrouded in a thin mist.

His brows were furrowed, with a look of doubt and confusion on his face, as he looked around.

at this time.

A voice with suppressed arrogance came from the forest.

"Li Jue, a branch of the family...your father is Li Zixiu, and your mother is Li Zhang, right?"

"who?!"

Li Ye turned his head suddenly and looked towards the source of the sound, his posture immediately becoming alert.

Then several people came out accompanied by a young man dressed in brocade clothes, holding a folding fan, who seemed to be about the same age as Li Ye.

Among them was a man who looked like the man who went to his stall to buy spiritual wood during the day, but his appearance was very different. He was completely middle-aged.

The middle-aged man stared at Li Ye and immediately scolded:
"Don't panic... This time, it's Young Master Nineteen who summoned you. Li Jue, why don't you quickly bow!"

"Young Master Nineteen?!"

A look of doubt appeared on Li Ye's face, but after a moment of thought he became a little excited and was about to salute.

The nineteenth young master waved his folding fan.

"Hey! No need to be so polite!"

They walked a few steps to Li Ye. Young Master Nineteen seemed quite unhappy and said to the attendant:
"Now that our Li family has encountered great adversity, it is time to gather the strength of all the escaped disciples and rebuild our family..."

"We are all from the same clan, so there is no need to worry about these red tapes!"

"I know I was wrong!" the middle-aged man apologized quickly.

The Nineteenth Young Master nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Li Ye:
"I'm delighted to meet another member of my clan today! Li Jue, are you willing to join us and contribute to the revival of our clan?" (End of Chapter)
