Chapter 57 One Year's Harvest and Farewell

Huang Xishan obviously recognized this set of Formation.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, what items do you want to exchange for this Formation?" he asked directly.

Lin Zixiao smiled slightly, "As long as it is an item of equivalent value or Spirit Stones, either is fine."

"A set of Mid-Grade Magic Artifact Mysterious Yin Mother-Son Blades, what do you think about exchanging for it?" Huang Xishan said, then patted his Storage Bag and took out seven flying blades, flickering with faint red light, at a glance they were extraordinary Quality.

A set of Mid-Grade Magic Artifacts? What kind of Formation is this, to be worth exchanging for a set of Mid-Grade Magic Artifacts?

The other Cultivators became more and more eager as they watched.

Finally.

Pill Master Yan could not restrain himself, and took the lead to ask, "Fellow Daoist Lin, what kind of Formation do you have in your hand, what is its use, please tell us."

"This is the Yin Yang Reversal Illusion Formation, a set of Mid-Grade Composite Formation, the outside is an Illusion Formation, and the inside is hidden a Killing Formation.

It is a relatively unpopular Formation, almost non-existent on the market, unique to my family." Lin Zixiao finished introducing in a few short sentences, and a strong desire arose in everyone's eyes.

It is actually a Composite Formation.

Qin Ming was also very interested in this, but he really couldn't take out anything decent from his Storage Bag to exchange.

"May I ask Fellow Daoist Lin, how many Spirit Stones is this Formation worth?" Qin Ming asked bluntly.

Lin Zixiao said lightly, "At least eight hundred Spirit Stones are needed."

Qin Ming looked at Huang Xishan's set of Mid-Grade Magic Artifacts, which should also be of considerable value.

"I offer one thousand and two hundred Spirit Stones." Just as Qin Ming was pondering, Brothers Feng spoke again, and Huang Xishan's expression became even more unsightly.

"This old man offers one thousand and three hundred Spirit Stones." Pill Master Yan also made a bid.

For a time, this Yin Yang Reversal Illusion Formation became a hot commodity in everyone's eyes.

The exchange Scene turned into an Auction.

"In addition to this set of Mid-Grade Magic Artifacts, I will add five hundred Spirit Stones." Huang Xishan seemed determined to get this Formation.

He had already overpaid by shouting the price to this point.

After all, this was only a set of Mid-Grade Formation, and if he shouted higher, it would be over two thousand Spirit Stones.

Everyone looked at each other, and fell into silence.

No one raised the price any further.

Lin Zixiao was all smiles, seemingly very happy with this Scene.

Just when everyone thought that this Formation was about to belong to High-Grade Refiner Huang Xishan.

A faint voice sounded.

"I offer two thousand Spirit Stones." Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the bidder was actually Spirit Farmer Fellow Daoist Qin of the Fifth Layer of Qi Condensation.

He sat there silently, without saying a word, and when he bid, he immediately overwhelmed the entire Scene.

This price was enough to buy an ordinary High-Grade Formation.

But Qin Ming had seriously considered it.

This Formation was of great use to him.

If he arranged the Thorn Technique he cast using the Withered Blood Poison Vine Spirit Seed within the Formation.

Then it would be comparable to a triple Composite Formation.

The Formation's power would be greatly increased again, not inferior to a High-Grade Formation.

This was also the reason why he was willing to bid a high price.

With his final decision.

Everyone stopped bidding.

They were also stunned, unexpectedly this seemingly unremarkable Spirit Plant Master of the Fifth Layer of Qi Condensation was actually so rich.

In the end, Lin Zixiao's Mid-Grade Yin Yang Reversal Illusion Formation was acquired by Qin Ming.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, it's your turn." Qin Ming smiled, took out a bag of Spirit Rice from his Storage Bag, and then said, "Here are fifty Jin of Beast Tooth Rice, equivalent Spirit Stones and items are acceptable for exchange."

Although Spirit Rice had dropped in price, rare Spirit Rice like Beast Tooth Rice was still very popular.

"Whoa! It's actually Beast Tooth Rice, Fellow Daoist Qin is indeed a Mid-Grade Spirit Plant Master, even having such rare Spirit Rice." Pill Master Yan exclaimed in admiration, "This old man can offer one hundred Spirit Stones."

"I offer one hundred and forty Spirit Stones."

…

Afterwards.

The exchange meeting ended.

Everyone returned to their respective homes.

Qin Ming also had some gains.

In the days that followed, Qin Ming began Hard Cultivation, rarely leaving Qingyang Market City again.

…

Time flies.

Another year has passed.

Qin Ming spent his time between tedious cultivation and farming.

The area around Qingyang Market City had also become relatively stable.

During this year, Golden Cloud Valley and Spirit Feather Sect extensively searched for that Bandit gang, causing the surrounding Bandit Cultivators to also be greatly affected.

None of them dared to commit crimes against the wind during this period.

The Golden Spirit Rice in Qin Ming's Spirit Field had already been harvested for two seasons.

In addition to harvesting a [Weak Mana] Entry and a [Quality Enhancement] Entry in the first season.

