He was very puzzled, but the cultivators didn’t ntion this aspect next; instead, they discussed each other’s magic skills.
There was Cloud Rain Technique, Earth Cultivation Technique, Earth Vein Spirit Summoning Technique...
Even though there were only three Foundation Establishnt cultivators, the rest were Qi Refining cultivators, but they knew quite a lot. The various magical arts opened Li Ye’s eyes.
Li Ye silently hid in the crowd, listening to their discussions and occasionally recording their insights, planning to archive it directly into the Jade Scroll and study it carefully after he establishes his Foundation.
Earlier, he had already stood out enough, so he’d better play it safe and quietly make a fortune now.
Fortunately, no one ca to cause trouble for him while he was hiding like this.
After the discussion ended, the cultivators brought out their treasures for exchange. Su Ya and the other two Foundation Establishnt cultivators respectively took out Pills, ancient texts, and Magical Artifacts.
Among them, the artifact from the Jiang-nad female cultivator caught Li Ye’s attention.
It was an iron cast disk.
When a Spirit Stone is placed in it, it automatically unfolds, with extending iron rods reaching into the ground, accurately delivering water and Spiritual Qi to the regions where the iron tubes extend, and can also control the flow of water and Spiritual Qi.
It can extend up to eight pipes.
"This item is called the Earth Vein Comprehensive Plate."
"It’s a simplified version of the Divine Technique Earth Vein Comprehensive Elent and can cover an area of about ten acres."
"Though its power is not even one-thousandth of the original, it’s very convenient for growing Spirit Plants or Nourishing Spirit Beasts."
She spoke eloquently: "My Jiang Family collaborated with the Mo Family’s seniors, and such a Spiritual Artifact, if outside, would cost no less than five hundred Spirit Stones, but now it only requires two hundred Spirit Stones."
Li Ye was slightly tempted.
This thing looks just like the drip irrigation from before he crossed over. It can supply Spiritual Qi directly to the roots. Although he has beavers helping, they only know how to water.
Plus, the dams and streams dug by the beavers make his yard a bit ssy. With this device, it could alleviate a lot.
So he imdiately spoke up, "Senior Jiang, I would like this item!"
His shout led other hesitant cultivators to give up. Although two hundred Spirit Stones were affordable, spending that just for convenience seed a bit excessive.
"Alright." The Jiang-nad female cultivator accepted his two hundred Spirit Stones, directly handing him the compact disk, and instructed: "One Spirit Stone can keep it operating for a week, rember to replace the Spirit Stone in ti."
"If it gets damaged, feel free to co to the Jiang Family’s Artifact Refining Workshop to seek out."
"Thank you, Senior."
Li Ye nodded and accepted the disk, quietly retreating.
He observed the items being sold by the cultivators, looking for anything useful.
One glance, and he suddenly noticed a book placed in front of a cultivator. That book looked ordinary and slightly yellowed.
But... it was a Spirit Beast!
[Na]: Locust Spirit Scroll
[Status]: Permanently dormant, cannot awaken without special forces
[Mood]: None
[Can be bound]: Any Spirit Plant capable of providing Spiritual Qi to awaken it.
Oh? A scroll transford from a Spirit Beast?
He suppressed the excitent in his heart and politely approached the cultivator, asking, "It seems what you are selling are old books and records, what profound magic might they contain?"
The cultivator quickly shook his head: "These are not profound magic texts, inside are so folk tales and strange stories.
My elder collected these things, really too much, so I wanted to trade so for Spirit Stones.
If you find it interesting, feel free to browse.
Each book is just one Spirit Stone."
Li Ye pretended to be curious, casually flipped through two books, then naturally picked up the "Locust Spirit Scroll" and opened it.
Unexpectedly, inside there were not only neat small seal script but also pictures.
It seed to be about a courtyard with a thousand-year-old locust tree, naturally of the Yin Attribute Spirit Plant type, which over years had developed so strange events.
Indeed, the story was quite interesting.
"I’ll take this one and this one!" Li Ye decisively pulled out two Spirit Stones and held the Locust Spirit Scroll and another book in his hands.
The book-selling cultivator was all smiles.
His ancestors had collected too many strange tales, piled high as a mountain, and he was just sneaky enough to see if he could exchange so for Spirit Stones.
Unexpectedly, soone was willing to exchange Spirit Stones for them.
Excitedly, he didn’t forget to try hooking this naive and generous Taoist Friend Li.
"I have more of these strange story books at ho."
"If you like them, co find my bookstall in the east corner of the market a month from now, I’m sure you’ll be satisfied with the stories!"
Li Ye nodded: "Sure."
He also looked forward to this book-selling Taoist Friend giving him so "surprises."
Both parties were very pleased with this transaction.
After purchasing a Magical Artifact and two books, Li Ye couldn’t find anything else he wanted, so he relaxed and enjoyed fresh fruits, pastries, and wines.
And so, this small Peach Garden gathering ended in laughter and joy.
By this ti, it was getting late.
Li Ye politely declined Taoist Friend Zhou’s invitation to travel together and returned to his ho in the glow of the sunset. First, he checked his Spirit Beasts and Spirit Plants, finding nothing amiss.
Then he placed the Earth Vein Comprehensive Plate underground, controlling it to insert iron pipes near the roots of Spiritual Plants like wheat, Water Gourd, and lotus, and instructed the beavers to pour water at the plate’s entrance.
The beavers, still as clever as ever, imdiately understood his intention, even dismantling so excess dams and returning the materials to reinforce their lair.
With fewer dams and waterways, the yard instantly seed much cleaner. The Earth Vein Comprehensive Plate also accurately delivered water to the soil layers of each Spiritual Plant, making it indeed much more convenient.
"Not having to work hard by hand is indeed a good feeling."
Li Ye holding the Locust Spirit Scroll took a stroll, still coming beside the lotus, feeling its Spiritual Qi is the most abundant at the mont.
Yet just when he tried to use the panel.
The lotus quivered, conveying a sense of fear, and even he felt sothing was amiss.
[Unable to bind, binding requires 2000 points of Vital Essence.]
This figure made Li Ye unconsciously swallow.
Two thousand points!
When he had previously bound the Second Tier Golden Red Dragon Carp, was it not just one hundred points? This directly skyrocketed to two thousand points. What level of Spirit Beast was it?
No way, could this be a Spirit Demon!
He looked down at this old book in his hands, if not for the panel clearly stating that without special circumstances, it would remain permanently dormant, he would have already thrown it away in fear!
Who would have thought it would be so terrifying?
