Dao Seed Immortal Lord

The young man took the harvest from the Qiankun bag, then put in the seeds Li Bai needed and handed them to him: "Next."

In just over half an hour, all the spoils from Peach Blossom Village had been collected.

The two Liuyun Sect disciples did not linger. With a wave of their hands, their flying swords soared through the air. The two leaped up and landed on the flying swords. Accompanied by flashing immortal light, they transformed into two streaks of light and disappeared into the distant mountains.

The crowd looked on with longing and awe, and only dispersed after a long while.

Standing beside Li Bai, Old He looked at the several elderly servants being persuaded to retire, his expression complex, and sighed softly, "My time will come soon too."

Upon hearing this, Li Bai chuckled and said, "Old He, if you leave, you can pass on the contribution points you've accumulated to me. I'll work hard and I'm sure I can fulfill your last wish of joining the Flowing Cloud Sect."

Old He glared at him and said irritably, "I'm just about to leave, not about to die. Get lost, kid."

After a pause, Old He looked at Li Bai intently and said in a low voice, "You've improved a lot in the past year or so, which shows your talent isn't bad. You're not far from truly mastering the basics, are you?"

"If you can really master the basics within the next year or two, then you might actually have a chance to break through to the third level of the Qi Refining Realm and even attempt the trial mission to advance to the level of a beginner disciple."

His words revealed a hint of envy and sigh, envying Li Bai's youth and lamenting the arduous path to immortality, as difficult as ascending to heaven.

After pondering for a moment, Old He glanced at Li Bai, then looked around, and whispered to him, "Come to my place later, I have something for you."

Li Bai was taken aback, wondering why Old He was acting so suspiciously.

What is so hidden?

He nodded and followed Lao He to his home.

It's a small wooden house with a courtyard, built mainly from the trees of the surrounding mountains. One house is used as a dwelling, another as a kitchen, and there are also a latrine and a storage room.

Besides that, there was a small courtyard enclosed by a fence in front of the gate.

It's not big, and it's quite ordinary.

Yet it possesses a certain elegance reminiscent of the tranquil Nanshan Mountains.

Following Lao He into the house, Lao He closed the door, then went to a corner of the house, carefully moved aside a fence, and took out a flower pot from inside.

On the flowerpot, there grew a spiritual plant, about three feet tall, radiating a faint light, and with four leaves.

Around the spiritual plant, even more spiritual energy from heaven and earth gathered, seemingly drawn by this spiritual plant.

Old He moved the flowerpot to the table, pushed it towards the dumbfounded Li Bai, and calmly said, "I've been cultivating this Qi-refining grass for over thirty years; it's considered top-grade. You can take it."

Li Bai's heart skipped a beat, and he stared blankly at Old He for a long time: "Old He, you..."

Old He looked at him and said, "Your talent is not bad, but the path of cultivation is about seizing every second. One step behind leads to many more. Even if you had broken through to the third level of the Qi Refining Realm a year earlier, your chances of entering the outer sect of the Flowing Cloud Sect would have been much greater."

"After spending the past year or two together, I can see that you are not a bad person. We've been chatting for so long, so consider this Qi-refining grass my gift to you. May your path to immortality be smooth."

After a moment's hesitation, Old He took something out of his Qiankun bag.

He stretched out a hand in front of Li Bai, and on his palm was a seed the size of a black grape seed.

However, this seed was rather strange, with an extremely weak aura, seemingly just a dead seed.

However, upon closer inspection, one can still sense a faint yet extremely sharp aura emanating from this seed.

"What is this?" Li Bai frowned slightly and looked at Lao He with a puzzled expression.

Old He shook his head and said, "This was obtained by chance. I don't know what kind of spiritual seed it is, but I can sense that this spiritual seed is not simple. However, I have tried to cultivate it for a long time and used all kinds of methods, but I still haven't been able to make it sprout."

"I won't be staying in Peach Blossom Village for long. If I really have to leave Peach Blossom Village and return to the mortal world, this spirit seed will be useless to me if I take it back. So, I'll give it to you as well."

