Buying Seeds

Ye Fan observed the attributes and skills of the upgraded bronze-level Titan Wood Sprout, satisfaction evident in his eyes. The addition of the "Giant Wood" skill opened up new possibilities. 

As the Titan Wood Sprouts played around under Ye Fan's watchful eye, he couldn't help but marvel, the upgrade to bronze level had not only enhanced its physical attributes but also improved intelligence, allowing Groot 1 to understand and follow simple instructions.

"Groot 1, be careful and don't break anything," Ye Fan instructed, his words directed at the first Titan Wood Sprout. The creature, with its basic intelligence akin to that of a child around five or six years old, nodded in acknowledgment. It exhibited a sense of curiosity, exploring its surroundings while adhering to Ye Fan's words. The other Titan Wood Sprouts, Groot 2 and Groot 3, continued their playful interactions creating a lively scene in the room, Groot 1, Groot 2 and Groot 3 are the names he gave them.

"Now, I can control the Groot's just like pets," he muttered to himself. For spiritual planters, the plants they cultivated were more than just flora; they became close companions, akin to the monster pets of Beast Masters. The Titan Wood Sprouts responded to Ye Fan's commands, forming a unique bond with him just like Mind Shadow Parasite.

Next, he checked the plant seeds given to him by Sister Mei, but there was nothing special just some simple plant seeds for making different potions. Looking at the seeds he was not interested in growing them for now, "My top priority now is to gather some plants that can fight," Ye Fan thought, contemplating his next steps. He decided to check SkyDrive for information on places around him that sold spiritual plants and seeds, particularly those with combat capabilities. 

Ye Fan soon sent a message to Li Chen, quickly formulating a plan to meet. "Hey brother Li! Let's catch up today. Okay?" While waiting for Li Chen's response, Ye Fan took a moment to check out the nearby spiritual plant stores on SkyDrive, ensuring to choose a reputable one.

A short while later, Li Chen's reply popped up on the screen. "Sure thing, Bro! Send me specific location."

"Rosen's Botanicals," Ye Fan mumbled as he selected the store on SkyDrive. The name suggested a focus on the essence of spiritual plants, and the reviews indicated a good variety of high-quality seeds and plants. He sent the location details to Li Chen, preparing for their meeting.

The store itself, nestled in a bustling part of the Shadow Eclipse Society's base, had an inviting exterior. Lush greenery adorned the entrance, creating a refreshing atmosphere. As Ye Fan approached, he noticed a display showcasing a selection of vibrant and exotic spiritual plants, each radiating a unique aura. There is a simple copper bell hanging at the door of the shop, and the narrow shop door has to be touched no matter how you walk in.

When the bell rang, the owner knew that there was a visitor. Upon entering, the store's interior mirrored the natural theme, with wooden shelves and leafy accents enhancing the ambiance. A knowledgeable staff, moved around, assisting customers and answering inquiries.

Ye Fan explored the aisles, observing the diverse array of seeds and plants neatly organized. The store offered everything from basic medicinal herbs to rare and potent spiritual plants. The air was infused with the delicate fragrance of blossoms, creating a serene environment within the bustling base of the Shadow Eclipse Society.

He soon found Li Chen inside the store and moved toward him, "Yo, bro! How long have you been here?" Ye Fan greeted Li Chen with a casual smile as he walked into the store.

Li Chen chuckled, "Not too long, just got here. I was checking out these cool plants. Man, they've got some interesting stuff in here."

"Haha, yeah? Let's see if we can find something that suits our needs," Ye Fan suggested, the two friends ready to explore the spiritual plants of the store together. As they browsed through the store, Ye Fan and Li Chen exchanged thoughts on various plants and seeds.

"Brother Li, imagine having plants that could enhance your elemental magic. That would be awesome, right?" Ye Fan suggested, a grin playing on his face. 

