I became an immortal by synthesizing plants.

The couple looked at the spirit stone on the ground, and then at the spot where Chen Qingshan had just been standing.

"Husband, have we encountered immortals?"

"Possibly."

The two silently collected the spirit stones and took them home. They then took out the remaining 15,000 spirit stones and placed them on the altar.

Since there wasn't enough room on the altar, it was moved to the room.

At this time, Chen Qingshan had already left Guiyang Town and headed to his next destination, the North Inner Sea.

There are seven towns around the North Inner Sea, two of which produce what Chen Qingshan needs.

Sea God Flower, Light Treasure Tree.

The Sea God Flower is just an ordinary spiritual plant that emits water-attribute spiritual energy, except that its flowers are more beautiful, with a bright red mixed with a little blue, and it is a variant of the camellia.

The Light Treasure Tree is a variant of the Zelkova tree. It doesn't have anything special about it, except that when it blooms, it emits a crystalline treasure aura that can be used for cultivation or forging.

The flowers of the Light Treasure Tree are of different colors, and each one is like a piece of jade, radiating a riot of colors.

It is as heavy as jade and its texture is relatively fragile.

Chen Qingshan collected both items simply to create a plant-themed dojo.

Upon arriving at Hainei Lake, Chen Qingshan glanced at the vast and unfathomably deep waters.

Right on the shore, there grow many sea goddess flowers.

However, these sea goddess flowers all grew in strange shapes and were not pretty.

Perhaps there were some beautiful ones, but they have all been dug up by the surrounding townspeople, leaving only these strangely shaped sea goddess flowers to reproduce and thrive.

The origin of the inner lake is also the transformation of the inner landscape of the fallen cultivators of the clan.

However, this is a divine body of the Great Dao of Water, the King Brown Divine Body.

Most of the blessed lands or wonders within the clan were formed from the fall of divine beings.

However, Chen Qingshan was puzzled as to why so many divine bodies in the clan had perished. From ancient times to the present, including himself and Chen Qinghuai who had successfully transformed, there had been more than a dozen, yet none of them had been able to reach the Golden Immortal realm.

However, Chen Qingshan quickly put this problem out of his mind.

Near the lake, the clear water on the shore and the water in the center of the lake are completely different colors.

The lakeside is a clear, lush, and vibrant landscape, while the center of the lake is azure with a clear blue sky and visibility reaching 50 meters.

Chen Qingshan dug up a few vibrant sea lilies. Although they weren't very pretty, at least they could reproduce.

At this moment, a young fisherman rowing a small wooden boat shouted loudly:

"Be careful, don't go near the lake!"

Chen Qingshan was a little confused and replied in a low voice, "What's wrong? Does this lake water eat people?"

"No, but the water is very deep; if you fall in, there's basically no chance of survival."

Chen Qingshan nodded and didn't say anything more to the fisherman.

Seeing Chen Qingshan's demeanor, the young fishermen lost their desire to meddle.

After digging up about thirty more sea god flowers by the lake, Chen Qingshan prepared to head to Qingbao Town.

As for the other towns, Chen Qingshan didn't bother going there. Those towns didn't have any special spiritual plants, so they weren't worth making a special trip for him.

Before arriving at Qingbao Town, one sees buildings everywhere that exude a dazzling, jewel-like aura.

Some were just small wooden houses, but they didn't look dilapidated at all.

Chen Qingshan saw that the residents inside all had happy and joyful smiles on their faces.

Countless Light Treasure Trees were planted in front of the town, many of which were already at the third or fourth level.

A third-tier Light Treasure Tree can produce one strand of treasure energy per year, while a fourth-tier one can produce three strands of treasure energy per year.

Although it's not very useful for cultivation, it's indispensable for crafting magnificent magical artifacts or building palaces.

As Chen Qingshan entered the town, many people turned their gazes toward him.

Several young and middle-aged people who were standing under the tree had already started to walk over.

They assumed Chen Qingshan had come to purchase precious energy to build palaces or magical artifacts.

"Young man, are you here to buy treasure energy? I have 10 strands of treasure energy here, and each strand is only worth 20,000 low-grade spirit stones."

"I have some too, I only need 1 low-grade spirit stones!"

"Stop arguing, all of you! Ask them if they're willing to buy!"

Several voices rang out one after another.

Upon hearing this, Chen Qingshan shook his head and said, "I came here to purchase the Light Treasure Tree. I wonder if you sell this?"

The group was taken aback for a moment, then their smiles widened.

"I have it! I have it! A first-tier one only costs 100,000 low-grade spirit stones," the middle-aged man in white said.

Chen Qingshan noticed that the middle-aged man had a name tag on his clothes, which seemed to be his name, Chen Qingyun.

The young people around him didn't have name tags, and Chen Qingshan didn't know why.

Moreover, all of them were cultivators, but their cultivation levels were not high; only one was at the Purple Mansion stage, while the other two were at the Qi Refining stage.

Chen Qingshan was a little surprised; the price of this Light Treasure Tree was a bit too high.

Although Chen Qingshan possessed an inexhaustible supply of raw stones, he didn't intend to use them in this way.

"Isn't this price a bit high? A first-tier Light Treasure Tree only costs 5000 contribution points to exchange within the clan, and a second-tier one only costs 10,000 contribution points."

"It's not expensive anymore. Contribution points are hard to obtain, but spirit stones are not."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qingshan shook his head and prepared to leave. After all, the Qingbao Tree Clan had plenty of treasures, and he could simply ask Ancestor Shanhe to send him some later.

As Chen Qingshan was about to leave, Chen Qingyun quickly stopped him, saying, "Young man, although this Qingbao tree is a bit expensive, we can guarantee that it is absolutely the best quality in our town!"

Chen Qingshan shook his head and prepared to leave; he didn't want to waste his money.

Seeing that Chen Qingshan was determined to leave, Chen Qingyun didn't say anything more.

After all, forced buying and selling is not allowed within the clan, and Chen Qingshan knows the price of the Light Treasure Tree well. No matter how much you try to persuade him, Chen Qingshan will not buy it.

Just as Chen Qingshan stepped out of Qingbao Town, the middle-aged man Chen Qingyun chased after him.

"Fifty thousand spirit stones per tree, fifty thousand it is!"

Chen Qingshan smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, take me to see it."

Chen Qingyun nodded and led Chen Qingshan toward the Qingbao Forest to the east of Qingbao Town.

As for Chen Qingyun's exorbitant price, Chen Qingshan didn't bother to investigate.

Soon, the two arrived at the Qingbao Forest.

Chen Qingshan noticed that the entire forest consisted of first-tier Light Treasure Trees, with not a single second-tier tree, and asked in confusion, "How come they're all first-tier, without a single second-tier tree?"

Chen Qingyun pointed to the town and replied, "The Light Treasure Trees that have advanced to the second tier have all been sent back to the town. Under the town mayor's arrangement, they have been planted around the town. This place is far away, making it difficult to manage, and we are also afraid of them being stolen."

Chen Qingshan nodded. Although the clan was cracking down on theft, there were too many people involved, and the clan had too few cultivators available to manage it.

Chen Qingshan randomly selected about 50 Qingbao trees.

These are all light treasure trees that have just advanced to the first tier. To advance to the second tier, unless they are carefully cared for or have sufficient resources, it will take them ten or twenty years.
