"One Annual Ring Skill equates to a growth effect of one and a half months?"

Zhou Changwang quickly made this judgment.

However, correspondingly, the previous bottle of Vitality Spiritual Liquid was completely consumed.

He hurriedly took out another bottle and, using the Life-Cutting Finger, infused it into the Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree.

One bottle, two bottles, three bottles...

When he reached the ninth bottle.

Zhou Changwang’s Life-Cutting Finger also achieved Great Success.

Originally, it required two to three times to infuse an entire bottle of Vitality Spiritual Liquid into the Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree, but now it could be done in one go.

Of course, the effect of absorbing the vitality within the Spirit Plant was also more terrifying.

It was estimated that with one finger, he could completely extract a Spirit Wood that was about thirty years old.

Finally, when the last bottle of Vitality Spiritual Liquid was infused into the Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree and then Zhou Changwang used the Annual Ring Skill to increase its annual rings, the entire Spirit Tea Tree grew even more robust.

And its age was also elevated to seventy-eight years.

A Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree aged seventy-eight years, wasn’t young anymore.

The Spirit Tea Leaves it produced were of equally high value.

"But it ultimately hasn’t reached a century.

And the Vitality Spiritual Liquid is completely exhausted."

Zhou Changwang sighed helplessly.

There was nothing to be done about it.

The Spirit Plants beneath the cliff had essentially been scavenged by him; even after four to five hours, he couldn’t extract three bottles of Vitality Spiritual Liquid.

Going elsewhere for more was too far away and would take even longer.

Not worth the effort!

As for purchasing more?

Not only the cost, but last time, he had already bought out all the Vitality Spiritual Liquid in the market.

Even if the stock was replenished, it wouldn’t be much, twenty bottles at most.

To him, it was simply not enough.

"For now, I can only give up.

I can’t let these Red Leaf Spirit Tea Leaves affect my regular trade with Luoxia Fairy."

The agreed trading time was fast approaching.

He naturally understood the importance of the matter.

Then, he cast one Annual Ring Skill spell after another on the Spirit Gathering Grass.

The Annual Ring Skill, now at Great Success, once again increased in casting range, with one spell covering more than an acre.

Coupled with the growth acceleration unique to the Annual Ring Skill, the Spirit Gathering Grass in the Spirit Field grew at an even faster pace.

Three days later.

The Spirit Gathering Grass was fully mature.

The maturity period for Spirit Gathering Grass is extremely short; if not harvested in time, the stems and leaves will turn black, transforming into Poison Spirit Grass, greatly reducing its value.

Thus, seeing that all the Spirit Gathering Grass was mature, he didn’t hesitate and immediately began harvesting.

Having experience from a previous harvest, he knew that the most valuable part of the Spirit Gathering Grass was the leaves on the stalks.

So this time, he did not pull them up by the roots but rather harvested above the stalks with a sickle.

One precise cut at a time, one plant at a time.

Zhou Changwang quickly busied himself in the Spirit Field.

Even though the stalks of the Spirit Gathering Grass were very tough, Zhou Changwang, having mastered the Celestial Essence Eight Techniques, was now as powerful as the Rakshasa Gang leader who ambushed him earlier.

Although he had not reached the Fifth Layer of Body Refining, he was at the Fourth Layer, exuding tremendous power with every move.

So doing these tasks was not tiring at all.

One hour later, he had harvested most of the Spirit Gathering Grass in the five-acre Spirit Field. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

But at this point, he stopped working.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to harvest all the Spirit Gathering Grass; rather, the Spirit Gathering Grass didn’t mature uniformly.

Especially since he used the Annual Ring Skill for cultivation, inevitably some Spirit Gathering Grass received ’overlapping’ coverage, enjoying more of the Annual Ring Skill’s effects.

And its maturity period was extremely short, only three days; after three days, the purple leaves would turn black and become Poison Spirit Grass.

So, there were about a hundred plants in this phase; due to the slower harvesting time, some leaves had already turned black and transformed into Poison Spirit Grass.

Poison Spirit Grass, ten plants were only worth as much as one Spirit Gathering Grass.

Regarding this, Zhou Changwang had to abandon the harvest, intending to let them ’bear fruit,’ and cultivate Spirit Seeds.

A single Poison Spirit Grass, after growing for about a month, could produce seeds and bear Spirit Seeds, from which one plant could yield fifty to seventy Spirit Seeds.

After arranging all the Spirit Gathering Grass into the Storage Bag, Zhou Changwang returned to the Spirit Field, where he began casting the Annual Ring Skill one by one to collect Spirit Seeds.

Fortunately, the Spirit Field had an abundance of Spiritual Qi.

The clustered Spiritual Qi around hadn’t dispersed yet.

Therefore, even though the effect of his Annual Ring Skill was formidable, causing an individual Poison Spirit Grass to grow for an entire year, under Zhou Changwang’s control, it just reached the point of bearing Spirit Seeds.

Then, he controlled the Annual Ring Spiritual Light to fall on the other Poison Spirit Grass.

The Annual Ring Skill was enough to mature ten Poison Spirit Grass plants.

Then he began collecting Spirit Seeds.

Sixty to seventy per plant, hundreds of plants resulting in six to seven thousand Spirit Seeds.

"Collecting these Spirit Seeds means next time I want to plant Spirit Gathering Grass, I don’t have to purchase from the Spirit Plant Hall.

I can plant them directly; seven thousand seeds are worth about two hundred Lower-Grade Spirit Stones, which isn’t less than the normal selling price for Spirit Gathering Grass."

Zhou Changwang calculated silently; one hundred and twenty Spirit Gathering Grass plants transforming into Poison Spirit Grass, if calculated at Shen Xinyue’s previous purchase price of one and a half Lower-Grade Spirit Stones per plant, amounted to one hundred and eighty Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.

However, the Spirit Gathering Grass seeds he cultivated were priced at one Lower-Grade Spirit Stone for thirty seeds at the Spirit Plant Hall; seven thousand seeds equaled more than two hundred thirty Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.