Li Chen nodded, his eyes scanning the shelves. "Absolutely! I've heard there are plants with natural affinities for elements. Let's see if we can find some." he who specialized in elemental magic, expressed interest in plants with elemental affinities that could complement his skills. Ye Fan, on the other hand, focused on finding plants with combat potential, with a discerning eye, made his selections, choosing seeds that resonated with his requirements. His gaze shifted across the neatly arranged display of seeds, each vial holding the promise of unique abilities. Li Chen, standing beside him, also perused the selection with keen interest, his elemental magic expertise guiding his choices.

As they continued their exploration, an old man with glasses who was sorting materials approached them, "Welcome, esteemed guests! How may I assist you today?" The attendant's eyes gleamed with the familiarity of dealing with individuals.

"I'm looking for plants with elemental affinities," Li Chen explained to the attendant. "Something that complements my magic skills."

The attendant nodded, acknowledging Li Chen's request. "Certainly, we have a variety of seeds with elemental attributes—fire, water, earth, and more. May I inquire about the specific element you're interested in?"

Li Chen pondered for a moment before responding, "I'm particularly interested in seeds with water or Ice attributes." The attendant swiftly retrieved a series of vials containing seeds imbued with elemental properties. Li Chen examined each one carefully, assessing their potential synergy with his magical abilities.

Meanwhile, Ye Fan focused on a different section of the counter, "I'm looking for seeds that can grow into combat-ready plants," Ye Fan explained to the attendant. "Plants with defensive capabilities and perhaps some offensive traits."

The attendant, well-versed in catering to the diverse needs of Spiritual Planters, guided Ye Fan through the selection. "We have seeds that can give rise to plants with enhanced physical strength, defensive mechanisms, or even those with offensive capabilities. Are you looking for something specific?"

Ye Fan considered his options before responding, "I want a mix. Plants that can provide both defense and offense, something versatile."

The attendant smiled, recognizing the preference for well-rounded capabilities. "Very well, sir. I have just the selection for you." With that, the attendant presented a curated assortment of seeds that promised a balance of defensive and offensive attributes.

"Check this out, this one is called Iron-spine Defender. It's known for its robust defense and ability to entangle foes. What do you think?" the attendant swiftly explained and showed the below-displayed seed of Iron-spine Defender, which is already enchanted by spiritual planters. 

In the bustling world of spiritual plant commerce, the art of enchanting and cultivating unique seeds was a thriving business because after buying the seeds, all he needed to do was just infuse spiritual power and they could be grown easily. This is the major business of all Spiritual planters, the spiritual plants with unique features are very costly ranging around thousands of points for each plant. 

Many spiritual planters worked tirelessly to collect seeds from the various plants. These seeds, imbued with the essence of their parent plants, became the foundation of the spiritual planter's craft. All major stores, recruit spiritual planters to collect seeds from the plants and let them enchant with spiritual runes. 

Rosen's Botanicals, being a reputable establishment, actively recruited spiritual planters to contribute to this essential process. It wasn't just a store; it was a hub where spiritual planters gathered to exchange knowledge, share experiences, and form connections within their community. The store's recruitment board displayed requests for skilled planters to venture into the field and collect seeds from rare plants. The skilled planters employed by the store were adept at identifying the potential of each seed and enhancing it through the infusion of spiritual power and runes.

The costliness of the spiritual plants reflected the intricacies of this process. Plants with unique features and powerful abilities commanded high prices, often ranging into thousands of points. Spiritual planters, in turn, saw these plants not only as valuable assets for their own growth but also as potential sources of income.

For those willing to invest time and effort, raw seeds were available at a fraction of the cost. These seeds required the planter to personally enchant them with spiritual runes, a process that demanded skill, patience, and a deep understanding of the plants' intricacies.

With their purchases in hand, Ye Fan and Li Chen left the store, it cost him about 230 points for 10 Iron-spine Defender seeds with some other raw seeds that he wanted to experiment with later. while Li Chen also brought an elemental Spiritual plant seed with some growth enhancement potions.
