A Farmer's Journey To Immortality - Chapter 102

Chapter 102: Everwood Farm’s Growth: Filthy Rich In Cultivation Resources
In the perpetual twilight of the Enchanted Everwood farm, Aksai embarked on his daily rounds.

His first destination was the Amber Glowvine, its luminescent tendrils weaving a web of light amidst the shadowy undergrowth.

[1st-order Amber Glowvine

Light Conditions: Thrives in partial sunlight or dappled shade. Can tolerate some direct sunlight.

Nourishment Needs: Requires moderate watering, allowing the soil to dry slightly between watering sessions. Responds well to a monthly application of a water-based

Spirit fertilizer. Some select demon beast blood can be used to enhance the quality of the products one gets from this plant.

Soil Type: Flourishes in well-draining, sandy loam soil with good aeration.

Nutrients: Benefits from a balanced Spirit fertilizer with a higher concentration of earth-attribute Spirit essence.

Conditions: Prefers moderate temperatures and consistent humidity levels.]

Aksai paused, his gaze tracing the delicate patterns of bioluminescence that adorned its leaves. With a gentle touch, he adjusted the enchanted lanterns that hung above, ensuring the vine received just the right amount of illumination to flourish.

The runic lanterns that Aksai had employed on his farm served as ideal replacements for the sunlight inside the Everwood farm. Aksai had gathered many such resources to suit the needs of varying cultivation resources.

Thanks to his twelve years of diligent study in Spirit horticulture, Aksai’s crops were no longer hindered by the absence of sunlight within the Everwood farm. Or frankly any kind of environmental factors for that matter. Not really.

One could say that Aksai had not forgotten his routes. His progress over a decade in Spirit farming was as impressive as his achievements in his SPirit cultivation and body cultivation.

Leveraging various cultivation resources from Cultivation World Dadangar and Martial World Sharang, Aksai could replicate almost any environmental conditions needed for a particular plant.

As long as he had the right kind of cultivation resources, he could grow almost any type of Spirit plant on his farm. He was only truly limited by the Return-on-investment ratio of the plant.

How could a Spirit farmer be so versatile?

How did he grow multiple cultivation resources that were deemed worlds apart from each other in terms of their cultivation requirements?

With his enhanced knowledge of various aspects of Spirit farming, Aksai’s secluded domain underwent a remarkable transformation from what it was over a decade ago. It was now divided into multiple segments, each isolated by simple spectral barriers erected through Array Formations.

These spectral barriers enabled Aksai to fine-tune environmental factors such as humidity, sunlight exposure, soil type, and irrigation methods for optimal growth conditions tailored to each plant’s needs. One could say that he was customizing the growth of his cultivation resources in real-time to match his needs.

This meticulous treatment and care ensured rapid growth without compromising quality or interfering with the cultivation of other plants requiring different conditions. One could say that it was the pinnacle of Spirit farming for someone of Aksai’s level and background.

Moreover, thanks to the Enchanted Everwood Palace’s various benefits, Aksai possessed precise guidance on cultivating resources typically deemed challenging by seasoned Spirit farmers.

Armed with comprehensive data on each cultivation resource’s requirements and real-time updates on plant status, he could swiftly address any issues that arose.

As a result, Aksai’s Everwood farm yielded twice the produce with half the effort and investment, affording him more time to pursue advancements in other facets of his cultivation journey. He grew up as a Spirit cultivator and a martial artist without forgetting about his roots as a Spirit farmer.

Moving deeper into the dim forest-like zone, Aksai reached the Silvermoon Fern grove, where silvery fronds shimmered in the faint light. Aksai knelt among the ferns, running his fingers over their delicate foliage, feeling the pulse of life that thrummed within.

With a single thought, all the information related to the fern was provided to him on the Spectral Screen.

[2nd-order Silvermoon Fern

Light Conditions: Flourishes in low to moderate indirect sunlight.

Nourishment Needs: Requires regular water irrigation along with a hint of Lihava acid exposure to maintain soil moisture. Apply a monthly dose of a fire-attribute-rich Spirit fertilizer to promote lush foliage growth.

Soil Type: Prefers nutrient-rich, well-draining soil with a slightly acidic pH level.

Nutrients: Responds well to a balanced Spirit fertilizer supplemented with a touch of moonlight essence extracted using a simple moonlight gathering formation.

Conditions: Moderate temperatures with high humidity levels.]

“Hm. I need to adjust its soil acidity,” Aksai thought to himself.

With a whispered incantation, he infused the soil with a subtle enchantment, bolstering the ferns’ resilience.

As he wandered further, Aksai came upon the Frostfire Lotus pond, where delicate blooms glowed with an inner fire.

[2nd-order Frostfire Lotus

Light Conditions: Requires a balance of sunlight and shade, thriving in partial sunlight.

Nourishment Needs: Needs consistent moisture levels, but avoid waterlogging. Apply a frost-tolerant Spirit fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season.

Soil Type: Flourishes in a mix of loamy soil and sand with excellent drainage.

Nutrients: Responds well to a fertilizer enriched with frostfire crystals and a hint of fire-attribute Essence.

Conditions: Prefers cooler temperatures and occasional exposure to frost.]

Aksai watched as the petals shimmered in the dim light, casting soft reflections upon the still waters. With a gesture of his hand, he coaxed tendrils of mist to rise from the surface, enveloping the lotuses in a cloak of ethereal beauty.

At last, he arrived at the Celestial Baneberry patch, where otherworldly blossoms bloomed in the perpetual twilight.

[2nd-order Celestial Baneberry

Light Conditions: Prefers indirect sunlight or partial shade.

Nourishment Needs: Requires regular watering to maintain soil moisture. Apply a balanced Spirit fertilizer every three weeks during the growing season. A bit of exposure to the wind-attribute spell would allow the cultivator to enhance the quality.

Soil Type: Flourishes in well-draining, loamy soil with good aeration.

Nutrients: Benefits from a fertilizer infused with starlight-attribute Essence. A starlight gathering formation can be arranged to infuse a vial of the bottle with starlight essence. This essence can then be used as a nourishment for the Celestial Baneberry.

Conditions: Moderate temperatures with as much exposure to moonlight as possible.]

“Hmm. This 2nd-order plant is growing great. I can finally use it to make some pills. Hehe. This is good news.”

Aksai marveled at the otherworldly radiance of the Celestial Baneberry, feeling a sense of achievement wash over him in their presence.

He cast an elemental Spirit spell around the patch before moving on.
