19: Chapter 19 Hundred-Year Spirit Milk, Gathering Spirit Pill

At this moment, he had no choice but to stop because the twenty acres of first-grade spirit fields were ready for harvest.

Although Li Yanlong and the others could also handle the harvest, Li Luochen decided to emerge from seclusion to discuss the planting schedule for ordinary spirit rice with them.

He planned to plant all the spirit rice at the same time, believing this would increase the chances of a critical harvest.

After emerging from seclusion, Li Luochen flew directly towards Qianlong Valley.

Qianlong Mountain was not far from Qianlong Valley; at his flying speed, he could arrive in just a few breaths.

Li Yanlong and the others had already appeared outside the spirit fields. Seeing Li Luochen's arrival, everyone respectfully saluted.

"We greet the Family Head!"

Li Luochen assessed their auras and couldn't help but brighten his eyes.

"Hmm, very good. Yanlong, your cultivation is nearing a Breakthrough to Qi Refining Stage 5. Yanhu, you're on the verge of breaking through as well."

"Yanfeng, you've reached Qi Refining Level 3 too. Cultivate diligently and strive to break through to Qi Refining Level 4 soon."

As for the younger ones, aside from Li Changfeng at Qi Refining Layer 2, the others were still at Qi Refining Level 1, leaving little to comment on.

However, with the supply of premium Medicinal Pills, they should break through to Qi Refining Layer 2 before long.

Besides these youngsters, there were two women and one man, all around seventeen or eighteen years old. They also had fluctuations of spiritual power, having recently broken through to Qi Refining Level 1.

Li Luochen smiled with satisfaction. "Excellent. Congratulations to our Li Family for gaining three more cultivators, growing ever stronger."

"Yanlong, Yanhu, aren't you going to introduce them?"

Li Yanlong smiled. "Family Head, this is Wang Cuicui, my Dao Companion. This is Liu Xiaoling, Yanhu's Dao Companion. And this is Gao Qingzhou, Yanfeng's Dao Companion."

"This is the head of our Li Family. Hurry up and pay your respects."

The three quickly saluted. "We greet the Family Head!"

Li Luochen smiled. "Good, you all show great promise. Cultivate diligently from now on and strive for the rise of our Li Family."

The three hurriedly assented, their eyes filled with reverence.

Li Luochen then took out thirty Spirit Stones, divided them into three portions, and sent them flying towards the three, hovering before them.

"This is a welcoming gift. Don't think it's too little; the Family isn't exactly wealthy."

Gao Qingzhou and the other two also knew about Spirit Stones. Seeing them, their eyes flashed with pleasant surprise.

Spirit Stones could accelerate their cultivation speed and were the currency of the Immortal Realm. As newly minted Qi Refining Level 1 cultivators, obtaining them was nearly impossible.

Now, the Family Head's welcoming gift was ten Spirit Stones each, which suited them perfectly.

Li Yanlong had already informed them about the Family's situation, so they naturally knew the Li Family was small and didn't have many Spirit Stones.

The three quickly accepted the Spirit Stones and thanked him again. "Thank you, Family Head."

Li Luochen smiled. "Alright, let's start harvesting the spirit rice. We'll hold off on planting ordinary spirit rice for now, let the fields rest, and plant everything together later."

With that, he walked towards the spirit fields and began harvesting the first-grade Low Grade spirit rice.

The others also started working. After all, once this spirit rice was harvested, they could receive this year's cultivation resources.

Among them, Li Yanlong was not far from Qi Refining Stage 5, Li Yanhu was on the verge of a Breakthrough, and Li Yanfeng had already broken through to Qi Refining Level 3, not far from Qi Refining Level 4.

After all, each of them had received two drops of earth pulse stalactite milk, treasures for boosting cultivation.

While it might not be much to Li Luochen, for the others, it was absolutely a supreme treasure.

In just half a day, all the spirit rice here was harvested, including the stalks, all ending up in Li Luochen's hands.

