Chapter 162: The Spirit Farmer’s Five Elements Spells
However, Onix had other ideas about this. As the most honest and straightforward of the four siblings, Onix always felt that this woman was talking nonsense.
The final result was that Charmander learned Protect in half an hour, Tropius in two hours, and Milotic in two and a half hours.
Charmeleon next to them took three hours, Ralts took one hour, and only Onix couldn’t learn the Protect skill before the sun began to set.
It wasn’t that Onix was too stupid; in fact, Onix’s learning progress was normal for a Pokémon. Onix had very high qualifications but not much comprehension.
Compared to Charmander, it was like night and day.
However, Yao Yi Fei clearly had plenty of patience. After the lesson ended, Yao Yi Fei kindly said that they could continue tomorrow, but tomorrow they would add a new lesson: Milotic’s Contest Style.
Simply put, it was teaching Milotic how to use skills in a flashy way.
Wei was not interested in such flashy techniques. As a pure Fighting type trainer, in Wei’s eyes, coordinators were a deviation from the right path.
Milotic, on the other hand, was quite invested in the Contest Style. As a Pokémon that pursued beauty, the beauty of skills was also within Milotic’s pursuit.
Before the sun set, Lu Li took Tropius and the others to the orchard.
Onix’s Spirit Nourishing Technique was already proficient, and Lu Li also decided to Pokémonfy more of the spirit farming techniques.
In the cultivation world, spirit farmers who followed the path of spirit plants were generally cultivators with low qualification and mixed spiritual roots. Therefore, the farming techniques of spirit farmers could basically be summarized by five attributes.
These corresponded to the Five Elements: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.
Metal-type minor spells included: Golden Needle Technique, Golden Cut Technique…
Wood-type minor spells were: Growth, Spirit Infusion Technique, Spirit Drain Technique…
Water-type were: Spirit Rain Technique, Spirit Nourishing Technique, Water Poison Technique…
Fire-type were: Flame Conjuring Technique, Illumination Technique…
Earth-type were: Spirit Nourishing Technique, Earthquake, Fossilize Technique…
It’s worth mentioning that Flame Conjuring Technique was also a mandatory minor spell for alchemists.
Moreover, although some of these spells had damage, their lethality was not strong. Compared to skills in the Pokémon world, the lethality of these minor spells was almost negligible.
But these minor spells were functional spells in the first place, and their pursuit was naturally not about lethality.
For example, Golden Needle Technique was only used for killing insects, and Golden Cut Technique, not to mention, was used for harvesting wheat and rice.
Milotic could start learning Spirit Nourishing Technique. Spirit Nourishing Technique was a bit similar to Aqua Ring. Milotic had already learned Aqua Ring, so with a reference, Pokémonfying Spirit Nourishing Technique was much simpler.
As for Tropius, Spirit Drain Technique and Spirit Infusion Technique were closer in nature to Leech Seed. However, these two spells also involved life energy, so Pokémonfying them was quite difficult.
Therefore, Lu Li ranked them second, to be researched after Milotic’s Spirit Nourishing Technique was developed.
As for Charmander?
To be honest, whether it was for spirit farming or alchemy, they required more quality in fire-type abilities. Although there was a higher-level skill inheritance for Flame Conjuring Technique.
But the learning requirement for that spell was too high, and Lu Li didn’t think he could Pokémonfy it now, so Lu Li didn’t consider it at all, at least not in the short term.
Finally, there was Onix.
To be honest, Earthquake and Fossilize Technique wouldn’t be of much use even if Pokémonfied. Earthquake was not even a fraction as good as Earthquake, and Lu Li never thought about sinicizing it.
Because the main function of these two spells in the cultivation world was lethality, and they were born to kill insect eggs in the soil.
However, before that, they had to give the orchard a big treatment.
After scanning the entire orchard with his spiritual sense and confirming that the orchard had not been invaded by insects, Lu Li nodded in satisfaction.
Bao Bao had indeed not been lazy these past few days. She must have used her Psychic Power to regularly check the orchard’s condition every day, otherwise, the orchard wouldn’t be so clean.
Tropius also circled the orchard several times from above, inspecting its orchard, and after confirming that nothing unexpected had happened during its absence, Tropius contentedly landed beside Lu Li.
“You have to thank Bao Bao and the others properly. While we were away, Bao Bao took good care of our orchard,” Lu Li said with a smile.
Tropius nodded in agreement.
Glancing at the berries around Tropius’s neck, a bold idea suddenly flashed through Lu Li’s mind.
Spirit Infusion Technique might be the key to whether Tropius could harvest rare berries through its ability!
After all, the most important thing for rare berries was actually the spiritual essence within them. Thinking of this, Lu Li quickly shared his guess with Tropius.
Since it hadn’t learned Spirit Infusion Technique yet, Tropius didn’t offer any opinion.
“Tro~”
I believe the trainer’s guess.
Tropius chose to blindly believe Lu Li’s idea.
“It seems we need to speed up the Pokémonfication of Spirit Infusion Technique,” Lu Li said excitedly.
Tropius nodded, then chirped again.
“Tro~”
Trainer, I’ve discovered that some fruit trees in the orchard have started to bloom.
