Seeing the hand movement of Lu Xuan, the three individuals mutually understood. They shared a glance and retreated to a corner of the lobby.

“This young man is always talking about some kind of secret knowledge that he refuses to share. It’s clear that he just wants Spirit Stones. What do you think?”

“In my opinion, we should give it a try. If his methods do indeed work, we stand to gain a lot. If we can truly grow Perfect Quality Spirit Firefly Grass, we’ll gain significant reputation and Spirit Stones.

Moreover, if we can grow Perfect Quality Spirit Firefly Grass, it is possible to cultivate Perfect Quality First or even Second-Level Spirit Plants.”

“I’m just worried that what he is saying won’t work, and we end up wasting our Spirit Stones for nothing.”

“In any case, he is also a Herbalist of Hundred Herbs Hall. If we get scammed, we can still find him through the Hall.”

The three quietly discussed for a moment, then approached Lu Xuan again.

“Friend Lu, we three have decided to offer sixty Spirit Stones in exchange for your method of growing Perfect Quality Spirit Firefly Grass. What do you think?”

“Inasmuch as teaching one’s methods should not be taken lightly, the method to cultivate Perfect Quality Spirit Plants involves a lot. I hope the three of you will understand.”

Lu Xuan’s tone gradually relaxed, shifting from the initial ‘nonetheless it’s a secret’ to the present ‘teaching one’s methods should not be taken lightly’.

The meaning behind his words was also very clear:

He wanted more money.

The three returned to the corner, debated in muted voices, and eventually came back to Lu Xuan.

“One hundred Spirit Stones, and not a single one more. My friend Lu, you should understand better than anyone that Spirit Stones are hard to come by as a No-Organization Spirit Plant Master. This is the most that we can pool together.”

The swarthy middle-aged cultivator said with a regretful expression.

As for the three men’s wealth, Lu Xuan had no interest in knowing. He just knew that one hundred Spirit Stones was indeed not a small sum.

One should know, Perfect Quality Spirit Firefly Grass, compared to other qualities, doesn’t have a substantial price increase. Making a profit would require cultivating many high-quality Spirit Firefly Grass.

“Methods should be passed down to those with a connection. Being able to meet the three of you here means we have strong karma. I will tell you the cultivation methods.”

“The principle is very simple, according to the growth needs of the Spirit Plants, change from large-scale formula methods to precise application of these methods, such as the Spirit Rain Technique, the Earth Pulling Technique, the Tree Life Spell, etc, extending these to the Spirit Plants when most apt. Only in this way can they achieve optimal growth.”

“As for when to apply these precise methods, that’s something the three of you will have to figure out.”

“That’s how it is!”

The three suddenly came to understand.

“Every Spirit Plant, during the course of its growth, has different needs. Even if the differences are very slight, they accumulate over time and ultimately affect the quality of the plant when it matures.”

“And nurturing the Spirit Plants carefully will indeed address these problems to the fullest.”

“My friend, I understand!”

The expressions of the three of them showed their gratitude. The method Lu Xuan spoke of was indeed very simple, but there aren’t many Spirit Plant Masters who are willing to do it this way.

After all, for most cultivators, cultivating Spirit Plants is just one of many cultivation skills, no different from Alchemy and Tool refining. Cultivation is the most important thing.

Immediately, the three of them realized the problem.

“If we really do as Friend Lu suggests, wouldn’t that mean we spend most of our energy on cultivating Spirit Plants, leaving little time for cultivation of ourselves?” The swarthy middle-aged cultivator asked doubtfully.

“Indeed, that’s how it is.”

Lu Xuan nodded.

“I know my talents are average, and I have no hope in cultivation. Hence, I chose to give up on cultivation all together, spending all my time and effort on cultivating Spirit Plants, and have thus obtained a bit of insignificant results.”

“As for the three of you, whether you want to work hard in cultivation, improving your cultivation level, or you want to cultivate more high-quality Spirit Plants and earn more Spirit Stones, that’s up to your personal choices.”

The three men left with lots of thoughts in their heads.

Lu Xuan watched the backs of the three departing men, satisfied, he put the hundred spirit stones he’d obtained into his storage bag.

He took these hundred Spirit Stones without any guilt.

The method he told the three was indeed effective. After careful cultivation of Spirit Plants, the quality of the plants they grow will definitely improve to some extent, thus allowing them to earn more Spirit Stones.

However, what Lu Xuan didn’t mention, the most crucial point, was that he is able to understand and control the real-time status of the Spirit Plants. He can adjust according to their needs at any time.

The three of them couldn’t do this; they can only find out by trial and error and approximate estimation. They can’t achieve perfect cultivation, and it’s very difficult to get perfect quality Spirit Plants.

Moreover, if they chose to cultivate Spirit Plants carefully, they have basically given up cultivation. They are not like Lu Xuan, who has rewards from the White Light Grp; they can get all kinds of treasures and cultivation levels.

“You think I’m really laying down and taking it easy?”

Lu Xuan chuckled softly to himself.

“In fact, I’m stealing all your thunder.”

“You boy, not only are you good at cultivating Spirit Plants, but you’re also not bad at earning Spirit Stones.”

The thin old man approached Lu Xuan, who didn’t notice when he came. He laughed softly as he spoke.

“Isn’t that right?”

Lu Xuan smiled smugly.

“With three sentences, I got three Spirit Plant Masters to spend a hundred Spirit Stones. This level is ok, isn’t it?”

“Earning one hundred Spirit Stones is quite good, but if you let your unique method be known, then it won’t be worth the loss.”

Manager He showed some dissatisfaction, seemingly blaming Lu Xuan for leaking the method of growing Perfect Grade Spirit plants for the sake of a little profit.

“Manager He, rest assured, it’s not that simple. The method is are as I described, but whether one can do it or not is another matter.

Otherwise, with so many Spirit Plant Masters, why hasn’t anyone discovered that careful cultivation can uplift the quality of Spirit Plants? But do you see how many Spirit Plant Masters can cultivate perfect quality ones?”

Lu Xuan said calmly.

The lean elder nodded, feeling slightly reassured.

“Come here, take those three Qingmiao Spirit Tea seedlings.”

Lu Xuan followed the elder into a room. The room was filled with a sweet fragrance. In the center was a wooden shelf with three flower pots marked with strange patterns.

Within the flower pots, were three tea tree seedlings.

Though these seedlings were only about five inches tall, their branches were twisted and knotty, which exuded a strange contrast between being delicate and powerful.

On these branches, were a few tiny green tea leaves, which were slightly shaking under the breeze. Despite their fragile appearance, one could feel a strong vitality from them.

“These are the three seedlings of Second Grade Qingmiao Spirit Tea.”

“This is not some Non-grade Spirit Plant like the Spirit Firefly Grass. It is much more expensive. You have to take great care of it and make sure you don’t fail.”

Manager He looked stern as he instructed Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan nodded gravely.

“How many Spirit Stones do these three Qingmiao Spirit Tea seedlings cost?”

“On the market, each recorded buying of Qingmiao Spirit Tea seedling is usually thirty spirit stones apiece. The price is a result of the seedlings scarcity and the preciousness of the tea leaves. Although you have a deal with Bai Cao Tang, you can get them at a lower price. The three seedlings, you can take away for sixty Spirit Stones.”

With the price being reduced by more than 30%, Lu Xuan felt even more fortunate that he’d established such a relatively free partnership with Bai Cao Tang and felt even more grateful to the old man who’d brought him in..
