Cultivating with Symbiosis Panel

More than three million Spirit Stones.

That doesn't even include that box of natural Spirit Stones.

——Those natural Spirit Stones came at just the right time; they'll definitely be far better than ordinary Spirit Stones for arranging the core of the Spirit Mechanism Array.

After surveying his Cave Mansion, Li Ye began his buying spree.

The goal this time was to completely refine the Cave Mansion, establish its foundation, and then plant the Spiritual Mechanism Vine.

Originally, he planned to buy a few more Spirit Veins near East Lake. After all, with such a large lake and the increasing number of things he'd be raising in the future, there was bound to be a shortage of Spiritual Qi.

However, the Enlightened Race's gift of the Abyss Mansion Clam contained a Fourth Tier Spirit Vein, and he didn't usually need that much Spiritual Qi. He could entirely use it to share with East Lake.

So, he saved on the Spirit Vein needed for East Lake.

After careful consideration, he also purchased a few Spirit Vein Willows and Third Tier Spirit Veins to ensure the stability of Spiritual Qi within the Cave Mansion.

Then, following the Spirit Plants and Spirit Beasts in each area, he bought a new batch, such as the Cloud Wave Mirage Flood Dragon in East Lake, various Primordial Spirit Plants, and various small Spirit Beasts.

This time, he didn't overthink it and didn't care about any bindings; it was mainly to fill the somewhat empty Cave Mansion.

So he bought very casually, buying everything without concern since buying in bulk was cheaper anyway.

After this replenishment, the interior of the Cave Mansion finally seemed lively, no longer as empty as before.

At least there were birds flying in the sky, insects chirping in the grass, and Spirit Beasts like rabbits and wolves frolicking and hunting.

As he stood atop the clouds overlooking his Cave Mansion, he thought it wasn't just an illusion——after having these Spirit Plants and Spirit Beasts, the Cave Mansion was significantly more vivid.

It felt increasingly comfortable, even the wind carried a natural, spiritual quality.

He even felt that the Jianmu within him showed slight changes after absorbing the external Spiritual Power.

That proved his method was correct:

Gradually replenish the Cave Mansion interior, making the internal Spiritual Power environment more akin to the outside natural environment.

Such an environment, which fosters complex Spiritual Power, would certainly benefit farming as well.

The cost of this was: all these things cost him a total of 1.5 million Spirit Stones.

"It's a necessary expense, just earn more after spending."

He convinced himself.

With the remaining Spirit Stones, he purchased a type of tree he had long been eyeing called the "Earth Element Spirit Tea Tree."

Unfortunately, he could only afford one, because a single tree cost one million Spirit Stones, depleting all the contribution points he had painstakingly accumulated in the sect.

Additionally, each Cave Mansion was only allowed to have one of these tea trees.

"However..."

As Li Ye looked at the Earth Element Tea Tree he purchased, he couldn't help but mutter: "You're actually such a large tree."

——Before him was a gigantic tree with needle-like leaves, covering an area of about five acres.

The dense branches formed structures resembling layered canopies.

The color of the branches varied at each layer, consisting of yellow, gold, blue, red, and green hues.

At the topmost layer, the trunk almost pierced into the clouds, with its white leaves merging indistinguishably with the mist, as if holding up a cloud.

Its coverage was just slightly smaller than that of the Mist-Imbibing Magnolia Tree.

But its Spiritual Power far exceeded the latter...

This tea tree's Spiritual Power level was already at the Golden Core Period.

One million Spirit Stones plus over three thousand contribution points bought a Golden Core level Spirit Wood.

That's outrageous just to say out loud.

A Golden Core level Spirit Wood, and it's even a Spirit Tea Tree that can have a set price.

But over three thousand contribution points came from Li Ye's continuous invention of new things.

Along with the one-time reward after resolving the Dongcang Town in the Hungry Ghost Netherworld, it added up to that much.

Normally, unless you're some Immortal's descendant, you'd need to be at the Golden Core level to afford it.

A Golden Core level Earth Element Tea Tree naturally possessed spiritual intelligence.

It sensed Li Ye's presence and proactively extended a branch towards him.

On the lush branch was a small, unobtrusive gray circular leaf that was hardly noticeable without careful observation.

This leaf was a perfectly circular shape, with a fissure in the middle, resembling a Yin Yang Diagram.

However, this Yin Yang Diagram was currently a dull gray.

This was the true "Earth Element Tea Leaf" of the Earth Element Tea Tree.

All the other leaves were just plain leaves.

According to the information he saw at the time of purchase, the Earth Element Tea Tree could change based on the shifts in Yin Yang and Five Elements Spiritual Qi within a closed space.

For example, if Yang Wood Qi was too abundant, the yang side would light up and turn into the color of Jia Wood.

If Yin Wood Qi was too abundant, the yin side would light up and turn into the color of Yi Wood.

If both sides of the Earth Element Tea Leaf could simultaneously light up, showing a Yin Yang division with a black and white pattern, it indicated that the Yin Yang Five Elements Qi within the Cave Mansion had become stable.

It could then enter its next growth stage.

This characteristic was one of the reasons Li Ye purchased it.

Owning this tea tree allowed him to not only harvest Earth Element Tea Leaves for sale but also monitor the changes in Yin Yang attributes within the Cave Mansion.

"Come on."

"Let me see how my Cave Mansion is doing now."

Li Ye pressed his fingers against the branch of the Earth Element Tea Tree, and the tree instantly radiated an intangible wave, spreading like a tide towards the distance.

Some unique Spiritual Qi it needed was absorbed by it.

Then.

The colors on the leaf it extended immediately changed, lighting up the Yin and Yang sides at once, though the main colors were blue, green, and yellow.
