Golden Essence Fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, he confirmed his hypothesis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The row of Iron Stem Orchids close to the Golden Essence Fruit had fruits that were mostly tinged with a golden yellow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The row further in had only a small portion with similar golden yellow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even further in, only one or two scattered plants had such changes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was indeed very likely that hybrid mutation had occurred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon reaching this conclusion, Chu Ning felt a mix of emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, when planting Spirit Plants, especially on a large scale, it was often the case that different Spirit Plants would be planted separately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These twenty acres of Spirit Field were indeed separated from other fields.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, within these twenty acres, they weren’t separated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last season, Chu Ning planted Golden Essence Fruit and Purple Crystal Bamboo, and the two Spirit Plants didn’t have any impact on each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Chu Ning overlooked this detail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be precise, he didn’t entirely overlook it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding the cultivation of Golden Essence Fruit, Chu Ning was well aware that there was no mention of any potential impact with Iron Blue Fruit Flower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning surmised that the main reason was that Iron Stem Orchid and Iron Blue Orchid Fruit were not previously found in the Cyan Gorge Mountain Range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, the records kept by the Cyan Creek Sect were also unaware that the two Spirit Fruits might affect each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, looking at these two rows of Iron Stem Orchids, Chu Ning furrowed his brow slightly, caught in a dilemma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he kept them, he wasn’t sure whether such a hybrid was good or bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[And] whether these Iron Blue Orchid Fruits could grow normally, and if they did, whether they could be used for Body Tempering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not keeping them means destroying those Iron Blue Orchid Fruits and replanting them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would mean that nearly two and a half months of effort would be wasted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forget it, I’ll take a gamble.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gritting his teeth, Chu Ning decided to keep all these Iron Blue Orchid Fruits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rather than waste two and a half months, he might as well give it a try.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this Mutated Spirit Fruit could finally grow, he would see what it would look like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not, [it wouldn’t be a big deal] to waste another three months at most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it’s only two rows, while the rest are basically normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this way, Chu Ning simply stopped paying attention to whether the Iron Blue Orchid Fruits were hybrid mutations, and instead, cultivated them according to the usual method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subsequently, Chu Ning also began to probe these different Iron Blue Orchid Fruits from multiple angles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some experiments, Chu Ning discovered that the Spirit Qi absorption rate of these two rows of Iron Blue Orchid Fruits was noticeably faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his Cyan Wood Spring Blossom Skill, his casting frequency could be increased by thirty percent, and they could still absorb it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He further noticed that this batch of Iron Blue Orchid Fruits seemed to require more water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he didn’t perform the Ganlin Technique every two days, the surface of the Spirit Fruits would appear slightly shriveled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, Chu Ning wouldn’t be stingy with his spells and accordingly increased the frequency of their use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To his slight surprise, since bearing fruit, these two rows of hybrid mutated Iron Spirit Fruits were growing notably faster than the regular ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After he increased his spell casting frequency, this batch of Iron Blue Orchid Fruits grew to be half again as large as the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, as time went on,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the brown color of their peels gradually faded, and the original golden yellow mixed within began to deepen continuously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this trend continued by the time they were fully mature, it’s very likely that these Golden Orchid Fruits wouldn’t be brown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, like the Golden Essence Fruits, they would turn golden yellow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two months later, in the Spirit Field.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning began to harvest the Golden Essence Fruits with a Jade Box in hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After they bore fruit once, the time for Golden Essence Fruits to grow again seemed slightly shortened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The period from fruit picking to regrowth and flowering was over a month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It only took four months from flowering to maturity this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, Chu Ning planned to sell all these Golden Essence Fruits to Gu Xiaoqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to the increasing number of Qi Refining Late Stage Cultivators in the Market, Gu Xiaoqing had begun selling Spiritual Essence Pills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These Golden Essence Fruits were also a crucial ingredient for Spiritual Essence Pills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, unlike the Gathering Essence Pill, Spiritual Essence Pill refinement required other more advanced materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Chu Ning picked all the Golden Essence Fruits and stored them away properly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he went among the rows of Iron Blue Orchid Fruits and performed the Cyan Wood Spring Blossom Skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the casting was done, Chu Ning walked to the row closest to the Golden Essence Fruits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can these still be called Iron Blue Orchid Fruits? How about Golden Orchid Fruits?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the two rows of now golden-yellow Iron Blue Orchid Fruits, Chu Ning smiled and shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he sat down cross-legged and started to cultivate the Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two rows of Iron Blue Orchid Fruits, due to faster Spirit Qi absorption, benefited from the enhanced cultivation speed of the Cyan Wood Spring Blossom Skill as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For two or three months, Chu Ning mainly cultivated the Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique in this Spirit Field.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing cultivating, Chu Ning naturally glanced at his cultivation proficiency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique (Yellow Tier Lower Grade), Third Layer (500\u002F2100)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Nine Derivations Body Refining Technique, Volume One, Unbreakable Tendons 313\u002F1500]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Refining Spirit Technique, First Layer 780\u002F1000]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"About a month more, and I should enter the Eighth Layer of Qi Refining!\" Chu Ning revealed a slight smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had been nearly five months since he reached the Qi Refining Late Stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During these five months, for nearly a month at the start, Chu Ning steadily built his foundation using the Cyan Wood Spring Blossom Skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After purchasing Spiritual Essence Pills from Wind Gorge Square, Chu Ning then started rapid cultivation using them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Chu Ning wasn’t overly reckless; after consuming the pills for a few days, he generally took a short break.\u003C\u002Fp>",1076,"2026-06-02T10:18:59.779Z",1,"novelbin.me","3cf405a5956387c500cdfba6c1ba0e7362db6e5832839254906a22ee240f4d51","eternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-chapter-149","eternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-chapter-147",514,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-cover.jpg"]
