As the Medicinal Hoe flew up and down in the medicinal garden, the troublesome tasks that previously required her to personally work the land now seemed incredibly easy, making Su Bai feel a bit emotional.
"This Magical Artifact is indeed easy to use."
"When I used to see those strange Magical Artifacts at Purple Bamboo Immortal Market, I was puzzled."
"Now it seems it was because my Black Iron Hoe was of too low a grade, completely failing to perform its function."
When she was young, Su Bai was curious why her parents left her a Black Iron Hoe Magical Artifact.
Not to mention it wasn't good for farming,
it was also easy to be mocked when used for fighting.
Now Su Bai finally understood.
"In other words, I was so poor back then that I didn't even have a Cultivator Magical Artifact! The hoe in my hand was truly just for hoeing!"
Fortunately,
those hard times were over.
With Su Bai's current abilities, she could completely support herself.
Thinking about it, she could now be self-sufficient with the Magical Artifacts and Medicinal Pills in her hand.
While Su Bai was happily Cultivating and farming,
not long after,
two streaks of escape light flew from the distant horizon.
The escape lights landed in the direction of the Xu Family on Wumu Island.
The other party did not hide their presence.
Just the aura she sensed made Su Bai understand that the visitors were two Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
This made Su Bai frown.
She was curious who they were.
However, Wumu Island's Formation did not react.
This indicated that Xu Changge had allowed them to enter.
Of course, with two Foundation Establishment Cultivators arriving at the Star Luo Archipelago, it wasn't just the Cultivators on Wumu Island who noticed.
Cultivators on other islands must have known as well.
Now everyone was guessing.
Su Bai thought Xu Changge would handle this matter.
And when she thought it had nothing to do with her,
Xu Changge's transmission talisman arrived.
Then Su Bai also understood the reason for the two Foundation Establishment Cultivators' visit.
They were both Disciples of Qingzhu Sword Sect.
They came to Wumu Island to recruit Disciples.
This seemed to be something Xu Changge had promised Qingzhu Sword Sect back then.
The Xu Family would establish roots in the Star Luo Archipelago and help the Sect find Immortal Seeds with good Aptitude.
And Xu Changge sent a message to Su Bai,
naturally believing that Su Bai, as her younger sister, could help.
Su Bai couldn't refuse.
"I need to talk to Xu Changge. I only called her 'Elder Sister' twice, she shouldn't always just order me around. Now Foundation Establishment is definitely more important, how can she just assign me tasks casually?"
"And there's no benefit..."
Shaking her head, Su Bai stepped on her Flying Sword and left Haijiao Cliff.
This Sect recruitment of Disciples, who knew how many days it would waste.
Besides the Xu Family and Yang Family, the two Cultivation Families on Wumu Island, there were also two cities and over a dozen small towns and villages.
Many Mortals resided there.
In the future, a Lu Family would also be added.
Of course, the Disciples the Sect was currently recruiting would definitely still be chosen from the Xu Family and Yang Family first.
Then they would look for those Mortals with Spiritual Roots.
Su Bai guessed that Xu Changge had already arranged for the Disciples to be taken away from her own Xu Family.
The two Sect Foundation Establishment Cultivators just needed to take a look.
There was no need to worry about the Yang Family either.
They had only been on Wumu Island for about twenty years, so the new generation of Family Disciples wouldn't be very numerous, making selection easy.
The only trouble was the Mortals.
This was also why Xu Changge asked Su Bai to help.
And it was the part Su Bai found troublesome.
Because the task of selecting Mortals with Spiritual Root Aptitude was very likely to fall on her.
There were at least a million Mortals on Wumu Island.
Excluding people above youth, and only selecting young children,
that population would still be over a hundred thousand.
Finding Spiritual Root Disciples among them sounded exhausting.
However, when Su Bai arrived, she realized it wasn't like that.
The Star Luo Archipelago was still an ownerless land at this time, not under the jurisdiction of Qingzhu Sword Sect.
They couldn't so ostentatiously select Immortal Seeds.
