My Daily Life of Farming in the World of Cultivation-Chapter 168 - 13 The Metamorphosis of the Body
Although Life Essence Qi could completely replace all Spiritual Energy and ordinary energy,
Fang Yun ultimately did not use Life Essence Qi to replace all the consumption during the growth process of the Spirit Plants.
After all, this was an experimental phase, and if Life Essence Qi were used to replace all energy consumption, he wouldn’t obtain the data he wanted.
Therefore, Fang Yun reduced the infusion of Life Essence Qi, merely maintaining the stimulating effects of Biological Essence on the Spirit Plants.
He then allowed these Spirit Plants to absorb Spiritual Energy and other ordinary energy for replenishment.
This was originally the work of Growth Skills, but Fang Yun used Life Essence Qi as a temporary substitute for convenience.
With his years of control over Life Essence Qi and understanding of plants, such manipulation was not difficult for him.
As Life Essence Qi continued to stimulate these seeds, more and more seeds began to break through the soil.
They then absorbed the Spiritual Energy in the soil, as well as other ordinary energies.
After two hours, all of the Spirit Plants had entered the growth phase.
At this point, Fang Yun temporarily stopped the infusion of Life Essence Qi.
Next, he pulled out any excess Spirit Plants that had grown in each cup.
After all, space was limited, and without fully replacing other nutrients with Life Essence Qi, each cup could not hold too many Spirit Plants.
After clearing the excess Spirit Plants, Fang Yun continued with the hastening process.
In no time, these Spirit Plants began to enter maturity, and soon reached the stage where they could be harvested.
The whole process took no more than a few two-hour periods.
However, to hasten the growth of these Spirit Plants, Fang Yun consumed quite a lot of Life Essence Qi.
After all, among these Spirit Plants, there were not a few Top-grade first-order ones, which required much more Life Essence Qi to grow fully compared to ordinary Spirit Plants.
However, for the sake of data on these Spirit Plants, Fang Yun could only accept it.

By the time he finished these tasks, the sky had also begun to darken.
Fang Yun looked at the twinkling stars above and slowly stretched himself.
Now that the work was done, there was no rush for this moment.
So, he returned to the wooden hut and began to meditate and rest.
As for eating, it was not essential for Fang Yun.
With his realm, it was no big deal to go several days or even more than ten days without food.
The next morning, with the sunrise, Fang Yun came to the small crack in the valley.
Then he began to harvest the Spirit Plants that he had hastened the day before.
At this time, batch processing was not possible, and each type of Spirit Plant had to be harvested individually.
Since two specimens of each Spirit Plant were planted, the harvest time could be used to compare the difference in Life Essence Qi received by the two.
If they differed, he would see what else in the growth process was different between them.
If they were the same, then he could compare with other types of Spirit Plants.
Eventually, he would select the few Spirit Plants that obtained the highest Life Essence Qi.
Among these selected plants, 1-2 suitable for the growth environment of this land would be chosen for planting.
This was the preliminary work that needed to be done before Fang Yun began to cultivate this spirit field.
With these thoughts, Fang Yun started to harvest each Spirit Plant one by one.
It took less than four hours to harvest all the Spirit Plants.
Fang Yun also roughly selected some appropriate Spirit Plants from these.
After the selection, Fang Yun took out the purchased Spirit Plant Book and began to look up information on these plants.
However, this search made Fang Yun frown.
Because he found that the Spirit Plants he had selected were all Top-grade plants among the first-order ones.
Compared to the Low Grade Spirit Rice Fang Yun had planted on other islands,
The quality of these selected plants was indeed much better.
Under these circumstances, the Life Essence Qi they individually brought was naturally higher, with each plant having an income of 4-6 points of Life Essence Qi.
This was normal.
However, this brought about another problem, that is the growth time of these Spirit Plants was much longer than that of other plants.
If there was no other interference, the Spirit Rice previously planted by Fang Yun needed about a whole year’s time to mature.
Whereas these Top-grade plants required a minimum of two to three years, and some even up to five or six years, to grow.
Although Fang Yun had some methods to speed up the growth of Spirit Plants, being in such a location, he couldn’t be too blatant.
Otherwise, he would be clearly showing his methods to others.
And if he didn’t use those methods to hasten growth, the several-year growth period for these Spirit Plants was too long for him.
Thinking of this, Fang Yun ultimately had to give up planting these Top-grade Spirit Plants.
At least, he couldn’t plant them openly.
Considering this, most of the Spirit Plants that should be planted in those 20 acres of spirit field had to be annual Spirit Plants, so that they could bring sufficient Life Essence Qi to him as soon as possible.
As for these Top-grade plants, perhaps he could open up some covert spirit fields in these fissures, and use all his means to hasten the growth of these plants.