"Ding! Congratulations, Host. Through the Family's diligent farming, you have harvested 13,000 jin of first-grade Low Grade spirit rice, valued at 1,300 Spirit Stones, plus some stalks. The farming reward condition has been met. First-grade Low Grade spirit rice critical harvest obtained: one drop of Hundred-Year Spirit Milk. Stalks critical harvest obtained: one bottle of Spirit-Gathering Divine Pill."

Li Luochen couldn't help but widen his eyes, somewhat incredulous. This time, the System had triggered two critical harvests.

Hundred-Year Spirit Milk was a good thing, perfectly suited for boosting his cultivation at his current stage. Refining this one drop would at least allow his cultivation to break through to the Peak of Qi Refining Level 8.

After all, it was Hundred-Year Spirit Milk. Spiritual substances over a hundred years old were effective even for Foundation Establishment Stage experts.

As for the Spirit-Gathering Divine Pill, Li Luochen naturally knew it was a treasure for consolidating the Divine Soul and enhancing Divine Sense.

And there was a whole bottle! This time, he had truly hit the jackpot.

Li Yanlong suddenly took out some spirit rice and said earnestly, "Family Head, this is the spirit rice from the last harvest. Do you think we should take it to the market to sell?"

Li Luochen smiled. "Perfect timing. I need to make a trip out anyway. Let's sell this spirit rice."

"Remember, hold off on planting ordinary spirit rice for now. Wait until all the spirit fields are properly arranged."

Li Yanlong nodded, indicating no problem.

Li Luochen took the spirit rice to Qingsha Market. The ordinary spirit rice was sold at a stall for 1,500 Spirit Stones, and over 400 Fireball Talismans were sold for 1,200 Spirit Stones.

After finishing this, Li Luochen went directly to the Spirit Rice Workshop, sold the first-grade Low Grade spirit rice, and obtained 2,200 Spirit Stones.

Adding these up, he now had a total of 4,900 Spirit Stones. Combined with what he had obtained earlier at the Xiaoao Island market, he had over 6,000 Spirit Stones in total.

With these Spirit Stones, Li Luochen didn't hold back, purchasing thirty premium Profound Spirit Pills.

Profound Spirit Pills were a specialty of Qingsha Market, a first-grade High Grade Medicinal Pill, and the best cultivation pill for the Late Stage of Qi Refining.

A single premium Profound Spirit Pill cost thirty-five Spirit Stones.

Thirty premium Profound Spirit Pills were worth 1,050 Spirit Stones, which made Li Luochen's heart ache a little.

He also bought two bottles of premium yellow dragon pills for three hundred Spirit Stones, and fifteen bottles of premium spirit gathering pills for seven hundred and fifty Spirit Stones.

After purchasing these Medicinal Pills, Li Luochen had spent 2,100 Spirit Stones.

He didn't begrudge this expenditure. The Li Family was newly established. Only when the clansmen's cultivation levels rose could he acquire more spirit fields and gain greater benefits.

For example, now, one drop of Hundred-Year Spirit Milk could allow him to break through to the Peak of Qi Refining Level 8 in a short time, saving him a lot of cultivation time.

If Li Luochen previously had little hope of breaking through to Qi Refining 10th Layer within thirty years, that hope was now very great. He could even steadily break through to Qi Refining 10th Layer before the age of eighty.

Looking at the remaining four thousand-plus Spirit Stones, Li Luochen spent them without hesitation.

This time, he directly purchased nine drops of earth pulse stalactite milk. Since Gao Qingzhou and the other two had become the Dao Companions of Li Yanlong and the others, there was no need to treat them poorly.

Besides Medicinal Pills, they were also old enough to consume earth pulse stalactite milk. One drop of earth pulse stalactite milk combined with Medicinal Pills would be enough for them to break through to the Peak of Qi Refining Layer 2.

By then, the Family's spirit fields would have a few more people to manage them, which was a good thing for Li Luochen.

As for the remaining six drops, they would still go to Li Yanlong and the other two, allowing them to improve their cultivation as much as possible, ideally breaking through to Qi Refining Stage 7 within ten years.

By that time, he could purchase a new island, or even directly buy a spirit island for farming.
