Chapter 672: Chapter 254: Family Great Formation Completed, Planting Trees!_3 “` “However, once I’ve arranged all thirty-six Oceanic Beads into a formation, this problem will naturally be resolved.” Ling Zixiao spoke. “Zi Xiao, thank you for your hard work.” Lu Changsheng said warmly, holding Ling Zixiao’s delicate, white hand. “Lu Lang need not be so formal, as a member of the family, I should do my part for the family.” Ling Zixiao replied with a gentle smile. She had known Lu Changsheng for three and a half years. During those three and a half years, she had not completely fallen in love with Lu Changsheng, but her feelings had grown considerably. Especially in this past year, due to serious injuries, Lu Changsheng gave her the most company and attention. And every half month, Lu Miaoge would come to treat her, nurturing her meridians and Dantian. She wouldn’t speak too much about these things, but she kept all of them in her heart. Since Lu Changsheng was willing to offer genuine feelings, she was naturally prepared to respond in kind, heart for heart. “Zi Xiao, you should have a formation to hide a Third Rank Spirit Plant on you, right?” Lu Changsheng asked Ling Zixiao. Now that the family’s Great Formation was completely set up, he was also preparing to plant the Luminous Treasure Tree. “Third Rank Spirit Plant!?” Hearing this, Ling Zixiao was somewhat surprised. It should be known that Third Rank Spirit Plants, also known as Heavenly Spirit Plants, were extremely precious and rare. Apart from some Secret Realms or Immortal Sects, few powers cultivated Third Rank Spirit Plants. First of all, such Spirit Plants were rare and not easy to come by; to transplant them to one’s own home was very difficult. Even if you managed to transplant them, if the soil or environment was unsuitable, there was a risk of causing the plant to die, thus wasting heaven’s gift. Another point was that they were difficult to cultivate! Third Rank Spirit Plants needed to be at least planted on a Second Grade Spirit Vein. The amount of Spiritual Energy they required was no less than what a Foundation Establishment Cultivator needed for cultivation. To cultivate them properly, it was best to plant them on a Third Grade Spirit Vein. “Will you be planting the Third Rank Spirit Plant here, my Lord?” “Now on Bi Lake Mountain, only Bi Yun Peak is a Second Grade Spirit Vein…” Ling Zixiao didn’t question how Lu Changsheng got a Third Rank Spirit Plant. After all, in her eyes, Lu Changsheng was extremely mysterious, and having a Third Rank Spirit Plant was plausible. But through their time together, she knew that Lu Changsheng’s knowledge of the Cultivation World was limited, and she worried that he might not be aware of these things. “I’ve always reserved a section at the back cliff of Lingcui Cliff for planting this Spirit Plant.” “With the conditions at Lingcui Cliff, it is barely sufficient for cultivating the plant.” “As for plans for Bi Yun Peak, I will arrange that later,” Lu Changsheng said. He intended to plant the Mount Sumeru Tree King on Bi Yun Peak. Furthermore, he, Ling Zixiao, and Lu Miaoge would also need to cultivate on Bi Yun Peak in the future. If he were to plant both the Luminous Treasure Tree and the Mount Sumeru Tree King on Bi Yun Peak, it would severely affect the Spiritual Energy balance of the peak. As for planting the Luminous Treasure Tree at Lingcui Cliff, he had asked Zhao Qingqing previously, who said that while growth might be somewhat affected, normally there should be no significant problems. “If the Spirit Plant is not too big, and you simply wish to conceal it and isolate its aura, I have a set of ‘The Celestial Canopy Formation’ that should do,” Ling Zixiao said after some thought. Lu Changsheng considered this and said, “It’s not very large, but it’s not small either.” Soon after, the two arrived at Lingcui Cliff. “Greetings, Mountain Master, greetings, Lady!” “Father, Aunt Ling!” The Cultivators and children on Lingcui Cliff immediately paid their respects upon seeing Lu Changsheng and Ling Zixiao. Because Lu Changsheng disliked the term ‘elder ancestor’ and everyone in the family was not old, the family Cultivators called him Mountain Master, while they referred to Ling Zixiao and Lu Miaoge, the two Foundation Establishment Cultivators, as Ladies. Similarly, some concubines also addressed Ling Zixiao and Lu Miaoge in this manner. Only Lu Miaoyun, Lu Miaohuan, and Qu Zhenzhen, who were relatively close, referred to them as sisters. “Alright.” Lu Changsheng nodded in acknowledgement and proceeded to the Lingtian District he had reserved with Ling Zixiao. “Is this where you intend to plant the Third Rank Spirit Plant, my Lord?” Ling Zixiao inquired, looking at Lu Changsheng. “That’s right.” Lu Changsheng nodded. “Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—” Ling Zixiao nodded and tapped her Storage Bag with her palm. An Array Plate appeared, and numerous array flags scattered out, as she began to form the needed spell and set up the formation. The ‘Celestial Canopy Formation,’ being a simplified formation with both an array plate and array flags, was completed in a short time. She activated the formation, filling the surrounding area with a faint white glow, concealing the sector from view. “Retrieve it.” Observing the formation, Lu Changsheng took the Profound Origin Bead from his Dantian, then with a subtle nudge of his Mental Spirit, he extracted the Luminous Treasure Tree from the System Space. As mana flowed from within the Profound Origin Bead, a tree nearly ten feet tall and as thick as a water tank, devoid of leaves, with cracked and coarse bark, but shimmering with a vivacious blue-gold hue, appeared. It was indeed the Luminous Treasure Tree! The whole tree looked somewhat unattractive, making it difficult for one to associate it with a Third Rank Spirit Plant. In fact, it appeared more like a long, massive rock. However, the roots of the tree shone with blue-gold light, brimming with a rich vitality, revealing the tree’s extraordinary nature. “This is my Third Rank Spirit Plant, the Luminous Treasure Tree, which has been well-preserved within a treasure of Cave Heaven,” explained Lu Changsheng. Although he knew the general appearance of the Luminous Treasure Tree through the System Space, seeing the actual tree in front of him, he still felt it was somewhat ugly. He thought to himself, wondering if Lu Miaoyun and the others, who would cultivate the Heavenly Longevity Technique, might find it unappealing. “The Luminous Treasure Tree? A treasure of Cave Heaven?” Ling Zixiao turned to glance at Lu Changsheng, feeling an even deeper veil of mystery enveloping him. Not only did he possess such a precious and rare Third Rank Spirit Plant, but he also had a legendary treasure of Cave Heaven that could directly store such Spirit Plants. “`
