Chapter 773: Chapter 609: Cloud Gathering Immortal Assembly
After returning to Luoyun City.
Qin Ming continued cultivating Spirit Mushrooms, preparing to further trade with the Wood Crystal Race and establish connections with them.
Seasons came and went, as winter passed into spring.
Through several dealings, Qin Ming discovered that the physique and cultivation methods of the cultivators from the Wood Crystal Race were somewhat different from the Human Race.
For instance, the "Wood Spirit Technique" practiced by the girl in the green dress, whom Qin Ming had seen before, seemed to be a method of refining natural essence for one’s own use.
However, practicing this technique required certain Spirit Mushrooms, which the Red Willow would absorb to upgrade itself.
Several months later.
Xuu Han and his son returned to the shop to call upon Qin Ming, their storage pouches filled to the brim as they headed to the little market of the Wood Crystal Race for trade.
During these days.
When Qin Ming was cultivating Ink Spirit Mushrooms, he casually instructed them in some techniques.
This greatly doubled the output of Spirit Mushrooms, making the Xuu father and son look at ’Black Qin’ with newfound respect.
During this period, the two had made a fortune through trading Spirit Mushrooms.
Among the Qi Cultivation novices in Luoyun City, they were considered quite wealthy.
In the Wood Crystal Race’s market.
Upon seeing Qin Ming this time, Elder Wuh, though his cultivation level was higher, humbled himself and greeted Qin Ming warmly.
"Oh! It’s Younger Brother Qin and Younger Brother Xuu again!"
"Please, come in!"
After some polite exchanges,
they once again entered the loft for trade.
This time, the quantity of Spirit Mushrooms they brought was several times more than previous occasions, weighing several hundred kilograms.
This made Elder Wuh grin from ear to ear.
After the transaction, both parties settled up.
However, this time, Elder Wuh did not hurry them to leave but instead asked them to stay, saying:
"Please rest for a moment, my lady would like to personally meet the two of you."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ming’s heart skipped a beat; his interactions over the past period were finally yielding results.
The Xuu father and son also looked surprised.
After all, the lady Elder Wuh referred to was clearly a significant figure within the Wood Crystal Race.
They never imagined that she would personally summon them, mere Qi Cultivation novices.
Thus, Qin Ming and the others waited in the hall.
After half a stick of incense’s time.
A girl in a green dress, looking as ethereal as a fairy, slowly entered the loft.
Steward Wuh followed behind her respectfully, then smiled and introduced: "Miss Qian Mo, these are the Human Race cultivators. The Ink Spirit Mushrooms over the past year have all come from these two fellows."
"Moreover, both have clear backgrounds and honest capabilities. Fellow Daoist Xuu even saved this old man’s life, showing noble hearts and hands worthy of befriending."
Xuu Han and his son, along with Qin Ming, stood and saluted Qian Mo Fairy.
"Junior greets Senior Qian Mo!"
Xuu Han’s face flushed with excitement; he never thought he would one day meet a great figure of the Wood Crystal Race!
If recognized by her, success was just within reach!
Qian Mo Fairy’s voice was melodious and pleasant, like a nightingale in the forest: "No need for so many formalities from you two."
"The business with you two has been pleasant during this time. I have come to discuss further cooperation."
Xuu Han put on a smile: "I wonder how we might be of service to Senior Qian Mo; if it is within our means, we will certainly do our best."
Qian Mo Fairy of the Wood Crystal Race, with a touch of a smile on her pretty face, said, "The quantity of Ink Spirit Mushrooms is already sufficient. Given your outstanding Spirit Plant skills,"
"I would like to commission you to cultivate another type of Spirit Mushroom. If successful, our business will purchase them at a high price."
"Moreover, two years from now, when our clan hosts the ’Cloud Gathering Immortal Assembly’ at the Wansen Immortal City, I can extend a special invitation to both of you to attend."
"Cloud Gathering Immortal Assembly?" Hearing this, both Xuu Han father and son and Qin Ming were taken aback, as they had never heard of this before.
Mainly because Luoyun Immortal City of the Human Race is just a small city, mostly inhabited by mortals and Qi Cultivation cultivators, clearly lacking access to higher-level external information.
Seeing their reaction, Steward Wuh knew they wouldn’t be aware of it, so he explained:
"My young friends, the Cloud Gathering Immortal Assembly is a grand event our Wood Crystal Race hosts every three hundred years. It primarily involves exchanges with other races from the Red-Blue Immortal Wild and features a large-scale trade fair. Those invited are recognized forces."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ming and the others immediately understood.
As the other party further explained, the Cloud Gathering Immortal Assembly is quite massive, and its venue changes each time.
However, the location is always within a large Immortal City of the Wood Crystal Race.
This time it’s set for Wansen Immortal City.
With this, Qin Ming will have the chance to meet higher-tier Spirit Realm cultivators.
His previous plans have always been for this particular goal.
As such, Qin Ming asked, "I wonder what kind of Spirit Mushroom Senior Qian Mo wants us to cultivate?"
"It’s the Tier Two Low-Grade Red Sun Fire Spirit Mushroom, a type of Spirit Mushroom only our Wood Crystal Race possesses. I can provide you with the Spirit Seed Spores," said Qian Mo Fairy.
Originally, Xuu Han and his son were exhilarated at the opportunity to soar to great heights, but upon hearing it involved cultivating Tier Two Spirit Mushrooms, their enthusiasm was suddenly dampened.
He showed an awkward expression and hesitated for a moment before speaking truthfully: "To be honest, we are only Tier One High-Grade Spirit Plant Masters. Just cultivating these Ink Spirit Mushrooms is challenging enough, let alone the Tier Two Red Sun Fire Spirit Mushrooms..."
