The only real gain was learning the techniques for cultivating spiritual plants. This was a truly practical skill to have from her previous life.
Since spiritual plants take a significantly long time to grow—often requiring at least several decades to show results—many are extremely precious and delicate; they are easily killed if grown incorrectly by hand.
Cultivation and maintenance techniques for spiritual plants are passed down through generations within major sects, and even small sects struggle to master them completely.
But in this world… Mu Yanxi looked at the pop-up windows constantly appearing before her.
They meticulously labeled the name, true age, medicinal properties, usage, cultivation methods, natural predators, and planting precautions for every single spiritual herb. The vast majority of these were things she had never learned before.
Although Mu Yanxi knew these secrets were worth a fortune, she felt a bit annoyed after seeing them for so long. Could they just stop for now, and let her look through them slowly when she had the time?
Even though this content was enough to make her a master of spiritual medicine, these windows were inexplicably irritating.
‘This is quite an extravagant thought to have.’ If the elders from her past life saw this knowledge, they would likely be moved to tears of excitement.
Yet here she was, feeling bothered by these pop-ups. Could it be that this knowledge of cultivation and maintenance really wasn’t worth anything in this world?
Just then, Mu Yanxi heard the new disciples admiring the strange flowers and grasses at the display stand chatting with one another.
“My goodness, these spiritual herbs are all super rare. I don’t recognize ninety percent of them.”
“I know, right? Anything you find on the Dao web is just a bunch of mixed-up classifications of spiritual trees and herbs. You can’t even identify the real varieties.”
“These were all summarized by the ninth-generation senior sisters while they were cultivating and studying them. Hehe, these spiritual herbs are all precious varieties, and each one is extremely rare.”
“You generally can’t find relevant information on typical platforms. You have to go to professional forums where experts share this knowledge, or hold high VIP status on platforms belonging to specialized spiritual plant sects to access professional data. It’s not something you can just get easily,” a tree demon senior sister said.
Huh? Is it not just supposed to pop up a bunch of data automatically?
Mu Yanxi froze. At this moment, information windows related to the spiritual plants were still continuously popping up within her star-imprint eyes.
This information was just much more detailed, but some of the knowledge regarding spiritual herbs that already existed in her sect from her previous life did exist within the Magnificent Truth Sect, and she already knew how to grow them.
The content popping up in the immortal brain was basically consistent with that. With her Nascent Soul Stage perspective, she could distinguish the truth from the false at a glance.
At this moment, the Wood Spirit clan senior sister continued, “The senior sisters from the previous 90 generations have all been collecting and organizing medicine-nurturing knowledge and cultivation experience on various forums.”
“They even asked our teachers to use department funds to open up platforms for nine medicine-path sects and acquired a lot of data. Our consultant teacher even has a Gold-tier membership for Yao Immortal Valley!”
Yao Immortal Valley?
Mu Yanxi felt the name sounded familiar. Before she could think it through, she heard a new disciple gasp, “Is that the Yao Immortal Valley that established the Yangxintang Group?”
At this reminder, Mu Yanxi immediately recalled.
She had seen the Immortal Vessel of the Lin Family of the Yangxintang Group that day, and at the time, she heard that the sect behind Yangxintang was none other than the Yao Immortal Valley.
Her father worked at the grassroots level of the Yangxintang Group; strictly speaking, he could be considered the lowest-level miscellaneous servant of the Yao Immortal Valley.
“That’s right, this Junior Sister is very knowledgeable,” the tree demon senior sister smiled.
“Yao Immortal Valley is the most authoritative alchemy sect in the Qingxu Kingdom. The medicine-nurturing techniques they possess are simply incomparable to other sects.”
“Furthermore, Yangxintang and our Spiritual Moon Palace have joint alchemy projects, providing our horticulture department with additional technical support.”
