Zhou Changwang consoled himself.

Then he returned to the courtyard, started a fire to cook, and meditated to recover from the continuous casting consumption.

Then on the second day, another fifty bottles, the third day, the fourth day...

On the fourth day, as the last bottle of Vitality Spiritual Liquid was injected into the Star Source Spirit Fruit Tree.

The height of the Star Source Spirit Fruit Tree hadn’t grown much, but the tree itself had become much sturdier.

Moreover, it’s worth mentioning that the bark now had a metallic sheen.

"Is this because it absorbed the nutrients from the Spiritual Ore?"

Seeing this, Zhou Changwang began carefully inspecting the buried Spiritual Ore underground.

As expected, he found that many Spiritual Ores had completely lost their luster, the Spiritual Qi depleted, and all the various spiritual energy elements inside the ores had been absorbed, turning them into ordinary stones, which, when crushed by the Spirit Soil, became dust and turned into ordinary sand and grit.

"Though it consumed a lot, this counts as good news, at least it shows that it’s growing normally."

Zhou Changwang muttered, his Heart Spirit stirred, and he naturally cast a Magic.

Spirit Listening Technique!

This was the Magic he had just acquired and had now mastered through cultivation.

The Spirit Listening Technique landed on the Star Source Spirit Fruit, and almost instantly, a special emotion emerged in Zhou Changwang’s heart, allowing him to sense and hear some of the Star Source Spirit Fruit’s requests.

While it sounds complicated, it’s actually akin to a kind of empathy.

Similar to the Calming Technique.

Except the Calming Technique works on Spirit Beasts and Demon Beasts, while this Spirit Listening Technique works on Spirit Plants.

"The Spirit Qi within the Spirit Soil is insufficient? Not enough for its daily consumption?"

Zhou Changwang frowned.

He looked at the Spirit Soil on the ground.

Second-Grade High-Rank Spirit Soil is certainly not bad.

But after all, the Star Source Spirit Fruit Tree is a Third-Grade Spirit Plant that grows best in a Third-Grade Spirit Field.

Regarding this, Zhou Changwang was helpless, as he had no better solution.

Moreover, as the last bottle of Vitality Spiritual Liquid was absorbed and turned into nourishment for growth, the feeling of Spiritual Qi deficiency would persist.

"Upgrading a Spirit Vein is not something an average person can achieve.

Although the Array Dao Explanation mentions that one can ’hatch’ a Spirit Vein using the Array to assist its advancement.

But it often requires enormous resources to fill.

Typically, only major powers are capable of doing this."

Zhou Changwang sighed.

Another few spells of Annual Ring Skill fell.

"Finally, it’s been accelerated to the level of eighty Ring Time.

It still needs another twenty years to bloom, and another one hundred and twenty years to bear fruit..."

Zhou Changwang watched the Star Source Spirit Fruit Tree, feeling helpless with no better solution.

Fortunately, he still had Spirit Stones on him.

Last time, after slaying that pair of dual evils, he managed to acquire fourteen thousand Lower-Grade Spirit Stones, which should be enough to buy over two hundred bottles of Vitality Spiritual Liquid.

If he sold those Dharma Artifact Materials, he could gain an additional fifteen thousand Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.

Altogether, that’s nearly thirty thousand Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.

However, a marketplace’s supply of Vitality Spiritual Liquid is actually limited.

It’s all extracted little by little by Spirit Plant Masters using the Life-Cutting Finger, and many Spirit Plant Masters use it themselves, with very little available for sale.

He had just bought a batch a few days ago, so going to buy more now might not yield much.

Restocking also takes some time.

The quantity he purchased this time was already enough for a marketplace’s consumption for a month, buying it all at once could even cause the price of Vitality Spiritual Liquid to rise.

Then the cost would be even higher.

...

Afterward, Zhou Changwang put his thoughts into planting other Spirit Plants.

Apart from the regular daily Magic irrigation of Qingyun Grass and Spirit Charm Flower, Zhou Changwang spent the most time each day on planting the Thunder Spirit Rice Tree.

After another few days of careful selection.

The Thunder Spirit Rice he planted finally all transformed into High-Tier First Grade Spirit Rice.

Each grain was full, rich in Spiritual Qi, and faintly coursing with the Power of Thunder and Lightning.

"Next, I need to think about large-scale planting.

Planting an acre should ensure I won’t have to worry about Spirit Rice for the next one or two years."

Zhou Changwang’s thoughts flickered as he looked toward a plot of Spirit Field he had intentionally left empty.

...

Seeking for some monthly tickets. It’s the end of the month, aiming to reach a thousand votes.
