Sloppy Old man

Ye Fan left the group, his destination set for the Spiritual Planter Association. As he strolled through the bustling streets of the Shadow Eclipse Society's base, he couldn't help but ponder the potential of this newfound path.

Upon reaching the association's entrance, Ye Fan was met with a sight that resonated with the essence of life. The surroundings were adorned with a vibrant display of spiritual plants, each radiating a unique aura. The air was filled with the delicate fragrance of blossoms, creating an atmosphere that felt like a sanctuary of nature nestled within the heart of the Shadow Eclipse Society's bustling base.

The association is in the center of a large complex of tall and old trees with a height reaching 10 to 15 meters with a diameter of 6 to 7 meters like tall pillars, surrounding the buildings, these trees have conical crowns, with horizontal to slightly drooping branches. The trunk is remarkably straight. The bark is very thick, up to 30 cm, and quite soft and fibrous, with a bright red-brown color when freshly exposed, weathering darker. The root system is composed of shallow, wide-spreading lateral roots. The leaves are scalelike, long in the upper crown of older trees. The vibrant hues of spiritual plants greeted him, creating a captivating display of nature within the heart of the bustling Shadow Eclipse Society's base. The towering trees with conical crowns and cascading branches formed a natural canopy, and the fragrance of blossoms filled the air, lending the surroundings a sanctuary-like quality.

The Association building itself stood as a testament to the significance placed on the art of spiritual planting. Its architecture seamlessly blended with the natural elements, Vines gracefully climbed the sides of the structure, their leaves glistening with a hint of spiritual essence.

As Ye Fan entered the association, he found himself in a spacious hall bathed in natural light streaming through strategically placed skylights. The air was permeated with a palpable sense of tranquility, creating an environment conducive to the delicate work undertaken by the association's members.

Numerous planters, were engrossed in tending to their carefully cultivated plants, delicately nurturing them. Others engaged in spirited discussions. The central hub of the association housed a repository of rare and exotic spiritual plants. Glass cabinets showcased specimens with ethereal glow captivating the onlookers. 

Ye Fan approached a sloppy old man sitting leisurely drinking, wearing a cloak woven from the leaves of some plant. The Old man's eyes are like those of a drunk, with a wine smell around. 

With a warm smile, the old man looked up at Ye Fan. "Ah, young one, what brings you here, do you want to buy Spiritual plants?" He chuckled, taking another sip from his drink.

"Greetings, Old man. I am Ye Fan, and I came here to become a Spiritual planter." Ye fan replied, the old man who heard what Ye fan said, that he was not here to buy showed some disappointment but still spoke. "Anyone can become a Spiritual planter nowadays; there are no strict requirements. But tell me, young one, are you sure this is the path you want to tread? It's not an easy journey, and it requires patience, dedication, and a deep connection with nature. Are you ready for such a commitment?" 

"Yes," Ye Fan replied, In the past, the requirements for becoming a spiritual planter were much more stringent. Only Spiritual Awakeners could tread this path, given their ability to interact with and control Spiritual plants using their heightened spiritual power. Physical Awakeners, with their comparatively lower spiritual power levels, found it challenging to effectively nurture these plants.

However, with the advancements in technology, the landscape has shifted. The stringent rules have been relaxed. Now, one doesn't necessarily need the ability to control Spiritual plants directly. Instead, technology has provided alternatives. Growth enhancement and other spiritual potions have become tools for cultivating Spiritual plants, making it accessible even to physical Awakeners. While controlling them might still be a challenge, growing them for various purposes has become a viable option.

The old man, still nursing his drink, nodded in agreement. "Aye, the times have changed. It's good to see young folks like yourself taking an interest in the art of spiritual planting. If you're determined, I'll guide you on the basics, but remember, patience is the key. Plants have their own pace and forcing them can lead to dire consequences."

Ye Fan, eager to absorb the wisdom of the experienced elder, expressed his gratitude. "Thank you, sir. I'm ready to learn."

The old man grinned, revealing a few missing teeth. "Good, good. First, you'll need to understand the different types of Spiritual plants and their requirements. Each has its quirks and preferences. Some thrive in moonlight, while others prefer the warmth of the sun. Some might even require a specific type of soil or water. Observing and adapting to these needs is the foundation of successful spiritual planting."

"But as a beginner, you won't be in touch with advanced Spiritual plants just yet. You need to start by learning. It's not just about the plants; you also need knowledge on how to prepare potions related to specific plants and understand spiritual runes if you want to control spiritual plants effectively." The old man's voice carried a tone of wisdom, as if the years spent in communion with nature had gifted him with insights that he now eagerly shared with Ye Fan.

The old man gestured for Ye Fan to sit beside him, patting the ground. "Come, young one, let's talk about the basics. Spiritual plants are not just ordinary flora; they are entities with their own consciousness."

Ye Fan settled down, listening intently to the old man's words. The old man continued, "Firstly, understanding the essence of Reiki is crucial. Reiki is the life force that permeates the world, and spiritual plants absorb and resonate with it. The better you comprehend and harness Reiki, the more successful you'll be in nurturing these plants."

The old man poured a small amount of his drink onto the ground, and to Ye Fan's surprise, a tiny sprout emerged. "Reiki is like water to a plant. It feeds and sustains them. You must attune yourself to the flow of Reiki around you."

Ye Fan nodded. The old man then proceeded to explain the significance of spiritual potions. "Potions act as supplements for spiritual plants, providing them with specific nutrients and energies they need. It's like giving them a balanced diet. As a planter, you must master the art of potion-making to ensure the optimal growth of your plants."

"The last piece of the puzzle is rune knowledge," the old man continued. "Runes are the language of the spiritual Masters. They communicate the intentions and desires of the planters to the spiritual plants. Each rune has a specific meaning and effect. Learning to inscribe and understand runes is essential for any planter who wishes to control the plants."

From what Ye Fan learned from the old man, grasping that the path to a successful Spiritual planter demanded mastery of Reiki, potion-making, and runic knowledge. The old man chuckled, noting the resolve in Ye Fan's eyes. "Are you ready, my young friend, to become a Spiritual Planter and communicate with the spirits of nature?"
