Sleeping for a second increases my blood energy. I become the strongest sky-swallowing snake

“…”

Ling Yunzi looked at Xu Chengxian as if he were an idiot.

He wanted to scold him with his eyes.

Remember the first website domain name 𝕥 𝕨 𝕜 𝕒 𝕟 . 𝕔 𝕠 𝕞

But he helplessly discovered that this guy was still engrossed in eating.

He didn't even look at him.

Helpless, he had to say, "Does this seat look like someone who wouldn't even think of this?"

Xu Chengxian thought to himself, that's really hard to say.

It's not that Ling Yunzi is stupid.

Judging from Daojun's younger brother's previous performance, when this guy was weak, because of his good aptitude, the sect supported him.

After leaving the sect, his strength became very strong again.

Putting aside everything else, with his skills in alchemy and weapon refinement alone, would he still need to worry about resources in the Eastern Earth Human Realm?

There would be people holding things and begging him.

Not knowing how to buy spirit plants from the demon race is also reasonable.

“Could it be that you can't buy them?”

“It's that you can't buy them.” Ling Xiao also walked back when he heard them talking about spirit plants and pill formulas.

The natural treasures needed for alchemy, even some that cannot be cultivated, are protected by sects in the human race who uphold the belief of inheritance.

The Northern Wilderness Mountains where the demon race is located have many unique spiritual veins.

In addition, their cultivation techniques do not require pills as much as human cultivators do.

Most of the various spiritual materials rely on natural nourishment.

Various ranks of demon beasts, as well as demon clans with different cultivation levels, often swallow spiritual plants and herbs in one gulp when they encounter them.

The demon race still firmly believes in the simple idea that only what is in their stomach is truly theirs.

For example, when they hunted the Mountain Shaking Boar, they dug out the Spirit Root Clear Heart Grass from its stomach.

“In this regard, you are more demonic than the demon race, you should be able to understand, right?”

“…” Xu Chengxian heard mockery in his words.

Next, Ling Xiao explained in a few words why spirit plants could not be bought.

It's not that they can't be bought at all, it's just very difficult.

And very expensive.

“This seat previously intended to refine pills that enhance cultivation, such as the Spirit Replenishing Pill.” Ling Yunzi said.

Cultivating with the help of pills, as long as it is moderate, can be twice the result with half the effort.

So after he transformed, he inquired about the market conditions of spiritual materials.

Only the royal city has special places to cultivate spirit plants and herbs and preserve spiritual materials.

Occasionally, the demon king will issue an order to collect spiritual materials.

Some demon marquises, demon commanders, and demon generals will issue rewards when they need them.

In other words, the best way to have sufficient spiritual materials for alchemy is to rely on these strong individuals.

There are also merchant groups in the demon race that do business in spiritual materials.

Southern Continent, the endless sea around it.

The Northern Wilderness Mountains have the Chaos Secret Realm.

Among them are descendants of Primordial Beasts that cannot transform.

This is the source of a large amount of spirit meat for the demon race.

Compared to spirit meat, there are also five elements of spirit mines and the like, which are easy to mine, refine, and preserve. The harvesting and sealing of spirit plants, however, require special techniques.

If not properly preserved, the medicinal effect will be greatly reduced.

Sometimes, different parts of a spirit plant, such as the flower, fruit, and root, need to be harvested using different methods.

Therefore, the price is even more expensive.

In addition, there are many types of spirit plants, and it is impossible for the Spirit Item Pavilion to have every kind in stock. Moreover, the same kind of spirit plant has lower, middle, higher, and top grades.

If the pavilion does not have suitable spiritual materials, the buyer needs to pay a deposit first and request a purchase based on their own situation.

“Although we have some spirit stones on hand, it's not enough to buy spirit plants, let alone order them.” Ling Xiao said helplessly.

However, only by collecting all the spiritual materials can pills be refined.

Buying a few of them is of no use.

“Lack of money?” Xu Chengxian was stunned.

This problem is not easy to solve.

In his previous life, he lacked it for most of his life.

But even if he can't buy spirit plants, he still has a way.

“Then, why don't we grow them ourselves?”

“Can't we buy seeds if we can't buy finished spirit herbs?”

“Grow spirit plants?” Ling Xiao smiled, “Did you think I didn't think of that?”

She not only thought of it, but had already been planning for two years.

After all, she had been an emperor of a dynasty, how could she not know the benefits of hoarding resources?

Luring the little demons to mine spirit stones, collect spirit fruits, spirit roots, spirit seeds, and so on.

