Although Gu Mo was sowhat puzzled, he did not ask any questions. Inquiring into others' secrets was a taboo. However, despite both stepping into the second level of Qi Refinent, Chu Feifei chose to conceal her progress, while Yao Shifeng flaunted his.
Was he not afraid of being targeted by those with ill intentions? Or perhaps Yao Shifeng's fortuitous encounters made him unafraid of exposure.
Whatever the reason, Yao Shifeng had proven to everyone that their investnt in him was worthwhile, making this year's support a natural continuation. Last year, they had made an agreent—if they invested in Yao Shifeng, he had to show them results.
At this mont, Yao Shifeng had indeed exceeded everyone's expectations.
Accepting the 100 spirit stones from his sponsors, Yao Shifeng smiled. However, his excitent was clearly not as intense as the previous year. After all, he was now a second-level Qi Refinent cultivator, and with his improved cultivation, his perspective had also broadened.
In the future, when he reached the third level of Qi Refinent, the help these people could provide would beco increasingly insignificant. But for now, their support was still important to him.
To show his gratitude, Yao Shifeng shared so insights on cultivation and answered several questions from the group.
Gu Mo listened quietly. As soone already at the fourth level of Qi Refinent, Yao Shifeng's explanations were quite basic to him. In fact, he even noticed a few mistakes. Disguising his corrections as questions, Gu Mo subtly pointed out the errors.
Upon hearing Gu Mo's queries, both Yao Shifeng and Chu Feifei fell into deep thought. It was clear that they had recognized the mistakes. As for Hu Hai and Wu Jinfeng, they looked confused—this was the gap in their cultivation realms.
"Gu Mo, that's a great question!" After a long pause, Yao Shifeng's eyes glead as he seemingly found the answer.
Just as Yao Shifeng was about to articulate his response, Chu Feifei also lifted her head. She had evidently figured it out as well.
Their reactions revealed that Yao Shifeng possessed better comprehension ability, while Chu Feifei's unique physique granted her greater potential.
"Regarding this matter..."
Yao Shifeng explained his findings, his face brimming with excitent—the joy of resolving a cultivation-related flaw.
"Ladies and gentlen, let's conclude today's gathering here." Yao Shifeng stood up. After gaining insights from the recent discussion, he felt the need to return and absorb these realizations properly.
"Boss Yao, wait for !"
Wu Jinfeng quickly got up and chased after Yao Shifeng. Now that Yao Shifeng had reached the second level of Qi Refinent, Wu Jinfeng no longer saw him as a competitor. Instead, he wanted to strengthen their relationship, hoping for more support from him in the future.
"Gu Mo!"
Just as Gu Mo was about to leave, Hu Hai called out to him and handed him a wooden box containing several dicinal herbs.
"This is a gift in return for the spiritual rice from last ti. These herbs can heal injuries. Unfortunately, I don't know how to refine pills; otherwise, I could have turned them into healing elixirs. But using them directly still works." Hu Hai explained.
"Thank you!"
Although these herbs were of little use to Gu Mo, who had mastered the Minor Rejuvenation Technique, he accepted them out of courtesy, knowing they were a gesture of gratitude for the spiritual rice.
"Gu Mo, you're becoming harder to understand."
After Hu Hai left, Chu Feifei approached him. If she hadn't known his background, she wouldn't have suspected anything about his earlier questions. However, since she knew he was extraordinary, she felt that he had deliberately raised those questions—to subtly remind them of the mistakes.
"Aren't you the one who's hard to see through, Fairy Chu?" Gu Mo glanced at her. He had already seen through her concealed cultivation level but chose not to ntion it.
"Then I suppose we're even now," Chu Feifei chuckled. She had no intention of revealing that she had reached the second level of Qi Refinent. She preferred to remain hidden rather than flaunt her progress like Yao Shifeng.
"So, how's the preparation for repairing the formation disk?" Gu Mo shifted the topic.
"I can repair it for you now." Chu Feifei nodded. Over the past year, thanks to her high task completion rate, she had gained the qualification to repair basic formation patterns. Now that she had reached the second level of Qi Refinent, she was even more confident in fixing Gu Mo's formation disk.
"That's great!"
Hearing that his formation disk could be repaired, Gu Mo was delighted. The stronger the formation outside his spiritual field, the more Sunflowers he could grow. Even though each portion of Sun Essence currently only equaled two days of hard cultivation, as long as he increased the quantity, his cultivation speed would still rise significantly.
"This Gu Mo—he's definitely hiding his true cultivation."
As Chu Feifei stepped off Gu Mo's paper crane, she couldn't help but notice the difference. The last ti he carried her, it had been a struggle, but this ti, he seed completely at ease. It was clear that Gu Mo's cultivation had improved significantly.
However, rembering that she was also hiding her cultivation, Chu Feifei let the thought go.
Following Gu Mo through the illusion array, she was soon greeted by a lush spiritual field.
At first, she didn't pay much attention. It was only natural for a spiritual farr like Gu Mo to grow spirit rice. But soon, she realized sothing was off—the crops he was cultivating weren't Spirit Jade Rice.
Although she wasn't a spiritual farr, she could still recognize the most common type of spirit rice.
If it wasn't Spirit Jade Rice, then what was it?
With that thought, Chu Feifei examined the crops closely. However, not being well-versed in spiritual plants, she couldn't identify them.
But one thing she could tell was that these plants contained a dense spiritual aura.
Based on her judgnt, the crops Gu Mo was cultivating had to be at least first-grade high-tier.
The mont she reached that conclusion, her eyes filled with shock.
She didn't know how difficult it was to cultivate first-grade high-tier spiritual plants, but she could compare it to formations. Those who could set up first-grade high-tier formations were all official formation masters.
In other words, Gu Mo already possessed the capabilities of a true formation master.
"This is Water Spirit Rice. If you help repair the formation disk, I'll give you a few pounds as compensation." Seeing Chu Feifei's curiosity, Gu Mo spoke.
"This is Water Spirit Rice?!"
Chu Feifei's jaw dropped.
She had heard of Water Spirit Rice before—it was one of the best spiritual foods for Qi Refinent cultivators.
For those cultivating water-attribute techniques, Water Spirit Rice was the best spiritual food, bar none.
