Incredible Sect Simulator

After the random talent bestowed by Chu Qin was completed, the next day, Lu Yuanshan, following Lu Ping's instructions, began to guide Chu Qin in the study of talismans.

In the Library Pavilion of the Cyan Mountain Sect, there were plenty of books on talismans to guide Chu Qin into this field.

This introductory process would take approximately six months.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

Many disciples in the Cyan Mountain Sect, like Liiu Shiyao, Song Minghui, and others, became busy with sect tasks and frequently descended the mountain.

During this time, Lu Ping received two system dialog boxes.

All were notifications of Doorway Affairs.

[Doorway Affairs: Successfully resolved the locust plague in Jiangzhou County of the Chu Kingdom, task completed]

[Completion Rewards: Reputation 599, Elixir Formulas Locust Spirit Powder ×1]

...

[Doorway Affairs: Successfully cleared the official road in Zhao Family Village that was buried by a landslide, task completed]

[Completion Rewards: Reputation 430, Magical Artifact Earth Shield ×1]

...

These two Doorway Affairs were among the four new Doorway Affairs Lu Ping had explored before.

The one involving the Tiger Demon had already been assigned to Lu Zhiwei to complete earlier.

As of now, there was still one Doorway Affair left unfinished.

"Mediating the conflict between Dan Cloud Pavilion and Ruyi Tower in Qinghe Market. This kind of task should be easy to complete, so why has there been no progress yet?"

Reviewing the unfinished Doorway Affair, Lu Ping murmured to himself.

"Is this task very difficult?"

It shouldn't be considered difficult; one can only wait patiently. Perhaps it is still underway and hasn't been concluded yet.

Without pondering this further, Lu Ping briefly checked the task rewards.

Setting aside Reputation Points, one was the Elixir Formulas Locust Spirit Powder, and the other was the Magical Artifact Earth Shield.

According to the introduction, the Locust Spirit Powder, when refined, wasn't meant for cultivators to consume.

Instead, it's used to combat locusts.

Its wonderful use lies in the ability to disperse a poisonous fog that drives locusts into a frenzied state, causing them to devour each other and consume themselves internally.

To put it plainly, deploying the Locust Spirit Powder causes locust swarms to slaughter each other, inducing internal strife.

Its grade is only Tier One Top-Grade, making it an excellent method to tackle locust plagues.

The Cyan Mountain Sect might use this Elixir Formulas in the future to combat locust plagues; it's worth storing for later.

Additionally, the Earth Shield is a Tier Two Middle Grade earth attribute magical artifact, primarily for defense, and was added to the Sect's Treasury.

Disciples who take on and complete Doorway Affairs can earn Merit Points upon completion.

Through Merit Points, they can exchange for magical artifacts, elixirs, talismans, spirit stones, cultivation techniques, and other cultivation resources in the Sect's Treasury.

The Cyan Mountain Sect's Treasury also needs proper replenishment to keep it well-stocked.

Moreover, it's worth mentioning that after Lu Zhiwei slew the Tiger Demon in Apricot Flower Village, she returned to the sect the next day and refined three Tier Two magical artifacts from the Tiger Demon's body.

One Tier Two High-Grade, and two Tier Two Middle Grades.

She bestowed the Tier Two High-Grade 'Cyan Rainbow Blade' to Li Weimiao, making the young girl happy all day.

The other two were handed over to Lu Yuanshan and stored in the Sect's Treasury.

The flesh and blood of the Tiger Demon and the Sea-Overturning Flood Dragon were also made into ingredients in recent days, providing a nourishing supplement for the sect's disciples.

That's the situation with the Doorway Affairs.

Later that afternoon, Lu Ping received another piece of good news.

The Cyan Plum Tree planted last year had finally blossomed and borne fruit this year.

"The Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit is finally ripe."

Receiving the news from She Qingqing that the Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit was ready for harvest, Lu Yuanshan arrived at the Medicinal Garden that day, standing under a Cyan Plum Tree, gazing upwards.

There were three Cyan Plum Trees planted in the Medicinal Garden, each reaching Tier Two Middle Grade.

At this moment, the three Cyan Plum Trees were lush and verdant, branches heavy with leaves, and each cyan plum was green and round, about the size of a lychee, adorning the tree branches, making one's mouth water just looking at them.

Lu Yuanshan roughly estimated that, this time, they bore over three hundred Cyan Plum Spirit Fruits in total.

The yield wasn't very high, considered moderate among spirit plants like the Cyan Plum Tree.

But the Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit was quite valuable.

One Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit could be worth fifty spirit stones, which was several times the income of a Spiritual Peach.

This batch of Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit, in total, could be valued at around fifteen thousand spirit stones, enough to be equivalent to a Foundation Establishment Pill.

But Foundation Establishment Pills are hard to come by.

The Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit ripens once a year.

"Yuanshan, don't sell this batch of Cyan Plum Spirit Fruits externally; after harvesting, you and Zhiwei should split them for refining and cultivation to enhance your strength."

"The current financial situation of the sect is sufficient to maintain its operations, so there's no need to sell the Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit to supplement spirit stones."

During the harvesting of the Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit, Lu Ping was also observing, giving this command.

The original intent of exchanging for the Cyan Plum Tree was to enhance Lu Yuanshan's strength.

It wasn't meant to cultivate resources for earning spirit stones.

This time, the entire process of harvesting the Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit was managed by Lu Yuanshan, She Qingqing, and Li Weixiao.

They were very coordinated in harvesting from the Medicinal Garden.

"Okay, Father."

Lu Yuanshan responded, then called She Qingqing and Li Weixiao to start the action.

Knowing that a single Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit was valued at fifty spirit stones, She Qingqing's movements were very cautious.

Li Weixiao was the same, with delicate actions during the harvest, fearing to damage the Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit, making Lu Ping amused by the sight.

The three worked together, and it only took half an hour to finish harvesting the three Cyan Plum Trees.

The Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit, after consumption, could increase the cultivation level of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, currently the most valuable spirit plant within the Cyan Mountain Sect.

If given to a Qi Cultivator, its effect would be minimal, considered a waste of resources, and not worthwhile.

This batch of Cyan Plum Spirit Fruits was evenly divided between Lu Yuanshan and Lu Zhiwei, who immediately went into a Secluded Cultivation state to refine the Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit.

It has to be said that the Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit provided them significant benefits.

After spending a few days refining the entire batch of Cyan Plum Spirit Fruits, both of their cultivation levels saw a significant increase.

Lu Yuanshan's cultivation level made a breakthrough to the Third Layer Foundation Establishment.

Lu Zhiwei, on the other hand, broke through to the Second-Layer Foundation Establishment.

If they didn't consume the Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit, given their cultivation speed, even with the aid of a Cultivation Cave Mansion and accelerated cultivation methods, it would take at least over a year to achieve such accomplishments.

Yet with the aid of the Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit, it only took several days.

Witnessing the miraculous use of the Cyan Plum Spirit Fruit and the tremendous effect it had on enhancing Lu Zhiwei and Lu Yuanshan's cultivation levels, Lu Ping quickly realized the importance of the Cyan Plum Tree.

He needed to figure out a way to obtain one or two items of [Two-star - Resource Optimization] to enhance the grade of the Cyan Plum Tree.

If it could be improved from Tier Two Middle Grade to Tier Two High-Grade, the effects would only strengthen, and the number of Cyan Plum Spirit Fruits produced would increase.
