Cultivation begins with harvest.

"The Qingheng Sect is indeed very practical in its work."

Chen Guang muttered to himself.

Seeing that Chen Guang had no objections, Senior Brother Zhang from Xingfeng Hall took out a golden needle and said, "Next, we will verify whether what you are cultivating is the Blood Scripture. If you have anything else you want to show, you can start now. We will reassess your fortune level based on your specific performance."

Chen Guang knew that it referred to the pure spiritual energy within him.

Although the pure spiritual energy was within his own body, it caused a refreshing atmosphere around him, which was so obvious that it could not be hidden from these people, thus becoming an added advantage.

Chen Guang stuck to his previous idea—some things could be exposed, and some things could not.

Although suddenly producing a complete stream of pure spiritual energy was like doing a somersault on the edge of a cliff.

But if you really investigate, when Jiang Zuoyun looked at the oily cloud soil he had hidden, his secrets were exposed. Putting himself in their shoes, if he were the Qingheng Sect and really wanted to do something, it wouldn't matter what Chen Guang did; it would be better to follow their rules.

I reckon it's because of the pure spiritual energy that my fortune level is considered above average in their eyes.

This conclusion both relieved and surprised Chen Guang.

A complete stream of pure spiritual energy is extremely rare, but in the eyes of these people, even with the addition of a copy of the "Blood Scripture" and some superficial items like He Shou Wu seeds, it is only considered to be of medium to high quality.

What does the highest level of good fortune look like?

"I'm ready." Chen Guang held out his palm.

Senior Brother Zhang took out a golden needle and pricked Chen Guang's hand. A drop of incredibly bright red blood appeared at the tip of the needle, trembling slightly.

"It condenses without dissipating, and even after leaving the physical body, it retains some activity and vitality. It is undoubtedly the Blood Refining Scripture, and it has achieved some success." Senior Brother Zhang showed the golden needles to everyone. The Blood Refining Scripture is specially designed to refine blood, which is why it has such a special quality.

After everyone confirmed, Senior Brother Zhang put away his golden needles, took out a booklet, and scribbled something down. He then handed the booklet to Senior Brother He of the Earth Hall, and to Elder Zhou of the Sage Hall. Even the deacons of the two branch buildings had copies, and everyone signed them. Finally, the booklet was turned to Chen Guang: "This information will be made public when necessary. Since only Lu Daxian and Cao Fang were present yesterday, their information was relatively superficial, so we can temporarily set it aside. If any false rumors circulate, we can quickly trace the source of the messages. Please confirm what needs to be erased?"

Chen Guang took a closer look.

The Blood Sutra, the Blood-He Shou Wu seed, and even a complete wisp of pure spiritual energy, along with the special spiritual fluctuations in a certain room in the courtyard, are all recorded in it. The final conclusion is: "It is suspected that they have obtained the legacy of a late-stage Body Refinement cultivator (equivalent to a late-stage Qi Refinement cultivator who mainly cultivates the body), or a storage-type spiritual artifact that is good at hiding. In addition, the spiritual items that have been exposed are roughly equivalent to the wealth of a late-stage Body Refinement cultivator. This can be rated as a medium to high fortune. However, because their intention to hide and their resistance are quite obvious, although they can cooperate after persuasion, their loyalty to the Qingheng Sect must be carefully considered when making decisions."

'Sure enough, as long as I don't say anything, they'll fill in the blanks for me and make things seem reasonable, even explaining the differences I might reveal next.' Chen Guang thought to himself with a smug smile.

But upon seeing the last two sentences, Chen Guang couldn't help but ask, "Was it really necessary for me to see this?"

"Our Qingheng Sect has always operated an official office for official business," Senior Brother Zhang nodded firmly. "You can delete or conceal the preceding information as you wish, but for the final conclusion, we can only add to it, not modify it. And you must have it approved. Rest assured, if any rumors or gossip circulate about anything you don't want to be exposed, we, the signatories, will bear the primary responsibility."

Chen Guang remained silent.

There's this feeling that I have privacy, yet I don't have enough privacy.

"I'll sign." Chen Guang had nothing else to complain about and quickly signed. "Excuse me, senior brother, can all my requests be fulfilled as long as they are within six thousand catties of spirit rice?"

Senior Brother Zhang nodded and said, "That's natural. For the part that cannot be fulfilled, it will be delivered to you in the form of spirit rice. For example, if you requested many things of the same type, but ended up with only a few dozen kilograms of spirit rice left, or if your request cannot be met and you have no other requests, this will be done. However, we cannot accept you adding more bargaining chips to achieve higher demands."

"I see."

Chen Guang nodded.