Every time Luyang Mountain, Wolf Green, or Tiger Roar went to the demon cities under the demon commander, she would ask them to collect some spirit seeds back.

Their molted skins, the accumulated spirit stones, and the few remaining Transformation Pills that Ling Yunzi refined were all used for exchange.

How could they waste the golden water monkey at home who could cultivate spirit fields and plant and cultivate spirit plants?

She took great care of the spirit plants on Dai Dai's back.

Demon beast blood, waste spirit stones, and even spirit stones, as long as Great Sage wanted them, she would give them without hesitation.

However, Great Sage used Spirit Gathering Grass and Spirit Locking Grass to set up a Spirit Gathering Array, plus they now exclusively occupy a spiritual vein, the spiritual energy is enough for those spirit plants to grow.

The Spirit Gathering Grass is now almost entering its maturity period.

It's just that increasing the number of spirit plants has yielded very little.

“Why?”

“Seeds are few and expensive.”

“Seeds are also very expensive?” Xu Chengxian was very puzzled.

It is understandable that spirit plants are expensive.

Why are the seeds so expensive?

No demon race plants them, and spirit plant planting is not easy, troublesome, and time-consuming.

Then shouldn't these seeds be sold cheaply?

“Quite the opposite.”

Spirit plants are harvested and refined into medicine when they mature, so seeds are rare.

Except for the royal city, few places in the demon race cultivate spirit plants.

In other words, there is a Spirit Item Pavilion to buy spirit plants.

There is really no place to buy spirit plant seeds or seedlings.

“At first, Your Majesty wanted to buy seedlings.” Ling Yunzi twitched his lips, “Tiger Roar even laughed at me.”

“Hmph! I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. It seems I should find a chance to beat that big cat.” Ling Xiao said, “Admonishment always comes with risks!”

“I understand.” Xu Chengxian said.

The Northern Wilderness, which relies on mountain spiritual veins and eats wild spirit plants from heaven and earth, does not have a market for selling these two things.

Even if the value of things that are not low in themselves is derived, without forming a large-scale production and supply, buying them will only be difficult and expensive.

Instead of the imagined low-price sale.

“Gathering the spiritual materials for the Transformation Pill seems to be going quite smoothly?” Xu Chengxian thought of the situation when refining the Transformation Pill last time.

“The refinement of the Transformation Pill is so smooth because it is the most needed pill among the demon race.” Ling Xiao said, “Many demon beasts who aspire to cultivate to transformation will also make preparations in advance.”

Among them, the most expensive and rare is the Transformation Grass.

And they happen to have it in their hands.

The other spirit plants and auxiliary materials were also quickly found.

“No wonder the Great White Ape happened to have Water Cloud Stone in his hand.” Xu Chengxian also thought of one of the spiritual materials he exchanged at that time.

It hasn't been long since then, he remembers it very clearly.

The White Ape is very smart, he hoards the Water Cloud Stone, which is indispensable for alchemy.

“Most of the other things needed in the Transformation Pill were also exchanged by me from the demon beasts living in the spiritual vein cave.” Ling Xiao said, “Especially the demon beasts above the seventh rank.”

“Especially a few ninth-rank demon beasts, they have a lot of spiritual materials, but most of them are unwilling to exchange them.”

At that time, Ling Yunzi did not show his alchemy skills.

So, she spent a lot of effort to get some of the wealthy spiritual materials in hand.

“Speaking of which, the Great White Ape trusts us quite a bit.” Xu Chengxian began to have ideas in his heart.

“Then now, these former neighbors should trust your alchemy, right?” He asked Ling Yunzi.

After all, Ling Yunzi refined both Transformation Pills very successfully.

Moreover, he also has the ability to refine weapons.

“That's for sure.”

The White Ape has already obtained the Transformation Pill.

As for the quality of the Transformation Pill, everyone must know it in their hearts.

The three new great demons added to Luyang Mountain, two of them are perfectly transformed.

“Hmm? What are you asking this for?” Ling Xiao raised an eyebrow.

“If we promise to refine Transformation Pills when they need them, will they be willing to give us the spiritual materials?”

“Most likely.” Ling Xiao said thoughtfully. “But what does this have to do with the spirit plants we need?”

Spirit Replenishing Pills and other pills are not Transformation Pills.

It is not something that demon beasts must have for cultivation.

“Follow the same pattern? But they may not have the spiritual materials to refine Spirit Replenishing Pills in their hands.”

“It doesn't matter, if they don't have it, they can find a way to find it!” Xu Chengxian smiled slyly.

“Sister Empress, Brother Daojun, how about we start a spirit plant bank together?”
