“Those are all Spirit Rank Spirit Medicine!”
“Spirit Rank Spirit Medicine must be carefully nurtured and managed. I have to personally oversee them, and there will be Elders coming to inspect them.”
“You naturally don’t have the qualifications to touch them.”
“If you accidentally damage even one, your meager contribution points won’t be enough to compensate for it.”
Wu Jia said arrogantly.
“So it’s the legendary Spirit Medicine.” Su Ci finally understood, no wonder they seemed to glow.
Wu Jia continued, “These medicinal materials are divided into ordinary medicinal herbs and Spirit Medicine.”
“The lowest grade in that medicinal garden is a First-Rank Spirit Medicine.”
“And what I asked you to water every morning are all ordinary medicinal materials, not reaching the Spirit Rank category.”
He spoke at length, looking very much enjoying the feeling.
Su Ci did not interrupt, mostly listening quietly.
He followed Wu Jia through the medicinal garden, watching the other party’s demonstration and memorizing it.
“You must remember, watering also has its intricacies. Different medicinal materials require different amounts of water.”
“For example, this Purple Brocade Grass only needs one spoon of water daily; more would be harmful and not beneficial!”
“And this Hidden Sun Grass requires three spoons; not more, not less, or problems will arise.”
“You must follow this illustrated guide and water each one accordingly.”
Wu Jia said, handing a medicinal herb illustrated guide in his hand to Su Ci.
Su Ci nodded and said, “Alright, Junior Brother understands.”
“Good, now follow me. You will also need to help me sort medicinal materials in the future.”
…
For a full hour, Wu Jia informed Su Ci of all the matters one by one.
This fellow was quite talkative, saying a lot of nonsense to Su Ci, which made Su Ci a bit unaccustomed.
It was estimated that the other party was also an Outer Sect Disciple promoted from the Miscellaneous Service Hall, so he did not look down on Su Ci.
Su Ci summarized the tasks the other party mentioned: wake up in the morning, water the medicinal materials according to the illustrated guide, and check their condition.
Next, return to the medicinal material room to help Wu Jia count all the medicinal materials in the room, then store them as needed, knowing how much stock there is in each place.
Also, according to the supply and demand of the medicinal material room, harvest some mature medicinal materials from the medicinal garden, and so on, ready to supply Outer Sect Disciples and places like the Pill Refining Room at any time.
There were a total of three or four tasks.
It looked more complicated than carrying water and chopping wood, but it actually didn't take much time.
Su Ci calculated that completing everything would only take one morning, at most extending by another hour.
It was much earlier to finish work than carrying water and chopping wood, and it wasn't tiring, plus he would get more contribution points.
“The most important thing is having more free time for Cultivation.”
Su Ci was a little excited, already looking forward to his future days.
“What are you thinking about, kid?”
Beside him, Wu Jia suddenly spoke.
Su Ci came back to his senses and said, “Nothing, I’m thinking about the future and striving to complete the tasks well.”
Wu Jia smiled and said, “You kid are quite ambitious.”
“By the way, how long have you been in the Miscellaneous Service Hall? What Spiritual Root did you test for? Low Grade Mortal Spiritual Root? Have you Cultivated the Qi Induction Tactic?”
“Senior Brother, I’ve been in the Miscellaneous Service Hall for a month, and my test result was a Miscellaneous Spiritual Root.”
“Miscellaneous Spiritual Root?” Wu Jia was astonished.
“Good heavens, I didn’t expect it to be the worst Miscellaneous Spiritual Root. I thought you were a Low Grade Mortal Spiritual Root.”
He shook his head and continued, “With a Miscellaneous Spiritual Root, you’re probably fated to be without Cultivation in this life. Even if you try to sense Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, it will probably take a full month, let alone higher Realms.”
“Have you not yet sensed Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi?”
Su Ci scratched his head and said, “Reporting to Senior Brother, I have already stepped into Qi Refining First Layer.”
Wu Jia’s eyes widened instantly: “Huh? A Miscellaneous Spiritual Root stepping into Qi Refining First Layer in one month? You kid are trying to fool me, aren’t you?”
Su Ci truthfully said, “I accidentally obtained two Qi Induction Pills in the Miscellaneous Service Hall, and then it took me more than ten days to successfully achieve this.”
There was no need to hide this point.
Moreover, he had also noticed that Wu Jia was only at the Qi Refining Third Layer Realm.
Because he had once heard Uncle Feng say that only after reaching Qi Refining Fourth Layer could one’s Divine Thought grow strong enough to be released and easily detect Cultivators of lower Realms.
Wu Jia suddenly realized: “So it was with the help of Qi Induction Pills. It seems you kid are quite lucky.”
“But it will be difficult to Cultivate to Qi Refining Second Layer, unless you have the help of True Spirit Pill.”
“True Spirit Pill?” Su Ci’s heart stirred.
Wu Jia said, “True Spirit Pill is a Medicinal Pill that helps Cultivators quickly improve themselves after stepping into Qi Refining First Layer.”
“With this thing, it’s much faster than Cultivating laboriously on your own.”
Su Ci immediately asked, “How many contribution points does this Medicinal Pill cost?”
After hearing this, Wu Jia squinted his small eyes and scanned Su Ci, saying, “You kid are so eager to become stronger, you want to buy True Spirit Pill?”
Su Ci scratched his head and smiled, “Just curious, after all, who doesn’t want to become stronger?”
Wu Jia said, “One hundred contribution points can buy one True Spirit Pill, and it’s a Low Grade True Spirit Pill.”
“With your four contribution points daily, you’d have to work for nearly a month to buy one.”
Su Ci nodded and said, “I understand, thank you for informing me, Senior Brother.”
Now, he already had sixty contribution points in hand, and in ten more days, he would have one hundred.
Having tasted the sweetness of the Qi Induction Pill, he had already made up his mind to definitely try the True Spirit Pill!
Next, Su Ci began to work diligently.
First, as Wu Jia instructed, he watered all the medicinal materials, checking them against the illustrated guide one by one.
After he finished watering, about two hours had passed.
Next, he assisted Wu Jia, helping him count the medicinal materials in the medicinal material room, replenishing wherever there was a shortage, and so on.
After a busy session, it was already noon.
Wu Jia waved at Su Ci and said, “Alright, you kid did pretty well for your first time. You have nothing to do this afternoon, so you can go back first. Don’t be late tomorrow morning.”
“Okay, thank you, Senior Brother.”
After bidding farewell to Wu Jia, Su Ci left the medicinal garden and returned to his residence.
“The Spiritual Qi in the Spirit Medicine Garden is much richer than here.”
He clearly noticed that the Spiritual Qi in his residence was very thin.
“If I Cultivate there, the effect should be better.”
Su Ci thought to himself.
In his mind, the many medicinal materials in the medicinal garden unconsciously appeared. Today, he had truly seen too many medicinal materials.
There were Hidden Sun Grass, Purple Brocade Grass, Flower Spirit Leaf, Three-Colored Withered…
The corresponding watering amount for each medicinal material, as well as the attributes and characteristics of the medicinal material…
As he thought, Su Ci suddenly trembled all over, his eyes suddenly widening.
“Wait, how do I seem to have remembered all the detailed attributes of the medicinal materials?!”