In the second and third seasons of Golden Spirit Rice, Qin Ming also harvested three [Ripening] Entries and two [Weak Mana] Entries.

The Entries remaining in his Sea of Consciousness are currently: [Ripening] X5 [Rebirth Spirit Seed] X2 [Quality Enhancement] X1 [Weak Mana] X3 Under Qin Ming's diligent efforts to take care of them, three acres of Beast Tooth Rice had all turned into red and white Supreme Quality Beast Tooth Rice.

Its value is immeasurable.

Even Overseer Gu, who was always calm and collected, personally came to Qin Ming's Spirit Field to inspect the Spirit Rice, and praised him highly.

Du Haifu also stood beside him with a face full of smiles and said, "Fellow Daoist Qin, what you have grown this time is Supreme Quality Beast Tooth Rice, even the Spirit Plant Elder Within the Sect has been alarmed."

"Within the Sect has decided to exempt you from another ten percent of the Spirit Rice Tax.

From now on, Fellow Daoist Qin's Spirit Rice Tax will only need to pay thirty-five percent of the Tax."

Overseer Gu squeezed out a slight smile on his stern and serious face, "Little Qin, I wonder if you would part with some of the remaining Supreme Quality Beast Tooth Rice and sell it to this old man, this old man is willing to buy it at market price."

"Me, me too, Fellow Daoist Qin, I wonder if you would also sell some to me." Du Haifu also hurriedly followed up and asked.

Qin Ming replied awkwardly, "I have already signed an Agreement with Pavilion Lord Gu of Gathering Pavilion.

If there is any left, then it is possible to sell a portion."

Hearing that it was a Trade between Pavilion Lord Gu, the two had no choice but to give up helplessly.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, also congratulations to you, the High-Grade Demon Flame Herb and Top-Grade Seven-Leaf Baikal Skullcap Herb in your two acres of Herb Field have all matured.

The Elder responsible for recording and registering has already reported it.

Fellow Daoist Qin is now only one step away from becoming a High-Grade Spirit Planter!"

"I heard that this time an Elder from the inner Sect will personally be responsible for the Assessment." Du Haifu flattered with a face full of smiles.

Qin Ming becoming a High-Grade Spirit Planter was almost a certainty.

Then his status and position from now on will inevitably rise.

It is estimated that even Overseer Gu will have to address him as an equal.

It was precisely because of this reason that Overseer Gu and Du Haifu, even though they were extremely envious of the Supreme Quality Beast Tooth Rice, did not dare to exploit Qin Ming again.

The Mission that the Sect gave them was to try their best to persuade Qin Ming to plant more Beast Tooth Rice in the future.

"Come, come, come, Fellow Daoist Qin, you rest, I'll take care of this kind of rough work." Just as Qin Ming was about to harvest three acres of Beast Tooth Rice, Du Haifu snatched the Spirit Sickle from his hand and actively started harvesting.

After half a day.

Du Haifu stuck out his butt, sweating profusely.

The Spirit Rice Stalk of Supreme Quality Beast Tooth Rice was extremely tough, and it required some Magic Power to harvest.

He harvested all the Beast Tooth Rice.

Next was weighing it.

Du Haifu wiped the sweat from his forehead, and grinned as he took out the Large Measuring Artifact to start weighing.

"A total harvest of Supreme Quality Beast Tooth Rice, twelve Dan and eighty Jin."

"The Spirit Rice Tax to be paid is thirty-five percent, which is four hundred and forty-eight Jin!"

After paying the Spirit Rice Tax, Qin Ming still had a full eight hundred and thirty-two Jin of Supreme Quality Beast Tooth Rice left!

Qin Ming thought to himself, if Gu Qingzhao knew about this, she would probably be ecstatic.

After Overseer Gu and Du Haifu left with the people from Spirit Feather Sect.

Qin Ming sent a Message Talisman to Su Yuqing again, asking him to come and harvest Spirit Herbs.

After three incense sticks of time.

Su Yuqing arrived late.

"Brother Su, why are you so late today?"

Su Yuqing smiled, "Wasn't I packing up my things?" Qin Ming frowned when he heard this and asked, "Brother Su, are you really planning to leave the Cloud Marsh Great Wilderness?"

"Yes, that's right, actually I was just waiting for your Spirit Herbs to mature, otherwise I would have left some time ago." Su Yuqing was silent for a moment, then nodded and said.

Qin Ming didn't say anything more upon hearing this.

Su Yuqing walked to the Spirit Herb Field, saw the scene in front of him, and revealed a very surprised expression.

He harvested all the Spirit Herbs, took out one Demon Flame Grass and one Seven-Leaf Baikal Skullcap Herb from them and handed them to Qin Ming, "This is your share."

Qin Ming took the Spirit Herbs, took out two Jade Boxes, and placed them properly.

"Brother Qin, there is no banquet in the world that does not come to an end, let's part ways here.

I believe we will meet again one day.

I won't go back to the Slum Area, and I will leave from the Teleportation Formation Within the Market later." Su Yuqing glanced at Qin Ming and said with a smile.

"Hehe! But before I leave, you have to fulfill the Promise you promised me before."