Just as Chen Guang was about to speak, Senior Brother Zhang slowly said, "This record is an assessment of part of your potential. It can only prove that you have potential, but it cannot grant you special privileges. Storage bags are only bestowed by the sect at the fourth level of Qi Refining, and only then can one have the right to purchase them. There is also a fixed number of floors you can enter in the Scripture Pavilion. Not to mention that this amount of spirit rice is not enough, even the disciples in charge can only obtain spirit stones from the five-year mini-competition. This is also a settled matter. To break the rules and obtain special privileges, you must at least have a second-grade aptitude."

Chen Guang muttered to himself.

The second-grade aptitude of Qingheng Sect is a true second-grade aptitude where all three attributes reach the second grade. It is not a pseudo-second-grade aptitude where only one attribute reaches the second grade. It is truly a rare talent.

"Then I want to get a sufficient number of Linquan pumpkin seeds," Chen Guang said without hesitation.

From the moment he learned that he could receive compensation and rewards, Chen Guang began to think that directly asking for spirit rice would be the worst choice.

The compensation is to cover any trouble that may result from the public investigation.

The reward is for good luck and potential; it's a form of encouragement.

That's why it's allowed to make equivalent requests.

The Linquan Pumpkin is definitely a very special spiritual plant. It can be mass-produced with Linquan and has a wide market. It is very popular among Qitang disciples. Although it will not form a monopoly, the market demand far exceeds the supply. It allows Chen Guang to accumulate wealth while expanding his interpersonal relationships. Qitang disciples are often away from home, so they have the greatest chance of obtaining all sorts of random spiritual plant seeds.

Unfortunately, apart from finding a bargain by myself, Linquan pumpkin seeds are rarely available on the market. They are hard to obtain, so I naturally had to take advantage of this opportunity to bring them up.

To maximize the benefits of the reward orb, you should try as many new spiritual plants as possible, and choose the most suitable spiritual plant to grow by considering the value of the spiritual plant itself and the rewards from the reward orb.

The reward for the Linquan Pumpkin is the low-grade spiritual artifact Thousand Water Gourd, the Spring Spring Technique, and the Spring Spring Technique Talisman. However, its value is extremely high, and it can reduce the energy required to take care of the spiritual field. Therefore, it holds an unshakable position in Chen Guang's heart.

The Linquan Pumpkin is enough to meet Chen Guang's needs for accumulating daily wealth, so he doesn't need to consider making money from other spiritual plants, thus broadening his choices.

There may be better spiritual plants, but considering everything, the Linquan Pumpkin is quite suitable for me.

"And how does this strange, seedless, seedless thing even have seeds, and how can it obtain wild seeds?"

Linquan pumpkin is definitely Chen Guang's first choice.

Blood Polygonum multiflorum is related to my cultivation of the "Blood Scripture," so I can't give it up. However, there is a lot of Blood Polygonum multiflorum available on the market, so even if I have to wait, I can still buy the seeds from the market. I can consider it later.

"Only this one?" Senior Brother Zhang asked.

"I'm sure," Chen Guang said.

"Choosing Linquan pumpkins is definitely a good choice. There is a stall owned by the Cao brothers, a small cultivation family, in Xingfeng Market. They have black thistle soil available there. Using black thistle soil can increase the yield of Linquan pumpkins." Senior Brother He from Ditang looked at Chen Guang with more approval.

"What you requested will be delivered within three days. Any amount insufficient to exchange for seeds will be delivered in the form of spirit rice," Senior Brother Zhang said indifferently, before turning to leave.

At this moment, Mr. Zhou suddenly stepped forward: "I have a breathing technique here that is not ordinary, which should be just right for you now. Do not pass it on to others."

Old Master Zhou handed a thin book to Chen Guang and said with a kind smile, "This is another kind of reward from the sect for you."

Jiang Zuoyun's two branch buildings were only slightly surprised, but Senior Brother Zhang and Senior Brother He remained calm.

The Xiantang sect holds a superior position and values ​​the entire sect. It also possesses many secret techniques and treasures. Therefore, when they encounter someone they like, they may sometimes bestow some items that can be helpful to that disciple. If you have a good rapport with someone, you might even be stopped and chatted with by a Xiantang disciple while walking down the street. If you hit it off, you can receive a small gift that does not affect the overall situation but can be quite helpful to the individual.

"Thank you, senior brother," Chen Guang said quickly.

Mr. Zhou waved his hand, then boarded the strange bird, and just like when they arrived, the three of them left in a hurry.

"Junior Brother Chen is truly a man of great talent. It seems we'll be visiting each other more often in the future." Jiang Zuoyun congratulated him with a beaming smile and a perfectly poised manner, making it far from annoying.

"You're too kind, senior brother," Chen Guang replied.

"We're busy with the branch office matters, so we'll take our leave now." Jiang Zuoyun smiled, cupped his hands in greeting, and then, together with Steward Long, whose expression was somewhat complicated, rode off on their spirit cranes in a hurry.
