Chapter 92: Iron Stem Orchid and Iron Orchid Fruit
After the illusion spell was auctioned, Chu Ning had no interest in the following items.
He did not wait any longer and got up and left the room.
After finding the waiter outside, Chu Ning spent 200 low-grade spirit stones to buy the Thousand Beasts Picture.
After waiting for a while, Lin Changqing had not come down yet, so Chu Ning simply wandered around the Yunhai Pavilion.
Chu Ning is now mainly engaged in making talismans and planting, so he naturally looks at these two categories.
In the area where talismans are sold, Chu Ning saw some primary and high-grade talismans and even intermediate talismans.
But Chu Ning has no demand for talismans in this regard for the time being.
He looked at those primary and intermediate talismans again, and there were indeed many types.
But in terms of the quality of the talismans, they could not be compared with those made by his paintings.
This made Chu Ning feel a little proud.
In terms of the quality of the talismans alone, no one can compare with the ones he made.
In the end, he did not buy anything else except ten boxes of talisman ink.
When he turned to the area where spiritual plants were sold, Chu Ning's eyes lit up.
In this Yunhai Pavilion, there were actually many spiritual plants that he had only seen in the jade slips given by He Changyou before, but had never touched.
He couldn't help but look at them carefully.
After walking a short distance, Chu Ning stopped in front of a spiritual plant that was about a foot tall and had slender leaves.
Immediately, a waiter came forward to introduce it.
"Daoyou, this is the iron stem orchid, which we introduced from other mountains in Yunhai Pavilion.
This spiritual plant can be used directly as medicine, and it is one of the very good auxiliary medicinal materials for refining pills for strengthening the body and repairing qi and blood.
And if someone is willing to cultivate it carefully and spend some time, there is a certain probability that it will produce iron orchid fruit.
This iron orchid fruit is an excellent spiritual medicine for tempering the body."
Chu Ning's expression did not change because of the waiter's words.
The Jiuyan Body Refining Art he practiced was different from the current body refining exercises, and did not require much external force to temper the body.
So Chu Ning did not take the so-called body tempering effect of the iron orchid fruit to heart.
However, Chu Ning had learned about this spiritual plant from the jade slip provided by He Changyou before, and another characteristic of it still made Chu Ning very interested.
At this moment, the waiter was still introducing.
"Of course, this iron stem orchid needs to absorb a lot of spiritual energy to grow.
Although it absorbs spiritual energy quickly, if it is in a place where spiritual energy is insufficient, the cultivation time will be very long.
And whether or not the iron orchid fruit will be produced is completely a probability event, and there is no method that can help it bear fruit.
This point also needs to be made clear to fellow Taoists."
Chu Ning nodded slightly, and he knew these contents before.
This iron stem orchid absorbs a lot of spiritual energy, which is exactly why Chu Ning stayed here.
What he needs in his backyard is the spiritual plant that absorbs a lot of spiritual energy and quickly.
You know, he uses the Qingmu Chunhua technique to practice the Qingmu Changchun Gong. The more spiritual energy this spiritual plant absorbs, the greater the benefit it can get from the practice.
He had thought about planting some spiritual plants in one of the two backyards of Yanjifang to help him practice the Qingmu Changchun Gong.
However, none of the several types of seeds he brought from the sect were suitable.
The green spirit fruit he planted now can only be said to be just enough.
After all, under normal circumstances, the faster and more spiritual plants absorb spiritual energy, the more valuable they are.
Moreover, the higher the quality of spiritual plants, the higher the requirements for planting intervals.
The price of this iron stem orchid will not be very high because it is uncertain whether it will produce iron orchid fruit.
Chu Ning saw that the price here is 20 spirit stones per plant.
Moreover, Chu Ning saw in the previous jade slip that this iron stem orchid can even be planted very densely.
Of course, the quality will be affected accordingly.
However, for Chu Ning, these are not big problems.
Chu Ning immediately asked the waiter, "How many of these iron-stem orchids do you have here?"
The waiter was slightly stunned, and then replied, "About 50 plants."
"50 plants, one thousand spiritual stones." Chu Ning calculated in his mind, and then asked:
"Do you have seeds of this iron-stem orchid for sale?"
The waiter shook his head, "This iron-stem orchid is not a spiritual plant in our Qingxia Mountains, and our pavilion does not have this kind of seeds now."
"If you need it, our pavilion can also collect it for you."
After listening, Chu Ning frowned slightly. He frowned slightly, gritted his teeth secretly, and asked:
"If I buy all 50 iron stem orchids, can the price be negotiated?"
