"Next, as long as we obtain a Spirit Vein Essence, we can utilize the Natural Sanctuary's ability to restore Contracted Trees. By continuously extracting Spirit Tree Essence, we can rapidly enhance the Spiritual Meridian."

"I also need to find a way to increase the number of spirit woods bound by the Tree Spirit Contract. Given my current Spiritual Power strength, I can still contract quite a few High-Level Spirit Trees..."

Having found a solution to the issue of acquiring Spiritual Qi, Qi Ping was incredibly excited.

This directly solved a fundamental problem for him!

By using the Natural Sanctuary to continually improve the Spiritual Meridian, he could avoid the brutal conflicts over Spiritual Meridians in the Immortal Cultivation Realm. He only needed to acquire more High-Level Spirit Trees and establish contracts with them.

Once the Spiritual Meridian is cultivated, with the array intercepting all Spiritual Qi within it, Qi Ping could hardly imagine how dense the Spiritual Qi in his domain might become.

At the very least, he wouldn't need to worry about the Spiritual Qi required for his own cultivation and for nurturing his Animal Companions.

If the enhancement speed of the Spiritual Meridian is fast enough, it could even help Qi Ping set up stronger arrays.

An array based on a powerful Spiritual Meridian as its foundation is far superior to those based on Spirit Stones or common materials.

This represents not only a higher strength but also the ability to draw upon the Spiritual Qi of the Spiritual Meridian for strength restoration and repair.

One reason why most sects in the Immortal Cultivation Realm use a Spiritual Meridian as one of the bases for their protective grand arrays is its reinforcement; even several times the combat power might not be enough to conquer a sect blessed with a strong Spiritual Meridian.

"This is the result of my efforts over the past year!"

Regarding the progress over the year, Qi Ping was quite satisfied.

Heaven rewards diligence, none of his efforts over the past year were in vain!

Plant Growth Skill advanced to level four, Healing Technique to level three, and Beast King's Flame to level four!

Among them, advancing Plant Growth to level four enabled him to cultivate Centennial Blood Ginseng and subsequently transform bee colonies, while the upgrade of Beast King's Flame increased his Fire Attribute Talent once again, boosting his combat power.

Besides these skill level upgrades, other aspects also saw substantial improvement.

Initially, his Great Brewmaster Talent was replaced by a more powerful Brewing Artisan Talent from the evolved Tier Two Apothecary Bee.

The available slots for Animal Companions increased to two again, allowing Qi Ping to contract two more Animal Companions and share two Shared Talents.

For new Animal Companions, Qi Ping was still inclined to choose one with a strong Comprehension Talent.

He needed to cultivate a lot of things now, such as array and True Meaning of the Law, which were essential, and many spells also required some effort in cultivation. Having a single means of cultivation was secondary; the most important thing was enhancing his Cultivation Techniques and magic foundations.

Each of these tasks required Qi Ping to invest energy in researching. If his comprehension were a bit higher, it would make things much smoother; additionally, increasing his Divine Soul Talent would also greatly benefit Qi Ping.

Next, Qi Ping aimed to acquire the Five Elements Talent.

The Path of the Five Elements was a route Qi Ping was determined to pursue, so he would not miss any suitable Five Elements Talent.

Besides that, some rare Spirit Beasts with Special Attribute Skills were also an option.

The last matter that concerned Qi Ping was the addition of another Wilderness Transformation slot, which made him slightly hesitant.

Regarding the second Wilderness Transformation form, Qi Ping had yet to decide.

He intended to reserve the second Wilderness Transformation form for a Spirit Beast with rare attributes.

This relates to another setting of Wilderness Transformation: the first phase is a special transformation, subjected to many restrictions.

Only at the second phase, the complete transformation state, could he fully integrate his entire body structure and bloodline into the transformation state, and utilize the transformed state to learn skills and enhance attributes.

However, his current Druid Level had not reached the condition for the complete transformation state.

Thus, unless necessary, Qi Ping planned to reserve the upcoming Wilderness Transformation slot for Spirit Beasts with powerful bloodlines or special attributes.

For instance, a Spatial Class Pet Beast, or a Spirit Beast with Divine Beast bloodline.

Once he had the complete transformation state of Wilderness Transformation, Qi Ping could also utilize the transformed state to navigate and transact within the domains dominated by the Demon Beast Race for trading and resource acquisition.

Identifying as the Human Race made it very challenging to trade with Demon Beasts. However, shifting to the Demon Race would make things much easier.

This advantage would enable Qi Ping to access resources that other Cultivators could not easily obtain, because of the rough management, the Demon Beast territories possessed much richer resources compared to the Human Race areas, and they were easier to locate, unlike among humans where even a small Spiritual Vein needed to be fenced off and rented out.

...

"With the resources in hand, the improvements have become significant without realizing it..."

"It's just unfortunate that after cultivating another batch of Tier Two Bees, the Spiritual Qi resources here will essentially be depleted."

In this situation, Qi Ping had to find ways to acquire resources externally.

Having lost the channel through Meng Yan, the difficulty in acquiring and trading resources for Qi Ping increased dramatically.

Therefore, over the next two to three months, while cultivating Tier Two bee colonies and creating the Earth Armor Bee Battle Array, Qi Ping was continually exploring new trade channels.

For instance, considering heading to the core Qingtian City of the Qingtian Realm, the Black Market, the core city of the neighboring Great Realm, or the Hongli of Ning Mountain Family... etc.

Meanwhile, he was consistently thinking about how to utilize his advantages to walk and trade safely outside, as individuals like Meng Yan were very rare.

Under Qi Ping's efforts, he eventually discovered a way to maximize his safety while traveling outside.

"So, the Natural Perception skill could be used like this...."

"Isn't this essentially a simplified version of navigating auspicious paths and avoiding misfortunes?"
