"Therefore, purchasing Spirit Pills is quite a headache."

Zhou Changwang frowned slightly, mainly because he didn’t have a fixed supply channel.

He could only buy them through the Black Market or other ways.

"Perhaps, I can ask Shuiyun Pavilion’s Pavilion Master Tang Yu Yan?

Being a Tributor at Shuiyun Pavilion, I should be able to apply for a purchasing quota for Spirit Pills."

Zhou Changwang muttered, then stood up.

Almost immediately, he arrived beside the Star Source Spirit Fruit Tree.

At this time, the Star Source Spirit Fruit Tree had officially passed the threshold of two hundred years of ring time; within the seven petals, a tiny fruit was faintly visible, forming and growing.

This scene truly made him excited and joyful.

"Only a hundred years of ring time left.

Although it now requires twenty bottles of Demon Beast Spiritual Liquid to increase its ring time by one year,

at least I see hope."

Zhou Changwang of course knew how terrifying its consumption was, but there was no other way.

If he wanted to grow the Star Source Spirit Fruit quickly, he had to keep casting and investing.

One hour later.

The age of the Star Source Spirit Fruit Tree had grown to two hundred and four years.

Zhou Changwang glanced at the Demon Beast Spiritual Liquid in his Storage Bag, there were only over three hundred bottles left.

At most, it could increase the ring time by a little over ten years.

Even if he extracted Demon Beast Spiritual Liquid from the two Second Grade Initial Tier Demon Pills, it would only grow the ring time by ten years...

Just then.

A fluctuation came from within the Mountain Gate’s Grand Array.

"Hmm?"

Zhou Changwang frowned slightly.

He looked towards the direction outside the door.

"Fairy Lianyu?

It’s not the day for the delivery yet, is it?"

Although Zhou Changwang thought this, he still opened the Grand Array.

Of course, before opening the Array gate, he did set up some concealment, shrouding the Spirit Field, including the Thunder Spirit Rice Tree, within the Fog Array.

"Fairy Lianyu, it’s not the scheduled day for delivering Spirit Plants today, is it."

Zhou Changwang inquired, continuing, "However, fortunately, I’ve been a bit diligent recently and managed to plant this month’s quota in advance."

Saying that, he directly handed over a Storage Bag.

Inside were the ten Spirit Charm Flowers and one hundred Qingyun Grass that he had prepared long ago.

"I didn’t come to collect Spirit Plants this time.

The Pavilion Master requests your presence!"

Hao Lianyu waved her hand, then spoke.

"The Pavilion Master requests?"

Zhou Changwang was taken aback.

Tang Yu Yan is really responsive? He just planned to ask her about buying Spirit Pills, and now she has summoned him?

"Is there something urgent?"

Immediately, he asked.

"It seems there is some urgent matter, likely related to Spirit Plants.

I still have to invite Tributor Li Pengfei, and then we’ll go together."

Hao Lianyu promptly replied.

"Alright."

Zhou Changwang nodded in agreement.

Hao Lianyu then hurriedly headed outside again.

After a stick of incense’s time passed, Zhou Changwang tidied up his things, and as he stepped out the door, he saw Hao Lianyu and Li Pengfei rushing over.

"Last time, many thanks to Fellow Daoist Zhou for your help.

If not, my Spirit Land would have been ruined."

Seeing Zhou Changwang, Li Pengfei cupped his hands and said.

"No problem.

It was just a trivial effort."

Zhou Changwang waved his hand and replied.

Upon seeing Hao Lianyu’s confused expression, Li Pengfei explained, "Last time, my Spirit Land was attacked by three Tribulation Cultivators.

Thanks to Fellow Daoist Zhou’s assistance in counterattacking them, it spared my Spirit Land from calamity.

Otherwise, the loss would have been incalculable."

He said this with a look of relief.

For a Spirit Plant Master, almost half of one’s wealth lies within the Spirit Field.

If the Array is broken, even if he escapes later, the Spirit Plants within the Spirit Land can’t, they’ll either be harvested completely or be destroyed, and all his efforts would be wasted.

He could never accept such an outcome.

Hao Lianyu nodded upon hearing this, having heard about the incident before, but didn’t know Zhou Changwang had helped Li Pengfei during it.