"Buy 50 at a time?" The waiter's eyes lit up, and after thinking for a while, he said to Chu Ning:
"If you buy 50 iron stem orchids at a time, I can apply to the pavilion, 19 spirit stones per plant."
Chu Ning nodded, "Okay, help me get these 50 iron stem orchids."
The waiter smiled a little more after hearing this, "Daoyou, please wait a moment, I will get it for you right away."
With that, the waiter left quickly.
After a while, he came back with two large jade boxes.
"Daoyou, all 50 iron stem orchids have been packed in these two jade boxes.
If they are used as medicine, it is okay to keep them in these jade boxes for a longer time.
If they are used for planting, they must be completed within ten days, otherwise it will be difficult for them to survive."
Chu Ning nodded to indicate that he understood, took the two jade boxes, and handed over 950 spirit stones to the other party.
The waiter took the 950 spirit stones and continued to smile.
"If you grow this iron orchid and get iron orchid fruit, you can also take it to our Yunhai Pavilion to sell.
Our Yunhai Pavilion will buy back all kinds of treasures at high prices..."
Chu Ning nodded without comment.
He didn't know whether the price of the things recycled by Yunhai Pavilion was high, but the things sold were not cheap.
In just half a day of practice, he had spent more than 2,800 spirit stones.
During this period, the talismans sold so well that most of the spirit stones were used up at once.
Chu Ning did not choose to shop anymore, and went downstairs directly to wait for Lin Changqing.
After a while, the whole auction ended, and many Qi Refining cultivators left one after another.
Chu Ning waited for about a cup of tea before Lin Changqing came down from upstairs.
Looking at his expression, although his face was still cold, there was a faint smile in the corner of his eyes, and it was obvious that this trip was also quite rewarding.
Seeing Chu Ning, Lin Changqing casually asked:
"Have you bought all your things?"
"I have!"
After Chu Ning answered, Lin Changqing did not ask any more questions and nodded:
"Then let's go back."
Lin Changqing did not ask Chu Ning what he bought at the auction, and still let Chu Ning sit on his flying boat on the way back.
After more than an hour, the two returned to Yanjifang.
After leaving Chu Ning outside the shop, Lin Changqing drove the boat away.
Chu Ning returned to the shop and first ran to the backyard to take a look. He found that Ling Xiaobai was still sleeping in the backyard, so he was relieved.
After Ling Xiaobai opened his eyes and looked at Chu Ning, he continued to sleep.
Seeing this, Chu Ning ignored him and began to fiddle with the things he bought from Yunhai Pavilion.
The Wind Chasing Shuttle, the first flying magic weapon that Chu Ning bought at such a high price.
It is about five feet long, with pointed ends, and the widest part in the middle is about two and a half feet.
There is enough space for standing or sitting on it.
Although the price is a bit expensive, Chu Ning still has a little expectation when he thinks that he can have a magic weapon flying in the sky instead of using the wind control technique every time.
"I can give it a try when I go to the spiritual field tomorrow."
Chu Ning did not take out the jade slip of the illusion spell at this time, but first took out the two jade boxes filled with iron stem orchids.
This iron stem orchid costs 20 spiritual stones per plant, which can be said to be the most precious spiritual plant Chu Ning has planted so far.
In fact, as a spiritual medicine, this thing itself is not planted in large quantities like ordinary spiritual plants.
Of course, for Chu Ning who wants to practice, in his eyes, it is equal to the value of ordinary spiritual plants at this moment.
Chu Ning found a fairly wide place, took out these iron stem orchids one by one, and began to plant them.
Chu Ning planted them very densely. In the circle of less than 2 meters, there was a place in the middle where he could sit cross-legged.
Then the outer periphery was planted with 50 iron stem orchids in two circles.
After all the iron orchids were cut, Chu Ning directly pinched the spell and cast the sweet rain spell.
Speaking of which, his ordinary sweet rain spell has not been able to be cast instantly.
Fortunately, it is enough.
Then, Chu Ning instantly cast the green wood spring blossom spell, covering 50 iron orchids.
After one green wood spring blossom spell, the iron orchid did not react at all, so Chu Ning continued to cast the spell.
After thirty green wood spring blossom spells were cast one after another, Chu Ning stopped.
Then he looked at the iron orchid with a hint of joy on his face.
Before, he only knew that the iron orchid had high requirements for absorbing spiritual energy, but Chu Ning did not have a very clear concept.
At this moment, after casting the green wood spring blossom spell, Chu Ning suddenly had a more intuitive understanding.
This iron orchid actually absorbed more spiritual energy than the blood sandalwood he had previously assessed in Area C.
However, because the trunk of the blood sandalwood is thick when it grows up, it needs to be planted at a longer distance.
