Chapter 671 -257: Three Plans, Complaints, and Surprises (Part 2)

“So.

If I want to truly retreat safely when facing Ye Yanshu, this Yin Dragon Talisman is definitely a major trump card.”

Zhou Changwang took a deep breath, his heart slightly heavy.

Compared to the Flying Blood Corpse Talisman, the drawing difficulty of the Yin Dragon Talisman is naturally much greater.

Fortunately, as he had previously thought, its own components are also based on Dharma Rune Structures.

Although this Spirit Talisman is of the Third Grade level, involving a large amount of rune structures that are closely packed, forming a special web of runes internally, making it impossible to discern its specific operating principles.

But the fundamental remains unchanged.

Through his Perfection level understanding of Dharma Rune Structures, Zhou Changwang can naturally glimpse most of its secrets.

At least, the more than twelve hundred Dharma Rune Structures he mastered are his greatest confidence.

Although the Yin Dragon Talisman is difficult to create, at least 80% of the Dharma Rune Structures within it are ones he understands and has mastered.

“That means,

the true challenge is only in the remaining 20%.

It seems hopeful to successfully draw it within three days.”

Zhou Changwang silently analyzed.

He had already quietly allocated his time very tightly.

First, in terms of cultivation, he aimed to break through to the Second Layer of Foundation Establishment within three days.

Second, to cultivate Minor Divine Techniques, such as the Little Spirit-Banning Technique.

Third, naturally, to draw this Yin Dragon Talisman.

“Besides that…”

Zhou Changwang pondered, his gaze suddenly landing on the Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree in the courtyard.

This Centennial Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree, after his previous nurturing, had grown to a Ring Time of six hundred and seventy years.

Another thirty years of Ring Time, it could ascend to seven hundred years and yield another batch of Centennial Red Leaf Spirit Tea, and a seven hundred-year vintage Red Leaf Spirit Tea at that.

Its effect would surely far exceed that of six hundred years.

“It’s just a pity.

My time is not sufficient.

Otherwise, I could have tasted the effect of seven hundred-year vintage Red Leaf Spirit Tea Leaves.

Or even eight hundred, nine hundred years… until it reaches the four-grade thousand-year level…”

Zhou Changwang had a slight sense of regret.

He initially planned to completely cultivate this Spirit Plant to the Fourth Grade after having dispatched the numerous treasures meant for Qian Xiaoyue.

But for now, he had to postpone it.

“Wait… perhaps, there’s no need to delay…”

Zhou Changwang’s eyes flashed, and a figure quickly surfaced in his mind.

It was the Chen Family Siblings, Chen Chen and Chen Qingqing, who had initially followed him with Zheng Ajiu, Zheng Qi, and Zou Shuixiu to the Five Peaks Mountain Spirit Land.

In comparison to Zheng Ajiu’s cleverness, Zheng Cheng’s loyalty, Zheng Qi’s straightforwardness, Zou Shuixiu’s meticulousness, and Zou Yin Hua’s cleverness, the Chen Family Siblings seemed quite low-profile.

After being allocated spirit land, they quietly took root in the Spirit Field, rarely visiting him.

Perhaps they did, but he was often in retreat, so they never met.

So much so, there was a period when he almost overlooked the siblings’ existence.

Until he left the Five Peaks Mountain Spirit Land last time and passed by their cared-for spirit land, witnessing their Spirit Plant techniques, he couldn’t help but sigh, having underestimated Chen Chen.

Their Spirit Plant techniques, in his view, had surely reached the High-First Grade Level.

At least, techniques like the Fertilization Technique, Annual Ring Skill, and Geng Metal Finger had all reached the realm of Great Success.

Great Success.

For ordinary cultivators without an attribute panel, this is quite impressive.

“I initially thought to have him help me cultivate the Thunder Spirit Rice.

But now, since time is pressing, I can naturally delegate appropriately and have him help nurture and upgrade this Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree.

Even if it cannot be enhanced to the Fourth Grade level,

upgrading to seven hundred-year Ring Time, or even eight hundred years, would still be good.”

Zhou Changwang was well aware that returning to the Divine Wind Valley Marketplace this time entailed significant danger.

And this Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree also served as a hope for him, he naturally wished to fully cultivate it to the degree of a Fourth-Grade Spirit Plant.