“Our consultant teacher also spent a considerable amount of department funds to unlock the Gold-tier membership for Yao Immortal Valley, where we learned a lot of professional medicine-nurturing knowledge,” the Wood Spirit clan senior sister added, sounding somewhat proud.
“However, the truly profound medicine-nurturing knowledge of the Yao Immortal Valley couldn’t possibly be placed on the platform, right?”
“Those must be undisclosed, right? And Gold-tier memberships require Nascent Soul-level cultivators to open; higher-level memberships aren’t even something the consultant teacher can open, right?” that Junior Sister continued to ask.
“That is indeed true, unfortunately. If we had a Spirit Transformation-level consultant teacher, we could pool our funds to let them open an even higher Platinum-tier membership to get more detailed information.”
“It’s a pity… but even so, the current horticulture department’s standard in spiritual herb cultivation and maintenance is not inferior to most heaven-grade High Sects,” the tree clan senior sister said with a hint of regret.
“As long as we master the technology of cultivating and nurturing medicine, we can apply to be spiritual medicine nurses for high-level cultivators in the future and never have to worry about resources,” the Wood Spirit clan senior sister laughed.
As a Wood Spirit female cultivator, she had outstanding talent in medicine field management, and taking care of spiritual herbs was her ambition.
Hearing their conversation, Mu Yanxi felt a bit overwhelmed.
She had just gone to the immortal brain to check, and those pop-up data points were actually being automatically retrieved from the Heavenly Tome Library, and this spiritual plant data came from multiple alchemy sects, including nine sects that specifically grew and nurtured medicine.
Moreover, these sects did not all belong to the Qingxu Kingdom.
Besides Yao Immortal Valley, the others included the Tianluo Alchemy Path, the Wan Shou Heavenly Kingdom, the Everlasting Sect, the Divine Medicine Hall, and so on—just hearing their names, one knew they each had their own unique techniques.
Yet, all of their medicine-nurturing and cultivation experiences were recorded in the Heavenly Tome Library of the Heavenly Court; as long as one had the authority, they could browse at will.
Previously, Mu Yanxi thought this was normal, but now it clearly seemed wrong.
If all it took was spirit stones, any wealthy family or sect wouldn’t mind spending hundreds of thousands or even millions of spirit stones to open a membership.
After all, it would only take one month to record knowledge from the Heavenly Tome Library far exceeding the value of those spirit stones—how could there be such a good deal under heaven?
It wasn’t until she heard those disciples say that even information about spiritual herbs and medicines was hard to find on the Dao web, and that it had to be collected and organized bit by bit from various forums and websites, that she realized the severity of the problem.
She dived back into the immortal brain with her spirit sense to check the authority description of the Heavenly Tome Library, and only then did she discover the key point—members of the Heavenly Tome Library must be members of the Heavenly Court, or at least registered cultivators, in order to open it.
And the Sixth Rank Purple-Gold Member status required at least a Spirit Transformation-level cultivator to be eligible.
Was the original owner of this immortal brain a cultivator of the Heavenly Court? And a Spirit Transformation-level cultivator at that?
Perhaps even on the same level as the original host’s grandfather?
Soon, Mu Yanxi noticed something else amiss. The authority description stated “Spirit Transformation-level,” rather than “Spirit Transformation stage.”
She immediately went to look up the meaning of this concept—the so-called “Spirit Transformation-level” referred to a cultivator whose strength reached the standard Spirit Transformation stage level.
The standard Spirit Transformation stage refers to the strength possessed by someone who has reached the Spirit Transformation stage as quickly as possible, using normal cultivation methods, without any additional cultivation bonuses.
In other words, “Spirit Transformation-level” does not necessarily mean the cultivation base has reached the Spirit Transformation stage, but that the strength has reached that standard.
Likewise, there are Golden Core-level, Nascent Soul-level, and quasi-Spirit Transformation-level, and even higher Void Refinement-level, Dao-joining-level, and so on.
On the Dao web forums, such cultivators also had a simple and easy-to-understand nickname—”Whiteboard.”