The two Cultivators came here only to take away the Xu Family's Immortal Seeds.
As for why Foundation Establishment Cultivators came,
it was because the journey was too far, and Foundation Establishment Cultivators traveled fast.
Moreover, the Xu Family Immortal Seeds they took away were only a small portion.
The Xu Family still needed to develop in the Star Luo Archipelago. If all the good Immortal Seeds were taken to the Sect,
then how would the Xu Family produce outstanding Cultivators in the future?
The reason Xu Changge sent a transmission talisman to Su Bai was to let Su Bai meet the two Sect Cultivators in advance.
To become familiar with them.
So they could have more connections within Qingzhu Sword Sect in the future.
If there were no surprises, the Cultivators who would come to the Star Luo Archipelago to pick up and drop off Immortal Seeds in the future would all be introduced by these two Foundation Establishment Seniors.
Then all Qingzhu Sword Sect Cultivators who came here would get to know Su Bai.
Because Su Bai was the one responsible for selecting Immortal Seeds on this Wumu Island.
In a normal Family, what Su Bai was doing now was a good job for gaining experience and making connections with Sect Disciples.
Even though Su Bai found this kind of thing troublesome.
Seeing Su Bai arrive,
Xu Changge said to the two Foundation Establishment Cultivators sitting beside her, who came from Qingzhu Sword Sect:
"My dear sister is here. Let her chat with you first while I go and bring over all the Immortal Seeds."
"Alright, Xu Daoyou, please go."
Xu Changge walked out of the house and nodded to Su Bai.
Su Bai scratched her head, feeling a bit helpless.
"Two Seniors, I am Su Bai."
Cultivators' conversations were nothing more than flattery.
Su Bai boasted about Qingzhu Sword Sect, as if she greatly yearned for Sect life.
Although this trick was a bit cliché,
the other side clearly enjoyed it.
"I heard that Qingzhu Sword Sect is famous for its Sword Cultivators among its Disciples, and their Spell combat is formidable."
"Haha, that's all just external boasting."
"That's right, but a Disciple of our Sect, at Qi Refining Peak, once faced a second-order Thunder Yao Beast alone in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, fighting for a day and a night, and finally cut it down with his sword, obtaining its Yao Core!"
"Oh, I've heard of that matter."
"This matter was spread in Tianyun City. Afterwards, the Elder of the Dan Yao Pavilion in the Sect heard about it and, to encourage him, specially refined that Yao Core into a Foundation Establishment Pill to help him achieve Foundation Establishment."
As both sides bragged, their relationship quickly grew closer.
Especially when Su Bai occasionally acted surprised and inexperienced,
which made the two Sect Disciples laugh heartily.
Their vanity was greatly satisfied.
They got along very well.
When Xu Changge returned, both sides stopped talking.
Xu Changge looked at the harmonious atmosphere and nodded to Su Bai in satisfaction.
Clearly, her younger sister understood social etiquette very well.
Xu Changge made a gesture of invitation to the two Sect Disciples.
"Two Senior Brothers, I have brought the Immortal Seeds. Let's go and test their Aptitude."
"Good."
"Yes, let's finish this quickly so we can return to the Sect to report."
They went outside together.
Looking at the five children standing in the courtyard.
Each of them was like a golden boy and a jade girl.
Just by their appearance, they were already very good.
At this moment, one of them stretched out a hand and cast a Spell towards the five children.
Beginning to test their Aptitude.
"Gold, Water, Wood, three Spiritual Roots, not bad."
"Gold, Fire, Earth, three Spiritual Roots, good."
"Gold, Earth, Wood, three Spiritual Roots, mhm mhm."
"Oh! Gold, Water, dual Spiritual Roots, excellent!"
"This is... Gold, Earth, dual Spiritual Roots, very, very good!"
After checking their Aptitude, the other party was clearly very satisfied.
Although there were no peerless Geniuses with single Spiritual Roots,
dual Spiritual Roots were already rare.
Clearly, the Xu Family's Immortal Seeds were of very good quality.