Thinking of this, he adjusted his mind, and his Divine Sense immediately took control of the entire Inverted Five Elements Array.

A Sound Transmission was sent out smoothly.

…

“Big Brother.

You’re tinkering with your flowers and plants again.”

In a Spirit Field within a valley of the Five Peaks Mountain Spirit Land,

a middle-aged cultivator clad in simple clothes, with sleeves and pants rolled up, was meticulously observing a Spirit Flower.

Behind him was a young maiden with a disappointed expression, saying,

“What do you understand?

This is a Twelve-Color Flower.

When it blooms twelve blossoms,

it will become a Third-Grade Spirit Plant, a genuine Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object.

A treasure countless people dream of.”

The middle-aged cultivator said earnestly.

“Yes, yes, yes.

I understand it’s a Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object.

But this is just a hundred years of Ring Time.

Even if you painstakingly nurture it to maturity, what difference does it make, Big Brother?

But have you ever thought about our future?

Toiling away in a spirit field to cultivate this Twelve-Color Flower, how is it any different from when we were in the family?

We came following Kunpeng Peak Master, just like Zheng Ajiu and others.

But now look.

Zheng Ajiu has become the nominal overseer within the Five Peaks Mountain Spirit Land, Zheng Cheng, strong and seemingly loyal, will surely be heavily utilized in the future, and even Zheng Qi is thriving within.

Let’s not even mention Zou Shuixiu and Zou Yin Hua, the sisters have gained attention from the Peak Master thanks to their Pill Master status, receiving guidance from time to time.

But look at us.

You, Big Brother, stay close to your few acres of Spirit Field, unnoticed.

As for me, I only know a bit about talisman making techniques and can’t connect much with the Peak Master, essentially dispensable.

Now even some tenants are gossiping.

Saying that we, like others, came following the Peak Master, but neither grandfather nor grandmother loves us… If this continues, I think we might as well return to the family.”

As she spoke, Chen Qingqing couldn’t help but feel a belly full of grievances.

But it was a fact there were no solutions, as she seldom interacted with the Peak Master, she could only voice her complaints to her brother.

“Don’t speak nonsense.”

Chen Chen scolded lightly, then softened his tone, saying, “Here, it’s much better than in the family.

The family spirit land is only of High-Second Grade level.

The better Spirit Fields have long been occupied by family elders.

Unlike here, with three acres of High-Second Grade Spirit Field, five acres of Mid-Tier Second Grade Spirit Field, and seven acres of Low-Tier Second Grade.

I hardly dared to dream of this before.

And the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in the Five Peaks Mountain Spirit Land is very abundant.

Cultivation speed is also faster than in our family.

Didn’t you break through a small realm recently? Have you forgotten?”

Chen Chen spoke, teasingly glancing at his little sister.

Chen Qingqing blushed on hearing this.

“Moreover, the Peak Master hasn’t been harsh with us.

The recent three hundred-year vintage Red Leaf Spirit Tea Leaves sent to us weren’t missed at all.

You experienced the effects after drinking it.”

Chen Chen continued to admonish.

“Oh brother, I was just complaining.

I never really intended to leave.

I naturally know how good it is here, it’s just, I’m a bit dissatisfied.”

Chen Qingqing stamped her foot, saying.

“Then stay obediently.

To be honest, our skills are just like that.

I only know farming, you are a bit better; besides farming, you can draw Spirit Talismans, but it’s not much help for the Peak Master.

Not being valued is quite normal.

Now I only hope that, in the future when the Peak Master refines pills, my Spirit Plants can be used, that will satisfy me.”

Chen Chen couldn’t help but feel.

As soon as he finished speaking, his face froze, followed by a look of disbelief in his eyes.

“Brother, Big Brother, what’s wrong?”

Seeing this, Chen Qingqing paused for a moment, quickly asking, with a tone that couldn’t help being a bit urgent.

“Did you hear anyone speaking just now?”

Chen Chen slightly came back to his senses, a bit flustered as he said.

“No, why? What’s wrong?”

Chen Qingqing shook her head, quickly asking.

“The Peak Master.

It’s the Peak Master!

The Peak Master just communicated with me.

He wants me to go to the Palm Heart Peak Master Hall!”

Chen Chen quickly said.

“Ah?”
