"Um."

  Xu Taiping followed the instrus and plucked a bean pod from the bean stalk, then carefully ope.

  "Fairy, what is this?"

  After opening the bean pod, Xu Taiping saw that it was not beans, but crystal beads that emitted a sparkling luster.

  "This is a spirit crystal, it is the crystallization of the spiritual energy in this nd. Iure, when you cultivate, you put one in your mouth and bi with the prescription I gave you. Even white bones quickly cultivate."

  Fairy Lingyue said fidently.

  "Really?"

  Xu Taiping couldn't help but blurt out.

  "Cultivating with white bones is not difficult at all. It's just that in the nd where you are, many cultivation iances have been cut off, resulting in the inability to cultivate with white bones."

  Fairy Lingyue nodded indifferently and tinued:

  "Among the treasures nurtured by the Earth-Hiding Fruit, this spirit crystal is actually the lowest grade. It only be nurtured in this barren nd. Even if it is allowed to grow for a period of time, it only improve the quality grade of the nurtured spirit crystal. It ot nurture a true magical treasure with supernatural powers."

  Hearing this, Xu Taiping houghtfully, and then asked, "If I pnt this seed on the Seventh Peak, I nurture the kind of magical treasure that Fairy mentioned?"

  "Exactly. If I weren't just a remnant soul, I would want to accept you as my disciple."

  The more Fairy Lingyue looked at Xu Taiping, the more she liked him.

  Xu Taipi a little embarrassed by the praise, so he scratched his head awkwardly.

  "However, if you want the Earth-Hiding Fruit to bear more powerful treasures, besides pnting the seeds on the Seventh Peak with more abundant spiritual energy, there is one more thing we o do."

  Fairy Lingyue spoke again at this time.

  "What is it?"

  Xu Taiping hurriedly asked.

  "Taiping, first pick the remaining two bean pods from the bean stalk, and thehem and hold them in your palm."

  Fairy Lingyue didn't expin immediately, but poio the two remaining green bean pods on the bean stalk.

  "Okay."

  Choosing to believe in Fairy Lingyue, Xu Taiping became very decisive and immediately picked the two bean pods without hesitation, and then opehem.

  After Xu Taiping opehe two bean pods, he found that, as Fairy Lingyue said, there were also spirit crystals that looked like soybeans iwo bean pods.

  "Fairy."

  Xu Taiping put away his own yelloirit crystals and thehe remaining ones in his hand, them to the virtual image of Fairy Lingyue.

  He didn't want any of the ones promised to others, and he didn't want to give away any of his own.

  Fairy Lingyue nodded secretly when she saw this se.

  In her heart, she secretly praised, "Such a young age, cautious but not afraid of things, and doing things in a straightforward and urained manner. He is indeed one of us."

  But she didn't say this to Xu Taiping, she just him, and then sucked in the several yelloirit crystals in Xu Taiping's hand.

  "Hiss..."

  With a slight sug sound, Xu Taiping saw the seven ht yelloirit crystals in the palm of his hand instantly turn into strands of purple energy, like rivers verging into the sea, being sucked into the mouth of Fairy Lingyue's virtual image.

  After sug in the purple energy formed by these several yelloirit crystals, Fairy Lingyue's figure became much clearer to Xu Taiping, no longer swaying like mist in the wind.

  "Thank you, Taiping, for saving my life."

  Fairy Lingyue didn't hesitate to express her gratitude.

  "Fairy, o be polite. This is a transa between you and me."

  Xu Taiping remained calm and shook his head calmly.

  "That's right."

  Fairy Lingyue agreed and hen poio the bean stalk below:

  "Now, take a look at what ges have occurred in this bean stalk."

  Hearing this, Xu Taiping lowered his head and saw that the bean stalk that was still full of vitality had pletely withered at this time, like a weed.

  "Fairy, this bean stalk has withered. How we obtain the seeds?"

  Although Xu Taiping was somewhat surprised, he was not scared because he khat the fairy in front of him must have a solution.

  "Regarding this issue..."

  Fairy Lingyue smiled.

  "It is what I just told you. The sed thing that you o do."

  She tinued.

  Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping immediately showed a listening expression, staring at Fairy Lih a serious look.

  Fairy Lingyue didn't keep him in suspense, and directly informed Xu Taiping:

  "After each result of the Earth-Hiding Fruit, when all the fruits are picked, it will wither on its own. Even if it is the year, it will not bear fruit again.""If you want it to bear fruit again, you must use the Rootless Fire to burn this Withered Grain to ashes. When it is pletely buro ashes, its seeds will sprout from the ashes. That's why we call this step 'Burning Seed.'"

  Lingyue's answer undoubtedly surprised Xu Taiping once again.

  However, more than the surprise in his heart, what he cared more about was the Rootless Fire mentioned by Fairy Lingyue.

  "Fairy, what is the Rootless Fire?"

  Xu Taiping asked.

  Fairy Lingyue seemed to be waiting for Xu Taiping's question, so after hearing his question, she showed a gratified smile again and then expined:

  "The so-called Rootless Fire, as the name suggests, is a fme that does not o be ignited by external objects."

  "There are two types of Rootless Fire, one is born from nature, and the other is refined by cultivators using True Qi and cultivatiohods, which we call True Fire."

  "The Rootless Fire born from nature is also called Spirit Fire. Such divine objects be entered but not sought."

  "So the Rootless Fire you find is only the True Fire refined by cultivators, and the True Fire refined by cultivators is often stored in Magical Treasures and Talisman Scrolls."

  If it was just to expin the Rootless Fire, Fairy Liurally didn't o expin so carefully. Obviously, her words were inteo guide Xu Taiping's cultivation.

  "Thank you for yuidance, Fairy."

  Upon hearing this, Xu Taipi greatly beed and immediately thanked her.

  "So, Fairy, you wao find the Talisman Scroll that tains True Fire, right?"

  He then firmed with Fairy Lingyue.

  "That's right."

  Fairy Lingyue nodded with a smile.

  "Although the True Fire Talisman is not a rare item, and the first Burning Seed of the Earth-Hiding Fruit does not require a high-grade True Fire, you probably 't afford it at the moment. So either refihe True Fire yourself when your cultivation is successful, or work hard to mahis medial garden, and exge it when you have earned enough Merit rewards. There's o rush."

  Fairy Lingyue suggested to Xu Taiping.

  "Don't worry, Fairy, I will work hard on my cultivation and mahis half-acre medial garden, striving to get the True Fire for Burning Seed as soon as possible."

  Xu Taiping nodded seriously.