“So soon?” Lu Li was also a bit surprised, considering these fruit trees were planted less than two months ago.
Tropius nodded affirmatively.
“Are the conditions of those fruit trees normal?” Lu Li asked worriedly.
“Tro~”
They are all very healthy, unbelievably healthy.
Hearing this, Lu Li finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Normally, this was not the season for blooming. Faced with something so extraordinary, Lu Li had to remain vigilant.
“Never mind, let’s not think about it too much. Let’s begin,” Lu Li urged.
Onix, who had been eager to try, looked intently at the orchard.
Onix: Special Ground Force activated!
Milotic: Spirit Rain Technique activated!
Tropius: Special Growth activated! Special Grassy Terrain activated!
As the three Pokémon activated their special abilities, the entire orchard was instantly enveloped in dense life energy.
Grass-type energy, Water-type energy, Earth-type energy, and life energy combined perfectly, making the entire orchard vibrant.
At the same time, under the infusion of such abundant energy, some ordinary fruit trees began to rapidly form buds and bloom. Ordinary fruit trees took a month from budding to blooming, but here it took almost just a few breaths.
Standing outside the orchard, Lu Li took a deep breath.
Looking at the orchard before him, Lu Li thought of a unique term from the cultivation world – Blessed Land!
“I’ve essentially created a Blessed Land through Pokémon,” Lu Li murmured to himself.
…………
After finishing the lesson, Yao Yi Fei, who was lying in the living room reading, suddenly looked down at the Poké Ball at her waist.
Seeing the constantly trembling Poké Ball, Yao Yi Fei released the Pokémon inside.
“Vespiquen? What’s wrong?” Yao Yi Fei asked nervously.
Vespiquen excitedly pointed its stinger towards the direction of the orchard, emitting a buzzing sound.
“You want to go there?” Yao Yi Fei asked with a frown.
Vespiquen nodded excitedly.
“What’s there?” Yao Yi Fei asked.
“Flowers! Very high-quality flowers!” Vespiquen quickly replied.
Vespiquen only buzzed, and it was Espeon next to her who translated.
“Flowers of exceptionally high quality?” Yao Yi Fei looked towards the orchard with some surprise.
“Lu Li seems to have gone in that direction. That place seems to be the orchard…”
Thinking of this, Yao Yi Fei’s brow furrowed.
“Are you sure it’s flowers? This is not the season for fruit trees to bloom,” Yao Yi Fei asked.
Vespiquen nodded with certainty.
High-quality nectar was crucial for Vespiquen and her tribe.
As everyone knows, Combee and Vespiquen can produce Honey by collecting nectar after nesting together.
Honey’s price is above that of high-quality berries but below Pokémon Items, and Honey is a supplement for both Pokémon and humans.
However, above Honey, there is another special type of honey: Royal Jelly, which can only be brewed by extremely high-quality nectar and Vespiquen.
Royal Jelly is no less than a Pokémon Secret Treasure for Bug-type Pokémon, and even for ordinary Pokémon, especially those in their growth stage, Royal Jelly is an invaluable tonic, with effects almost equivalent to Pokémon Items.
As Vespiquen’s trainer, Yao Yi Fei knew a secret that only Vespiquen trainers knew: Vespiquen could improve her own qualifications by consuming large amounts of Royal Jelly.
Most importantly, this improvement has no upper limit!
However, high-quality nectar was extremely rare in this world. Even if high-grade nectar was hard to come by in advanced secret realms, it was even more so in the real world.
After all, the birth of high-grade nectar was linked to the environment, not the level of berries.
Vespiquen’s qualification was only at Gym Level, and the average qualification of Bug-type Pokémon was the lowest among the eighteen major attributes.
A Vespiquen with Gym Level qualification was already quite high. If it were another attribute, it might be Heavenly King Level.
“Should I go take a look?” Yao Yi Fei thought, somewhat tempted.
After hesitating for a moment, Yao Yi Fei gritted her teeth and said to Espeon next to her, “Take me to the orchard.”
Having made her decision, Yao Yi Fei put away Vespiquen.
Espeon activated Teleport.
Lu Li felt a strong psychic fluctuation and initially thought Bao Bao had arrived. However, upon seeing Yao Yi Fei, Lu Li was only slightly surprised.
Lu Li did not show any displeasure at Yao Yi Fei’s uninvited visit. As his guardian, it was only a matter of time before Yao Yi Fei discovered the secret of the orchard.
Now that she had discovered it herself, it was actually a good thing, saving him the trouble of further explanations.
Lu Li was fortunate that Yao Yi Fei arrived late and did not witness the scene of the three Pokémon activating their special skills, which was the secret Lu Li did not want to expose.
“Hiss~ You made the orchard…”
Yao Yi Fei looked at the orchard before her with immense shock. The attribute energy was almost liquid; it was too outrageous!
Even the legendary Primordial Secret Realm couldn’t have such a field environment, right?
Yao Yi Fei had orchards at home, and many of them, as the main source of Combee was various nectars, which energy cubes couldn’t replace. Therefore, Yao Yi Fei had established several orchards and gardens around Aoki Gym.