Chu Ning can only plant about two trees in his backyard.
So even though one plant can absorb enough spiritual energy, the number that can be planted is too small. For Chu Ning, it is not obvious to practice the Qingmu Chunhua technique in the short term.
This is also the reason why Chu Ning has never considered planting this blood sandalwood.
Now this iron stem orchid is so small, but it can absorb so much spiritual energy with the help of the Qingmu Chunhua technique, which makes Chu Ning surprised and happy.
After a few days, when this iron stem orchid grows normally, it can be used to practice the Qingmu Chunhua technique. Chu Ning can imagine that the effect will definitely be far better than other spiritual plants before.
At this time, Ling Xiaobai was also awakened by the movement of Chu Ning casting a spell.
He looked at the iron stem orchid, and it actually called out to Chu Ning.
Chu Ning was stunned when he heard the "ying" sound, until Ling Xiaobai expressed "want to eat" with his spiritual consciousness, he reacted.
He smiled and asked: "Do you want to eat the fruit of this iron stem orchid?"
Ling Xiaobai "ying" again, which was considered an answer.
Chu Ning smiled and shook his head, "I still want it to grow some fruit, the key is that it can grow."
Whether it was the jade slip given by He Changyou before, or the waiter in Yunhai Pavilion before, it was mentioned.
The flowering and fruiting of this iron orchid fruit is completely a probability event.
Otherwise, this iron stem orchid would not be called iron stem orchid, but directly called iron orchid fruit.
If it is said that by improving the quality, it can help to produce iron orchid fruit, Chu Ning has absolute confidence in his Qingmu Chunhua technique.
But for this kind of random event without any rules, Chu Ning can only hope that he is the son of luck.
Ling Xiaobai blinked his cute eyes when he heard what Chu Ning said at this moment, and began to circle around the iron stem orchid.
Then, while Chu Ning was stunned, he lifted his foot directly.
He peed.
"I am going to practice in it, can't you hold it in somewhere else? It's better to pee in the Magnolia Fruit than here."
Chu Ning stared at Ling Xiaobai with a smile, but the latter just made a "嘤" sound at Chu Ning.
Then, he walked away and lay on the ground again, it seems that he wants to sleep for a while.
"I hope your urine won't hurt this spiritual plant."
Chu Ning could only shake his head helplessly, and ignored the other party and left the backyard directly.
Making a fire to cook, Chu Ning checked the jade slip of the Thousand Beasts Map that he bought from Yunhai Pavilion today while cooking spiritual rice.
It really records a lot of information about monsters and spirits.
There are not only text introductions, but also pictures, each of which is vivid.
Because he just wanted to see if there was any information about Ling Xiaobai, Chu Ning browsed through it very quickly.
After browsing through it once, Chu Ning put down the jade slip with some disappointment.
This Thousand Beasts Map does have a lot of information about spirit beasts and demon beasts, but Chu Ning did not find any records related to Ling Xiaobai after reading the entire jade slip.
"But this jade slip does have a lot of information about the levels of spirit beasts and demon beasts."
Chu Ning held the jade slip and thought about it.
According to the jade slip, there is actually not much division between spirit beasts and demon beasts in the current world of immortal cultivation.
The cultivators are used to calling the ones they cultivate spirit beasts, and the ones that are wild are called demon beasts.
But in ancient times, only some spirit beasts that were born with heaven and earth and have special magical powers were called spirit beasts.
And this kind of spirit beast, as long as it grows a little, can generally reach the sixth level or above.
The level of spirit beasts and demon beasts is equivalent to that of cultivators in the Jindan period.
But even if it is above level 6, if it does not have special talents, it can only be called a demon beast.
However, as the number of those heavenly and earthly spirit beasts decreased, the description gradually changed.
And the spirit beasts with special magical powers are now called ancient spirit beasts in the world of immortal cultivation.
In addition to these introductions about spirit beasts and demon beasts, this Thousand Beasts Map also has a lot of introductions about demon beasts.
It also gave Chu Ning a more comprehensive understanding of demon beasts for the first time.
Although the level of these demon beasts is generally below level 5, and only a few are level 6, Chu Ning did not think that the 200 spirit stones were not worth it.
It was just that I didn't find any relevant information about Ling Xiaobai, and I was a little disappointed.
Fortunately, Ling Xiaobai stayed here for a day or two, and Chu Ning did not find too many disadvantages for the time being, so he was not in a hurry.
There will be a chance in the future, see if I can find some more advanced books about spirit beasts and demon beasts.
Chu Ning always felt that Ling Xiaobai looked a little extraordinary.
But Fang's level was indeed very low, which was very strange.