Looking at the over thirty-year-old superior Qi-refining grass and the wondrous seed, Li Bai took a deep breath, bowed to Old He, and said, "Old He, rest assured, if one day I can enter the outer sect of the Flowing Cloud Sect and become a disciple of the Flowing Cloud Sect, I will never forget today's kindness and will definitely come to your door to express my gratitude."

Seeing this, Old He nodded in satisfaction and said, "I'll pass. But if that day ever comes, then you can see if any of my mortal juniors are capable of mentoring any promising young talents."

"I would be content if I could give them some guidance."

After leaving Lao He's place, Li Bai hurried back to his residence.

It is a simple wooden house.

There wasn't a unique fenced courtyard like Old He's.

However, it is sufficient for sheltering from the wind and rain and for daily rest.

Once inside the room and closed the door, Li Bai stared intently at the Qi-refining grass on the flowerpot in his hand, his heart filled with excitement: "I never expected Old He to have such a treasure hidden away, a Qi-refining grass from over thirty years ago, tsk tsk tsk."

After searching the area around the wooden house with his divine sense, he found no one coveting it.

Li Bai immediately had a thought, and his figure disappeared from the wooden house.

hum.

On one side, in a cave of about ten square meters, Li Bai's figure appeared. In front of him was a spiritual field of about thirteen square meters. Most of the field was planted with low-grade spiritual rice, which had already turned golden and was not far from ripening.

In one corner of the spirit field, he also planted six Qi-refining grasses that he had obtained by exchanging contribution points.

Three of them were planted after one year and three months, and three were planted after about half a year.

This is a treasure that accompanied Li Bai through time travel, a blessed land within the Tai Xuan Immortal Mirror.

At first, Li Bai didn't realize that this cave was anything special. Time was the same as the outside world, and even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was just as thin.

However, when Li Bai planted a small amount of low-grade spiritual rice here, and the rice matured and was harvested, the Tai Xuan Immortal Mirror absorbed and refined the essence of the low-grade spiritual rice, allowing Li Bai to obtain a [Photosynthesis Dao Seed].

It was only then that he realized the extraordinary nature of the Tai Xuan Immortal Mirror.

[Photosynthetic Dao Seed: A low-grade, first-tier Dao Seed that can spontaneously photosynthesize under sunlight to synthesize pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Ten Photosynthetic Dao Seeds can be combined to create a mid-grade, first-tier Dao Seed...]

Having obtained the Photosynthesis Dao Seed, and with the help of the spiritual energy synthesized from it, Li Bai was able to condense a few more strands of magical power every day.

Now, more than a year has passed, and Li Bai has harvested five batches of low-grade spiritual rice in the Tai Xuan Immortal Mirror, obtaining seven photosynthetic Dao Seeds. Counting the photosynthetic Dao Seeds he initially obtained, he is still two short of synthesizing a first-order mid-grade Dao Seed.

In addition to the photosynthetic Dao Seeds obtained from the low-grade spiritual rice, Li Bai also planted Qi-refining grass here.

More than half a year ago, he harvested a Qi-refining grass that his predecessor had planted and had it consumed and refined by the Tai Xuan Immortal Mirror.

Li Bai successfully obtained a [Qi Refining Dao Seed] from the Qi Refining Herb Source. The effect of this Qi Refining Dao Seed is almost comparable to taking a first-grade low-level Qi Refining Pill every day for cultivation, which is the fundamental reason for Li Bai's great progress in cultivation these days.

[Qi Refining Seed: A low-grade, first-tier seed that increases Qi refining effects by 20%. Ten Qi Refining Seeds can be combined to create a mid-grade, first-tier seed...]

Li Bai's thoughts lingered deep within his mind.

Two orbs of Dao seeds, shrouded in a faint white light, could be seen rising and falling.

He took a deep breath and his burning gaze fell on the top-grade Qi-refining grass in the flower plate in his hand. If it were just a top-grade Qi-refining grass, it might only allow him to condense ten or twenty more strands of magic power, which wouldn't make him so excited.

But if the Tai Xuan Immortal Mirror were to devour and refine this top-grade Qi-refining herb, would it be possible for it to obtain a Dao Seed of even higher quality?

What effect will that seed have?
