The second Spirit Insect Bag was slightly larger, around five feet in diameter, and he planned to place the Gold-Devouring Spirit Bees along with their hive inside.

The Gold-Devouring Spirit Bees, after a period of growth and reproduction, had indeed increased significantly in number.

Among them, the queen bee, although a low-tier Spirit Insect, had a much stronger aura than before, estimated to be at the Second-Layer Qi Cultivation level.

Among the worker bees, there were seven Bee Guards at the First-Layer Qi Cultivation level, larger than ordinary Spirit Bees, yet there were eighteen small Bee Guards that hadn’t reached the First-Layer Qi Cultivation level.

All these changes resulted from Zhou Changwang continuously feeding various Spirit Insects and the Five Poison Flesh and Blood.

As for the other worker bees, there were more than a hundred.

It could be said that his swarm of Gold-Devouring Spirit Bees had now formed a scale, and if they were to attack with full force, their combat power would certainly not be weak.

At the very least, when compared to the swarm of Black Needle Poison Bees of Insect King Xue Tong back then, even if they all swarmed out, they would surely not be a match for his Gold-Devouring Spirit Bees.

The third Spirit Insect Bag was also the largest, about seven feet in diameter.

A seven-foot-diameter Spirit Insect Bag was not small, equivalent to a two-meter cube by modern measurement units, which is about the size of the bathroom in a so-called thousand-square-foot mansion.

However, it still couldn’t contain this Centennial Spirit Tea Tree.

So, he had no choice but to starkly wield his axe and cut it down.

Of course, before doing so, he first had to dig out the roots.

As the saying goes, as tall as it is above, the roots are just as long below.

Zhou Changwang put considerable effort into digging out its roots: one main root, three secondary roots, thousands of root systems... fortunately, the roots, unlike the upper branches, could slightly bend and coil.

The main root system was crucial for the smooth growth of this Third-Grade Spirit Plant.

Therefore, Zhou Changwang began trimming the upper and lower parts of the Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree while preserving the integrity of the roots and branches as much as possible.

In this step, he was very careful.

After each cut, he would use the Withered Wood Revival Technique to maintain its vitality as much as possible.

He even gathered the pruned branches and roots together, used the Life-Cutting Finger, and then injected the extracted Vitality Spiritual Liquid into the trunk of the Centennial Spirit Tea Tree.

In this way, after half an hour.

The Hundred-Year-Old Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree, trimmed by thirty percent, appeared before him.

At this point, the Hundred-Year-Old Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree finally fit into that Spirit Insect Bag.

However, at this moment, he dared not act recklessly.

The Third-Grade Spirit Plant had extremely tenacious vitality but also an enormous demand for Spiritual Qi.

If left untreated, within a single night, it might ’wither and die’ due to insufficient Spiritual Qi; even if it didn’t wither, it might ’degrade’ to a Second-Grade Spirit Plant in order to survive...

This was not what he wanted.

He scanned with the Spirit Eye Technique.

It was indeed so.

A large amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was escaping from this Third-Grade Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree.

Without soil and the nourishment of Spiritual Qi, both its vitality and Spiritual Qi would slowly dissipate, and the foundation of the Hundred-Year-Old Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree, no matter how robust, could not endure such consumption.

Thus, Zhou Changwang quickly took out a large stack of Spirit Talismans from his Storage Bag.

This large stack of Spirit Talismans had all been drawn during this period as Sealing Talismans.

Apart from ordinary Spirit Talismans, there were more than a hundred High-Grade Talismans and fifteen Finished Talismans.

These were all drawn hastily after he promoted the Sealing Talisman to Great Success five days ago, and they came in handy at the moment.

He first took out a Finished Sealing Talisman, a Mid-Tier First Grade Sealing Talisman, and slapped it directly onto the roots of the Spirit Plant.

Immediately, the Sealing Talisman emitted a shimmering light, stamping on the Hundred-Year-Old Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree, significantly slowing the Spiritual Qi loss in that area, with only a slight leakage.

But aside from that place, the vitality and Spiritual Qi in other areas were still in a state of normal loss, so he hurriedly took out more Sealing Talismans and activated them.

One, two, three...

Soon, all fifteen Finished Sealing Talismans were activated and sealed onto this Third-Grade Spirit Plant, yet still couldn’t completely seal its vitality and Spiritual Qi.

So, he began to apply High-quality Sealing Talismans onto the Centennial Spirit Tea Tree.

A total of more than thirty were applied amidst patching and mending, finally sealing this Third-Grade Spirit Tea Tree completely, with no more vitality or Spiritual Qi leaking out.

"No wonder it’s a Third-Grade Spirit Plant; the consumption of Sealing Talismans is considerable.

If I truly spent Spirit Stone on purchasing them, it would cost at least five to six hundred Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.

Moreover, this is just the first sealing.

High-quality Sealing Talismans can only last fifteen days before failing.

Finished Sealing Talismans last merely a month.

This means that within a month, the Sealing Talismans need replacing, until this Third-Grade Spirit Plant is replanted... the longer the delay, the higher the cost."

Zhou Changwang looked at this scene, feeling slightly grateful in his heart.

Luckily, he was a Talisman Maker himself, able to learn to draw Sealing Talismans.

Otherwise, if he truly had to buy them, the cost would be exorbitant.

The main problem this time was he was leaving Fengming Dock Marketplace to head to Divine Wind Valley Marketplace, with no way to determine how much time it would take.

If the time exceeded more than a month, without his own Talisman making methods, there would be no opportunity to buy sealing or Sealing Talismans to contain the Spiritual Qi within this Third-Grade Spirit Plant, maintaining its vitality to be replanted into the Spirit Land or Spirit Field.
